WOOL SHOWS A PROFIT.
Blue Mountain Eagle.
A Grant county woolgrower says
that regardless of the world condi
tions there is a profit in wool. Last
spring he borrowed 75 cents a fleece,
which showed that wool had a rec
ognized value. With this he paid for
his shearing, handling the sheep,
the shipping of the wool, storage,
cartage, insurance, commissions
and when he sold his clip and paid
off the six-bits a fleece, he had a
profit of $3.55. That's better than
being in the red.
Thanks very much," said the vi
car, as little Tommy handed up his
offering for the harvest festival. "I
must call 'round this afternoon and
thank your mother for these eight
beautiful apples."
"P-please, sir," stammered Tom
my, "would you m-mind thanking
her for t-twelve apples?"

POISON
in Your bowels!
Poisons absorbed into the system
from souring waste in the bowels,
cause that dull, headachy, sluggish,
bilious condition; coat the tongue;
foul the breath; sap energy, strength
and nerve-force. A little of Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin will clear
up trouble like that, gently, harm
lessly, in a hurry. The difference it
will make in your feelings over night
will prove its merit to you.
Dr. Caldwell studied constipation
for over forty-seven years. This long
experience enabled him to make his
prescription just what men, women,
old people and children need to make
their bowels help themselves. Its
natural, mild, thorough action and
its pleasant taste commend it to
everyone. That's why "Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin," as it is called, is the
most popular laxative drugstores sell.

Favorable Dairy and
Poultry Changes Seen
More butter and less oleomargar
ine is being consumed as a result
of the low prices prevailing for but
ter, according to a report of the
farm market situation just released
by the Oregon State college Exten
sion service. Manufacture of oleo
margarine has decreased and sur
plus stocks of dairy products are
relatively smaller than a month ago,
although milk production Is run
ning somewhat ahead of last year.
The number of milk cows Is now
estimated at 3 per cent greater than
a year ago and the cow population
of the country is expected to con
tinue to increase for some time.
However, the tendency to keep too
many heifer calves and old cows
has been checked. Conditions for
milk production may average bet
ter during the summer than a year
ago, although the condition of pas
tures on June 1 was not good in
most of the dairy Btates from Mich
igan through Iowa, Nebraska, Col
orado and California to the Canad
ian boundary. Conditions were gen
erally better than last year east of
the Mississippi,
Condition of hay crops on June 1
indicated a total output for the
country 10 per cent below average,
the report continues. This may af
fect dairy production next winter,
as the total stocks of old hay are
also light
Feed grain prospects vary. Bar
ley was In the lowest condition on
record on June 1. Corn was making
a slow Btart Oats prospects were
for an output about the same as last
year in the whole country.
The egg and poultry industry is
"working into the favorable situa
tion indicated by the February out
look reports," according to the state
college report. Surveys indicate
that about 5 per cent fewer hens
and pullets are now on farms than
a year ago, and storage holdings of
case and frozen eggs are materially
smaller than a year ago although
still above average. Poultry hold
ings, especially turkeys, are light.
