SpSAiS III d-lO YlSOI.
AS one grows old the waste of the
system becomes more rapid than re-
pair, the organs act more slowly and
less effectively than in youth, the cir
culation Is poor, the blood thin and
digestion weak.
Vinol, our delicious cod liver and
iron tonic without oil Is the ideal
strengthener and body-builder for old
foiSs, for 1t contains the very elements
needed to rebuild wasting tissues and
replace weakness with strength. Vinol
also fortifles the system against colds
and thus prevents pneumonia.
Mrs. Mary Ivey, of Columbus, Ga.
says: IF people only knew the good
Vinol does old people, l am sure you
would be unable to supply the de-
mand. I never took anything before
that did me so much good as Vinol.
1t is the finest tonic and strength
creator l ever used In my life"
If Vinol fails to build up the feeble.

CITIZENS PLAN FOR
BENSON TESTIMONIAL

Many of the residents of the city are
acquainted with the beauties of views
that can be seen from a rocky promon-
tory jutting out high above the Colum-
bia river just at the top of the Rutht0n
hill, a little over two miles west of the
city. 1t is at this point that testi-
monial Of Hood River citizens, an ex-
preston of their gratitude to S. Ben
sons energy and endeavors, expended
in Fastening the completion of the Co.
lumbia highway through the county,
may be erected. Plans for the pro-
posed testimonial are taking definite
shape, and last week at d meeting in
the rooms of the Commercial club the
following committee was appointed to
work on the campaign, that, from gen.
eral expressions of sentiment, will be
warmly supported: S. A. Mitchell,
Walter Kimball, Roy d. Smith. M. r.
Noble and o. F. Dabney.
Mr.. Dabney owns tract Of land at
this point, having made a purchase a
little over year ago from the Stanley
Smith Lumber Co. 1t is suggested
that balustrade be constructed Of
huge boulders around the semicircular
edge of the cliff, and turn around"
road from the main highway will fol.
low this, giving the motorist the op-
portunity to drive to the very verge Of
the gorge and enjoy the superb pano-
ramas. Just at the top of the grade a
gateway will be built, and the segment
made by the main highway and the
turn around" road will be made into
beautiful park.
Whatever site may be chosen. before
any actual construction is begun. q
skilled landscape gardener will be con.
suited. Mr.. Kimball, member of the
committee in charge. has had expert.
ence in landscape work, and will be
able to furnish valuable information.

UPPER VALLEY
WANTS SURVEY
CITIZENS MEET WITH co. COURT
Proposed Loop Highway Would Connect
with Macadam Stretches and Serve
all Upper Valley Residents

Following a campaign inaugurated
by the Upper Valley Good Roads AS
sociaion, which was organized several
weeks ago. the following members Of
a committee that was appointed at the
time OF organization. accompanied by
Truman Butler, j. II. Heilbronner and
Allan Macrum, met with sthe county
court yesterday and asked that an en-
glneer be appointed to maze sGrvey
Uf proposed. loop highway penetrating
the Upper Valley: Charles Steinhaus-
er, J. X. Barroll, Jr., J. F. Thompson,
NJ, y. Boe, Geo. Monroe, A II. Nickels
and Ralph Root.
MIR, Steinhauser, who was spokesman
for the Upper Valley citizens, explain
ed to thescourt that il was desired BY
those who were looking forward to the
construction of such highway, that
the enigneer not only lay out the route
accordingltO grade that might be speci-
fled, but that an estimate be made as
to the cost of construction.
1t is proposed that the loop road con-
meet with the stretches Of macadam on
the east and west sides of the Lower
Valley. 1t will proceed up the Neal
creek canyon or over a new survey
over Booth hill, pass along the route Of
the road now leading by the Mount
Hood store and cross the East Fork of
Hood river at point where bridge
could be constructed most economically
and penetrate the orchard country Just
south of the Mount Hood store in the
region of A. b. Coulter's place. II js
suggested that the two branches of the
road meet in the China Hill vicinity.
The road on the West Side will pass
up by Winans station and Dee. 1t will
pass over to the west side of the East
Fork and enter Parkdale from the west.
The road will pass to the south OF
Parkdale through the thickly settled
tract in the vicinity of the Steinhauser
place. 1t said by those promoting the
highway that it will serve practically
all Of the Upper Valley residents, most
all of whom are enthusiastically in
favor of it.
After hearing the plans as outlined
by the Upper Valley citizens, the court
decided to accompany them over the
proposed route before taking any dehn-
ite action. The committee and the
members of the court will travel over
the route next Monday in the automo-
biles of MIR. Steinhauser and MIR. But

A number of other minor road peti.
tions were heard by the court yester-
day.

