Oregon Senator lias back. Serious Set- Washingten, Feb. 7. Senator Mitchell has not made material progress this week, in fact on Friday he bad a serious set-back, but today is again on the road to recovery. n Monday last the Senator left his room and took dinner in the hotel dining-room. He also attempted to look after some of his official business, and apparently over taxed his strength, for, except for 6hort periods, he has not been out of bed during the remainder of the week. His long confinement in bed has very great ly weakened his condition, and it is Blowly indeed that he recovers his strength. For the past week or more he has has practically no more stomach or bowel trouble and suffers none except from confinement. The Seuator's physician has insisted all along that Senator Mitchell was steadily improving and tonight told The Oregonian correspondent that the "Sen ator would be out some time the follow ing week." This is the same statement he made a week ago, and the week pre ceding. For all that, Senator Mitchell does no appear to be gaining strength as rapidly as was hoped. It is his weak ness that is now his greatest ailment, and his insistence upon work appears to retard his progress. 9'riti ill- EI.-irveli!Mv Ice. Pi ineviile, Or., Feb..")

Waters spent last week in terviewing some of our big woolgrowers ascertaining their views on the ad visability of putting in a sheepshearing machine to remove the wool of this section, says the Burns Times-Herald. He found that all favored the move and has the pledge of enough sheepmen to justify the establishment of the enter prise and Mr. Waters and Jenkins Bros, are arranging to have two Cooper Sheep shearing Machine plants in readiness for the spring shearing. It is claimed that these machines are not only rapid, but will takeoff at least two, pounds more wool to the sheep than by hand, besides taking all dirt off the animal whioh is of material benefit to its health. These plants will have a capacity of three thousand head per day acd will enable the sheep men to finish their shearing in a much shorter time and get their sheep away quickly to summer range. No doubt the promoters will have a good and prosperous business from the start. The plant will be so arranged that they can be moved from place to place. Gasoline engines will be used for power.
