DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lin- ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumb- ling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflamma- ton can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cascs out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in famed condition of the mucous sur faces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by Catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure Send for circu- lars, free.

RICE CULTURE
 HAS BEEN DOUBLED
This Years Crop Will Reach 25,0OO.
 Many New Plantations Opened Up.

Figures compiled by the agricul tural department relative to the new agricultural industry show that the rice acreage has increased in Lonoke Prairie. Arkansas and Jefferson coun- ties more than 100 per cent Last year nearly 12.000 acres were plant ed in these four counties in 1902 which with the additional acreage in the western part of St. Francis and Lee counties, and Grand Prairie. in Poinsett county. of about l 300 acres will easily more than double the acreage for last year.
 Statistics show Arkansas to be the leading state in rice culture in re- gard to yield per acre. which was approximately 60 bushels per acre. There are now two rice mills in course of construction and several others are now being projected to take care of their seasons crop.

CONSERVATION NEEDED.

That President Roosevelt was right
in calling the attention of the coun-
try to the urgent need of conserving
the resources of the country has been
shown by the conservation commits
sion's report. The following extracts
from the same show some significant
things brought to light;
Our coal supply will approach de-
pletion before the middle of the next
century
High-grade iron ores cannot be ex-
pected to last beyond the middle of
the present century, nor will petrole-
um last longer.
The waste in the extraction and
treatment of mineral products in 1907
was equivalent to more than $780,
| 100000.
The average yield of wheat in the
United States is less than IA bushels
per acre, in Germany 2S bushels and
ir England 80 bushels.
The greatest unnecessary loss OF
our soil is preventable erosion. Sec
ond only to this is the waste, nom
use and misuse of fertilizers derived
from animals and men.
Our wild game and fur-bearing an
imals have been largely exterminated
With game birds the story is much
the same.
Not less than 5O,OOO,OOO acres Of
forest is burned over yearly.
One-fourth of the standing timber
is lost in logging. The boxing of lone
leaf pine for turpentine has destroyed
one-fifth of the forests worked. The
loss in the mill is from one-third tc
two-thirds of the timber sawed.
Of each 1000 feet which stood ir
the forest an average of only 800 feet
of lumber is used.
By reasonable thrift we can produce
a constant timber supply beyond oul
present needs and with It conserve
the usefulness of our streams for ir'
rigation, water supply, navigation
J and power.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1909-02-03

more closely settled and the town
must be build up from within by the
establishment Of new industries.
That the people appreciate the sit
uation and are ready 70 cooperate
in work for the towns advancement
has been shown by the manner in
which they backed the new woolen
mill company. Because of the hear
ty support given by the people it will
now be possible to rebuild the mill.
It doubtless will be rebuilt.
But there are many other PROPOSE
tions that need attention. Some are
matters of great importance to the
city: others are of lesser moment. But
all need consideration. In order to
handle these matters the city
must have an organization. The Com
mercial association fills the need. 1t
is the towns working brigade. Every
loyal resident should be upon the
list.
Last evening the association elect
ed a progressive man as president for
the coming year. Mr.. Moore is one
who is optimistic for the future Of
Pendleton. He is also willing and
anxious to work to further the ad-
of the city. He helped
much in raising the money for the
new wooden mill He is now anxious
to get the association rooms fitted out
properly and to get the association
upon the best possible working ba-
sis.
In a brief address last night the
president-elect asked for the earnest
cooperation of the people of the
town in making the association an
effective organization. If such sup
port is given and if the new officers
of the association make the most of
their opportunities during the COM
ing year Pendleton will profit there
by.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1909-02-03
NOW REBUILD IT.
sssssss..ssss.s =

OF the list Of subscribers for the
wooden mill bonds the East orego-
nian is proud. The list includes the
names Of most of the progressive peo-
ple of the city. Some of those upon
the list are wealthy; others are in
moderate circumstances. They gave,
in most instances at least, according
TO their means For what they have
done they are entitled to big credit.
The town that has people who are
willing to back an enterprise as To-
cal people have the wooden mill can
not fail to go ahead. It takes such
people to build towns. Where there
are such people there is bound to be
something doing if the town has any
possibilities whatever. That Pendle-
ton has good opportunities for growth
cannot be denied. 1t is now out to
make the most of the opportunities al
hand.
Now that the backing for the mil
has been secured there should be
nothing placed in the way of the inn
mediate rebuilding of the plant
There are some other problems to be
worked out. the most important be-
ing that concerning the rate on elec-
trical power. May this matter and
all others be satisfactorily adjusted
with speed.
The people of the city have sub
scribed literally to back Bishop
brothers in their enterprise. They did
so because it was represented that
the Bishops are woolen mill men OF
experience and ability. The people
have shown their faith in the Bishop
brothers and the Bishop family. II
IS now up to the Bishops to rebuild
the mill and by operating it success
fully show the people Of Pendleton
that they did not err when they pur-
chased the wooden mill bonds.
