have the material on the ground to
build a wood house, and the first
thing the people of Jackson county
know they will learn that Derby has
a new and commodious schoolhouse.
They have a store already and peo
ple are beginning to realize that the
foothills are good orchard land. Mrs.
Hume Is teaching the Derby school.
E. S. Wolfer, the strawberry man.
Is kept busy In his strawberry field
tending the plants and gathering the

strange. The Idea of having ripe
strawberries here In November, but
he keeps the Sunnyslde supplied and
noils quite a lot to outsiders from a
distance. Ho remarked the other
day that he would be able to dispose
of all of his plants this fall, as he

at the Sunnyslde hotel and were so (
favorably Impressed with the sur-1
roundlnKS that they decided to locate ;
here If they could find a place that
would suit them. They wanted to
rent small places where they could j
have water to Irrigate or buy if the
terms were such that could be with-,
In their reach. Thus this coinmu- j
nlty Is gradually filling up with peo- !
pie of the right eland. Among the!
first things after the price of land
they asked was about churches and
schools, and although there Is rot
regular preaching here now, It Is ex
pected In the near future. Then there
l as good a school here as one would
wish for. Professor Henry Is prin
cipal and Miss Burtlcy Peachcy Is
primary teacher. She told me last
evening that If there was many more
came In her room she would have
to have an assistant, so It can be
een that the good work Is going on.
