FRUIT, GRAIN AND TIMBER &Cew Territory on North Bank of Colombia 'Will Be Developed ny ew Railroad and Made j Tributary to Portland. TARPON". Wash.. Oct. 25. (To the -Editor.) Having; spent my entire time at Countj- Falra during the two weeks ly.8?t. attending onr County Fair at IFIevenson and at The Dalles, the ween 'rctnning; October 5 and four days last (week at Hood River. I feel more than :ver Impressed with the future possf bliities of the Columbia River gorge and its tributaries. At Hood River I iput up and handled the Skamania (County exhibit. The task of collecting i. fihihtt waa no small matter, at tended, as it was, with all sorts of 'difficulties, as Is always the case in a Iregion where horticulture Is practically unknown. Where the pruning nook iand the spray pump are not used, and the orchards unplowed for years. Such of your readers who are familiar with Hood River and Rome River methods will, readily understand the handicap under which 1 was in gathering and displaying alongside of the Hood River product the very nest appie m world. With this preface, let me say that Skamania County, for variety of prod ucts, beat anything under the great big tent of tlif l(i boxes of peerless apples. We showed them without irri gation and vtry little cultivation: Onions, potatoes, com on the atalk, corn on the ear, ripened oiT and corn In the glass Jar. We showed apples of the following varieties: Yellow Newtowns. Spltaen bergs. Kavs. Northern Spies. Tellow BWlflowcr. Hen Davis. Blue Pearmalns. Wolf Rivers, and also some seedling apples. By close comparison. It was observed that orchards along the noith bank of the Columbia, from Stevenson eastward, are In the color belt. We had popcorn, chestnuts of the American sweet variety; English wal nuts, oats in the sheaf, timothy, redtop, red clover, pumpkins and squashes that weighed .r pounds and better. From the map. embracing the Co lumbia gorge you will see that Ska mania County has a river fiontage of more than 40 miles, embracing I'nder wood on the east, then Cooks. Drano. House Valley. Collins. Carson. Steven eon (the county scat. Cascade. Butler, Cape Horn and Mount Pleasant on the west. We boast of one snow moun tain and half of another. All of St. Helens and one-half of Mount Adams. We have J13.000.000 worth of raw ma terial In our virgin forests. Wind River Valley alone, of which Carson Is the gateway, having .00n.0 worth, ac cording to a conservative estimate of a Government timber cruiser. Skamania County Is the home of several hot min eral springs, where thousands of people annually seek and find relief from va rious aliments: Carson Is the possessor of two of the springs We now have an enthusiastic and Intelligent County Horticultural Asso ciation, through the efforts of which our initial Fair was pulled on during the second week of this month, to the credit of the exhibitors. This encour aged a few enterprising citizens to 'place an exhibit at Hood River, of which every Skamania County citizen who saw It is proud. The people of our county are now very much In earnest, and a new era Is dawning for us. We are only f0 miles from Portland, the coming city of this great and giowing Northwest. Our commercial advantages are so closely allied with Oregon and Port land that we are only Washlngtonlans In name. With our enviable location and excellent transportation facilities. It requires no prophetic finger to point to a time In the not distant future when thla county shall grow Into commercial Importance. Portland receiving the in direct benefit. ROSWF.I.L SHELLEY. PROMISE ARTESIAN WATER 2oople of North Yakima to Be Given Ample Supply Soon. NORTH YAKIMA. Wash.. Oct. RICH RESOURCES Special.) Artesian drinking water for North Yakima at the rate of 1.0.10. (00 gallons a day is promised to North Yakima before the beginning of the new year by Jesse H. Rose, of Seattle, who recently sunk an artesian well In the west side of the city at a cost of $32,000. ' Mr. Rose says that by December 1 he will have 100 men at work laying pipes and that lie expects to spend J100.O00 In the proper Installation of his water system. He has a franchise granted lilra by the City Counrll some months ago. It is not his purpose to furnish water for Irrigation but only for household use. There are many cases of typhoid In North Yakima this Fall, and while it Is not certain that the city water is responsible, there has been considerable complaint about it lately. Recent analysis of the water furnished the city tty the No, thwest t IJght Water Company taken from the Naches River were made at Olym pia and showed an excessive amount of xiecaytd vegetable matter. Members of the Council are considering the ad visability of asking the water company to put In a filter at the intake. CREAMERY FOR SHELBURN Construction of Building With Con crete Foundation Begun. ALBANY. Or.. Oct. 25. (Special.) A big creamery Is being erected at Shel burn. the Intersection of the Corvallis Eastern Ballroad and Woodburn-Na-tron branch of the Southern Pacific. Stanley Taylor, formerly of Murphy. Jo sephine County, has- purchased from J. W.

