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.

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

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.
