It's a fact All black hosiery is dyed by what is known as the ."oxidized" process, which means nothing less than a "burn ing" process. That's exactly why even the best stockings you can buy often "go wrong." Armor Plate Hosiery is not dyed by this burning process. The manufactur ers have been working for years trying to produce a dye that would not burn the hosiery, and they have just perfected such a dye which they have called "Harms Naut Dye." It harms neither the hosiery nor the skin. The original strength of every yarn in Armor Plate Hosiery is retained. Hence the wearers have the assurance of the most serviceable and long lived hosiery ever manufactured. For the Entire Family V . Armor Plate Hosiery is just as good for the woman who ex . pects service from a light-weight gauze stocking as it is for the boy who must have a stocking that will stand the ' strain and wear. Ii you want to cut your hosiery bill in half, in sist upon Armor Plate Hosiery every time and -for all the family. We carry in stock all the de sirable sizes, ftyles and weights. Let us show you hosiery satisfaction and economy. Look for the Yellow Ticket W. J. Funk & Co.

APPLEGATE, Notary Public . Collections made. Real Estate bought and sold and all business FUTURE FORTUNES LIE IN ACREAGE MONEY IN TIMBER, LOGGED OFF AND FRUIT LAND RATHER THAN CITY LOTS. Seattle, March 11. There Is more money being Invested today in tim ber, fruit lands aid logged-off lands In Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and British Columbia than ever before ln the history of the Northwest. One reason advanced for this by lecal capitalists Is that such investments offer greater inducements la the way of furtune making than does Investments In city property. There was a time (when men with money tor good speculations turned to such cities as Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane, Portland and other large cities of the Northwest, but now prices have reached that state where there Is no longer any chance to speculate. The man with the big fortune can continue to buy city realty. Im prove It and make money, but he with a small fortune, which It is hoped to double or tiiple, must look elsewhere than the cities if he .wants to be successful. Shrewd business men. with an eye to the future do not hesitate to say that the fortunes of the future will come from the tim ber, logged-off lands and fruit lands of the Northwest During the past few weeks a number of rich Seattle men have Invested heavily ln Ore gon and Idaho lands and they say they are more than pleased with their Investments. It is the Inten tion to cut up this land Into small farms and sell them to settlers. A big rush is expected tibia spring, for the railroads have been exten sively exploiting the country and are offering special inducements to iettlers. Thousands of new people are expected to locate in the three states within the next year. Every 3tate will get its share. The Hill roads declare that the next few months will witness a .wonderful rush from the east and middle west to the Pacific Northwest This in formation 4s based upon the heavy inquiry for rates made to eastern agents of th Northern Pacific and Great Northern. Commercial bodies throughout the Northwest realizing the Importance of representation on the coming ex cursion to California over the Ore gon and Washington and the South ern Pacific have taken steps to send men on this trip well supplied with literature to advertise their particu lar section throughout California, and a part of Oregon. From the number of Inquiries re ceived by the railroad officials it Is evident a great many commercial clubs and chambers of commerce ln Washington, Idaho and British Co lumbia will send representatives. Commercial bodies ln Seattle and Tacoma have endorsed the trip and It Is believed the business men's midwinter excursion to California will result in much valuable adver tising for the Northwest generally.

Graves, who succeeded Glfford Ptn chot as the head of the bureau, to come. The supervisor will discuss methods to be followed ln meeting common problems and successful ex periments in meeting difficulties will be told for fhe benefit of aU. In the Interchange of experience and new ideas the supervisors hope to profit largely at the coming session. Traffic arrangements are being completed between the Hill rail roads, the Great Northern, the Northerm Pacific and the Spokane. Portland ft Seattle, and the Ore gon Electric Railway whereby a traffic interchange will be estab lished that will give the Willamette Valley a competing line with the Southern Pacific on transcontinental freight. This arrangement is bound to prove an advantage to the people of the whole valley for competition In transportation, as la everything else, is helpful. Hogs broke all former records ln the Portland market late last week when the remarkable price of $11 a hundred pounds, live weight, was paid by local packers for the best Eastern Oregon porkers. This price was not only the highest ever paid here ln the memory of packers but leads the whole United States for the last half century at least. 'or about a week Portland has had the distinction of leading the whole United States In being the highest priced hog market. When hogs went to $10.10 and $10.25 last week, It was thought the limit had been reached but the jump to $11 shows the scant supply of high class porkers this market and the strong demand.
