The following named person enrolled a members: W. 8. U'Ken, J. S. Hisley, Jo. CaBto, C, F. Clark, George lUndall, C. C. Wil liams, M. Long, I). W. Howard, J. Tomp kins, J. 11. M. Itobbina, J.

U'Ken moved that a committee of three be appointed to investirate the question of otganixing Fruit Grower Association and to procure the constitu tion and by-laws from the California as sociation. The chairman arpo'nted as that com mittoe Messrs. W. S. IJ'Ren, Frank Lee and G. W. Kidder. In order to increase the membership of the association each member was made a committe of one to solicit members and to send their namns together with the fee to the secretary . INSKCTB ANI SPRAYING. The question of insect pest and Bpray- ing to destroy them was taken up and consumed much of the forenoon sesnion. J. G. Si.er asked if the wooly aphis could be destroyed by spraying and H. V. Short in reply stated that In ex perience Willi ims pesi weni 10 snow that it thrived in damp cool places, es- lieciiilly where the sun did not slime, and he recommendod as a remedy free use of the knife in the orchard. He cited a proof of his statement the ease of a tree which grew on the north side of his lions' where tho sun never shone, which when the wooly aphis appeared was attacked and killed by the ieat. Both Lewolling gave his experience in spraying 40 acres of orchard with a solu tion of lime, salt and sulphur and found that it destroyed all pestB, excopt the wooly aphis, and codlin moth. His remedy for tho wooly aphis is to grease the trees thoroughly with hogs lard. For tho codlin moth his remedy is to tie around the trunk of each tree about eight inches above the ground, a gunny sack, then to go around every few days and kill all the moths which have gatherod about the folds and under the Back 11. V. Short stated it as his bolief that insHcts wore migratory and that the present visitation of pests would disap. pear as others have in the past, but tho goneral sentiment of the meeting was that they were bore to stay unless eradi cated by the application of vermin de stroyers. TUB ORAl'B D18CUSSKD. Mr. Walgamot Had a few vines and nrunod niiitn late In the season, and nearly mined hiB vines as the sap ran out and dropped to the ground. J. G. Zinser, who has had a lifelong ex perience, said February islate enough to prune, mot neaaons, though In a late eanon like this March would do, but it may be done a soon a the leave drop in the fall. Grajie vine should be trimmed close leaving not over five buds, three i better; then pinch off bud be yond blotiHomand between bud. Think it best to trim stock not over two feet high. George Karidall had been raiHing grape twenty years, and find the la- bella the only variety that doe well. J. C. Wolgamot find that all varieties do well on the Canby prairie. C. C. William has a fine vine of Con cords which trails over a building and is never pruned. Some year the one vine ha twenty-five bushel. J. G. Zinser said that with pruning the graiie would tie larger, better and firmer, and gave an illustration of a vineyard near Portland of four or five acres, the rent of which wa O00, the labor $300, and the profits over that large, J. A. Chase stated that the company he represents had investigated the mat ter, and their conclusion w as that none but table grape would do well here Frank Lee of the Northwest Pacific Farmer stated that an analysis of the soil of Clackamas county showed that it wa better adapted to grape culture than that of any other county in the state, but that none of the foreign varieties do well here owing to mildew. Several of the American varieties do well however. SMALL FHl'IIS The question of small fruits being broached, Mr. dwelling said that he was testing the raining of small fruits, and had twenty acres of strawberries and ten of blackberries, favoring the Lawlon berry for the latter. Questioned, he said that blackberries should be given plenty of room, say two feet by ten, and trimmed about four feet high. The ground should tie kept thoroughly culti vated, say ten times a year. The ques tion w as asked, What is the life of a patch of berries? To this Mr. Lewelliug said that he planted a patch in 1800 which is in good tearing condition yet. Speakinit of profits from blackberries, Mr. U'Ken stated that $100 per acre was a fair profit to count on when all the work is hired. Mr. towelling gave as hi experience with a single cane of Lawton grafted upon a wild blackberry root. This grew about five feet high with lateral branches about as long, and the one vine produced in one year twenty-three pound of fruit. ABOCT PKUNINO. There seemed to be considerable inter est in the question of pruning and a gen eral discussion ensued. The general sentiment w as that old trees should be closely pruned, due care being taken to shape the tree by careful use of the knife. Mr. Lewolling would trim peaches in the fall and keep the limbs well down. J. A. Chase, w ho has set out 100 acres, cut all trees back at time of planting to two feet high ; then when the branches grew cut them back to eighteen inches. This gives a stocky tree with strong limbs capable of sustaining a heavy crop of fruit. Dr. Casto trimmed his peaches back at planting to two feet and a half leav ing only the one stem, then in August cut the new growth back, thinning out all superfluous limbs. part in the coming World's Fair meeting; and naval review were coming np from the capes, and that they would be along in an honr. Thi was a notification to stand by to salute the visitor after they had fired 21 gun in honor of the Ameri- can color, and tlie ion was prompt in doing this. Many ef the hotel vixitors were awakened by the terrific bombard ment which ensued, and the reverba tion of the big gun of the Blake and the answer that came qoicHy back from the military post and the flagship Phila delphia. Scarcely hail the amolte disap peared from the