Mrs. Woodrow Wilson The editor of an exchange says: “ I never saw my neigh bor or his wife, but nothing could ever convince me that they are not excellent people. Be cause my window overlooks their back yard, and their back yard has a clean carpet of turf, and trees and several lilac bushes beautifully in bloom, and all without a trace of careless dis figurement. And I hear the voices of children and the sound of children’s games there of an evening. I believe in the testimony of back yards; they seldom deceive you, while the front is generally built for that especial purpose.” Merchants all over the state are carrying large stocks of eastern trust made crackers and biscuits that are inferior to the Oregon-made products. It ought to convince a merchant with a tincup full of brains that Oregon- made crackers are better. The eastern trust-made crackers are not as fresh and are not made of superior materials. The Ore gon-made crackers and biscuits are less broken up and made of Oregon flour and lard and with Oregon labor.—Oregon Manufacturer. MISH MA1UIAIIKT WILSOM.

Everything in Hardware The Battleship Oregon will not be used as a target by the Navy Department if this state can help it. Resolutions strongly protest ing against this action have been adopted by many organizations and a petition, as long as the famous battleship itself, has been signed and forwarded to President Wilson by school chil dren asking that the Oregon lead the naval parade through the Panama Canal. Many believed that a miracle was performed at Andersonville prison during the war. About 25,000 men were confined there, and the only water obtainable was polluted. Things looked pretty bad, when lightning hit the prison and uncovered a spring, which ever since then has been known as Providence spring. We don’t know that Chinese doctor ads are less disinteresting reading than the eczema remedy and Chamberlain’s colic, cholera and diarrhoea locals, which dec orate the pages of the ‘‘live wire.” Cottage Grove’s Farm ers’ Day celebration soliciting committee, Burkholder and Spray, raised nearly $700 on their first trip about town. A carload of first-class apples sent from Drain to Minneapolis proved a total loss financially, and the shippers had to put up $75 freight.
