It was a good sized audience that wit nessed a Cowboy's Girl at tbe new Vic tory Theatre last night, and to sit and watch the enthusiasm of the audience at the climatic (oints in this thrilling play was worth the price of admission alone. fan Jose Mercury, Jan. 18th The Multnomah county Granges are to be inspected by State Master A. T. Buxton, on the following dates: Even ing Star, March 2; Woodlawn, March Russellville, March 4; Columbia, March 5; Falrview, March 6; Multno mah, March 7; Rock wood, March 6; Pleasant Valley, March 8; LenU, March 9; Greshain, March 9. Several of the granges are to hold special meetings for these inspections, which will be the first ones to be conducted by the state grange. "The Missouri Girl" brought out the largest crowd ever seen at the Crescent Theatre, breaking all records. Tbe spe cial train brought 27 Irom Buxton, 74 from Banks, 22 from Roy and 22 from Harrison. Cornelius swelled the crowd with 39 and Forest Grove was represent ed by 25. Close to 750 tickets were sold. "The Missouri Girl" is all right and the best seen in this city since "Tbe Christian." Walter Beard was arrested and brought before Just tee Bagley this week on the charge of robbing William Thornburg in Banks saloon last Tuesday off (00. He was put under $1200 to appear be fore Justice Bagley tomorrow. A negro named Charles Patton, who has been in the employ of W. II. Lydia in a saw mill, was also arrested. He confessed that he had been given $140 of the $400 as a hush money. He was also arrested i i . and at his hearing was bound over in tbe sum of $500. As he could not raise the bond he is now in the county jail. To persons who are trying to main tain a lawn, dandelions are a source of work any annoyance. Cutting them. even below the surface, seems merely to have the effect of making them multi ply the faster. Dr. W, II. Evans, of the United States Department of Agricul ture, calls attention to the excellent re sults which he obtained by tbe use of gasoline. A spoonful of gasoline pour ed into the center of the head of each dandelion or chickory will destroy it root and branch within twenty-four to forty eight hours. At Dr. Evans' sug gestion the remedy was tried on dande lions and with perfect satisfactory re suits. The gasoline penetrates through out tbe plant even to the tips ol the roots, causing a slimy decomposition. Apprently, gasoline has some affinity for the milk or latex of these plants and follows the latex tubes through the whole piant. Grass and shrubbery are not injured by the gasoline unless it is carelessly applied in nndue quantities, it is worth trying, anyway. Here is a scheme for raising money fur charity. It worked fine in an East ern town and the dollars rolled in good and plenty, but was a surprise to many at the "end of the game": Nearly all the glddv youth of the neighborhood at tended the charity bazaar, and one by one they drifted to a stall where a tiny, shapely, scented, giay kid glove reposed on a satin cushion. Attached to the cushion was a notice written in a deli cate feminine hand which ran: "The owner of this glove will, at 7 :30 this eve ning, 1 pleased to kiss any person who purchases a twenty five cent ticket be forehand." Tickets were purchased by the score, and at 7 :30 a long row of sheepish, not to say doggish, young bloods, assembled outside the stall. Then, punctual to the moment, old Tom Porson, the local pora-miicner, w..u weighs two hundred and twenty pounds, and is almost as lautilui as a s:ue oi bacon, stepped to tbe irom i trie sibii. Now, young gems, ne sam. best "Buy, buy, buy," tones, "tnis ere glove Mongs to me. 1 Dougm u una morning. "Now, I'm ready for you. Come on I Don't 1 bashful I i 'ne at a time." But nobody came on. tx. A Dancing Party. Miss EtU Schulmerich gave a dancing party to her friends Saturday evening February 23, at Burkbalter'i ball in honor i f her 18th birthday.

