Over a million and a quarter board feet of wood is used annually in the mines of Oregon for props, lagging, ties, and riffle boxes. Oregon consumes 536 board feet of lumber per capita annually. In 1914 in the construction of ships at the ship building yards of Oregon and Washington, nearly 13,- 000,000 board feet of high grade lumber and timbers were consumed. Australian ironback contributed 35, 000 board feet to this total. To repair the spokes, tongues and reaches of broken wagons, the black smiths and wheelwrights of the towns and cities of Oregon and Washington used over 400,000 board feet of oak, ash, hickory, etc. The average cost per thousand board feet of this raw material was over one hundred dollars. A new process of ereosoting Doug las fir has recently been developed which does not impair the strengtli of the timber. Public Corporation Value Raised. Word from Salem has reached Heppner that the value of public ser vice corporation properties has been raised in Morrow county, over last year's figures about $100,000. This will make a noticeable increase in tax money. Catholic Church Services. First Mass, 8 a. m. Second Mass, 10:30 a. m. Christian Doctrine, 11:30 a. m. Evening Devotions, 7:30 p. m.

"Sir," said the young man, witli much respect, "I know that you are a millionaire and that I am poor. It seems presumptuous in me to aspire to the hand of your daughter. But I have thought the matter out and with some diffidence I have resolved to make my request. Love, sir, is not bound by sordid considerations, or by mere social conventions. I have very real attachment for your daughter, and I pray that you will put no obstacle in the way of our early marriage." The old man seemer interested in the young fellow and inclined to lis ten. "Quite so," said he. "As you know I am not in the habit of sticking at trifles, providing the main purpose is straight. But which of my girls do you want?" The young man breathed a sigli of relief, and courteously replied, "Oh , I'll leave that to you, sir." Glas gow Times. ! ! ! ! It Was the I list Time.
