pains in my back and legs so bad that
I wasn't able to do my work. At
times, it was all I could do to get
around. Sharp, shooting pains caught
me in the small of my back and for a
minute I could hardly move. When I
got down to do anything it was all I
could do to straighten up as my back
felt so weak and stiff. After I had
taken six or eight boxes of Doan’s

AMONG out large circle of readers
there are a great many who are in­
terested directly or indirectly in
fruit growing, dairying and other
branches of farming. All of these
naturally wish to keep in close touch with ag­
ricultural activities throughout the state;
and to know about any fight which is being
waged for the measures Oregon farmers
want and against all sorts of schemes that
are detrimental to the people and agricultural
interests of this state.
We have, therefore, made a special clubbing
arrangement with THE OREGON 1 AR­
MER whereby any farmer or fruitgrower,
whois one of our régulai- subscribers and who
is not now a subscriber to THE OREGON
FARMER, will be entitled to receive THE
OREGON FARMER in combination with
this paper at the same rate as for this paper
alone.
This offer applies to ail those who renew or
extend their subscriptions as well as to all
new subscribers. If you are interested di­
rectly or indirectly in Oregon agriculture,
do not miss this unusual opportunity, but
send your order in now.
THE OREGON FARMER is the one farm-
paper which is devoting itself exclusively
to the farming activities and interests of
Oregon. It has a big organization gath-

news of importance to farmers,
dairymen, fruitgrowers, stockraisers and
poultry men; and it has the backbone to at­
tack wrongful methods and combinations and
bad legislation, and support honest leaders
and beneficial measures. We are confident
that our readers will congratulate us on our
being able to- make this splendid and at­
tractive dubbing offer.
