CORVALLIS, OREG ON, July 81, 1891.
Commencing with August 5th, the Ore
gon Pacific trains, east of Albany, will run
on the following time:
No. leaves Albany, going east, at l2:4O
P. M, arriving at Halsted at 8 P. NJ. No. 2
leaves Halsted at 7 A. NJ, arriving at Alba
ny at $40 A. M. On Wednesday and Sat-
urday of each week, this train will run
through to Coe, arriving there at 4:O5 P. NJ,
and leaving there at 4:lO P. M; arriving at
Halsted at 500 PM, where it will lie over
night, leaving for Albany at 700 next morn
ing.
This is an advantageous arrangement for
nearly every one who desires to reach this
section of the country, starting from NORTH,
south, or west of Albany, as they are not
compelled to lie over one day at Albany
! 1t also enables parties living on the line east
of Albany to come there and transact bank
ing or other busines, and return home the
same day. Yours truly,

Deafness Can't Be Cured

the diseased portions of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the mu-
cons lining of the Eutachian Tube. When
this tube gets intlamed you have Il rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out and
this Tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out Of ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inhamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that we cannot crre by taking Halls Catarrh

BURGLARS AT WoRK-The business men
of this city and surrounding towns should
be on the lookout for burglars as they are
now operating in the valley. This week
they entered the store of Geo. Brandenburg,
in Harrisburg, cracked his safe and carried
away about $1,000 worth of jewelry. They
gained access to the store by cutting hole
through the roof and descending by means
of hammock. which goes to show that
they are determined set and understand
their business, and Ithis alone should be a
warning to all who have valuables in stores
to deposit them safely at night.

SUICIDE BY AMMONIA.
THE Terrible AGONY DOES NOT PREVENT
ITS USE.

No poison brings death with more mat~
dening agony than ammonia, but that fact
does not seem to discourage the suicides
The man Harrowitz who deliberately swal~
lowed a fatal dose of the drug in New York
recently, is only one of the many who have
gone the ammonia route to death in spite OF
the excruciating pain. Dr. Blyth has re-
corded thirty cases of ammonia poisoning
in the small London district of which he IS
health officer; Professor Mitchell mentions
twenty two cases, and four have occurred
during the short time DR.. jenkins has been
connected with the coroner's office in New
York.
Cases of slow poisoning from Ammonia
are of constant occurren ence among men VINO
work in it's manufacture, or even in decom<
posing substances which give it off in con-
siderable quantities. Ammonia, slowly
and from day to day taken into the system,
causes the complexion to lose its freshness,
and the skin of men who get heavily inn
pregnated with it has disagreeably
blotched and discolored appearance.
Taken into the stomach from day to day in
even the small quantities used to adulterate
food snch as baking powder, it not only in
iures the complexion but attacks the lining
of the stomach, and is the source OF mucb
general ill health.
The recent rapid increase in the use OF
ammonia for various purposes, and the con-
seauent increase in its manufacture, have
made it one Of the most easily obtained
poisons and, although everybody is familiar
with it in some form, there is surprising
ignorance of its dangerous qualities. Its
use as an adulterant in any food prepara-
tion is simply crime, and as crime
/ should be punished.

THE WHEAT MARKET.

1t is now estimated that about one
fourth of the wheat crop in this county
has been threshed, but up to date there has
been very little yet delivered, the estimate
is placed at about 5000 bushels now In the
market, although a large amount of grain
has been contracted for. Last week wheat
was selling at IS and " cents per bushel,
but Monday it came up to so cents per
bushel and one of our leading farmers sold,
by contract, 6O00 bushels at so cents per
bushel with the privilege of delivering l0,-
900 bushel if he so desires. The yield this
year has surpassed the expectations of all,
and when the crop is marketed the farmers
who have had to pinch and save for the
last few months will soon have plenty.
With wheat at so cents we are unable to
advise whether to sell or holdfor better prices,
but the agricultural editor of the GAZETTE
says if he had wheat he would sell at so cents
rather than risk the future prices. This,
however, is a matter in which every farm
er should use his own judgment. This
much can be said of the wheat market in
Corvallis. As is the case every year wheat,
brings higher price in this city than at
anv other place in the Willamette valley.
Corvallis always has lead the market and
will continue to do so. The price paid for
wheat at all the mills and warehouses in
Corvallis this week has been so cents per
bushel. while at Albany the ruling price.
up to Thursday morning at least, has been
only IS cents. Five cents per bushel is a
big item to the farmer who has several
thousand bushels of wheat to sell and he
should be thankful that he lives in this
favored community. Some buyers iii
other places are inclined to lay the cause to
competition among local buyers here, bat
be that as it may, last year wheat brought
| from one to five cents more per bushel here
than at other places lin the valley, during
| the greater part of the season, and this year
| it starts out with five cents more per
bushel, and it is the writer's opinion the
cause is due to the liberal disposition of our
wheat buyers here not to ''gull' the farmer
| out of that which is justly due him but to
| give him all the advantages of the market
| and to pay him all his wheat is worth. 1t
| is also largely due to our superior location
| and advantages as a shipping point, the
| Oregon Pacific railroad, its river boats, and
competing lines by which wheat can be
promptly shipped to the leading markets Of
the world at very reasonable rate.
