Only One Tree in Twenty
Grows to Maturity.
Companion.

Efforts should be made also to
select those which have grown
on rich, well-drained soil. The
theory that trees taken from the
forest or from inclement condi-
tions will be more hardy, runs
quite opposite to the fact. In
deed, the best plan is everywhere
to buy young trees from the nur-
series. Nursery trees have clean,
symmetrical tops, and are likely
to have a hundred times more
good rootage than trees taken
from the field. Everything is in
favor of the nursery grown tree,
except the price, and very often
the expense of digging and bring
ing in a half-dozen good-sized
naples or pin-oaks from the
woods is greater than the cost of
better trees of similar size from
the most expensive nursery in
the country. y.-Woman's Home

If You Own Cows

1t will not only be interesting but it
will be profitable for you to read that
little national dairy magazine, Kim
balls Dairy Farmer. 1t is published
semi-monthly at Waterloo, Iowa, the
hub of the great dairy region of the
central west. 1t is ably edited, well
printed on good book paper and hand
sOmely illustrated by actual photo
graphs taken exclusively for it. Its
purpose is educational and to the man
who would make his cows yield larger
profits, this little magazine is indis-
pensable. Regardless of how many
other papers the farmer MAY take, this
one is worth many times its price to
him. The subscription price is only
so cents a year, and the paper will
positively be discontinued at expira
tiOn. Send for sample copy.

MINISTERS THREATEN
A GENERAL EXODUS

Pendleton is soon to suffer an ex-
odus of ministers. Present indications
are that three popular local "sky pi-
lots" to-wit, Rev. H. T. Cash, Rev. ].
B. Holmes and Rev. F. J. Mines, will
depart during the summer.
Rev Herbert T. Cash. pastor of the
Baptist church during the past year.
has already rendered his resignation
and he leaves July 81 for Portland to
become pastor of the Grace Baptist
church of that city. The Grace Bap-
tist is the church over which the Rev.
Albert Patch has been pastor and the
elevation of the local minister to the
position is in the nature of a pro-
motion. Mr. Cash has been head of
the local Baptist congregation since
the departure of Rev. Story last sum-
mer and has been very popular and
progressive pastor.
The Rev. Holmes, pastor of the
Christian church for some months
past has been here more as a finan-
cial agent than to fill the pulpit per-
manently. He is to leave as soon as
his successor is chosen. At the pres
ent time the Rev. Talbert F. Weaver
of Houston, Texas, is in line for the
post but it is not yet fully decided that
he will succeed the Rev. Holmes.
Rumor has it that the Rev. Frank
]. Milnes, eloquent and energetic pas
tor of the Presbyterian church is al
so to leave the city. However this IS
speculative as the pastor has not ten
dered his resignation and when ques-
toned on the subject declined to say
anything further than that he had not
resigned. 1t is known however, that
the pastor and some of his flock hold
different views as to orthodoxy and it
would not be astonishing should the
pulpit be vacated by Rev. Milnes this
summer.
Should the Presbyterian pastor as
we'll as his brothers of the Baptist and
Christian churches leave during the
summer Pendleton will then be left
with only two old protestant minis
ters. They will he the Rev. Charles
Quincy, rector of the Church of the
Redeemer. and the Rev. Nathan Ev-
ans, pastor of the Methodist church.

of the ha ter rope to his foot. Beau
tiful idea that" he thought to himself.
IF | get dumped from my seat, pres
to. | give a jerk with my foot and
Mr.. Horse finds he has not accom-
plished quite so much as he thought"
He reasoned. however without TAX
ing in:o consideration all of the pos
sibilities of the case. He overlooked
just what did happen. He got into
the saddle, the horse pitched and
tossed just as he had expected and
he was projected into the air as he
had anticipated he would be. When
he lighted on the ground he gave a
jerk with his foot but, if the horse
noted it, he did not heed it. He
dashed down the hill at a breakneck
speed and the farmer trailed behind.
1t might have been a mile and it
might have been only a half that the
farmer was thus dragged but when
the horse was finally stopped by his
son, he was bleeding from a thou
sand scratches.
He was brought to his home in this
city where DR. J. A. Best dressed his
injuries. The old gentleman gamely
admitted his defeat and declared that
the next time he would lead his horse
from pasture.

