ing good progress iu their work
The school house is a good one
the furniture is in good condition
there is a fair blackboard and the
blackboard space is ample. The
school is provided with a globe, one
m ip, and a set of physiologic
charts. There is a dictionary, but
it is old and dilapidated. There
should be a new one. There are
shades for most of the windows,
but some of them are out of repair
There are some appropriate decor
ations on the walls. The floor was
neat and clean, notwithstanding
the fact that the snow and dust had
bf-en mixed so as to form a mud in
the yard. The register nhows very
ew visitors. The patrons would
fiud a visit greatly appreciated by
the teacher and pupils.
In District Xo. 21, we found
Miss Ilena Horner very busy at
woik with 21 pupils. Seven grades
are represented. The pupils seem
to bo energetic aud studious. This
is a district of magnificent distances,
and nearly all the pupils must eith
er ride or drive to Bchool. The
echotd house is new. The desks
ere of the latest pattern. The black
board is of the very best, one that
must be a delight to teacher and
pupils. There are a few small
maps provided. There should be
a dictionary for the school. The
walls are decorated with a few ex
cellent pictures and 6ome appropri
ate mottoes. The school has a
large, well made flag. If a porch
were built in front of the Bchool
house, the janitor would have an
easipr task.
JMiss Marvel Miller teaches the

In District No. 11, we found Mies
Julia Forbes teaching in the placa
of the regular teacher, Mrs. Carrie
Becket, who i-. sick. The school
house is old aud does not present a
very inviting appearance on the
uuiniuu, uiu wunin everything is
cheerful. The walls and ceiling are
painted in mild tints which are not
only pleasing to the taste but aleo
reflect the light iu n manner which
is restful to the eyes. The walls
are tastily decorated with appropri
ate pictures and small flags. The
windows are provided with shades
and neat sash curtains. The desks
are up-to-date, some of them being
adjustable. The pupils may have
a desk the right height for writing
and a sent which will permit the
feet to rest upon the floor. There
is a good blackboard, but there
should be mora of it. A dictionary
a set of physiological charts, and
some excellent maps are provided.
There aro towels and a wash-basin.
The pupils aie quiet, orderly, at

of th-s district take much pride in

Bluestem wheat is selling; as high
as a bushel at tidewa'er. This
is the price received during the
past few daj b for a lot in the north
land while nothing huhr than flGc
a bushel has been paid at Portland
thus far it is not likely tint any
more wheat of this grade can be
secured here under the do'hr mark.
This is the highest price reached
for wheat iu this market for a num.
ber of 3 ears although during sev
eral seasons the price has advanced
to within a cent or two of the mark
for a small lot of slec'ed stock.
A sale of a let of bluestem is re
ported made to a Srokane mill on
a basi3 of about 93!c a Lushel tide
water and even at that r rie it is
stated that not a sufficient amount
could be secured to f-uit thi buyer.

uiuestem wnear is getting very
scarce iu the IYeiUc northwest and
before the season is over it is quite
likely that Pacific coast milleis will
be forced to substitute some other
grade for their best fl .ur because
there will not baa sufficient amount!
of bluestem to qo brouud. For
that reason the millers are now
scrambling for the remaining sup
plies and t !-.e price may b e.ik a fe v
records btfo;e the end appears in
sight.
The high price of bluestem wheat
which is used in the making of the
best patent flour in the Pacific
northwest, will very likely ca iso
an upward inrv-rnerit iu p.it :nt
liefore many days have elapd.
The extent of the advance has not
yet been figured up.m but miller
all agree that they will b- creed to
put the market up because they
cannot grind the whjat for lesa
The failure of the orient to get beck
into the Pacific coast flour market
for reasonable supplies, has added
further strength to the price of lo
cal grades. While millfeed.s am
high and help somewhat iu holding
the price of local flour down, there
is not enough flour grinding j ist
uow to make much difference or
this account. It is generally fhj
rule for local flour to bo low wheu
there is plenty of export business
and prices are good but at tha
time there is neither good priefs
nor demand for t.x port goods so the
burden must ftl upon the local
market. Orpnrnr, JoMl-nil.

What the Kidneys Do.
Their unceasing work keeps us strong
and healthy.
All the biood in the body passes
through the kidneva oore every three
.ninutes. The kidneys filter the blood
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of impure matter daily, when unhealthy
soma part of this impu e matter is left
in the blood. This brings on many dis
eases and symptoms pain in the back,
neauacne, nervousness, not, dry ekin,
rheumatism, gout, gravel, disorders of
the ejesight and hearing, e!c.
Mrs Geo. Shipley living in the north
einpartof Heppner, Ore., says : "My
kidneys gave me a great deal of annoy
ance for years. My back ached acutely
and when I stooped or lifted anything,
or hrouaht any strain on the muscles of
the b ck. the pains would become more
pronounced. At timps I could not rest
well on account of the pains through
my kidnevs and there were so mnv
0 her symptoms which denoted a dis
ordered condition of these organs that
