FROM THE PEOPLE
"BETTER THAN PITCH
MEACHAM, Or. July


Editor East Oregonian:
l read a couple of accounts in your
paper few days ago that l just
couldent help writing YOU about. Now
l am poor writer and worse speeler
ding to being sorter short on this edi-
cation thing. But when 1 am reading
l cant help thingin Now the first ac-
count spoke of was something about
"a big moonshine still the Sheriff had
just brought out of McKie Creek in
the mts near Meacham. 1t also states
that they found a lot of good drinking
ticker along with the still, and l did
not see any mention of it in your lost
and found column either. But the
next day you had a little something in
your editorial about where the U. S.
gov wasent doing the right thing by
leaving it up to the individual states
to pay for the servises of the boys that
had just successfully staged a big sham
battle over i'll Europe. 1t goes on fur
ther to state that it was the gov not
the states that they were fightin for.
And after reading this second account
| couldent help thinking what might
happen to the L. S. gov if it was to de-
clare war and all the states remained
nutral. And l also wondered if it
wouldent be easier to pay the bonis
OF what few soldiers that would come
from thinly populated west than to
pay taxes to the gov for a bonis of a
tnickley populated east. Then tried
to guess what would happen to a state
like Cal if it were to delare war on
Japan and the L. S. gov remained
nutral. OF corse it would be different
in Oregon as the native Oregonians
and us natrelized Mousourians could
probably lick them any way So aft
er reading both accounts one follow
ing the other l concluded that probly
the editor must have been one of the
possie that had brought in the still
and being modist American wouldent
want any praise for his services and
forgot to say he was along. Now as
never write any of these omnibuss
letters l am sinin you my name at the
bottem of this so you can have some
idea who it is from. But being as
am subscriber of yourn ask you to
do me faver and tare it of as soon as
youer done readin this. Because while
got good enough name 1 know You
wouldent want some critls to hitch it

bership in Illinois increased from 49,
900 to more than $1,000, and the num-
Der of posts from 90 to 6S2.
While serving with the First Hi
nOis cavalry. in 1894 Mr.. Foreman ac-
quired an active interest in military
affairs. He served with that organi-
Zation during the Spanish-American

came major in the First cavalry. In
1914 he was promoted to lieutenant
colonel, and two years later commits

UNIFORM PRODUCTS FAVORED
Find Better Market, Bring Higher
Prices and Are Handled at Less
Expense Than Others.

Without uniform standards for farm
produce there is no recognized basis
for the business of buying and selling,
says the bureau of markets, United
States Department of Agriculture.
Standardization Of products gives
seller and purchaser a common Ian
guage and a set quality upon which
prices may pe compared and fixed. Ex-
perience has shown that the products
which are sold by grade find a better
market, bring letter prices. and can be
handled at less expense than thOsN sold
without reference TO standards. Stand
ards have already been fixed for many
farm commodities. such as American
Upland cotton, shelled corn, wheat
oats, and for small fruit containers
These Federal standards apply only
when the product is intended for in
terstate or foreign coSlmerce. 1t is
highly important to secure state CO
operation so that the provisions that
apply to a few products viii apply to
all that are offered for sale.

WHITE ANTS lNIURE TiM8ERS
Insects Enter Wood Wherever 1t Comes
in Contact With Damp Earth
and Eat Into Beams.

Winged white ants are often OBJ
served flying about houses in spring,
and are something's supposed to have
come in from outside. The bureau of
entomology of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture explains that
these winged insects really are Matched
inside the buildings, and usually are
to be taken as indicating nests of
winglesS white ants working destruc-
tion in the timbers.
These insects, which really are not
properly ants, enter the wood wher-
ever it comes in contact with damp
earth, and often eat into the center of
an upright beam without manifesting
their presence on the outside until the
wood is entirely ruined, and possibly
a settling and cracking of the build
ing has resulted
The department urges that build
ings be constructed with such fOunda-
lions that no wood touches the ground,
or if it is necessary to use wood. that
it be impregnated with tar creosOte.
Concrete floors should be laid on a
gravel base to prevent dampness and
cracking, and where cracks occur they
should be promptly filled.

WERE OTHERS IN THE FIELD
School Superintendent Learned That
He Was Not Alone in His
Devotion to Fair One.

The superintendent of schools in a
small Indiana town recently persuaded
the school board to revoke its ruling
to employ only single women as teach
ers in the school. At the first school
at which be called he tried to joke
the young teachers. Now you'll all
be getting married" he laughed.
Have any of you been getting any
proposals since the ruling was
passed."
Accidentally his eyes happened TO
meet those Of the young teacher in
whom every one knew he was inter
ested. She thought the question was
addressed TO her and blushingIy an
swered, Just three others besides
yours"
Amid the roars of the other teach
ers the young superintendent made his
exit from that building But never
since that day has he mentioned the
new ruling-Indianapolis News.

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
It IS that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
Of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer This
applies more particularly to a medicine
medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are IN need of it.
prominent druggist says Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, = a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, az many Of my customers testify
No other kidney remedy has so large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's SwampRoot is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism
