THE BEST FAIR YET.

Before the East Oregonian will
have been issued again next Monday
evening, the gates of the Third East
rrn Oregon District fair will have
been thrown open and the event will
be IN full glory.
The East Oregonian wishes to
congratulate the fair management ana
the people of Umatilla and Morrow
counties in advance on the fine fair
that is promised at this time.
Everything is practically ready to-
night for the fair opening. This is a
triumph in fair management that is
rare indeed. Usually the arrange
ments are not complete until the end
Of the second or third day of the
fair. No so here The fair is ready
for business. The booths are prac-
tically all filled and decorated and
when the gates swing open Monday
morning they will exhibit a full grown
fair, complete in every detail, with
pavilion filled with exhibits, with
every feature in working order and
with every facility for caring for the
people and their products.

age for the state now IL ~. as com
pared with "A one month ago and SO
one year ago.
The present condition Is based up
on the prospect for normal weather
until the middle of October. The av-
erage date for killing frost is octo-
Der IA, and that will give about time
for the late corn to mature. II is
possible, however, that small per-
centage of the acreage planted the
first week In July will require lit
tie longer time.
A factor which should be taken in
to consideration in the corn crop is
the greatly reduced acreage, which,
on account of the overflow and excess
sive rains in the spring, Is estimated
at about 10 per cent below what It
was last year.
1t is estimated that II per cent
OF the entire crop will be fully ma
tured by September 20, the remain
der of the crop requiring three to
four weeks more.

be highly cultivated and made to
produce enormous yields. Prices of
the high class stuff produced on
these tracts will justify $5OO--to even
S10OO-per-acre land. The crops on
this land will actually pay interest
on these prices The land will carry
these extremely high valuations.
II one crop fails to pay well an
other or a dozen others, can be rails
ed to take its place. II the market is
glutted with one kind of irrigated
crop, others may take their place, and
so irrigated land is safe and certain
investment in a country with anything
like a favorable climate
But it requires IL months work
every year to make the most out Of
an irrigated crop,

THE DREAM MONTH

Nature has done much for Umatil-
la county. Not alone has she en-
dowed the soil with fertility and
strength; not alone has she added to
the material wealth OF mankind by
giving the long seasons. the mild cli-
mate and the favorable conditions
for industries of all kinds but also
she has endowed Umatilla county
with beauty in a million forms.
No prettier sunsets, no more beau
tlful mornings, no more exhierating
nights are to be found or enjoyed
anywhere in the world than in Una
tilla county, and October. the culmi-
nation of autumn exhibits these
beauties viyidly.
October is called the dream month
of the year. The promise of seed
time and harvest has been fulfilled,
the fruits of field. garden and forest
gathered and garnered, and the hus-
bandman feels that nature has repaid
him for the long. hard months of toll
that lie behind
Then come the still days, the gol-
den sunshine, the hazy, -tlnged
atmosphere, the balmy airs scented
with the pungent fragrance Of rlpen-
ed fruits and foliage.
Falling leaves strew the pathways
and choke the streams, while tree and
shrub and vine are clothed with bril-
liancy Of coloring no painters brush
can rival. The gorgeousness and
glory of the sunsets and sunrises are
wonderful and neither brush, pen nor
word can imprison their subtleties of
tint and shade

EDUCATION OUT OF SCHOOL.

The tendency of the educational
spirit of the age is to broaden the
scope Of school work, to give stu
dents as much education out of the
regular course Of study as within it,
and the East Oregonian delights to
see this high ideal Of education guild
ing the course of Pendleton high
school.
The course of study prescribed by
the state is but a small part Of the
educational equipment Of the public
school Students get their really best
and perhaps most useful education
not in the class room, necessarily nu,
in the application of their studies out
Of the class room.
In debating, commercial training,
music, athletics, oratorical events,
school papers, and other auxiliary
features of high school work. the
student gets that part of his educa-
ton which fits him for the actual
work Of life He gets the theory in
the class room but he learns the prac-
tical application of his theories, he
demonstrates his learning in his con-
tact with the world in his discussion
of practical questions, in his conduct
of the actual business features Of
these high school adjuncts.
So for this reason the high school
publication, the high school band the
high school debating society, the
high school oratorical contest, the
high school business course and all
Of these practical features give to the
ambitious and energetic young men
and women an education that is not
to be acquired in the class room, and
yet which is absolutely necessary in
the making of genuine men and wo-
men, in the formation Of genuine
characters and in the upbuilding Of
splendid citizenship, which is a part
of the work Of the public school.

