To those who think the fruit Indus try 1 overdone it Is but right to re late a atorv of the war which hns 1tmt developed Into a complete cycle from the tree to the purea, J. B. Stoddard, who has a fruit ranch Just out of La Grande, was called upon for pears to aid in filling a shipment to Canada. He picked 300 boxes from 68 trees tow-' thirds of an -acre and received for them 1.75- a box. Thus you see two thirds of an acre right here in Grande Konde fruit belt brought the owner $525.00. . " ' Is there any place in all the world you can beat it? Is there any line of work that could be more pleasant than raising choice fruit? Is there anything you could be prouder of than A modern orchard, sucfo as Mr." Stod dard takes pride in owning. There is lust one word to add. No one cau question the fact here related, but no one should road this and imagine he can do the same thing without honest application to his work. Fruit grow ing In this valley is the sams as it is In other choice fruit sections re quires constant and earnest attention. The dav never was when fruit would grow like "Topsy" said she grew. No, a good fruit tree is a noble work of both God and man. Nature gives it th start but it is up to man to use all scientific knowledge obtainable to Increase the 8'ze and quality of the fruit We have the place right ftere in the Grande Ronde valley to reproduce as good fruit as grows If people, who own fruit land would only make it a business and left after it. A MOVE FOR HIGHER THINGS . Too much praisa cannot 13 given the effort now being made to get Beatrice Dlerke to give La Grande a date this month. Sh.3. is one of the grandest musicians of today and her visit on this coast is causing much splendid com metn from those who are educated along the higher musical Hues.. - ' .. :i 5 If it proves possible to obtain this great artist for one evening La Grande people can count themselves lucky Indesd and every musical circle in the city will benefit by her concert. It speaks well for this city to be in the market for such talent and It msans one gr?at artist wll follow another here. Nothing could be more satisfac tory than to have La Grande known all over the coast as a-city apprecia tive of the better things musical.
