Wg IVatst Your Business For less Prof. Curtis Gives Oregon Live Stock Industry A Boost. Business men returning from the East are unanimous in pre dicting an enormous immigration to Oregon during the coming year. People residing in the great cities of New York, Chica go, Brooklyn. Philadelphia, Bos ton, Pittsburg, Cincinnati, and other population centers never expressed so much anxiety to bear about this country as at present and the same idea is re flected in correspondence of the Portland Commercial Club much of which is originating in the cities named above. Judge John M. Scott, of Salem, President of the State Good Roads Association, is conducting an active campaign in behalf of the Good Roads Meeting to be held in the rooms of the Portland Commercial Clnb November 14, and 15. Judge Scott desires that every comfnerical, industrial agricultural, horticultural, and irrigation organization in the state to send delegates. President Ed T. Juddofthe Oregon State Dairy Association, reports constantly increasing in terest in the big state meeting to be held in Portland December 12, and 13. Constant additions are being made to the prizes, and an active committee is at work. It is desired above everything else that the farmers be present on this occasion. Oregon never receiveda stiong- er endorsement than the follow ing Ircm the pen of Professor Charles Curtis, of the Ames, Iowa, Agricultural College. "There is nowhere on the face of the globe a land or people so dominant in the improvement of live stock or so potent in the pro duction of 'he highest types of domestic animals as the British Islands. There is nowhere on the American continent a region affording conditions so closely allied to those of Great Britain as on the North Pacific Coast of the United States. The similar ity is noticeable, not only in cilmatic conditions and natural environment, bu. also in the gen uine enthusiasm and deep-seated faith in the industry possessed by tillers ot the soil." The Commercial Club has em ployed Mr. John Hartog, of Call fornia, to take charge of their publicity campaign at a salary of $5000 a year. Mr. Hartog will be an important factor in the developnieut of OregoD, for Cali fornia has never developed a brighter man in the advertise ing line. An exhibit of samples of the iron ore irom Columbia county is promised at the Portland Com mercial Club this week. The development of oil in Western Idaho and Eastern Oregon is bringing absolutely new capiial and new peop that no other in dustry would have attracted. as wide publicity as, possible and to post a copv ot this letter in a conspicuous place in your office. "The Cow-Puncher Tonight. "In a shallow gTave just six by three, where the cyote howls and the wind blows free, Oh, bury me not on the lone prairie," is one of the songs sung in "The Cow-Puncher" to be seen at the opera house tonight. This play is full of the atmosphere and local color of the very heart of that grand and picturesque state, Arizona. , There is life, move ment, animation and absorbing interest in every act. The ad vance sale of seats has been un usually large. 1 About Homesteads. All persons interested in gov ernment lands will be glad to obtain the information contained in the following selt-explantory letter received- from the General Land Office, Department of the Interior.. It says: You are directed to at once inform all newspapers in your respective districts, as a matter of news, that in all cases where homestead entries are made af;ei November r, 1937, commutation proofs must show actual and cLn tinuous bona fide residence for th?fuii period of fourteen mo;u!is. Ia all cases where tne enirit-i-were made before November 1 iQ7, tbe rule heretofore existing that six months constructive rr-.i decce following the date o- eatry will be c msidered as a par the required fourteen m-ortb-of residence, will remain in farce. You are directed to give thr.- tn liter immediate attention and Additional Local. Complaints are being aeDt the news papers in aurroarjdinn towns of a new grafter at work among tbe farmers. The fellow is a smooth individual who is trav eling around tbe country in an ontfit that resembles a huckstering wagon. He goes to tbe farmer's house and asks the wife if she has chickens for sale. Every farmer's i wife always has some chickens for sal. He asks to see them aad at once discov ers that the entire flock is suffering with some new disease that no one ever heard f except "Mr. Grafter." He tells tbe lady he has a remedy for this particular disease and in exchange for some ot her best looking chickens be leaves her a package ot his remedies which prove to be worthless and on the deaf he is just ahead tbe chickens he secured in the ex change. Watch out for the rascal, for he is working this way. Have the bull pap handy when yon see the description com ing, and he will doubtless do the rest. Herald. . Meat, bread, butter, milk, flour, can ned and fresh fruits are all to cost the average voter from fifteen to forty per cent more this fall and winter than thtv ever cost him before. Only two things are to be sold throughout the country at last 5 ear's prices tea and coffee. On everything thing else thxt eoes to the table the man of average income will find his purchasing poorer lessened a third. Ex.

Time to Call a Halt Before a Pan ic Comes. The business spirit is crushing out the sweeter element of home life. We are in danger of a great commercial decline, be cause men, as a whoie, think only of get ting wea'th. There are thousands, bath men and omen, who do not take time to eat prop erty. They rush through life, and as a result we have an age of indigestion, m-rvongness, irritability, sleepless nights an 1 morose dispositions. With the discovery of. Mi-o-na tablet;?, there is no longer any excuse for one to have ill health from stomach weakness. Mi-o-na strengthens the walls of the stomach, stimulates secretion of the di gestive juices, regulates the liver and re stores muscnlar contraction to tte intes tines and bcwels, so no laxative is need ed. Sick headache?, palpitation, bad tusie in the month, yellow skin, irritability, coated tongue and melancholy are a few of the many distressing results of indiges tion. Mi-o-na never fails to dispel all thess troubles. SGrabam & Wells sell Mi o-na in 59-cent boxes, and guarantee to refund the money ii thS remedy does cot give complete satisfaction. 89-91 White Sewing Machines, We have secured the atrencv fo thn celebra'ed" White Se ing Machines.

They are -still in the wheat business in Eastern Oregon, ac cording to Vance Taylor, who returned from Condon, Tuesday. ' "Along the railroad track, every little ways, there is a long plat form and on this there are wheat sacks often piled 40 sacks high," said Mr. Taylor in telling of his trip. 1 he weather is warm and dry at Condon, the dust is blow ing aud threshing is still in progress. "There are no good buildings at Condon," was the Corvallis man's statement, " as everyone puts up a 'shack that will last while he is making a stake and then he leaves and goes to a pleasanter climate." There is no timber to break the monotony of the landscape and the eye tires of the flat land to be seen for miles in all directions. "But there is plenty of money there, and when a fellow takes his best girl out to anything that is going on in the way of enter tainment he always blows from $10 to $10 for her, and that is why some Corvallis girls who are there say they will never re turn to this city," said Mr. Tay lor. Price is no object with residents of that section and they are liber al , with their cash. But the Wil lamette Valley looks better than ever before to Vance since his visit to this great wheat section.
