HAS PHOENIX FOUND THE SAME?
The Answer is Found in the Straight
forward Statement of a Phoe-
nix Resident

We have been reading week after
week in the local press of Ashland
citizens who have been rid of dis
tresslng kidney and bladder troubles
by Doan's Kidney Pills, and we have
often wondered whether the same
nigh opinion of this medicine is to be
found in our neighboring towns.
This frank and earnest statement by
well-known and respected resident
OF Phoenix will set this doubt at rest:
Fl. Schurman, carpenter and build
er, Phoenix, Ore, says: "Doan's
Kidney Pills have ben used in my
home to good advantage and we have
always found them exactly as repre-
sented. Cne of my family was in
had shape with kidney trouble and
short use of Doan's Kidney Pills sets
him right"

Mid-Valey Fair
A Big Success

Gold Hill held the first annual
Mid-Valley Fair Saturday, and drew
crowd of 1000 people, with a day
full of features, chief among which
were the salmon and an Indian war
dance around a campfire by a half
hundred children. People from all
parts of the valley attended, and at
night carnival spirit prevailed that
marked the mining city as first-class
entertainers.
Sports marked the afternoon. The
boys and girls of the high school
played game of ball, and the boys
won 1913. The girls egg race was
won by Daisy Lyman, the sack race
by Leroy Dungy, the pole climb by
Horace Jones, the potato race OF
horseback by Ralph Darling, fancy
diving prize to Sprague Riegel.
An eugenic baby show with about
fifty babies on display was held, but
the prizes have not been awarded In

Snake Mother
Fights for Young

Monte Briggs has an exhibit OF
four rattlesnakes in a bottle of alco-
hol at his store. They are youngsters
eight or ten inches long and are
from a family Of thirteen (which
Monte's brother-in-law. Don Whit
ney, and some Hornbrook pals cap
tured in the California hills couple
of weeks ago.
Mr.. Whitney states that they
found the two old rattlers and eleven
young ones while out hunting. II
was the shedding season and the old
ones were too blind to see where to
strike. The daddy of the buncr
crawled into the rocks and thought
he was hid, but was shared with {
shoestring and tied to a bush. HI
couldn't see his captors but at the
slightest movement of the bush or {
stick poked at him he lunged and bi
Uiciously.
The mother rattler stood he
ground and fought for her younI
despite her blindness. Don says h,
has more respect for rattlesnake
since he saw the exhibition OF moth
er love that she gave. He says /

was actually pitiful to see her stay
in the open and fight and at the
same time keep her rattles going to
call her young to her and try to pro-
tect them.
The little ones were all around her
and the boys could not get near her
with forked stick and finally gave
the bunch charge of shot which
killed the old one and several of the
little ones. The little ones fought
with might and main when their cap
tors put forked sticks on their necks
and pinned them down. They were
finally captured, however, and the
four which Monte has on exhibition
crawled into the bottle voluntarily in
the hope of escaping. They keelet
over as soon as the alcohol touched
them.

GUINEAS ARE HARD TO RAISE
youno Birds Must Be Watched Care.
fully Until Past Tender Ase-or
Very Wild Nature.

Guinea hens are among the hardest
of all birds 10 breed. chiefly because
the young guinea is so extremely ten
der. They are also of very wild
nature. and when one OF them is lost
from the hen it may be counted as
lost. 1t is advisable to keep the young
guineas shut up for few days after
they are Matched and feed them on
bread crumbs. coarse corn meal and
occasionally hard-boiled egg, ground
fine and mixed with the bread crumbs.
After they leave the hen, if the days
are warm and bright, they are allowed
to hunt bugs and worms and require
little feeding After they are feath'
cred out they need little care, as they
are able to shift for themselves until
the winter cuts off their supply OF
food
In winter they must have a shelter
and be fed the same as other poultry,
but must be kept shut in when there
is snow on the ground, as they will
fly into the tops Of trees or on roofs
of buildings, and refuse to come down.

AXE on weight slowly, and it is not
profitable to keep them longer than
welve weeks.
Geese grow about as rapidly as

made for the original difference in
