GROCERIES ARE AN ABSOLUTE
necessity to every human being.
From the day you' enter the world
until the day you leave it you have
to patronize, directly or indirectly, some
grocery store. You have to cat to keep
alive. Among the earliest lessons taught
in life is a regard for your diet, by select
ing only fresh and wholesome food, and a
regard for your purse by practicing the well
established rules of economy. We can sell
you fresher and better goods and more of
them for cash than you can buy elsewhere
on open account. Look over our stock,
get our prices, and be convinced.

"If there are any mossbacks In

home filled with admiration for the
exhibits he saw at .Salem. "The peo
ple of the Willamette valley proved
by the stae fair that they are progres

best stock In the country. When
strung into line the horses and cattle
on exhibit made a solid line complete

That the fair management Is en

of the fair this year Is dwiared by
the doctor, who has visited juany of
the state fairs of the country. Like

phenomenal. On one day alone there
was an attendance of 32.000 this year,

Resided nt Home of Her Son William

Thirty Y'ears Deceased Came o
Oregon In 1877 Is Survived by
Two Children, Roth Living Here.
Mrs Jennette A. Duff, aged 82
years, 3 months and 22 days, died
this morning about 8 o'clock, at the
home of her son. William Duff, six
miles northeast of Pendleton. Death
was due to a complication of trou
bles, Incident to old age.
Mrs. Duff was born In North Car
olina, but came with her husband to
the Willamette valley in 1877. Two
years later they moved to eastern
Oregon, where they established their
home. The husband, David Duff,
died six years ago nt the age of 83
years
The deceased Is survived by two
chlldrn, William Duff, who resides on
his farm, and Mrs. Grant Elgin of this
rlty.
Funeral services will be conducted
at the home of William Duff tomor
row at 10 o'clock by Rev. W. L. Van
Xuys, pastor of the Fresbyterlan
church, while Interment will be In
Olney cemetery.
FiiihtiiI of Mrs. Bean.
Funeral services' for the late Mrs.
J. K. Rean were conducted this morn
ing at the Church of the Redeemer,
by the rector, Kev. Charles Quinney.
Many friends were In attendance and
i'ceompanled the remains to Olney
cemetery, where they were interred.
The meeting of the Thursday Af
ternoon club, which was to have been
held at the homo of the president,
Mrs. C. J. Smith, on September 24,
has been postponed until October 8
In respect t othe memory of Mrs. J.
B. Mean.
No member has been more closely
identified with the history ami sue
cess of the club than Mrs. Rean. She
helped her sister, the late Miss Rell
Bishop, In arranging the program for
the first club meeting some 18 years
ago. Ifer Interest and enthusiasm
have never waned, though she has
often prepared notes while unable to
be out of bed.
Cifted with a brilliant mind, an
appreciation of the highest and best
In literature and nrt, together with a
keen sense of the rejuvenating effect
of humor, the club loses In Mrs. Rean
not only a beloved friend, but a most
efficient worker. With deep sympa
thy for the family, the Thursday af
ternoon club mourns a vacancy that
can not be replaced, yet with a real
ization that the lost member has gain
ed "that peace which the world can
not give."
Mr. nnd Mrs. W. S. Ryers, among
the oldest pioneers' of thl sclty, cele
brated their golden wedding anniver
sary yesterday. Mr. Ryers Is 75,
while the woman who became his life
partner 50 years ago, Is 72. Roth are
hale and hearty, however, and neither
look to be that old.
"You must have taken good care
of yourself to be so well preserved at
this age," said a reporter to the pio
neer flour mill man this morning.
"Well, I have been In the milling
business for 60 years and have work
ed hard all my life. For about 40
years of that time I worked 18 hours
a day," was the reply.
It would therefore seem that when
Mr. Ryers finally does quit It will be
because he has worn out and not
rusted out.
Mr. Ryers first entered the flour
mill business 60 years ago In the
state of Pennsylvania. He later came
to Walla Walla where he established
a mill and conducted It for six years
before coming to Pendleton, where
he has been for the past 33 years.
The first mill erected here had a
capacity of 50 barrels per day. He
kept adding to this each year until a
few years ago when the mills burned
down they had a capacity of GOO bar
800 barrels every 2 4 hours The
brick mills are capable of turning out
S00 bat.Hs every 2 '4!iours. The
present mill Is not the largest In the
tate, but It Is one of the finest built
and arranged and turns out about as
much flour as the lurger mills In
Portland for the reason that the plant
is kept busy night nnd day the year
round.
When Ryers completed the work of
erecting l.ls first little mill in Pen
dleton he looked around and counted
Just 50 buildings in the city. That
included dwelling houses, barns and
every other structure worthy the
name of building. It will thus be
seen that the lives of Mr. anil Mrs.
Myers have been closely associated
with the life and growth of the city
of Pendleton.
This pioneer couple only have two
children living. They are Mrs. Sophia
McComas anil (!us Ryers, both of this
city.
A pleasing feature of the flouring
mill business as conducted by Mr.
Ryers Is the fact that he has no com
mission house to handle his flour,
employs no traveling salesmen and
yet has orders on hand in excess of
the output of his mill at all times. A
large part of th Ryers flour Is ship
ped to the orient, but owing to the
low stage of the river the mill cannot
be operated at full capacity now and
the entire output of the plant Is
needed to supply the local, Portland,!
Los Angeles, San Francisco and Se
attle markets.
