HOOD i;ivi:n KINDS XKW Al'I'I.E MAUKKT .Not Sell the Klitliv Output to New York for Excellent Heiuions. HOOD RIVER, Or., Sept. 9. The reportB given out last week concern ing the sale of the Hood River applet by the Applegrowers' Union to Steln linrdt & Kelly, of New York, was slightly misleading, according to an interview given by Manager C. H. Spront, of the union, today. "Stelnhardt & Kelly did not gol the entire Hood River crop," said Mr. Sproat, "but their purchase Is by far the lurgest deal which will be made by the union this year. Our crop has reached the point where It is too inrge for one firm to handle It all. and while the New York dealers would have taken more than they did purchase, their investment ag gregating about 200 car loads, we reserved a considerable quantity of the fancy Spitzenbcrg stock which will be scattered in the larger cities or the East and Middle West, which have heretofore not been allowed to indulge in Hood River apples, "Last year one carload of Hood River apples was marketed In Chi cago and within the last 24 hours we have closed a deal with a leading firm of the Windy City for 20 carloads of four-tier Spitzenbergs. These apples were sold on exactly the same basis ind price as the New York apples, tt'e are negotiating with dealers In many of the cities and will sell a few carloads in a score or more cities, litis Introducing the Hood River pro luct and creating for our fancy ap ples a demand which we cannot fill nit II many more acres are in bear ng here tlinn we have at present This policy of keeping our demand head of the supply and branching ut from the exclusive New York and English markets will save us emhar assinent of dumping a large quantity if our apples into markets where hey are not known a few years hence. "The great problem in Hood River his year will be to get the crop lacked out and shipped in a roason tble time. Many of the best packers 'lave been coaxed away from the valley to introduce Hood River nethods In other districts and we vill need 200 new packers to handle the crop properly. The free packing school will be started next Monday md as we only have accommodations ind Instructors for about CO students. the school will he run for two or hreo weeks. "Prof." Jack Robin ion. the champion packer of the valley, will have charge of the school -md he will have several competent isslstants. A person should be able to learn the various packs in a week or less, but It will tako practice to levelop speed. DEATH OK SIRS. I'ETEUS. Died. At her home In Kellogg, Oregon, Sept. 7, 1910, of a compli cation of diseases, Mrs. Elizabeth Buyless Peters. Mrs. Peters was horn In Washington county, East Tennessee, April 11, 1842. and at the time of her death was aged 68 years, four months and 26 davs. She was united In marriage to the late A. S.

Three of these children survive her; Emma Belle having died In Infancy. Mrs. Peters came to Ore gon in 1878, settling In Douglas County, near Oakland, moving later to Kellogg, the present family home. Mr. Peters preceeded her to the grave some years ago. Mrs. Peters was a devoted Christian lody. identifying herself with the Cumberland Pres-hyterlan- church early in life, bjit later transferring her membership to the Methodist Episcopal church, of which church she waB a member at tl.e time of her death. Mrs. PeterB was a loving, dutiful wife, a kind. In dulgent mother, and a charitable, obliging neighbor. She will be much missed In the community. The fun eral discourse was rendered by Rev. W. K.

Since the treasurer of the United States has been making some reform in bookkeeping in his department there are estimated to be in stock now about $350, 000,000 in I'nited States notes, about $3,500,000 In treasury notes of 1890. $.164,000,000 silver dollars and $1,635,886,511 In gold coin, Including bullion In the treasury. All but the gold coin would probably stand the same re vision as was made in subsidiary sil ver. The estimate of gold, however was reduced In 1907 by $13.1. 000,. 000 and that amount was taken to represent the gold exported or con ; siimed In the arts. The estimates as they stand now fix the general stock of money in the United States at nearly $3,500,000.000.

They 'orget that even the small farmer out In the woods reads the advertise ments and are certain to patronize 'he one who tells what he has to sell; it increases local interest. Ex. Fire originating from a stove flue completely destroyed Jumes Inman's residence, five miles beyond Looking Glass, Friday evening. Most of the contents were saved. The house wus a large one, ceiled inside and out, and the loss is quite heavy. Whether any insurance was carried our Infor mant did not learn. Albany Democrat; An argument in ravor of a non-partisan judiciary. It is sound to the core. 'There ought not to be nny argument necessary in favor of a non-political judiciary. Men loving justice should be In favor of a Supreme Court made up regard less of party. In the case of Oregon's court, Judges Slater and King, Democrats, have filled their positions with ability, and voters who wish to see right prevail should see that they are returned to the bench. (In this J udlclal district tho same argument also holds good. A great majority of he voters will doubtless view it in that way and will therefore re-elect Judge Hamilton and Judge Coke). Tears and laughter will be mingled at the Roseburg Theatre next week when the Bernell Stock Company puts on, for the first time, beginning Sunday night, the famous melo drama. "The Deserter." No expense nor pains have been spared to make it the biggest production the company has yet attempted. Tho play Is in four acta, and each act requires new and beautiful Bcenfc equipment. The story of "The Deserter" Is full of old- fashioned heart interest, with limit less touches of humor and pathos. Bnrr OakB. the hero, Is wrongly ac cused of having killed his grand father. He runs away because the evl dence Is so strong against him, and enlists as a Boldler. Reports come back that he has been killed In bat tie. The villain, In the meantime.

Nonpareil: At the meeting of the council on Tuesday evening last, on motion of Mr. Counts, seconded by Mr. Joslyn, it was unanimously re solved to pay $t:t00 for the Park in the lower part of the city. It Is probably known that we have been opposed to this on the ground that we wanted this money spent in mak ing permanent Improvements on the streets. As a question of Investment the purchase Is no doubt n good one, especially If the streets and other im provements are taken up in turn nnd pushed. to a conclusion. It Is certain now that this money cannot be frit tered away in expenditures that have no permanency, or through other ways. It is a step to do something of a lasting character, and to note (hat the council may follow this up with otlny evidences of progress in city matters. Kl'NDAY AT THE CHl'RCIIES.
