I'axlitar SCHOOL OF OSTEOPATHY WHAT IT IS DOING ' I Tlio Story of It Discovery by Its Founder, Ir. Andrew V. Hi ill, unl Others. Osteopathy in the past few years has become widely known and under stood as a healing science. It has been but a HtW over thirty years since Dr. Andrew F. Still announced to his patients at Baldwin, Kan., that he had done with drugs forever, and that he had evolved a system of druRless healing. The theory of osteopathy has many versions but there is none that describe It more thoroughly or plain ly that the one given by its founder In his own characteristic language: "Osteopathy deals with the body as an intricate machine which, if kept In proper adjustment, nourish ed and cared for, will run smoothly Into a ripe and useful old age. As long as the human machine Is In order, like the locomotive or any other mechanical contrivance, it will perform the functions for which It was intended. When every part of the machine Is adjusted and in per fect harmony, health will hold do minion over the human organism by laws as natural and Immutable as the laws of gravitation. Kvery liv ing organism lias within It the pow er to manufacture and prepare all chemicals, materials and forces need ed to build and rebuild itself, to gether with all the machinery and apparatus required to do this work In the most perfect manner, produc ing the only substance that can be utilized In the economy of the in dividual. No material other than food and water taken in satisfaction of the demands of appetite (not per verted taste) can bo Introduced from the outside without detriment." Later authorities who have developed the science say the treatment means human Inter ference with the processes of dis ease In other word;"., taking a hand In the struggle that Is being waged between life-destroying and life conserving Inline! ces and .agencies for the purpose of preventing and remedying disease and relieving dis tress. Osteopathy is a system of rational therapeutics which (1) recognizes that resistance, relief and recovery tiro functions Inherent In the organ ization of living bodies and that u de viation from the state of health Im plies either Hi,, absence of sol f the natural Influences, agencies or conditions that maintain these fuue 'lons, or derangement In their struc tural orcanlc basis, and which I ) treats disease by employing a.; n me dics (a) the natural causes of nnnn 'I function, and (hi maiilmilat imi to restore normal anatomical relations. The science of osteopathy lias for Its especial province the Investiga tion, from all sides, of the processes and nicchnnlelsnis of health and healing, the determination ul t in i r natiirc and significance, their a uses and oiic,ln, their course, act; "ii and end. The science of osteopathy has for Its especial application t'v cor rection ot anatomical derangements that. Invite disease and obstruct re covery, and the establishment of the proximate causes of health and heal ing. Maintenance of health ami recov ery ftvin disease are caused by the operation of the protective and heal ing mechanisms of the body. These mechanisms are anatomical and physiological provisions. If the pro visions for defense were unlimited In their range of action and did not themselves become diseased, disease would be entirely prevented. If the provisions for healing were not limit ed In their scope, disease would be Invariably nnd completely cured. Furthermore, the normal operation of the mechnnlsms may be prevent ed by n derangement In their struc ture or Inadequate supply of the group of natural Influences and agencies which maintain their func tion. The osteopathic physician has come Into the professional life of the American people In the course of natural progress, and from natur al causes The time became ripe for a revulsion from the drug habit Into which the people had fallen. No other system of therapy ever gained public recognition and adoption so speedily or so fully. Within fifteen years the legislatures of forty one of the states of the 1'nlon have en acted laws pining the osteopathic jphjslclan on substantially the same lecal plane a the old s, hoot mv;kI! lionets, while court decisions In the IrcmnlnltK state have completed the legalization. ' Six thousand Rrndnatcs of osteo pathy nte already In the fi.