The Federal Ture Food and Drug Act which went into effect January 1, 1907 subjects a'l manufacturers and dealers in food and drugs to severs penalties for adulterating or misbranding their prod ducts. The enforcement of this law will have the effect of driving out of inter state commerce much of the cheap worthless and spurious drugs with which the market has been flooded, and will enable us to give even better as suranco than ever to our rtrons as to the drugs we sell. OIB OOODS til'ARASTKD. All our goods are guaranteed to com ply with the requirements of the Pure Food and Dairy Act, ami our patron may therefore rest assured as to thei quality. The point aimed at in the law is to provide against iinarepresentation on the r.art of either maker or dealer, and also to give notice hen a prepara tion contains any one of the drugs nam ed below, with a view to protecting th the nser from the possibility of unwill ingly forming a drug habit. I'll A SO K IV LABKI.S. This law Provides, amongst other things, that any medicine or drug en terina into inter state commerce which contains alcohol or certain nar colics and anahretic dru?s named in the act, shall bear upon their labels a state ment of the amount of mca alcohol drug. The list of drui named in th act includes alcohol, niorpmne, opium cocaine, heroin, alpha or b-ta encaine, chloroform and cannabi indica, chloral ot acetanilide, or any derivative or pre' oaration of any such substani-e. In car rying out this requirement of the act will be necessary that chants be made in the labels of many proprietary pre parations In which some one or more of these druirs may he present. e w)a to call the attention of cur patrons the fact that such cl.au J may 1 looked for, and that the spiaiice of sue channes is not necessarily an indication of any change in tbe composition of th remedies. THE HILLSBORO PHARMACY. or Frosted Grain. Editor Independent: Have you look- 1 over your grain? The year P.M37 goes dowo as one that kills. Land with an astern and northern exposure has suf fered the mom from the hard freezing, and the low. wet ground from freeting nights and sunny days, in being pulled op by the roots after the hard freeiing weather had subsided. Different stages of freeiing, according to kind of grain and mode of seeding, Irom our regular winter wheal to our tendertst spring oaU. Fall oats have suffered iml vt. ) has had it, nip and tu. k. Oram seeded with a drill north and souih with the hoes in line have fared the best, being Uttered from the east wind, and at the aai time getting the sun's heat at in tervals. All of our freealng experiences have been different. Over twenty years ago we had a very bard freete, just after the heavy rains, which pulled nearly all the Krain out of the ground, and froze it too. One ol the worst experiences we ever had, thirty-two years ago, was when we had ths hardest weather and the cleanest freeze out. It commenced about Christ mas with a hard wind and the mercury went down to 10 degrees below xero, hard enough to freeze ears and noses, after which we had a snow that stayed on for six weeks and gave the sleigh bells a chance to jingle. The ground thawed out with a fresh w ind, leaving the dry land on the ridges frozen clean. Some on the moist low land and where it might be sheltered from the east wind by timber, was left. The frosts of those winters have had its victims, and the old settlers in the Columbia district, Tualatin plains, are conspicuous by their absence. In the winter of '75, attending Orange, at the Columbia Academy, some of us young chaps who had seen but few winters, were speculating as to the fate of our grain, most ot us thinking tho wet land would suffer most. Jakie Hoover, who could tell us a few things we did not know before, said, "Boys, I believe you are mistaken: tbe dry lana on ttie ridges will be frozen the worst." And be was right. And besides Jakie Hoover, we had Jakie Dobbins, Charlie Conklin, Corry, Johnston and McKay, of Glencoe, the latter no doubt the author of tbe name, being noted In Scotland as the scene of one of the worst massacre in the coun try's history, in the davs when Scotch men did things. Now they are the slowest people on earth. Then there was Ul's Jackson, the capitalist, and old Daddie Freeman, who claimed a word and a smile from most every one. And the Cornelius boys, one of them who is still living (Jonn, at Cornelius.) Benja min wat a pretty good sized boy, but could cut ud like a ten-vear-old. An-ial. thony Tongue, who beat the record for even deportment and who was a t) pical Johnnie Bull; Jim Imbiie, the aristo crat: Daddie Munroe, Michael Wren, and Jamie Burston, the most powerful man of the lot, and It is said that in early days he thought little of carrying 100 pounds of flour through the bracken from Oregon City. Jamie used to go down and help Davie Munroe with his heavwrilam cron. Just think of it thrashlug nearly a whole week on thirty acres. The oats on such land in those days were as rank and tangled with a good strong mixture of wild buckwheat and Spanish needles, with moist Sep tember nights, it took a man to handle it. Jamie could put close to 100 pounds on the feed board at one forkful, and little Ira Innes. who is also among the victims, would bear a hand to feed it Daddie Munroe liked to be kind without being caught at it, and stuck his apples in the bay cocks. He used to say "Col. T. R. C. was a good man ; yes, i aood man," as perhaps they all were, n.l nrnin. too. Of that we know but little. It is said some to honor and oth r tn ilinlinnor. but some of the most dishonorable seek the honor of men Bnt we have Henry Wooley, Chas. Mc Kennieand parents.and Preacher Jolly .wh onmnlKtes the list, "a sure bar vast and more to follow. What of the next thirty years? And nor country's destiny. Will some good man prescribe? No, he can't prescribe hi. own. The last thirty odd years have made many a change. Comestock i. in,, tha seat of transport. Th UV lUHftvi railroads have made a fair start anJ t i.t,u onrrant is on us. And wore in th, ma old winter days we .ild ait and chat lor a few hours w ith nt fear of the cow's tail getting muddy. Now, although we have a pretty Good kind of a Judne, and a sheriff with arms long enough to reach any of us w ithout getting off his chair, we must be good, and say our lesson every day. But I forgot Some one has said that Washington county was to grow into a a monstrocity in the milk business, with the electric cars to haul tbe tin. That A r ors-io".
