rp -innL J0Efl 8 LOCfi AND STATE NEWS s 1 -rnrw-iT I r '1 Tonight the Dramatic Club en tertains in the Normal Chapel. Abstracts promptly furnished at reasonable rates, by L. D. Brown, Dallal, Oregon. tf Allen Clark, Lindsay & Com pany's clerk, has been laid off du ty this week, having contracted a severe cold. Mrs. Addie Shore, one of the members of the Golden Rule Bible Class, is suffering from a siege of lagrippe. S. H. Peterson, who has been ailing for some time, is still on the sick list remaining in about the same state of health. G. A. Peterson purchased a fine driving horse a few days ago for family use. The animal is younp and Mr. Peterson is highly pleased with his purchase. The long severe winter has sent the price of hay soaring in North Eastern Oregon. Wheat hay commands 18 dollars and timothy hay 20 dollars a ton in Umatilla county. Rev. W. W. Davis has secured a house and lot in Monmouth and some 30 acres of land near Cor vallis from E. W. Strong. He traded property at Alsea for his new possessions. Mr. Davis wi move his family here in a couple of weeks. The Newberg basket ball team which was scheduled to play the High School team here last Sat urday evening arrived on time and defeated the home boys in a score of 1G to 15, The Monmouth boys have played loser the last two games. Most of the score made by the Newberg boys was the result of fouls. W. II. Whiteaker was in town Monday looking after interests connected with the oil well which is beinrT sunk on his father's place some three miles Northwest of town. From Mr. Whiteaker we learned that a depth of (5G4 feet had been attained and that excellent prospects had appeared, and he seemed to be very sang uine as to what the future would bring to the surface. We notice considerable paper is being thrown upon the streets t hese days and a word in regard to it might not be out of place here. Often we do things thoughtlessly that may result seriously to some one else per haps to self. The other day we observed the wind whisk a large piece of paper toward a team standing in the street; the horfces did not like it at all, and had they been a little more spirited they would have been on the run at once. The habit of throwing paper on the street may cause some one injury. M. M. Jones hailed us the other day to give us an item of the in dustry of his hens since the New Year started in. Mr. Jones has alx ut 80 pullets and during the first two weeks in this month ho marketed $15.00 worth of eggs. Rev. Hoover has also been gainer by a good supply of eggs since the New Year started, but there are other poultry owners who have not so been blessed, which reminds us that perhaps the New- Year resolution or the feed proposition has entered into the production of hen fruit. Some may have resoluted to produce while others resolved not. to do so, but we opine that the quantity and quality of the feed has a very marked effect upon the product ion of a hennery. Now vou have read the local news look at the Furniture Store Harry Lucas was laid off work this week being a sufferer from lagrippe. Mrs. B. F. Bowersox was one of the sufferers from cold but has recovered. Mr. and Mrs. D. L. Aiken's home was blessed by the arrival of a son Tuesday morning. Mother and child are doing nice ly. Quite a good many citizens of Monmouth have been attending the revival services at Indepen dence. On Wednesday night there were 18 conversions mak ing a total of 180 up to that time, On last night the gasoline motor made a couple of trips from Mon mouth, carrying persons to at tend the meeting. T. J. Craig, A. L. Finley, C. E Clodfelter. Mrs. E. E. Little, of Portland, and R. C. Atwood and wife and Miss McPhrson, of Wasco, were in attendance at the funeral of Mrs. E. S. Cattron, Tuesday. Rev. Poling of The Dalles who held the funeral ser vice before leaving the home, came also. Mrs. Cattron leaves a husband and two small daugb ters to mourn their bereavement W ' mm II mm 10m Royal Worcester Corsets We have just received another shipment of Royal Worcester Corsets Eight Cow Bring Nice Income That there is money to be made in the dairy business has long since been proven, but we believe the coming of the creamery and its attendant separator, has been an especial boon, to the small dairies. The following item is taken from the statement G. G. Hewitt received from the Mon mouth Creamery Company for cream sent to the company dur ing the month of December 1909, and shows a very comfortable in come from a few cows: Number of cows milked, 8; pounds . of cream produced, 749; amount of butter fat, 272. IG pounds; size of check, $107.65. Mr. Hewitt fed his cows eight pounds of rolled vetch seed sceenings and 20 pounds of kale a day, and beside this they had all the vetch hay they would eat. For the 31 days of December this makes an average of about one and one-third pounds of but ter fat a day per cow, and as the price was 40 cents a pound dur ing nearly all the month, the average amount received per cow was $13.45. This makes a very nice income from a small dairy. These are unquestionably the Best Medium Priced Corsets Made. We have a Model for nearly every Figure, including several new direc toire styles which are in accord with the very latest style tendency. V. F. DANIEL Monmouth, Oregon f! X7.
