The partridge has long been in
favor as a breakfast food and as
splendid nourishment tor the sick
and well, but he is now coming into
wide favor and renown as the far
mer's friend. He is q candidate for
the high perch of national bird. His
partisans assure us that he is q stout
ally of the American husbandman
and much more active defender Of
American agriculture and prosperity
than the proud, high-fying eagle.
Ornithologists who, under govern
ment auspices, have. been studying
the partridge, say that he is a win
ner. Only about one-fourth of his
food is grain, 10 per cent. corn, 3
per cent. wheat and the balance mil
let, barley, sorghum, rye and oats.
He does not steal this, but gathers
it after il has been lost in the field.
He never pulls up sprouted grains
after the fashion of the crow. He
does not rub orchards, though he is
fond OF fruit, eating wild grapes,
dewberries and wild straw berries.
His long suit is as q weed-seed and
insect eater. He is a glutton for
seeds OF the smart weed, pigweed,
sheep sorrel and ragweed. He has
a passion for the potato bug. the
ladybird bug, the chinch bug, the
bean beetle, cucumber beetle, boil
weevil, caterpillar, cutworm. army
worm, wireworm cotton worm, To-
Gust and other crop destroyers. In
many States the partridge is now
being taken into close communion
by the farmers instead of being
treated as an outlaw. May he
flourish and multiply.

Marriage Trust AIagnate.

Judge William Hill, who dispen-
ses justice at Sunnyside when not
engaged in pursuing the festive dol
lar arrayed in the fine raiment or
common garb of a dozen other cal
lings, is pretty much the whole
thing when it comes to Quitting
for the married state. A few days
ago love-sick young man called on
the Judge and requested his services
to unite him in holy bonds, etc.
by the way, Judge" said the
young man, "ain't you the proprie-
tor of the dance hall2"
~ am" replied the justice.
well, | want it for a dance.
How about the muster"
well, l can supply that, too, /"
replied the Judge.
Then l must give a supper. -
said the soon-to-be benedict.
well, am a professional cook, ("
replied his honor, land can serve
you very nicely in that line.
.All right" said the young man.
Now Imust see q photographer and
make arrangements for photos of
wedding party"
Hold on, said the limb of the law.
as the young man was about to slim
out Of the door. THAT is In NV
line, too. Photography is where |
shine, and If you don't want to go to
Price for the marriage license | can
fix that too"
Well, III be, gasped the
lover, as he planked down a yellow
piece of money as part payment for
the proposed service. Then he
said: do yon also furnish cradles
and baby carriages?"

The day is always short to the

AS long as the world expects

there will be a continual harvest of

The successful man goes about
his business with the same energy

The man who does no more than
he is paid to do is usually the man
who is complaining about not getting

His Legal Habit.

A lawyer practicing before the
bar of New York city relates an
amusing instance of the propensity
of Q certain Judge Of . Circuit Court
10 regard all questions from the
standpoint of the judiciary.
One day it appeared that travel
er, stopping at the gate of the couu-
try house owned by the Judge, in
quired politely of the owner, sitting
on the veranda, whether he would
be good enough TO indicate the road
to Newburg.
Take the one Immediately to
your right, was the reply.
The traveller thanked his infor-
mant and continued his journey.
Several hours later he returned.
and the Judge was still on the
veranda.
Sir" exclaimed the traveller,
with unconcealed indignation, "you
must certainly be aware that ten
miles from here on the Newburg
road there is stream, over which
il is impossible for one to swim.
and which has neither bridge, ford
or ferry. Why did you not inform
me2"
Sir. responded the Judge, with
convincing earnestness, ''the ques-
tion was not before me. As 10 your

description referred 70, I was en-
tirely vii ing 70 hear argument.

A Husband's Deflclencies.

