nUR glove stock is the best
~ patronized and most popular
in this vicinity, because we make
a constant effort to show a larger
line, and offer better glove values
than any other local dealer. It is
not easy to do satisfactory kid
glove business. 1t requires long
experience, careful buying, con-
scientious selling and a willing
ness to be content with a small
profit. We recognize all these
requirements and conform to them.
That's why Corvallis women can
get better gloves here for the
price than elsewhere,

STEAMER ALBANY.
The Corvallis & Eastorn Railways Boat
Goes to the Three-Mife Rapid.

The Corvallis & EaStorh Railways Boat
Goes to the Three-Mi1e Rapid.
The fast river steamer, the AL
banY, formerly on the run between
this city and Portland, has been
secured by Paul Mohr's Ste amboat
Co. for service on the Columbia.
She will be used as a construction
boat between The Dalles and the
terminus of the Portage road at the
Big Eddy. It is thought that she
will be utilized to transport ties
from various points on the river to
Big Eddy. She is in command of
Capt. Johnstone, who, with a COM
peteni crew, took her to the middle
river Wednesday. One of the pur-
poses that the Albany will be used
for is to determine how great is the
danger Of navigation on the Three
Mile Rapid. This is a very wild
place and at no point along its
banks could man be buried, and
there is not thing along it's shores
to which line can be made fast.
The river pours through a narrow
gorge of shelving rock; there is a
rapid current and nearly always a
heavy sea. II takes strong boat
to stem the current and it is thought
that the Albany will meet all re-
quirements, as she is light draught
and has been proved to be the swift
est boat on the Upper Villa mette.

EXPERT JOHNSON.
He Discovered a Pure White Snnf1ower
Entirely New to Botanists.


Mr.. A. J. johnson, forestry ex
pert, visited Corvallis and the Ag:
ricultural college last week on his
return to Portland from Southern
Oregon Mr.. johnson collects fol
nearly all the botanical gardens all
over the world, and has orders for
any kind of plant which is rare and
beautiful and worthy ofcultivation.
He has not made any new discov-
cries of late, but for the past month
has been travelling to all sorts of
out-ofthe-way places, collecting the
roots of rare and curious plants,
which he located ana marked last
summer, but which could not be
removed at that time. In this col.
Letting tour he has experienced
many hardships and difficulties in
finding the plants he was after, as
they were mostly in attitudes of
from 1000 to 5000 feet, and most
Of them were still buried under the
snow.
He first went to the Wallowa
country, where last summer he dis
covered pure white sunfower-
entirely new to botanists-rare,
beautiful and valuable commercial
ly on that account. When he reached
the place where he had discovered
the plant, after travelling five miles
over frozen snow two feet in depth,
he found the spot he had marked
and after shoveling away the snow
he found the roots, and as the
ground was not frozen, had but lit.
tie trouble in securing some fifty of
the roots. AS soon as these were
planted in his nursery they started
to grow and made as much growth
in three or four days as other plants
have in as many weeks.
