Bowels
Open; Free

There is no function of the human
body so important as keeping the
bowels open. Upon the condition of
the bowels, more than upon any other
one thing, depends the health and
wcll-bcing OF the entire system. There
is scarcely sickness that has not got
constipation and stomach trouble
complicated with it. 1t is at the bot
tom OF most of the serious diseases
of life.
Every grown up human being ought to
have at least one fun and easy cvacua-
ton OF the bowels every "a hours.

ONIONS GROW WELL
MARKET IS GOOD

The question is often asked, why
the farmers and gardeners around
GrantsPass do not raise more onions.
Those raised are of the finest quail
ity and the yield is equal to that of
the Bermuda Islands and Laredo,
Texas. Though conditions here are
ideal for raising onions on a large
csale, so few are raised that large
shipments are brought in every fall
and throughout the winter and
spring from Texas, and sell at prices
that would net home growers hand
some profit.
In this connection a recent num-
ber of Frank Leslie's Weekly says
that Texas gives us practical lesson
in the benefits of protection, and,
strangely enough, the facts are
brought out by that high priest of
free trade, the New York Evening
Post, our able contemporary reports
that the onion growers of Bermuda
are very much moved because the
nigh tariff on Bermuda onions i'm
posed by the United States is driving
them out Of our markets and leaving
clear field for the onion growers of
South Texas.
In an article on the Bermuda
onion industry in Texas, the Techni-
cal World says that in eight years
the value of the annual product of
onions in Texas has grown from
nothing to more than $4,000, 200
and as result, land that was
thought to be worthless and only fit
for goat grazing, now brings an an
nual net return of $500 to $500 per
acre from the onions 1t produces.
This land has risen In valuation
from 81 or 50 to not less than $1,000
and many onion growers would not
accept less than $4,000 per acre, as at
that price the annual net return av-
erages 25 per cent on the investment.
1t is safe to say that when the tar
iff revisionists get to work this win
ter the onion growers of Texas will
be on hand to enter their vigorous
protest against the reduction of the
duty on Bermuda onions, and that
the Bermuda onion growers will have
heir representatives on hand to fight
for free trade In the industry.

CR0SSLEY COULD SEE
GREAT IMPROVEMENT

VIM. Crossley of the English firm
of fruit commission men, was In the
city Wednesday. and visited the
packing room of the Rogue River
Fruit Exchange. He remarked that
the work of packing now being done
was great imrovement over that of
earlier in the season when he was
here. Mr.. Crossley has been watch
ing the fruit indstry of this part
OF the Rogue River Valley and says
there is no reason on earth why we
should not be able to have the finest
apples grown as we have both the
climate and soil; II the trees are
properly cared for and the pack
perfectly made, our apples can not
be surpassed.
The car Of apples which took the
$1,000 prize at the National Apple
Show at Spokane, was consigned to
the Crossley firm.

REGARDING THE GAME
OF BASKET BALL
The Most Fascinating Sport of the
Age. Clean, Fast, and
Interesting

The two games played with Rose
burg High School recently developed
the fact that very few of the people
of this city know much about the
points of the game and what goes to
constitute a good game. Owing to
the fact that basket ball is played in
the evening, it should make it very
popular as everyone is relieved of
their days work and wish for some
thing to drive the cares of business
away. The few people that saw the
games played were extremely inter-
ested and although they were the
first real games of the season and the
teams are not at their best, 1t could
be seen that there will be a rafting
good team turned out here II the
public will support it. II ali the old
fans" and the new enthusiasts
would turn out. the team would be
a success and furnish good, interest
ing sport during the winter.
The game. when 1t is properly
played, is the cleanest, fastest and
most interesting of all sports, calling
as 1t does. for cool head and quick
decision. 1t is void of all roughness
which places it in a class of its own.
The team consists Of one center,
two guards and two forwards. The
center is the pivot, or as his position
indictes, the center of the whole
team. The forwards are dependent
upon him for the most of the basket
work, while the guards protect the
basket by keeping the forwards
from throwing the basket.
The officials of the game, are, one
referee, one umpire. one or more
time-keepers, and one or more score
keepers. The referee has charge Of
the ball and is the high Official. The
umpire calls all fouls that come un-
der his supervision and his decision
is not to be questioned by the
referee.
Fowls are called for the follow
ing: Delaying the game, tackling
ball, kicking ball, hugging ball,
tackling, holding or pushing oppo-
nent, addressing officials, striking,
kicking, shouldering, tripping or
backing opponent and for all un-
necessary roughness and use Of pro-
fame language.
The home team is responsible for
the conduct Of the spectators at all
times and fowl may be called by
the referee on the home team for
any misconduct of the same.
The Nuggets expect to play a
number OF games yet this season, the
next engagement being with the
Roseburg Athletic Club. This team
is very strong. having defeated the
crack Ashland Club last year four
straight games. There are several
games scheduled with Ashland later
on and negotiations are going on
for a series of games with the Los
Angeles Athletic Club which is tour
ing the coast.
The management will make ar
rengements to have the hall heated
and made more comfortable for
spectators before the next game. II
is to be hoped the public will not
let such a popular amusement az
this fall through.

A years experience in the use OF gas
tar produced at the municipal plant in
Holyoke, Mass, has increased the con-
fdence Of the members OF the board
of public works In the value OF that
material In the construction Of macad-
am roads. The tar from the city gas
plant costs only 2 cents a gallon as
compared with cents or more for the
ordinary commercial article. Although
not carefully refined and brought to a
uniform standard, the material has
given good results at a remarkably
low cost. As laid in Holyoke a new
macadam road can be laid with two
pourtnxs Of tar on the surface coats
for 80 cents a square yard This year
tho tar macadam will be used on more
hea Willy Travelled streets than those laid
last year. To get the best results eI-
perience has taught that the broken
stone screenings should be free from
all dust and as clean as II washed. n
