In Working Orilrr.
Through tho courtesy of Messrs.
Hlakcley k Houghton we were invited
to visit the telephone olllco in their
stoto laht evening and havo a oonvcrsa
tion with the superintendent, Mr. ChB.
H. llopkin?, in Spokane. Tho distance
from The Dalles is 1502 miles. Mr. Hop
kins informed us that the lino was prac
tically finished from his city to Hood
Kiver, west of this city, and that the
camjmny has a large force of men at
work hetweun tho latter place and
Troutdale, putting up poles and string
ing wire, and that they hoped within n
short time to open communication with
Portland, nnd later with Astoria. The
line works admirably and the distinct
iveness of sound and articulation of
words are perfect. It has branches out
to lrort SK)kane and Ccur d'Alene and
other places, and will eventually ho in
communication with all tho interior
towns in Oregon, Washington and
Idaho. We understand the rates fixed
are very reasonable. A message of ten
words from this place to Spokane is 50
cents, but usually threo minutes are put
in as schedule time for a message of
about :K10 words.

ful story then came to light. Her name

tiehij; no longer able to earn a livelihood,
he was compelled to exhibit her. They
left Idaho, where they lived, aud had
since been traveling. As the father,
who is 70 years old, had no funds, the
countv authorities were notified and

IrrlgMtluu I ii rrunt I
Fanning land in the United States, in
sections having an average rainfall, are
worth from $'J0 to G0 an acre. Arid, or
so-called "desert" lands, without irriga
tion tiro dear at twenty-five cents an
acre. With irrigation unimproved irri
gation lands in Southern California are
woith from foil to .fJ00 an acre. Water
can be placed on desert hinds at a cost of
from !f!0 to $76 an acre. If twenty-iivo
cut land and $10 water can he added
together und be made to foot up a total
of $50 an ncro valuo, what is irrigation
worth to the arid states?
Unlrrigated farming lands! have no
ertainty of producing!! eropof anything
depending on rainfall. Irrigated lands
can always be depended on to produce
tiny crop planted in the fertile earth.
Tho dlHVrence in tho value of these two
lasses of lauds is thodillerenco between
certainty aud chance.
Tho international Irrigation Congiess

Mr. J. A. McDonald, of tho Karl
Fruit Company, was at Mosier yester
day and loaded two-thirds of a car of
peach plums. The car will bo linished
at The Dalles, and sent east tonight.
This makes the fifth car of fruit eent out
from here by the Earl company, all
peach plums, which will be the last
shipment of that kind of fruit.
The next fruit handled will be the
Italian, Bradshaw and Hungarian or
Gross prunes, the first of which will
mature in about three weeks. There
will be a large tpiantity of these for ship
meni, anu uie can lruit cars will oe on
hand for them.
The experience of our fruit growers
with the Earl Fruit Company has been
highly satisfactory and better prices
have been realized through their
agency thus far than ever before.
Himv Uncle Klmnils Kaisrtl the Market
''Uncle" Rhonda Fisn came in the of
fice today and made us a pleasant call
He carried with Lim an empty basket
and was in his usual excellent spirits
uncle Jtnoaus liver is never out of or
der, and in fact it would be as difficult
to conceive of him minus his highly
contagious laugh as without the generous
quantity of flesh which makes his portly
figure a fair sight for sore eyes at all
times. He is not sensitive about his
color, though Africa's sun never shone
upon a darker skin. The hue of ebony
is his, save where Father Time has com
menced the bleaching process with bis
curly beard.
"Well, uncle, what are you driving
at?"
"I'm working across the river now,
'making butter from twenty head of cows
and celling it in town."
"And how are you doing?"
"Very good, considerin'. You see,
grass is gittin' a little scant now, and
butter ain't so plentiful as it used to be.
So, there no sense in sellin' it at thirty
centi a roll. I just told 'em that, and
they said, 'how much do you want?'
Forty cents ain't any too much, say I.
That's all they was to it, no arguin' nor
nothiu', they just handed it right out to
ine. When I work for a man I like to
work right up to the handle. An' there
ain't uothin' I can't learn, either. HI
was put to work in the oUice here, I'd
soon learn how to set up your news
paper. Some day I'll come in and watch
your machinery work. I'm always in
terested in everything new and catch on
to it without any trouble. But I must
be going now. Well good day," and
with a kindly flourish, ho disappeared
out the door. 1'ncle will always bo a
welcome visitor at Tim Chko.vici.k.
Hard times will never pinch nor bile ac
cumulate, when l-ncle Khoads' good-
humored face is visible.

She hetcheled the flax and carded the

Yes; and when she was forty years of
age, she was already an old lady whose

were bunt and her joints enlarged by
hard labor, and she wore spectacles and
