Br Junius Spring starts whenever she gets the spring hat fever. A boy who doesn't want to eat things that make him sick is already sick. f Any man can figure out how generous he would be if he had a little more money. "IN THE SPRING" Before we speak of spring itself, we wish to say that . spring fever, which is going to be quite common during the next month or so in the Grando Konde valley, is not explained in tho same way by all psychologists and phy sicians, but without regard to what these learned folk say the people who get it will heartily agree that it is a very real and not exactly an unpleasant thing. Some writers tell us that it is nothing but a luthugic drowsiness, caused by the poisons accumulated 'during the physical inaction of winter. We can help nature to clim ; inalo these poisons by taking long walks, breathing doeply of thsjV3i ik1 stimulttlin&4 ; ing to hoe the garden. j There is reason to believe, however,, that spring fever j is not entirely physical. ..There is a good deal of tho physic .in it also.. It is partly physic insofar as it is a reaction j front winter. Tho contrast between the first warm weath j er and the cold of winter unconsciously reminds us of the sluggishness of the tropics,: home of our prehistoric an , cestors. ' Or perhaps spring fever is an inheritance from ; the limes when the cave man, after a long and monotonous ; winter in his den. strolled out to bask lnzilv in thn wiu-m I spring sunlight. Agreeable as tho gentle lassitude of spring fever often lis, we must not sunender ourselves to it too i readily, for there is more work to bo done in the spriii'r ; than perhaps in any other season, and the man who aban jdons himself to spring fever has a tendency to shirk his 'share of it. With this warning emphasized, we wish to observe that thn rlpliirVif nf unvinrr rmiiwil Im i..j ii :.. jtlien that snp starts risin: in the "trees. Grass up units 'preen. Plant li To hurls.

Farmers , whistle in the fields. Coif Imjrs smack their lips. Kishet i'men go over their tackle. Small boys swarm with marbles, baseballs, kites. ... ; Spring is the time to take a new lease on life, to gel (h fresh start. Kill your lungs with IVesh air and go to it. The best thing about spring is that it is a prelude to an other round of intense human activity. . Kxcept. of course, for the gentleman who has spring fever :Ui.r days of tho year. dom, Mm.

We recom mend when future calls are made for conferences toward u reduction of freight rates, that every grower contribute his mile and his pres ence at such conferences. "We regard the positive refuaal on the part of the rail limn to re duce freight rales on fresh fruits from the pacific north west to our natural market outlet as the great est menace to the farther upbuild ing of this great Industry in ihe Pacific northwest, and feet that the blame for that legalixed .rob bery rests upon lhu.

"The existing conditions in tho raising of prunes show thut in about three or four years both the quality of prunes for fresh ship ments as well us prunes for tho dried product will be doubled.

"4. There Is much complaint some years' from custom consum ers of fresh prunes that the first fruit shipped from some Hccllons of Oregon are poor quality for the reason thut they lire picked und shipped too green.
