To raise better crops by cul
tivating more and raising less
weeds. It will pay you to in-
vest in a JONES' WEEDER. I
This machine has been greatly
improved this year and will dc
a great factor in bigger crops.
Built in sections like a harrow,
each section cuts 5 feet. You
can use as many sections as
needed, six horses pull 3 sec
tions cutting 15 feet. Abso
lutely the best machine ever
built for cultivating summer
fallow, does the work speedily
and thoroughly. Get a JONES
WEEDER before the weed3
get big and ruin your summer
fallow.

century by setting a price on
their product which, if not ac
cepted by the wool grower, they
would invariably have to take
less.
"Fourth: ' They waut to see
Portland a wool center where
their wools will be practically at
home and placed in competition
with the world's market values;
and last, but not least, they want
to see looms and spindles id ao-
tion in and arouDd Portland,
where cloth can be made from
pure wool labeled, 'Made in Ore
gon from Oregon Product,' in
place of sending our good, virgin
wool back to Boston and getting
in return clothing with a little
Oregon wool mixedin to keep the
rags and shoddy together that
may have been made from wool
grown on sheep owned by father
Abraham. Now I know, and
fancy I hear, some pessimists
pooh poohing such an idea. But
it is not so very long ago the
same class of people did not
think it was possible to make
even bacon on this coast, but
must needs send our hogs, cat
tle and sheep back to Omaha and
Chicago in order to get pork in
to bacon, beef into pickle, and
mutton to take its place at the
head of the list as being the most
heahhful and least diseased of
all meats for human cousumption
Conditions are now changed in
this respect by having packing
houses capable of utilizing all the
meat products grown on this
coast.
"In conclusion I will say that
it is not my purpose to champi
on the cause of the sheepmen in
all they do or have done, they,
being human, are likely to err
as the rest of mankind, but are
fairly well able to fight their
own battles as they have in the
past. Since the days when Gif
ford Pincbol created the impres
sion in the East that the Western
sheep was built after the pattern
of a giraffe prowling through the
forest seeking every pine tree it
might devour, and Roosevelt en
tered the White House with a
cowboy's predjudice against
sheep and sheepmen, determin
ed to wipe off that old score that
had been rankling iu the cow
man's breast ever 6ince little
David with a slingshot slew that
great and mighty chief Goliath,
A PRINCESS'
CHOICE
Br RUTH GRAHAM
There was once a king who governed
a land so rich ami was so powerful
that an Hllianee with his family was
considered desirable by all the other
potentates. The king had one child, a
daughter, who was of a marriageable
age, but up to the time she was twen
ty years of age she had been kept
awar from the outside world, shut up
In a wing of the palace. No one had
even seen her excepting her family
and a limited suit of attendants.
On her twentieth birthday her fa
ther sent a letter to several neighbor
ing monarcbs stating that his daugh
ter would correspond with any man of
royal blood suitable to become her hus
band and that she would marry some
one of these correspondents, provided
be was willing to marry her. He was
not to see her till after he hod been
selected for her consort, and if after
seeing her he was not minded to mar
ry her he would be excused from do
ing so.
A number of princes entered the lists
and wrote letters to the princess. Most,
of them expatiated upon her beauty,
which they had never, seen, comparing
her to the full moon, to a fountain
flashing In the sunlight, to the fairest
flower that had ever grown upon the
earth.
There was one correspondent, sign
ing himself Carolns, who did not refer
to any physical beauty that the prin
ce's might possess or to other attri
butes, such as modesty, good sense or
a kind heart. He wrote of such
traits as he would value In a wife.
"If you possess these," he added. -"you
are a treasure to any man, but no man
Is worthy of you."
The princess threw the letters from
.those who flattered without having
seen her Into' the wastebasket, but she
was touched by the one from this man
who valued mental rather than phys
ical traits. She replied to his epistle,
stating that she was most affected by
his placing a bitrn value on a sympa
thetic heart. She desired a husband
who would be sympathetic with her,
as she would sympathize with him.
Prince Carolus believed he had
struck the chord that would win him
the princess. So he wrote her a second
epistle expatiating upon tenderness
of heart, exalting it above all other
virtues. He was sure that If he mar
ried her he would feel for her In all
her troubles for even royal persons
have them and he had no doubt that
she wAld resp'ond In kind.
Therlncess, was about, to Invite
Trlnce Carolus to an Interview when
a letter came from another royal per
sonage who signed himself Alanthus.
Alanthus said that, while he would
gladly become the husband of a prin
cess who would Inherit a kingdom, be
must know before he entered the lists
for her hand what drawbacks there
might be concerning her. lie suspect
ed from the fact that a suitor would
not be permitted to see her that there
was some physical blemish about her
