LEAPS STEEP BLUFF Zip Holley, a bachelor farmer, who lives on the Rifle river, near Sterling, Mich., la the champion hair-breadth es caper of Michigan. Every now and then Zip has a hair-breadth escape that would make him rich if he was doing this escape stuff for the movies. But Zip doesn't flirt with death for a million dollars a year, which Charlie Chaplin gets for picking his teeth with a walking stick. One Fourth of July night Zip attend ed Polish dance at which a good time was enjoyed by all, including Zip. However, that wasn't anybody's affair but Zip's, he being unmarried and no body having any right to kick if he went home whooping it up. 4ip nau aone nis snare oi wnoopin and started home in his Maxwell car. It was about 6 o'clock in the morning and Zip was fagged out, as it were. Just south of Rifle river he dozed off and the next thing he knew he and his Maxwell had gone over the brow of rooH Mar.'.. l..n n,k!.k IAS t down to Sam Watkin's corn field. Zip didn't wake up until he landed in the corn field, where the doughty Maxwell, as though realizing that Zip must be protected, sprang about over Sam Wat kins' corn until, so to speak, it could get "toe hold," and calm down, which it did. "I was some Bhuck up, but the car wa'n't hurt," said Zip. This was three hours later when Sam Watkins found him sound asleep in the raithiui Maxwell. "1 measured one fumn of fourteen feet which Zip's car had covered with out making a track after lighting in the corn held said Jay Ames, the local Maxwell dealer. "For a feller like me." said Zin. "The Maxwell is the only safe motor car. PORTLAND BUSINESS IS IN FINE SHAPE The labor situation in Portland re mains at normal, and there are no rea sons outsandimr for expectiner distrnh. ances in the near future. The print ers' union have two new scales up for consideration, and negotiations are proceeding for increases in wages in one or two other lines, but there is no feeling of unrest generally prevalennt among the mechanics. The ship yards are going ahead and if labor strikes can be avoided, there is every reason to believe that Oreeon is entering on an era of prosperity that will not only last lor a period of years. but will affect every section of the state. In the minds of many thinkers it is believed that the world will ever again abandon wooden ships as com mere carriers. A fleet of wooden ships can be builded and operated for the cost of one large steel vessel, if the demand for wooden ships shall continue the Northwest must supply the greater portion of them and in their construc tion a great army of men will be em ployed. Up-state districts will supply the food and clothing and other neces sities for these workmen and their families. Has Recovered Her Health. So many women are suffering from similar atllictioni that this testimonial letter from Mrs. Laura Beall, Platte burg, Miss., will be read with interest: "I got in bad health. My left side hurt all the time. 1 took doctor's medicine, but it did me no good. I took two bot tles of Foley Kidney Pills and I feel all right now." Backache, rheumatic twinges, pains in side, swollen and sore muscles, stiff joints, puffiness under eves, bladder troubles and kindred symptoms are quickly relieved by Foley Ridney Pills.

Shoes made or repaired at Johnien'a COUNTY NOW HAS A NEW ATTORNEY A newborn son a few hours old at his own home was the circumstance that tempered official action of District AttoTeny A. J. Derby Saturday in the case of a boy who gave his name as John Meyers, brought before Juvenile Judge L. N. Blowers on a charge of vagrancy and numerous mischievous acts. Judge Blowers called at the office of the district attorney to confer with him about the case. "I have a new boy up at my house H1IO MlVtllllli DttlU 14DI.1 flVWlllVJ' Derby, "and I don't believe I would feel right Jif I were instrumental in sending a boy to a penal institution or the reform school today." First ten dering congratulations. Judge Blowers lectured the youthful offender, who says his home is in southern California, and offered him a chance to make good. Just before the conference between the officials over the vagrancy case, a party of citizens and county officials, headed by Sheriff Johnson visited the district attorney's office for the avowed purpose of commandeering his hat to be burned on a bonfire, a custom of the old south, Mr. Derby 8 former home, in celebration of the first son born to a family. The district attorney. however, was prepared. As the men entered he stroked his fedora and lead a brief lecture en the evils of waste at a time when tha American nation is marshalling all her resources to prose cute the great war against Germany, He saved his hat. Attorney and Mrs. Derby have three little girls, all of whom have been christened with perfectly proper fem inine names, but to every one they are known as Pete, Jim and Billy.

