Sixty per cent of the crop Is Yellow Newtowns ami. in normal times, 65 to 70 per cent of this variety Is exported to for eign countries.

Pear Output Also Heavy. The valley also produces from 7nn.iHi0 to 1.00H.UOO boxes of high grade pears each year, the main varieties being Hartletts, Anjotis. Hose, Cornice, Winter Nellis, and Kasters. From five to six thousand tons of Bartlett pears are canned In Hood River each season, and other varieties, known as winter pears, are sold in fresh fruit mar kets.

The star Is dimmed that lately shone ; 'Tis midnight: In the garden now. The suffering Saviour prays alone. 'Tis midnight and from all ro moved. The Saviour wrestles lone with fears; B'en that disciple whom lie loved, Heeds not his Master's grief and tears. 'Tis midnight and for other's guilt The man of sorrows weeps in blood; Vet He that hath In anguish knelt; Is not forsaken by Ills God. Tis midnight and from heaven ly plains Is borne the song that angels know, Unheard by mortals are the strain. That sweetly soothe the Sav iour's woe. (William B.
