Willard G. Wright. the assayer, has
just completed a most complete assay
office and sampling works. He has
installed an electric motor which
operates the two crushers for prepar-
ing ore for assay. The motor will also
be used to run one-stamp mill that
will be installed at once. A 3O0-pound
assay plant has also been put in
operation. This will be used to test
the tailings from the stamp mill. Mr..
Wright will soon be prepared to make
mill tests Of samples in small or large
lots. He also intends buying ore to

REMARKABLE AWAKENING
American People Are Beginning to
Realize the Importance of Good
Roads and Streets.

Under the title, Tendencies in
American Road Legislation" Profes.
sor F. G. Young, of the department OF
economics and sociology, U. of o.,
publishes bulletin of interest to the
friends of good roads, and from which
some extracts are hereby made
The American public exhibits a re.
markable awakening during the last
fifteen or twenty years to its interests
and problems involved in it's public
roads, The people throughout all Sec
tions of the country are no longer SO
unmindful as they were Of the fearful
waste of energy in the use Of unneces-
sarily bad roads. They are becoming
aware that the listless but burdensome
efforts for the improvement and re-
pair Of roads, under unskilled super
vision and for an unresponsive public
have been largely thrown away; and
yet these results attending road work
have been all but universal.
Rural communities are coming to
realize that not only the enjoyment of
better schools and better library and
mail privileges but also the adoption
of more intensive and more profitable
forms Of farming, the taking advant-
age of the most profitable time for
marketing and the periods of highest
prices, as we'll as commanding the
higher and more healthful forms of
recreation that recent Inventions have
made available all these best things
in life are largely conditioned upon
securing good roads. 1t is dawning
upon all that good roads will be the
largest factor in restoring the balance
of advantages again to farm life and
in so doing will serve as the deepest
regenerating influence in our civiliza-
ton. But good roads help the city
dweller only less than they do the
resident in the country. In word,
they will help both the farmer and
him who exists in the artificial
environment of the city to make con-
nections with just those vital things
in life heretofore denied to each. The
good road is an essential element in
the ideal life in either the city or
country. A good road will
Q) Economic time and force in
transportation between farm and mar
ket;
(2) Enable the farmer to take ad-
vantage of market fluctuations in
buying and selling;
(3) Permit transportation of farm
products and purchased commodities
during times of comparative leisure !;
az Reduce the wear and tear on
horses. harness and vehicles;
(E) Enhance the market value of
real estate.
Making a most careful dollars-and-
cents estimate from inquiries sent to
sixty Of the most intelligent farmers
in forty counties located in the central
and northern parts of Indiana he finds
that good roads may be built and
maintained without it's being a whit
harder on the pocketbook than in get
ting along with poor roads. With the
poor roads we have delays, accidents
and vexation of spirit to boot and with
good roads comfort and all the devel-
opmental advantages of the higher
life

Impoverished Soil

impoverished soil, like impov-
erished blood, needs q proper
fertilizer. A chemist by analyz-
ing the soil can tell you what
fertilizer to use for different
products.
If your blood is impoverished
your doctor will tell you what
you need to fertilize it and give
it the rich, red corpuscles that
are lacking in it. 1t may be you
need a tonic, but more likely you
need a concentrated fat food,

in your system.

SECOND TEAM WINS.

The college second team defeated
the Salem high school boys in the
Gymnasium, Tuesday evening,by the
close score of Is to 10. A fair-sized
crowd was in attendance, and the
game was highly enjoyable. The
Salem players were outelassed both in
height and weight, but we're quick on
their feet and played a plucky game.
Their good-natured and gentlemanly
manners won the warmest admiration
of the spectators, and visitors and
home boys came in for an equal share
of applause for every good play made.
The Dallas second team will meet the
Portland Tigers in this city tomorrow
night, and swift game is anticipated.

SCORE ANOTHER VICTORY
Dallas College Basketball Players De-
feat Willamette University In
Fast Game.

The largest crowd of the yeal
greeted the Willamette University
basketball players last Saturday even.
ing, when they met the Dallas College
team in the Dallas gymnasium. The
evening was ideal, and the promise ol
good game drew an enthusiastic
crowd Of Dallas rooters, Salem also
sending several hackloads Of young
people to cheer the University boys to
victory. The game resulted in score
Of rs to in favor of Dallas.
While the victory for the home team
was decisive, every point made was
stubbornly contested by the visitors.
During the first half, Dallas failed to
connect with the basket properly and
succeeded in getting only two field
goals, but were so perfect in their
guarding that the University for
wards scarcely had a look-in. The
first half lasted only Is minutes, and
resulted in score of to l in favor OF
Dallas.
With the beginning Of the second
half, the home team, with splendid
teamwork and their old-time goal
throwing, soon had the score moving
upward at rapid rate. This half
continued for the full 20 minutes with
the snap and swiftness that character
lied its beginning.
Shaw, at center, played one of the
best games ever seen in Dallas, scor-
ing five baskets over his opponent.
Reynolds and Teats also played fine
game as forwards, Reynolds scoring
two baskets and Teats three. Ford
and Morton, at guard, held down
their men IN way that was good to
see. The lineup and points made by
each player follows:
Dallas Willamette
Teats (9) .,... forward Miller
Reynolds (4 ]. forward ,. Judd (6)
Shaw Q0).... center .......R RAIDER
Ford guard ..... Whipple
Morton (2) So. guard ...... Nelson

The Dallas team will play return
game with O. A. G. in Corvallis to-
night. If successful, as the rooters
confidently predict they will be, the
boys can again justly claim the
championship Of Oregon.

The Tillamook Herald says that the
effects Of the local option law in that
town are plain to those who are not
too blind to see. The paper claims
that as much liquor is consumed as
ever before, and that every boat from
Portland and Astoria brings in new
supply, with the result that drunkenness
is on the increase, and young boys
not out Of their teens are being dOped
with the worst "rot-gut' whiskey
imaginable. Truly, deplorable state
Of affairs, if correctly reported.

Messrs. Horton. Holloway: Thompson and
Smith, have purchased track of 20 acres
north of the railroad track at Canton,
where it is proposed locating the pulp
mill. The land was purchased from J.

buildings to be erected will cover twenty
acres of this tract.
The promoters of the pulp plant have
taken an option on a water power on the
Pigeon river; three miles from Canton.
The river will be harnessed and the plant
operated by electricity.
The raw material for the pulp mills will
come from two large boundaries of timber
lands embracing 100, ZOO acres or more,
recently purchased from Ramsley 6 Co.
and McCrary, Young s. Go. One of the
boundaries is known as the Shining Rock
tract, and is said to contain millions of feet
of balsam, the wood from which it Is pro-
posed to make the pulp. The timber
tracts are said to have cost about 81, ,OO0,-

concern have already been sent into the
forests to cut 400, 1000 feet of timber to he
