new CARNA7|oN
Has Been Originated at Carthage,
Mo.-Are Selling High.

Carthage, Mo-, February 6.-Perry
Finn, the Carthage florist has acct
dentally originated a handsome new
variety of the carnation. The new
flower is large and unusually perfect,
has variegated color, being a faint
ping, striped with dark pink. 1t is
a sport from enchantress, pale
pink flower, differing very widely
from it. The sprout is from a slip,
which was planted year ago this
month. When this particular slip
came into bloom this winter, its flow
ers were noticed at once, and now
every slip from the plant will be
started for another year. The new
flower, the only one of its kind in the
world, is 49, inches in diameter, and
it is thought can be made to expand
to 4 inches by cultivation. Other
new varieties of the carnation have
been sold by their originators as high
as $4,000. Finn claims that hi:
new variety beats anything ever be
fore produced in that line, and plac
es the high valuation of $4,000 up
on it. With commendable home
pride. the florist proposes to give thu
new flower some name suggestive o,

WHO'S YOUR FATHER?
FARMER ASKED ARCHDUKE.
When Told He Suggested the Asylum

London, Feb. 6-An anecdote,
hitherto unpublished, concerning
Archduke Francis Charles, father of
the Emperor of Austria, appears IN a
new book written by a retired diplo-
mat.
During a walk alone in the Syrian
hills, the archduke got into conversa-
ton with a taIkatlve farmer, who,
after giving a good deal of informa
ton about his own family, suddenly
asked the archduke:
"What's your fatFler?'
EMPEROR was the answer
"Look here" said the farmer, "if
you want to be funny don't you
shout. There are gendarmes about,
and you might easily get run in for

"Oh, he's an emperor, too.'

'Isn't he an emperor -

After relieving his feelings by Civ

FARMERS WILL ORGANIZE.
sherman County VIII Initiate Umatilla
With an Association.

The farmers of Sherman county
will initiate the Umatilla county
wheatgrowers, in the formation of
an association for mutual advance
ment. George n. Crossfield, of Wasco,
who attended the meeting in this city
last Saturday. has returned home
highly enthusiastic over the first steps
taken by Umatilla county farmers and
will urge the farmers of Sherman
county to hurry up their organization.
While in eastern Oregon Mr.. Cross
field visited Union county and also
went to Walla Walla and Spokane, and
found that a farmers organization
similar to the Inland Empire Wheat
growers association is now in eXis-
tence in Spokane.
The Spokane Grain & Supply COM
pany, an association of farmers capi~
talized at 100000 last year saved
sufficient on grain sales by organic
ing pool, and also in the matter OF
freight rates and the purchase Of sacks
to amount to a dividend of cents per
bushel on each bushel OF grain mar
ketcd. This dividend was actually paid
to the members of the organization
last season, as profits from the or
ganiZation.
Sherman county produces about q
900, 900 bushels of wheat annually anf
is the second county in the state II
wheat yield, JTmatilla leading. The
farmers of that county are anxious t.
have jute plant installed at the Or
egon penitentiary for the purpose o
manufacturing grain and wool sack
! for Oregon. This matter will be plac
ed before the next session of the legis
lature by the representatives of tn
farming interest OF the state.

Rome itself is spoken of as the chair
or throne of st. Peter by some early
writer's, but the actual episcopal chair
which he is believed to have occupied
may still be seen in st. Peters, worm
eaten wooden structure, preserved in e
bronze covering, says the London
Chronicle 1t is from such chairs OF
episcopal and other authority, OF
course. that we get the phrase Tex ca
thedra" and the word cathedral" an
abbreviation of cathedral church" the
church that contains the bishops ca
thedra or chair. Some of the uses In
old fashioned English of the adjective
cathedral" seem quaint now. "Cathe'
dral dogmatism" meant not the dog
matism of dean and chapter, but that
of any one who spoke with an assump-
ton of authority. A cathedral beard
was a broad beard of fashion an
ciently worn by bishops, and In John
sons time cathedral seems to have
been slang for antique"

BOGUS FRIEND
Of The FARMER
SEARS AND RoEBUCK A PART
OF WALL STREET.
Big Mail Order House Has Posed as
the Friend OF the Farmer and the
Enemy of Monopoly But it Is shown
That IL Is Owned by the Octopus of
Wall Street.

The General Merchants Review,
trade publication of Chicago, exposes
the Sears, Roebuck and company in
their duplicity. This big firm which
has enjoyed a large mail order busi-
ness, has claimed all along to be OPP
posed to the trusts and monopolies,
but it is shown that it is a part Of the
Wall street gang. which has systemat-
ically robbed the people for years. The
Review says;
The philanthropic methods of Sears,
Roebuck & Co. have been exposed by
themselves in their latest move to
convert their mammoth mail order
retail business into huge $40,0OO,OOO
merchandise trust.
BY the action they have taken, is
shown very plainly that they have de-
cei-ed their customers for years by
their false arguments about the far
mer getting the advantage of their
ability to buy in large quantities and
thus save him money on their pur-
chases. They have given themselves
the lie in palmer terms than any one
else possibly could have done, in their
move to merge the entire business in
to a giant trust.
The profits that were alleged Ia
have been turned back to the country
customer. have in reality been fed
into Wall street and now all in one
lump Wall street is to receive ST.
500. 000 of real hard farmer coin while
Wall street gamblers are to get a
hand in this rich pie and hereafter
guide the course and determine the
destinies of the big rural supply
house.
Sears. Roebuck < Co. have boastet
for years that they have sold at les
prices than the the retailer could bu!
for. and all that sort of rot. whicl
every merchandise man and ever!
honest retailer knew was the vilest O
talsehnods.
Rcfute Their Own Arguments.
They have alleged that their busi
ness was run in the interests of tn
farmers and that they were satisfie,
with small profits, and that the
were willing to turn all above a smal
margin back into the hands of tn
farmers.
Now comes this giant merger. The
state themselves that their bushes
amounts to s5,000,O00 a month, an
that one years profits were 100000
This leaves out an added investmer
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1906-06-21