DEADLY BATH FOR THE PESTS

Frequent complaints are being
made by owners of fine shade and
fruit trees over damages done the
trees by the red spider which is
working in many parts Of the city to
the detriment Of shade and fruit
trees. In some places the leaves have
been so thoroughly sucked by the
pests that the foliage is dying and
leavink the trees bare when they
should be fully protected.
In speaking Of the damages done
and probable remedies for the same
c. l.. Whitney, fruit inspector for the
county said last night that a spray
Of Kerosene or black leaf dip will kill
the little sap suckers and prevent any
further damage. He also stated that
if the tres were not doctored until in
the winter and then sprayed with the
Rex spray the insects will be effectu-
ally destroyed.

appeal to the Well-Informed in every
walk of life and are essential to per
nanent success and creditable stand
ing. Accordingly, it is not claimed
that Syrup of Figs and Elixir OF
SeEna is the only remedy of known
value, but one Of many reasons why
it is the best Of personal and family
laxatives is the fact that it cleanses,
sweetens and relieves the internal
organs on which it acts without any
debilitating after effects and without
having to increase the quantity from
time to time.
It acts pleasantly and naturally anC
truly as laxative, and its component
parts are known to and approved by
physicians, as it is free from all
Objectionable substances. To get It's
beneficial effects always purchase the

HE NEVER BLAMED THE BOOZE,

He took a bottle up to bed,
Drank whiskey hot all night;
Drank cocktails in the morning.
But never could get tight.
He Shivered in the evening,
And always had the blues,
Until he took bowl or two
But he never blamed the Booze.
His joints were full Of rheumatism,
His appetite was slack;
He had pains between his shoulders,
Chills ran down his back.
He suffered with insomnia.
At night he couldn't snooze,
He said it was the climate
But he never blamed the Booze.
His constitution was run down,
At least. that's what he said
His legs were swelled each morning,
And he often had swelled head.
He tackled beer, wine, whiskey,
And if they didn't fuse
lie blamed it to dyspepsia
But he never blamed the Booze.
He said he couldn't sleep at night,
And always had bad dreams;
And If he laid awake all night,
Till early sunlight beams,
He thought it was malaria,
Alas! twas but a ruse:
He blamed 1t onto everything
But he never blamed the Booze.
His liver needed scraping.
And his kidneys had the gout;
H, swallowed lots of bitters
TIL at last he cleaned them out
His legs were swelled with dropsy
Till he had to cut n'r shoes,
He blamed 1t to the doctor
But he never blamed the Booze.
His clothes We're getting seedy,
His nose was getting red,
His children always hu. ~.
Himself not too we'll fed.
His family he neglected,
His wife he did abuse;
He blamed all her relations
But he never blamed the Booze.
Then he had the tremens,
And he tackled rats and snakes;
First ne had the fever
Then he had the shakes;
Al last he had a funeral
And the mourners had the blues;
And the ephaph carved for him was;
He never blamed the Booze"

There are a great many phases OF

sistance Of the surgeon.
But by far the greatest number of
such cases are amenabIe TO correct

A vast multitude of women have been
relieved from the ailments peculiar to
their sex through the use Of Peruna as
prescribed by DR.. Hartman.
He receives many letters from all parts
of the country relating to subjects OF
vital interest to womankind.
OF the vast multitude Of women DR..
Hartman treats annually, only a small
per cent. of them consider it necessary
10 write to the Doctor at all.
While 1t is not affirmed that Peruna
will relieve every case of this kind, 1t Is
certainly the part of wisdom for eVery
woman so afflicted to give Peruns q
fair trial.

MISSOURI CORN IS POOR.

