APPLES IN DEMAND
The apples grown in this county
this year are attracting attention and
the merchants who are handling them'
state tnat the growers are taking
more interest in the fruit and in the
packing than ever before. It is be-
nevea tnat ciacKamas county can
produce as fine apples as those of
Hood river. Many varieties are be
ing brought to this market. Many of
the growers are complaining ot the
scarcity of pickers. R. S. Coe, of Can-
by, is hiring women to pick his crop
this year, there being a scarcity of
male help. The women are filling the
bill, and some of them are picking-as
many as the men formerly did. Mr.
Coe has had 300 oushels picked and
will have at least that many more.
The grape season is at its heighfli
and Concord grapes are bringing a
retail price of 3 1-2 cents a pound.
Never before has the grape market
been better supplied than at the pres
ent, time. The grapes are large and
delicious and are finding as ready a
market as California grapes.
This week will probably end the
peach business. Those being brought
here now are mostly from The Dallas,
The peach crop this year was larger
than for years. The lowest price
quoted by the merchants was 40 cents
box.
Tomato plants were somewhatdam-
aged by the recent frosts, but toma
toes are still being brought to the
market. Some are green, but they are
ripening in the boxes. There is a
good demand for good tontoesj,
hich are ranging from 45 cents to
0 cents a box.
The flour market is stationary, but
there are indications of an advance
in price, as some of the mills in the
valley are closing owing to a scarcity
of wheat. The wheat was damaged by
the heavy rains that prevailed
throughout .the valley during the lat
ter part of August and the first of
September.
There is a scarcity of eggs in the
market, and those that are bejng
brought in are selling at retail for
40 cents, the wholesale price being
from 35 to 3S cents a dozen. -
The vegetable market is well sup
plied daily with fresh vegetables for
which there is good demand.

either three bases or a home run. The
field at Fenway Park is much deeper
than that at the Polo grounds.
The day dawned gray, with a stiff
wind sweeping down on the field from
the northwest. This presaged cold
weather. The Boston Speedway boys

TEE GREATEST DISCOVERY.
Can you name, offhand, the seven
wonders of the ancient world that you
knew so well as a schoolboy?
Try it
There were the Egyptian pyramids.
the Colossus of Rhodes, the - banging
gardens of Babylon, the temple of
Diana at Ephesus, and
Well, what's the odds?
Those seven wonders were the work
of slaves done under the lash, and
millions mourned and died to make
them possible.
When it comes to an enumeration of
the wonders of the modern world
that's different The modern world
has not only seven, but seventy times
seven, wonders, nil of which put to
shame the curios of the ancients.
Recently a scientific magazine asked
1,000 eminent scholars and scientists
of the whole world to select the seven
modern wonders.
This was the result:
Among the 700 answers wireless te
legraphy comes first with 244 votes;
next the telephone, with 1S6 votes:
then radium. 165; antiseptics and anti
toxin, 140; spectrum analysis. 126: the
X ray. 111; the Panama canal, 100
Wonders indeed, but there are others.
There's the electric light. Realize the
worth of that discovery which has re

Then note this fact:
The wonders of the modern world
have not wrought suffering, but have
relieved pain and advanced the well
being of the race. The antitoxin which
saves one child from death by diph
theria is worth more than the pyra
mids.
And the greatest of these?
It is not named at all. It is not of

To Cure Snoring.
'At a banquet," said an editor, "I
once heard Jerome K. Jerome make a
speech on snoring. I remember that it
ended with these words: 'To cure snor
ing it is advised that a piece of soa
be dropped into the mouth of the snor
er. The oil in the soap will lubricate
the pharynx and other Latin parts of
the throat.' This remedy must be ap
plied with caution; otherwise the snor
er will arise and lubricate the floor

soap.' "

ELECTRIC LIGHT is the most suitable for homes,
offices, shops and other places needing light.
Electricity can be used in any quantity, large or
small, thereby furnishing any required amount of light.
Furthermore, electric lamps can be located in any place
thus affording any desired distribution of light.
No other lamps possess these qualifications, there
fore it is not surprising that electric lamps are rapidly
replacing all others in modern establishments.
