H EN D ERSO N Habit Back Corsets 3 n “ FRONT L A C E D ” H E front laced models are the culmination of the latest and best ideas in corset fashion. They re model the figure, giving it a perfectly moulded back, giving it lines of grace and symmetry and the long, ta pering curves which are so artistically beautiful. They reduce the full figure, giving it the flattened front and slender hip effects. 1 hey arc absolutely hygieuic and have the endorsement of the leading physicians and dressmakers. We call special at tention to the model illustrated which is made in two lengths, high bust, for the tall figure, and medium bust, for the shorter waisted stout figure. This model is extremely long over the back and hips. 1 he extra lacing in the back from the waist-line down permits an absolutely perfect adjustment over the back and assists further in keeping the hips in perfect subjection, thus giving the so-called hipless figure. W e carry the front laced corsets in a varied line of materials at prices ranging from $2.50 to $12. We cordially invite the ladies of our city and vicinity to visit our corset depart ment and inspect these most exquisite models. Consultation and fitting free. T Rees-Wallace Co.

Cooper and Randall have re cently sold 21 acres of the Knox place to W . A. Ward, who will proceed to improve the tract. William Wollard has purchased 5 acres froju the sanm farm and has n new house completed thereon across the road in front of the old Knox house. Bert Dunham is just completing a nice cottage on his 21 acre tract which was cut from the east end of the Knox place. Randall and Cooper have laid out a new wagon road through the Knox place from the county road at the old Knox barn to the Geo. Miller place at the river and are cutting the adjoining farm lands along the new road up into 5 and 10 acre tracts at $80 aud $100 per acre. Files Notarial Commission. The notarial commission of J. E. Young of Cottage Grove was filed for record in the clerk’s office Tuesday. No wonder the Eugene Elks are seeking a big Cottage Grove mem bership. They will build a $75,000 temple this year.

That all star baseball aggrega tion, the “ Nesmith Boosters” is a strong one aud will be heard from all along the line this season, em phasizing the fact that Cottage Grove is on the map. The two pitchers are Ray Baker and Geo. Baker, the former tossing a verit able caution ball fast and furious, while the latter has them at his mercy aud keeps the best of ’em guessing. He is good enough to be on the leaguers pay role. Karl Hill, first base, never lets one pass aud he is also something of a slab artist. The way Capt. Walter Mason guards the second bag is refreshing aud he never lets one go by. Chet Mason has the reputa tion of snapping up a fly in the field the same as does a brook trout on a balmy spring day. Alva Wise is also at home in the gar dens and is a scrappy fielder. Mer ton Earl, can “ cut u p" with the best of ’em aud always makes good. Tibbets, it is said, can pound a Spaulding equally as well as a telegraph key. Pay Allison is good wherever you put him and always gives a good account of himself. The sphere has got to sizzle some if it passes back stop Rollin Wicks. He is always there with the goods aud there are others whom the Deader will report at a more opportune time.’ Manager Knapp is limbering up his squad and they will soon begin to play ball.

Never use a hatchet for remov ing suckers Avoid injuring the cambium iu any way. Don’t leave your pruuuiug to the hired man. The more you understand trees the lietter you will prune them. A severe heading-back will re new the tops of old peach trees. In transplanting be careful of the root-hairs. Iu transplanting cut back top and root. Do not head trees so low as to interfere with cultivation. Drastic pruning strikes at the vitality of the tree. Do not start all main limbs at the same height. Keep the tree free of suckers. Summer pruning induces fruit fulness. Tom wouuds are generally fatal. Faint over the larger wounds. Trees are delicate structures and require careful handling. A heavy pruning is always fol lowed by a heavy growth of suckers. Never slit the bark, liore holes, or drive nails iuto trees. Never allow stock to prune your trees. I'npruned, uncultivated orchards are not money-makers. The orchard is not a profitable source of firewood. Blackberries and black rasp berries should always lie tipped back in summer.

It is characteristic of the mother goat to hide their young by an old log or fern cluster and graze at a distance sometimes for an hour or more and then return to find her kid exactly where she left it unless some sympathetic person has hap pened along that way in the mean time and supposing tfie little one lost from the fold picks it up and carries it down to Mr. McFar land's home and reports the find. Mr. McFarlaud in return for this kindness must take the youngsters back to the fold and theu oftimes is unable to locate the mother of the young goat aud must therefore either raise it by hand or kill it. Those who would enjoy the liberty and fine scenery of "M t. David” are welcome to do so, Mr. Mc Farland says, so long as they leave their dogs at home, close the gates and refrain from carrying all the “ lost kids” from the pasture to his home.
