TAYLOR WINS.
The
'New Spring Suit" Decided for the
Defendant.
About a year ago the Oregonian, over
the displayed heading "A New Spring
Suit," gave the particulars of the open
ing of a case against O. D. Taylor by
Foster and others. Thecase. reached its
final conclusion yesterday . in Portland
before Judge Bellinger and was decided
in favor of Taylor. The history of the
case is as follows : The plaintiffs gave
defendant notes aggregating in value
$150,000 for real estate. They after-
wards sought to restrain their collection
till the equities could be tried, taking
the ground that the Columbia River
Fruit company was not legally organ
ized. Tbe judgment of the court was
that the fruit company was legally or
ganized. In order to bring -suit they
gave bonds for $10,000, to cover any pos
sible damages sustained by defendant.
And now Taylor proposes to sue for the
$10,000, not - being satisfied with ' the
mere winning of the suUi

The afternoon of Wednesday was filled
in by a paper of Mr. Dawson, and dis
cussion, Col. Babcock and Dr. Blalock of
Walla Walla being absent.
. The evening exercises opened with an
overture for violin and piano, very nicely
executed by Prof. Birgfeld and Mr
Burchtorf.
Dr. E. 7. Sanders then made a vigor
ous speech for the necessity of stronger
horticultural laws. While, the legisla
ture has made extravagant appropria
tions for other industies, it has done
nothing for horticulturists, the third
largest industry of the state. He argued
for as vigorous quarantine laws on in
fected trees as on infectious diseases.
The need of law is first to compel and
then to educate. He would recommend
that as voters they take the matter to
the ballot box and compel their wishes
to be recognized. In the discussion
that followed Mr. Taylor asked if there
were not already enough suitable laws.
Mr. Hendershot believed with Mr.
Sanders, etating further that the trouble
was the men eent to the legislature were
too subservient to party interests. Mr.
Clark was called for. He rather evaded
the question by saying the Pacific North
west was trying to regulate themselves
by their own action, and concluded with
a statement that for tbe codlin moth, he
had found Paris green a failure, and had
better success with London purple.
A spirited gallop was then played on
the piano by Mrs. Collins, a classical
selection of much musical merit.
A most excellent paper was then read
on "strawberry Culture," written by
Mr. T. R. Coon and read by Mr. Brown.
It was especially valuable to Wasco
county growers because the experiences
of the writer were adapted to our climate
and soil. The paper opened with the
sentence "God couldtave made a better
fruit than the strawberry, but be didn't."
He found Clark's Early the best variety
to plant in Hood River, although it did
not do well in Eastern Oregon where it
originated. , Too much, or not enough
irrigation- may be given. His custom
was to irrigate a given row for six or
seven hours, which will be all that is re
quired for a week, the irrigation to be
followed by Rballow cultivation. He
favored the use of transplanters. Much
valuable information was given as to the
picking and handling. The pickers
should grade the fruit as they pick, and
pick only one berry at a time. The
oftener the berry is handled the softer it
becomes. The reason Hood River
berries were a favorite in far-away mar
kets were the painstaking care taken in
minor details which rendered the berry
firm and fresh when reaching the mar
ket. Water eprinkled around tbe pack
ing house laid the dust and cooled the
atmosphere, two important reasons for
so'doing, as the cooler the berry is kept
the better it will ship. . ..
A piano -duet followed by Misses
Scbanno and Schmidt wbich drew forth
loud and ' continued : applause. The
young ladies did not respond.
"The Use of Dynamite in Clay Soil,"
was the subject of a paper written by
Mr. Elmer Stearns, of Salt Lake, Utah,
and read by Mr. T. A. Hudson, of The
Dalles. Mr. Hudson said he took occa
eion to say that the merits of the paper
were great in localities suited to the in
formation, but that Wasco county soil
was of a different formation and did not
require the stirring of the soil so deeply.
The paper advocates the breaking up of
the clay or "hardpan" below the strata
of soil to give a chance for the roots to
go down to moist earth, the tops
making a corresponding growth. . The
soil is to be stirred up for a depth of
eight or ten feet, and laterally twenty
five feet or more by a dynamite charge.
The paper is very able, but is of more
value in Southern Oregon than here.
Two resolutions were read, one thank
ing the people- of "The Dalles for their
courteous bearing and conduct, and one,
presented by Mr. Dosch, for better hor
ticultural laws. ,
Mr. O. D. Taylor moved a vote of grat
itude to the officers of the society for the
interest shown - and lessons taught our
people, which was carried nnanimously.
The president then appointed a com
mittee of. three to consider the question
of marketing our products. The com
mittee are Willis Brown, Portland, Chas.
V. Morse of Salem, and Emile Schanno
of The Dalles.
Notice was given of a proposed change
in the constitution, to meet semi-annually,
instead of quarterly.
An invitation being received from
Ashland for the next quarterly meeting,
the second Tuesday in .'July, it was
accepted. .
