the warts disappear when the hog is

the wart hog will ever remain an

VALLEY
FRUIT
is FINE
Renaissance Of the Famous Oregon
Red Apple Is In Sight

The grocerymen and consumers OF
apples in Salem are expressing their
satisfaction on the state of the fruit
Industry In the Willamette valley.
The condition of the Gravensteins
which are now coming into town in
large quantities may safely be taken
as an indication OF the quality of
the entire crop. and these certainly
Indicate a decided Improvement In
the care OF trees and packing the
crop on the part OF the fruit grow
ers. Indeed, one local grocery man
expressed the opinion that the fruit
was in better condition by 200 per
cent than ever before, and nearly all
agree that the Improvement is mark
led In nearly all fruit.
THE chief cause of this Is better
spraying. This has been seriously
neglected In the Willamette valley
and although Il Is the best fruit rails
ing country In the state, the apples
OF Hood River and Rogue River val
ley have outstrlpped them in reputa-
tion. This, In the opinion OF G. w.
Armstrong, state fruit inspector, is
entirely due to the superior care exer
clsed by the farmers of those locall-
ties, and that facilities in the VIII
lamette were equal, II not better In
every way. However the farmers In
tlds locality have Just recently woke
cup In this respect. and have sprayed
this spring as never before. Instead
OF the careless and lndlscrlminate
spraying which they have practlced
heretofore, they are going at it in n
scientific manner and results OF this
is already apparent. The obsolete
paris green" has been abolished In
nearly all localities and the farmers
are using soluable arsenates of lead. |

What You Want

Usually, when man pays out his money for
anything, he gets what he wants, or there's
good, strong kick for the man who sold him
disappointment.
Why isn't this true of cigar purchases
Why has the public been SO long-suffering
with cigar manufacturers? Why will man pay
out his good money for poor cigars?
It's hard to say But it's easy enough to see
how great many manufacturers take advant-
age of this careless buying, and unload inferior
cigars on unsuspecting purchasers. This finn
flaming game can't last forever.
Smokers every day are waking up more and
more to the fact that
Cigars are nOU made better

Smokers can tell good cigars when they
smoke them-and they are fast finding out that
cigars in boxes stamped with the triangle Az
are invariably of better quality than cigars
which are not guaranteed in this way
The "Triangle A" on cigar box is sign of
honest cigar values-and that's just exactly what
the American smoking public has wanted for
many day.

Trivial Circumstance Forgotten by
Sweet Summer Girl.

met charming young girl, also en-
joying a stroll.
Il was just wishing l might meet

with the air of one having at least
claim of friendship on her.
The girl lifted her eyebrows and re-
garded him with a surprised look in
which there was not the slightest hint
of recognition.
The man looked little more than
surprised. In fact he looked and was
shocked.

GIRL RIDES WITH DEAD LOVER.
Discovers Corpse, Gets in Buggy with
Body and Drives AimIessIy.

Detroit, Mich.-Crazed at finding
her fiance, George OFT, sitting dead
in his buggy, quarter of mile from
the depot where he was to have met
her, Miss Rose Hogan was found driv.
ing aimlessly in the buggy beside the
corpse a short distance from the OFT
home at Indian Town. She is threat
ened with a complete nervous col
lapse.
Miss Hogan had gone to visit her
sweetheart's parents. OFT had written
with a carriage and drive her to his
parents home-several miles out.
When she alighted at the station there
was no carriage in sight, and, after
waiting few minutes, the girl started
to walk in the direction of the OFT
farm, hoping to meet him on the way.
Some distance down the road she
found the carriage motionless, the
horse quietly standing and the young
man sitting back in the seat with the
lines in his hands. She called to him
and receiving no answer came close
to the buggy. Then she discovered
that he was dead and that blood had
streamed down his face from a bullet
wound in his head.
The girl climbed into the buggy be-
side the dead man, took the lines and
started to drive to the OFT home with
the lifeless form. On the way the
situation temporarily unbalanced her
mind and when found by a farmer
near her journeys end che was nearly
cut of her mind.

very essential to the making of any

SOME CORN RECIPES
FOR THOSE WHO ARE FOND OF
DELICIOUS VEGETABLE.
Boiled in Milk Is One Excellent Way
of Preparing It-ln the Form
of an Omelet-Served
as Pudding.

