Contrary to tlje general belief yes--erday, an' excursion will be run to vVallowa town on September 20. This will Inaugurate passenger service in :';at county and though the construc tion train's whistle has heretofore dis turbed the quietude of that ' fertile section of Oregon, It remains for this proposed passenger train engine to ln "eailty to usher In the new era for .Vnllowa county.. Jack O'Neal of the O. R. & N. pas senger service, Is In the city today making dofinlte arrangements for ihf excursion which will undoubtedly be the banner event of the year, locally. The schedule Is such that ample time will be allowed Anglers to hunt or fisli vhne the train is at Wallowa, ana will also give the excursionists an op portunttyNof seeing the section of Wallowa county through which they pass. . The train leaves" here at 7 o'clock in the morning and will return the same night. The fare for the round trip will be $1.75. Several stops will be made en route ind through the canyon. The fish 'tatchery, the Wallwa bridge and other places of beauty , will be cause for Home of the brief stops. This Will per mit anglers . to leave the train, fish "tiring the day, and catch the home- oinlng excursion again. r If sufficient advance notice is given, he officials, ample accommodations will be supplied. At this early date It appears that the event will be large ly attendedas there are hundreds In La Grande who have never seen the wilds of Wallowa, and will Jump at opportunity of being one of. the group to ride Into Wallowa county on the fit t passenger train. 5 OREGON PKl'XE CHOP SHORT. Aiitlirt Ity on Oregon Fruit Snys Priic Crop IIiih Been Cut In Two. Portland, Sept. 7. Secretary Wll ltumson, of the state board of horti culture, returned-yestcrday from Oak land, Douglas county,, where he hnd assisted the local fruitgrowers in forming an organization. . He investi gated fruit conditions In that part of southern Oregon, and found that the apple crop will be somewhat larger than last year and that the prune crop will reach 60 per cent of that of 1907. "Prune growers there -will do pretty well, this year, after all," he says, "as prices are considerably higher than last year. The crop ot Oregon has been eut down one-half by the un timely frosts of last spring, and the yield of California will not be more than a third of what It was a year ago. "The apple yield of Douglas county Is also very good this season, but the buyers are not so eager to load up as In the fall of 1907, when the panic caught them and they lost ' money. They prefer to get apples on consign ment this season. Instead of buying and taking chances' of getting profit after the fruit Is disposed of In the eastern markets. "The fruitgrowers of Oakland and vicinity have organized for the pur pose of selling their output to the best advantage, and they certainly have a splendid fruit country to work In. The tendency Is to buy, up large farms and cut them Into 5 and 10-acre fruit tracts, and I Judge there will be money In this for the promoters, wh will as sist In populating the country wllh practical fruitgrowers from the east and elsewhere." Cured Hay rever anil Summer Cold. A. J. Nusbaum, ; Batesvllle, Ind., writes: "Last year I suffered for three months with a summer cold so dis tressing that It Interfered with my I business. I had many of the fymp- toms of hay fever, and a doctor' pre scription did not reach my com-, and I took several medicines which seem ed to only aggravate my case. For tunately l insisted upon nHving ro - ley's Honey and Tsr and It quickly j cured me. My wife has slnre used j Foley's Honey and Tar with the same' success." A. T.
