Important experiments have been
carried on by the naval authorities az
Portsmouth, England, for some time
to ascertain the extent of the steam
ing properties of fresh coal, which has
been improved by storage in the sea
Eighteen months ago iron crates, eacf
containing two tons Of coal, were sunk
in a big basin in the dOckyard. AT
the same time a similar quantity or
coal was carefully stored in the open
air at a coaling point and sheltered
by tarpaulins.
At intervals Of six months tWo-ton
samples of exact storage have been
taken and carefully burned. The re-
suits have shown conclusively that by
the submarine storage of coal its calor-
ifc value steadily increases, while o!
storage in the open air a decided de-
crease is shown. At interval stations
in the tropics the decrease in calorlnc
value is very great, the heat OF the sun
extracting the light. volatile oils. Inc
difficulty is that submerged q must

is, the tubercles attack certain parts.
z, n meat is cooked before it is
eaten, and the germs are DESTROYED:
3, q muscular and fat parts are
rarely ever affected. The milk IS
takea raw.
This explanation seemed satisfac-
tory.
After DR.. Butler had been heard
the board decided to appoint a COM
mlttes to confer with Mr. Moore and
come 10 ONE agreement about what
hould be done with the affected cat
tie. Mayor McNinch appointed the
following named aldermen to serve
on hat committee: Messrs. w. F
Dowd, j. P. Carr. E. S. Williams and
NJ. F. Kirby. These gentlemen have
the power to act as they see fit,
Mr.. Hugh w. Harris, city attorney
gave it as his opinion that under the
provisions Of the ordinance the board
OF aldermen have the power TO order
the condemned COWS to be killed. but
IN that case must pay one-half Of
their appraised value, according 10
the terms Of the ordinance, which
terms were agreed upon by all the
dalrymen when the ordinance was
adopted. He further stated that Mr..
Moore might take the responsibility
Of shipping the condemned cows %
some place for inspection for Deef.
but could not keep them at his dairy
if he remained a licensed dairyman
Upon being questioned by Alderman
Williams as to the liability Of the
city, in cast Mr.. Moore should Object
TO the destruction of his cows, or re-
fuse 10 accept n half Of their aD-
praised value, Mr.. Harris stated that
in that case the city would be liaDle
only for the actual value Of the cows
in their diseased condition and rflat
such COWS would not be found wOrth
very much.
About the time the meeting got in
full sway Mr.. Med. Watkins a prom
inent candidate for the Safe Senate
and a Well-knOWn dairyman. saun-
tered into the hall and took a seat
The mayor seeing him there, called
on him for a few remarks from the
standpoint Of a dairyman.
Mr.. Watkins spoke right out. Among
other things he said that the present
milk ordinance would break up the
NC|A DASi4SC az -IVthIC1ibuI toul1LN -.
He argued that it was not practical.
for the reasOn that all of the COWS
could not be tested. If the city would
tick to the inspection Of milk the law
would work.
He did lot think tuberculosis could
be transmitted for DR.. Cooke, an emil
nent German specialist, had said that
it could not be.
At the close Of the meeting the al
dermen gave DR.. Butler a rising vote
Of thanks for his service and kind
ness.
Mr.. DOWd and his committee will
determine the fate Of the Moore cows.
The public is interested in the mat
ter and will not be satisfied until all
is over Mr.. Moore has sold the
sound COWS of his herd and will quit
the dairy business. He tried to buy
COWS to take the places Of those
that were condemned but he would
not take one until the owner had it
tested and there the trouble arose. He
did not find a man who was willy to
permit the test.-CharlOtte Observer.

An Opinion That Should Re of Inter

So many patent medicines and ad-
yertised cures are now offered to the
public that our readers should be glad
to know the opinion of a man who
has spent years in handling them and
profit by his advice.
Mr.. Brock, OF Brock & McComas
Co, local druggists, says: after hav-
ing sold drugs. and all kinds and
makes of medicines for SO many years,
naturally we have learned something
about them-their value and power to
cure, and we want to say to the read
ers of the Fast Oregonlan that il the
people of Pendleton only realize the
real curative and strength giving pow
er of our cod liver oil preparation,
Vinol, we would not have clerks
enough in our store to fill the demand
for it,"
Continued Mr.. Brock: You see,

body building, and strength-creatins
properties OF cod liver oil actually
taken from fresh Gods livers, but
without a drop OF the system-clogging,
nauseating oil. Vinol makes rich,
red blood, and tones up and invlgor-
ates every organ in the body.
