"Last fall when my neighbors wore
down!,'with influenza, I took a severe
cold .and: beforo I was aware of my
condition I was down sick in bod. I
coughed night and day and my throat
Was-'raw and sore. 1 got a bottle of
Foley's. ..Honey and Tar Compound
Bnd took eight small doses in two
hours.. My condition began to Im
prove and in a few days I was as well
as ever. In my opinion Foley's Is the
best cough medicine made." For sale

(Next Monday, Feb. 16, the bigfiesi
convention of Oregon retail mer

years will assemble in Astoria for
three days.
Tho bigness of the occasion arlsey
thru this being tho wedding, as it
were, of tho Oregon Hctail Merchants
association, and the Oregon State
Retailers' association and not an or
dinary wedding, but one of those that
always arouse tho greatest interest
the reuniting of a divorced pair.
rive years ago there was a split in
the old Oregon Ketall Merchants' as
soc. ution, which has functioned now
for fifteen years, and the Oregon
State Retailers' association, develop-!
c-d as a rival organization.
Whatever the cau.s-s were of this
"family row" no dutiht of small im-'

two former rival slate associations

" Anurio " is many times more potent than lithia, and was first dis
covered and placed on sale by Dr. Pierce. Ask your nearest druggist
for " Anuric" that new kidney remedy of Dr. Pierce's, or send Dr.

School officers and teachers assem
bled In convention at JSutto Kails
unanimously endorse the two mill tax
bill to be voted upon at the Jlay pri
maries, which provides for a uniform
levy upon all property of tho state
and the proceeds therefrom to bo
distributed in such a way that schcol
districts with a low.-assessed valua
tion will bo ablo to maintain schools.
After a discussion of the present crit
ical situation, and tho many advan
tnKOs to bo Rained by a state wido tax
for tho support of our common
schools, steps were adopted for giving
tho proposed measure such publicity
as should be necessary to secure tho
passage of the measure In thoso sec
tions ut least represented at the Uutte
Kails meeting.
State Supt. .1. A. Churchill, County
Supt. G. Ager and a number of
school officers spoke of tho present
situation and of the necessity ot hav
ing something done at once. Our
state superintendent predicts that,
unless the measure is passed, there
will be at least 500 schools in Ore
gon without teachers next fall.
Tho plan of distribution ns out
lined in thes measure will glvo the
districts better' than $351). for each
teacher employed. Since-about one
third of tho school districts in .lack-
son county huvo niado provision for
the minimum of $iil!U with which to
run their schtals, an amount hardly
sufficient to maintain a ono room
school, it is predicted that tho mca
sure will meet with tho same unani
mous approval in other parts of tho
county and state as it did with 1hnse
in attendance at tho Uutto Falls
meeting.
The scarcity of teachers Is bound
to bring up salaries, which for ele
mentary school work bid fair to
range frcni $100 a month up. School

Our St. Ansgar correspondent this
week notes that V. .1. Kedlacek has
purchased forty acres of land of A.
O. (iilhertson at $IOiliVper acre. Wo
believe this is tho highest price at
which any piece of land In Mitchell
county has ever been sold. This tract
lies just on the edge of that town and
it does not have a building on It.
However. It is In a high state ot cul
tivation and has been a money maker
for Mr. Gilbertstn for some years, he
having been raising onions on It, and
it Is saiil .Mr. Scdlacek will make the
same use of It.
There Is perhaps no man better
qualified than Mr. Sedlacek to judge
what can be done with land In that
community. Fifteen years ago ho was
chopping wood at a dollar a cord and
today It Is said, ho Is worth $1100.000,
most of this immense fortune having
been made In that length cf time by
raising vegetables. Mr. Sedlacek is
one of the men whom the Country
Gentleman noted last week In Its big
UluFtrated write-up of the truck
growing Industry In Mitchell county,
lie has raised onions, cabbage and
potatoes, mainly potatoes, the maga- j

LIGHT SIX
The remarkable ease with which it holds the road
and travels mile after mile without vibration or ef
fort, is only one among the big features of the New
Studebaker Light-Six.
You can drive it all day without fatigue. And so
can your wife or daughter. Its sure starter, the re
sponsiveness of the motor, 1 lie convenient controls,
the short turning radius, the irreversible steering
gear and the quiekacting brakes all contribute to
make this a delightful car to drive.
Its mechanism is simple, aecessile, practically
trouble-proof, easily cared for. It's a beautiful car
to look at; a most satisfactory car to owif.
