...
Mr.
and others of Antioch vicinity.
Knbli stated that none of tin- Apph gate
stockmen ha«l yet sold their lieeves,
holding them in their tine alfalfa pastur
es until a better price was offered. As
the number of beef cattle held by himself
and neighbors, Mr. Knbli gives th«-follow
ing estimate: Janies Buckley, 63; Henry
D. Knbli, ¡1.5; R. Catm-ron, 10; Miles
Cantrall, 40; Andrew Cantrail,75; Arthur
Kleiiihammer, 50 making a total of 305
head. There is nearly as many more
held by other Applegate stockmen, mak
ing a bunch of « attic that w ill be a good
buy to some dealer, as the Applegate
range has a long established reputation
for turning off beef equalled by but few
ranges in Oregon.

Cause of Lockjaw.
Lockjaw, or tetanus, is caused by a
bacillus or germ which exists plentifully
in street dirt. It is inactive so long as
exposed to the air, but when carried be
neath the skin as in the wounds caused
by percussion caps or by rusty nails, and
when the air is excluded the germ is
roused to activity and produces the most
virulent poison known. These germs
may be destroyed and all danger of lock
jaw avoided by applying Chamberlain's
Pain Balm freely as soon as the injury is
received. Pain Balm is an antiseptic ami
causes cuts, bruises and like injuries to
heal without maturation and in one third
the time required by the usual treatment.
It is for sale by City Drug Store.
