is PROHIBITION A JOKE?
California Liquor House Flooding
State With Circulars.

Thousands of circulars advertising
the opening of the bonded liquor
warehouse at Hornbfook, Cal, have
been mailed to citizens in this state.
The first consignment was received in
Dallas this week. Every man in Polk
county, no matter with what frequen-
cy he bends his elbow, will receive
one of these announcements. It is
frankly stated that the object of the
business is TO arrange it $50 you
don't have to worry about prohibi-
tom It is further stated that
with your name on our mailing list
the idea that you are in q dry state
will never enter your mind" The
injunction is also given "be prepared
for the worst-and send in your order
now."
The advertising activity of the
bonded warehouse promoters is due to
the fact, that with prohibition effec-
tive in three months, local dealers
are selling futures in booze by barrel
lots. The names of 380SO0 users of
liquors and beers in Oregon and
Washington are on the mailing lists.
The bonded warehouse promises to
make jest of prohibition as far as
it restrains from the use of intoxicat-
ing liquor in this state. 1t is agreed
to furnish refreshments from quart
lots to the limit, and at the present
prices, with express charges paid on
all amounts over one bottle. The Ii
eense money goes to the state of Cali
fornia. The bonded warehouse is call
ed Mayors, and was formerly Fleck-
stein Mayer company of Portland, in
business in this state for over forty
years.

@. L. Hawley Reflected.

C. L. Hawley of Polk county was
reelected president of the Oregon
Pure Bred Livestock association,
which held its annual meeting held
in Salem on Wednesday evening. 9th
er officers are N. C. Maris, vice-pres-
ident; and Charles Cleveland, secre-
tary. The organization will ask the
state fair board next year to publish
several days before the opening of
the state fair catalogue giving all
entries of livestock. This will great
ly facilitate the Judging and handling
Of stock, and is an important step in
view of the increasing value of the
stock show in connection with the an
nual state fair.

SEEK STILL MORE GLORY
POLK WILL EXHIBIT POULTRY
ABROAD.
Local Fanciers Planning to Partici-
pate in Show at Frisco.
A Fine Compliment.

Following the state fair at Salem
the poultrymen Of this county will
begin preparations for the exhibit at
the Panama exposition, where they
will be well represented. When Ben.
Keeney was here last week judging
the poultry exhibit at the fair, he in
terested a number of local poultrymen
in the Forthcoming show at San Fran
cisco, of which he is commissioner for
Oregon, and received the promise of
several that they would ship their
birds there. But Mr.. Keeney is not
satisfied with the number declaring
their intention to make exhibits, and
in order to create greater enthusiasm
in Polk county he will return here in
the near future for the purpose of
furthering his promotion work.
Mr.. Keeney is one of the best.
known poultrymen in the state, and is
considered an authority as judge
of pure-breds. While judging the
birds at the fair he highly compli'
mented the stock here by saying that
it has no superior in Oregon, and
hence he is anxious that it have rep.
resentation in the big show, where the
keenest of competition may be ex-
pected from poultry from all sections
of the country. Among those who
have signifed their intention of
showing at the exposition are Mrs.
Winnie Braden, Cooper Brothers,
and Henry Voth.

who died this summer as a result of
railroad grade crossing accidents, in
volving automobiles, motor trucks and
pedestrians were trespassers on rail
road property. In the report of the
Investigators it is stated that 28 times
as many trespassers as passengers
were killed last year. The proportion
of deaths from defective rails and
other railroad equipment is small as
compared with deaths resulting from
crossing accidents and other careless
ness on the part of victims.

MESA NEWS NOTES
COUNTY FAIR BIGGEST
 SUCCESS EVER STAGED
Finance Committee Reports Better
 Than Even Break

The glamour and glare of the big county fair has at last left Mesa: with its going naturally comes the question, Was it a success?". It may be stated here that it was more than success in every way
 The attendance surpassed the high est figures yet hung up for like cele- Oration, any place in the state; the eX- nibits were better and more numer- ous: and the program arranged was said to be the best ever.
 MT c. P. Blanton of the finance com mittee, reports that from a financial standpoint, at present, it seems to have been quite a success, as it was better than an even break. Almost all of the subscriptions nave been collected. and in some instances doubled, and NIT Blanton says he was told to come back for more if there was any deficiency. So as whole the fair was quite a success-quite a boost for Mesa and its wide awake commercial club.

This simple mixture can be depended pon to restore natural color and b, auty to the haT- and is splendid fo. dandruff, dry, itchy scalp and falling hair.
 A well-known down town drug gist says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, because it darkens So naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied-it's so easy to use, too. You simply dampcn comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair. taking a strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears: after another application or two, it is restored to it's natural color and looks glossy, soft and abundant.

PYTH|AN INSTALLATION
 AND GOOD TIME EVENT
Knights and Friends Enjoy One of the Semi-annuaL Good lyme"
 Programs

That interest in lodge circles slackens not at all because of the warm weather or the fact that so many people are absent for the sum mer, was clearly demonstrated at the special program of the Knights of Pythias Tuesday evening when new officers were installed to serve during the balance of this year. It was a lively meeting, nearly a hundred were present and everybody was treated to the right royal good time and with the true friendly feeling that Pythianism so clearly defines.
 The program of the evening was opened with the installation of the new officers. This is the corps who will conduct Pythian affairs between now and January 1916: T. Dickinson, chancellor commander; A. J. Mullen. vice chancellor; James A. Blakely. preIate: A c. Wood. master of work; Charles H. Prather. master of eX- cheauer: X. n. Carnes. master of arms: George Stalie. Inner guard; F.. A. Row. outer guard; A B. Clark, keeper of records and seals: s. J. Jennings. master of finance The in staIlation ceremony was beautifully conducted and was viewed with keen est interest by the lodge members and guests.
 Another particularly striking phase of the program was the presentation of The Lesson of Friendship by the lodge team. reputed in Pythian circles to be one of the best in the state.
 Conclusive to the formal part of the program was general social time in the banquet hall. SeasOnable refreshments were served and the people mingled for long and highly enjoyable while before they bade farewell to the Pythians and to one of the best Pythian good times they had ever been invited to enjoy
