When wt asked Mr. Taylor where his home was he smiled, pulled a couple of puffs of smoke from his trusty 'pipe and said: "Home, home why the -cherry trees are my home and don't you think they make a fine home ladened with their choice fruit? They shade me with their clean branches, the sweet odor of ripening fruit .Nothing will make a marriage happier than a lot of common sense. t n,.r .t. 1 fills my nostrils as I sleep, the morning comes and I am greeted Umm wjieil he call h ',;: uj" with low hnnging limbfl ean'ying their precious, load of fruit '"w'n; "ler tlip eeromony he wants to The neighboring family has an or chestra.

That, my friend, is the kind of a home Cod in His mercy has made for me." The veteran picker stopped in his work for a few minutes to tell us that the art of cherry picking is not generally known and he mentioned the remarkable results constant practice brings. Down on Dr. Doan's cherry orchards at The Dalles Mr. Taylor and his two boys, Joe and John, earned $450 in fourteen days picking cherries. Of course they worked long hours. "P.ut I want to stiy to you," remarked the father of the boys, "we turned in at night tired but happy and contented. It isn't a bad job at all and we like it." Probably two hundred of the itinerant pickers are camped at Cove now, all working in the cherries. The town looksidiko a mining camp and the social whirl is going round and round. Cherry pickers believe in having fun and twice a week Cove has a big dance for the strangers. The natatorium is a popular place and following the day's work the pickers line up to enjoy a bath in the warm water. . Development of the orchards and the automobile have jointly brought about the new profession of the cherry picker atiotheij change in affairs to be recorded on histoiy's pages. know when dinner will be ready.

The promoters of this "sport" pretended that they were merely planning to give a burlesque of real fight ing, but inquiry revealed that there were to be 'cruel and cowardly features attending the performance and that the show was in fact brutalizing a:id repugnant to the American ideu of fair play. There is no room within this country for a "sport" that is in-1 hercntly cowardly and cruel. Whatever the pretense of bullfight promoters, they cannot disguise the fact that baiting a bull ia 1 unmanly, indecent and such poor diversion that it has no place in the category of American amusements.
