aging to squeeze but an existence-
stick a pin in yourself
for you are not awake to what a grand opportunity
awaits you at
GUTHRIE ACRES
There is not a man, woman or child who is able to do
a good days' work who cannot be benefitted by estab
lishing themselves on a Guthrie Acre tract wW n
Nature herself will work for you.
Competition is fierce in all business and industrial lines
-you know that. But there is no competition on the
production of growing things on farms. There's only
about half as many farmers as are needed and every
dollars' worth of products raised are sold nowadays
at the highest prices.
You can buy Guthrie Acre Tracts
as low as $75 per Acre
On a five acre tract you can support a good sized fam
ily. On a ten acre tract you can do that and have a
good sized bank account at the end of the year.
If we cannot prove these facts to you we will not ask
you to consider Guthrie Acres any further.

CANCER
removed from
DALLAS LADY
On Monday morning a lady of Dal
las who does not wish to have her
name in the newspapers, but who is
willing to talk about her experience
to others suffering of similar trou
bles, had an electrical operation per
formed by Dr. Toel for the removal
of a cancerous growth at the mouth
of her womb. She had had pain in
her womb for several years and some
discharge lately. A year ago last
February she consulted a physician
m -Portland who expressed Ins tear
that the growth might be cancerous
and advised her to have it cut out.
However she was afraid of the
knife, also knowing that cancers cut
out so frequently return.
.bhe had read Dr. Toel s notices in
the Dallas papers for the last seven
weeks but did not have the courage
to go to him for an operation.
Only when she saw his announce
ment that June 10th would be the
last day on which he would accept
new patients did she go to him last
Saturday to have a talk with him.
Nie returned on isunday tor an ex
animation and on Monday her cancer
was removed. As Dr.- Toers elec
trical operations are bloodless and
almost painless, no chloroform or
ether was, used. She will be 'treated
regularly every day for a nervous
disturbance by Dr. Toel for some
weeks and if patients that suffer
from similar womb troubles wish to
see her about her experience, l)r.
Toel will submit their names to her
and arrange for a meeting, if the
parties are acceptable to her.
On account or a number ot new
patients having come under Dr.
Toel's treatment since his announce'
ment of June 10th as the last day
for new patients, he is compelled to
stay longer vet in Dallas. See his
three-column card in tins paper.

Editor Says Dr. Albert AbramsMust
Be a "Rip Van Winkle."
A Faux Pas.
Why are all the doctors gloomy
and why do they seem distressed f
What horrible occurrence has dis
turbed their peaceful restT They
are glooms of the first water and the
reason for their grief, is because ap
pendicitis no more needs the knife's
relief; it was one bright day for doc
tors when m sixteen, forty-two, bar
acenus- did discover an appendix all
askew; for it soon became the fash
ion to have that thing taken out, and
unless you'd lost your vermiform you
were a social lout; so the medics
carved and snipped along; the pro
ceeds were immense; those who still
had their appendix surely felt like
30 cents; now along comes Doctor
Abrams and he surely is a yegg for
he's trying to destroy the goose that
lays the golden egg; he proclaims
that all a man must do to cure the
dread disease, is to single out a ver
tebra and give it one good squeeze;
if this method of procedure proves
to be a real success, this Abrams
person sure will be an outcast
that's my guess. Missoula (Mont.
Missoulian, November 13th.
Stolen Thunder.
Dr. Asa Wiliard says our jingk
on appendicitis being cured througli
adjusting a vertebrae is original
ftiough, but that Dr. Albert Abrams
himself, who heralds through the As
sociated Press that he has discovered
such a way of cure, is about 30 years
late in his original discoveries.
The Doctor savs: "mere are
scores ot people m ana about mis
soula who have been cured of appen
dicitis without an operation, during;
the past 15 years, and thousands of
them over the country, and the fun
damental part of the treatment they
received was adjustment of verte
brae. ' '
Over 30 years ago Dr. A. T. Still,
the founder of osteopathy, discovered
that appendicitis as well as disease
of other organs of the body was of
tentimes caused by slight displace
ment of certain vertebrae or strains
of the back at various points, which
caused pressure to be brought upon
nerves emanating from the spine and
which supplied the organs. Adjust
ing these slight displacements and
strains allowed the organs to recov
er. He worked along that line of
thought for years and 20 years ago
established a school at Kirksville,
Mo., which has taught his principles
since and there are now but three
medical schools in the United States
which have as many students and
the course of instruction equals that
in the best medical colleges. There
are now eight osteopathic schools
over the country, ana the comuinea
attendance of them considerably ex
ceeds the combined attendance of all
the homeopathic colleges in the coun
try.
Over 6,000 osteopaths are practic
ing, some in every state in the Union
and the central principle of their
therapv is that tlie adjustment of
vertebrae and control of nerve and
blood supply of the organs throu;
properly applied spinal pressure will
allow the organs to become normal.
This all being true, one might be
pai'doned for wondering where Dr,
Albert Abrams discovered (?) his
marvelous discoveries, which he lists
under " Snondvlotherapy " and is
traveling all over the country and
giving with much eclat to medica
societies and Associated Press re
porters. Spondylotherapy translated
to ordinary English simply means
vertebral treatment or spinal treat
ment. If Dr. Abrams really recently
discovered what he is giving out, he
must be the original Rip Van Win
kle. Missoula (Mont.) Missoulian