The transfer was completed Tuesday and Taylor has begun work on the building. He will erect a large structure with a concrete foundation. Taylor has had considerable experience in operation of creameries and will con duct an up-to-date plant. .lr. Ireni's Nerve Tonic Tablets at Ejroell s Pharmacy, 2S9 Morrison. INDUSTRIAL GROWTH SPECIMENS OF PEEFECT APPLES GROWN IN LANE EUGENE, Or., Oct. :5. (Special.) This photograph shows a few of the varieties of apples that are grown In Lane County and which reliable fruit men claim will make this section a reputation If more growers give apples the proper attention. The varieties are the King. Spitxenberg. Baldwin and Gravensteln. and were raised near Eu gene on Fpuit Inspector Beebe s farm. The fact that the few men who have devoted their attention to apple-raising here, using discrimination in tho, vari eties grown, have produced the finest tvpe of apple, is the basis upon which the claim Is made that, with the atten tion that Hood River and Rogue River growers give their fruit, the apple here could be grown to quite the same de gree of perfection. LEWINTON FRC-IT ATTRACTS ATIEXTIOX IX POllTLAXD. .Select Varieties, Raised by Robert Schleicher. Form Striking Ex hibit in Local Show Window. A notable exhibit of grapes Is that now In place In one of the display windows of Olds, Wortman & King. The exhibitor is Robert Schleicher, of Lewlston, and the grapes were grown on his ranch near thnt city. A promi nent place In the display is given to the variety known as the Rammonia. This is ' one of the largest grapes grown and Is also the best keeper. It s a native of Algiers and was fur nished Mr. Schleicher by the Depart ment of Agriculture. Other varieties shown are the Flaming Tokay, which is grown more extensively than any other grape in Iewlston Vailey vine yards. This gTape Is used In the manufacture of Idaho wine. Specimens of Carnichon and Emperor grapes are also included In the display. Mr. Schleicher has. been engaged in grape culture during the past 21 years and is considered an authority on the subject. He Is a correspondent of the Department of Agriculture and re ceives samples, for experimental pur poses, of grapes shipped to the depart ment from all parts of the world. Grapes grown by Mr. Schleicher won 18 prizes among 800 competitors at the St. Louis Exposition. Prizes have also been awardea his exhibits at all other National expositions. Recently the Lewiston Commercial Club and prominent fruitgrowers In that vicinity engaged Professor .Twlght. head of the Department of Horticul ture and Viticulture in the University of California, to visit Lewlston period ically and advise them concerning the care of their orcbards. Professor Twlght Is a graduate of the Univer sity of France and has traveled ex tensively through the fruit sections of Europe and Northern Africa and Is thoroughly Qualified to pass upon mat ters pertaining to the culture of fruit. WILL PLANT MUCH -WHEAT Klamath Farmers Kejolce Because of Recent Heavy Rains. KLAMATH FALLS. Or.. Oct. 25. (Spe cial.) Splendid rains fell the! past week on the valley lands of the Klamath Ba sin, extending to the Big Butte Valley in California also, being the first moisture of any consequence to fall over the region of Klamath County, Oregon, and North ern Siskiyou and Modoc Counties, Cali fornia, since June. Great benefit will be derived from the rain by Fall-sown grain, and it has also put the ground in excel lent condition for plowing, and with con tinued favorable weather there will be a ELGIN'S NEW PUBLIC E f : E BRICK AMD STONE STRICTIBE RECENTLY KRE11HD AT OF S.2OO.0OO- ft : , fx & kih-V I TiiV ' ' "'''! t r" ' ' ' V .. ' '"' cli , A dmJ' vast amount of land preparation done this year for Spring crops. There will be a great Increase in the acreage sown to grain and other crops next year, owing to the extension of lat erals and enlargement of the irrigation system accomplished by the work of the season of 1!"08. for which clearing has been in progress throughout the year and is still under way. There are? thousands of acres in sagebrush now that will be plowed and seeded the coming Spring. All of this work will be greatly facili tated by the thorough wetting the ground has had, and which was much needed. SHIPPING APPLES TO