THE FIGHT FOR CLEAN MILK

Politicians and reformers have fought either for or against the safe guarding of the public, health for years. In the last five years particularly has the fight against unclean dairies been waged fiercely. PaSteuriZed milk became a law
 throughout the land, because it was deemed unsafe to allow the, milk from cows"t that might be germ in tested go into the organs of hu man before first being put through a process that would destroy the dis ease breeding, death carrying germs
 In this fight to safeguard the pub lie health. and to demand a high quality of milk for canning purposes the Alpine Evaporated Cream com Dany has been leader. The maxi mum endeavors of the Pacific Coast Condensed Milk company were used with both the federal and state de- partments to allow them to pack low grade of milk. The authority for this statement is on file both in Washington. D. C., and at the state capitol in Sacramento, Cal There fore when at last the justice and lib erality of the Alpine company was noticed, and the true quality of their goods understood. the people of the Outside immediately started 10 use the better cream which is priced the same as the inferior brands of other dealers. Fairbanks ans can count themselves. fortunate that the Alpine brand is on the To- cal market. Bailey & Co. and Rob ert I.avery. the distributors for the Panama valley. have again proven that their belief that the people of
 his country want the best or noth- ing is correct. ..t.-

0H, YES! THEY
 HAD CHICKENS

In the cool gray dawn of tn" morning after. Pat O'Connor, Norman Koon, Herb Conway, Jess Myers, Tom Gillis. and another civil engineer started in the Courtemanche auto for the SiXteenmile roadhouse. They were going to get some feathered chickens. But 'tis sad to relate that the feathered fowl felt not the cold steel of the powerful hunters.
 They were three miles on the other side of the Nine Mile road house when it occurred. At first it just went Brrrrrrrr then it went Bmmmmmm and then it didn't go at all. With the heavy load it refused to budge. Persuasion failed. Ir was given a drink, coaxed, humored, petted and yet it wouldn't move Oh me, oh my! They got word to town. And do you know what some body said? Well, he said that the boys had too many chickens (but he ralled them "broilers") for the auto 10 carry without bucking.
 But after all, God is good. Some body persuaded Wakefield to get out his four-horse freight team and start for the scene of the disaster. He has started, and when he returns, loaded on the big truck, drawn by four powerful steeds, will be the party of civil engineers and their equipment As to the squabs-Oh, what's the use boys!

PORTLAND. Ore. Aug. 2S.-Obev- ing the commands of the officer in charge troop of soldiers today broke in the door of lodging house at No. 5031a Alder street and placed the landlady of the house and all it's inmates under arrest. The house was known to be disor. 'erly and refused to comply with the demands of the officers that it lose it's doors Some of the wo- men were taken very scantily clad to the station houses. which are be ing used by the state authorities while the city is under martial law. They refused to dress themselves when the place was raided One wo- man took off what little clothes she had on when the door was broken in by the authorities A blanket was wrapped around her nude body and she was taken to the jail in that raiment. There is no let up by the state militia in the running to ground of prostitutes and immoral houses of the town. Fifteen hun dred lewd women and their macques have left Portland since Monday. and every, day sees more and more forsaking the field that last week vas such rich one for them.
 PORTLAND, Ore, Sept. 1. The disorderly element of this city IS fast being wiped out, and many of those who lived here in the heart of the city are making for the road houses and the inns around the out skirts. The immortality and vice that flourished here so openly came into the business and resident .+ec- tions gradually, but their return to their former haunts in suburban Portland is being accelerated by tae fear of the officers of the state mil itia who are keeping a keen lookout on all places of doubtful reputation. The men in charge of the cleaning out stay that when they have purged the city of the prostitutes, they will go to the outskirts and clean them out. The city is fairly quiet un- der the circumstances
