HACK FKOK SOBIB AFRICA.
G. W. f-laytoo Rc-turnR From a Visit to
Johannesburg.
G. W. Slavton. of Prineville, who
spent the past two years at Johannes-
burg, South Africa, has returned to
Oresron. quite well satisfied that
America is a good country iu which to
live. Mr. Slavton was attracted to
Africa by the allurements of the gold
fields, and says ior big investments
and gigantic schemes that country is
all right,though when be left thf-re last
May business was quite dull, tbe bottom
having dropped out of the boom, aud
transactions had settled down to
normal state.
Mr. Slayton stales that American
products, such as Hour, lumber and
some coarse grades of goods.are promt
nent in Johannrsourg markets, and
considerable American machinery is
sold in the African mining? dirtricts
There is, he says, a genernl belief in
Africa that Pacific const fruits, are in
ferior. and thus we r.re deprived of a
good trade in that line that could be
secured if thinners would exercise
more care in packing. If our fruit?
were put on the market in a shape to
suit the trade, it would be but a short
time until it would be in demand.
Knronrage the Firemen.
There is hardly a city in the state of
equal size that has so well equipped
fire department as 1 be Dalles, or so
efficient firemen, and it is all import
ant to property owners that the de
partment shall renrtiin thus efficient.
Espeicallj during the summer months,
when a spark might cause a disas
trous conaflsration, should tbe depart
ment be at its best. The apparatus is
alwavs in an excellent condition but
the firemen lack familiarity in hand
ling it. The Times-Mountaineer
would suggest as an inducement to tbe
firemen to become mo-e efficient, that
a pur?e be hung by tbe property own
ers each month for a competitive drill.
Thus the firemen would be esieouarged
by tbe good will shown by citizens,
and through a drill evsry month
where tbe competition would be brisk
between all the companies, the men
would become proficient in the use of
their apparatruses.
Launching of the Dulles City.
An attempt was made Thursday to
launch the steamer Dalles City which
is being rebuilt at Supples'shipyard in
Portland, but with little success.
Everything was in readiness and when
the word was given to cut the ropes,
the axes fell and the stern gradually
slid down the ways while tlit, how re
mained stationery. This was caused
by the weight being in the after part
of the boat while the bow was com
paratively free from weight. The
steamer shifted to the port side and
for a while it was thought she would
toppie over, but work was immediately
begun on her and she was placed in a
secure position. No damage whatever
was done to the steamer and in all
probability she will be in readiness to
be launched this evening, after which
she will be taken to the Willamette
Iron Works, where her boilers will be
placed in position.

R. C. Judson, industrial agent for
tbe O. R. & N. Co., is desirous of mak
ing an exhibit of Oregon grains both
at Omaha and Portland, and requests
tbe farmers of Wasco county to supply
him with samples. He wants thegrain
as it comes from the field and tied in
iarge bundles so that it will -show both
tbe straw and grain. Each bundle
will be labeled with the grower's Dame
acd postoffice address. Samples left
at the O. II. & N. depot in Tbe Dalles
will be forwarded to the head office at
Portland. This is a splendid opportu
nity for advertising the resources of
Wasco county, and it is hoped that
every farmer who has some fine speci
mens will briDg them in. Don't let
your light burn under a bushel but
put it out where it can be seen by the

Fine Fruit Prospects.
Emile Schanno, member of tbe
state board of horticulture, bas re
turned from a tour through portions
of Gilliam county, where he had been
on a tour of inspection of the orchards.
He found the fruit prospects on Rock
creek exceptionally good, and the
quality of fruitfully up to the standard.
The orchards are generally thrifty,
and have no disease except scale in a
few orchards.
Mr. Schanno says Rock creek valley
is one of the finest in Eastern Oregon.
It is about twenty miles long, and con
tains many fine farms. Tbe soil is
very, productive, and there is an
abundance of water for irrigating,
produces immense crops of alfalfa, the
meadows bi-ing cut twice every season.
Were there any facilities for transpor
tation, he says it would become a great
fruit growing section.

simply because the combination won'twork.
A sick man is in very much the same fix
about getting at the nourishment he needs
to keep him alive. There is plenty of Rrood
food at hand, bnt his digestive organism is
out of order; the nutritive "combination"
of his system won't work. He can't doss!
bly get at the nourishment contained in the
rood. He takes it into his stomach, but it
does him no good. It isn't made into good
blood. He is lust as badly off as if the
iooo. was locKea up wnere ne conicin't touch
it He gets no strength or health out of it.
All these mal-nutritive conditions have a
perfect and scientific remedy in Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. It onts the nu
tritive "combination" of the system into
perfect working order. It gives the diges
tive and blood - making organs power to
make pure. red. healthy blood, and norr it
into the circulation abundantly and rapidly
It drives out all bilious poisons and scrof
lllous germs, cures indigestion, liver com
plaint, nervousness and neuralgia, and
builds up solid flesh, active power and
nerve force. -
