New Agency Established.

A. 5. Thurber has just closed the con-
tract with the Houser & Haines Manu-
featuring Co., of Stockton, California, to
handle the Haines Houser combined
harvester for the territory OF Central
Washington and Eastern Idaho. The
Haines- Houser combined harvester is the
most efficient combined harvester in the
field today and has received an ample
trial in the Walla Walla country where
it was introduced several years ago aud
is now almost universally employed.
The machine has a record of cutting,
threshing, recleaning and sacking 1908
sacks of wheat i'll one day of IL hours.
This compared with the record of other
machines proves the superior utility of
the Haines- Hauser harvester In Cali
fornia it has been used with pronounced
success and Mr.. Thurber is fortunate in
securing territory where the demand for
economical harvest is immediate ard
pressing.

vorcees want to rt marry at once. Ii The
new law is in effect they will be COM
PEELED 10 wait six months. otherwise the
the license and the preacher are to be
had at a III oment's notice. To settle the
mooted question and avoid delay to some
trusting souls, Attorney Johnson tele-
graphed to the state auditor to see if the
new law carried an emergency clause, if
not to see when it went into effect. The
reply was that the law was not effective
until Nav 5 The presumption is that
the law did not carry an emergency
clause and is in legal effect after sixty
days from the end of the session.
