In like manner Hoods Sarsaparilla
expels from the blood impurities that
have been deposited during the season
when there has been but little perspira-
ton and perhaps constant confinement
in impure and vitiated air. 1t is a
boon to tired mothers, housekeepers,
teachers and others who spend their
time indoors.
1t gives the blood richness and vitali-
ty, fitting it to nourish and strengthen
the nerves, muscles and all the great
organs of the body. 1t cures all spring
humors and banishes that tired feeling.
1t is the best medicine money can
buy for all diseases caused by impure
or impoverished blood. You should
begin taking it today.

corporated The new company proposes TO
build and equip a line of railway from
some point not yet definitely determined
upon in Garfield county, to either Dayton
or Waitsburg in Columbia county or River
side in Walla Walla county.
1t Is most probable that the initial point
will be at or near Gould City in GARFIELD
county and that the terminus of the road
will be at Riverside. The line as 1t is now
proposed will first run south to a point
near the unA of the Northwestern boundary
ern direction crossing the western boundary
of Columbia county near Copper and on in
a northwesterly direction crossing the Ore
gon Railroad & Navigation Company line
near Bergman and on to Riverside. The
road, II completed on the proposed route,
will be about ninety miles long and will
pass through a very rich country for agri-
cultural and horticultural products. A
portion OF all these counties Is now COW
cred by the Oregon line, but some Of the
richest producing districts are compelled to
make long wagon hauls before reaching
transportation.
The entire road will be built by local
farmers and not dollar Of outside capital,
1t is stated, will be invested. All farmers
within a radius of several miles. Of the
proposed line, will take stock. Some will

1t is proposed, will furnish teams and no
trouble in constructing the line is anticipat-
ed.
Within two weeks a right-of-way will be
surveyed and shortly thereafter the work
of grading will be begun. The intention is
to have this part of the line In shape by
early spring so that track laying can be
done during the summer and the road COM
pleted to haul next years crop to market.
A sufficient amount of cash has already
been subscribed to warrant the ordering of
rolling stock and steel which will be done
shortly. Should the cash part Of the stock
subscription be inadequate to the needs.
bonds will be f1oated among the farmers to
complete the work.
In the beginning 1t is not the intention to
load up with any considerable amount of
rolling stock. A sufficient amunt will be
purchased to take care of the passenger
and freight business and more will be added
only as 1t Is needed.
At the present time Garfield county farm
ers are compelled to haul to Pomeroy. on
a branch of the Oregon Railroad & Nayi-
cation Company in the northern part of the
county. The Columbia county producers
find a market for their grain and other
products at Dayton, on another branch of
the same road, while Walla Walla farmers

Oregon Railroad & Navigation Company's
main line. several branch roads
