HASLAM, Pastor. ;punc)ettt0 AUTUCA9TLR HOW TO REDUCE TAXES. THE universal cry ia against high taxes. The cry should not be against high taxes, but against the corrupt use of taxes. The question of high or low taxes ia to some ex tent governed by the valuation put upon property from the public treas ury. Crush the socialistic, paternal fpirit growing up in this country. wtether in the form of the pork bar rel or government ownership of pub lic utilities. All such unconstitu tional doctrines and practices are in creasing the taxes to the breaking point. The continued excessive tax bur dens can be traced to certain abuses: First: Extravagant, complicated governments. The office seekers, of fice holders, and tax eaters have mul tiplied government machinery to per petuate themselves in office. If you would reduce the machinery and throw out of office the inefficient, rat- hole hunting office parasites you would reduce the cost of municipal, county, state and national govern ments 30 per cent. Today, you have about sixty cents of every dollar of tax money invested in government, and the other forty cents is repre sented by waste, fraud, inefficiency and graft. The bureaucracy of this country is curse to good government and a criminal expense upon the tax-ridden public. Simplify governmental ma chinery and put competent, trained, patriotic men in office, and taxes will be reduced 30 per cent, within a short time. Second: Destroy the spoils system. Elect or appoint men to office solely the ground of merit. Then you will get an honest day's work for true love of country and a just con sideration of the trust imposed. Third: Teach the people they must support the government and not ex pect support. ALL this talk about Pharoah'a curse killing the powerful Carnarvon, the man whose power of wealth and energy succeeded in bringing to light the grave of old Tutankhamen, may keep alive old superstition. The Irishmen may believe in th banshee and the laparhaun a little longer and the "coon carry an extra rabbits foot, but untruth never lasts, though often it serves a purpose. The dying of the English Earl was not in vain. in life he revealed to us a treasure of knowledge long buried from the inquiring mind of man, and in his death he showed the importance of the little thing. The mouse freed the lion. Maybe the clerk and the busy busineas man declines to hear a message of millions and of mo ment. If ye have ears, use tnem. Coming to THE DALLES and PENDLETON DR.

After removing the Infected crown and roots the soil may be replaced with good soil. The disease is caused by soil-inhabiting bacteria that get into wounds made for the most part In the underground parts of the plant. O. A. C. Experiment Station. The 200 million bacteria In every cubic inch of fertile soil are scaven gers disintegrating the organic mat ter in the soil and making plant food. Proper temperature and air condi tions are necessary for their growth. Don't forget to cultivate as much as possible while the moisture and tem perature conditions are favorable in order to secure a good stat of fer tility of the crop. O. A. C. Experi ment Station. The first drawn milk from th ud der is very poor in fat, generally less thsn one per cent. The last drawn milk is very rich, often testing from 8 to 10 per cent or even higher. O. A. C. Experiment Station. The snnual yield of both milk and fat by a eow normally increasea from th first lactation until ah is ma ture. The maximum yield is usually reached at 7 to yeara of age. A dairy cow on the average as a 3 year old may be expected to produce about 70 per cent; as a 3 year old around 80 per cent, and as a four year old about 90 per cent of th milk and butter fat she will produce under the same treatment when mature. O. A. C. Experiment Station. When the intervals of time betw-en milkings are unequal, cows generally yield a smaller amount of milk after the shorter period, but this milk is slightly richer in fat and total sol ids. O. A. C.

Union Pacific to Talk to Patrons Through Newspaper Advertisements The Union Pacific realizes that the good will of its pa trons is its greatest asset. It also believes that a success ful railway is the greatest asset to any region or commun ity which it serves. The Union Pacific wants its patrons to feel that the rail way is intimately interested in their welfare and that the road is built, equipped and operated especially to serve their transportation needs. The railway, like any other business, has its problems, some of which are not always thoroughly understood by the public. For that reason, the Union Pacific will pre sent certain of these problems from time to time, and endeavor to explain them, using only such statistics as are readily understood. Some of the topics suggested are : The Misunderstood Railroad Earning Guaranty. New Equipment and Capital Improvements for the Union Pacific. What the Union Pacific Pays in Taxes. The Railroad and the Farm. Preventing Accidents at Grade Crossings. Who Owns the Union Pacific? Expediting the Movement of Freight Cars. The Facts About Freight Rates. Where the Union Pacific Dollar Goes. Railroads Safe to Ride On, Unsafe to Walk On. It is planned to publish one of these short talks in the form of an advertisement about the first of each month in newspapers along the Union Pacific Lines. It is hoped that this method will tend to clarify some of the miscon ceptions about railway operation, and that it will serve to inform the public of the constructive things the Union Pacific is doing. Constructive suggestions will be welcomed. C. R. GRAY, President.
