Portland, Ore., Aug. 13 Europe is going to get a taste , of real peaches irom tne racmc northwest. A car load shipment from Yakima is being prepared for shipment under the di rection of the Northwestern Fruit ex change of this city. - .-. ":T The shipmtmt will consist of a car load of Elbertai and only the best quality fruit will be includeed. Spe cial packing will be necessary in or--der to insure arrival of the supplies in the best possible condition. While the regulation boxes will be utilized, the layers will have a wood-fiber cushion to insure them against rough handl ing and- possible damage in transit 'across the Atlantic. This will be the first time thai arty i real serious attempt has been made by fruit shipping interest to send a big supjT.y of Pacific northwest peach' -.es to Europe. While other shipments, i have' gone forward, they have been i more in the nature of a trial than any J thing else. This will be the first time that shipment will be on a real com- mercial basis. The peach shipment is J not being made to Englcnd because of ' the fizzle of a former shipment by oth er interests, England is not a suit able1 market for Pacific northwest peaches because the fruit is not gen erally known there'. It is stated on every good authority that not more than one out of ten people in England have ever seen a peaih, outsids of a newspaper Illustration. OLD HUNTER RECITES TILE EL KHUNTING IX THIS SECTION PICTURED. Habits of Elk and Their Exciting Chases Told at North Powder. The following story taken from the North Powder News, is a tale of an elk hunter such as one's "grandfathers were familiar with and which was many times enacted in this country be fore the population became thicker. Captain W. F. Haines, who crossed the plains in 1875, realtes the fol low' ? hcocunt of an elk hunt: September 1, 1876, old John Powell, an old time hunter, said to me: "On this day the elk begin to whistle." "How do they whistle," said I. He picked up a .44 caliber cartridge, put it up to hie mouth, and blew in it'a long as he could hold his breath, ami said: "That is the kind of a no'so they will make, about daylight, gen erally. About sunset on a hot dir this lime of the year the sume old bu;k will go to a mountain spring or mud hole high up in the mountains. wh he will WlliJiW liko a hog." When I told James A. PUcJior and my oldest son, 13 yeSH old, old John Powell's story' they wereyery anxious for a hunt. On September 3" W fenced out grain stacks and on the 4tfrjv Pack ed three horses and started, reaching Anthony creek lakes about 4 o'clock, where we ate lunch. Jim and Willy went up the mountain, while I and the dog, Rover, went down on a little meadow, 2 miles from camp. I saw a black spot 6 feet across. That was a wallow. I sat down on a big rock with the gun on my lap, In about' 20 min utes 4 heard a dead pine limb break. I got the direction and saw Rover anx iously looking the same way. I thump - J u : i I- ' .

Naturally such peaches sell at an ex tremely high price, but as the only consumers are the nobility, they can afford to pay the price. There is every indication that con siderable business in peaches will be developed by Pacific northwest Inter ests. After the Panama canal is open ed a heavy volume of business is like-1 ly because the fruit can then be ship ped direct, thereby saving' much time, money as well as loss in spoilage in transit over the present long distance shipment. Local selling interests ai'e working on the theory that a very good busi ness in deciduous fruits can be estab lished with t' tropical countries that no-,v very little of the temperate zones products at this time. This will give a new trade channel for most of the so-called soft fruits of the Pa cific northwest. .and may eventually help to stimulate prices here. Notice to Contractors.

Years Now in fdfty steps of me came a big buck elk in a .KiAst walk, going straight for the mud hcieV 60 yards away. I want ed him. to sttfp,' so I could shoot, and thought' .sure he would do so, but he turned and walkt back in a faster ?ait to within feet of the thick woods, when I sh'of hiSr. close to the heart. He turned towad me tWO( jumps when Rover got between me and the elk and then it ran through the wallow. When a quarter of a mlle'off, Rover barked and I ran to withi'i? 40 yards of him, when he turned to ruii! I shot him within four inches of where' the first bullet topk effect. About 80 yards farther on Rover grabbed him by the leg and was horned off. I shot the third time, striking him in the heart and ran up and shot him in the back of the head, then cut his throat and cut off naff of his ear and put it into my pocket to show the boys, if I ever got to camp, which I did at 10 o'clock. "Ah, boys, I am it; here's 6 inches of his ear ovs nait oi it and ni.i horns have six points and will weigh 7o pounds.' Willy said: "That's my luck; now pap will p-o home in the morning. 500 pounds of meat is more than we can pack home and with the camp, too. ROOM AND BOARD WAtfftfrU--ttl Thursday, first, class only.
