STONE. Our people are Improving in health. There has been more sickness and deaths here this winter than usual. It has been the doctors' harvest. Mr. Tucker, who' lives at Hood River, formerly of Peoria, 111., was here on the 20th of February looking for a farm to purchase. He owns 10 acres of Hood Rher land, but he thinks that it takes too long to raise apples before getting returns in ready cash, and land at Hood River is very high in price. After living in old Clackamas County for 26 years, your scribe says that Clackamas County can raise as nice fruit as Hood River and as large size. Pears that weigh from one pound up to two and one- half pounds. It Is hard to do better than this any where else than in Clackamas County. And when you come to raising small fruit such as gooseberries, that grow three and one quarter inches one way and three and one-half Inches the other way, I have the above preserved in alcohol which we can exhibit to any Hood River or Clackamas County clod hopper or any other person. I have a sample of Clackamas County big pears that I can furnish to down easterners, who may come to Oregon this spring to spy out a home in the Oregon country, D. T. Griffith has bought out Mr. Lillle's half Interest in the Mumpower & Lillie saw mill and the new firm is making the saw buzz. Sheridan Lillie is having Mumpow er & Griffith saw lumber to build a barn. Bachelors can have a barn as well as other folks. Since Fred Gerber, the road master, tightened np the Baker bridge, it don't dangle around like It was go ing to Jump off of the foundation. 25 years is a long time to let a bridge go without having the iron rods and bolus tightened up. Forty cents per pound for butter fat at the Clear Creek creamery to the patrons last two months. What other creamery In Oregon, or any other country is doing better than tills. There are several cow buyers around. Mr. Barnett, of Portland, is the old standby in purchasing cows. Charles Hattan sold Mr. Burseth one cow Saturday for $50 and L D. Mum power sold one Monday to Mr. Bar 6eth for $50. The Clackamas egg man comes around every two weeks and pays spot cash, less two cents per dozen, than Portland price. As long as we can have this kind of transportation we don't care to have a railroad here till we can get one built. The company that was organized here to build an electric power plant, has not commenced operations as yet. Different parties have been looking around. Hope there will be something doing pretty soon. Evangelist Sewall will preach at the church on the 17th of March at 11 o'clock. Bible reading at 10 A. M. All are cordially invited in attend ance. State Secretary, Mrs. Mary S. How ard.

Mrs. Minnie Gray has concluded to return to Eastern Oregon. Our glori ous rain makes things appear too lone some on this side of the mountains for her. Mrs. J. M. Austen, who was operat ed on for appendicitis in Portland at the Good Samaritan Hospital, came out from the operation In good shape and Is getting along splendid. The little son of Elmer Lautz un derwent an operation for appendicitis and Is getting along nicely. Only last fall an elder son of Mr. Lautz. was operated on for the same trouble.

George Fox was a merchant at Molalla some twelve years ago, and of course looked familiar to old Mo lalla. FIRWOOD. Remember the debate at Klrwood ball. Saturday, Maiyh 6th. Resolved.

M llltron ha been visiting the county seal this week. Several strangers have been visit ing Klrwood lately. We lto;o lliolr praises ate as honestly felt as they are spoken. ' MOLALLA. Mia Coffee The iromi-tieht can orotects It against impurities and deteri orationnever sold in bulk. Your iTocer will erlnd It better if ground at horns not too fine. Our railroad prospect looks bright er every day now, if for no other reason, because of the "gut there" way of doing things of some of our near neighboring localities, only a lew mnes west oi Here 110,000 was raised full and strong, while old, con servative Molalla was slowly Just passing the $20,000 block of stock. Undaunted "Swift" keeps forging on, to the great surprise of many. Some have to do too much and many too little. I guess a single land tax would be the fairest way of dispos ing of this electric railroad building after all, then all land benefited would have done Its share. Molalla Grange, No. 310, voted In 22 members last Saturday, mostly younio people. A special meeting will be held on the afternoon of the first Saturday of March for drill In degree work.

We see from last week's Enter prise, the jololla correspondent is alternating between nits, ecstacy, melancholia, la grip and other ail ments too numerous to mention Whose besetting sin Is brooding over the slowness of a few Molatlaltes to enthuse over the Swiftness of the railroad.
