MANDY LEE INCUBATORS INTERNATIONAL FOOD AND REMEDIES Stewart Hardware & Furniture Co. A. I. Mason, who attended the meet ing of .the state Grange which was held at Corvallis last week submits the following report: Editor, Glacier: All loyal grangers can feel proud of the work done at the meeting of Ithe state Grange at Corvallis last week. It was one of the most important meet ings held for many years. The most important action taken was the intsruction given to the execu tive committee to initiate two road bills at our next general election. They have the bills about prepared and will soon have them printed in pamphlet form, to be distributed for teinorary educational purposes. We think the bills are about what the farmer want, yet we invite criticism and amend ments from any sincere believer in better highways. In this latter we, follow that com mand: "Love thy enemies as thyself and do good unto them who spitefully use you." We care not what has been said about us cither in pivate or in the public press, but we only ask that evey item of the good road movement be care fully weighed. Now, brother farmer, whether you be a granger or not, give us your assistance early in the game and we will get the best road legisla tion possible. Don't imagine that some automobile house in 1'ortland or road machine firm are the only ones with intelligence enough to make road laws for the farmers. Tne two needs that we will initiate will be the high way commissioner and the county bonding bills. The governor, state engineer and attorney general shall form a highway commission with power to appoint a commissioner as tw.li uu niiwor tn rrrwivp him. Thpv shall receive no extra pay for this ser vice. The commissioner must be a civil engineer and practical road milder. His powers are advisory and quite similar to the powers of our public school superintendent, we uo nut think it wise or necessarv to have a cornission of three to travel Jover the stale at ail enormous expense wo itu us how to build good roads. . r A. i. mason, Member of Executive Committee, State Grange. Coldest April on Record. "The month just past is the coldest April on record," says W. L. Powers, weather observer at the Oregon Agri cultural College, in a report just issued. "The nearest approach to it was in WO.'), when the monthly mean tempera ture was 1.2 degrees higher. lhe mercury dropped below freezing nine times during the last month. In pre vious years it has not fallen below the freezing point more than three times. The minimum, 25 degrees, is 3 de grees colder than any in the past 13 years. "At 6:30 I. M. on the 12tn the dew point, as determined by the wet and dry bulb readings, was 32 degrees, and the hard treeze the morning ol tne id was not unexpected. Frost may be expected when the dew point is found to be within about o degrees or lreez ing at 6:30 P. M. and the other condi tions are favorable to frost. Seven degrees below freezing is about the extreme amount that might be com bated by smudges, but it is possible that damage might have been pre vented in some cases had smudges been used. "Peaches are reported to have suf fered most, while cherries and other fruit were injured in certain locali ties. "The total precipitation for the month was 3 inches, a departure from the normal of 1.5 inches. The great est rainfall in any 24 hours was 1.05 inches. The deficiency in the normal rainfail for the year to date is 3.92 inches. The snow which fell as the only April snow in the past 13 years. "There were 13 clear days. 6 partly cloudy, 11 cloudy days, and 9 (lays on which the precipitation was .01 inch, while the prevailing winds of the month were southwest. "The monthly mean temperature was lti.fi degrees, a departure from normal of 3.6 degrees. The highest tempera ture was 80 degrees, ,on April li, and the lowest, 2.1 degrees, on the 13th. The greatest daily range was Ifi de grees, on the 23rd. The dates of heavy frost were April 2, t, 12, 13 and II. Governor Wilson Guest of Portland Woodrow Wilson, formerly president of Princeton University and at present governor of the state of New Jersey, whu is imikintr a tour of the West, was the guest of the city of Portland last Thursday and Friday. He was the guest of honor at a banquet tendered by the Commercial Club of the Kose City, a reception by the Press Club, luncheon given at the Y. M. C A., a dinner by the University Club and the Princeton Alumni and delivered a pub lie address at the Arinorv. Governor Wilson will undoubtedly never be a candidate for the presi dency ot his own seeking. However, he savs that no man is too biu to re fuse to run. Gov. Wilson savs that Oregon has been a teacher to him, be cause of her system of politics. St. Louis Market Has Herries. Cherries, The first home-grown strawberries of the season were received last week by William llartman, from Maxville, Mo., and sold for $3 per three-gallon tray, says a dispatch from St. Louis to the Produce News. Cherries are also on the market, for the first time on record, the first re ceipts from Tennessee, and the first California cherries of the season ar rived on the same day.

BflflHflBBMBBSMBiSiaUfli Phone 96-M Sure Cure for Dandelions. There is an unfailing cure for dande ions on the lawn. To exterminate the plant, grasp it firmly at the point where it emerges from the ground, offer a silent prayer, and pull steadily upward, should the root break on live or six inches in the ground, wait patiently a day or two, remaining con stantly in a prayerful mood, and you will probably have a chance to tackle it again. To make success doubly sure on the second attempt, carefully refrain from the use of all words resembling pro fanity. Before grasping the weed for last and deadly pull, moisten the hand carefully with the tongue and take a deep breath. Also, be insistent that your wife re main in the basement prudently out of sieht and out of mind, so she will not interfere with foolish and coniusing directions at the psychological moment. It is also for the safety 01 the house hold to have her beyond reach of the explosion to follow, in case the second attempt should end in laiture. When all is finally ready, exert pres sure on the weed about a quarter 01 an inch above the ground, gradually increasing the intensity until some thing yields, keeping all profane and worldly thoughts carefully out ol the mind. If the weed breaks a second time, send for a gardener, or sell the place. 1'ortland Journal Editorial. Apples for England.
