HAD BRONCHIAL ASTHMA
So Badly Man Could Not Lie Down
 Cured by VinOl.


 For years and years we have been telling the people of New Britain that Vino1 is wonderful remedy for bronchial troubles. Here is positive proof
 fered from bronchial asthma. In the winter time I was obliged to sit in a Morris chair all night, as I could not lie down, owing to that dreadful choking sensation. I tried nearly every known remedy, but nothing rave me any relief until one day I met the Station Agent at Willisville, H., and he said he had been suf- ferer for years, but had been cured bv Vinol. I at once commenced to take it, and the result is my cough is gone, my appetite has improved, and I can lie down and sleep all night, and my experience leads me to be- lieves that V1nol is certain remedy for bronchial asthma" John H. Con- dell, Tilden, III.
 The reason that cough syrups fail in such cases is because they are palliative only, while Vinol removes the cause, being a constitutional rem edy in which are combined beef and cod liver peptones, iron and man. ganese peptonates and glycerophos- plates. It strengthens and revitalizes the entire system and assists nature to expel the disease.

Hardman Wrestler Wins Honors
From Local Boy.

Glenn Hadley, the Hardman wrest-
Ter, proved too much for Harry Gros-
hen Of this city in their tussle at the
Star theatre last Saturday afternoon.
The boys put up a fairly good exhibit
ticn and Eadley succeeded in getting
the first fall after 80 minutes of hard,
fast work. The second fall came
easier, GrOshen's shoulders going to
the mat after a struggle which lasted
barely five minutes.
Hadley is 81 years Of age and
weighs about 153 pounds. Groshen
is of a much heavier build but slow
er on his feet The Hardman boy dis
played a greater knowledge of the
game and appeared stronger at all
times than his adversary. Groshen
is only II years old and has had but
little mat experience, Tho3e who
have watched his work the closest say
that he is a conner and will be heard
from in another year or two. 1t is
possible that another match will be
arranged between Hadley and Gro
shen in the near future. Bauman Of
Lexington appeared in the capacity Of
referee. A large crowd attended the
match, there being a big representa-
ton of Hardman present.

Tourist travel is picking up again

much for the fine quality of the roads

BIG WHEAT RANCH
SELLS FOR $4,000

One of the largest realty transac-
tions of the season took place at Lex
ington last week, when Frank and
Jeff Evans, operating under the name
of Evans Brothers, sold their 1880
acre wheat farm to Chas. R. Pointer
and N. A. and w. E. Leach. The new
firm will be known as Leach Broth
ers & Pointer. The price paid was
$35, 200.
This ranch is considered one of the
best in the county. For years, Evans
Brothers have been tilling their soil
in successful manner and they have
accumulated considerable money.
Their ranch is located six miles north
of Lexington.
Everything on the ranch goes in on
the deal and the Evans Brothers will
remain on the place long enough to
put in next years crop. The new ow-
ners expect to take possession about
the 1st of December.
In speaking of the deal, Mr.. Poin-
ter said it was not one of specula-
tion, but was strictly a farming pro-
position. A practical farmer, a man
from the Willamette Valley, and his
family will move onto the ranch. Mr.
Pointer, who owns a large acreage a
few miles from the Evans ranch, will
superintend the farming of both his
old ranch and the new property. He
will make his home in Lexington from
now on, and another family will live
on his place.
Mr.. Leach is one of Lexington's s
progressive business men and was
formerly president of the Morrow
County Fair Board. He is engaged in
the general merchandise business in
Lexington. His brother, N. A. Leach
was formerly in partnership with him
in the Lexington store but of more re-
cent years has made his home in
Portland. AT the present time he
has charge of the Portland Office of
the Kerr-Gifford Company.
We have not learned what the
Evans Brothers expect to do or where
they will decide to locate, but Nor
row county cannot afford to lose such
men as they. Let us hope that they
will decide to remain here.

SCHOOL OPENS WITH
FINE PROSPECTS
Sixty Per Cent Increase in High
Sci,ool Enrolment Over Last
Ycar-Forges viii BE Installed
and Physical Culture Will
Be Given.