The weather during August was
somewhat more favorable for corn,
taking the state as a whole, than dur
ing the previous month, according to
the report Of George 3. Ellis, secre-
tary Of the Missouri state board OF
agriculture, issued Saturday, says a
Kansas City report The rains have
been local and there has been no
general rain during the month, but
in most neighbOrhoOds moisture has
been sufficient to keep up normal

Mrs. Joseph Lacelle, 124 Bronson st.,

"I suffered with backache and head
ache for over nine months and nothing
relieved me until took Peruna. This
medicine is by far better than any other
medicine for these troubles. A few bot
ties relieved me OF my miserable, half
dead, half-alive condition.

Mrs. NJ. Kliner, e8is F.. 36th St., S. f.,

"I am enjoying good health since TAX
ing your medicine. I had suffered for
good many years previous to taking
Peruna, and ever since can say that !

Is. can most assuredly say that any
body afflicted with catarrh in any form
can be cured b taking Peruna."

LAS BODAS

Hay tres grandes clases de
bodas. Las bodas aristocraticas,
las bodas de la clase media y las
bodas de las clase infima.
Estas tres grandes clases Sc
subdividen luego en- infinite
n1mero de classes, de las cuales
dan norma la calidad 6 pelaje
de los padrinos mucho mas que
la de los propios contrayentes.
Por la organization que las
|costumbres han dado a esta
clase de acontecimientos en- la
vida del hombre y de la mujer,
hay que reconocer que las bo-
das, en- sus tres classes, son la
cosa mas molesta que hay en- Ell
gran juego de la civilization.
Ell mat1imonio es ell sacra-
mento de nuestra Santa Madre
lglesia que requiere mas reco-
gimiento y mas quietud, y sin
embargo es Ell mas Sc anuncia
con el bullicio y la algazara.
En- las bodas aristocraticas,
como es natural, las diversiones
tienen una organization mas
meditada, y la educacion de las
parties principales, parientes 6
inv1tados. forman un conjunto
mesurado que hacen algo tole-
rable la fiesta del dia.
En- la clase media va son de-
sapacibles { inquietantes los
agasajos y las diversiones con
que sc celebra la union de seres
que Sc aman.
En- las classes populares DO
hay manera de sWfrir estas di-

como contrayente, nj como pa

SECRETARY WILSON CHEERFUL
Head Of Agricultural Department on
Business and Political Condi-
lions in the West,

James Wilson. secretary Of agricul-
ture, who has just returned to Wash
ington from visit of two months in
the West, brings cheering prosperity
bulletin. He declares that the West
doesn't know much about the alleged
business troubles. Its farmers have
magnificent crops growing, and are SELL
ing the old crops and are preparing
to sell the new ones for high prices.
Weather and crop conditions this sea-
son have been excellent, and the new
crops, the secretary believes, will have
most buoyant effect on financial and
commercial conditions all over the
country. He confidently looks for
continuation of the improvement In
business which has been apparent every
where for the last few months, and
for its forward movement at an ac-
CELEBRATED speed.
Generally speaking" said the secre-
tary, "the information of our depart
ment shows that in recent years there
has been considerable increase in the
productiveness of the soil. We have
Investigated this carefully, and there Is
no doubt that the acre yield Of crops is
showing most significant increase.
We attribute 1t to better farming meth
DDS. to assimilation of the scientific in
formation about crop rotation, caring
for the soil, etc, which the department
and the agricultural colleges have
placed at the command Of the farmers,
and to general effort at intelligent
preservation of the elements which en-
able the soil to do its best work"
Speaking of political conditions, Sec
rotary Wilson said that the drift in the
West Is all for Taft, and he expressed
a strong conviction, based on his IN
quiries in number of states, that Mr.
Taft will carry all the states that
President Roosevelt carried four years
ago, SO far as the West Is concerned.
The feeling that Republican rule will
bring back general prosperity and as
sure its continuance is a powerful in
fiuence with the voters. Later In the
campaign the secretary will 60 on
speaking tour for the Republican ticket,
especially in New England.

You ask me what / think OF pro-
vision that no restraining order or In
junction shall issue except after notice

This was the rule under the Federal
statutes for many years, but wns subse-
quently abolished. In the class Of cases
to which you refer l do not see any
objection to the re-enactment Of that
Federal statute. Indeed, have taken
occasion to say In public speeches that
the power to issue Injunction ex parte
has given rise to certain abuses and
injustice to the laborers In a peaceable
