A Sketch of One of Its Fruit Farms. The Valley Is Full of Plenty of Them Just Like This One. Jaokson County contains many model fruit farms and the ekelch given bolovr will apply to tbom all, by merely changing the figures as to acreage and number of trees, all the other fuels and figures being prac tically the eamo. By invitation of Rev. J. Merley a representative of Tub Mau, made a visit to his fruit farm, which is in the Orchard Home district, one mile southwest of Medford. Rev. Merley has forty-acres in his farm, moBt of the land being to fruit. Ap ple, pear, cherry and prune are the principal varieties grown by Mr. Merley. He also has a fine almond orchard that has proven quite profitable for the few yearB that it has been bearing. His apple, pear and prune trees, notwithstanding that he had put in over ' a month thinning out the fruit and had taken off more than half the crop, were yet so heavily loaded thst their limbs were bending low under the weight of the fruit. When thinning he found one apple twig with ten perfect applos on one blosBom stem, and on one cherry twig three and a half inches long forty-nine fine cherries grew to maturity. A per son who bos never seen a Rogue rtvor valley cherry tree in full fruit can not believe the figures as to the quantity one tree will produce. From thirteon trees, but seven years old, Mr. Merley has this season sold over 1200 pounds of cherries. At five cents per pound, the price he was paid, would make an acre to such trees bring in 1432 and the same orchard at maturity would bring in over $600 per acre. In proportion to the labor to be ex pended, apples and pears are equally as profitable as arccherries so it can be seen that there is money in a Jackson County orchard. Rev. Merley's trees are all healthy and thrifty looking as youug cotton woods and his orchard is cultivated until it looks like a garden, but the big yields of fruit that he gathers fully repays him for his work. Orchard Home, the district in which Mr. Merley is situated, is one of the most delightful spots in Jackson County. The land is as near level as it would be for perfect drainage, the soil a rich loam and the water supply abundant and of the purest quality. From there a view of panoramio beauty con be had, for Rogue river valley is spread before one, a panorama of rare beauty. To the north historic Table Rock shows up, with Medford in the nearby foreground. To the east the. Cascade mountains with Mt. Pitt in its glistening white mantel of snow, and to the south Wagner butte in its rugged beauty can be seen. The people of that district are industrious, intellectual and neighborly to a degree seldom found in a farm community, and a person wishing to settle in a com munity where the highest order of Amcrloan rural life prevails, fit) better place could be found than at Orchard Home. Finds Way to Irtve hong. The startling announcement of a Dis covery that will surely", lengthen life Is made by Editor O. H. Downey, of Chu rubuaoo, tnd. "I wish to state," he ...iiai "Hint nr.

' Holds Up Farmer and Hla Family and Obtains Clothing and Provis ions and Then Borrows (7) a Jap anese Fisherman and His Boat Is Making for Olympla and Chances for Final Escape 8eem to Be Get ting Better Rap'dly. Seattle, July 7. Harry Tracoy, thu OreRon lenprnUi, has croHued I'uget sound. Ha helJ up a farmer and his family at Madov Point, obtained clothing and piotislons and then Irn presned a Japanese fisherman Id his boat. The out'dw was landed near Port Madison and there forced food and clothinK from another family. Then he compelled a hired man to take him away In a boat. It is be lieved that he fill attempt to cross Hood's canal ond roach the wild and almost unexplored Olympic mountains In Western Washington. Government boats and a dozen armed posses are In pursuit. If ha !s not captured be-fore he reaches the Olympics it Is improb able that he ever will be taken. 8eattle, Wash., July 7. Harry Tracey has bear: heard from again. Since his escape from the officers of the law at Seattle he has committed no murders so far a known, but has been engaged in the comparatively mild oc cupation of holding up farmers for food and clothing and Impressing boat men. He has been enabled to cross Puget sound and Is In a fair way to make his escapo Into the almost Irn p.netrable mountains of the Olympic range, where there would be no hope of his capture. The latest report Is that he had landed near Port Blake ley, but It has Loi. been verified. This criminal cf criminals Is now pursued by United States revenue boats, by the officers of two states, the sheriffs of five counties and a small army of armed civilians. The state and county officials are being aided In their search by the United States revenue cutter Grant, the tug Sea Lion and tho United States launch Scout of the revenue cutter service, and several smaller tugs. Though hard pressed and hunted through the wool's back of Ballard and around Woodland Park, Fremont, Ra venna and Botlieli by from 100 to 309 men, Tracey en-aped their vllllance and is now almost to a certainty In the hoavlly timbered country back of Port Madison. Tracey held up the family of John Johnson Saturday night, and after spending more than six hours In the house made good his escaype from the town in comp,ii.y with John Ander son, a hired man of the Johnson fam ily, whom he hao impressed into' serv ice. The outlaw again obtained a complete change of clothing, but took the articles of clothing he wore with him. Tracey used Johnston's boat, a white craft fourteen feet long. Prom the direction and the movements after he rowed away the Port Madison peo ple believed the fugitive convict was headed for the Hood canal country. The cutter Grant and launch Scout Were Immediately sent out from Port Townsond. The two vessels took nboard a posse under Sheriff W. C. Hammond, composed of men who are especially selected for service in the n-oods. Sheriff Hammond Is one of the most experienced woodsmen In this part of the country. The government vessels proceeded lo Seabeck to prevent Tracey's escape to the coast by Hood's canal and the Olympic mountains. At a late hour Sunday retafonno At a late hour Sunday afternoon a report was received from Ludlow to the effect that a small skiff was seen between Foulweather Bluff and Lud low Head, crossing rapidly. The skiff was too far off to be distinctly seen. Still later the sheriff's force at Ev erett telegraphed that a white hulled launch was sighted off Compvllle at 6:30 o'clock this afternoon with only one man, supposed to be Anderson (with possibly Tracey lying on the bottom) in sight. The boat "all8af ed to be heading for- Daceptlon pass. Dep u(leg Were dispatched, all heavily Krmed, on a small naptha launch for. the pass, and a few minutes later the marshal at Anacortes started with a tug for the pass. Under Sheriff Corcoran believes Tracey has accomplices In Seattle. A message received from Walla Walla Sunday aftornoon states that Guard Carson of the state penitentiary has left for Seattle with, two blood hounds and should arrive here at I o'clock today. One of these blood hounds was In the pack that hunted Tracey In Oregon. The other la a fe male that has not yet been used on a man hunt, but Is considered better than either of the dogs tried several weeks ago. -The Mail has the news. Apple Crop of the United States; The average condition of the apple crop of the United States as a whole,' aa shown by the June reports made to the U. S. Department of Agri culture is unfavorable.
