If kidney trouble is allowed to ad vance the kidney-poisoned blood will attack the vital organs, or the kidneys themselves break down and waste away cell by cell.

The find at Whatcom is the first actual discovery of oil north of California. The discoverers there comprise only a portion of the companies that are operating or preparing for active work in Oregon and Washington, and they, with the others, were encouraged to prosecute the work of development by reason of existing geological conditions suggesting oil. The Whatcom find was made first be cause the company, backed by the lib erality of the people, was enabled to sink a well before the other communi ties advanced that far. But this is only a starter, and other discoveries through out this favorable geological area are sure to follow. Our own company, the Yamhill Coal & Oil Co., stands the same show of opening up a successful and valuable oil field right here at home. There is no reason why they should not do so if the people would only realize the importance of the undertaking and give their support that the work might be carried oil without a stop when once the drilling machinery is placed in po sition .
