Umatilla county hai nominated a woman, Mrs. Ella Terpening, of Pen dleton, as a candidate on the Demo cratic ticket for state representative. Cottage Grove has two young people who have set an example in patriotism that many older ones might emulate. The two are Florence McFarland and John Van Northwick, each selling a cow to obtain money with which to buy a liberty bond. C. E. Albin was elected Mayor of Sulem Friduy over Frank S. Ward. Percy Varney and Joseph E. Wright will contest for the city marshalship in the general election, neither one of them having received a majority in the primaries as required by the city charter.' Hurrah! How's This Cincinnati authority say corns dry up and lift out with fingers. Ouch !?!?!! Thin kind of rough talk will be heard less here In town if people troubled with corns will follow the simple advice of this Cincinnati authority, who claims that a few drops of a drug called freozone when applied to a tender, aching corn or hardened callous stops soreness at once, and soon the corn or callous dries up and lifts right off without pain. He says freezone dries immediately and never inflames or even irritates the surrounding skin. A small bottle of freezone will cost very little at any drug store, but will positively remove every hard or soft corn or callous from one's feet Millions of America's women will welcome this announce ment since the inauguration of the high heels. If your druggist doesn't have freezone tell him to order a small bottle for you. Adv. Youth. Nora Do you think marriage is al S ways a failure? Ada Always a failure? Well, I should say not.

P. N. U. No. 21, 1918 Lawrence Middleton, aged 20, was instantly killed when the work truck he was driving was struck by a pas senger train at a crossing about a mile west of Merlin. Jack Beears, aged 9, who was riding with Middleton, was badly hurt, but it is believed he will recover. Application has been received at the state engineer's office from the city of Coquille for permission to appropriate five second-feet of water from the South fork of Cunningham creek, to be used as a city water supply. The town proposes to install a pipe line, one and one-fourth miles long, and the total cost of the new water system is esti mated at $5000. Mrs. E. Terpening, wife of a well known Lane county pioneer, died in the Mercy hospital in Eugene Saturday night as a result of burns she received when she crawled on her hands and knees through the flames of a Are which destroyed the Terpening resi dence near the city Monday night. Mrs. Terpening had been an invalid for two years and was unable to walk when her house caught fire. After suffering for two weeks from the effect of raw pork, Mr. and Mrs. Henry H. Frey, two Russians from St. Paul, north of Salem, died at the Wil lamette sanitarium Saturday night. Three of six children of the couple are also lying ill at the sanitarium and it is barely possible some of them cannot survive. Two other children were at tacked, but have recovered, while the sixth, a tiny infant, was not affected. A man named Coon, said to live at The Dalles, was drowned a few days ago in Snake river, below Huntington. With his brother, E. R. Coon, a rancher, with whom he was visiting, and John Tucker, he was fishing, their boat being tied to a cable running across the river. The boat was over turned by the swift current. The other two men managed to reach a small island whence they were rescued by witnesses of the drowning, but the via tim's body was carried down the river and has not been recovered. The Brownsville Canning company, with a plant at Corvallis and one in Brownsville, is making great prepara tions to handle the big fruit crop. A two-story addition to the large build ing is now nearing completion, and new offices are being built. The can nery has enjoyed a healthy growth and is handling more business irom year to vear. rne (.orvaiiis property was re. cently acquired, and machinery will be installed at once. The business ot the Corvallis institution will be handled from the Brownsville offices, with Chester Roche, lately of the Oregon Agricultural college, as manager. According to farmers near Browns ville, grain suffers more from aphis than ever before. Not content with having half ruined many a likely-looking war garden, the little green crawl ers have also been busily devouring the fields of vetch, and several farmers in that community report that their vetch crop is a total loss. What is more serious, they are now said to be attacking the grain itself in widely separated localities. In Brownsville every gardener is busy with spray pump and lime cup trying to save his peas and beans. Even the grass in the streets and alleys is covered with aphis. 'Lemuel Dunham, a logger, is in the Washington county jail on the charge of being a slacker, and will be turned over to Federal officers. His home is at Elma, Wash., and he admits that he did not register. One of the prominent fruit jar cap manufacturing concerns in a letter to Mrs. C. H. Jenkins, prominent mem ber of the Hood RfVer Womans' club, who has made a reputation for her canned products, declares that every effort is made to assure housewives of reliable rubber rings this year. Because the army was short or sig nal corps men who could take charge of the detachments of soldier-loggers sent to Marshfield for work in the woods, lieutenants of the infantry were (riven charge. Now that signal corps men have received proper training they are relieving the infantry officers. Completion of the reclamation of 1500 fertile acres of tule marsh along the border of Upper Klamath lake, five miles north of Klamath Falls, is announced bv J. Frank Adams, who has been engaged in this project for the past two years. Secretary Holt, of the state board of health, was in Salem Monday securing the governor's approval to a contem plated trip of Dr. A. C. Seeley, presi dent of the state board of health, to Washington, D. C, to attend a meet ing of the state and territorial health officers. Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound ed, brings oback the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streak ed or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make It at home, which Is mussy and trouble some. Nowadays we limply ask at any drug store for "Wyeth'e Sage and Sul phur Compound." You will get a large bottle of this old-time recipe Improved by the addition of other Ingredients for about 60 cents. Everybody uses this preparation now, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as It does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair dis appears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound is a lellghtful toil et requisite. It Is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of dis ease. Adv. Obstinate Melancholy.

Yakima The government will spend $500,000 in developing canals on the Wapato project within the next year. A telegram from Senator Jones Friday said congress had made that sum avail able to be spent immediately. F. A. Wiggins of Toppenish and others in touch with the situation say this will mean 20,000 more acres put in cultivation on the reservation for 1919. Superintendent L. M. Holt, In charge of irrigation development, will proceed immediately to organize crews to speed up construction, and will put on at once three drag line excavators and order another. The main canal will be extended several miles and the main lateral of the new system constructed this summer, as work on these will not interfere with the present distributive system. One machine working on drainage continuing work last fall was discontinued recently because the ap propriation was exhausted. This decision of congress to expend this sum for immediate construction is due to the fact that more acreage can be developed for crop production on the Yakima reservation for the same money than for any other place in the United States. The plan was approved by Charles Hebberd, food administrator. Call for Men is Urgent. Olympia Washington's state quota of the 60,000 men called under emerg ency orders from the entire nation is 250 men. They are to be selected from class 1 in proportion to the number of men held by local boards in that classi fication and are to begin entraining for Vancouver Barracks by May 20. Urg ency of the call is emphsized by War department directions for local boards to observe the exemption of farm la bor so far as possible, but to take such farmers as can best be spared if un able to fill their quotas otherwise. Traffic Records Broken. Vancouver, Wash. Last Sunday was a record-breaker for inter-state bridge tolls. The receipts on the bridge, exclusive of streetcar revenue, which will run between $500 and $600, were $931.10. Receipts one Sunday several weeks ago were $930.30. Re ceipts from the streetcars will bring the total up to more than ?16U0, it is thought. The fine weather was largely responsible for the unusually heavy traffic across the Columbia river.
