M. O. Pohl, tho new Coos County Fruit Inspector, is in Marshfleld to day on business connected with his new duties. Mr. Pohl will visit the various orchards on the Coos river and on the various inlets on this trip. In conversation with a Times re porter Mr. Pohl said that he did not find tho fruit trees in tho vicinity of Coos Bay In as good condition as he expected. Very few of the fruit grow ers have given their trees tho atten tion really required. Mr. Pohl right ly says that this should be a matter of local pride with tho people, and that simply as a demonstration of what, may bo done In the way of fruit raising, the peoplo in this section should see that even If they have only a few trees that they be properly kept. Mr. Pohl Is very much in earnest in his work, and says if peoplo will not act on his first notice ho will then give a second notice, and if action is not taken then ho will proceed under the state law and have the trees prop erly treated by labor that he will em ploy or tho trees cut down and the expense assessed against the prop erty. Ho expresses the hope that It may not be necessary to resort to these extreme measures. Mr. Pohl states that at Coquille ono man provided himself with a sprayer and did tho work for tho en tire section, making a charge for his work, and he thinks there is the same opportunity for some man in this sec tion. Mr. Pohl is enthusiastic about the possibilities of commercial orchards in this section, of which he says he has not seen one. Very few of the fruit growers have realized anything from their trees, and none of them the full possibilities of the business. Mr. Pohl says that every tree should bo good for at least $10 per season, but if that sum were divided in two, with SO trees to the acre it would bring In the handsome sum of $400 per acre. Ho contrasts this with the hard work of dairying much to the advantage of the fruit grower. Coqulllo Fruit Growers Organize. A local branch of tho Cops County Fruit Growers Association was or ganized in Coquille last Saturday, February 29. E. A. Howey was subject of fruit growing. The prime i object of the association 13 to see thnt a nno article of fruit is grown, aiul then that tho producer gets a fair rensonblo price for it, and to do !thls Jt is tho purposo of tho associa- tlo t0 form a stock company. A mo tlon was mndo and carried that the association bo known as tho "Co qulllo Fruit Growers' Association, with headquarters at Coqulllq. It was decided to meet Saturday, March 14, at 10:30, for the purposo of per- treasurer, This completes tho organization of tho association, and it is now ready fully, one of them will bo built on r t.. vura ua), THE ADVANCE 1 Are Plentiful at Upper Klamath Lake, A Sensible Sug gestion. Under date of Spokane, March 5, F. B. Tichenor, that energetic and tireless booster for Coos Bay, writes that the Coos County Free Informa tion Bureau of Spokane, of which Mr. Tichenor is promoter and manager, will start its first immigration to Coos county this week and keep It up until fall. These men, he writes, have means, and will locate some where in Coos county. Mr. Tichenor who Is general organ izer of the Woodmen of the World for Eastern Washington and north ern Idaho, has given freely of his money, time and effort in tho work of boosting Coos county, and spread ing information of its resources to the world. He deserves well of the people of this section, for which he Is working so energetically, intelli gently and effectively. Have James McCarthy Stealth t ily Brought Back From Butte, Montana. Editor Coos Bay Times: In a recent issue of the Times there appeared a local item concern ing a pelican which had been killed up Haynes Inlet, and which closed with the remark that pelicans are very rare inland, and that It was be lieved that this particular stray bird was run ashore by the recent storms along the coast. Tlie writer assumes that The Times Is correct In its judg ment that the bird was a pelican, for he is not in apposition to visit this particular Museum of Natural His tory of the city of Marshfleld to ver ify it. On this assumption he begs to offer the following remarks. In tho first place, tho pelican Is not a deep sea bird, as your reporter Im plies, but rather frequents lakes, rivers and sea coasts of temperate and tropical countries. They are probably seldom seen In the vicinity of Coos Bay, or along these northern coasts because of the prevailing cool temperature, but It seems to be a fact unknown to tho sources of your in formation that tho pelican at least summers in largo numbers not 150 miles away from hero as he files. In other words It does not seem to be known here on the Bay that the Up per Klamath Lake, and Pelican Bay In particular, Is a great rendezvous 1 1: for the pelican through tho summer season. In the second place, in view of tho fact that the boys and girl3 of Marshfleld and vicinity aro wisely de nied access to theso mounted speci mens of natural history (which ac cording to. your report has already become extensive) because of tho dangerous and pernicious associa tions in which they aro exhibited, and aro thus denied ono of the most val uable means of acquiring accurate and practical knowledge in the realm of natural history, is it not an opportune time to suggest that either provision bo made for such a collec tion and exhibition in connection with the public library, which is be ing pushed at tho present time, or that tho Chamber of Commerce in its laudable work of exhibiting tho re sources and wonders of this country add such a collection to its general exhibit.