EAST Larger Part of Yakima Crop Has Been Contracted For. XORT YAKIMA. Wash., Oct. 25. (Spe cial.) Despite tlie fact that the apple crop of the Yakima Valley this year is the largest in f:s history.", there is little likelihood that much of the fruit will re main in s tor ape in North Yakima. With a lan?e pnrt of the crop not yet harvest ed, fully half has been sold, Roing" to New York. Chicago. -Minneapolis and other dis tributing centers. Several North Yakima appl?growers ex pect to enter the contest at the Spokane apple show for first growers of apples In the Pacific Northwest. There are trees on the ranch of J. J. and Wallace Wiley In the Ahtanum known to have been planted as early as 18G8. J. P. Marks and La. D. Morris planted trees in 1870. while I). E.

Wash., Oct. 25. (Spe cial.) The realty market in this sec tion is on the Jump. Several small acreage tracts and one or two larger ranches- near this- city having changed hands in the last few days and all at topnotch prices. In this city property Is changing hands rapidly and at prices that were never asked before. People are constantly coming to Montesano and. as there are no vacant houses, these have to buy a place. Cabbages Yield $1800 an Acre. NORTH "YAKIMA. Wash., 'Oct. 25. (Special.) Six hundred dollars from, a third of an acre of cabbages is the profit reported by Frank Jordan on his ranch near Priest Rapids. 21 miles from North Yakima. This figures up at the rate of I1MM an acre, and the land Is not under an irrigation project either, but is watered by springs. Mayor France to Tour Europe. ABERDEEN. Wash., Oct. 25. (Special.)

A IN PACIFIC NORTHWEST COUNTY ORCHARDS PATROL TO GUARD DITCH WATER TCRKED IX MAIN" CAXAL OF IMATILLA PROJECT. Plenty Assured for Dry Season and Breaks in Canal - Are No Longer Feared. PENDLETON". Or.. Oct. 25. 'Special.) To the settlers on the Umatilla project and the citizens of the town of Hermls ton, the opening of the head gate to the main feed canal Friday was an event second In Importance only to the formal opening of the project last Spring. The water turned in Is the first that has run through the main canal since last June, when several washouts In suc cession made it necessary to shut the water off entirely and line the canal for a distance of a mile with concrete. This work was only recently completed. This early completion of the repair work and the fuming in of the water. Insures an adequate supply for the set tlers on the project. Though It will be several days yet before , a full . head of water is running in the canal. It wlil require only 100 days to fill the mammoth Cold Springs reservoir.- Barring unfore seen contingencies this will be done early In February and from. that time on till about June 1 or until the river becomes so low that water can be no longer taken from It. the settlers will- be fur nished with their water direct from the main feed canal. The storage water In the reservoir will, therefore, be kept for use during June and the dry months following. As the reservoir will hold water enough to cover every acre included In the project, to a depth of " three feet, and as only one-third of the project Is now open, there will be.no scarcity of water on the project next season. In order that adequate protection might be afforded from loss 'in the fu ture, two ditch riders and a gatekeeper will be employed at all times. The gate keeper will live at the head gate and one of the ditch riders will ride along the banks of the canal during the day and the-other at night... The contract has already been let for the erection of the house for the keeper to live In and stables for the horses of the ditch riders. -A private telephone - line will be In stalled along the line of the canal, with frequent stations, so that in case breaks are discovered the gatekeeper can be notified at once, and thereby enabled to shut off the water supply Immediately, thus preventing damage to crops and further damage to the canal walls. When the ditch broke, last Spring, a part of the O. R. & N. railroad track was washed away.