SAVED
550,000 Farmers Throughout the
World =
Are Saving Millions ; their crop never fails ; tliey have turned their poorly paying
Milch Cows into the
Best Paying Proposition on the Farm
Their phenomenal success is attributed solely to the use of the WORLD FAMOUS
De Laval Cream Separator
It is in a high class by itself, absolutely unapproachable by anything else in the
separation of Cream from Milk. The old-time ranch butter is neglected, unless the
Butter Maker employs a DeLaval. The immense number in use oughs to be a con
vincing argument to the prospective purchaser. Call on us and get a catalogue.
We will tell you more about it later.

President Roosevelt has started
in on that cleaning up process that
a large number os people expected
him to begin wiih his accession to
the presidency upon the death ol
President McKiuley. He has made
a start with the Panama Commis
sion and made a clean sweep. He
has put that institution on a busi
ness basis aud is going to build that
canal on the same piincipal that
private corporations bund theirj
railroads and other works. Graft
is not going to cut a very conspicu
ous part in it. There are several
other departments that will be
treated to the same medicine, and
from the way he has made the land
fraud artists go down the line we
may look for strenuous times
around Washington during the
next pear or two. The president is
winning back many of his old ad
mirers, who backslid during the
time he was holding down Presi
dent MiKinley's unexpired term.
There is scarcely a city or town
in the Pacific northwest that does
not maintain some sort of a busi
ness men's organization. If they
do not it is an evidence of short
sightedness that should be removed
without delay. The value of these
voluntary associations to a com
munity ean not be overestimated.
Organization is the watchword of
the times, and unorganized effort
whether in business or city build
iug, means wasted energy. A
thousand and one things are pos
sible of accomplishment for the
benefit of a community by united
action which would never be real,
ized by individual initiative. Wait

went down to the Hermitage and
spent a very pleasant hour with
Mr. Owens. He is packing his
large collection of curios and will
leave in a short time for the east
for an extended visit with friends
and relatives. Yesterday was the
last time the curios will be on ex
hibition in this city, at least till liis
return. —Homeseeker.
—Sfce werre exhibited on the
streets of Kennewick, Wash.,
March 13, several sprigs of alfalfa
which showed a growth this sea
son of ten inches. The alfalfa fields
are all green and the alfalfa farmers
are all pleased with the prospect.
They expect to cut their hay five
times during the present season.
This comes from the extreme early
season this year. Frank Flint and
wife from Seattle are building a
residence on the land recently par
chased fronting on the Columbia
river. It is the intention of Mr.
Flint to go extensively into the
raising of tomatoes. —Homeseeker.
The outlook "for a very early
crop of strawberries is highly en
couraging. The warm weather of
the past few /lays has brought
out the bl ssoms till the patches
have changed from green to snow
white. It is estimated by those
who know that our first picking's
will go on the market about the
3rd or 4th of next month. The
plants throughout the valley are
in a very healthy condition and the
yield will be heavy. A gentleman
who has made strawberry culture
a study for years was here this
week and enformed a reporter
that he had never seen such a
' promising outlook. He said if he
was not deeply interested in other j
he would want noting better than
a tract of Kennewick strawberry
land. He considers conditions of
soil and climate here for superior to
Hood River or any part of the
Northwest.
