Indication Point to Heavy Yield In
Vicinity of Milton.
Milton- Keara that the fruit crop in
tho Walla Walla valley had been injur
ed by Kin frost aeveral day ago have
been generally dispelled by the careful
investigation of the orchard and vine
yard In this vicinity. In some place
near the state line strawberries and
prune were injured some, but the dam
age is not considered to be of great vol
ume. Apple orchards, which were in
full bloom at tint time of the frosts,
were Injured in no way.
Indications now point to a heavy
fruit crop in thu vicinity during the
coming season. Although the peach
crop will amount to but a small per
centage of Its usual volume, other
fruit wilt be harvested in bountiful
quarititiea. Thu careful pruning,
spraying and cultivating of vineyards
and orchards have had much to do with
the excellent crop, which are now as
sured in the year 11)09.
shippers and warehouse men are
making preparations to handle large
quantities of all kinds of fruit. The
first strawberries are expected to be
on the market within two or three
weeks and from then until the apple
crop is harvested, Milton and vicinity
will present a scene of lively activity
in the fruit business.

Federal Body Take Action in
York Gown Importations.
New York, April 21. Further inves-
tigatidn of the systematic smuggling
of Paris gowns into this port led the
customs officials to declare that the
syndicate probably had smuggled in

the government out of $600,000 an
nually in customs duties.
Efforts to avora criminal prosecution
and to shield from publicity the prom
inent women for whom the ?&i,ouu
worth of crowns recently seized were
intended resulted in the offer by repu
table attorneys representing anonymous
clients of $260,000 to the government
to drop the investigation.