- The bottoms and sides of the canal at that point have been lined with cement and It is not believed any further trouble will be experienced there. DEPOT CONTRACTS ARE LET Work to Begin on Wallowa Struc ture Within Few Days. W.U.UIWA. ' Or.. Oct. 26. (Special.) Preparations for the Wallowa depot are being made rapidly. Contracts have been let for three depots in this county. The same contractor will build the v auowa. Lostine and Joseph depots. . The Wallowa depot will be the first one built. Part of the material has been shipped and work will commence within a few days. The Wallowa Mercantile Company has nearly completed a big warehouse 124 feet long by 72 feet wide. It will be adequate for the needs of the town for some months to come, while two other ware houses are being planned. The railroad company will arrange for office room in the big warehouse until the depot is fin ished. r Schoolhonse Will Cost $53,000. MARSH FIELD. Or.. Oct. 25. (Special.) The cornerstone of the new High School building at North Bend will be laid Octo ber 26. The occasion will be made quite an event. I The new North Bend school will cost 153.000. and will be the finest building in that city. Ten Cows Sell Tor $650. ECHO. Or.. Oct. 25. (Special.) T. G. Smith, the pioneer dairyman of this local ity, sold 10 head of milch cows to a Her miston butter-maker for t50. probably the highest price ever received for such a number of cows in this country. tT' iiMiiM!rMassa - TO EMPLOY 75 MEN New Sawmill Will Be Estab lished at Oregon City. STOCK BEING SUBSCRIBED John W. Moffett. Experienced Mill Man, Is Promoting Undertaking. Local Market Would Consume Large Part ot Output. OREGON CITT, Or., Oct. 25. (Special.) With a capital of $75,000 in sjght, the organization of a lumber company to operate a mill with a capacity of 75,000 feet a day is in progress at Oregon City, with every chance of success. The promo tion department is in the hands of John W. Moffett, for many years with the Willamette Pulp A Paper Co.. and C. S. Keller, who has been connected with the Booth-Kelly Lumber Company and the Tongue Point Lumber Company and is an experienced lumberman. It is proposed to take over the plant of the Oregon City Mill & Lumber Com pany and consolidate with machinery for a sawmill that is now situated at Als paugh, Clackamas County, and owned by W. G. Bohn, now of Portland, but for merly a successful lumberman of Wis consin. Mr. Bohn has taken stock In the proposed concern to the value of $20,000, and is willing to assume even more. To Hare Well-Equipped Plant, The Oregon City Mill & Lumber Com pany has a plant that is well equipped to turn out finished products, with a sash and door factory, dry kilns, etc., but it has been handicapped for the want of a sawmill, being compelled to "purchase its sawed timber in the open markets, and thereby entering into competition with planing mills and Victories with facili ties for handling the raw product. The plant, was recently sold to the Northern California. Lumber Company, or rather traded for stoclc in the California con cern, but the local men have obtained an option to purchase It, and If the new deal goes through, the entire plant will be kept in Oregon City. This will also mean that at least 75 men will receive steady employment, and the payroll, instead of disappearing en tirely, will be Increased from $2000 to about J800D monthly. Even the employes of the Oregon City Mill & Lumber Com pany have shown their faith in the new project by subscribing for stock to the amount of J2000. and the present stock holders of the company have taken about $4000. With a capital stock of $75,000 the new company -will have $25,000 for working capital. The stock Is divided into 750 shares, end the Crown-Columbia Pulp & Paper Company, which owns the site of the mill, has tacitly agreed to extend the lease five years, giving it 13 years to run.. Logging Problem Easy One. Mr. Moffett, who has gone into the whole matter very carefully, and who Is known to be a practical man, says that the logging features present no difficul ties, as the tributaries of the Upper Wil lamette will supply all the logs neces sary for years to come. The paper mills at Oregon City pay 26 cents per 1000 for the towage of logs and procure enough during the high water of May, June and July to last for the rest of the year, and the new lumber company could follow this plan. There are immense bodies of timber in Clackamas County that are practically untouched and a