Brown, Dallal, Oregon. tf

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

this week being a sufferer from
lagrippe.

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.
