WALLA WALLA IS BUSY City to Be Host at Big Six Day Cel ebration; Wild West Shows With 26 Events Each Day. Walla Walla, July 31 The har vest season in the Northwest will soon come to an end and the busiest season of all the year for a majority of our people will have passed, and it win oe an opportune time to take that much needed vacation. Cer tainly everyone is entitled to a week ot pleasure ot every year, and in planning a vacation two questions always arise: "Where shall we go" and "where can we get the most for our money T" This year the problem is easily solved for it seems that Walla Walla, Wash., has the most to offer in the big Walla Waila County fair and Frontier Days exhibition. The former will be held during the entire week of Sept. 22-27 and the latter on Sept. 2u, 26 and 27. VOWS PLEDGED (Continued from Page One) street left Wednesday for where he will make his home.

The State Board of Health has ln-gun the cru saile in earnest, and it will net b long until these disease spreaders will have disappeared lrom hotels, railroad ears, m-IhmiIIiouscs, and all other public places. You can now find a complete line of Sanitary l'uper Towels at Hav ter ' Book Store. These towels are highly absorlcnt. entirely sanitary, ami cheaper than laundry bills. Just trip. the thing for your ranipinj; down the main aisle of the church rrom me lecture room at the rear. It was led by the ushers, George T Gerlinger, Oscar Ilayter, Dr. I). M Undershot and John C. Uglow. Fol lowing the ushers came Miss Rose Bodayla, bridesmaid, on the arm of C. S. Kennedy, best man. The bri dal coirple brought up the rear. Tak ing their position beneath a large and beautiful marriage bell of sweet peas,, the vows were soon plighted, Rev. Fields using the ring ceremony ot the hpiscopal church. The bride was attired in a simple yet beautiful gown of white cree meteor with lace and carried a huge hoquet of bride's roses. The bridesmaid was gowned in a becoming creation of pink crepe dechine draped with pink satin and carried a hoquet ot roses The groom, the attending gentleman and the ushers were clad in the con ventional evening suits. The bride's going away costume consisted of a simple blue tailored suit. Out of Town Guests.

M. Hendershott, Mrs. F. E. Star buck ami daughter Ruth, and Miss Mella White, all of Portland; Miss Harlan, Miss Fndd and the Misses I loan, of Monmouth. The contracting parties of this most happy event are well-known in this city, esiM'cially the groom, who has been a successful nraeticinsr (hysician in Dallas tor several years and who numbers his friends not only here but throughout the county, by the hundreds. His bride has been t teacher in the public schools of the ounty tor several years and a short ime since taught in North Dallas. Her home was in Salem with her mother. The congratulations of the entire community go out to this con tie so auspiciously embarked on the sea ot matrimony. Mr. and Mrs. Starbuek were the recipients of a large array of numer ous and costly gifts, consisting large ly ot expensive cut glass and silver but many othr useful and practical tokens were noted. This means that for six consecutive days there will be something of more than ordinary interest in the Garden City. The Frontier Days exhibition will be all the name impliesa real' wild west show with 26 events each day, each one of which will be thrilling and interesting. There will be ex citement from the crack of the open ing shot until the last performance is completed. There will be many bucking horses that will buck, cow boys and cowgirls that can ride. There will be races for Indians, cow boys, cowgirls, squaws, and wild horse races; cattle will be bulldogged. Tex McCloud will throw the strong est bull without touching the lariat with hands; there will be cowboy races, stage coach races and chariot races. Trick and fancy riding and roping will be depicted' by real ex perts, both men and women. Lucille Mulhall, champion lady rider of the world, will delight all that see her. Jason Stanley will appear in his fa mous drunken ride. In fact the en tire program will be the best that can be secured at any priee. Many nota ble performers tare under contract to appear and the management is spend ing $50,000.00 to make the exhibition a success. The Frontier Days pa rade will be one of the greatest nov elties ever witnessed by people of the present generation as it will include everything that ever pertained to the west, htage coaches, trappers, min ers, old wagons, pack trains, immi grants and over 500 girl riders. Hun dreds of Indians will take part and will be camped on the grounds in In dian village style. Ihe alla Walla County Fair will surpass all previous attempts along this I ine, .$2.1,000.00 being given in premiums and purses and the exhib its will include everything that grows and every kind of live stock.

Shipments of raw cotton from the United States to France alone last year were worth $07,000,000. Corn silage and bright, clean hay make a good ration for dairy cows, and good yields of milk have been re ported where no other food was given. The housewife may at times find It worth remembering that a pinch of soda added to milk that is close to the souring point will keep it from cur dling on being heated. It would seem as if the balmy fall and winter had been about offset by the chilly days of April and May and that there should be some warm, grow ing weather coming to us.

Encourage the boy by letting him have some of the money he gets for the sale of stuff from the garden which he has helped care for. The Scripture saying that "the laborer is worthy of his hire" applies to boys as well as men. There is no kind of garden flower that Is hardier or easier to raise than the violet. It has few pests and thrives under the same general condi tions as does the wild violet. A root or two will give a very large return in satisfaction for the trouble taken to care for them. In the case of both horses and cattle (and folks might be added to the list) there is no scrub that is more of a scrub or more conspicuous than a thor oughbred scrub.