A nice way to cook tender corn is in
| milk. In this case husk the corn and
drop into the boiling milk. Cook just
five minutes from the time it begins
to boil. Keep covered closely while
cooking and serve as soon as done.
Where there is large family to be
provided with corn, it is wiser to cook
the corn in relays.
Indian Corn Pudding.-Select firm,
fresh ears Of corn, medium size, and
with a keen-bladed knife score each
row of kernels, then scrape out the
pulp, leaving the hulls on the cob. To
the pulp taken from dozen ears allow
pint and half rich milk, four beat
en- eggs, a teaspoonful salt, half tea
spoonful pepper, and if the corn lacks
sweetness two or three tablespoonful
sugar. Bake in a well-buttered deep
earthen dish for two hours, in a slow,
steady oven.
Corn Fritters.-Cut the kernels from
four good-sized ears young corn. Add
two beaten eggs, half a teaspoonful
salt, a saltspoonful pepper, cup OF
-four pressed down and heaped little,
and a cup of cold milk. Have ready
hot frying pan well creased and drop
in the batter by spoonfuls. There
should be enough for dozens. Do
not let the fritters touch. Cook in re-
lays, frying on one side four minutes,
then turn and fry the other. These
are delicious as an accompaniment for
chicken or to serve for breakfast.
Green Corn OmeIet.-Score the rows
of four large ears of corn and scrape
out the pulp. Mix with five well-beat-
one tablespoonful cream, half a tea
spoonful salt and pepper to season.
Heat frying pan, drop in a table
spoonful butter and grease every por-
ton of the sides and bottom. Pour in
the omelet and tilt the pan, sliding a
thin-bladed knife under the omelet to
prevent its sticking. When nearly
cooked On top the stove, set in the
oven to finish. Then fold over and
turn on to a hot platter.
Broiled Sweet Corn.-Boil the ears
of corn two minutes, then drain and
dry on towel. Place on broiler and
toast over glowing Goals or under the
gas flame until good brown. Season
with salt and send to the table in a
napkin.
Baked Corn.-Take off the coarse
outer husks from young corn, turn
back the inner and remove the silk
Bring the inner husks back over the
end, tie in place and lay in the oven.
Bake about 20 minutes.

Jim Hcxie Finds TWO Kittens and Is
About to Take Them Home to
Wife When Animals Start
Fight.

| Panther Knob, w. Va.-Jim Hoxie,
the state, was on his way home from
| Dixon's Crossroads a few days ago
| following the farther side of Panther
mountain. When he arrived at the
crossing of Peach run, a small creek
which meanders down the mountain
about three miles from his home, he
noticed two little bobtailed kittens
playing in a grassy opening on the
bank. Jim decided to catch them and
take them home to his wife.
One he quickly caught and chucked
into his saddle bags, but not before
the kitten had bitten and scratched
his hands severely. The other was
not so easily captured, but it was cor
nered at last and put away to keep
company with the first. BY this time
Jim's hands were scratched so badly
that he had to tie them up; it was get
ting late, too. for the sun was going
down before Jim had remounted and

He had hardly started before he

The short hesitation of the cata-

have long to wait

AN IMPORTANT DECISION
United States Court Of Appeal sus.
tains Great Northern Decision.
Several other Rebate Prosecutions
Depended Upon Same Point Not
ably the Standard Oil Fine.

Denver, Colin an opinion an
nounced Monday by the United States
circuit court of appeals sitting in Den
yer the judgment of the district court
for Minnesota against the Great
Northern railroad in the rebate cases
was practically affirmed. The circuit
court holds that the Hepburn act is
an amendatory act and not repeal
ing act, that insofar as it repeats or
reproduces portions of the Elkins art
1t continues them in force and makes
no break in the law, and that insofar
as it omits or changes provisions of
the Elkins act 1t repeats them.
The act of granting rebates was adj
mitted by the Great Northern Rail-
road company at the trial and the
only question presented by >the de-
PENDANT was whether or not the Ell
kins act of 1903, making it an offense
and fixing punishment for granting
rebates was repealed by the Hepburn
act of 1906 in such a way that there
after there could be no prosecution
of offenses committed prior to the ap-
peal. The district court ruled against
this contention of the railway COM
pany and hence the appeal to the cir
cult court of appeals.
The maximum fine in this case is
100000 for each offense, and there are
over a dozen cases of great import
ance awaiting the result of the de-
cision handed down Monday not
ably four cases in Kansas City where
the Armour, Cudahy, Swift and Nor
ris Packing company were each fn-t
$4,000 for accepting rebates
"The validity of the Standard Oil
company fine of s29,OOO,O0O depends in
a large measure on the decision for
it will have an almost controlling in
fuence in the decision of the court
of appeals in the Chicago district,
where the Standard Oil company ap-
peals on exactly similar grounds. If
the decision had been otherwise, it
would have stopped all prosecutions
in the eighth district for rebates, and
concessions.
