People from every part of the United States and Canada are pouring Into Oregon at the present time at rate never be fore equalled, and there is evidence that travel during the entire colonist period will be enormous. Many com munities are busy sending out leaflets giving the low rate from to or IB points, others have the Information printed at the top of their stationery and on their envelopes, very reader of this papcTshould see that such a leaflet goes In each letter he sends to people at a distance. School boys and girls all over Oregon are doing their part. Remember this rate Is good un til the lust day of April. A most interesting acknowledgement of the apples sent by the Portland Commercial club to King Edward comes In a letter from Buckingham palace, written by General D. M.'Bro liyn, keeper of the privy purse to his majesty, King Edward, to one of Ore gon's best known an most respected citizens, R. E. Brereton. A little extract from General Bro byn's letter is Interesting: "The five boxes of apples which were sent to his majesty arrived quite safe ly and were thought very highly of by the king and others who tasted them. I write to convey his majesty's thanks for 'the fruit. ' Should we all live an other Chrlstir.as, and If you will kindly send directly to me at Sandrlngham a small supply of these apples, writing me a few lines of warning of their dispatch, I promise to bring them to the notice of the king and his majesty's guests assembled at Sandrlngham at that season of the yedr, and will give you a full report of them." Ontario Is determined that the great Malheur project shall be realized. The people of Vale are co-operating with them in fact all the citizenship of Malheur county Is a unit, and there was never better evidence of their progressive spirit than the fact that they raised one evening last week the sum of $2500 In 25 minutes or at the "i-ate of $100 a minute with which to advertise their resources. When one considers that Ontario has only 1500 population, this Is one of the records. Comparatively few people of the Heaver state realize that Forest Grove Is nationally known as the source of Vmerlca's most perfect archery bows. Pacific yew, whkji grows to perfection .u Oregon, Is the material used, and "aptaln F. S. Barnes fashions It with skilled hand Into bows sought by ex perts all over this continent and even abroad. Though almost 70 years of tgo, the captain Is himself a splendid .ireher, and such an enthusiast In his hosen craft that he makes personal trips to the mountains yearly to select yew of the tironer vrnflo oml grn!?!--:he altitude at which the tree grows Is an Important factor. Occasionally a bow of rare accuracy and highest peed Is created, and these are digni fied with names. "Cyclone" - and 'Whirlwind" are famous among arch ers. .
