AVOID'TiARSiTDRUGS Many Cathartics Tend to Cause Injury to the Bowels If you are subject to constipation, you should avoid strong drugs and cathartics.

NELSON TO MANAGE EXPERIMENTAL FARM Primarily to make a profitable busi ness investment and incidentally with the intention of damming the current of money steadily flowing out of the Pacitic Northwest for meat products by establishing a demonstration farm for the fattening of animals for food purposes, which it is believed, will make such a showing that similar farms will spring up over a large tcr ntory, a number of stockmen, horti culturists, railway men and others have formed a corporation and acquired -tiit-.ihle lands, says Saturday evening's Portland Telegram. It is to be known as the Poi'tland-Goldemlale Farm Com pany, and was formally organized at a stockholder' meeting Friday night. The company holds rights to !i0 acres in the heart of the Klickitat Val ley, near Cioldendalc, Wash. Py the plans is contemplated a farm to be used as an experiment station for the rearing and fattening of food animals, scientific farming and demonstrations in agriculture and horticulture. It will he sowed largley in alfalfa and sume grain. The land is under the Mountain Lake Irrigation project, accessible for commercial irrigation, and is of the richest loam to tie found in the fert le Klickitat Valley, the gateway to the rich Yakima country. Kail way con nections are convenient, with a water eiade route to Portland, making this city the outlet for all the products of the farm, which is to be opened in the immediate future. The farm will be in charge of O. J. Nelson, son-in-alw ol.E. L. Smith, the noted Hood River horticulturist. It was on the Hood River apple farms that Mr. Nelson largely gained the knowledge and experience which will stand'him in good stead in the new project. The ollictrs and directors of the company are: President, V. M. Plummer, secretary and treasurer of the Portland Union Stockyards ; first vice-president, J. L. Sterrett, manager fo Sulzberger & Sons' Company ; sec ond vice president, W. H. Daughtrey, president of the Portland Union Stock vards; third vice-president, C. C.

BLUE RIBBON BAKERY Twelfth Street The Height Diamonds From Sugar. It win bo stated with perfect troth that a lump of sugar muy be turned into diamond Not all the substance of the suur, of course, will enter luto :i:e composition of the gem, but only the carbon that It contains. Sugar consists of cartnin united with oxygen and hydrogen. The carbon can be easily separated out, and In certain ex periments for the production of dia monds Mil sugar carbon has been em ployed. The diamonds so produced were, of course, very small and des titute of commercial value, but still they ore real diamonds, mid the chemical result achieved would be no greater Intrinsically If they were as large ns the Kohlnonr. The hope has often been held out that an improve uieut in the process of manufacturing diamonds may be effected whereby the necessity of dissolving the carbon lit molten Iron may be dispensed with, and the required combination of great pressure with great heat may be brought about by some such opera tion ns squeezing the carbon between fed hot metal plates. A Discouraged Sport. This Is the snd story of one of the most thoroughbred sports known to the history of hazards. His name was Sullivan, ami he had blue eyes and red hair, with a brogue to match his coloring. John Hays Hammond, the mining engineer, met him In prison lu South Africa at the time when Ham mond and other prominent men were held as captives by the lioers In con nection with the Jameson raid. The eugineer and the Irishman became well acquainted. "Probably you wonder why I'm here," said Sullivan one day when the thermometer had gone as high as 113 In the shade. "Well, I'll tell you. I got Into a little trouble, and I pleaded guilty to it. " 'Five years!' said the Judge. " 'Your honor,' I cried out, 'I'll throw heads and tails with you to see wheth er it shall be ten years or nothing.' "And. would you believe It. Mr. Hammond, that Judge got mad and added on the five years anyhow. And now I'm serving that extra five. What's the use of being a sport?" Popular Magazine.
