D J N'T MISS nils OPPORTUNITY, IRe M. Davis 304 South 6th St. HENEY WILL TRY HERMANN IN FALL The Oregonian of Wednesday pub lishes a Washington special con taining a letter from Attorney Gener al Wlckersham regarding the land- fraud cases and as some of these relate to Oregon defendants, they are important to our readers. "I have given general instructions in all case3 in which Mr. Heney Is retained to make careful examination of the cases and, if they cannot be brought to trial within reasonable time with any prospect of success, that the indictments be dismissed, and have caused some indictments to be dismissed under these instruc tions." Inquiry at the Department of Jus tice today brought forth the state ment that "Binger Hermann will be brought to trial at Portland early this coming fall. Mr. Heney will personally couduct the prosecution." No information was obtainable as to the case of J. N. Williamson or other land fraud defendants yet un tried. No specific date has been fixed for beginning the Hermann trial, it Is said. HELIOGRAPHS TO BE USED IN FORESTS An Experiment Which May Lead to Very Useful and Important Result. NO URGENCY SAYS GOYERKOR BENSON E-UU-SA-The nlv Lawful Pile Cure. Because E-RU-SA CURES PILES, and DOES NOT contain narcotics, mercury, cocaine, lead or any poisonous drug. U. S. Dispensatory recom mends every ingredient of E-RU-SA. Drug laws make "false and mis leading statements" a crime. Therefore, the sale of all other or narcotic pile medicines Is Illegal because they affect the brain and spinal marrow, produce constipation and never cure. E-RU-SA Is not for salo at opium loint8.

When the above dispatch was read to him last night, United States Dis trict Attorney McCourt said he had been Instructed by Attorney General Wlckersham several months ago to examine all the cases pending here and determine which of these could be brought to trial within a reason able time. Those that could not be disposed of without considerable de lay were to be dismissed. Mr. Mc Court said he had acted accordingly. He has investigated every case in his charge and has made recommenda tions concerning all of them. He was advised that a representative of the Department of Justice would ar rive here In May to pass upon these. This official will not bo able to come to Portland until September. Mr. McCourt says he is prepared to pro ceed with his cases when the term opens in October and tlint they will be disposed of at that time as order ed by the department. With regard to the Hermann trial, Mr. McCourt said It was the desire of the department that Mr. Heney should conduct that rase. This was Mr. McCourt 's wish also, for the rea son that Mr. Jfeney Is familiar with every phase of the rase, having per sonally examined many of the wit nesses, and knows also the theory under which he brought the action. Mr. McCourt, however, Indicated that In the event Mr. Honey's encase ments prevented his being here, the United States Attorney's nffl e would crtnduct the Hermann case. The Forest service Is giving out for publication the following import ant Information which will be read with Interest by all who realize the Importance of prompt efforts In sub duing forest fires. The experiments which are to be made this season in calling for help in case of fires In our great forests will be of the greatest interest and If they prove successful will be the means of sav ing millions of dollars. Experiments will be made during the summer with the staadard helio graphs which are now used In the War Department, for signaling on the national forests. One of these experiments will be on the Kanlksu National Forest, In Idaho, and the other on the Stanislaus Forest In California. it is Intended to discover whether those instruments will be of use on national forests to report fires or transmit other messages In areas where there is no quick method of communication. The conditions of climate and lati tude, as well as the species of inflam mable trees In the two forests are sufficiently different to determine whether the Instrument is suited to some' localities and not to others. Easy and quick communication to all parts of a forest must be had if fire Is to be kept down. Anyone who knows the fearful damage wrought by forest fires on private and un protected lunds each year, will easi ly see that through fire patrol, use of telephone lines and other means of communication such as Is main tained on the 105 million acres con tained In the national forests, the losses can be reduced to a minimum. For the administration and pro tection of the 148 national forests in nineteen states and territories and Alaska, the government spent $2, 526,098. (til, or about one and one half cents an acre for the calendar year 1908. Of this amount $r!2,- 169.19 was spent for permanent im provements including the construc tion of 3,400 mile of trails. 100 miles of wagon roads, 3,200 miles of telephone lines and 40 miles of fire lines. Under present conditions Govern or Benson will not call an extra ses sion of the legislature to yote upon the proposed amendment to the United States constitution authoris ing the enactment of legislation pro viding for a general Income tax upon corporations and Individuals. He said: "The point haj not suggested Itself to me In the light of being urgent enough to call the special session of the legislature. Unless some unfore seen contingency should arise which would warrant the calling of an ex tra session, which I do not anticipate. I should think the matter could Just as well wait the action of the next regular session. The calling of a special session to act upon the ques tion has not been urged upon me by any person or even suggested, and I do not see any reason for haste," ' BUY YOUR TkRKS FROM "Old Reliable Albany Nurseries" and you are sure of petting just what you order.

IUiow is a receipt for killing poi son Ivy taken from Hie Farm .Journ al. This method is quite as good for killing poison oak as Ivy. In using the fire remedy great care should lie taken not to allow the smoke to reach you as It will convey the poi son to the eyes and fa,-e. There Is considerable poison oak In this vicin ity and It Is highly desirable to get rid of It. "Every summer we receive a flood of Inquiries about 'how to eradicate poison Ivy.' There are various ways, but the following are the best we've ever found: "Concentrated sulphuric acid will kill poison Ivy. Dose each plant with a half leaspoonful to each stem, making the application during the growing season, every three weeks. If a large area Is covered by the plants, spraying with arsenate of soda (1 pound to 20 gallons of water) will kill all vegetation. One application if the plants are young and tender, will do this. In the mid dle of summer, however, they should be rut down first, and more than one application given. "Here's another way: A friend of ours puts straw along the stone fences, etc., Infested with poison Ivy, and then sets fire to the straw, re peating the operation at Intervals until the plants give up trying to grow. This Is easy, yet effective. Hy wearing gloves and approaching the vines on the windward side, no one should have any trouble In car rying out this treatment. I'se a long-handled pitchfork." "Itennl Culture" of Onions. Good crops of onions have been grown on a small scale by a peculiar system which may be called "board culture." Cue grower tried the plan last year on a patch of six or eight square rods, i lie onion IPM-i was prepared In the usual way with tlx rows 16 Inches apart. Onion sets of the large, while varieties were then pricked out about 0 Inches apart In the rows.. Hoard' a foot wide of the Bume length as the rows were placd between the rows, leav ing a space of 1 lti' h-s for the onions to c;row. The labor of keeping the ulnpts clean nnr! cultivated was very II :lit and a bl'j yield was gathered. About 700 feet of chenp boards were required. No doubt If the rows had been only 9 to 10 Inches apart, with fi-lnch boards between the rows, a imiii larg-r quantity could have b-n grown en Hie same land. NOTICE OF OFFICIAL SURVEY.
