At the annual meeting of the American Penological Society, Dean L. H. Bailey of Cornell University, spoke on "The. Satisfaction of Frultraising." ' dwelling more particularly on the esthetic side of of the subject. He said: "In physical perfectness of form and solidity and color there is nothing in all the world that ex ceeds a well-grown apple. Let It be In the palm of your hand; put In against your cheek and inhale Its fragrance; note the stem, how It stands firmly in Its cavity. This apple is not only the pro duct of your labor, but It holds the es sence of the year and it Is In itself a thing of exquisite beauty. There is no other rondure and no fragrance like this." Professor Bailey closed by reading the following original poem: My laM Winter apples I ate today. hapely and stout in their modeled skins; isecurtly packed In my cellar bina. Two doien good kinds of apple spheres lay. And today I went to my orchard trees And pleked me the flrat ric yellow fruits That hum far out on the swinging shoots. In Summer aims and the Summer-day breeze. t And thereby It mi that the two yeara met, leep In the midst of the ripe July, When the wheat was shocked and tha streams were dry. And weather of Winter stayed with me yet. For I planted these orchard trees myself. On hllWde alopea that belong to me. Where vllons are wide and winds are free, Tliit all the round year might come to my oelf. And there oa my shelves the whits Winter throuith. Pippin and PearmaJn.

They brlna me tha days when the grousa was turned, , When the trees were pruned and tilled and sprayed. When the sprouts were cut and grafts were made. When fields were cleaned and the brush-wood plica burned. I taate of the wilds and the blowlna rain; And 1 taste of the frost and the skies: fondemned they lie In the apple suise And then escape and restore me again. MRS.

DEMAND NOW BRISK Lumber Dealers Report Mar ket Is Very Active. OUTLOOK IS ALSO BRIGHT Mills in Association Will Select Fin est Oregon Fir to Re X'sett in Finishing Building in Washington, J). C. Demand for Oregon and Washington lumber has greatly improved during the last month, and manufacturers are looking forward to an unusually busy season next year. The gratifying in crease in business, which has been quite dull during the last two years, was a topic of general discussion at the regu lar monthly meeting of the Oregon and Washington Lumber Manufacturers' Association, held in the Commercial Club Hall, yesterday afternoon, and nearly every member present testified to his own knowledge of the growing demand. Since the panic of 1907, the lumber business has been depressed, and not until recently has there been much of an encouraging improvement in the conditions. The improvement In the de mand for lumber Is taken as a proof of growing prosperity in all sections of the country. The selection of the rarest quality of Oregon fir for the Interior finish of the reception room of the International Bu reau of American Republics, to be built in Washington, D. C, formed a live topic at the meeting yesterday. The association has requested every manu facturer to ship to Portland at least 1000 feet of his choicest green fir, and from the 20.000 feet thus to be sent, the final selection for the 4000 feet to be used In the building to be constructed at Washington, D. C. la to be made. John Barrett, director of the Bureau of International Republics, was formerly a Portland newspaper man, and his loy alty to the State of Oregon caused him to finish the reception room of the new building with Oregon fir. One of the more important features of the meeting yesterday was the agreement to standardize odd lengths of higher-class lumber as a matter of economy. It has been found that many contractors desire odd lengths, and in stead of selling lumber in the future in j-e fc s- t -r'v."

Beary, a well known con fectioner, is confined to his home at Eighteenth and Washington streets as a result of a streetcar accident. The aged man was struck by a streetcar while out walking at Sixteenth and Davis streets. He was knocked down, his head striking the street with great violence.
