Wilfred Harris, a native of Eng
land, who came tn America some
hree y?ars ago and has been a res
ident of West Grant Pass for the
fiast.two years, was the first to mar
ket green pears last season and again
1his season. He brought in the first
us the 20th of May this season. He
limed his garden two years ago on
purely granite soil. He has recent' y
decided to go Into gardening on a
larger scale his vocation In the
mother country and after the two
last seasons here Is fuly convinced
that granite gives far the best re
mits.
Mr. Harris, as well as others who
have been here longer, say that the
granite soil gets warm earlier In the
eison and will therefore produce an
ar,ler garden than the other soils.
Another point la favor of the granite
Is that It will produce a large crop of
vegetables, strawberries and other
small fruits where some of the other
oils wonld have to be Irrigated. As
vtdence of bis claims, Mr. Harris
has pea vines In his granite gardes
four feet tall at the present time.

Those who have Inclined to the
opinion that the granite soil Is
worthless will do well to take notice

FATMKR OF LOCAL MAX KILI.KD
(From Tuesday's Daily.)
E. C. Boeck of this city received
a telegram yesterday evening from
Chester City, la., conveying to him
the aad news of the death of his
father, C. R. Boeck, 84 years of age,,
who was killed In that city Sunday by
a tornado.
The story ta that a tornado struck
that city Sunday afternoon about S
o'clock, demolished about 200 dwell
ings and barns. Mr. Boeck was the
only grown person killed, but four
children were reported missing.
The path of the tornado was about
ten rods wide. It struck the city in
the southwestern part, crossed the
river at a point a quarter mile east
of the bridge on the main street and
lifted the water almost clean from
the river bed. It passed in a north'
3aaterly direction, Just missing the
Charles City college buildings, and
spent itself a few miles northeast of
the city.
CHIXKSE lll ll.K RAHiWAV
OV THKIK OWS
Ad Americanised Chinaman. Chin
Gee Hee, Is the projector, president
and engineer-ln-chief of a railroad
which haa recently been opened In
the Hong Kong lnterland. The
road, which was built almost entirely
by Chinese capital and labor, will
eventually be 40 miles long and will
connect Samkuphol and Sunning,
from the last-named place extending
to Kung Ylck, a newly opened port.
The capital of the company Is
$2,660,000, of which $2,000,000 was
subscrlged by Chinese resident in
America and the remainder by mer
chants of Hongkong. The embark
ment of the whole line was complet
ed In seven months, and the part
opened In January comprises 17
miles. Of the six locomotives used
four were purchased in the United
States, the others coming from Ger
many. The president says that his chief
difficulty In building the road was
in overcoming the obstinacy of the
natives, who opposed the work on
the ground that the smokd from the
locomotives would ruin their crops.
The women of one locality offered
htm personal violence, and other at
tempts on his life had to be repelled
by a military guard. Mr. Chin, who
Is one of the best-known Chinese
merchants on the Pacific coast, re
ceives the munificent salary of $80
a month from the railroad company.
Ho relinquished an Income of $3500
a year to undertake the work which
he la so successfully carrying out In
China.
MANY CONDITIONS
Pl'M, DOWN' HOP CHOP
That ther, will be a very short
crop of hops In Oregon as well as In
California and Washington this sea
son Is now believed by all Interests.
Reports from Willamette valley
yards during the past week Indicate
that those yards which were receiv
ing the host cultivation will not har
vest over 75 per cent of a crop, and
many will not give tnat much. This.
coupled with the acreage plowed up
and others left without stringing,
means that unless something unfore
seen at the moment happens Oregon
will not produce more than $0,000
or 100,000 bales this season. How
over, even this amount Is that many
bales too many for the good of the
price.

$2000 to $8000 to the tou Sam
ples assayed at Spokane ge"i: value
of 8000 to the ton A sac l ie m
s:ied here by O. H- Btnns produceJ
at the rate of $4000, and a later
specimen yielded at tbe rate of
$2000.
These samples were from mines
owned by a Mr. McPherson and oth

properties, and until recently very
little work waa done on them. The
ore vein runs from one to three feet
In width, and the tellurlde Is strati

brought here last week came from
a depth of 75 feet, and from the sur
face to that depth the ore carries the
values stated. An experienced min

siastic regarding the property, and is
confident that It will develop mines
of high value. Oregon Observer.