muzzle of the gun w jen the Blake began a series of salutes to the French, Russian and Italian flags. During these ceremonies the flag of all ships were constantly charming from that of one country to another. The ap pearance which the five British ship presented as they moved past the end of the United States fleet to the anchorage grounds designated them by Rear-Admiral Gherardi, was a beautiful one. that has troubled his orchard is curled leaf, and this he has invariably cut off and buried. D. W. Howard stated that curled leaf is fatal to seedlings, hut that it does not seem to injure Crawfords. C. F. Clark gave his experience with peach planting and favored close cutting. G. W. Kidder favored trimming prunes to an inside bud to cause the limbs to stand as straight as possible as n that way the limb were capable of boaring a greater weight of truit. C. C. Williams gave several examples of seedling peaches proving much more thrifty and nearly as good as the budded fruit. J. C. Wolgamot cited a case where Crawford seedlings had proven most successful, the trees being strong, thrifty and hardy. Mr. Lewolling recommends the Avery peach as being the best peach grown. Getting Beady for May Day. Ciucaho, April 17. Work at the world's fuir is boing pushed with the utmost vigor, and beginning tonight a double force of men will be employed, workine niisht and day. Treasurer See- berger today denied emphatically the report published in somo outside cities that the exposition authorities were hampered for cash to pay the contract ors and workingmen. There is an am ple fund on hand to pay all the contract ors and workingmen. There is an am ple fund on hand to pay all the men un til May 1, after which the exposition will be a source of revenue far beyond all current expenses. The Naval Display rieet. Fortress Monroe, Va., April 17. Be fore 8 o'clock this morning Colonel Frank, commandant of the army post, was informed by Rear-Admiral Gherardi that the British vessels expected to take To Bond or lotto Bond. 1 Washi.notos, D. C.April 17. "Carlisle is understood to be opposed to an issuance of bonds, for the present afc least. It is his judgment that it would . be preferable to ntilize a portion of the gold reserve fund until it becomes apparent that an issuance of bonds was an absolute necessity." Among the officials of the treasury de partment, not the least fuar or apprehen sion is expressed of any financial embar rassment growing out of the gold ship ments. They are satisfied, they say, that the shipments are being forced by those who will be most benefitted by an issue of bonds, and that so soon as the brokers and bankers are positive their attempt to force an issue of bonds is useless, just so soon will the gold ship ments cease. It is understood there is some difference of opinion between President Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle, the president rather leaning toward an issuance of bonds, should the free gold be entirely exported. It is thought, however, that if the present month can be tided over, the financial situation will assume a different appearance. Aitoria'i Railroad Agitatioi. Astoria Or. April 17. There is ft report, based upon what appear to be good authority, that Corey Bros, will pay the liens on the completed portion of the Portland & Astoria railroad and resume operations at an early date. As it now stands, the road is graded eighteen miles from Astoria and a few miles of track are laid. The report comes from Tom Romage, one of the foremen of construction of the road. lie went to Salt Lake some time ago and returned here Friday. In conversation with a foreman of a grading gang, who has a claim against the company, he said said the work on the road would be resumed soon. Messrs. Rera ineton and Walters, railroad men and capitalists of Salt Lake, he continued, were en route to Portland with funds with which to discharge the indebtedness of the line. Then Mr. Remington will take charge of the work and will push the road to completion. Thi Oregon Faclfio'i Future. Boise, Idaho, April 17. Sometime ago E. W. Hadley, receiver of the The only thing Oregon Pacific railroad wrote to Mayor rinney, of Boise, for maps and other information regarding this section of the state. The request was complied with, and in a letter acknowledging the receipt of the documents, Mr. Hadley says of the Oregon Pacific : "Duiing all of its vicissitudes I don't think it was ever so near construction and extension toward the promised land of Eastern Oregon and Boise as it is at the present moment, and I feel sure that if we all put our shoulders to the wheel with a long pull and a pull all together we shall ere long be making the dirt fly in your direction." The fact that such a statement is made by the receiver is thought to indicate that strong parties are prepar ing to take hold of the road with the view of pushing it eastward to a connec tion with the Burlington or some other trunk line. The Flumi Are Not Falling. Washington, April 14. The Oregon office-seeker here are in the dumps, and there is little to cheer them. Thev have been here for some time, and yet very few plums have fallen. Senator Mitchell has been receiving vast quan tities of applications from all parts of the state, and has been filng them. The outside office-seekers, however, will not have the benefit of a republican sen ator in this matter very long, for Sena tor Mitchell goes to Oregon in a few days. The appointment ol a minister to Turkev yesterday was a sore disappoint ment "to Colonel Robert A Miller, who was here and an applicant for the place. The East Alio Suffers. New York, April 15. Advices from various point in the western and north ern parts ot the state are to tho effect that snow began falling last night and Btill continues, with no apparent prospect of ceasing. It is already four to six inches deep. The temperature is down to 30.
