STORING AWAY WHEAT
DALLAS FLOURING MILLS BUST
THESE HARVEST DATS.
Seven Thousand Bushels Received and
More Is Coming From Conn
try Daily.
To get an idea of crop conditions in
Polk county and to compare the wheat
grower's income this year with that
of last year, a visit at the Sweeney
brothers' flour mill is valuable. Ac
cording to the millers they have re
ceived at least four times as much
grain this season as they had at a
corresponding date last year, although
practically the entire crop of this dis
trict was handled through the local
mill last season. To date, the man
agers estimate, they have taken in
7000 bushels of wheat and have been
so rushed in handling it that they have
had no time even to think of oats, of
which there is an unusually large
crop. Wagons are discharging their
loads ot wlieat m rapid succession
throughout the day, while all hands
at the mill are busy storing it away
until winter, when the machines will
have a season's work, running at full
capacity, to grind the grain into flour.
In September last year the price of
wheat had reached about its limit in
75 cents at the mill. In contrast, the
price this week is close to 90 cents,
and, if predictions hold good, will ad
vance to $1 before long. Flour, the
final product, has also brought joy to
the millers. A year ago at this time
flour was selling for about $4, while
this year, with a brisk demand to
keep it moving, the price ranges
'round $5.25. Sweeney brothers have
just cause for rejoicing.
ARMED MOBS TERRORIZE.
Texas Fears Wholesale Slaughter by
"Army" of Liberation.
Dispatches from the Mexican bor
der tell of a running fight between
Mexican bandits and a group of sold
iers and Texas citizens, near Browns
ville yesterday. Three bandits trom
a band of 35 were killed and the band
retreated across the river where at
least 100 were added to their strength,
which has put American forces on
their guard to anticipate further trou
ble. A reign of terror prevails along the
border and practically every able bod
ied man in three counties is armed,
and fearful of a wholesale massacre
by the Mexicans should the United
States attempt to intervene in the
southern country. The Mexicans will
at least try to seize a part of the
state of Texas, is the opinion of many
along the border. The Mexicans call
ing themselves the "army of libera
tion for Mexico," are rapidly gaining
reenforcements, and are pledged to
kill every American of 16 years of
age, according to reports that have
reached Brownsville. Governor Fer
guson, giving ear to these statements,
has asked the United States to rush
additional troops to the border and is
encouraging the formation of armed
bands for the protection of homes and
families in case of attack.

Meteoric Showers Predicted By Bren
nan Seen Wednesday Night.
The showers of meteors predicted
for Monday night failed to material
ize, but Father Martin S. Brennan,
professor of astronomy at Kenrick
university, Missouri, did not miss his
date only two days, for on Wednesday
night there was quite a display vis
ible in this section. The display is
known as the Perseids and will last
throughout the nights in the vicinity
of Polar star. The meteors are the
remnants of a comet known as Cymet
3, 18(52, which is thought by scientists
to be the oldest comet m the solar
system. This comet "died of old
age," according to astronomers and
lost its compact neuclus, and finally
became attenuated through the length
of its orbit. Each year this planet
passes through its orbit.
CoL Jackson Is Injured.
Colonel James Jackson, United
States army, retired, and inspector-
general of the Oregon National liuard
and who is well known to many in
Dallas, refused to prosecute Harry
Hanson, driver of the automobile that
ran into and injured him at Portland
Tuesday afternoon. Colonel Jackson
is thought to be out of danger of ser
ious hurts from the accident. "He
was driving careful.lv, but lost his
head a little when I grasped the fen
der, and did not put on the brakes in
time, said Colonel Jackson.
' Sunday Funerals No More.
There will be no more Sunday fu
nerals in Salem, on or after August
15, according to an agreement among
undertakers, sextons, ministers and
liverymen of the city, which has just
been completed, and will apply to all
except contagious cases, says the
Statesman. The vogue for a cessation
of Sunday funerals has been adopted
in Portland. San rrancisco and Uak
land during the last few years and
has been longer in effect in eastern
cities. It was started in Salem by C.
B. Webb.

