Some of them imagined there would not be sufficient for stock and household purposes. As a disclaimer of that idea Lloyd Wood side has personal evidence that con dition.'; were not as bad as painted. One day liwt week he was moving his combine to the Koy Batty ranch. Filtering a particular field the com bine went to the hubs in mud, the plunge requiring the a.tir,Unec of several additional hordes for ex trie a- "" j tion. That is an evidence the soil on Much has betn written concerning the Flat holds moisture to a great x- Inn .nl it iah at t It U aninil ia mat- ! kit mad and much profanity has withered the gras. along that route. Recently The Time,) man made a trip over the road and when he returned home was ready to take well-earn ed rest. Why is it not fixed up? is the question. Here is that reason: About the time the cut-off road was graded members of the jitate highway commis ion signified a will ingness to take over the market road and make it a part of the cut-off highway, even going so far, so we are informed, as to entr into an agree ment with the Wasco county board to make the move. Later one mem ber of the state hoard suggested that a new road be constructed, that to run from the Brown service station diagonally aero. a the country to connect with the Dalles-California highway. Awaiting the state's action the county board has not made any move to remedy the condition ot the market road, with the consequent re sult that that part of the county's road system is in a deplorable condi tion. When the state make a move to take the road over and make it a part of i the state (ystem, then, and we think, then only, will travel over the market road be made with any degree of comfort and ease.

And, deservedly J a sample of what others receive." The above, and many more commendations, show the relation in which we stand to the business interests of Southern Wasco County.

Recently she discovered a ttrangc bush in her flower garden. She watered it and took care it was not injured. It grew and thrived.

Suddenly he awoke to the fact he had stcepped through a hole in the walk, which caused the rip and bruise.