KEIR, Reliable Druggist. Agent for the famous "New Edison Phonograph" OCDC DC DC DC JAPANESE EDUCATOR STUDIES ORCHARDS Dr. T. Yokoi. a professor of the Im perial University of Agriculture at Tokio. Japan, after a visit with M. Yasmui, a local Japanese merchant who escorted the Nipponese educator, through the orchard districts last week, left last week for Walla Walla, Wash., where he will see how Ameri cans harvest their crops of wheat. The visiting Japanese professor is making a three months tour of this country, studying agricutural economy. He planned on going directly irom Portland to Seatte, but on advice of the Japanese Consul there, S. Akamatu, he decided to study some of the methods of fruit culture and grain ranching. From Walla Walla, Prof. Yokoi will go to North Yakima. While here the Japanese agricultur ist made a special investigation of the methods of cultivation of fruits and the manner in which they were finally prepared for distribution. Japan, he states, is interested in the fruit indus try because of the development of orchard lands in Korea. CULL APPLE PRICE TAKES A JUMP Cull apples have taken an advance of $2 per ton over former seasons. The Hood River Apple Vinegar Co., operating one of the largest plants in the state, has announced that it will pay $8 per ton for orchard run sound culls. The vinegar plant, which turns the best quality of apples into sweet cider, sold in carload lots, and also operates an evaporator, haa increased its grinding and pressing facilities, and workmen are now. engaged in building an addition to. the factory. The new addition, to be used for stor age and warehouse purposes, will be two stories in height. Japanese Ask Advice Desirous of serving in the armies of America, some of the 40 Japanese men of the Hood River valley registered under the war census, according to M. i asm, a local Japanese merchant, have written their consul, S. Akamatu, of Portland, asking that he secure offi cial advices to guide them in their conduct. "A great many of our boys," says the local Japanese merchant, "-will be glad if they are drafted under the American law, but they want to pur sue the course adopted through the deliberations of the Japanese and American governments." Mountain Guests See Aurora Borealis Guests of Uppeir Valley mountain resorts were privileged) a rare treat for several nights last week when a dis play of northern light illuminated the heavens. The first aurera borealis was seen Wednesday evening. The display was first seen by Elijaa Coalman, from his eyrie lookout at the summit of Mi. Hood. Mr. Coalman telephoned to Cloud Cap Inn and the guests, some of whom had retired, assembled In irent of the hostelry to witness the heavenly pyrotechnics. The lights appeared first as a vari colored halo around Mount Adams, TO miles to the north. Later dancing rays shot to the dome of the sky, and the coloring was more vivid than that of a rainbow. The lights vanished as sud denly as they appeared, and the hostel ry guests, thrilled by the display, were left to look only at the glimmer of dis tant forest fires burning off to the northwest of the mountain's base. Forest Fires Annoy Vacationists The smoke from the forest fires in the southwestern part of this county formed an annoyance last week for guests at mountain resorts, and parties climbing to the summit of Mount Hood were unable to see much of the sur rounding landscapes because of the dense haze. The worst of the fires has been raging in the forests to the west of the Upper Hood River Valley. As suming menacing proportions the fire called out a large number of Upper Valley ranchers who aided forest rang ers in keeping it under control. The fires, it is said, have been set through the carelessness of campers. McKAY URGES PREPA RATION BY GROWERS En route to New York City from California fruit points, Kenneth Mc Kay, formerly general manager of the Fruit Growers Exchange but who was recently appointed a special traveling representative of the Northwestern Fruit Exchange, while in the city last Saturday declared labor troubles a ser ious blow to California fruit growers. Mr. McKay warned local growers to be prepared for 1. W. W. agitation here this fall, when more than 1,000 transient laborers will be needed in harvesting the apple crop. "I found in the Sacramento . valley pear belt." said Mr. McKay, "that growers were unable to pick their fruit for lack of help. Potatoea are spoiling in the fields because growers cannot secure help. The situation is very serious, and growers are losing big money, for pears, are selling at $1.75 f. o. b. point of delivery, a record price, and potatoes, too, are very high." Pidtfy Bros. Have Freight Service Jesse M. and L. F. Puddy, Upper Valley brothers, have inaugurated a motor truck freight service between the Upper and Lower Valleys. The young men, who own an upper Valley ranch, will do a general freighting bus iness. making a specialty of hauling apples and wood. The former, who was in Hood Kiver Saturday, says that wood is going to be very scarce the coming fall and winter and it is stated that the price, even in the Upper Val ley, where the supply is great, will be very high. Sheriff Finds New. Use for Corncobs A new use has been, found for corn cobs by Sheriff Johnson, who in addl tion to his official duties operates a progressive West side orchard place. Mr. Johnson uses the cobs as stoppers for the holes in his irrigation ditches, which are bored to feed the rills of his orchard fields. Ordinarily wooden pegs are used for the flume plugs. "But tke corn cobs," says Sheriff Johnson, "beat wooden pegs so tar that 1 will never use any more wood. If for nothing else I would grow a field of corn just to get cobs for flume stoppers." Sheriff Johnson, however, produces enough corn for his livestock, and each year saves the best of his crop for meal. He is accustomed every month to take a "turn" of corn to a local grist mill, where the grain is turned into corn pone material. Franklin E. Foltsv of Odell, nephew of E. T. Forts, who has beea a student at the Oregon Agricultural College, has received appointment to the second officers' training school at the Presidio.
