A Proclamation.

In accordance with a custom becoming
universal among our sisterhOod of States, /
do hereby designate and appoint WedneS-
day, the 9th day of May, in the year of our
Lord One thousand eight hundred and
nney-fOur, as ArbOr day.
Our people, and especially the teachers
and scholars of Ourpublic schools, are urged
to so observe the day that its results may
be felt with each succeeding year.
The formation of Village Improvement
societies, in the smaller as well as the
larger communities, will do very much o.
ward making our State yet more pleasant
attractive and healthful.
Nothing is more prejudicial to the ma
terial interests of the State than the distruc-
ton of our forests, while nothing is more
conducive to the beauty of the landscape,
the charm of the home or to the future value
of the soil, than the judicious planting of
trees or shTubbery.
The cultivation of fOrests-eXtensive, far
sighted aborculture-has become i'm many
States settled policy that our citizens
would do well to emulate.
Bare slopes and hill-tOpS, parched and
dry in the hot summer sun, would thus IN
time, be again covered with the growing
vegetation, which would shelter and sus-
tain the lessening rills that feed our failing
streams: while the wantOm fire and careless
axe should be guarded against, the care and
protection of the flower, plant ahd tree en-
cOuraged, that IN our waving pines the
insignia and traditions with which our
State has come down to us, may be perpet-
uated to later generations.
Given under my hand and the seal of the
State, at BrattlebOrO, this seventeenth day
of April, in the year of our Lord one thOus-
and eight hundred and ninety-fOur, and of
the Independence of the United States. the
one hundred and eighteenth.

APRIL'S NEED OF SLEEP.

Business Men, OvCr-tired Housekeep
ers, Teachers, Students and Men ant
Women in the Whirl of Society LacI
Rest.
Sweet sleep is natures soft nurse.
Half the fretfulness, sickness and com
planning might be laid at the door of lacl
of sleep.
There is not one man or woman in ter
thousand who can afford to do without sew
en- or eight hours sleep. All the stories
about great men and women who slept
three or four hours night make very in
Iteresting reading, but no one eyer kept
healthy in body and mind with less than
seven hours sound sleep.
Americans need more sleep than they are
getting. This lack makes them thin and
nervous, weak and complaining.
But one cannot will ones self to sleep.
If sleep will not come, there is an evident
arrangement of the nervous system. The
tired, worn out nerves need better nutrition
to restore them to their healthy action.
The rapid building up OF nerve tissues is
what makes Paine's celery compound so
prominently the great modern nerve and
blood remedy.
Sleep is the time of lowered expenditure
of nerve force and of increased repair all
over the body. Paine's celery compound
quiets the disturbed nervous system, feeds
its impoverished tissues and robs them of
all irritability; sound, refreshing sleep
ensues and the tired, despairing invalid
starts at once on the way to assured health
and strength.
A freshness in the countenance and an
absence of that panied, worn expression
comes after a short time taking Paine's
celery compound Neuralgia, rheumatism,
palpitation of the heart, headaches and the
host of discouraging signs of shattered
nerves are banished by this great remedy.
1t makes people well. Students and teach
ers stand the fearful strain of preparation
for spring examinations by building up the
body, strengthening the nerves and purify
ing the blood with Palue'S celery com

The greatest oddity on the western
coast is the moving mountain nf Colum-
bia river" says the St. Paul Dispatch.
This geographical curlositv is no NINA
ture "landslde" of few Insignificant
acres. but verilable mountain OF first
class dimensions. Its height is about
1000 feet; 1t has eight miles of river
frontage and three very prominent peaks.
That it is slowly but surely moving into
the great Salmon river Is tn ought that
probably ncy-r suggested itself to the
casual observer, but accurate measure
ments taken by civil engineers of high
repute have established the fact that such
is the case beyond reasonable doubt,
and that in the course of time it will
dam the river SO as to form a lake ex-
tending from the cascades TO the dalles,
In lis forward movement the mountain
has carried the forests which formerly
fringed the base of the ridge far out into
the river, and 1t is curious sight to see
the giant trees standing bolt upright IN
the water, IN sOmn instances with their
trunks entirely submerged The railroad
bed which skirts the mountain at this
point has been forced out of line nearly
twenty feet IN the last eight years If In
dan traditions and legends are to be
taken into account, the ''sliding mount-
ain" is not moving nearly so fast now as
it was years ago-in times previous 10 the
white mans advent in those regions.

server weather bureau:
Weather-Cooler than the average tenn
peraIure and excessive precipitation were
the weather conditions last week which
were prominent. Frosts occurred fire.
quently in the interior counties. The
sunshine was below the average.
Crops-In the Columbia river valley
crops have had no unfavorable weather
conditions to prevent their rapid growth.
A constant improvement is noticeable.
Cheerful reports are received from all.
The fall wheat crop bios fair to realize
the expectations of all classes concerned.
Fall wheat covers the ground In Una
tilla county and the spring seeding is
coming up. The ground has an abund-
apce OF moisture. While the tempera-
ture has been cool 1t has not checked the
growth of grasses or have the light frosts
injured truIt bloom. One report states
some damage done by squirrels, and also
notes the growth OF weeds in some wheat
fields. Grain and fruit prospects are
good, even fattering In many sections.
Garden work is progressing. Many po-
latoes have been planted. Seeding spring
gram Is being completed in many sec
tions. In some counties the average crop
has been sown and In others there has
been falling off.
Crops in the interior counties made
slow growth last week. The temperature
remained cold, and The excessive precIp-
itatIon was undesirable for fail sown
grain IN the valleys, many Of which have
been overfowed several times from the
high water in the creeks. The rains will
benefit grass on the range and cause
spring grain to sprout. Some fall sown
wheat will have to he resown; some was
winter killed. Apples, cherries, prunes
and apricols are blnoming IN favored
places. Bloom Is backward owing TO the
cool weather and the frosts which have
frequently occurred failed to inJure.
Lambirg is progressing with slight loss.