The local schools under the super
vision of H. II. Hoffman opened Mon
day with a total enrolment of 300
pupils, the largest first week enroll
ment in wears.
In the high school the most mark
ed mo- ease rs noted. Here the en-
rollment is nearly so, an increase Of
60 percent over the total number en-
rolled for the first week last year.
The increased enrolment is attri-
buted to the many new families that
have moved to Heppner within the
last few months and the great num-
Der of eighth grade graduates from
the rural schools who have come to
this city to take advantage Of our
standardized four year high school
course
New features are being added to
the manaul training department un-
der Prof. Atkinson. Chief among
them will be the new forges which are
soon to be installed. Work in manu-
al training in the second year will be
extensive and the course is proving
a popular one.
Prof. Atkinson will also have
charge of the physical culture and all
other lines Of athletics. The teach
ing of physical culture is a new de-
parture but is considered progress
i've step, since every student will come
in for physical training under this
course.
The corps of teachers in the high
school contains the following instruc-
tors: H. H. Hoffman, superintendent,
Lucy T. Wedding, Marion A. Long,
Elizabeth Schoenwald and Prof. At
kinson in the high school. In the
grades the teachers are Ethel Casey,
Ella Coe, Sophia Burke, Opal Bretz,
Melba Griffiths and Blanche Watkins.
The prospects are considered the
best in the history of the school for
a successful year. The enrolment
will be increased greatly in the next
few weeks as many of the prospective
students and old students have not
yet reported for work.

Oregon Boys and Girls Stick to Club
Work.

Oregon boys are sticking to their
club work much closer than ever be-
fore and many of them are complet-
ing it, says l.. j. Allen, director of
pig club work. Much better work
is also being done and results as a
whole are very good.
Mr.. Allen has just completed a
5000 mile journey in a Ford, visiting
the club leaders. In connection with
the county school superintendent he
visited as largely as possible the
homes of the club members, spending
from three to four days in each of the
following counties: Sherman, Nor
row, Umatilla, Wallowa Union, Ba-
ker, Malheur, Crook, Lake and Kla-
math. He also spent day or so in
Wasco, Jackson, Josephine and Doug
las.
Parents are becoming more inter-
ested than ever before and in some
places he found that the mothers had
organized canning, baking and sewing
clubs taking the ten lessons and doing
the work as prescribed for their daug-
ters.
Many of the members will not only
complete their work in the various
projects but will also exhibit the re-
suits at local, county and state fairs.
Mr.. Allen gave assistance in many in
stances as we'll as inspected the work
and showed how to prepare exhibits
Although the boys are required to
grow but one pig in the pig raising
project he found them growing on an
average from three to four, some of
them as many as fifty or more.
While the season for crops has
been somewhat unfavorable crop
growing has succeeded well especially
for those boys who gave careful at
tention to seed selection, testing it
for terminating power and purity and
treating it for disease,
In some instances boys were found
gardening two or, three acres al
though the project requires but one
sixteenth of an acre. He also found
boys growing three acres of potatoes.
Two acres Of corn, and doing much
more than is required by the rules.
Very few final records have been
made out, since this cannot be done
until the work for the year has been
closed.

SCHOOL NOTES.
By S. E. Notson, Co. Supt,


The new course of study is now
ready for distribution. The teach
ers will be supplied as soon as pos
sible. Teachers should read the
course through to see what changes
have been made.
With only two exceptions, all the
contracts filed in the Office provide for
eight or nine months of school. There
will be very few six and seven months
terms this year. The average length
of term for lst year showed an in
crease over the year before of nearly
half month. 1t is generally under
stood that the legislature will be ask
ed to make the minimum term eight
months, and the prospects are that
such a law will be enacted.
The State Superintendent has again
called attention to the rule of the
State Board of Health in regard to
the common drinking cup. 1t is a
violation Of the regulations for the
pupils to use common drinking cup.
A closed jar or tank of water
should be provided. Then each pupil
should have his own cup. Just be-
cause the Board of Health has not
prosecuted all the violations of this
regulation should not be taken as an
excuse for failing to comply. If one
case of diptheria or other contagious
disease should be prevented by the
combined efforts of the school boards
of the entire county, the efforts would
be worth while. Most people would
agree to this proposition If they knew
