ROYAL
IS THE
Best Baking Powder
The Official Government

The Official Government Reports:
The United States Government after elaborate
tests, reports the ROYAL BAKING POWDER to be of
greater leavening strength than any other. (B1l-
Atlu 13, Ag. Dep. +. 5o9)
The Canadian Official Tests, recently made, show
the ROYAL BAKING POWDER highest of all in leaven-
ing strength: (Bulefsn 10, f. 10, Inland Re0. DsbJ
In practical use, therefore, the ROYAL BAKING
POWDER goes further, makes purer and more perfect
food, than any other.
Government Chemists Certify:
"The Royal Baking Powder is composed of pure and
wholesome ingredients does contain either alum phos
phates or other injurious substances
edward G. LOVE, PHI. D."
"The Royal Baking Powder is undoubtedly the purest
and most reliable baking powder offered to the public.
"HENRY A. MoTT, M. D., PHI. d.

SOME FIRST THINGS IN OREGON
George Winslow was the first colored
man to reach Oregon. He came from
California in 1884 with Ewing Young.
In 1910 the ship Albatross, from Bos-
ton, entered the Columbia river and
sailed mp as high as Oak point, where
the captain erected a house, after hav,
ing cleared the land. So far as any re-
cord goes, this was the first house
built in Oregon. Lee, Parker and
Whitman were the first missionaries.
They came in answer to call from
the Indians made in 1882. The first
printing press received in Oregon came
rs a donation from the American
board Of foreign missions in the Sand
wich islands to the mission of the
board of Oregon. 1t reached its des-
tination at Lapwai and was put in
operation by E. o. Hall, who printed
books IN the Nez Perce language.
Both Mr.. Spalding and Mr.. Rodgers
soon learned to set type. This was
in 1889 and this same press is now at
the state house in Salem-Statesman.
THE GRAIN YIELD.-A number of
the state papers having been complain
ing of the shortness of this years crop,
it seems to us that somebody ought to
display the more cheerful of the pic
ture. We confess that crops have been
better than they are this year, yet at
the same time we should remember
that they might be much worse. Geo.
w. Smith, proprietor of the Corvallis
meat market, has gwen us the result
of his harvest and we have no hesita-
ton in declaring that if the remainder
of Benton county's agriculturalists Jared
as we'll they need not feel that their
crops are anything like failures: Fifty
acres of winter wheat produced 1910
bushels, an average of 25 2-7 bushels
per acre; ten acres of spring wheat
yielded 900 bushels, averaging
80 bushels to the acre; oats gave 1910
from 35 acres, average "a Al bushels
per acre; four acres of rye produced 80
bushels, average 22t; cheat grew 33S
bushels Oh five acres, average 81 3-5.
Better yields have been known, but
this is a good average yield and our
farmers ought not feel cast down at the
result of the harvest if they all do as
we'll as Mr.. Smith.