Motor Cars,
"Cup of Life" Tonight
If von want to aee two of the finest
productions in motion pictures don't
fail to see the "Cup of Life" tonight
and "The Man of the Hoar" tomor
row night at the Orphenm and at the
low price of 5& and 10c.
Extensive changes are being made
in the mechanism of the McKeen mo
tor cars, in use on the Southern Pa
cific branch line between Dallas and
Salem, to equip them for the use of
distillate in place of gasoline. As a
result or tests made by the company
it has been found that distillate is
very economical as a fuel, and just as
satisfactory as gasoline, and this
change has been ordered on all cars
of the type in use here. The expense
is great, but the advantage gained and
the economy effected by the rebuilding
more than offsets this feature.
The change means the replacing of
the carburetors in use on the cars with
one of different design, one which will
feed the distillate into the engine. A
different throttle must be used,
in fact the entire mechanical arrange
ment will be changed. In addition to
the changes made a number of safe
ty appliances will be added to the
equipment of the cars and will include
a hand-operated brake in the rear ot
the passenger compartment. A. S.
Green, an expert at such work as is
being done here, came to Dallas from
the Brooklyn shops in Portland to di
rect the work of alteration and, with
a capable force of assistants, com
pleted the first car yesterday. The
motor car equipment in ,use on the
line between Dallas and Salem in
cludes three 70-foot cars of a modern
type, and the rebuilding of their en
gines will cost the Southern Pacific
company several thousand dollars be
fore the work is completed. One car
at a time is rebuilt so that there will
be no interruption to the sen-ice.
Insane Woman Taken to Salem.
Mrs. Hattie Holland, laboring under
many delusions, was brought to- Dal
las yesterday from Spring Valley by
members of her family. Sheriff Orr
took charge of the woman and notified
the authorities at Salem to send at
tendants for her. In the meantime
the sheriff and others stood close
guard over the patient, since the coun
ty has no woman's ward or padded
cell in its jail. At the appointed
time the attendant hadn't appeared,
and the guards continued to wait.
The last train of the evening brought
no one to accompany the woman,
Sheriff , Orr bundled her into his ma
chine and took her to Salem himself.
Mrs. Holland is not violent, but just
mildly deluded on a number of things.
She leaves a husband at Spring Val
ley and is the mother of two children.
Miss Jackson Goes to Idaho.
Miss KutlJackson, a graduate stu
dent of O. A. C, receiving a master's
degree in agriculture, has been elected
to head that department in the Idaho
Stale Normal at Albion, at a very at
tractive salary. Miss 'Jackson has
been associated with some or the
leading specialists of the United
States department of agriculture in
various phases of agriculture, and has
done much practical work here as the
basis for her degree. Times Gazette.
Quail Are Numerous,
That Bob White quail are becoming
plentiful in this county is the state
ment of sportsmen. According to a
prominent sportsman of Dallas the
birds may be seen in large numbers
in the fields and people driving along
country roads can hear their whistle
frequently. A few years ago these
birds were scarce in this section of
the state, but in the past five years
they have inci eased in number rapid-
Semi-Weekly Lectures.
Last Monday the Adventist tent at
the corner of Mill and Shelton streets
was taken down and shipped to Port
land. At the closing meeting it was
announced that Friday and Sunday
nights of each week there would be a
lecture in the Adventist church. The
subject announced for tonight is "Ap
proaching Armageddon." A song ser
vice will precede the lecture.
West's Picture on Capitol Walls.
A fine oil painting of former Gov
ernor West has been hung in the house
of representatives at Salem. The work
is different trom the many pictures
that are hung on the same walls, and
in the background shows the granting
of woman suffrage in the state. Ihe
painting is by John Trullinger of As
toria.
THE BIS KMC HUNTER PROVES THAT HE KNOWS THE REAL ,' J ,
gTOBACCO CHEW.
No Loss of Timber This Tear.
Favorable weather conditions and
careful preparations for the season
are the chief factors which have so
far made for a clean record on the
part of patrol organizations in the
forests of this state during the pres
ent season. Reports recently received
by the Western forestry and lonser
vation association, from all protec
tive agencies in the state, show prac
tically no loss of timber through fires
iin to the present time. In spite of
the prevailing favorable conditions
the almost care is exercised and urged
by all agencies to prevent damage
during the next month.

ALL, around you, men are
talking about it. You, your
self, are probably telling your friends
about the Real Tobacco Chew.
No user wants to see his friends go
without it because it gives a man real
tobacco satisfaction and comfort.
A little chew of pure, rich, mellow tobacco seasoned
and sweetened just enough cuts out so much of the
grinding and spitting.
THE REAL TOBACCO CHEW IS NOW CUT TWO WAYSII
W-B CUT IS LONG SHRED. RIGHT-CUT IS SHORT SHRID.
Take leas thin one-quarter the old size ehew. It
will be more satisfying than a mouthful of ordinary
tobacco. Juat take a nibble of it until you find the
strength chew that suits you, then see how easily and
evenly the real tobacco taste cornea, how it aatisfies,
how much le3a you have to spit, how few chews you
take to be tobacco satisfied. That's why it is Tht
Real Tobacco Chew. That's whv It ousts leu in tha and.
The taste of pure, rich tobacco does not need to be covered up. An
excess of licorice and aweetcaing makee you apit too much.
One small chew takes the place of two big
chews of the old kind.
