coal accounts could be entirely closed. ;
tuch a desideratum, however, will be
reached only by burning wood waste
under those scientific conditions which
will insure the maximum value being

of the material is such that it can be j
best burned outside of the boiler in an

Jpwi or Jewelsf
Dr. Madison C. refers, in his newly
published "The Jews In America,"
says that "not jewels, but Jews, wore
the real financial basis of the first ex

"Dr. Kayserliug has, beyond a doubt,
pointed out that two Marranos, or se

uable jewels to fit out Columbus for

that she had already pawned or sold
them to defray tbe expenses of tha

Dr. Kayserling clearly shows that tbe
jewel story is false and mythical. Ia

extending from 1491 to 1493, Santangel

Catarrh Cannot be Cured.
When London Sheriffs Ate Gooae,
Thavie's inn, in Ilolborn, a nice quiet

Thavie was an armorer of the time of
Edward III., probably a Welshman and
In all likelihood a "Davie" and perhaps

The city bailiffs would run them In

a sharp lookout for forestallers and re

bargains. Thus in 1375, one day after
dinner, John Clerk, a poulterer, met
John Spencer, "with twenty-two geese

He was adjudged a forestaller, and the
geese were forfeited to the use of the

Marriage of CoaagmptlTCi.
The marriage of the tuberculous Is
perhaps frowned upon by all physi
cians, the majority of whom would no
doubt advocate the prohibition of such
unions. It is considerable of a sur
prise, then, to learn that Dr. Charles
Valentino of Paris has declared that
these marriages are desirable. He
bases his opinion upon the well known
fact that the disease Itself Is rarely If
ver transmitted and that there Is an
Immunity possessed by many of the
offspring of tbe tuberculous. He shows
that, though this Infection Is more fre
quent about the age of twenty. Its ap
pearance in those of tuberculous par

somewhere between thirty-five and fif

partner alone is infected tbe other Is
contaminated in 16 per cent of the

Why Don t I lomeseekers Come To Morrow
County?
Morrow county p of'uces more wealth per capita than any other county in
the state of Oregon. Cm territory within county lines is 75 miles in length by 3
n.iles in width, lare enough for a state, but with not enough population for a good
izeii country village. Only fiOOO people in the county.
Every year we pre w about 1,000,000 bushels of wheat. This is worth abou
8700,000.
We haye about 225.100 head of sheep worth about $5(52,000, after shearing
while tha wool from th 'Be sheep will sell for SuGO.OOO. Then thuie are horses and
cattle worth at east a ha f a million more.
These ate the main items In the wealth producers.
It don't take mu ih figuring when yon look at these figures to come to the
conclusion that Morrow county people make some money. We have the soil, the
dirnate and the goods to make good.
Morrow county's din-ate is pleasant and healthful.
Morrow couuty peop.e are prosperous. Morrow county people have money.
Here in the town of Hepj tier we have two banks. The First National in publish
ed statements shows deposits running from half a mil. ion dollars up. Both bank
have a big business. Heppner can show tha largest bank deposits of any town o
its size in the Northwest, and it should be remembered that Lexington, nine ini!e&
awBy, and lone, 18 miles from Heppner both have banks doing a good business.
This looks like Morrow county people have money.
But look here, almost half the population of Morrow county reside in tha
towns. This leaves only between 3,000 and 4,000 people in a territory 75 miles in
leneth by 35 miles in wealth. Don't you think there is room for more people.
Ten or twelve years ago land in Morrow county went begging Bt from $100 to
$250 for a quarter section.
Five years ago this land had looked up to $6.00 and $7.00 per acre. Today
this land is woith $15 per acre with a few of tbe choicest lots some times bringing
$20 per acre. Now tbe old timers are wondering why they did not take advantage
of this cheap land. They could have made a barrel of money.
Over in the adjoining couoty of Umatilla wheat lands today are worth from
$50 to $75 an acre. Ou the other side of us is Sherman county with wheat lands
selling from $25 up. Here we are between with just as good land land at $15 per
acre. Our lands are sure to go up in price. Id a few years the people here will
be again wondering why they did not buy some of this $15 land. The proposition
is the same now as it was a few vears ago, but it takes more mouey. Last year
and year before a number of good farmers bought wlie.it lands and paid f r it
with the first crop.
Come to Morrow county and investigate this land business.
