KEEP THE KIDNEYS WELL.

Many Hood River people take
tEeir lives in their hands by neglect

responsible for vast amount OF
suffering and i'll health, but there is
10 need TO suffer nor to remain in
danger when all diseases aud aches
and pains due to weak kidneys can
be quickly and permanently cured
by the use of Doan's Kidney Pills.
}. c. Buckler, uf f. Ninth st, Port

there Is no remedy equal to Doan's
Kidney Pills. There WIS constant
soreness across the small of my back

Likes Williamson Plan.

A majority of farmers, so far as
our information extends, who have
tried the Williamson plan of grow
ing corn are greatly pleased with
the results obtained. While in con-
versation with Mr.. M. DeLoach a
few days ago, he told the writer of
his success with Williamson corn
last year. The only mistake he made
was in not using very heavy ap-
plication of fertilizers. This lie fully
realizes and will use a greater guam
tity per acre during the present
year. Being man of good judg-
ment and one of the most success
full farmers in the county, Mr.. De-
Loach's approval of5Athe William
son plan is very strong endorse
ment of this new method Of culti-
waiting corn.

Cold Not Yet Over.

nights almost over head, and that
there is danger of severe cold until
they set with the sun. Without
considering the signs farmers are
pressing forward with their work,
and they are right.
