DALLAS, OREGON, OCTOBER 23, 1903 The way to build up Dallas is to pat ronize Dallas people. OREGON MUST ADVERTISE Let the kickers kick and the growlers growl. Life is too short to waste time in trying to please kickers, and growlers cut but little figure in the progressive move ments of the present busy age. The great majority of the people of Ore gon will heartily endorse the action of the Lewis and Clark Fair Board in appropriating $10,000 for the construction of an Oregon building at the St. Louis Exposition. No state in the Union is able to make a display of resources more creditable than the exhibit now be ing forwarded to St. Louis from Oregon, and it is proper that this exhibit should be displayed in a building to itself, instead of being sandwiched in among a lot of smaller state exhibits. The tide of immigration has turned toward Oregon, and we must leave nothing undone that will add to the favor able impression of our slate. Neither should we lose eight of the fact that a creditable exhibit at St. Louis will do more to attract visitors to our own Fair in 1905 than all other agencies combined. Oregon is a growing state, and as such must not attempt to attract National attention by parsimonious exhibits of its numerous resources. One of Dallas' greatest needs at the present time is a Building and Loan Association. The scarcity of dwelling houses is checking the growth of the town more than all other causes combined. The de mand for houses is growing every day, and people are being turned away to other towns because they cannot find accommodations here. We need houses for the men who work in our- factories and mills; for the families who. would move here and send their children to our college and public school, and for the people from tho lt,agtern states, who, after living here a few months, would hnd Dallas a desirable lociv tion and build homes of their own An absence of vacant housed speaks well for the life of the tow n, but the time has come when this con dition of afl'airs is working to our disadvantage. We need more houses. We need a Building and Loan Association in order that working men may be given an op portunity to secure means where with to build houses for themselves. With filty families, now renting, living in their own homes, the scarcity of houses would be greatly relieved for a few years, and several hundred new people woujd soon be added to our population. A Build ing and Loan Association, with capable and reliable business men at its head, would be a blessing to the town, and the Ohservek hopes to see the citizens take early steps toward forming such un organiza tion. The people of San Francisco were startled by the sight of an airship sailing around over their heads last Sunday afternoon. The aeronaut managed his machine at will, and, w hile hovering over the Golden Gate, made various suc cessful trials of his steering gear. After a two hours'cruise.heattempt ed to land near the Presidio, but made the mistake of letting out too much gas and he landed in the hay a short distance from shore. He expect? to make another ascen sion in a few days, when he will have remedied certain minor de fects in his machine. It begins to look as if the problem of aerial navigation is nearing solution. After putting in about half the night figuring on the Ann problem, we have come to ihe conclusion that Ann is about as old as she feels, and that her age is none of our business anyhow.

ORCHARDS SADLY NEGLECTED Robert Johnson's remarks the care of an orchard, prin on ted fdnewhere in this issue, are w ell worth the nerusal and careful con sideration of every thinking farmer. Mr. Johnson is a practical fruit grower, one who has made careful observation and.stuay 01 existing renditions, and sneaks from an ex perience gained in the management of one of the largest and best-paying orchards in Oregon. There is nnt a hfittfir fruit country in the United States than the Willamette Valley, and the growing of apple AHn .nil ...iinoa cl-WMllt hp mnfl one of the leading industries. Even in their present state ol neglect, the apple orchards of this valley are in rrmnv instances yielding handsome profits to their owners each year. Une ot the ubserver farmer readers says that his orchar haa prnlrihlltfid a neat Slim to hi income this Fall, notwithstanding the fact that he has not spent a dollar for its cultivation in the last twenty-five years. Men engaged in mixed fanning are often heard advocating th theory that a small apple orchard will not pay lor the time spent in giving it the amount of cultivation and attention necessary to keep it in eood condition. We know of no better answer to this argumen than to cite the experience of James Elliott, who, in addition to his other work, cultivates a small orchard on his farm south of nllnq. T,nst Winter Mr. Elliott sold GOO bushels of apples in the local market for $600 a very neat sum to add to his year's earnings. He sprays his trees thoroughly, and as a result his fruit is free 'mm inspr.t nests and he finds no difficulty in disposing of it at a fancy price, while faulty, wormy apples are a drug in the market at any price. What this man is uo ing, any energetic farmer can do. Mr. Johnson is quite correct when hesaysihrt Winter apples wouiu pay as well in tne wiuanieue Valley as in any other portion of Oregon were spraying and careful cultivation general. It will probably be interesting to those persons who declared mat the Dallas waterworks could be built for $12,000 to learn that the pipe alone has cost over TIU.UUU. The material already on theground reaches a value of nearly $17,000, and there is more to follow. The reservoir will cost in the neighbor hood of $3,000, and none of the material to be used in its construc tion has vet arrived. The cost of 40 fire hydrants, the digging and filling of 12 or 15 triles of ditch, .i ....,,i,i iiutluii' xit - u iftibiiHu nt "Canyon Creek, and tho dipping I "i . i 'it ii and laying ot the pipe win swen the amount already paid out by many thousands of dollars. Mr. Gales exhibits cancelled checks renresent.ina' an expenditure of $3,000 for labor up to J,his date, and the work of putting in jLli e plant is just fairlv under way. It is estimated that the total cost of the improvement will be not less than $30,000, and it may exceed that amount. But in return for the money expended, Dallas will hnve the bmsest and best svstem of waterworks of any town of its Bize in Oregon. It will be a belter plant than can be found in many towns of twice the size of Dallas, and it will be worth every dollar of its cost. Another thin-skinned politician, feeling himself much aggrieved at the utterances of a newspaper, has gone up against the editor in the courts, and, as is usually the case, he emerges from the little end of the horn. The jury in the libel case against F. V. Chausse editor of the Oregon Observer, brought by State Senator R. D. Hume, gave the latter a verdict of $1. Under the law, Mr. Hume gets also a dollar for costs, the balance of which he must pay. Incidentally, Mr. Hume's methods of salmon fishing were given a thorough air ing in the trial, much to that gentleman's discomfiture. Editor Chausse is kept busy acknowledg ing the congratulations of his mends over the outcome of the suit. An amusing mistake occurred in last Sunday's Oregoniari. Among the pletures of newly-married couples on the society page, tho likenesses of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Dunkelberger, of Dallas, and Mr. and Mrs. Fred Johnson, of Baker City, were arranged in such a way as to make Mrs. John son appear as Mrs. Dunkelberger, and Mrs. Duukelbergor as Mrs. John son. All the young peoplo aro good looking, however, and make handsome couples either way they aro grouped, so they can afford to forgive the Oregonian artist his mistake. Cause of Lockjaw.

