A Valuable Fruit Paper. As fruit is rapidly becoming the lead ing industry oi the Northwest, an d as this county can easily get to the front ranks if the farmers will only take hold and push things, we have made arrange ments to do far more than our share toward pushing the county forward in this respects and will do more if the farmers will show the proper spirit of enterprise. There is now published’ at Portland, not only the most valuable, but the only fruit paper in America which admits no reading matter to its columns except that relating to fruits— their culture, care, marketing, etc., pre sented in such a form by prominent fruit writers of the Northwest and Amer ica that none can read and study it with out liecoming proficient fruit growers. We will give this fine 32-page paper free for one year to all subscribers of the A dvertiser who will pay their back sub scription and one year in advance, or to new subscribers who pay one year in advance before July.
