"I have never seen anything," said Mr. Curriek, "sell like Tanlae is soil ing out on tho Pacific coast, around wueru i uvea, a inena Ot mine actu ally wcntsevoiity five miles one day to get a bottle and knowing what I do about it now, I believe 1 would do tho same thing, rather than ibo with out it. : When 1 first started taking it 1 had little idea it would, do mo any good, but when I tell ybI have gained six teen pounds in testf- than thirty days and am able to work, for the first tiu.e in months, you can understand why 1 talk like 1 do aibout it, "Something like e, year ago my ap petite went back on me and my stom ach go! in such a bad fix that nothing 1 would eat seemed to do mo any good.

"1 was stopping with my nephew in Tacoma at thi time, and ho had seen Tanlae recommended so highly he went down and got a bottle for me.

Mrs. Brodie was born in New Lon don, Conn., and was 82 years and 5 months of age. Hhe was a wWoV, her nusband having passed away a good munv years ago, and for a number of years had made her homo with her eail'lrVn, residing at Eugene with son until about a year ago, when en went to Oregon City.

Burchers, Pre vost, Wash Eugene Rngistei Weather Reports Show That Warmest Day Of 1918 Was 95 And Coldest 23. The good people of Salem awoke this morning to the coldest New eYar's day on record since the weather bureau was established in Salem in 1900. The mini mum temperature last night was 20 above aero and at 8:30 o'clock the mer cury had climbed up only two notches. New Year's day of 1912 was one of tho coldest of tho present generation On that day the minimum temperatiuc was 25 with a- maximum of only 35. New Year's day of 19010 was niso pret ty chilly, as on that day the low tem perature was 28 with a maximum of 8 The year 1918 camo in in a- most spring like fnshion, as the my rose clear on a temperature of 56, the maxi mum that day reaching 62. Jan. 1 of 1916 was a clear day also but taking an average of New Year's dnys for the past 18 years, it has -'n cloudy. The weather for the month of De cember has not been changing any since 1900, according to tho govern ment's official record. In 1902 tho mean maximum for tho month was 44 and the mean minimum 35. As the years go by, the December weather on an averngo varied little. For instance, in 1905, the mean maximum was 44 and the mean minimum 36. In 1910 the figures were 45 and 34. In 1913 tho davs in December were cooler than the average with a mean maximum of 40 and mean minimum of 36. December of last year had a tan maximum of 46 with a mean minimum of 35, not materially difforent from the month 16 years ago. ; Tho lowest temperature in 1918 was e-n tho night of January 31 when the mercury dropped to 23 above. The warmest day of tho year was August 30 when tho high temperature was Vo. WONDERFUL YEAR F, Crop Not Heavy But Prices Were Abnormally High. The year 1918 was tho most rcmark- ablo tho Oregon agriculturist has ovor Known. Crops wero not of tno bumper variety, but prices were abnormally high and even with a much greater producing cost, tho net result has been a seaspn of prosperity, the lika of which wag nover boforo recorded. Mar keting problems could not have been Sim jj.ir, as the demand tit all seasons 'of the year wnj greater than the farm ers could produce. Tho wheat land of the state, accord ing to government figures, yielded 4, 851,000 bushels of spring grain and .10,470,000 bushels of tho winter cereal, tho total of 15,321,000 bushels, com paring with 12,811,000 bushels produced in 1917. The averago wheat crop of r go:i for tho past' ton years was 18, 8!i:i.0U0 bushels. The farmers in 1918 as in tho procoding year, had the bene fit of the high price fixed by the gov ernment and naturally found no com plaint with their treatment. Oats Ctop Small The oats crop was tho smallest for several years, but was a very remune rative ono. The state produced in tho past year 7,94,000 bushels, which com pares with 9,125,000 bushels in 1917, and a ten year averago of 15,004,000 bushels. ! The barlev crop was slightly under that of the preceding year, but brought much more money. The 1918 yield was figured at 4,530,000 bushels, as against 5,278,000 bushels in 1917 and 4,443,000 bushels, the average for the preceding 10 yearn Potato Movement Slow Tho potato crop was less than that of 1917, and, whiic tho movement has not yet fairly started, prices promise to be reasonably good, though of course mot so high as in years when the cast and middlo west produced let The Oregon crop is figured at 8036 carloads whereas in 1917 11,573 carloads were produced. At tho close of tho year less than 300 cars had been shipped out of the state, about 200 cars less than were moved in tho same period last season. Total shipments to outsido points from the 1917 crop were 1902 carloads. Tho onion crop wn seriously cut down by an attack of thrips in the summer months. Wool at High Level The war put the wool market at an I exceedingly high level, and by the government taking over tho entire clip, nho flockmasters were assured of get- ting all there was to bo had out of I their wool. The Oregon clip was some iwhat larger than in the preceding two H nf "tv "nod niio"T Most f It has already been distributed by "men , and what remains will be disposed of at auction, the authori ties having chosen this method to un load their howme, oi woo), room lor cign and domestic.
