CROP Is MOVING FASTER THIS
YEAR THAN EVER
BEFORE.

More than 1900 tons Of hay have
been shipped from Walla Walla this
month, which is more than the total
amount shipped from here last fall.
Hay has been a good crop this year
and while there has been more ship
ped out this year in one month than
was all last year, there is as much
more in sight if only cars could be
obtained to ship it.
The cause for this unusual activity
in hay this fall is not so much that
there is an unusually large crop as 1t
is that the prices offered for the crops
are SO large that the farmers have de-
cided to let go this fall and not wait
until spring for higher prices.
There is little or no hay left on the
coast and the demand is great for the
crop in the Inland Empire. Conse-
quently prices have taken a skyward
tendency which has loosened the far
mer's grip on feed.
About the best price paid for hay
last year. according to a local dealer.
was $3.50 per ton. Already this fall
the price has reached $11.50 and indi-
cations are that it's climbing tendency
is not a thing of the moment. Hay
will be a good price this year and
while the acreage is a trifie larger than
that of last year, yet there is not
enough in the country to supply the
demand and that hay will be a scarce
article here next spring is an assured
fact, as the farmers are turning loose
all they can at the good figure Of
fered now rather than risk a higher
price next spring.
1--WE could ship twice as much as we
are if only we could get cars said a
well known dealer today. But we
simply can't get cars. We have had
orders for cars in for weeks but We
can't get them. l have just placed an
order for % cars but l am not sure
will get them inside of two weeks.
The good price offered is the cause of
the unusual activity and We are ship
ping much more than ever before, al
though the acreage is but slightly
larger

city limits of Walla Walla and the
Sturm home is between two ard a
half and three miles. Asked as to the
truth and veracity of the plaintiff, the
witness said that it was not good in
the community in which he resided.
Counsel for the plaintiff brought out
the fact that there had been previous
trouble between plaintiff and witness
which arose over harness deal.
Frank Singleton, the next witness
said that he had resided in Walla
Walla for about AZ years, that he knew
the plaintiff, and that his reputation
for truth and veracity was not good
DR.. helms was again called to the
witness stand. and was again asked as
to certain sums of money paid him for
professional services rendered the de-
eased. He stated that the deceased
had paid him about $23 in all; the re-
mainder of the money being paid by
Minnie Russell.
Are you sure, doctor, that Mat
Sturm paid you only $23?' asked
counsel for the defense.

LECTURE At KEYlOR GRANQ
NOTED CHRISTIAN SCIENTIST
WILL RELATE HIS EX-
PERIENCES

At the Keylor Grand tomorrow after
noon at $3.50 o'clock, Rev. Arthur Vos-
burg will give a free lecture on why
l Became a Christian Scientist" Rev.
Vosburg is graduate of Auburn The
illogical seminary and was for years a
Presbyterian minister, but became a
believer in Christian Science from the
good he received from it's teachings.
His lecture is said to be a powerful
one and well worth the hearing.
Concerning Christian Science, Clar-
ence w. Chadwick has the following
to say in the Christian Science Senti-
mel:
A Religion Of Kindness.
christian Science is here to in
struct humanity, both by precept and
example, how to understand that God
is love, and that love is expressed only
through the law of kindness 1t de-
fines the nature of love and explains
in a thoroughly practical manner the
modus of it's operation.
The healing which results from an
underst anding of Christian Science, is
simply the operation of law, and the
student of Christian Science knows
positively that this law is the law of
kindness, and that love is it's princi-
pie. In common with all other Chris
tians he has abundant Scriptural evil
dence to encourage him in believing
that the great Master healed the sick
through the operation of this same
law, and when, through his under
standing of Christian Science, he ap
plies the rule of healing ard the evil
dence of disease disappears, he then
knows that the law of love is ever OPP
erative and available, and to him this
becomes the most important discovery
of his life.
IF for no other one thing, the
world owes Mrs. Eddy a deep sense
of gratitude for her practical and con-
vincing proof of this all important
proposition, that divine love Furnishes
nothing but sin. The understanding
of the law of kindness has made this
possible at the present hour, and al
ready the world is awakening from it's
terrible fear and dread of coming face
to face with God. II is learning to
master hatred, envy, malice, and many
other related thoughts that would OBJ
sciousness the coming of Christ. 1t is
