WApED UP STREAM. A good story
Is being told on two OF Salem's pop
ular young men, one of whom assists
In n stationery store while the other
is a jeweler. The young gentlemen
thought they would take boat ride
Sunday, and accordingly secured n
boat and started down the placid
waters of the willamette. When
they had noated down the river for
quite II distance, they decided TO re-
turn home, II was an easy matter TO
float down stream, but to stem the
tide apparently necessitated more
metal than the young men possessed,
since they were obliged to get out OF
the boat and pull II through that por-
tion OF the river where the stream is
rather swift,

Deafness Cannot BE cn,ed

by local applications as they cannot
reach 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
intlamed condition OF the mucous
lining of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube is infamed you have a
rumhling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when IL is entirely closed, Deaf
ness Is the result, and unless the
Inflammation can be taken out, and
this tube restored TO its normal condi-
tian hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an
infiamed condition OF the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrhl that cannot be cured by

MALIGNANT SCARLET FEVER.
Two Children Dead from This Fatal
Disease.

Disease.
DR.. w. II. Byrd was this morning
called to the home Of II. ID. BrunK,
about two miles beyond Eola, IN POLK
county to visit their little son, VINO
had been sick several days with a
malignant form of scarlet fever, but
the doctor arrived too late, as the lit-
tie sufferer had passed away.
About two weeks ago this FAMILY
lost a 13-year-old daughter with the
same terrible disease, having been SICK
but short time. The boy, VINO was
years old, was taken down saturday
evening, and his case was almost hope
less from the start. Thus the family
have lost their only two children with
hardly any warning, and considerable
fear is manifest in the community.
There had been several cases up
nearer Independence, resulting in one
death, but no more cases are known at
present, and sincerely hope this may
be the last of it.

The Line viii Probably BE Improved
and Operated.
The bids on the Salem Motor Rail-
way company will probably be consid-
cred by the court this week, when the
property will no doubt fall into other
hands.
1t has been reported on the streets
since the bids were opened for the
Motor Railway that some of the bids,
and among them that of ThOs Hol
man, were on the basis of tearing up
the track and selling the whole plant
for old junk. However this may be,
Mr.. Holman was seen in regard to
his bid, and he declares un-
hesitatingly that his bid
was made in good faith with view
to operating the road and building
up the business. Should his bid be
accepted he proposes to repair the
line and place the same in first-class
running order. Tom Holman is not
in the junk business, and has too
many interests at stake TO see the
road tied up. He has always been an
enterprising citizen, pushing forward
for the up-building Of our city and
always will be factor for our pro-
gress and prosperity. His was lowest
sealed bid, and the road may come
onto his hands. He could make 1t go
IL any man can.

advocated and pushed in the Dade
colonies.
That such a move would be one of
wisdom can scarcely be questioned
The so-called wild groves throughout
the county are proof that the soil is
well-adapted to citrus culture. Be-
sides this, there exist many splendid
young groves that will be in bearing
within year or two.
Just what is the quality of the
fruit our soil produces is yet un-
known positively. Those who have
eaten oranges grown in this section,
however, say they are excellent for
flavor and quantity of juice-equal
in this respect to the famous Indian
river fruit.
There are some rich stretches of
hammock in Dade that may be devot-
ed to the successful growth of the or
ange. On the East Side of Lake
Worth, all the land we should say is
suitable for this purpose. The small
groves already there show it. Let us,
therefore, turn our attention to the
work and make Dade as noted for it's
orange and lemon groves as it will
soon be fore its pineapple fields. 1t
can be done.-Ex.

Another Point in Asparagus Culture.

1t is valuable for those who pur-
pose to start, or have started new
beds, as well as for those who have
old ones. We have a bed of aspara-
gus which was in good bearing condi-
ton 81 years ago, when we bought
the farm. 1t is doubtless 80 years
since the bed was started, and it has
never yielded as abundantly as it did
this year.
For many years, the little shoots
springing annually from the scat
tered seed caused more trouble than
the weeds. The latter were small
and not difficult to eradicate, and as
soon as we ceased to cut the aspara-
gus it very quickly shaded the
ground, so the weeds could not
grow; but if these little shoots were
not repeatedly and often removed
they would soon overrun the bed
county, O., horticultural meetings,
that if the seed-bearing or female
plants in a new bed we're eradicated
as soon as they were discovered, or
at least before the seed ripened,
there would be little or no trouble
with the young shoots, and the pro-
cess would improve the growth Of
the remaining plants.
To remove these seed-bearing roots
is not practical in an old bed, and
the inquiry was raised what could be
done. The reply was: ''Cut off every
year all the seed-bearing stalks, and
allow no seed to mature"
This has been done in our bed for
several succeeding years; the num-
Der of these seed-bearing plants has
perceptibly diminished, and there is
"a marked decrease in the shoots. In
one clump, apart from the main bed,
no buds have been seen for two
years. Presumably the repeated cut
ting has weakened the power of the
plants to produce seed, and in time
we shall expect the mischievous red
berries will entirely disappear. This
wear there were only few to re-
move, and scarcely any shoots to pull
up. while the bed has constantly in
creased in fertility.
The point of value is to remove the
roots of all female or seed-bearing
nlants from a new bed, and weaken
them by repeated and long continued

The vegetable growers of Bowling
Green have not realized satisfactory
profits from shipments of vegetables
so far. The strawberry output will
not be half as large was expected
on account of the drouth. Less than
third of the plants set out lived.
If there is similar shortage in the
crops of other sections strawberries
ought to bring good prices this sea-
son.
