that it be made of the best flour,
which is the Red Crown. The
Yaq. Bay Mere. Co. has it.
If you want to buy new dress,
look over the dress goods, ging-
hams, outing fannels and calicos at
Tellefson's Cash Store, Yequina
City.

who secured the contract for furnishing
flour to the Siletz, was over this week
making arrangements to get the flour
hauled over to the agency.
The few days of light rain the first of

ing the depot grounds at this place.
The walk past the depot has been re-
paired and widened, and several car