PROBLEMS DISCUSSED
BY ASSN MEMBERS

The opening meeting of the board of
directors of the Apple Growers Associ-
alton Saturday afternoon proved to be
an Interesting one and large number
of orchardists were in attendance,
crowding the rooms of the Commercial
club where the meeting was held. The
discussions for the most part were in
consideration of the grades and packs
to be used during the coming year. On
account of the short apple crop last
year the Association handled the lower
grades of fruit for its members. The
Special grade was admitted and sold

large crop in prospect and practically

to make a distinction in the slight diff

The three grades, extra fancy, fancy

this year.
The eastern apple buyer is after

western fruit comes up to the color
specifications more than that of any
other district. We found last year that

ira fancy, but having fungus defects,

The time limit on the closing Of pools
was discussed. 1t was felt by some
of the growers that an early closing of
pools would work a hardship on those
who were able to keep their fruit in
we'll constructed, privately owned stor-
age houses. But it is probable that d
reasonable time limit will be made on
the pools, and all fruit not in by that
time will be handled in special pools oil

BY Associated Press

Washington, d. c., Dec. 4.-The
new militia act Is working well, even
though it has been in operation for
short period, according to Com
mander +. b. Bassett, Jr., chief of the
Naval Militia Bureau in his annual
report to-day. on the whole, he says,
the naval militia increased in num-
bers during TIE past year for while
several divisions were disbanded a
number were organized and the in
crease is expected to be even more
marked during the coming year ow-
ing to the enthusiasm and interest
aroused by the passage of the act.
He recommends also that some of
the old battleships now in reserve be
assigned to naval militia of certain
States, the reserve officers and men
on the ships to remain aboard while
they are also occupied by the militia.
The plan is for the Illinois to be taken
to Brooklyn for use by the Second
Battalion of the New York Naval Mill
tia; the Maine to New York for the
use of the First Battalion of the New
Jersey Militia, and the First Battalion
of the New York Militia; the Alabama
to be taken to Boston for the use of

STATE LIVESTOCK
BOARD ARRESTS TWO
Failure to Observe the State Regu-
lations Leads to Warrants
For Chester County

Ziba G. Martin, manager of the West
Chester Creamery owned by the Dar-
lington estate, was arrested yesterday
upon complaint filed by the State
Livestock Sanitary Board and charged
with a violation of Section 33 of the
Act Of July %, 1913, which requires
pasteurization of skim milk and sepa-
rator 'slop' before returning to farm
ers for feeding to calves or swine.
UP to last Saturday the work OF
the State Livestock Sanitary Board in
eliminating foot and mouth disease
had progressed so favorably that It
was anticipated Chester county could
soon be released from quarantine. On
three new cases of infection in large
herds. This history of these cases is
said to indicate that the infection was
caused by feeding raw skinned milk
which had been obtained from Mr..
Martin. Several calves on other farms,
which IL is claimed received the raw
skim milk are showing suspicious
symptoms and 1t IS feared that addi-
tional cases may develop.
John NJ. Clayton, farmer and cat
tie dealer of Rising Sun. Md, was also
arrested at West Chester, at the in
stance of an agent of the board. Last
February Mr.. Clayton held a sale of
cattle in Maryland at which a number
of Pennsylvania farmers purchased
cattle. 1t Is charged that Mr.. Clayton
subsequently delivered some of the
cattle to the farms of the purchasers
in Pennsylvania without being accom-
panied by a certificate of health and
tuberculin test chart as required by
the PENNSYLVANIA act of assembly.
Mr.. Clayton was held in $500 bail
for appearance at the January term
of court in West Chester.
