TO COMPOUND
PRESCRIPTIONS
properly it takes time. It requires experience and
a complete knowledge of drugs. It requires the
druggist to have a large variety of drugs—fresh
drugs. He must give the best possible work and
for compensation he must be reasonable. With the
above facts remember we are careful and strive to
please one and all alike. These are reasons why our
prescription file thribbles all in this county. We
are recognized by doctor and customer alike for be­
ing accurate and dispensing only the purest drugs.

The farmers all over the country count
amongst their heaviest expenses to run
the farm, the lumber bill. All are un­
doubtedly interested to learn of a medi­
um to reduce the same at ¡east to half its
former cost. This medium is Carboline-
um Avenarius, a wood preserving paint
based on 25 years’ experience. Many are
of the opinion that paint, tar and linseed
oil w ill preserve the wood against rot and
decay. These coatings only form an air­
tight cover, but <lo not destroy the albu-
minum parts of the wood, which always
start the rot. The coalings with above
mentioned materials prevent the evapo­
ration of the woo<l and the consequence
is dry rot. Carbolineiun Avenarius, on
the contrary, penetrates deeply into the
wood and destroys all present decay mat­
ters. The Carbolineum Avenarius is ap­
plied with a brush and imparts a nut
brown color to the wood. It is used on
the farms for painting barns, granaries,
shingles, silos, posts, bridges, chicken
coops, etc., and all woodwork above and
below the ground. For hop poles it is
especially valuable, as one setting of poles
treated with Carbolineum Avenarius will
be practically indestructible and will
staml for u natural lifetime without being
replaced. Carbolineum A venarius is also
the most radical remedy against chicken
lice. One coat applied to the inside of
llm chicken coop will keep it clean from
vermin. Kerosening and whitewashing,
which has to he repeated every month,
is done away with and ex ponses for sul­
phur and insect powder lire saved. Who­
ever desires further information about
Carbolineum Avenarius should write to
O. O. H odson , Agent, McMinnville, Or.
The Speech Will Begin About 9:30 a. m.
Whether you agree politically with Mr. Bryan or not,
come and hear him. It will be one of the opportunities of
your life.

George R. A. Ferris, who shot John
Wardle on the Ilruithwait farm north of
this city about 16 years ago, is the same
fellow who killed another man about two
weeks ago in the state of Washington,
and who is now ill jail at Goldendale
awaiting trial for murder, W. M. War­
dle of this city saw the account of the
last crime in the Oregonian, and he was
led to write the sheriff who has the pris­
oner in charge, to ascertain if he was the
same criminal who shot bis father. He
is satisfied from the description tbut it is
the same man. Ferris shot Wardle be­
cause the latter refused to sign a deed to
some land, now owned by E. M Greeley,
until Feri is would pay back J20 Wardle
had loaned him. Ferris drew his gun
and said be would put Wardle w here he
wouldn't need his signature, and shot
him in the center of the breast, the bullet
passing clear through Wardle's body.
Wardle was sick with the wound for over
a year. He is now 86 years old, and at
times can feel pain due to the wound of
sixteen years ago. The sheriff writes
that Ferris is likely to pay the penalty
for his latest clime. He claims self-de­
fense, but it is known that he rode thirty
miles to kill an unarmed man.
For his first crime Ferris was placed
in jail at Lafayette, but effected his es­
cape before he was tried.
He has since
served ten years in the Washington pen
itentiary for horse stealing.

Mr and Mrs. W H. Morris and Mr

In addition to I lie development of the
dairy business in the Willamette valley,
the Southern Pacific, through its general
freight and passenger agent, C. H.
Markham, is now interesting itself in the
possibilities of the poultry industry. Mr.
Markham is of the opinion that this
branch of farming is one which can be
made most profitable, and thinks that it
w ill pay farmers generally to take it up,
either in connection with other branches
of farming, or as a business by itself.
On this matter, he said to an Oregonian
man recently:
“Speaking of diversified farming, the
raising of chickens for market is one
which ought to receive attention at the
hands of our farmers. Dining the year
1899 there was shipped from Kansas and
Nebraska to California over this com­
pany’s lines 224 carloads of poultry.
The handling of these shipments requires
ears of special construction, for Which
a heavy rental is charged in addition to
the freight rate. The loss in transit is
considerable, ns is also the cost of feed­
ing and expenses of a man in charge.
“The rate from Kansas and Nebraska
to California is $1.75 per 100 pounds, or
|35O per car. The average number of
chickens to a car is about 4000, weighing
aliout four pounds each, but the freight
charge is based on a minimum of 20,000
pounds. The coat of laying shipments
down in California, therefore, is not less
than 3 cents per pound, equal to 12 cents
for each chicken, or $1.44 per dozen.
"Chickens are selling in Portland to­
day fm from |4.50 to $5 per dozen, and 1
am informed that a coop of choice ones
sold this morning lor $5 50. This would
seem to indicate that our home market
is not being adequately supplied.
“The freight from Oregon Io Nan Fran­
cisco is not one-half what it is from Kan­
sas and Nebraska, and as a matter of
fact express service can be obtained for
as low uh $1.50 per 100 pounds.
“Climatic conditions are very much in
favor of Oregon, and there is no reason
w by < fregon chickens should not replace
those from Kansas and Nebraska in the
California market. Ae is well known,
chickens do not thrive in California,
there being some adverse climatic con­
dition. We will tilwave have at our
very doors a market for our surplus
poultry.’’
A Pleasant AVeildlng.
At the home of Mr. and Mrs. T. A.
McCourt in this city, at 8:30 p. tn. Sun­

ating. Miss Daisy Henderson of Forest
Grove played a wedding march. Charles
Young and Mi:. Hallie Reynolds were
groomsman and bridesmaid. After the
ceremony a splendid supper followed.
The presents were numerous and hand­
some. Mr. Elviti Underwood presented
a gift of $50 on a previous promise that
the wedding should occur on his birth­
day.

A very pleasant social was tendered
Lucretia Strong Tuesday evening at the

The program consisted of songs and reci­

which she responded in a few appropri­
ate words. A social hour was spent in
playing games, after which all joined in
singing “God l>e with you ’till we Meet
Again." Lucretia has a wide circle of
friends hers and she will be greatly miss­
ed, but what is our loss is Carlton's gain.
