He reports about 15 inches, of solid snow at his place below Parkers Mill, and about the only way to 1,251,207 barrels, or 5,421,897 bu shels.

The unusually depleted supply situation has brought with it high er wheat prices for the Pacific northwest farmer than at any oth er point in the country, Pacific coast quotations now running about 7 cents a bushel higher than Chi cago or any other primary market in the world.

John Day Motor License CHILDREN CRY FOR IT OIIILDREN hate to take medicine as a rule, but every child loves the taste of Castoria. And this pure vegetable preparation is just as good as it tastes; just as bland and just as harmless as the recipe reads. When Baby! cry warns of colic, a few drops of Castoria has him soothed, asleep again in a jiffy. Noth ing is more valuable in diarrhea. When coated tongue or bad breath tell of constipation, invoke its gentle aid to cleanse and regulate a child's bowels. In colds or children's diseases, you should use H to keep the system from clogging. Castoria is sold in every drugstore; the genuine always bears Chas. H. Fletcher's signature.
