Articles of incorporation were filed this morning by The Typewriter Appli-j ance company of Portland, which pro-' poses to do a business of rebuilding and repairing typewriters. The-capital is given at $1,000. .-.-. - ' U Dr. Lytle, state-veterinarian, who lias returned from Heppner, where he was called to investigate the mortality among sheep flocks, reports that death was due partly to alkali ami lupine pois oning. The wet springs and the dry fnll. which cnnieH ubniit nnce nverv snv en years, has made everything dry and ' dusty so that when the sheep were brought down from the mountains by the old trail, the first to come down got the green forago and stuffed them selves. This was also one of the causes of the unusually heavy mortality. Al together about 1,000 head of sheep were lost, according to Dr. Lytic s estimate. George Palmer Putnam, secretary to the governor, is in Portland today. Carl Smith, formerly assistant secre tary of the public seitlce commission, who js now in Washington, D.

Oregon yet sounds good to me and the I rolling west is tho home of my henrt-ta- la."

Of this number, j 237 come under the provisions of the1 compensation act, 31 were from firms and corporations which havo rejected the act, and 22 were from public util ities. W. E.'

POTATO MARKET SUITERS. "Even we, who are producing as good potatoes as can be grown anywhere in America, find ourselves up against the unfair reputation which the cure lessueas of Willamette valley growers has made for us in markets outside the state," said one of the best potato grow ers of this district to Dr. Hector Mac pherson of the Oregon Agricultural col lege. Conferences held With growers in one of the best potato districts reveal ed the fact that the great handicap in the work of Oregon potatoes lies in the lack of standardization of varieties and types. Reports of various Oregon potato districts indicate a better crop than was at first anticipated. COME MILES TO Says Democrats Have Be trayed Principles and . . Broken Promises-; ' V.-f '.

Those dusty oltl placards saying: "Stack o' wheats 10 cents" and "Doughnuts with cof fee, 5 cents" which for muay niooiis adorned tho walls of our favorite bean cries, are doomed today. The catorcrs of Portland have so or dained. The historic slogan will be re placed by signs reading: "Owing to the high cost of lard, hot cukes up to 15 cents for two," also "coffee nntl sinkers 10 cents, ou account of the war." Recently, we used to get three dough nuts and a mug of coffee for a nickel. Now we get two doughnuts and the mug for a dime- The new raises will go into effect within a few duys.

Chapel, charged with defrauding one Roth of livery hire, and another man of $4 cash and some one else of his room rent, I am going to tell .what I know about a frisky, gent, who' by a strange coinci dence is named- E- I Chapel, 437 South Commercial street, and who has called oil u's'tlire'e times during the past month. But Jo get agodd. start J 'II have io go-back a ways and say thaf I don't care much' for peddlers,'' agents or any orbei-krud-.'i-footiiails,-1 always- keen a kettle at bolliirg -turpentine ready to pour upon them it they shouli need it. However, thero isn't much of them left after Bounce gets through with them, but when there is, I just make a small hole in tho lettuce patch where the dirt is soft, or I hang their tough hide over the fence, same as any other rattlesnake, so as to see if it won't make it rain, anil-.

So now I take a spell of hydrophobia whenever I see an agent of any kind, nod my mother takes puins that I shouldn't see anything that excites mo for fear that I might chaw the hind leg off of the diuing room tab le and damage its usefulness, if I just let myself go. However, an ageut got past her about three weeks ago and as I came down stairs sharpening my teeth with a file I inquired if it wo'uid be ull right with her if I'ejected the person occupying a prominent position on our best sofa in the front room. She said, no, that this was a nico young man with a sick wife, and that- if he were a fraud that she woultl uever beg for the life of another agent, and as 1 dearly love nice young men with sick wives, very, very sick wivesy.l let him live, He professsd to be a, photographer, and carried, about with him what had the-appearance of t camera, but I am no judge of such .matters, and for all.