You are aware no woman can
make good for her husbands def
ciencies. The best wife in the
world cannot. do il.
There are many things, though,
that the wife Of a man OF average
ability can do for him which will
make her price above rubies and 60
o long way toward accomplishing
his success in life.
One Of these things is to keep
alive his faith in himself. There
comes a time in every man career
when bis fate rests in his wife's
hands. It is when the battle goes
against him and he is tempted TO
give up in despair.
Then If his wife reminds him that
luck always has been against him,
that she told him he would fail, and
she knows he never can succeed,
that mans doom is sealed.
On the other hand, If she goes
ahead hopefully, always reckoning
him on, telling him she knows he
can overcome all obstacles, steadily
showing her faith in him, and re-
fuslng 10 give IL up she viii inspire
him with courage and determination
which will eventually win success.
Another way in which she can
help him is by taking an interest in
his business. Whether he sells salt
herring or writes sonnets, she ought
to make him feel it a pleasure to
talk to her about what he has been
doing.
She may know all about his oc-
cupation, but il she is sensibly in.
terested her intuitions will be
flashes Of genius by which any man
might profit.
A man s business is closer TO his
heart than anything else, and it is a
foolish woman indeed who does not
oCC buC OOuCheo OOSn
from comradeship on that score.
Then a woman may be of invalu-
able assistance to her husband by
making friends for him, or she can
do him incalculable harm by making
enemies. She can selfishly tie him
to her apron strings, or she can
urge him out among people who can
help him.
Above all ether ways she can pros
per his career by keeping home
comfortable for him. 1t is strange
how many women fail to realize that
home is the powerhouse in which
wage-earners of the family should
gather energy to fight and win the
battle of life.
Every Preside ought to be IA haven
Of peace, where jaded nerves may
be soothed and restored. IL the
woman who is happily married
chooses to exhaust her husband
strength on foolish household tasks,
STAY hi,c with bad cooking, other
wise give him a hit-or-miss home
life, she is deliberately pulling him
down into 0bscurity.
II she builds him up with proper
foods, sends him out cheered and
rested and restored, with faith in
himself and in her. she is pushing
him straight on to success.

''The Athena Press and the Weston
Leader also knocked the Tribune
on the shortage. We do not ask them
to apologize, but we will accept their
greater respect as we know it will be
forthcoming"
The above is to be found in Satur-
days Pendleton Tribune and relates
to the shortage of $9,O51.ss, in the
sheriff's office, the portion for Taylor's
term being $3,479.76 and for Blak-
ley's $5,572.12. Apologize What
for? For calling the callow and i'm
mature editor of the Tribune down
to the level Of fairness and fact,
when he made the untruthful state
ment that the sheriff's office was
short over $4,000 when $12,406. 70
tax money was in the custody OF the
Office instead of in the hands of the
county treasurer, only for the reason
that the rolls had not been balanced?
Apologizel For standing by an
honest official, whose only fault (and
he paid for it by personal check to the
county in the sum of $3,479.76) is
that he placed too much trust in a
subordinate? II Mr.. Dodd ever gets
an apology from Clark Wood or Fred
Boyd it will not be in the "good old
summer time;'' for the apologies will
be CONCEALED III icecicles of such
magnitude that the employees of the
Pendleton cold storage plant will be
shoveling smoke in Hades and
every locomotive on the Hartman
system will be coughing hail and
frost in place Of sparks and steam.
Greater respectl For ability in mix
ing news story that reeks with
the ulteriorl motive of blemish-
ing the character of an honest man
whose implicit confidence in another
was misplaced; or for the politica !
capital the Tribune editor endeavors
to make out Of the matter-which?

Contracting for the domestic wool
clip of 1905 is reported to have be-
gun. One Boston firm is said to have
secured 1000, 600 pounds in Wyoming
within the last two weeks at from
seventeen to nineteen cents, as against
sixteen to seventeen cents paid last
fall for this years clip. Boston
houses are reported to be also operat.

tract extensively. Growers, however,
are hard to deal with, and there is
too much risk involved for dealers to
pay great advance over the prices
that ruled on this years crop.
