Salem Is the Business Center
of Oregon Hop Industry

portion controlled by the association be-
ing 80 far, unsold.
This works u hardship on business as
n vast amount Of money tied up in them
is kept out OF circulation.
Prices have ranged all the way from !
to 12 cents for this season g crop, and
most independent growers have sold.
The association however, is holding
out for 10 cents and its leaders seem
to feel confident they will get it.
What future lies before this industry
is hard 20 predict. Today six states,
with eight million population went on
the water wagon, and this Of course will
do away with q largo part OF the beer
consumption, and that means the des-
truction Of a considerable part Of the
hop market. How hard the market will
be hit remains 20 be seen, but IL is
bound TO hurt some.
The hop crop more than any other is
looked upon as Salem's greatest asset.
The picking furnishes employment for
thousands Of those really needing tho
work and also the money and who

from the vast number Of books put out
every year, the very best along each line
suited to the needs Of this community

balanced so that one subject such as
history does not grow at the expense of
another such as literature, and so that
the library does not get overstocked
with fiction at the expense Of books
Of information. Suggestions as to
books you would like to have in the IL

brarian. She is always glad too, to get
good books along any line in which you
may be interested II you will only make
your needs known. The most useful il

No story Of Oregon IS complete un'

now that their use in Oregon where they
are grown, is practically prohibited, q
few words about them will not be ont

Tho Oregon hop crop ranks high any
where, and generally commands the top
prices. For the past two years prices
have ruled low for several reasons. One
Of them is said TO be in retaliation for
Oregon - years OF fighting for prohi
bition, and the last year on account Of
her putting the breweries Of the state
out Of business. The others do not mat

Oregon usually produced from 10000
to 10000 bales Of hops, and fully one
half Of this yield is grown near 10, and
may be snid 10 bo tributary 10 salem.
There are probably 60,000bales Of the
crop handled by Salem dealers. The
capital city Is headquarters for hop
merchants, the hop center Of the state,

ever hurts tho hop crop or its prices,
hurts Salem, and both the crop and
prices are off this year, as they were

A new YEARS MESSAGE.
By DR.. Carl Gregg Doney, President Of
Willamette University.

The life of Willamette university has
been contemporaneous with that Of Sa'
lem; and for almost three-fourths Of a
century their interests have been mu-
tual. 1t requires no great wisdom to
see how the two are bound together or
10 know that neither would willingly
part with the other. Their fame and
prosperity have been closely linked and
will continue to be so.
Commercially the university is differ
ent from mandatory, yet it con
tributes to the financial resources Of
the community by bringing to it several
hundred persons who otherwise would
not be here. The university likewise
conserves the resources Of the city by
enabling residents to secure q higher
education at home. Were they obliged
to go to q distance for it, they would
annually spend considerable sums in
other cities which are now retained.
And were Willamette not here, some of
our finest young people would be de-
MED college education because of the
lack of means to go to a distant school
The university is also in some respects
like a church--a constant appeal for
the better things of life. Everyone feels
the need of such an appeal in order to
be saved from too great absorption in
his vocation.
During the past year, the faculty OF
Willamette has been increased and
much strengthened, the curriculum has
been enlarged and real sense of har
m0hy engendered between faculty an(
students. Some minor, yet valuable
material improvements have been made
the endowment has received small ad
ditions, Mr.. NJ. A. Smith has presenteC
the library with several hundred new

NEEDFUL KNOWLEDGE.
KlDqstree People Should Learn to De-
tecf the Approach OF Kidney Disease.

The symptoms of kidney trouble
are many. Disordered kidneys often
excrete a thick, cloudy, offensive
urine, full of sediment, irregular of
passage or attended with a sensation
of scalding. The back may ache,
headaches and dizzy spells may oc-
cur and the victim is often weighed
down by a feeling of languor and
fatigue. Neglect these warnings
and there is danger. Delay often
proves fatal.
You can use no better endorsed
kidney remedy than Doan's Kidney
Pills. Here's Kingstree proof of
their merit.
C R Thomas, photographer, Mill
st, ,Kingstree, says: My kidneys were
disordered, and l suffered from dull
pains in my back. l was sore and
lame in the morning and could hard
ly stoop. l had headaches and dizzy
spells. The kidney secretions passed
irregularly and caused me no end OF
trouble. When l read about Doan's
Kidney Pills got a supply at Al

of all signs of kidney complaint"

SPENT $500 IN YEAR
IN HUNT FOR RELIEF,
Father Tells Of Terrible Suffering His
Daughter Endured.
ALL TREATMENT FAILED
SAYS She Had 200 Commissions Tan
lac Almost Restored Health
In Two Weeks.

Just two and a half bottles OF
Tanlac have banished in three (3)
weeks the stomach trouble with
which Mrs Mary G Kernels, of 16
Hammet St, Anderson, S C, suffer-
ed and which, during the proceed
ing eleven (1D months and had
caused her to have at least two hun
dred (20O) convulsions, said her
father, G w Hale, of IS Hammet
St, Anderson.
Mr. Hale said he, with others, had
laid out Mrs Kernels body at least
two hundred (20Q) times during the
past eleven (ll) months, each time
thinking her dead. Il hoped she
really was dead," he said, so she
would not have to longer endure
that awful suffering"
Mr. Hale's statement follows, and
it is one of the most remarkable
that has yet come to the attention
of the Tanlac representative:
For five years my daughter, Mrs
Mary G Kernels, suffered after eat
ing the most severe attacks OF indi-
gestion. We had tried every way
to find relief for her suffering, but
without success. She had even
been under the knife at a hospital.
During the past year we spent at
least six hundred ($6OO.0O) dollars
for doctors bills for her, but Tanlac
was the only medicine which gave
her relief. Tanlac is the greatest
medicine on earth.
Her suffering was so intense and
80 terrible that it caused her to go
into a kind of covulsion. We had
laid her out, thinking she was dead
at least two hundred (20O) times in
the past eleven months. Scores OF
times when she was laid out hoped
she really was dead, so she would
not have to longer endure that awful
suffering.
but, she was relieved in just
two (2) weeks by Tanlac, and now,
fifteen (15) days after she began
taking it, she is up and goes out
visiting, though she had been con-
fined to her bed six (6) weeks be-
fore she began taking Tanlac. -
Mrs Kernels, who lives at l6
Hammet St, said: Il suffered from
chronic stomach trouble, and stead
lily became worse despite all treat
ment. Last summer l was twice
operated on, without gaming relief.
l was told my case was hopeless, but
J began taking Tanlac and the very
first dose decreased the intensity Of
those awful attacks which followed
each meal. I have taken two and
a half (21) bottles OF Tanlac, and
have gained ten (10) pounds in
weight. 1 am doing my housework
now,, and do not suffer those at
tacks.
Mrs Kernels father and his wife,
her husband and a neighbor were
present during these conversations.
Evans Pharmacy, Anderson. will
be pleased to answer any inquiries
regarding the above statements.
