The COQUILLE CO-OPERA TIVE PACKING COMPANY’Sman- Hger desires all growers o f pork to hold back their pork from sale un til they hare heard of his proposi tion. This company will be pre pared to handle the entire pork crop by the time the corn-fed pigs come into season. The company proposes to pay hog growers the prevailing prices for their live weight, and th«n to equally share with them the profits which results from the sale of the manufactured article. The same arrangement will bo given to beef and poultry raisers. This packing company is going into the shipment of dressed poul try and beef for the San Francisco market. The company has ar ranged to have cold storage placed t n one of the steamers for this fea ture of its shipping business, so that meats may be dressed here, and arrive in San Francisco in the v e r y best of condition, only three days from the day of slaughter. It is the purpose of the manager to introduce the manufacture of preserved edibles from the several products ns they come in season throughout the year; peas, string beans, jams and jellies from berries, preserved plums, dried and evapo rated apples, starch, salmon, pork, the shipment of Steel-head salmon, and son forth. The same arrange ment will be given to producers of all kinds of edibles as are offered on meat, namely, that the prevailing price will pe paid them for the raw 1 roducr, and then the profit which is realized from the sale of the man ufactured article will be equally divided between the producer and the corporation.“ A provision in the articles of in corporation of this company forever secures for the producer this share in the profits of the manufactured article. The producer, being a stockhold er in the corporation, will realize nlso a profit fr o m the earnings of the corporation, according to the amount of stock which he holds. It will only share its profits with producers who have stock in the company. This company will have its agents in Nan Francisoo to sell goods as as fast us they are contracted for at this point. The San Franoisco agent will no doubt be ono of the Coquille townsmen, so that the company’s shipments and business will be in the hands of a person who is well known to the Coquille people. The Century Mercantile Company of San Francisoo, through whose instrumentality this company is being organized, will offer its o f fice and business connections to the packi ng company, in the mere hope of becoming established as a reli able channel through which the company’s products may be marketed. The connection is not in any way binding on the Packing Company. In fact, it will not have anything to do with the Packing company unless the Directors so desire. The Coquille country is more fa vorably situated for a general pack ing business than any other near-by location. Its products sre not only varied, but the vanety is produced by each settler. Each family pro duces pork, apples, peas, butter and Hulmon. A packing company could run throughout the year with these varied manufactures, and many per sons employed the year round. Such a varied manufacture will mako Coquille the industrial cen ter of the Coquille river. --------a «•» -------------- Basket Social Program.

C o o t C ou nty OU S bw ln g We take the following from the Portland Daily Journal of the 20th: A busineus man of Coquille, Or., who is in Portland on a brief visit, stated this morning that his com munity was keenly interested in the oil developments at Bandon, down along the Coos coast It has been generally known for some time that a well was being bored on the shore near Bandon, but the favorable results being attained at a depth of 1,000 to 1,100 feet are quite recent public knowledge. The result has been to cause the com munity to follow the drill closely as the management will permit news to get aboard. Two strata of oil-bearing sand have been penetrated, and there has been an exceptionally strong blast of natural gas for some time. The pressure from gas interfered so ma terially with the work that the chan, nel admitting it had to be cased in three places. Everything points to a good oil district, and the anticline formation has been sufficiently test ed to satisfy the oil operators that oil and gas would be confined at deep levels in tho proper basins, permitting commercial work. Mothers’ and Teachers’ M eet ing. The first Mothers’ and Teachers' meeting of the year was held Fri. day a.ternoon at the school houBe. The main business on hand was the election of officers for the ensu ing year, the officers elected being as follows: President, Mrs. W. C. Chase; First Vice-President, Miss Grace Bridges; Second Vice-Presi dent, Mrs. J. J. Handsaker; Third Vice-President, Miss Inez Lusk; Secretary, Mrs. A. N. Gould; Treas ure, Mrs. A. A. Leach. Mrs. Sper ry and Mrs. Yoakum were elected members of the executive committee. Prof. Davis, as chairman of the program oommittee, announced that the topic for discussion at the next meeting would be, “ Some Essen tials of a Successful School.” This topic will be divided into four parts, as follows: the directors’ part; the parents’ part; the teachers’ part and the pupils' part. Two of these Bub-heads will be considered noxt time. The next meeting will occur Nov. 18. It is hoped there will be a full attendance. Riverton P ick-ups. D.

General Kuropatkin’s army extends along a line running over 12 J miles south of Mukden, and is supported by strong fortifications on the Hun River. Present calm is enforced by the ex haustion of the armies on both sides, which lost in killed and wounded 80,000 men during the ten days' fighting.

Y„ Oct. 20.—Chan cellor Day, of Syracuse University, has declared in an address to the students that dancing must cease. The chancellor so decided because of the dances given by an organi zation of college women who have been holding weekly parties at the Westminister Hall. Dr. Day said: “Those dances militate against scholarship and study. Any at tempt to hold a dance aftor this will be taken as a deliberate notice of your intention to be no longer one of us.” The chancellor’s ultimatum has caused consternation among the students. ----- -- ♦ • -♦ ---- I find nothing better for liver derangement and constipaion than Chamberlain’s Stomach and Liver Tablets.

On account of the deep interest shown by the seven conversions in the one even ing, the church and Mr. Bower thought it unwise to close. As Mr. Bower can preach until Wednesday night and then reach Albany in time for Sunday, the meetings will continue at least until that time. Assignee’s Notice to Creditors.
