Tire Same Old Story
. A. Kelly relates an experience sim
ilar to that which has hnypnedln almost
every neighborhood in 1H United States
and has been told and rvtokl'bv thous
ands of othe-e. "Last summer I had an
attack of dysentery and purchased a bot
tie of Chamlwrlain's Colic Cholera and
Uiarrlxva Remedy which I used accord
ing to directions and with entirely satis
firtry results. The trouble was controll
ed much quicker than former attacks
when 1 usel other remedies." Mr. Kel

products of 45,000 hng packed lo
oally. The available- raarkef for
local packing-houses comprises, be
sides the 12,000,000 pounds of lardj
lmnw-arHi. bacon distribute! in the
state j. 3b',000,000 pounds of the
sihw product that Chicago, Kansas
City and' Oinah are sending: to
Piiget Sjund and Alaska. A rap
idly growing trade beyond the
Pacific is available for Portland
packers if establishments of ade
quate capacity were here to handle
it. Greatly increased stock yard
facilities and large packing-bote
are-reqpirat to- handle this indus
tryj for w-hich Portland offers ad
vantages superior to those of any
other city on the Pacific- Coast.
The same paper, after having
made direct inquiries of and receiv
ed replies from a large number of
representative farmers in Eastern
Oregon and Eastern Washington,
is of the opinion that, with proper
facilities for handling the output,
and a market established on the
same stable basis that they are at
Missouri river points, the country
east of the Cascades would send to
Portland, annually, 2,500,000 hogs
Continuing the article says: ,
"The hog-feeding possibilities of
fell tbat vaet wbeatraising territory
are unknown and impossible in the
eorn raising and feeding states of
the East Scores of Eastern Ore
gon wheatgrowers have given it as
their experience .that every 160-
acre wheat farm can produce 50
Bogs that will weigh 250 pounds
each when 10 mouths old. without
a dollar's worth of merchantable
wheat having been put into- them,
these farmers last year- sent id
market carload after carload of fat
hogs that had spent their entire
life upon the volunteer fields of rye,
wheat and barley and on the stub
ble fields. Such men, by boring
wells, and fencing to restrain the
hogs, have solved the problem of
saving the waBte which modern
methods of wheat harvesting en
tails. This experience means that
the many millions of acres of wheat
land tributary to Portland may in
the near future send 2,000,000 hogs
to this market, even though eveey
bushel of merchantable wheat be
also sold! But sections of wheat
country that are a loDg distance
from a railroad are already increas
ing the hog output by feeding-good
wheat. Experience has shown
many, wheatraisers that when hogs
are worth 4 cents a pound, wheat
can be marketed through those an-
-imals for 75 cents a bushel. Hogs
now bring 6 to 7 cents."
While part of the above may he
a little in excess of reality there is
no doubt but that the establish
ment of extensive stock yards and
packing-houses at Portland would
prove a powerful incentive toward
extending the bog industry of Ore
gon and. in this section at least,
thai industry has already been
proven to be the best line of busi
ness in which the farmer can en
gage. Let Portland furnish the
packing-houses and stock yards
and Eastern Oregon may be de
pended on to furnish her share of
fat hogs and cattle to- keep them
sunning.

slightest trace of adulteration, but on the other hand is composed of the beet
of malt and and choicest of hops. Its tonic qualities are of the highest and it
can be used with the greatest .benefit and satiefhetion by botH oM and young
Its nae can conscientiously be prescribed by the physicians with the certainty
tbat a better, purer or more wholesome beverage could not possibly be found."
