I thought surely my last chance was
slowly leaving me-. AS the foot did
not improve, you can readily imagine
how l felt. I was simply disguised

the second application is beyond

for the Cuticura Remedies took
effect Immediately I washed the foot
with the Cuticura Soap before applying

Turkey Red Does Not Freeze Out.

Henry Rosenberg of Fulton is very
friendly to the turkey red wheat in
spite of its tendency to shatter under
a stiff wind when ripe. He has given
ditions for several years past. It's
most valuable quality, aside from the
fact that it is a first-class milling
hard wheat, is it's hardihood under a
low temperature. 1t has come out in
the spring with a good, heavy and
healthy stand and growth, when other
wheat under the same conditions has
suffered severely and frozen out

Plan Of Company.
1t seems that the plan of this COM
pany is to amalgamate the interests
Of the proposed new company at this
place with the Natural Oil & Develop
ment Co., Of Montana which this
concern has established with consld-
cradle work done at this time, placing
10000 shares of treasury stock of the
Montana company on sale here anu
the amount derived from such safes
to be expen led for the development Oh
the Walla Walla enterprises, inc
present and future owners of the
Montana stock to participate in the
profits that may accrue from the
Walla Walla plant, and those VINO
take stock in the Walla Walla OF
home company to participate in the
profits of the Montana plant.
Is a Good Plan.
This would seem to us very IaIi
way to place this stock before the
people Of this vicinity as a lucky
strike of either oil or gas In elthef
place would mean a fine appreciation
of values Of stocks.
With no desire to dictate TO the
people Of Walla Walla as to what
they should or should not do. II o'-
ours to this committee that inasmuch
as it is more than likely that we are
located above millions of gallons u
oil that it is good business to ala III

the Assembly staircase in the state
sapitol, including the entrance to the

D report made to him by William Bar

pert engineers Of New York city, after
Ia exaniination OF the Assembly stair

With reference TO the crumbling con-
dition of the Assembly staircase, the

several years, are still in force, and that
state OF great internal stress exists
in that part OF the structure, and that
the public should be excluded from use OF
the staircase because OF the danger OF
