Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was first introduced it cur ative powers were doubted and had to ba proved. But the proof came, and gradually the use of it spread over the whole country. . Now that hundreds of thousands ot women nave experienced the most beneficial effects from its use ita value has become generally recog nized and it is now the standard medi cine for women's ills. The following letter is only one of tlm thousands on our files. Denniaon, Texas. " I cannot feel that I have d.ne my duty until I tell what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vepjetablo Compound has done for me. I suffered from female troubles so I could hardly drag around and do my work. I was very nervous, and had dizzy spells, heat flushes, and headaches until life was a burden. My husband brought me a bot tle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and I soon began to improve. I continued its use and am now free from all pains and aches that made life a burden. You may use this letter in any way you like for I want the world to know what a grand medicine Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is." Mrs. G. 0. Lowerv, 811 S. Barrett Ave., Denison, Texas.

Henry lieny, owner of club, in mak ing the announcement, declared thut Wolverton would lie paid his full $,", 000 salary this year, but that Berry himself would manage the team. He lauded Wolverton as a heady and suc cessful manager, but said thnt business differences had made the step neces sary. The players held a meeting of protest and told iierrv that if the move was made because of Wolverton 's atti tude towards the threatened players strike they would quit in a body.

C. These exhibits were prepared by the western commissions,, in (ho main, or by the bureau of railway economics at Wash ington, for the use of the western commissions in their appearance before the Interstate Commerce commission on tho 15 per cent rate increase hear ing. An exhibit presented by V. G. Pow ell, rato expert for the western com missions, shows that the roads in the western classification territory have en average revenue per ton mile of $8.91, as compared to $0.53 for the roads in tho eastern classification territory and $(i.50 for the southern roads. Figures Are Compared. The western roads, according to this showing, show a percentage of 130 as compared to the eastern roads for the average revonu per ton mile. The west ern roads have a net return of 11.88 per cent, according t Mr. Powell's show ing, as compared to 5.95 per cent for the eastern roads, and (1.48 per cent for the southern roads. The western roads' average operating revenue to their gross revenue is 07.70 nor cent, while the eastern roads show 77.27 per cent and tho southern roads 70.89 per cent. The western roads cover 129,410 miles, as to 40.51.1 miles for the eastern roads and 61,590 for the southern roads. Figures prepared bv H. B. Warren, another expert apnearing for the West ern commission, show that the western rnnda, for the 15 years from 1900 to 1915. inclusive, had an average of $1,188,512,450 in operating revenues, or nn increase in 1915 over 1900 of 87-.14 T-er cent. The average operating ex penses per years for the samo length of time were $79,1,914.98.1. or n in crease in 1914 over 1900 of 101.51 per cent. Tho net operating revenue aver aged $194,597,407. and the average oper ating ratio was 00.80 per cent. Figure Presented by Experts. L. K, Wettling. another expert, showed thnt in 1910 the western roads hud operating revenues amounting to $1,20.1,915,1.10 25; operating expenses amounting to $804,000,912.27; net op erating revemtos, $450,210,715.70; taxes, $0.1.51.1. 10.1..10; operating income, $387, 097,552.47; rentals, $1,108,59.1.12; or a net operating income for the western roads that year of $180,528,959.35.

This is a total increase of $210,1,18,074, while the estimated in crease in revenue by a change of rates to December 31, 1910, amounts to out $141,705,500. The comparisons made by Expert Powell as to the conditions in western, eastern and southern territory, were made by the western commisisons to indicate that even if advances arc made in the eastern and southern classifica tion territories, such advances should not apply to the western territory, as tnee luudH, under his tigttres, are bring ing a gr atly higher percentage of re turn. Large Acreage of Beans Planted Around Donald It would seem from the vast amount of beans planted in this section of Ore gon that Douald and vicinity would be able to supply Uncle Sam's entire army with that commodity for an indefinite period; but with all o our immense acreage that kind of a statement would be unreasonable. The Record has no way of ascertain ing the exact acreage in this vicinity, but judging from what we know for a certainty, it must be considerable. We would like to be able to name all who are cultivating that crop, but can give but a few of them. The Fargo Orchards company are perhaps the largest growers, with 150 acres planted. . Feller & Harkman have 35 acres, all up and about ready to cul tivate. R. Losey has planted beans be tween the rows of his 20-acre blackber ry field on the A. K. Feller place- Quinn 6 St. Helen have a 17-ac.re field of as fine beans as one could wish to see. Lamb & Son have 11 acres planted and coming up. Besides all these we know of a great many garjen patches, rang ing from two acres down to small beds. And now we have perhaps not mention ed more than half being grown withiie a radius of three miles of Donald. While the acreage is fur above normal there is every indication that the de mand will be in proportion. We under stand that certain growers have been asked to contract the coming crop at 7 1-2 cents. This is not considered a very good figure, but it seems to indi cate that they will go no lower than that. It is certain that the person who has a few sacks to sell will be able to realize a neat riilm.

The address to the graduates was given by Professor Charles T. Ball, of Fort Worth, Texas. Fruit Outlook Better Than Last Year Fruit prospects for this section of the Willamette valley are very promising, according to C. O. Constable, county fruit inspector. There is some difference of opinion as to whether the late blooms of prunes will hold. If these blooms are lost, Mr. Constable figures the crop will be a little better than one-third. If they hold, there will be a much larger crop than last year. Just at present the valley prunes are larger, but with fairly favorable condi tions, the chances are good for a crop much larger everywhere than a year ago. And the same may be said of cher ries and pears. The loganberry situation has improv ed greatly within tho past three weeks. The warm weather has put much vigor Into the stalks and the winter killed is not as serious as irst indicated. Ev erything now indicates a big loganberry crop. Strawberries are better Rnd the pros pects better for a big crop than any time for the past 10 years- But if the weather continues hot and dry, the ber ries will ripen quickly and the season will be a short one. Honce, taking ev erything into consideration, just at pres ent, things look pretty good for fruit in this part of the valley. Rickreall Items , (Capital Journal Special Service) Rickreall, June 16.
