especially for these ailments and are
excellent. Easy to take and most
agreeable In effect. Obtainable ev-

Hunters Warned
TO Be Careful

Forest Service Bulletin: Empha-
sizing the destruction of property
and human life caused by careless
hunters, warning issued by the
Forest Service urges all sportsmen
on the national forests to use the
greatest possible care to prevent for
est fires and to avoid such accidents
as caused the death of Forest Ranger
Clark on the Cabinet national forest
in Montana last year.
Mr.. Clark was mistaken for bear
by careless hunter, who fired with
out waiting to be sure what he was
shooting at. To show that such ac-
cidents are not uncommon, the warn
ing quotes an estimate of the Biolog
ical Survey that between $50 and
200 persons are annually killed in
hunting accidents in this country and
that this number is increasing. Fur
thermore, it is stated that Is per
cent of all the forest fires in the
national forests are caused by care
less hunters and other campers.

Hail Beats Grain Down.

klamath Falls, Sept. Accord
ing to Fred c. Collman, star route
carrier between this city and Swan,
Ore, Is miles east of here, three
and one-half inches of rain fell in
20 minutes in Upper Swan Lake val
ley yesterday afternoon. Mr.. Coll
man said he knew this because there
was an empty barrel by his house at
the time of the rain and that it con-
tanned that amount of water when
the downpour stopped.
Grain was knocked out of the
heads on to the ground by the heavy
hail which fell at the same time, and
Mr.. Collman estimates that he lost
perhaps 200 bushels of grain in that
manner.
The rain and hail were confined
to a very small area at the upper
end of Swan Lake valley.

mores performances were as fin
ished as they were soul-stirring to
her spellbound and appreciative lis
teners. Loud applause and insistent
encores followed Mrs. Elmore's every
vocal effort.
Not little of the artiste's success
during the evening was due to the
admirable accompaniments of Mrs.
Strickland, who possesses the dis
eliminating good sense-come what
may-of never intruding her instru-
ment into the lawful domain of the
vocalist whose singing she is called
upon to sustain, and, with we'll

really first-class accompanist is, the
world over, rare bird indeed, and,
as such, refrains from seeking the
limelight to the discomfort of her
companion in song.

Mills May Close For Lack of Freight
Cars.

Eugene, Sept. 5.-"We will have
to close both of our mills If the car
situation does not get any BETTER"
said A. G. Dixon, manager of the
Booth-Kelly Lumber Company, last
night. Lumber is piling up and we
can find no place for it. At the
present time we are 116 cars short
of what we ought to have-that is,
we have orders and the lumber on
hand to fill that many cars for i'm
mediate shipment.
There was rumor on the streets
yesterday that the company had de-
cided to close the Vending mills at
once on account of the car shortage,
but Mr.. Dixon said last night no or
ders have been given to that effect.
He said that the railroad company
officials tell him they are entirely
helpless in the matter and that they
are doing the best they can.