logging rail road is one of the possibilities in connec tion with the project, running out of Oregon City and taking an easy grade up the Abernethy. This is the route of the proposed Oregon City, Beaver Creek & Molalla Railroad. BOND ISSUE UP TO VOTERS Question of City Ownership to Be Decided at Grants Pass. GRANTS PASS, Or., Oct. 25. (Special.) This city will for the first time exercise the referendum in amending Its present charter. By ordinance No. 326, the voters will be called upon to amend section 133 of the city charter, which provides for municipal ownership of city water works. The present proposition, if the amendment carries, will authorize the Council to Issue bonds In the sum of $M,000 for the Rogue River water plant. Many voters are in favor of the amend ment, but there is a feeling that the present plant is not worth that amount of money, and believe that the sum to be raised should be used for a new city plant. Quite an interest is being mani fested for and against the amendment, and much literature Is being distributed upon the streets in the shape of dodgers that point out arguments pro and con upon the situation. A special election to decide the matter has been called for October 27. NEW LIBRARY ASSURED Hoqulam Council Makes Appropria tion for Site. HOQUIAM. Wash., Oct. 25. (Spehlal.) That Hoquiam will soon have a fine Car negie Library is an established fact, the City Council having purchased a site on the comer of Seventh and K streets, cen trally located, for $5000. It has also ap propriated $2500 annually for maintenance. Mr. Carnegie will furnish t25.000 for the project and work will be rushed. The McCrimmon residence, a building costing over J3000. will probably be left on the library site temporarily and used for library purposes until plans are In readi ness for the construction of the library building proper. Painting Grants Pass Factories. GRANTS PASS. Or., Oct. 25. (Special.) The large warehouses of this place which occupy prominent positions near the depot and in the railroad yards will be decidedly improved by the use of paint and whitewash. This movement has been brought about by the elvie improvement "workers, who have urged upon the owners of the buildings the necessity of such improvement. When this work has been completed, the rail road yards and abutting buildings will have a neat appearance from both local and traveiers view. The initiatory step in carrying out these plans has been taken by the Grants Pass Fruit Ex change, which is now putting two coats of paint over its , packing-house. Dr. S. Abbott, Pioneer, Dies. MAR8WFIELD, Or., Oct. 25. (Special.) Dr. S. Abbott, one of the old veterinary surgeons of this part of the state, and a pioneer of Oregon, died at his home in Myrtle Point today; WAKE UP, OREGONIANS Other Sections Are Steal ing the Benefits of Your Free Publicity. A striking example of how a great state like Oregon is worsted in the race for colonists is affordd in the current edltton of The Fruit Grower, the great . Fruit Paper, published in St. Joseph. Mo. And It isn't the fault of the Fruit Grower. James M. Irvine, the founder and editor of The Fruit Grower, is an ex ceedingly modest man. He has been through the fruit dis tricts of the Northwest several times in the last ten years, and has been so quiet, about It that few people, aside from fruit men, have realized that our country's most Influential writer on fruit culture was in our midst. Mr. Irvine made one of these quiet trips this Fall. He spent time In Col orado, . Wyoming, Utah, Idaho, Wash ington and Oregon. As he travelled, he observed and made notes, and when he got back to his editorial sanctum he wrote a long article an article which with its profuse photo-illustrations occupied 56 columns In the current issue of his publication more than all the rest of the reading matter combined. The ar ticle deals most appreciatively with, fruit culture in the Northwest, and especially with the opportunities for the eastern farmer to come here and raise fruit. While It was not written with that purpose, the article will have the effect of Influencing hundreds of farmers In favor of buying fruit lands in the territory about which he wrote. Now here is the point of what I am writing: Some advertisers. Interested In