votes in the recent Democratic prima-
ries over in the Fourth Congressional
District, says that he will go into the
second primary with Sisson since Hill

President of the United States are in
creasing as the days and weeks null

diminished by the free use of money
from the Republican corruption fund

pie will triumph at the polls. Let
every Democrat everywhere do his

USEFUL MICROSCOPE. |

1 One does not need to visit a labor
atory to be in the presence of germs,
however, as most Of us know. Besides
having a polyglot human population
New York has an equally diverse germ
colony. According to bacteriologist
culture plate exposed to the metropoii-
tan atmosphere would soon hold al
most every germ common to this part
of the world When food is exposed
for sale in the open air, as it is upon
the East Side, the collection is COM
plete after few hours. If you buy
figs, for instance, from a pushcart or
street stand, the all-germ combination
is what you get. Placed Immediately
under miscrseope, however, few of
the germs could be detected But If
allowed to soak the required length of
time in sterile culture medium an
ensuing period in the laboratory in
cubator would develop the concealed
population-a dozen kinds of death
dealing bacilli
Uncleanly streets breed all manner
of germs, and the air of crowded, poor
ly ventilated cars is supercharged. The
straphanger grasps in his palm or
stands upon countless millions. In
short, germs are omnipresent, thickest
where civilization is most dense. and
that we are alive at all is due to the
fact that under ordinary circumstances
these bacilli may be breather and
eaten with comparatively little risk.
The white corpuscles and healthy tbs,
sues of the body counteract the effect
of disease germs. The microscope re-
veals a warfare between the blood cor
puscles when disease germs enter
through an abrasion of the skin which
is similar to that occurring when they
enter in other ways. A pin prick is
the signal for the battle sometimes
The germs attempt to enter the blood
The nearest white corruscle seizes the
nearest germ, and the two fight to the
death The germ usually wins, but the
victory is short lived, since millions
of other corpuscles take up the fray,
and reinforcements arrive until the
danger is over and the scratch closed.
1t is only when the bodily forces are
depleted or when virulent germs find
access in overwhelming numbers that
disease results. 1t is then that the mi
croscope is requisitioned to pass judg-
ment as to what manner of germ it is,
when it is definitely known what man
ner of treatment to adopt.-New York
Tribune. If&l

FRUIT LAND PROFITS.
Why Not Emigrate from other Sec

tons to oregon.
If you go to any of the large cities,
New York, for instance, and under
take to buy a piece of income proper
ty, fiathouse we will say, you will find
the price based solely upon the earn
ing powers of the property, and in good
neigbborhoods this price is often fixed
at an income rate, net, Of about three
percent, and seldom as much as per-
cent. In other words, good fiat, in
a good neighborhood, which brings in
$4,000 per year over and above taxes,
insurance and other fixed charges,
and very small allowance for repairs
will bring close to 100000, and in
some instances a shade above that
amount.
The life of the building cannot be
estimated at more than thirty years,
when it will have to be renewed, but
the buyer will figure the increase in
the value of the lot will be enough
to rebuild at that time.
If a building netting $4,000 per year
is worth 100000 then why is not an
apple orchard which nets $4,000 worth
somewhere near as much as Che build
ing and lot? Surely the apple crop is
as sure as the renters of ths fiat;
there is less liability of loss in the or
chard than in the fat from fire, the
prices of apples are stable as the emit
rates, and the life Of an apple orchard
is longer than the life Of fiat.
AS a matter of fact the income from
the orchard is more stable and certain
than the income from the fiat, and
this is especially true in times of fl
nancial stress.
A Medford man this year harvested
from an eight-acre apple orchard 5000
boxes of Newtown pippins, which he
sold for trife over $4,000, and yet
he is laughed at for asking $4,000 for
the eight acres, which netted him for
the year over $4,000. According to
the estimates above that orchard will
produce as much income and as sta
BILE an income, as piece of city prop
erty valued at 100000. In other
words, the Medford man gets as much
income from an investment Of $4,000
as the New York man gets from an
investment of 100000.
Now, we do not say that the Medford
orchard is worth anything like the
latter sum; but we do say it is far
better investment at the price asked
for it than the fat would be at five
times the sum- We think any man
will agree with us in that statement,
and also agree with us in the further
statement that the prices of Oregon
fruit lands and orchards are far lower
than they ought to be, and that we may
look for sharp advance all along the
line.
. Which means that now is the time
for good investments in good orchards
and good lands suitable for orchards.
