That Albany will have milk k-condens-
ing plant in active operation in this city
by September 1st seems assured. Local
business men and farmers have interest
ed themselves in the proposition to erect
a condensary, and at a meeting held here
Saturday afternoon, attended by over 80
farmers and local residents, SIS, 800 was
pledged toward the project. Enough
money additional is in sight to complete
the capital stock of the proposed COM
pany, amounting to $4,000. A temporary
organization was. effected at Saturdays
meeting, and committee consisting of
F. ]. Miller, A. G. Schmidt and j. A.
Howard, was appointed to prepare and
file articles of Incorporation. An attempt
to put in condensary in this city was
made last summer, but through misman
agement the project fell through, says an
Albany dispatch to the Telegram.

There are certain boys about Cor
Wallis who are likely to find them
selves in the tolls of the law, one of
these days, without warning. These
young lads are in the habit of tear
ing down all sorts of notices and
bills that are posted about town,
and if the bills are not taken down
they are defaced and mutilated.
Even the election notices which the
law requires to be posted at certain
places, have this week been seized
upon by the class of youngsters re-
ferred to and as this calls for
heavy fine, it is time the boys were
made aware of the gravity of their
offense. The law can make it
warm" for any persen who tears
down any sort of a notice, and those
who wish to avoid trouble had best
take these words of friendly warn
ing.

pressed with the thorough equip
ment and practical results accom-
plished in the various lines of work.
To conclude their round of pleasure
the delegates had the explicit pleas
ure of witnessing spectacular scene
on the campus of drill review of a
regiment of the college men in their
uniforms, led by their excellent
brass band. The delegates consider
themselves fortunate Indeed to have
had this opportunity of visiting
OaC and highly appreciate the hos
pitable treatment at the hands of
their friends and the college during
their short stay.-Oregon Weekly.

panied by the husband, two chill

lis an opportunity for a final look
at the deceased. Many beautiful
floral pieces were sent by numer-
Gus newspapers Of the state, Mr..