A very convincing reason for swat ting the fly now is that under average conditions it will become the grand father or grandmother of 1,000,000,000 by the time the middle of September rolls around. The writer hasn't veri fied these figures by actual count, but gives them on what seems to be good authority. The Kansas state board of health recommends small bouquets of white clover blossoms placed here and there in the house as a most effective means of keeping the common housefly out. They seem to loathe the scent of the clover blossoms and will not stay where It is if they can get away. This Dy dope is cheap and worth giving a trial. has said that the common garden fond is worth $10 In cash to the man in whose garden he makes headquarters. Examination of the stomachs of 148 toads showed that OS per cent of their food consisted of the following: Bugs, beetles, spiders, potato hugs, thousand legged worms, weevils, tent caterpil lars and grasshoppers These were eaten by thousands, while wlreworms. nrmy worms, crickets, cucumber bugs and rose bugs were also relished. In view of such a showing, the wise gar dener will be careful not to kill or Injure one of the homely creatures. It is the opinion of naturalists that birds eat more in proportion to their weight than any other living thing. In way of proving this they cite the fact that a ringdove will eat GOO peas at a meal, or 180 beechnuts at a time, or 3ixty acorns. A robin will eat two and 1 half times its weight in insects and worms in a period of twenty-four hours. Pardons Soldier Who Didn't Kneel.

R'ln .i Not in many years has the writer noticed a larger number of the com mon, useful birds than he has this season. Whether the birds were less molested during their sojourn in the southern states or en route north we have not seen stated, but the presence of the birds in their northern haunts in larger numbers than usual would seem to point to this.

Ore gon, until August 9, 1913, at the hour of 10 o'clock A.

A certified check of 5 ner cent of bid must accompany each bid, and the right is reserved to reject anv and all bids. The successful bidder must, within five days from the date of the ac ceptance of said bid, apear in the office of said Court, at Dallas, Ore gon, and execute contract with said Court for the faithful jierfonnance of said work. Dated at Dallas, Polk County, Ore gon, this Jdrd day of July, 1913. J. B. TEAL. County Judge of Polk County, Oregon It may be a homely notion, but tho writer somehow has the thought that with all of the many varied floral crea tions resulting from the ingenuity of plant breeders there has been nothing perfected that surpasses in exquisite coloring and beauty or in rich yet deli cate fragrance a spray of wild crab apple blossoms. It Is well for both gardener and farmer to remember that cultivation Is primarily for the purpose of stirring the soli to insure proper circulation of air and moisture and secondarily for the destruction of weeds. The one process serves both purposes It is true, but it Is sheer folly to stop cultivation just because there are no weeds. All animals appreciate and are the healthier for having a dry place In which to rest and sleep, and this is particularly true of the milk cow and of the brood sow and her litter of lit tle pigs. Many of the ills from which the animals named suffer as well as a good deal of loss might be prevented were greater care exercised In this one particular. The writer planted some string beans this spring when he planted radish, let tuce and peas. The plants are now In their fourth leaf, but he has had to cover them half a dozen times to pre: rent their getting nipped with the frost, and he has concluded that plant ing beans In early April is a good deal like hatching chicks In February In that both are a bit out of season. The number of deaths that occur as the result of getting hold of some deadly poison Instead of medicine would seem to suggest to sensible folk the wisdom of keeping poisons in a se cure place away from other things in common use. Moreover, bottles con taining such poisons should be plainly lobeled, so that there can be no mis take as to their contents. The practice of injecting certain chemicals or ingredients into trees for the purpose of curing or prevent ing diseases or maladies to which they are subject has been carried on to some extent, but with very indifferent success. Practically the only exception to the statement made is the injection of a solution of iron sulphate into trees suffering from chlorosis, as shown in a yellowing of the foliage due to a lack of iron. Plan Big Open Air Dance. The lirst open air dance to bi given in Dallas will hold forth Saturday night on the Mill street pavement be tween Main and .IcITcrsnn streets. The dance will be under the auspices of the Dallas hand, and the affair is expected to be the real big event of the season. Assurance has been given that the paving will be completed Saturday afternoon and as the sand will not be laid until Monday the street will be in excellent shape.

England, Is located an experiment station on which experi ments ta crop production have been conducted consecutively for a period of sixty years. Among other Interest ing facts brought out is that wheat Two good fly dopes are made as fol lows: One dram of bichromate of potash dissolved In two ounces of sweetened water and placed in shallow dishes will dispose of many flies. Also a spoonful of formaldehyde in a quar ter of a pint of water and left exposed in a room will kill all of the flies in It Still another excellent repellent is produced by putting twenty drops of carbolic acid on a hot shovel. This produces a vnpor that kills the flies. Tarasites that will destroy the weevil that feeds on the alfalfa plant have been discovered In Italy by W. It.
