They look like a feather bed with a string tied around it, and whenever they go out in the yard on a windy day they look like a bal loon ascension." Mr. and Mrs. William Kit tridge returned Tuesday from Ashland, where they had been at the bedside of the former's mother, who has been danger ously ill at that place. She is gradually improving, however, and the news was gladly received in Corvallis, where the lady has many friends. The South Bend, Ind., watch people are" exhibiting, in the show window at Pratt's Jewelry store, a watch encased in a solid chunk of ice, which is expected to keep perfect time under all extremes, of either heat or cold. It will be tested for a week and seems to be knocking off the' time in good shape. Edwin II. Pratt packed his grip on Thursday and started to San Francisco, with.' a view of spreading business sails accord ing to the dictates of his own conscience. Edwin is a bright, active young man, of good moral character, ever attentive to busi ness and his many friends will be pleased to hear a good report from him. The Oregon State Dairy Asso ciation has been recognized by the Agricultural Department at Washington, T). C, and assur ance is given that Government experts will participate in the convention on December 10th, and 11th at Salem.

Mrs, Charles Lunt was recently appointed president of the Aid. Reports here are to the effect that work has been resumed on the . Corvallis & Alsea railroad and one and one half miles of track will be laid at once in or der that the; road may be ex tended to Monroe.,. I Millions of feet of lumber can be readily reached along this line and the value of such an achievement in this part of the - valley cannot easily be estimated. , " r1 .; .. " -ii i -'f-'ti. .f The -chorus choir,"under; the supervision of Revr Davis, met at the Baptist chureh on Tuesday night and elected the following officers : President, Mrs. Pink erton ; Vice President, Grover Cate ; Sec. and Treas.

Buildings are being construct ed so rapidly in Corvallis that it is hard work' to' keep tab on all of them. Mr. Chappell has a new eight room house ready for plastering, located on';8th, be tween -Madison and Jefferson, and we never caught site of it until yesterday. An old settler paid a visit to a friend in Jobs' addition the other day for the first time in three months and he had to ask the neighbors which house the friend lived in. While climbing the stairs from the cellar, Tuesday morn ing, Mrs. Evan P. Hughes fell, striking her side against a stick of wood which she carried under her right arm, causing her in tense pain. Dr. Farra was called to examine the injured lady and stated that only severe bruises had resulted, although it was at tirst presumed that she had broken a rib. Mrs. Hughes is resting comfortably at present and it is hoped she will soon re cover. Dr. Withycombe has looked up the records and finds not one girl graduate of the Oregon Ag ricultural College who has. fig ured as complainant or defend ent in a divorce proceeding. The credit goes to the domestic science branch of the Doctor's excellent school. The young woman who is taught how to do it can keep the male brute in good humor, and that is all there is to it. We assume that female graduates of the Agricultural College get married like other women. v Miss M.
