ALnANY,s rnosrrnIry.

There is no doubt that Albany is fast
sbeceming the center of trade in Ore
gon outside of Portland, and business
men are turning their eyes toward Al
bany as the future trade center for
Eastern Oregon and the Willamette
Valley upon the completion of the o.
P. R. r. The leading house in their
line is the firm of Knapp Burrell Il
Company, wholesale Agricultural I'M
plenient dealers, who occupy the finest
corner in Albany, aud carry the largest
line of farm implements, consisting of
fine buggics and hacks, road carts,
wagons, Monitor drills and seeders,
Oliver chilled and steel plows, Deering
harvesting machinery, and everything
i'm the implement line needed by the
farmers of this coast. This year they
are shipping their goods direct from
the factories to Albany, and looking
into their warehouse will convince the
most skeptical that they are in Albany
to stay. Mr.. +. H. Roscoe is their
manager, and his experience iu the
business enables him to know just
what the farmers want, and the lar
of goods seen leaving their
house daily is evidence that the FARM
ing public appreciates their presence in
Albany. EeaSend for catalogue and

learn that after ten months of suffering
she has at last been compelled to lose
her Injured limb. The amputation
was performed in Portland monday at
the Coed samaritan hospital by DIR.
Saylor, assisted by Drs. Cauthorn,
Panton and Geisy. The patient stood
the operation at the time very well,
but during the afternoon she began
rapidly sinking, and for two or three
hours all reasonable hope was aband-
oned- Later however she rallied and
was resting and giving every indica-
ton that all immediate danger was
passed.
