BIG FIT Off AT
BY IDEAL Me
MACKSIURO, .Aug. lt.-A few
hours of eastern sultriness came on
Sunday making us appreciate the re
freshing Pacific breese that, so raroiy,
withholds from us it charm. Not long
however dW its oppressive, pres
ence remain before the sun's dediftv,
the wind sprang up with a strongelixi
in the wings and -as usual the eve
ning was bracing and cool. One alloy,
though came with the temperature's
sudden change, Iw rumblings ot
thunder were to be heard floating on
the breexe bringing with them grave
apprehensions for the outstanding
shocks of grain and hay, but Monday
dawned without the dreaded rain ana
the ranchers were early afield with
their hay-trucks. so that before eve
ning fill only stubble was to be seen
in the fields and now. glad will be the
sound of splashing rain, once agalu
making travel by auto and other pleas
ure vehicles one of the summer Joys.
The threshers now come to our ears
from one and another of the ranches
and everywhere the report Is that the
gain Is turning out well
The early apples seem trying to
a." u abundance and quality for
l"e ,ur" """""" va
.'the Winters cold. Most of us can
only obtain from a distance the ap
ples so welcome lu Wintry days. For
table use. however, we need not be at
a loss, th drirs can be kept In use
through all th days, while early fruit
is in its prime and experience has
shown that with less of the costly
product of beet and cane can dried
fruit be made delicious than can fresn.
The long hours of sunshine are daily
bringing a deeper crimson and purple
to the prune and the plum white the
pear trees aer bending uuder a load
that promises to be plentier, larger and
sweeter than ever before. '
The evergreen blackberry which
never fails in abundance is gradually
exchanging its hue of crimson first
and then for the black that makes Us
rlpenesg, known.
It is difficult to Imagine the vine
yards of California, of Italy and of
Spain, producin a more beautiful vine
than that of this humble fruit climbing
as it does to an Incredible height
its foliage of dark green enlivened by
Its wealth vivid red or glistening
black.
Now that the blackberry has taken
on a commercial value by producing
a substitute for alcohol. Its growth is
encouraged on ranches where former
ly it found but little appreciation, ow
ing partly to its being contemperan
eous with an over supply of other
fruit and partly to its inexorable
thornes.
Miss Avis Buchanan, a sister end
Miss Esther Gardner, a niece, of Mrs.
A. A. Baldwin, who have been spend
ing a week on the Baldwin ranch re
turned in their auto on Sunday to their
home in Potrland.

was evident that the cougar which

ary circumstances had board him
coming through the wood and had
stalked at him thinking it was a dorr
or other game. When the man was
seen the beast was evidently eur
prised and struck the ground on the

discarded It because It was too heavy
Ho Is now carrying It and It does not

a reservoir at considerable cost and
from there the water wn lifted to

aud cost too great.
W fer a repetition of the exper

prove expensive and unsatisfactory.
There 1 an abundant supply of water

and gravity would furnish the power.
Thl would coi conlderable but
would b cheaper than to use power
for pumping. The expense of ga or
electricity and upkeep of machinery
together with cure taker would pay
the Interest on sufficient sum to put

Water should be ln sufficient quant
