Thare promises to be an apple
famine in Hilleboro, this Winter.
There are very few fine apple ofl'er-
iag in the market, while raisers of
averaee atock are afraid to offer
their products in the market for
fear there mar be a worm hole in
one or two of the lot, thus making
the owner liable to arrest for viola
ting the law relating to the sale of
diseased fruit. Most of the farmers
will feed their fruit to the hogs,
since they cannot dispose of it. In
the meantime, the general public
will go hungry for apples, or pay
exorbitant prices for the strictly
fancy, uninfected lots. Either
farmers must get rid of the fruit
poets, or dig up their orchards, so
long as the present law remains on
the statute books.
At a dinner given by the Port
land Commercial club, Tuesday
night, several speakers, among
whom were representatives of the
railway and other trusts, took a oc
casion to say that the Initiative
and Referendum amendment to
the state constitution, was a bad
thing, and they might have added
a dangerous thing for the trusts.
There will always be opposition to
any law that gives the common
people a chanoe to hold down cor
rupt politicians, and defeat rotten
special legislation.
Washington county has a rich
black soil, which reminds many
neweomers of the soil which made
the Mississippi valley famous aa a
corn belt. Speaking of corn, it
may be pertinent to remark, in
that connection, that the Willam
ette valley grows fine crops of that
cereal. Vegetable cannery process
ere Bay that our corn is the finest
for canning purposes, known. This
is especially true of the sweet corn
varieties.
Oregon is far ahead of California,
in the quality of the English and
French walnuts produced. Wash
ington countyla destined to lead
in this new and important indus
try, both soil and a sheltered loca
tion, making the above statement
possible.
I be Willamette valley prune
crop, this year, exceeds all previous
ones in volume. It has been esti
mated that this year's crop will
bring in the neat sum of $1,200,000
to growers.
Isn't there some danger that
when the Portland Rose Festival
fund gets too large, that some en
terprising fellow will want to start
a "four per cent" snake sign bank
with it?

OCTOBER PHILOSOPHY
Wben you feel you're gettio' morbid,
An' your blood begins to bile,
Take reef, quick, in your feelin's
Per it aint wntb while.
When your nabor has a tantrum,
An' it jest about to spile,
Don't you go an' losi vour temper
Fer it sint wuth while.
Wben the wort' is actin' badly,
An' its bard to raise a smile,
Don't you start streak o' cussin'
Fer it aint wuth while.
Wben there's notliin' seems coiisolin',
An your tongue fc;ls like a file,
on't you let it start baranguin'
F'er it aint wuth while
If ycur nabor 's talked shout you,
An' has spread it fer a mile,
Jest you lsff, and don't you worry
F'er it aint wuth while.
Life has joys; an' life has sorrows,
An' we meet with toil an' trial;
Stop complainin'; stop your growlin'
Fer it aint wuth while.