INTEREST GROWS IN SHOWS
All
Sections of State to be Repre
sented in Exhibits. "
Portland, June 10 From all indi
cations Oregon .will make a better
showing in the eastern land shows
this year than ever before. The Or
egon State Immigration commission
with headquarters at the Commercial
club, Portland, is urging commercial
bodies of the state, as well as indi
viduals, to make suitable exhibits
which will be included in the state
display with no expense save that of
gathering the specimens and taking
them to the depot. They will be
shipped from the nearest railroad
point to Portland, assembled in a
general exhibit and will be sent east
by the commission but each organiza
tion or grower will receive full credit
for the products entered.
A circular is now being issued by
the commission giving directions for
gathering and shipping the exhibits
Attention is called to the need for
careful packing, the selection of only
the best specimens and advice and
assistance is offered. It is pointed
out that the co-operation of all parts
of the state is necessary in order
that the agricultural wealth of Ore
gon may be shown to the best ad
vantage and that success may be at
tained in competition for prizes with
the exhibits made by other states.
It is suggested that the decision to
choose exhibits for this purpose
should be made early in the season
ana that a tew choice specimens
trom each community are much bet
ter to show the East what Oregon
can grow than a large quantity ot
sample grains, fruits and vegetables
of mediocre quality.

ors on Scientific Culture.
Independence, June 5. (Special)
Saturday morning Prof. Thomas
Shaw the agricultural expert of the
Hill lines spoke to a small crowd of
farmers on the subject of scientific
farming. He tried to impress the
farmers that they should be careful
and not raise too much of any thing
that was easy to glut the market,
such as -grain, potatoes or hops, but
to put more time in on the raising of
live stock for meats, dairying, poul
try and poultry products. Prof.
Shaw and party were entertained at
luncheon at the Beaver hotel at noon,
after which they were taken back to
Salem by auto. . .; !

BRANDING OF BUTTER.
A ruling of J. D. Mickle, Oregon
Dairy and Food commissioner, re
cently published, giving his reasons
for demanding the proper labeling
of butter from farm and dairy. Com
missioner Mickle says :
In explanation ot the causes
which led to the recent ruling from
this office on the branding of "con
try butter," I will say that it is not
the purpose of this office to work any
hardships upon small dairymen, but
on the contrary it is largely for their
protection that the ruling was made.
Country butter is olten had yet H
is far from the truth to say that it
is all bad, but every roll of good
country butter, if unbranded, has
forced upon it all the odium that is
daced upon the bad butler troquent-
v found in the country store. The
brand demanded by this ruling iden
tifies the good as well as the bad
and each receives his just reward
from the commercial world as soon
as his brand or name becomes thor
oughly identified with the particular
quality of the article. Besides this,
the neatness of the label and pack
age has a commercial value that far
more than reimburses the farmer for
the extra cost of the printing. How
would a dealer disise of a case of
creamery butter if it came to him in
plain wrappers f It is not unlikely
that the loss from the sales of a sin
gle case because of the imprinted
wrappers, would pay for the print
ing of a thousand wrappers. Prob
ably the greatest benefit to lie de
rived from the proper branding is
the fact that the quality of the but
ter will improve, hence the consumer,
will be willing to pay a letter price.
When the maker h name follows the
buUer to the consumer, greater pre
cautions will be taken to see that the
quality rs good. For instance: Kggs
that are stamped and 'warranted or
money refunded' are very seldom
found bad. while it is unnecessary to
stale that if tb guarantee or name
of the farmer in not required, the
same care will not le exercised in
marketing a good fresh esrg. "

Road to Spend Millions.
The Southern Pacific company will.

ing to a formal statement. of planned
improvements that has been submit
ted to the California railroad com
mission. The company asks for per
mission to issue bonds to the amount
of $150,000,000 and gives as a reason
for the request the number of heavy
contemplated investments in this
state. Among these are : Electrifi
cation of lines in the Willamette val
ley; reconstruction of the Sheridan-'
Wrillamina railroad at a cost of $2,-
501,880; Corvallis & Eastern R. R.,

Improved Market Plans.
Improved plans for marketing the
fruit crops of the principal north-'
western districts have just been com
pleted by the Northern Pacific Fruit
Distributors' association and are ex
pected to be of benefit to the fruit
growers throughout the northwest '
group of states. Better arrange
ments for marketing have been lack
ing and it is thought the scheme just'
perfected will supply this need.