"I mi troubled with female weakness for eifrht years ; and suffered more than I can tell," writes Mrs. Gust. Moser of Ovaiido, Deerlodfre Co., Mont. My disposition was affected to such an extent mat to say , - anyone was almost impossible. - 'I had two opera tions performed by one of the most skilled nrirons of the West. but did not get relief. Then, agamsi my doctor's strict orders, 1 commenced taking Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and 'Golden Medical Dis covery, and also fol lowed the advice given in the Common Sense Medical Ad viser. I continued this treatment for three months, and to-day am as healthy and well as a woman can be. 1 cannot thank Doctor Pierce enough for his kind letters Jq me." Womanly dis eases, as a rule, spoil the "disposi tion," because of the extreme nerv ousness and suffering they cause. Hap. piness as well as health is restored to the woman whose diseased condition is cured by the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. After eight years of suffering and two fruitless operations, three months' use of "Favorite Prescription" restored Mrs. Moser to perfect health. This great icinedy for woman's ills, establishes Regularity, dries weakening drains, heals inflammation and ulceration and cures female weakness.

The Margarita Fischer Company closed its engagement at City Hall, Saturday evening, and left for Southern Oregon on Monday. The four performances given in this city were well attended, and the engage ment was highly successful from a financial standpoint. Mr. Fischer's present" -company is the bost ho has yet brought to Dallas, and the week's offerings were meritorious, with one notable exception. The play, "A Homespun Heart," presented Saturday evening, is stale. Hat and unprofitable, and the company would do well to drop it from its repertoire. There is absolutely noth ing to it. The plot is uninteresting, ana tne situations are unlike any thing ever heaid of in real life. Be sides, there is much in the play that is distasteful to an intelligent audi ence. For example: The prayer of the half-witted boy in the second act was coarse and sacrilegious, and grated harshly on the sensibilities of every refined man and woman in the audience. The management should awake to the fact that anything that partakes of mockery of Christianity is not appreciated by an audience of lauies and gentlemen, and snoma see that this bit of business is not repeat ed. The spectacle of a make-believe idiot onering up a ounesque prayer to the Almighty, and a group of kneel ing actors shaking with suppressed laughter, does much to produce a be lief in the minds of intelligent men and women that all the people on the stage are idiots in reality. The Obsebvkb offers this criticism in a kindly spirit, for, aside from this play, the Margarita mscnertJompany puts up clever and pleasing perform ances, and its engagement in Dallas broke the monotony or a dull week in the amusement line. The company contains some really clever talent, and the specialties introduced by J. B. McCowell and Frank Montrose are fully equal to those to be seen in the average metropolitan playhouse. The people of Dallas are liberal patrons of the drama, and It Is to be hoped that before another year rolls around the city will be provided with a place of amusement better adapted to tne com fort of the audience and the accomo dation of ipentorious attractions.
