OREGON COUNTY GROWS TALL CORN.
Monster Pumpkins and Squashes Com pare favorabIy With Those of
 Middle West.

Portland, Sept. II. Visitors from the central states have been surprised at the showing which one county in Oregon has made at the Lewis and Clark exposition of products in which the Middle West is supposed to excel.
 In the Linn county section of the Agriculture and Horticul- ture building there are on exhi- bition several corn stalks four teen feet high. The stalks bear big ears, and the kernels are large and firm. As a general thing Oregon farmers find that the nights are too cool for corn, and that the early rains prevent it's maturing well, but the stalks shown by Linn county appear to prove the exception.
 The county has also on exhibi- tion an assortment of monster pumpkins and squashes which look like those exhibited at Iowa and Missouri state fairs. There is one sweet pumpkin that weighs 85 pounds, and a squash that tips the scale at 76 pounds.
 The county also shows some Russian side oats, so called from the fact that the oats grow at one side of the stalk, on which the heads are 32 inches long. In the display of grasses 32 varie- ties are show, and the specimens include some vetch twelve and a half feet tall.
 Linn county is situated in the Willamette valley, one of the most fertile places in the world, where fruits and grains of near 1 ly every kind furnish.

Thousands Die of it Every Year.

Kidney disease is the enemy we have most to fear as result of the feverish restlessness of modern civilization. It is treacherous enemy, working out its deadly effect under cover of the most trihing symptoms. The first indication of changes in the urine, frequent head aches, digestive troubles, should be the signal for prompt remedial measures. Prickly Ash Bitters is kidney remedy of the greatest merit; it is soothing, healing and strengthening, quickly re- 1ieves the aching or soreness that always appears in advanced stages, checks the progress of the disease and through its excellent cleansing and regulating effect in the stomach, liver and bowels, it brings back the strength and ruddy glow of vigorous health.
 Accept no substitute. Insist on having
 the genuine Prickly Ash Bitters with the
 large figure in red on the front label.

The sense of sight grows most precious, though often the best of glasses cannot restore to old eyes even a portion of their youthful power. These facts should impress all with the im- portance of early care for the organs of sight. Do not wait till your eyes become impaired, but have them tested at once, as often an eye specialist can detect and remedy in time what might prove a serious trouble if ne- elected.

STOCKMEN MAY
REAP HARVEST
Predictions Are for Strong Cattle
Market for the Year
1905.

According to cattlemen living in
southern New Mexico, the spring cat
tie sales will greatly exceed those Of
last year and heavy shipments are pre-
dicted. Although the stockmen lost q
large portion of the calf crop early this
year on account of the drouth, they
will be able to deliver plenty of one,
two and three-year-olds to the market
ii the price Is right.
During the past week several con-
tracts have been made with cattlemen
of Grant County for the delivery at the
stockyards at Silver City of large
number of head. The Crowfoot Cattle
Company secured the biggest contract
and the price paid will be .$11 for one
year-olds. This price is not very high
but 1t is expected to improve after the
first of the year.

BEAUTIFUL SNOW
WRAPS THE CITY
Six Inches of it in the Capital This
Morning-MeIting Rapidly.

When Santa Fe residents awoke this
morning they discovered that the city
was in the throes of deep snow. The
storm which brought forth so much of
the beautiful began Sunday night
about o'clock and continued until
midnight. The flakes fell thick and
fast and it was not long until the
trees, tops of houses, streets and the
ground were sheet of perfect white
ness. When business men and others
left their homes and started out to
work at an early hour they found walk
ing exceptionally difficult and some
places next to impossible. There
were fully six inches of snow, but
much has melted during the day and
If the sun continues to shine the
snowy shroud will all be destroyed by
this time tomorrow.
The results of the storm were main
topics of conversation about town this
morning. On every hand could be
heard adverse and favorable criticism,
some wishing that the snow would 60
away Immediately and others desiring
It to remain. "I have been In Santa
Fe practically thirty-two years." re-
marked County Commissioner Arthur
Seligman and this Is the worst I re-
member. The weather man certainly
got even with this community, but we
were all somewhat prepared because
he has been limiting at this for several
weeks.
Eighteen years have been in this
city and never experienced such a
snow" said H. w. Kennedy, the whole
sale hardware man. when awoke
this morning could hardly believe my
eyes and was hesitant about going
out upon the street. But, there ia
one satisfaction-snow in Santa Fe
lasts but brief season."
The actual precipitation was 6.3
inches, the heaviest in years.
Last nights storm does not seem to
tave extended north along the Den-
yer & Rio Grande road as the Tres
Piedras office reports light snow
there this morning. South Of here
along the Santa Fe Central some snow
fell, but only moderately. The agent
o. Kennedy reports two inches and the
agent at Estancia an inch. East On
the Santa Fe the fall was heavier, az
at Las Vegas about four inches was
the result Of the storm. At EmberaO.
80 miles north Of Santa Fe, there NJ
very little snow.
Locally the record was 0.41. me1tGx
