There Are Pianos On Our Floor That Are Marked
Below Actual Cost to the Valley Music House.
When you can actually buy for less
than wholesale you should take advan
tage of the opportunity. The Piano we
offer for $125.00 is worth twice this price,
the Player-Piano we offer for $320.00 has
a genuine Gulbransen Player action and
is sold even in San Francisco for nearly
twice this price. Here is a beautiful
Kimball Player-Piano which received the
highest award at San Francisco this
year the regular price of this Piano is
$800.00, and you can purchase this one
for $515.00 on easy terms. You can buy
now -and save the large profit usually
asked for Pianos. You are offered small
monthly payments like rent; you are
offered the best Pianos obtainable and all
guaranteed by Eilers -Music House and
the manufacturers.
With every Player-Piano I include
$25.00 worth of free music and with every
Piano I include a stool and the Piano is
tuned.
I will not order duplicates as these
prices are only on the Pianos now here.
Store open evenings.

ALREADY IN "SECLUSION"
New York, Feb. 11. Former
Secretary uf War Garrison,
whose resignation from the
cabinet -was accepted last
night, is here in "seclusion"
today.
Ueorge Leary, a dredging con
tractor, met him at the Penn
sylvania station upon his arrival
from Washington and took him
to the Leary home. Harrison
steadfastly refused to discuss
the reasons for leaving the cab
inet and though in a high hum
or, parried all questions.
"There will be 57 varieties
of explanations by men who
write stories from Washing
ton," he said. "I have nothing
to say about that."
He would not say liow long he
intends to remain here.

Washington, Feb. 11. The successor
to Secretary of War Garrison, resigned,
would be a democrat, and his name will
be announced within a day, it was
learned at the White House today,
when the latter was a presidential can
didate. Representative Sherley, though deny
ing knowledge of any consideration of
himself as a successor, is especially
equipped for the job, as he has been
for years in charge of fortifications
and artillery appropriations and has
been a close student of military prob
lems. The choice will be a man who can
work in harmony with Chairman Hay,
whom President Wilson refused to con
sider in the same liglit as did Garrison.
Hay for some time has been recognized
as antagonistic not only to Garrison
but to at least one other man in high
military position in previous years.
Neither Nut Nor Seed
"A Nutlet" Says Expert
San Francisco, Feb. 11. Science was

States appraiser's court today.
i Since 1912 the weighty question lias
$ j been buffeted about in government cir--j.
cles. It started when importers re
fused to pay uuty on carina on, claim
ing it was the product of a nut and
duty free. The government declared it
was a seed.
Hearings were called but alas, no
one could find a Parilla nut. A year
must elapse before another crop in
Java, it was announced But the Uni
versity of California laboratories yield

Professor H. M. Hull of the botany
department was called upon.
"Is this a nut or a seed?" he was
asked.
"It's neither. It's a nutlet," was the
sage opinion.
A bombshell had birrst. For no
where in the statutes is there any
tiling to cover a nutlet. The govern
At the business meeting of the state
fair board yesterday afternoon it was
decided to eliminate the superintend
ents of the departments for the next
fair and to place the departments un
der the direct charge of different mem
bers of the state fair board. W. H.
Savage will have the supervision of the
livestock department, the dairy and
poultiy departments will be handled by
Sir. Marsters, the grounds by M. L.
Jones, the speed events by Secretary
Lea and Mrs. Kdyth Tozier Wetherred
will handle the textile, art, education
al, and inside floral departments. She
will be assisted in the education.il work
by Assistant State Superintendent K.
V. Cnrlctnn. The outside floral decora
tions will be in charge of Dr. R. K. Lee
Steiner.
The racing program- will be in charge
of Secretary Lea who will be assisted
by Dr. II. E. Smith, of Salem, and K.
B. Tongue, of Rcseburg. The sum of
$l)00 was set aside for the races, $300
was appropriated for an aid to the Ore
gon Agricultural college working ex
hibit, $1500 was appropriated for the
educational exhibit.
J. E. Reynolds, the new member of
tho board from Ln Grande, was dele
gated to revise the premium lists for
horses and the board decided to cut out
tho Devon class from the cattle ex
hibits and to substitute the milk strain
Shorthorns.
President If. L. Jones submitted a
report in which "no Btated that there
were various reasons for a change in
the secretaryship of the board and also
that with W. H. Savage ha presented
the matter of the ticket fraud cases
to the district attorney.
Jlis report follows:
"For sufficient and satisfactory
reasons, within our rights with the
law, and witiiin our duty to the state,
some members of the stato fair board
desired a change in the secretary.
"As to the matter of law violation
by the ticket seller and a gate tender,
Mr. savage and myself, representing
the state fair board, placed the mat
ter in the hands of the district attorn
ey. This we did without reference to
the governor and without any request
or suggestion being made by It i in.
There was no politics in tiiis as the dis
trict attorney holds his office by up
pointiueut from ex-Governor West.
"We consider the stato fair board
and tho state very fortunate in being
able to secure the services of A. H. Lea
a gentleman of honor, of great business
ability and experience, and with a very
cur minds are quite as active as in
former years but our strength does not
respond when we need it most; perhaps
the kidneys are weak, the liver torpid,
rheumatic pains or stiffened joints
beset us, and we cannot easily throw
off the colds that winter brings.
What we need is the rich cod liver oil

Scott's Emulsion is a scientific oil

Ex-Secretary of the stato fair board,
W. Al Jones, came in for a roasting at
the hands of the expert accounts, John
Y. Richardson & Co., which firm ex
perted the books of the stnto fair
after the election of A .11. Lea to suc
ceed Mr. Jones. The summary of the
general report states that instead of
the fair showing a profit of about .'l,
000 under the management of Mr.
Jones that it actually showed a loss of
$1,529.89. The accountants reached this
conclusion by taking the amount of
money received from Frank Meredith
which was given as $9,719.01 and de
ducted the amount fumed over by
Jones at the end of his term which
was S,12C12. This gives the amount
$1,592.89 which the expert's report says
is the actual loss in the operation of
the fair last year.
The experts make no charges of ir
regularities in Mr. Jones' accounts but
state that careless methods of book
keeping were in use during Mr. Jones'
term. Their report goes back only one
year. The experts also charge that