In buildings and equipment equal to
nearly twice that sum.
1t is very evident that Wall street
has had an interest in the business all
along and now the whole affair is go
ing to pass into the hands Of the worst
set Of gamblers the world knows, and
the former puts up the money.
Not long ago they started a
scheme to gather in the country coin
on which they agreed to pay interest
at the rate of I per cent. At the time
there was much speculation as TO
what this move was for.
Now comes the cheering informa-
ton that the new s40,000,000 trust is
to issue 100000 900 worth Of I per
cent preferred stock, and that the firm
members will retain million of this
for themselves.

The man who starts off his pigs on
the corn ration about as soon as he can
after they are weaned is laying in a
store Of trouble for himself later. There
is trouble known to swine raisers as
contracted stomach, which results from
an improper ration. The animal Is APP
parently "off its feed" but the fact is,
the ration has been so poorly balanced
that the stomach has not grown with
the growth of the rest of the body. If
the young pigs are to be allowed a
range they will do more or less root
ing, eating of soil and sod; as this is
their nature, it will not hurt them, but
If they are placed where one does not
wish the sod uprooted, then the ami
mails must be ringed. If middlings
and oilmeal are introduced with the
corn ration there will be considerably
less trouble. Some of the stock foods
on the market have their greatest value
to the swine raiser who does not feet
balanced ration and If these stocl
foods can be obtained practically fret
from drugs or condiments, they arr
very valuable in such cases.

When one has large area to plant
to potatoes the work of cutting the
seed tubers in the ordinary way Is not
inconsiderable. One who is handy can
readily make the seed cutter here de-
scribed and save considerable time In
preparing the seed for planting. Build
table about three feet deep and SIX
feet wide, setting on it legs so 1t Will
stand about twenty-five inches from
the floor, just high enough so the av-

comfortably when sitting down. Have
back to the table a foot high, with
sides cut so that at the front end they
will be not more than six inches high.
A similar board is run down the cen
ter, thus making table at which two
can work. In the side pieces, about
three inches from the end that Is open,
the front end, cut hole eight inches
long. A basket Is set under this hole
on the floor, and the cut tubers are
passed through the hole into the bas-

Dressing the Hair.

No more does the well-groomed girl
dress her front hair in great floppy
rolls that tumble down on the fore
head to meet her eyebrows. No more
do the eyes sparkle out from under
her tangled tresses like skye terriers
orbs. This was once the fashion. II
has "gone out" The best hairdressers
have firmly tabooed 1t. Girls are now
combing their hair in such manner as
to disclose to all observers the pleas
ant fact that Providence has really Civ
en- them nice, smooth, white foreheads
In one of the coiffures now much
In vogue little curls are besprinkled
all over the top of the head as If they
grew there.
Another mode Is the essence of sim
pllcity. 1t Is 'early Victorian" You
part the hair in the middle comb 1t Out
each side and arrange 1t to stand Out
over the ears This demands a net fol
the back hair.
A pretty innovation in the dress Golf
fure Is the weaving of ribbon of sill
yer, gold or tulle across the head
among the puffs Of hair, ending In ,
knot or bow on one side, well TOWARD
the back.

Cold Killed weevil.

In the cotton-growing season the
farmer is prone to forget the many
new facts, developed within the past
five years, concerning the protection
Of his primary crop against insects.
The leaf worm is easy enough. The
boil worm succumbs to poison and
machine gathering. The sharpshooter
and cotton-square borer can be sue
cessfully fought with paris green, &C
cording to the best authorities. The
boil weevil must be studied further
before final results can be announced
Fortunately, the severe winter just
past has put so many of these pests
out Of business that the cotton crop OF
Texas will be exempt from devastating
attacks from that source this season.

A Foolish Way Some Women Have

A Foolish Way Some Women Have.
We would all like our menfolk to be
polite and polished. We hope, indeed,
that they are-at least, at heart There
are some members of the sterner sex,
however, who never show up particu-
larry well in society, and some of these,
unfortunately, have wives who are all
too slow in approaching the fact
They badger the poor husband to
perform services which are obviously
quite out of his sphere and which are
Ill and grudgingly done. That he ought
to be able to make himself generally
useful in the drawing room one must
admit. The man, too, who Is some
thing of ladies" man Is certainly
more generally liked than he who is
less happy In small attentions, or, In
deed, at all uncouth.
At the same time the wife Of a man
who Is the least bit inclined to be a
rough diamond Is utterly foolish If she
Is constantly bewalling and seeking to
alter the fact. 1t were better If she
performed the small services for her
self and guests without comment. Bet
ter for all concerned.
The guest who Is waited on by a
man who is more or less forced into II
Is not happy. The temper of the wife
Is worn and spoiled by the irritation
consequent on keeping him up to the
mark, while he himself Is oft inclined
to stay away from the drawing room OF
house altogether, when his presence
only means complaining and continual
prompting to do what he thinks unnec
essary things.
No! train up man In the way he
should go, by all means, If he Is likely
to prove amenable. Should he be OF
sterner, less pliable, stuff, however, fol
his and your own sake, recognize this
and let him go his own, probably kind
ly though not gallant, way, rather thar
be continually stirring him up.-Home
