APPLE STOCKS HAVE
BEEN SOLD CLEAN

Although approximately 90 carloads
of apples. stocks already purchased
but held in storage. remain in the
possession of the Apple Growers Asso-
citation, no fruit is available for pur-
chase. Ordinarily at this season of
the year. fair quantities Of cooking
apples remain IN the hands Of growers.
The recent demand for this grade of
apples. however. has fairly swept the
Valley clean. Within a few weeks. so
closely have they sold off their cellar
supply. the families of many growers
will be without apples for their own
use.
Although shipping has almost ceased,
the receipt and distribution Of apple
boxes, spray materials and fertilizers
TO growers make apple warehouses
places of much activity. Shipping
agencies are now getting in berry
crates and cleaning up storage rooms
in preparation for the 1919 strawberry
season. As result Of high prices the
past two years. many new berry tracts
will come into bearing this season.

MRS. BENNETT HAD
SUFFERED Is YEARS
Was in Bed Weeks at a Time Unable to
MOye-NOw Does Own Housew0rk

'For the past eighteen years my
wife was sufferer from rheumatism
in one of its worst forms, said Will
lam Bennett, who is employed by one
of the large saw mills at Redmond,
Wash, recently.
Whenever these attacks come on,
he continued, ''she would get SO weak
and crippled up, that she would have
to take to her bed, where she would
lie for two or three weeks at a time,
suffering untold agonies and unable to
move. Her left foot was drawn up
and twisted so with pain that she
seemed to be permanently crippled,
and one finger on her left hand was
drawn all out of shape so it was use
less to her. Her stomach, too. was all
out of order, she had no appetite, and
although she was just as careful as
she could be about her dieting, her
food would sour on her stomach and
cause her great distress afterwards,
Her nervous system seemed to be shat
tered, and her rest was so broken at
night that she could hardly sleep. Her
arms and throat appeared to be with
cred, the skin soft and flabby, and she
was just about as miserable as any.
body ever gets to be. For years she
had been too weak and ailing to do
any of her housework, and what time
she wasn't in bed she was barely able
to get around.
II consulted specialists about her
case but they could give me no hope
and took her to one of the most cele-
brated health resorts in the country,
hoping she would be benefited through
drinking the water, but it seemed to
do her no good Then she tried all
kinds of medicines, but not till she
started taking Tanlac did she find any
relief whatever After taking a few
bottles of this wonderful medicine we
are prepared to say that Tanlac is the
only thing we have any faith in. Her
last attack of rheumatism was all of
two months ago. and she hasn't had a
twinge since. Her twisted foot is get.
ting back into its normal position, and
that bent finger is getting straight and
supple like the others. Her stomach
is in such splendid condition that she
can eat anything she wants without
suffering any bad effects afterwards.
Her arms and neck are filling out. And
are plump and firm. and she sleeps like
a child every night. She is nov able
to do all her housework, and she is in
better condition than she has been in
many years.
Tanlac is sold in Hood River by the
kresse Drug Co. .-Ady.

Why Colds are Dangerous

You are often told to beware of a

Every cold weakens the lungs, lowers
the vitality and paves the way for the

The longer cold hangs on, the great.

FASTEST TRoTTlNG
RECORDS OF YEAR

Although no harness records of
the first Importance were lowered this
year. some of these had a pretty close
call, and there were many perform
ances in and out of the Grand Cir
cult which established new limits of
speed or stamina in feats of second
airy rank.
Among the noteworthy perform
ances of this kind was the winning
by Lu Princeton of the fastest race
ever trotted by stallion. Cresceus,
2:02 IA: The Harvester, 2:01; St.
Frisco, 2:01 "a; Peter Volo, 2:02,
and Lee Axworthy, 1853, had each and
all gone some great races in other
years, but the white faced son of
San Francisco, 2:G7 ga, eclipsed
them when he reeled off two meets
in 2:02 IA and 2:02 l. in defeating
st. Frisco at Hartford. The best pre-
vious performance was made by Peter
Volo in 2:O2 Il and 2:02 ga in 1915.
In his last race with st. Frisco at
Atlanta I4u Princeton won in 2:02,
2:04 ga and 2:04 IA, placing the
fastest three heat race ever trotted
by a stallion to the credit of this
wonderful campaigner. Etowah s
1908 "a and 2:03 IL constituted the
best previous performance for stall
lion.
The fastest four heat race on re-
cord was trotted at Lexington in Oc-
tober, when the six-year- stallion
Binland won the Pennsylvania in
1908 ga and 2:05 ga after Esperanza
had taken the second heat in 2:03 IA
and Royal Mac the third heat in 2:05.
Etowah was again displaced by this
performance, the little blind horse

alogous to such rule as might be
imagined to originate with worknen
of New York and Chicago. Carrying
out the analogy, such a government
would recognize the political rights of
nobody but workmen in New Orleans
and San Francisco. 1t would over
throw by arms any government in
Seattle or San Antonio which did not
reflect it's own views and would deny
the ballot to all persons possessed of
property. Under such a government
New York and Chicago politicians
would be sent with armed trains to
overthrow soviets in st. Louis and De-
troit which failed to obey the mandate
of the central governing board. Da-
kota wheat farmers and Texas cotton
growers would be forced to surrender
their products to armed crusaders at
whatever price the central soviet Of
fcials chose to pay. Banks and indus
tries of all sorts would be nationalized.
