CHECK OF THE
CONTRACTOR
is FORFEITED

For the lack of a better topic the
members OF the council last night
amused themselves with indulgence in
protracted discussion whether Geo.
Gordon should be held to his contract
to build lateral sewer in lateral sewer
district No. 15, and they decided-as
they had decided once before--that he
should and passed a resolution declar-
ing his check given for the faithful
performance of the contract be for
feited.
Because the council found 1t neces-
sary to authorize one of its members
to sign this contract the mayor de-
clinlng because 1t did not contain a
clause requiring that vitrifled pipe
should be used, and because altera-
ticns had been made in the contract,
Gordon some time ago asked to be re-
lieve The council refused and passed
T6boluIlOu luat uhiOoo hO bN6Nh
work under 1t within 10 days that his
check should be forfeited
The time had expired last night and
the resolution was introduced order
ing the contract rescinded. After
much discussion on the subject this
resolution was voted down and res
olution passed declaring the check
forfeited. Gordon has employed attor-
neys and does not intend to carry out
the contract, it is said, and an action
will likely be instituted to have the
contract rescinded and the money re-
covered.

FLAX GROWING is SUCCESS
ON NORTH POWDER FARM

Flax growing is going to be a big
industry in Powder River valley from
this time on.
This has been the experimental year
and the success that has been attained
by few farmers will encourage the
seeding of a largely increased eacre-
age next year.
The first to try flax growing are
Landreth brothers, who purchased the
big Proffitt farm of 1900 acres on
North Powder.
Last spring they seeded 100 or more
acres in flax and the growth has been
perfect, fully demonstrating the adap-
liability Of the soil to this culture. Next
year they propose to seed several hun
dred acres more. Besides this their
neighbors are going into the industry
on a large scale.-Baker Democrat.

PEEVISH CHILDREN
SUFFER WITH WORMS

Don't be angry with your child be-
cause he or she is continually irrlta-
BILE. In SO out of 100 cases you will
find that the trouble is worms.
Among the common symptoms of
the presence of round worms are
nervousness-wh often leads to
epileptlform attacks-dizziness, verti-
go, capricious appetite, restless
sleep, itching Of the eyes and nose,
nausea and often hysteria. Round
worms are several inches in length
and infest the stomach Occasional
ly several hundred are found in a
single person. Thread worms are
smaller, often not longer than a
quarter of an inch. The symptoms
denotlng their presence are about the
same, but in this case the child has
no appetite
Jayne's Tonic Vermifuge is unsur-
passed in removing worms. Not only
will 1t destroy them, but its tonic ef-
fects will restore the stomach to
healthy activity. AS Jaynes Tonic
vermifuge seldom purges, the indi-
cations of its beneficial effects will

OREGON'S NINETEEN HUNDRED
AND TWELVE BUMPER CROP

Harvesting has so far progressed in
this part of Umatllla county as to in
sure predictions already made of the
biggest crop ever grown in the Pilot
Rock neighborhood. Nor is the enor-
nous output of the farms in the south
end Of this county an exception to the
general rule, bumper crops being re-
ported in all sections Of the state.
In review of the crop situation in
this state the Oregonian of Monday
last has this to say:
If there is any adverse factor in the
situation, it is the chance that some
Of the crops may be so large they will
have to sell for less money than in
ether years. The surplus to be mar
l1eted, however, is so great that the
total income will be enormous.
The wheat crop this year will net
the farmers of Oregon $12,5O0,0OO. The
oats crop will bring in half as much
money as the wheat CROP and barley
crop will produce million. The 9TH
er grains and hay will also add vast
sum to the states wealth.
The year 1912 is undoubtedly the
81 Ieatest fruit year Oregon has yet
known. The total value of all fruits is
laced at more than $6,5OO,OOO The
potato yield, which is enormous, will
even on lower market bring the
farmers close to $1,5OO,O0O, and the
onion and root crops will add materl-
ally to this sum.
The hop crop is going to be great
one, on the acreage, and at the pres
cnt market price will give the farmers
S2,2O0,O00 all of it money brought
from outside the state. The value of
the wool and mohair clips exceeds $S,-
100000
In every county in Oregon the crop
prospects are excellent and in many
Of them the yields will surpass all
previous records. In not a single sec.
tion has there been failure. In the

The wheat crop Of oregon will am
cunt to about 1S 100000 bushels. Tn,
yield will be a record one in Umatilli
Wallowa, Baker, Wasco, Sherman, I'm
ion, and Gillian counties, the latte

FAST ONES
ARE SENT TO
PORTLAND
STRING OF RACE HORSES SENT TO
PORTLAND, BUT WILL BE HELD
DOWN FOR THE BIG MEET AT
STATE FAIR IN SEPTEMBER.

About $17,500 worth of race horses
left the State Fair grounds yesterday
afternoon for Portland, where they
are entered in the racing events which
are to be pulled off at that place the
latter part of this month. The valua-
BILE shipment belongs to California
people and are under the care of M. G.
Keefer, L. j. Daniels and d. l.. Bach
ant, of California also.
A hard surface track is the cause
for the horsemen shifting at this time
While Lone Oak track is probably just
as fast and equally well conditioned
for training, it is necessary that the
southern PAGERS and trotters should
be acclimated and for this reason they
are being carried further north. The
Portland course will be the scene OF
several days workout now, but the
visiting horses will not be pushed to
their limit for fear of laming them on
the hard track. Although every horse
man leaving Salem for Portland will
make an attempt to get in the big
money, 1t is predicted they will take
no chances upon harming their horses
by record-brealing driving over the
solid course.
The real speed and heart-breaking
driving will occur in Salem from Sep
tember 2 to Z, Drivers may crowd
their horses to the limit on Lone Oak
track and no lameness or straining
of tendons will result due to the
springy condition of the ground OF
which the course is composed. Dick
Ward who has a speedy string stalled
at Lone Oak at present, refuses tt
work out on the Portland track fol
the reason his horses went lame las
year, while Francis j., one Of the fast
} est PAGERS on the coast, will receive
his daily warming in Salem. Ben Wal
ker, one Of the most faithful patrons
