BAPTIST CHURCH IS REORGANIZED A meeting of practical significance was held at the Baptist church (the Heights) last Wednesday night, when a set of articles, an adaptation to local conditions, prepared on the basis of the Mosier Federation', was consider ed. The meeting was of interest in the spirit manifested and in the gen eral unanimity on the question under consideration. On Sunday night the church by official vote adapted the ar ticles as prepared and thus made it self a constituent element of the fed eration therein described. By this act a definitely organized form is given to the class of work which, to some degree, has been !i progress during the larger part of Mr. Hargreaves' ministry. The congregation has adopted for its name "Immanuel Church" (Federated), under which cognomen future announcements will be made. A meeting for election of officers will be held Wednesday night. At present Mr. Hargreaves is in charge of three centers working on a slmi lar basis and for the balance of the year expects to be assisted by Rev. Dr, McKee.

The commission, in a letter to the various county assessors, written last February, says: "We advise you that fruit trees, being private prop erty, are not exempt from taxation in this state. You ought to assess the land upon which fruit trees stand with regard to its value. Whatever value is added to the land by its fruit trees being thereon must be included. This rule has been followed in some of the fruit-raining countries and disregarded in others, and we desire now to make this a specific instruction to all asses sors to the end that the property of each county will be uniformly and equally assessed and taxed."
