Ms Heard has visited every Irrigated section r the country and talks Interestingly of the experiences which warrant her faith In Hi rmiston. "My first desire to possess some Ir rigated land," said Miss Heard, "came fiom watching a 640-acre desert claim or rather two claims belong ing to two brothers develope from sand into alfalfa fields from which were cut five crops of alfalfa.

"All that has been accomplished by irrigation in the Yuklma district Is vfiy familiar to all you Oregon pio lie. I suppose but when I saw with my own eyes what had been done i there I wished more than ever to se ture a piece of Irrigable land but at ground floor prices. As I was leaving Yakima I heard of the government project at Hermlston; that It was con sldered one of the best. If not the best and most promising of all the govern ment projects; that the land values were still very low and that there was .'.!! deed land to be bought and A smell n mount to be opened for nr mr trails. I was on my way to Canada, but I made a special trip from .--'eattti. to see this project und found climate, crop prospects, transportation find nearness to good markets; and land values, all to be as r had henrd. "Of course the government studies the waer supply for years before It bir-rins a project. For that reason the possibility to secure water at a critical time In the season Is made certain. Quarrels over water rights are don, away with and flimsy construction ff reservoirs and flumes with the ranse. iiuent high maintenance charg, are also avoided. Added to all these .id vjntacts 1 found a mild winter sim ilar to southern Arizona and n very early spring. I did not hesitate for a moment to Invest In 2S0 acres nea town. Two years have elapsed since then ami I am not sorry I made the Investment. "Your lands are still cheaper, everything considered than anything I have seen lately. I have Just come through Calgary, Canada, and Seattle, Washington. In Canada they were offering raw fruit lands on Lake Ok anogan, for $200 nn acre with no per manent reservoirs and 13 per acre per year maintenance charge on their flumes. At Seattle the lowest offer made me In the government land In the Sunnyside project near North Ya kima, was $100 an acre; water right and maintenance extra. While In Hermlston, your lands two miles nn! further from the rijilroad station are only $H0 an acre, with ten years to pay for . the water right ample time allowed for first payment People who are looking for what I hunted years to get, had better buy now or some day In the near future they will wake up to the fact that Hermlston has become famous as a fruit coun try and that ju ices have gone up. Xo, I'm not sorry I bought land near Hermlston." Afraid of Ghosts Many people are afraid of hosti. Ytn people are afraid of germs. Yet the ghost is fancy and the erra i a fact. If the germ could be mafni6ed to i size equal to iti terror it would appear mora terrible than any fire-breathing dragon. Germs can't be avoided. They are in the air we breathe, the water we drink. The germ can only prosper when the condition of the system givei it free scope to establish it self and develop. When there it a deficiency of viful force, languor, restlessness, a tallow cheek, a hollow eye, when the appetite i poor and the sleep is broken, it is time to guard against the germ. You can fortify the body against all germs by the use of Dr. Pierce's Gold en Medical Discovery. It increases the vital power, cleanses the system of clogging impurities, enriches the blood, puts the stom ach and organs of digestion and nutrition in working condition, so that the germ, finds no weak or tainted spot in which to breed "tiolJen Medical Discovery" contain no alcohol, whisky or habit-forming drugs.
