How Diphtheria is Contracted.

One often hears he expression. My
child caught "a evere cold which de-
veloped into diphtheria." when the
truth was that the cold had simply left
the little one particularly susceptible
to the. wandering diphtheria germ.
When Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Is
given it quickly cures the cold and
lessons the danger of d%iphtheria or
any other germ disease being con
tracted. For sale by all druggists.

Arm Ont Off by Traln.

s, James Hoagan, son of John Hoa-
gan, who has dairy farm about a
mile west of the city, was run over
by a switch engine in the shop yards
about ~ o'clock last night and his
right arm completely severed from
his body, save for a few shreds, be-
tween the elbow and the wrist. No
one saw the accident and the young
man himself does not remember how
1t happened.
Young Hoagan, who is about 22
years old, had come to The Dalles as
he is accusomed to do each evening
and was returning home when he
slipped and fell on the track. The
switch engine was coming towards
him and before he could regain his
feet, had passed over his arm. 1t be-
ing very dark the engineer did not
see the injured man.-The Dalles
Chronicle.

F1ontlng Typhoid Hospital.

The fact that floating hospital

the startling news given out by the
Press last evening says the Occur

of the certainty that the river and

One Apple Tree Yields se4.4O

The big Blue Pearmain apple tree
on ]. B. Stoddards fruit farm was
relieved of its burden yesterday and
yielded its owner 46 boxes Of prime
apples which will bring the neat sum
of $1.40 a box, or $64.40, says the
La Grande Morning star. This is
not bad for one tree and Mr.. Stoddard
has many, while not quite so large,
that are equally as heavily laden.
It took Morace Wallmer, perhaps the
most expert apple picker in the val
ley, just four hours to do the job.
This tree is 35 years old and has been
steady producer. 1t is without 4
doubt the largest tree in the valley
and thequantity and quality of the
yield goes to prove that, contrary to
the habits of apple trees in most cli-
mates, here age neither affects the
bearing nor the excellency of the
fruit. Who would not own an apple
orchard in the Grande Ronde? We
certainly lead the world.

WILL LIVE ON CLAIMS.
Locators on Timber Land VIII Take
No Chances.

Homesteaders who were lucky
enough to find a timber tract upon
which to make their homes, have
about made up their minds to stay
right there until the full term of five
years has passed so that their titles
will pass undisputed, says the Prime
vile Review. We refer, of course, TO
the area just thrown open and to be
filed upon the 2Sth of this month.
That vast area, already checker
boarded by previous timber entries,
Is now dotted with tents of home>
seeking heads of families wherever a
quarter section with a little timber
on it has been discovered. Occasion
ally will be found two or more squat
ters on the same forty each of whom
is cheerful and good naturedly conf
dent that his is the prior right, so
that the local land office promises to
be the scene of many sale of a
homestead right to the highest bidder
in the first half of November.
In one instance we hear of two
prospective settlers on one claim and
one of whom has built himself a
cabin, are good naturedly bantering
one another to sell interests, without
much success.
The cabin owner offered the other
$500 to move on and locate elsewhere.
The man declined and retorted by Of
fering the cabin owner $500 to move
his shack over the line, and this ten
der was also declined with thanks, so
that the matter is deadlocked.
Considering that cruisers are charg-
ing $3.50 for locating homesteader
on timbered tract, $500 is not such
an inducement these days.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-10-14
From 500 to $500 Per Acre.

John Kelly sold six acres of his
Mob Hill farm to w. M. Nelson yes
terday for $4,000, says the Yakima
Republic. The tract is in bearing or
chard. The price received is said by
those familiar with the tract to be
excellent.
About five years ago Mr.. Kelly pur-
chased the tract from which he sold
this six acres at 500 an acre. The
jump to $500 an acre In that lapse
of time is phenomenal.
