TO Our
WE HAVE rather neglected our Advertising of late, not
because we had nothing to sell; but we had nothing
especially new to offer, and preferred to wait until we could
say something of interest. We are, and have been for some
time, busily engaged in placing our orders for Spring and
Summer Goods and feel justified in announcing that we
shall have the FINEST ASSORTMENT and the BEST
GOODS in all our lines that has ever been seen in The
Dalles. We have secured some genuine novelties in the
Dry Goods Department, and the ladies will certainly con
sult their best interests by deferring their purchases until
after their arrival, of which we shall give you due notice.
Keep both eyes on this space and we will certainly surprise
you, not only with the goods, but the prices at Which we
shall sell them. We mean business and propose to have
your patronage, if LOW PRICES and the BEST
GOODS will accomplish it. Yours Respectfully,
The Dalles Daily Chronicle.

A DISCOVERY.
The Scale Apparently Killed by the
Winter's Severity.
I. J. NORMAN'S TREES ARE PREE
The Native Climate for Thens Warm-
Mot Known In the
East.
I. J. Norman, who has made the scale
an especial object of his attention for
the past two years, was most agreeably
surprised yesterday to observe his trees,
which were badly covered with scale, of
a dull brown color. A closer examina
tion showed that it was the scale, and
scraping them up on his thumb nail,
noticed that they were quite lifeless and
of a color strikingly different than the
usual reddish-yellow.
Mr. Norman has about forty trees in
bis enclosure, and all efforts to perma
nently rid them of the scale were un
availing, though spraying would tern
porarily check them. Tbey have got so
thick that now even the pine trees are
covered.
If the destruction has been general it
will be the greatest boon that could
happen to orchard ists in this country
It is known that they are a native of a
warmer climate, coming originally from
Africa, and thriving in the semi-trop
ical region of California. In the east,
however, where the winters are severe,
they are not known, and the conclusion
is pretty certain that they cannot sur
vive the cold.
