AN OREGON CAPITALIST WHO MAKES FARMS BETTER.
Geo. W, Eyre of this city got hold of a fine dairy farm at
Turner some time ago,
He found it in a terribly run down condition and proceeded
ftojfix it up.
A, great many tumble-down farms in Oregon need a little
of that kind of treatment.
Mr. Eyre blowed in about $5000 on new buildings and repairs
and has just sold the place for $25,000.
There are capitalists owning farms in Oregon letting them
grow up to brush.
Jhe old rail fences that, enclose them haven't had a new
aidehp.ut on tnero for forty .years.
The fence lines are a wilderness of brush and the home of
squirrels, rabbits and vermin,
They breed enough scale and Insect pests to run all the
orchards for miles around.
That kind of land ownership, that leaves tumble-down barns
and general dilapidation staring the passersby in the face is
a curse to the Willamette Valley.
Mr. Eyre is not that kind. He adds value to property he
owns,
STATE PRINTER DUNIWAY DOING THINGS.
It is refreshing to find a man occasionally who is apparently
not extending his graft in office.
Most men when they get Into office plan to enlarge the
borders of their phylacteries the extent of their loot.
But Mr, Duniway is built on different lines and has cut the
stuffing out of his income so far as the legislature is concerned.
The expense for printing for the 1909 session will show a
total of $10,151.71, a redlction of over $13,500 as compared
to $23,672.97 for the session of 1905, before Mr, Duniway
was in office,
The expense of the session of 1907 under Duniway was
$12,356.01 for the legislative printing.
So it appears to the credit of Duniway that he has done the
printing tor two regular sessions and a special session for
about $1 150 loss than it cost for the one term of 1905.
He may be making a barrel of money on the other printing,
but ho is not gu'lty of padding his revenues from work for
the legislature.
If Mr. Duniway can make as good a showing on all his
opportunities to graft as lie has shown on tho legisaltivo end
of It ho will bo keoping his campaign promises,
The state printing offico should not be run under a system
where it doponds on tho official in charge to say how much
he shall refrain from taking.
Liko Lord Clive in India, Mr, Duniway can be amazed at
his own moderation,

A PROGRESSIVE BANKER ON COOS BAY.
Jos, W, Bonnett of Marshfiold presided the other night at
tho organization of a Young Men's Booster Club and made a
speech,
He Is tho big conservative bankor down in that country
modeled after the old Ladd & Bush style of an institution,
But with tho solidity and stability of that Institution, his
imitation stops.
He is a whole Board of Trade and real estate boosting de
partment himself, and his bank and law offico are distributing
thousands of pamphlets boosting the Coos Bay country.
On top of his general activity Mr, Bennett can make one
of tho best booster soeechos It
But for being tied up with large banki
real estate interests and a big law prac
command a bin fleure in this
Ho can talk a wliolo through a stone wall and his enthusiasm
Is of tho kind that carrios a crowd right along through the hole
that ho drills through the granite,
Thore aro mon who do not liko Jo, Bennett, but that Is the
misfortune of all strong men who carry their heads up In the
air and accumulate property.
Bennett wouldn't bo a bad kind of a man to make Governor
of a sloopy old state like Oregon, He would wake things up
ana mere wouiu ue somemmg uomg an me nine.
It would bo a godsend to Oregon if the state had more
bankers of the progressive stripe who are willing to see things
go ahead on all linos of development,
Bennett is fond of sport and not above taking a crack at
any kind of game,
Bennett can officiate with equal grace at a horse race, a
boxing match, a church fair or a political meeting.
He will fight a case for a poor devil without money'if he s
of the right stripe, without money and without hope of reward,
On the other hand, It is a cold day on Coos Bay when there
Is a big deal on and Bennett has his hand in it and don't get
his share.
Take it all around there are worse and better men than
Bennett, but for a big, successful banker, he has few equals
on the Pacific Coast and no superiors in Oregon,

The Best Kind
Of Life Insurance
is health insurance. The best
way to insure the health of your
family when any member gets
in a ''run-down" condition, is to
use n tome that removes the
causa of the ill-health. Such
a tonic is
DR.D.JAYNES
TONIC
VERMIFUGE
A "run down" condition is
generally due to the failure of
the digestive organs to properly
digest the food. Dr. D. Jayne's
Vermifuge tones up the digestive
organs so that they supply the
body with proper nourishment,
and in this way bring about last
lag health. Ordinary tonics
simply supply food material in
predigested form, and conse
quently are only effective as
long as the tonic is taken.

Thcso g3at gains nro being used

As to policies dated previous to

FRUIT JAR PERFECTION
Yojj don't know what that perfection Is unless you use the Schram Au
tomatic Fruit Jar,
You may think that there is no relief from the exertion and bother
of the screw top jar way of sealing but there isl
Both sealing and unsealing with the SCHRAM AUTO
MATIC FRUIT JAR is like chikKs play, No screwing or
twisting, just press the top down and the jar is instantly
sealed, When unsealing insert the blade of a knife and
raise the top, Best of all, each jar is not only easily
sealed but perfectly sealed, You can be absolutely pos
itive that your fruit will be in perfect condition,
Fermentation and sourness are impossible in a Schram
Automatic Fruit Jar because it is sealed air-tight tho
only jar of which this is true,
Schram Automatic Fruit Jars complete cost practically
the same as the screw top jars, and in the long run
aie the cheaper because they mean freedom from all
fruit jar troubles, Schram Automatic caps complete in
themselves. No extra rubbers to be bought, See Court
