Read fine Store News

1t always pays to read the adver-
tisements in newspapers because they
contain news-store news-and there
is no one who does not buy some
thing. II there were no buyers, there
would be no reason to publish store
Hews. Shippers OF live stock always
read the markets" Buyers of grain
always read the quotations. why
should not buyers OF shoes, hats. gro
ceries and all other kinds of mer-
chandise read the store news-the
advertisements? AS there Is more
buying, more trade. during the Christ
mas shopping period than any other
In the year, there is also more store
news and more occasion to read the
advertisements, II one aims to do the
best buying.
The subject is a far more serious
one than those who read newspapers
either to pass the time away or to
amuse themselves imagine. The
Blhe1eld Telegraph impresses that
fact as follows:
Newspaper readers who see only
the news column are far from get.

Smile q. breakfast

1 The breakfast smile is said to be
worth twice as much as the dinner
smile, but how many persons take adj
vantage OF the double value? For
the benefit of the vast majority who
do not, the Telegram belieYts the fol-
lowing editorial by the Indianapolis
News should have general circulation
! and 1t, accordingly does its part In
passing it along:
If dinner smile is worth a dollar,
breakfast smile is surely worth two
for then the need is more than twice
as great. In many homes breakfast
Is disordered rout, with time IN hot
pursuit. 1t is merely an INTERRUPTION
In the flight from bedroom to office,
school or shop. And where haste is
the rule 1t is no wonder that face
tious witticisms fly quick and true,
and that things are said which cause
unpleasant recollections when, an
hour later, the day is in full swing,
and the mind has lost its abnormal
sensitiveness.
Happily, the haste that engenders
satrical gibes also serves to mitigate
their severity, and by the time the

much that was said in haste at break
fast is forgotten. But not all Of 1t.
"a chance remark uttered without

wound and send some member Of the
family about his business with 9

pain to him and his associates.
!. It is this occasional shaft that con-
. dennis the whole practice of giving
way to petty annoyances at break
fast time. One way to avoid 1t is to
get up ten minutes earlier. This at

Derson who has a strong mind and a

success will bring a new and fresher
outlook to the experlmenter. Nor will
It affect him alone.

FUR AS a FARM PRODUCT.


Wild bur bearing animals have be-
come so scarce in North America that
the women Of this country are wear
ing skunk, opossum, muskrat, do
mestic cat and even squirrel furs In
stead of the mink and otter and beay-
Ter, which are now beyond the reach
OF all hut the wealthy
This state OF affairs has created q
splendid opportunity for the produc-
ton of fur from animals kept In cap
tiyity; and the United States Biologl-
cal Survey has begun a series Of ex-
periments In the raising of fur bear
ing animals in order to be able to
inform American farmers of the pos
sibilities of fur-raising as business.
Most Of the successful fur farming in
this country has been done with fox
and skunk; but the government ex-
perts believe that mink and marten
will prove even more practicable as
domestic fnimals.
The experiments have shown that
these animals are very easy to care
for, thrive in a small space, and eat
great variety Of food. 1t is believed
that fur-farming offers an especial
opportunity for the small farmer and
the country dweller generally who
has a small capital TO invest.

lands, under the Central Oregon and
Pilot Butte Canals. Estimates made
by reliable engineers show the cost of
completing said North Canal Unit to
be $45O,00O, which together with the
100000 asked by the company, would
mean a total cost of $750,OO0. But as
this Unit contains about $4,000 unsold
irrigable acres, the cost of reclaiming
the lands would be but $22 per acre.
There being no engineering difficulties
in the way, the project could be COM
pleted at a very early date.
The proposition has been presented
to the Secretary of the Interior and
the Reclamation Service, with a view
of securing cooperation, and has found
favor in that direction The govern

lands sold, all of which will be done
this fall, that the securities be taken
over by the state school fund or sold

investors, thus releasing the Tumale

me as a common sense remedy for a

claimed at an early date, and thus not
only provide desirable homes for a
large number of settlers, but add great

|EAT LESS MEAT
IF BACK HURTS
Take a Glass of Salts to Flush Kidneys
if Bladder Bothers You-Drink
Lots of Water.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney truble in some form
or other, says we'll known authority,
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys, they become overworked;
get sluggish;' clog up and cause all
corts of distress, particularly backache
and misery in the kidney region; rheu-
matte twinges, severe headaches, acid
stomach, constipation, torpid liver,
sleeplessness, bladder and urinary irri-
tation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
eys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy,
take a tablespoonful in glass of water
before breakfast for few days and
your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is male from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for genera
tions to flush clogged kidneys and stim-
ulate them to normal activity; also to
Ieutralize the acids in the urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes delightful effervescent lithia-

women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.

the Pacific Coast were getting and had
received what they should, according
to consumption and production and ac-
cording to the brewing qualities of
Pacific Coast hops and the hops that
are produced in the other hopgrowing

have put Mr.. Short Seller out of com.

matter by what agency-the federal
government, the state or private cor
poration-the money Is advanced, it
must be repaid by the settlers. If the
federal government makes the advance,
it must be repaid. If the state makes
the advance, it must be repaid, and so
must the private corporation be repaid
for its advances. The argument ad-
vanced, that if such work is under
taken by the state, it will throw undue
burdens upon the taxpayers, is not well
founded. Should the $450,O00 now be.
ing used for the construction of the

a like sum allotted by the federal gov
ernment placed in a revolving fund, all

Something over 100000 acres of said
seggregations are irrigable. One of the
units, known as the Benham Falls pro.
tect, containing about $4,000 acres, has
not as yet been touched, and to pre-
vent confusion will be eliminated from
the present discussion. This deduction
will leave approximately 141,00O acres,
10000 of which are probably irrigable,
OF the said 141,00O gross acres, about
10000 are to be served by what is

have been sold. While practically no

CENTRAL OREGON IRRIGATION
CoMPANY'S PLAN OUTLINED
Governor Says 1t Appeals to Him and
He Believes State Should Do
Something at an Early Date.
BY GOVERNOR WEST.

In 1894 Congress passed what is
known as the Carey Act which granted
one million acres of unappropriated
Government lands to each state in the
arid region on condition that the state
would provide for its reclamation, and
sell it in small tracts to actual settlers.
The means of reclamation adopted
by several states was that of entering
into contracts with private corpora
tions. When project is discovered by
some promoter request is usually
made by him for the withdrawal of the
lands, Later contracts are entered into
between the state, the federal govern
ment, and the company offering to re-
claim the lands. In order that the com
pany might be reimbursed for the cost
of reclaiming the lands, it is permitted
to sell water rights at price fixed by
the state.
