GOOD NEWS
Many Grants Pass Readers Have
Heard It and PrOfited Thereby

Many Grants Pass Readers Have
Heard 1t and PrOfited Thereby
Good news travels fast" and the
many bad back sufferers in Grants
Pass are glad to learn where relief
may be found. Many a lame, weak
and aching back is bad no more,
thanks to Doan's Kidney Pills. Our
citizens are telling the good news Of
their experience with this tested rem
edy. Here is an example worth read
ing:
Mrs. Paul Costel, els East L st.,
Grants Pass, says: "I was subject to
Inflammation OF the bladder and at
times It caused me great deal OF
misery. The kidney secretions were
very irregular in passage, causing me
much annoyance. Occasionally
sharp pains caught me In the small
of my back. / tried different kidney
medicines, but nothing did me any
good until l began using Doan's Kid
ney Pills. When had finished about
three boxes, that awful misery in my
back stopped and my kidneys acted
regularly"

simply ask for a kidney remedy-get

ON CANDIDATES IN GENERAL.

ON CANDIDATES IN GENERAL.
The distribution of the official
pamphlets telling the dear people just
what various candidates for public
office think OF themselves and their
qualifications, of how they stand for
economy and for efficiency" Is
now in progress. But slogans and
platforms are too often simply made
to get in on. They mean nothing
after election. There is the best kind
Of precedent for that statement OF
fact. The democratic platform be-
fore the last presidential election
made much OF the single-term plank.
1t was subscribed to by one Woodrow
Wilson, candidate. Did you hear
anything that sounded like that GER
tain plank after the votes were
counted? Woodrow as a candidate
and Woodrow as president seem to
be two very different individuals, with
two very different viewpoints. But 1t
was not for the purpose of criticising
Wilson or his failure to abide by his
prediction promises that this was
written. II is only to point to the
frailty Of the candidates promise in
general, and to the fact that the voter
must exercise his own best judgment
when 1t comes to casting a ballot at
primary election time. The fact that
man is seeking the nomination does
not by any means say that he is
either qualified or worthy The voter
can best Judge OF what man may
do as a public official by what he has
done as a private citizen, by his re-
cord for probity and for enterprise
and for business ability, and not by
his verbosity or his ability as a street.

GO AFTER THE CORN TROPHY.

GO AFTER THE CORN TROPHY.
There should be lot of enthusi-
asm put into the Josephine county
corn growing contest this season. A
good many people have thought that
when you crossed the Rocky noun
tains the corn belt was left behind.
But experimentation has proved the
fallacy Of this, and by consistent
breeding OF varieties, and especially
through acclimation, many varieties
of corn have been produced that are
proving the west a corn country"
The Josephine county fair board has
provided beautiful trophy that is
going to be won by the exhibitor who
has the best 10 ears of corn at the
fair. 1t win not require very large
field to get in on this contest, but 1t
might be we'll II prize could also
be offered for yield. This would de-
velop some surprises. The writer
has seen fields Of Rogue valley corn
that yielded better than 20 bushels
per acre as an average. That is more
than double the average produced by
the great corn state Of Missouri, and
nearly four times the average Of
Kansas, which also classes as one OF
the corn states. The average for
the state OF Oregon, covering ten
year period, is given in the govern
ment reports as 2S.1 bushels. Jose
phine county is especially adapted to
the growth Of the cereal. and helped
to keep the state average high.
