SCHOOL M E QUITS DAVENPORT 10 IRY FARMING AT BUTTE FALLS "John A. Appleby, of Davenport, Wellington, has rented 20 acres In the tJuttc Falls district and will movo thereon with his family In a mouth or so. Mr. Appleby hns bcon engaged In grai and hog raising In the vicinity of Davenport for a number of years and succeeded fairly well, notwith standing many adverse circum stances. Ho prefers tho cllmato of Southern Oregon and particularly that of Itoguo river valley. Hence, the change. Ho will soil his real cs tato In Washington as early as It can be dono advantageously. "Itoguo river valloy farmers are laboring under disadvantages, also," said Mr. Appleby yesterday while dis cussing n comparison of tho two sec tions Involved In this transfer. "They are somewhat handicapped by tho long haul for all of their perishable farm products, as well as In tho mat ter of marketing their stock. So aro tho Davenport people. Tho latter re gion, howovcr, has somo advunt.iga In tho matter of transportation gener ally. "Tho people of tho Davenport re gion need moro Irrigation water than they will bo llkoly to get for somo years, by present methods. Tho Itoguo river valley has an abundanca of it within reach. It is merely a question of getting It into tbo valley. This question would bo quickly solv ed In any of tho Eastern Washington districts, it wo had tho supply that you liavo for a gravity system of irri gation. "I will ralso ovcry pound of (etjd I can for hogs and chickens nnd mar ket every ounco of my produce in Hint form, Hotter transportation facili ties would givo mo a much, better profit, but 1 flguro thnt Itoguo river valley will have that In a compara tively short tlmo. Meantime, wo will try to produco enough to supply tho homo market, anyway," concluded Mr. Applouy. Tho Davenport man has also a firm confidence) in this vnlley as a corn producing roglon. Ho will try that product also. C'AItnOKTII.VXKS We, the relatives of tho deceased, Mrs. Orla C.

Ill' SELIa WHAT CAUSES COLDS? Ibis ciucstion is asked everyday. A cold is really a fever, not always caused by the weather but often due to disordered blood or lack of important food-elements. In changing .seasons fat-foods are essential because they distribute heat by enriching the blood and so render the system better able to withstand the varying elements. This is the important reason why cn.uu .cinuision snoiiiu always be taken for colds, and it does more builds strength to prevent sickness. Scott's Emulsion contains Nature's rare strength building fats, so skillfully blended that the blood profits from every drop. It is free from harmful drugs or alcohol.
