A prosperous, intelligent, and con tented rural population is essential to our national perpetuity. It is impossible to impress upon anyone that there is dignity in resid ing upon a farm with impoverished soil, dilapidated buildings, and an en vironment of ignorance. The income of the farm can be in creased from three to five fold by the use of improved methods. More power and less hand work. The world's most important school is the home and small farm. The basis of the better rural life is greater earning capacity of the farmer. Demonstration work may be regard ed as a system of adult education giv en to the farmer upon his farm by means of object lessons in the soil, prepared under his observation and generally by his own hand. Agriculture in most sections con sists simply in a series of motions in herited from Adam. These mechanic farmers now reside in a town or city, live out of a canned garden, and milk a tin cow. The least worthy monument to a man is a granite blnck or a marble shaft. They represent the dead man's money anil the kindness of friends. The true monument is what the man has accomplished in life. It may be a better gate, or house, or farm, or factory; put his name on it and let it stand for him. Receipts for Last Week. Receipts at Portland last week were: Cattle. i.V; calves, 16; hosrs. ()8fl; sheep. 40.m Cattle. Light receipts of cattle for the week, with good demand, prices being fully 2"c. higher on all grades. Top on steers $7.25 to $7.30; cows and heifers of best quality moving at -tti.OO. Hogs. Swine run also light, outlet broad and demand urgent, $8.75 was top first half of the week, but price rapidly climbing to the !tc. level, Ms two loads sold Friday at $8.90. The Outlook Is Bright Lebanon Criterion: "It has been several years since the republicans of the first district erf Oregon have had as good a trio of leaders in their political campaigns as is the ease this year. Dr. Withycomb for governor; F. A. Booth for I. S. senator, and .W. C. Hawley for member of congress is a showing ot strength that is seldom made in one campaign. It has st 'ongly appealed to the democrats that they are leaving no stone unturn ed to lessen the influence of the big three wherever the opportunity comes to them and they are not particular in their mode of attack. There is one thing sure that is the republicans of Oregon are in better shape for their campaign this year than for several years past, and there is little pros pect for the democrats to work in their usual stunt of party division, Our leaders are all good sound men and the narty is marching strongly united behind them. In Oregon that means victory." Queer Th ngs That Turn Up fa (he News Judge Nathaniel Hobbs, aged ninety, of York. Me., has returned from bia twenty-third annual fishing trip. Bigamist In Arkansas convicted of bavlng sixteen wives got seven and a half months in prison for each wife.

Lewis McDonald of Portland, Me., possesses a lobster whose smallest claw Is shaped exactly like an elk's antlers, and one part of the antler Is shaped exactly like a woman's foot THE PRAISE CONTINUES. Everywhere We Hear Good Reports of Doan'e Kidney Pills. Dallas is no exception. Every sec tion of the U. S. resounds with praise of Doan's Kidney Pills. Thirty thous and persons are giving testimony in their home newspapers. The sinceri ty of these witnesses, the fact that they live so near, is the best proof of the mirt of Doan's. Here's a Dallas case. Mrs. C. E. Graves, 121 Washington street, Dallas Oregon, says: "Kid ney trouble and rheumatism came on me and I gradually grew worse, until I could hardly endure the suffering. Dull pains settled in my back and across my kidneys. 1 bad sharp, shooting twinges all through my body. I tried a great deal of medicine but nothing eave me much relief until I began using Doan's Kidney Pills, They helped me from the first and soon had me feeling like a different woman. Doan's Kidney Pills have benefitted me in every way. They have improved my appetite and my weight has increased." Price 50c. at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that Mrs. Graves had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. Ross Nelson of Independence was a Sunday visitor in Dallas. THE CLASSIFIED "AD." In learning to utilize Class- ified Advertising, you take a "six-league" stride toward success I There are still some people living in Dallas ' and Polk county who have not learned to use The Observer's classified advertising columns. Thev know that there are "such things as "want ads," and probably assume that some people must find them useful. But. for some reason or other, they have not put these "ads" to the test of usefulness to themselves. These same people have "caught up" with events in many other directions. They utilize the telephone, the tele- graph, gas, electric light, the street cars. They adopt mod- ern conveniences for house- keeping. Thev utilize time and labor-saving appliances in business. But, having a task for a classified advertisement to do, they try to find some other way to accomplish it. If it is a renting task, they depend upon a placard. If it is a property selling task, they put up a "For Sale sign." If it is a position-finding task. they rely upon personal friends to help them. If they have furnished rooms to rent, thev nlace an advertisement in the window or over the door bell. When these people make their first successful use of want advertising, they acquire a new optimism. Irksome tasks become mere business matters. New possibilities without numlier open to them. They learn to utilize the "Six- League Boots" of publicity when occasion requires and every little daily problem be- comes manageable. The Ob- server is published Tuesdays and Fridays, and gives re- suits. It hu been proven. Perfect Scores Are Made.
