GUY BROS. & DALTON Dallas, Oregon TOLK'S RllsV gaumiiic Editor Cornwall Tells What He Sees Along Dallas and Falls City Railroad. George M. Cornwall, editor of The imberman. recentlv mnri Ti oyer the line of the Dallas and Falls City railroad, and his observations are given in the May number of his publication, as follows : The Voget Lumber Company, of Falls City, are cutting about 25,000 feet daily, their cut being handled by the Falls City Lumber Company. O. ilarhart purchased the Oberer Meyer sawmill at Black Rock, in rolk County, at receivers' sale, April 29. The capacity of the plant will be en larged. The Dallas Planing Mill, Dallas, presided over by Frank J. Coad, re ports running steadily on local busi ness. Thoy may conclude to install a 12-inch Inside moulder later in the season. Captain W. E. Newsbm, Rainier, Oregon, contemplates Installing an electric light plant at Falls City, and will probably also install a small mill tocut lumber for bis intended improve ments. The Captain has purchased the water power at Falls City. The Dallas Lumber Company has added two additional engines to their camp on the LaCreole Creek. The mill is cutting about 40,000 feet daily. This mill has about 250 to 300 million feet tributary to the mill and Is able to use the LaCreole Creek very eco nomically to float their logs. The Willamette Valley Lumber Company, of Dallas, under the man agement of George T. Gerlinger, looks prosperous. The mill is cutting about 90,000 feet daily, but complains In common with other mills, about the scarcity of cars. Anew sawdust bin and a new office are some of the latest additions to this plant. The Polk County Mill & Lumber Company, of Black Bock, are cutting about 30,000 feet every day. The tim ber at this mill is fine, soft yellow fir, and is being converted into ties and railroad timber. This concern also cuts alder and maple. The company has recently installed a Washington Iron Works engine in their camp. The George W. Cone Lumber Com pany, of Black Rock, is advantage ously located in a good body of tim ber, and is making a specialty of railroad material. The mill is cutting about 60,000 to 60,000 feet daily. The output goes largely to the Southern Pacific Railroad. Mr. Cone has built a very smart mill, well designed for the business, and is making a success of his enterprise. The Charles K. Spaulding Logging Company, of Newberg, are the owners of about 175,000,000 feet of choice stum page on the Salem, Falls City& Western Railroad, This body joins a tract of 700,000,000 feet owned by this company on the Luckiamute River. The company is operating a logging camp on the S. F. C. & W., and are hauling their logs to Newberg. a dis- tance of 38 miles. Salem, Falls City & Western Rail road has recently added twenty-four new forty-one-foot cars of 70,000 pounds capacity and three box cars to its equipment, giving it a total of sixty- two cars, two geared and three direct locomotives. A modern machine shop equipped with the most modern tools is being installed. The car repairing and rebuilding shop is well equipped and admirably fitted for the purpose. The physical condition of the roadbed is excellent An extension is now projected into the Siletz basin. The road is under the management of Louis Gerlinger, Jr., who is certainly entitled to a great deal of credit for the manner in which he has bandied his road. There are longer roads than the Salem, Falls City & Western, but none are better managed. The Falls City Lumber Company, of Falls City, is operating two mills, the capacity of mill No. 1 being 80,000 feet daily, and the capacity of mill No. 2, 40,000 feet daily. This company is installing three 66x16 Doners, whu Dutch oven settings, and a pair of ifi22 H. S. & G. engines. The con tract for the installation of the power plant was awarded to the Zimmerman-Wells-Brown Company. In the plSn- ing mill a Berlin resaw ana jiamouu Iron Works horizontal resaw, have been Installed. A sorting table to take the lumber from the flume, and a 40-foot trimmer will also form pan oi the new improvements. It is the Inten tion to dismantle the planing mill now located at the present terminus of the flmfrnm mill No. 1. and connect this flame with the planing mill of mill No. 2. By this means u win cou centrate the product and save labor.

Everything is progressing well for the play. Miss Georgia Martin will take Mrs. Louis Gerllnger's place in the cast and will act 'well the part of Violet Drew.

Mrs. Gilbert MacGregor will be her accompanist George Bennett has all sorts or pleasant surprises up his sleeve for the audience to laugh over. He has been warned to be ready with plenty of material for encores, because wherever he has appeared he has had difficulty In getting off the stage, so clamorous were his hearers for more jokes and original stunts.

COUNTY, OREGON, RESPONDS TO OSTEOPATHY Case of Spinal Meningitis Cured By New Treatment in Oiympia, Washington. OLYMPIA. Washington. Special. Jesse Fitzaimmons, son of Mrs. Mary Fitzslmmons, Is the second reported case of spinal meningitis here, and is in a critical condition. Marie Stranan, the first case, is convalescing, haviug respouded to osteopathic treatment. Oregonian. Dr. C. A. Campbell, the osteopathic physician, who recently located In Dallas to practice his profession, says that cases of the dread disease, which is prevalent in many of the Coast cit ies, have been cured by osteopathy where medicine utterly failed to kill the germ. Describing the nature of the disease, he said : "Without going Into technical de tail, It might be stated In a general way that in all cases of Inflammation of whatever kind there Is, first, irrita tion of some kind ; then congestion, or rush of blood to the part irritated; then inflammation proper, with local or general fever. In a case of menin gitis, which is an inflammation of the meninges or membranes covering the spinal cord and brain, there is, first, Irritation from Invasion of the part by the germ, diplococcus intracellulars; then, rush of blood to the point of Irritation to overcome the damage done by the Invading germs. Inflam mation results, and as long- as the congestion is kept up there is little prospect of a subsidence of the inflam mation. The inflammation in this area, along the spine, causes irritation of the nerves controlling the muscles of the back, both behind and in front of the backbone, causing the muscles to tighten and draw the joints of the spine closer together, bringing pressure on the veins which drain the spinal cord and meninges of the used blood damming up the blood so that it cannot get out as fast as it gets in via the arteries. This causes more poison to accumulate in the Stagnant blood, which more auu more irritates the nerves, causing the mus cles controlled by them to clamp down tighter and tighter upon the blood vessels, and the viscious circle is kept up til death or common sense comes to the relief. "The best that can be done is to assist Nature to hurry this poison laden blbod to the excretory organs, the lungs, kidneys and bowels, In order that the system may be relieved of the poison as soon as possible. The common sense thing to do, then, would seem to be to relax the tensed muscles along the spine; to stretch the spine and separate its joints to as nearly normal position as possible In short, to remove every obstruction possible from the circulation, as this is the only thing that can cure free circulation, Nature. This the osteopath endeavors to do to remove obstruction to the free flow of blood and nervous energy ; to take off as many handicaps as he can from the overburdened sys tem ; to give Nature the best possible chance, by softening up the hardened muscles, stretching and limbering up the stiffened spine, and stimulating the excretory organs In a natural way to assist In getting rid of the load of poisons which are causing the fever and other symptoms."
