Bulletin :-
Mr. and Mrs. C. P. White came up
from Albany Sunday for a few days
visit.
Mrs. M. K. Boyle died at her home in
this city Wednesday mornine at about
8:30 o'clock, after an illness of about
three weeks.
The tax levy for Harrisburg will be
22 mills this coming year. It is divided,
5 mills for city purposes, 2 mills for
Bchool, and 12 mills for the county.
This is the heaviest tax to which this
town has ever been subjected.
W. W Francis, county treasurer,
was in town yesterday shaking hands
with old friends. He has a warm spot
in his heart for Harrisburg as he spent
' many a day in sight of its church towers.
! Mrs. Carter Allingham probably has
the distinction of receiving a Christmas
present from the longest distance o f
any arriving in this county. It came
' all the way from Ireland and was sent
ly a friend. The present consisted of
.50 yards of fine linen and two doilies.
I The big booster meeting next Mon-
' day will be addressed by the biggest
i booster in the Willamette Valley, John
H. Hartog, of Eugene. We are not
forgetful either of the good work of
Rrnthar Dasent and the triad hand Al
bany extends. They are all glad old
Harrisburg is going to do something.

The Review:
Albany, our old home town, is getting
too swell for us. Had it not been for
our friend Fred Nutting, of the Demo
crat, we would sure have gone to Leb
anon, but Fred didn't say a word about
it, With sfcven.or eight passenger
trains at the fine new union depot Al
bany has a metropolitan appearance.

A New YEAR'S ARGUMENT
in favor of home happiness and embel
lishment is strongly made by our beau
tiful stock of china and crockery. The
1 ove of fine tableware is born in every
t rue woman, and most housekeepers
like to refill or replenish their china
closet on New Year's. Our assortment
of new pattcrrs and shapes is so varied
and complete that you cannot fail to
find what you want whether a set or
odd pieces. And our prices are such
that you can furnish your New Year's
table with new dishes at an absurdly
small cost,

more money. Isn't that fruit
growers' reasoning? Nothing
will contribute to this end more
than effective spraying. And
Effective Spraying can best be
attained with
Bean Magic
Spray Pumps
Effective spraying means
High Pressure Spraying and
till the advent of the Bean
Magics a high pressure could not
be maintained with a hand pump
for any length of time, on account
of the body-racking effort
needed to operate it. ' The Bean
patent spring divides the work
between the two strokes of the
handle and works against only
one-half the pressure shown on
the gauge and saves exactly
one-third the labor. , i