col onization and sale of fruit lands, were wise enough to take advertising space in this issue. Like myself, , they learned about Mr. Irvine's trip. In ad vance, and realized what a splendid advertising opportunity was afforded by the edition in which his great arti cle would appear. Jn all these advertisers -used II columns of advertising space to ap propriate to themselves a large part of the benefit of 5 columns of reading matter. Now, what percentage, do you sup pose, what percentage of that 56 columns of reading matter was about Oregon? There was 46 per cent near ly half. What percentage of the advertising pace was used for Oregon? Only 3 per cent a thirtieth. Our cleverer neighbors to the North east In the Spokane country what did they do? Having the benefit of only 18 per cent of the reading matter, they used 59 per cent of the advertising space thereby procuring for themselves over half the benefit of Mr. Irvine's editor ial work a half that should have been retained by Oregon, especially as Mr. Irvine In his article devoted nearly half, his space to Oregon. Study these figures for just a second: FREE PUBLICITY Oregon S6 cols., 46 per cent Spokane Country 10 cols., 18 per cent Other Sections ...19 cols., 38 per cent PAID ADVERTISEMENTS Oregon hi cols., per cent Spokane Country 9 cols., 59 per cent Other Sections ...6 cols., ZlVt percent o Some folks and smart folks, too may think this Is greatly to Oregon's advantage to merit and procure nearly half this splendid free publi city, while paying for only a thirtieth of the advertising. But the facts are, that while Ore gon deserves and obtains tremendous free publicity, especially through Tom Richardson's work the facts are that It is the paid advertising which actual ly draws the Inquiries from homeseek ers, and ultimately draws the home seekers themselves. That is why those sections, like California, Arizona, Texas. Oklahoma, Wyoming, the Spok ane Country and Alberta, which are paying for advertising, are this Fall, getting the most oj the inquiries and most of the colonists.- o Oregon's experience with the Irri gation fund over again that's what !t is. Oregon contributes more to the irrigation fund than any other state, and most of the money goes to develop other states. Oregon deserves more free publicity than any other state, on her merits, and gets fewer colonists. Why? The reason for Oregon's being dis tanced In both cases Is Alike Oregon Is not kept definitely before the people by peralstent paid advertising as are the other states. The other states are shrewd, smart advertisers, and they get the benefit of publicity, Irrigation funds, river and harbor appropriations and a good many other, things that on merit oughf to come to Oregon. . o Now then. Messrs. Oregonlans, I tfnnori Mr Irvine's article off to your leading publicity men and land com panies threo months ago, and followed the Information up by personal letters and personal solicitation. It was your fault that you did not take advantage of this. I asked you for your ads and got a few, lamentably few. There was so few they barely paid the post age on the first announcement, to say nothing of the postage on the personal letters I sent out. So you are the losers, through failing to take advant age of your opportunity. Other com peting states will get the benefit of the publicity so splendidly earned by your great development work. o It's high time right now that you get busy and appropriate for your selves some of these benefits being scattered so freely by these great fruit papers, farm papers and magazines. Advertise, from now on, regularly. In The Fruit Grower and other papers of equal high standing papers that are all the time pulling results on coloni sation advertising actual inquiries and real colonists. Get In'.o these papers with your ad vertisements, and stay In them. j Write me for a list, with advertis ing rates. This office is equipped right up to date with rate, information. sample copies, etc., of ovar 25,000 publications. and I know from experience which arc the ones which pull the inquiries from the homoscekcrs. Write today for this select list it costs you nothing. o Yours for greater Oregon. C. C. CHAPMAN". President, CHAPMAN ADVERTISING CO. Portland. Oregon. "The Success Factory."
