CHINOOK A
WELCOME VISITOR
Snow all Gone and
Weather Warm.

With prominent display Of th
indicator on thermometers point
ing to 60 above, is a marked con
trsst with the weather of last weel
when the mercury was forced dowr
to - degrees below zero on sevora
occasions and foot of snow as an
mother reminder of winter.
1t was the heaviest snow fal
with the longest cold spell anC
coldest weather for years.
The warm chinook winds reached
here Thursday and the tempera.
ture climbed rapidly.
Friday afternoon Willow creek
WAS very high. The creek channel
was filled with muddy water and
floating ice.
Back OF Meadows livery stable
an ice jam formed and for awhile
the school house foot bridge vas in
danger, however, the jam gave way
and there was very little damage.
Coming from the south the warm
air currents moved slowly, and
consequently the snow went of
gradually.
During last week and for sew.
eral after the chinook appeared
many people were engaged in put.
ting up ice.
From private pond made fol
the purpose, GOWNS and Son put
up an immense quantity of ice.
Vic Groshens filed his ice hous,
and Harry Cummings has stored
large quantity.
1t was an easy matter to get ic:
after tie high water subsidized. The
ice was broken into big slabs BY
the force Of the water and LARGE
quantities were delivered along the
creek banks in town.
Everybody was tired of the co d
weather and the change is well
come.

Alien Sheep to be Taxed;

Following hearing given NUM-
Der of woolgrowers of MaIheQs
county, the commissioners have de-
cided to test the validity oE lae
statute enacted by the Oregon leg
i5lature two years ago providing
for tax Of 20 cents per head lpoa
sheep owned by non-residents ao&
brought into flee ranges IL thlt
state. at this time it is estimated
that there are upwards of % $50
sheep from IDAHO and Montana Ga
the government ranges in Mal4e0s
county, and District Attorney Nc
CullOch has been instructed to col,
lect in the tax Money paid 0a
this account would 60 to the county
school fund.
1t is believed that the alien sheeg
owners now in the county Will fetlt
the tax, as there IS considerable
doubt rs to the copstitutionality Of
the statute, and there is likely to
be some excitement on the ranges
when the county officers seize tie
sheep-which will be done if tha
tax is not paid promptly.
The measure was passed by the
legislature at the instance Of tbs
woolgrowers who, as residents of
the state, pay taxes and contribafe
to the commercial prosperity of tE,s
county. whereas the Idaho and
Montana sheepmen who winter 80
the Malheur ranges, take thcir
sheep away before the shearins
season, so that their wool is nec.
keted elsewhere.
The ranges are free, and sorse of
the stock men are advocating tlG
adoption by the government Of Tee
leasing system, which, it is claim ed
would result in the conservation of
the water and fodder end greatly
increase the grazing capacity OF tds
country.

what the Kidneys Do.
Co. Supt

Their unceasing work keeps US strong

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of impure matter daily, when unhealthy
some part of this impu matter is left
in the blood. This brings on many dis
eases and symptoms-pain in the back
headache, nervousness, hot, dry sKin,
rheumatism, gout, gravel, disorders of
the el esight and hearing. etc.