BIG BUNCH RANGE
CATTLE BROUGHT HERE

One of the largest shipments of
outside cattle received here for many
months was brought to Pendleton
Saturday night by Clarence Adams,
who has just returned from points in

year old steers which will be prepared
for market on the Adams range near
Ukiah. The herd is this afternoon be-
ing driven to the mountains, follow
ing a rest at the poor farm feeding
grounds.
Mr.. Adams purchased more than
one thousand steers for various par
ties in this section of the state, over
two hundred, belonging to Frank
Bird, arriving today. Other ship
ments, bought by Mr.. Adams, We're
unloaded at Huntington and Baker,
While still others were shipped to

TO PREVENT BUCKHG HORSE FROM RUNNING.

a horse that has bucking proclivities
Saturday he went out to his Cabbage
Hill ranch to get one of his horses
that had been in pasture. He was
happy and whole when he went but
today he is lying in a bed of pain,
few ribs broken, his face and body
a mass of scabs and sorry figure in

ticipated that the horse would buck
when he mounted to its back and
thought to outwit the frisky beast.
Mr.. Palmer has reached that time
of life when he dislikes to use up
his energy in walking. He went out
in his pasture for his horse and he
carried his saddle out with him so
that he could ride back The horse
captured and saddled, the farmer con-
ceive the idea that. after its long va
cation from toll, the animal might re-
bel at the thoughts of a return to
the life of slavery. In ther words, he
had an idea that the animal might
buck little when mounted and, hav-
ing himself never set up to be a
champion buckaroo he decided to
show his mastery of the situation by
an employment of his native wits.
Therefore, before he mounted to the

porary chairman of the democratic
national convention which convenes
in this city tomorrow for the purpose
Of nominating a democratic candidate
for president and vice president. He
today issued a statement in which
he said that he would become a can

as a progressive, if the progressive
faction of the party cannot find any
other likely candidate to make the
fight against Judge Alton B. Parker
whom the conservatives have slated
for the place.
Mr.. Bryan stated that he hoped
someone else would be decided on by
the progressives, but declared that Il
they could not get get together tha
he would permit the use of his name
for the place.
Also, said Mr.. Bryan, he is satisfied
that the conservatives are making al
effort to split the progressives ant
thus diminish their strength.
IF they insist on Parker" said Bry
an, there is only Que meaning tina
can be placed on the action of th'
national committee. That is tha
they want a fight. We will accept the
challenge and will give them a battle

TAFT ENTHUSIASM
NOT FOUND HERE

News of the denomination of Pres
ident Taft was received in Pendleton
Saturday evening without the slight
est manifestation of enthusiasm. AS
the first dispatch telling of he out
come OF the republican convention
was flashed upon the screen by the
East Oregonian, the crowd which had
gathered read 1t in silence, Not a sign
of the wild eXhuberanCe which gen.
orally greets such news, not a SEM
blance of applause, not a scintilla Of
anything that could by the widest
stretch of the imagination be con-
strued as enthusiasm was in evidence.
Taft and Roosevelt men, republicans
and democrats alike. whatever their
inward feelings, received the news
with only casual remark.
Today there is mucn speculation To-
cally as to whether or not the nomi-
nation of Taft by the steam roller
method will result in the formation OF
a third party as the Roosevelt lead
ers hope. Sentiment differs, though
all agree that much will depend upon
the action of the democratic conven-
tion this week. If the democrats NOM
mate a conservative, which is hardly
probable it is generally believed here
that the Roosevelt men receive en-
couragement in their plans by the de-
feated faction of democrats and that
a National Progressive party, unit
ing the progressive republicans and
progressive democrats, will become a
reality. 70

Chicago, June 24.-The republican

after a short session, the only busi-

a committee of nine who will con-
fer with President Taft as soon as
possible Permanent organization of
the committee and the work OF or
ganization during the coming cam
paign will be directed by President
Taft. The committee will decide

In the committee appointed to con-

supporters, Thomas X. Niedringhams
of Missouri, and Roy o. West of H.

with Taft the resolution passed, COM
pelling every member to support the

members of the committee to take
no action till the president had been
consulted.
At a short session here today with
General Powell Clayton of Arkansas,
present, he was given the chair be-
cause in point of service he was the
