This is especially true in tlio enso of
the water department.

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. Von Scoy, wish to ex
press our sincere thanks to our
friends and neighbors, who showed

recent bereavement.

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. Sold at drug stoics
always get the genuine.
