DESDES
At last, after years of protracted study and much in
experimental work, effective poison for squirrels, rati,
gophers, moles, rabbits and mice has been perfected and
is being used in California with great success.
This discovery is called DES-DES, and is more eco
nomical and safer to the farmer than other so-called
Rodent Exterminators.
It is compound so as to attract both in odor and taste,
and wiii-produce the desired results, where others fail.
A TRIAL WILL CONVINCE.

Wagon Travelers Need Camp
"We ought to provide some (dace for
people who travel through in horse
drawn wagons to camp. " declares W.

make, we have prohibited wagon trav

we have a great many people coming
through here in horsedrawn vehicles.
! 1 have intruded J. W. Copper, as cus
todian of the auto park to help travel
ing by wagon all he can in finding
camping places. We may be able to
find a piece for all of them on a plot
of ground east of the city. With the

CHAPMAN AGAIN
Circuit Judge Phelps, of Pendleton,
assigned here from Umatilla county to
hear the case, has notified City Attor
ney E. C. Smith of a decision favorable
to the defendant city in the case of E.
E. Chapman, who was seeking to re
strain the city from opening a street
over his Columbia lowland property,
connecting the Columbia at low water
period with city streets. Mr. Chap
man contended that the city was trying
to turn a portion of a navigable stream
into a street, but the city asserted that
the property condemned last year as
submerged only during the period of
high water. The city opened the street
both to give passage to vehicles to and
from the Underwood, Wash., ferry
system during period of low water and
to provide a landing place for ferry
boats during high water.

One of the interesting incidents of
the visit of Judge W. H. Taft to the

I was greeted as he left the Hood River
High School by W. H. Taft, Hood
j River's esteemed businessman and
Shriner Jiut for the rush of Judge
j Taft the to catch the train, the conver
sation would have been more lengthy
and interesting. The local W. II. Taft
! met Judge Taft on a former occasion.
The two trace their ancestry back to
the same source.
Following the greeting bv the local
W- H. Taft. Judge Taft shook hands
with ("has. Taft, young son of Mr. and
j Mrs. L. E. Taft.
"Charles, J am glad to know you,"
said the distinguished guest. "1, too,