-td. ptac j thing In every ntnte and territory I of the I'tilon. t'anada. Mcvln mid In the leading count tics of both Ocd- dent and OrInt. The treatment has gained the highest praise of the most ; Intelllent citizens of the nation. j Indeed, the demand for well-equip-; ped osteopathic physicians has been greater during 1909 than ever be fore. Lumber liuuling From Swede Itasin. J. R. Turner, of the Spaulding Brothers Lumber company, came in from the Swede Basin last week and will remain In town for some time; He came here to take charge of the tally and grading of the lumber as it arrives. The Spaulding company will deliver lumber at this point to the McKee Lumber company, who will receive it at the old Sugar Pine yards for shipment to Qulncy, 111. This contract for lumber is a large one and will require a considerable time to fill. Mr. Turner was asked about the disturbance in regard to the use of tne big traction engine on the pub lic road3 between this point and their lumber camp. He did not seem to regard the matter seriously as It was not possible that the county board would attempt to deny the lumber train the use of the public highway. Ho seemed to think the objection originated with the men who haul lumber with teams. He said there was a shortage of teams which to gether with the high price of this kind of hauling made it necessary to employ steam for this purpose. The Fjinding of the Pilgrims, On Saturday last there was ob served at the Alaska-Yukon-Paclfie exposition New Kngland Pay at which was Introduced the landing of the Pilgrim fathers. A vessel, modeled after the old Mayflower, had been constructed on Lake Union bearing a crew of 102 pilgrims, who represented the different people who made up the party of the origin al Mayflower. The ship landed Its passengers on a model of Plymouth Rock, located at the f oot of the Pay Streak at the Exposition. The party was dressed in the old pilgrim costumes and presented a quaint appearance as they landed from their ship. They were met by a party of Indians, who were se cured from one of the attractions of the Pay Streak for the occasion, and a pow-pow ensued which ended In the smoking of the pipe of peace. The party then marched through the grounds to the Puritan Inn, where they were served with nn old New England dinner. The bill of fare Included the well known Boston inked beans and brown bread. $100 ltFAVARI) $100.

Article No. 5. Water and Plant Growth. There are five conditions for the welfare and growth of a plant. We will name them in their natural or der of importance: Light, heat, water, soil texture, plant food. Of the first two essentials we are well provided in this section. We can to a certain extent, control the last three and the trick is turned. As we concern ourself only with the third item, lot us discuss the problem of furnishing water to the plant. The general conception is prevailing that the ideal way of watering is to imi tate nature's way that is sprinkle the water over the surface, in other words, let it rain. This idea is entirely wrong. Rain stops the growth of plants, or at least retards it. After the rain has dried off the surface then the mois ture absorbed by the soil does the work. A strong evaporation of the surface water lowers the fenipera ture of the soil below and is thus detrimental. A dry, finely cultivated top dressing of the land stops the evaporation and conducts both heat and air to the soil below and is beneficial. The biggest part of the work of water is not to supply the necessary moisture, the main work Is in the action on the physical and chemical condition of the soil. The farmer's success really Is dependent of his nowledge of all these things which o to produce the best possible con ditions for the production of plant growth. Plants, that la most of the plants useful to man, are originated In humid regions, and naturally do not grow well In hot and dry climates. The moisture evaporated from the foliage of plants Is greater than the capacity of the roots to absorb the moisture from the ground, and con sequently the plant will die. It Is really surprising what an amount of moisture will be evaporated by plants, or rather transpires from growing plants. By scientific ex periments it has, for instance, been demonstrated that from nn acre growing ordinary grass, cutting two tons to the acre, the dally transpira tion Is ft1" tons, or more than three times the weight of the hay trans pires dally. An acre of wheat will evaporate 2Un tons of water In a season. ,n acre if meadow grass .V.'" tons. The faster the absorption and evaporation takes place, the faster Is the growth of the plant. But If the evaporation exceeds the power of absorption by the roots, we must try to bring about a condition which will develop (he growing of the roots. Wet or saturated soil retards the development of the fine root fibres; well cultivated, half moist soil will make it tiy for the roots to spread In every direction. But the main function of the water Is not to supply moisture, as previously stated, but to assist In making the nourishing element of the soil fit for plant food nnd put them In proper condition for absorp tion by the roots. Apples Bring Bin Price. Whnt Is said to be the highest price ever paid for nn npplo crop anywhere hns Just been closed for the Hood River nnd Mosler Valley yields. J. A. Stelnhardt, of the fruit buying firm of Stelnhardt Kelly, of New York city, visited both districts the past week and con tracted for the entire yield of the Mosler and Hood River valleys at better than $2..".0 per box. As the total crop will run up to about tr0 carloads, the contract just made will put more than frtn.fioo Into the pockets of apple growers In these two districts.
