With this high price, mar ket men predict that the consumption of onions will toe materially reduced.

The oil companies threatened that if the regulation, was enforced they would add two cents to the cost of dis tillate. JOHN GEAEEE "I am already making preparations for tho baud con cert season of 1919. I expect to have most of the old players back and hope to have some new ones. Steelhammer will be back from the shipyards tojfakc tho lead. Those of the boys who have been playing with tho army will be in good condition to take up the work when they get back, for in the service they not only play military and rag timo stuff, but are mndo to handlo classic and grand opera numbers in their camp concerts.

"We are planning to organize ono troop of Boy Scouts from the older boys of tho city from 15 to 18 years old and arrange; for a program of hikes, athletic and camping Btunts that will attract the class who havo got a little beyond the "kid" stage.

West, county assessor receive the returns from all his depu ty assessors and has time to tabulato a few figures ho will know just ex actly how many acres in the county ire devoted 'to tho raising of Loganbor ries, walnuts, ptars, peaches, applet, prunes and in fact, not only all fruits and berries 'but the number of acres devoted to regular agricultural pur-, snits. He is now waiting on the office of tho state tax commissioner for the necessary blanks to send his deputies. The state legislature passed a law that required county assessors to secure all this data and to keep tho information on file in the offices of the county as sessors. Heretofore there -has been no l absolutely accurate record of tho num ber of acres devoted to tho raising or the several fruits and berries that aro making a world record for Marion county. Last summer county fruit in spector B. H. Van Trump made a par tial survey of the fruit interests of the county and from his work, it was found that the fruit interests as well as berry were much larger in the county than had been generally supposed. Hence tho bill was put through the recent leg islature ly which the great fruit and berry interests of each county in the state may oe accurately estunaieu. ysil ca : llli 111 r (,1 W J(W fl5l!

While there la considerable talk now adays about tho salaries of stato offi cials and .tho attempt of tho lato legis lature to boost the income of several stato officials, it might be well to hark back to tlie- time when the state eonsitution was adopted in 1859. At that distant day $1500 a year was con sidered enough fur a governor. $1500 a year for tho secretary of stato and tho stato treasurer was held in such low estCKSm that ho was givon only $800 a year. But th? early legislators felt more lifbernl -towards the supremo judges and put them on tho pay roll at, an annual salary of $2000 a year. Tho supreme judges are yet the high est paid state officials es they are now allowed $5250 ft year, the governor $5000 and the secrotary of etato and state treasurer ench $4500 a year.

Remember the physic that mother insisted on castor oil, salts or cathartics. How you hated them. How you fought them. IIomj you dreaded their after-effects. That was all wrong, but then nobody knew better. iWith our children it's different. The day of harsh physics is over. IWe don't force the bowels now ; we coax them, ) iWe have no dreaded after-effects. 'And the dose is a candy tablet. " Mothers who cling to the old form of physic simply (don't know what they do. The children's revolt isi Well-founded. Their tender bowels are harmed by them. The modern way is to give a gentle laxative mora1 frequently. To keep the bowels always active. The best method is Cascarcts. . Cascarets are candy tablets. , - Children love their pleasant taste. They cost only 10 cents a box, with full "directions lor children's dosage at all ages.
