Of Interest of Horticulturists.
The Marion County Fruit Growers'
Association held its annual meeting at
Salem on the 18th - instant, when topics
of interest to horticulturists and gardners
were discussed. Among the papers read
was one by B. S. Pague, on-"Horticulture
h and Climatic jr Considerations,"
which" contained the following remarks
of general interest to fruit growers and
of special interest to the fruit growers
of Wasco county. Ten acres of fuit trees
at the age of five years, he said will yield
more in one year than would twenty
acres of wheat in five years ; each aere
each year, yielding twenty-five bushels
to the acre, and each bushel selling for
80 cents.. He said that the weather
bureau record showed that in the vicinity
of Hood River and The Dalles, the low
est night temperature was higher in that
locality than in any other part of the
state from June 1st to September 15tb,
making the section especially suited to
peach culture. He explained how cold
air settled in valleys and said vegetation
on rising ground is never expossd to the
full intensity of irosts or cooler night air
and the higher -they are situated relative
to the immediately surrounding district,
the less they are exposed, since their
relative elevation provides a ready escape
downward of the cooler air almost as
rapidly as it isr formed: Frosts are most
severely felt where the slopes above
them are destitute of vegetation, for if
the slopes are covered ' with trees, they
offer resistance to the descending cur
rents of cold air and distribute the cold
produced by radiation through the
atmosphere." ,'He then distinguighed
the frost and nonfrost periods as they
generally exist in Oregon and affect
vegetation, andggave an example of how
with the dry and wet bulb thermometer
any horticultnris't could determine for
himself the probable approach of frost
and gave, remedies of how to 'protect
orchards from frost by burning damp
straw and allowing the smoke to cover
the orchard
The Fireman's Kail.
. The firemens' ball' given last night in
the Umatilla house was a grand success,
both as to the numbers in attendance
and in financial results. Colonel Sin
not t estimates that a thousand persous
were in attendance." Others more con
servatively inclined place the number at
three to four hundred. All agree that
there was an immense crowd, everything
passed off - pleaeantly and a most enjoy
able time was had. " The first prize for
the best sustained gentleman's character
was a pair of solid gold sleeve buttons
and shirt stnds and was awarded . to
Andrew Keller . in the' character of a
shoemaker. The second, a gold quartz
scarf pin, was awarded to Mr. Ulrich,
who assumed the character of a soldier.
The first ladies' prize, a handsome and
valuable dressing case was awarded to'
Miss Jacobsen in the character of "Sun
flower." The second prize was a large
cabinet album and was awarded to Miss
Pauline Buchler, who assumed the char
acter of Maid of Athens.
An Important Meeting.
An adjourned meeting of the county
court will be held next Monday. The
principal business to come before it will
be the county levy. In view of the fact
that Multnomah county has ignored the
work of the state board of equalization,
and that its recognition by Wasco county
would involve a considerable addition
ta our state tax, Judge Thornbury de
sires that the citizens of The Dalles
meet in the county court room next
Monday evening at the usual hour to
counsel with one another as to the course
the county court ought to pursue in the
premises whether'or not to ignore the
findings of the Etate board as Multnomah-county
has done and make the
levy from the assessment roll as returned
by the county assessor.

much larger sum by securing the aboli
tion of costly and unnecessary bureaus,
and by the deterrent influence of his

How to Manage Haabantis.'- - "

worth the whole batch of them : "Feed

The best suggestion canje from ily
Devereaux Blake, who proposed, as the

where he 'was going when he went away,
and where he had been when he came
back. Lily is a- darling. St. Joseph
