Crop NctN liiuuUoino IToflt 111 Eaul EimI HorrUn and Cherries Iking ShliMMl Peaches Will Bo Heavy This Year Excellent Fruit Smisoii. Frcowater, June IS. Strawberries are about gone In this district and cherries are commencing to come In In large bunches. Other small frulU are also beginning to ripen. The strawberry crop this year was very light but a conservative estimate would place the amount realized from strawberries at J50.000. Peaches are going to be heavy this year, and apples will be about the same as last yeur, but a better grade Is expected. George A. Hardy, whose farm Is about a mile west of this city, has thus far won the blue ribbon for hav ing raised the largest strawberries ever known lu this section of the state, he having raised over $700 worth of berries, known as the Gibson variety, on one acre of ground which was set out In plants last year. In one box there were 14 of the big beauties, while In one crate Inspected today there were not more than 18 berries t' a box. One of the larger berries was measured and was found to be lt2 Inches In diameter. The berries are as thick on tho plants as they can grow, and Mr. Hardy's crop this year will net him a handsome profit. Mr. Hardy's strawberry patch Is In a veritable rock pile, and one of the peculiar features of the large berries Is that where the rocks are tho larg est, there are to be found the largest berries. MARION' HAS 17 PHY PRECINCTS. Almost llnlf of tlio County Won by tho Prolils. Seventeen out of 41 precincts In Marlon county went dry at. the last election and were officially proclaim ed dry by County Judge Scott Satur day afternoon, says a Salem Item. There were Just 17 saloons In these 17 prerlncts, divided among three of them Sllverton, Stayton and Auros ville. Chemawa and Macleay, formerly dry, reverted to, the wet column. As there were two salons at Macleay twe years ago before the prohibitionists won there, these two saloons will likely be reestablished. Five precincts In the city of Salem went dry and the whole city mlwed going dry by; but 60 votes. All three Sllverton precincts are dry, besides the following rural precincts: Aumsvllle, Klkhorn, Jefferson, Mehama, Stay ton, Liberty, Rosedale, ScotU Mill! and Turner. In two precincts, Brelt enbush and Marlon the vote was a tie and the Judge decided they would remain wet. Mehama went dry by one vote. In the dry Salem precincts there were no saloons. No protests were offered at the ses sion of the county court when the pro hibition vote was canvassed this af ternoon. The protestants who held that the ballot was made up wrong, retreated from their position. A tech nical defect was found, however. In the petition calling for the subdivi sion vote In Sllverton. But as all the precincts went dry In the subdivision this discovery was of no avail, for the precincts were voted dry under the county petlton, which was not de fective. FAIXTIXG BERTHA RECAPTURED WILL HUNT RAILROAD TIES. ThelBestlAlarm Clock. If you have use for an alarm clock to wake you up these spring mornings, then you should get a good one. A poor alarm clock is much worse than no clock at all. Tou cannot de pend upon a cheap clock picked up probably In a place where the knowledge of clocks Is un known. When you buy a clock from us you know that If any thin? goes wrong we are ready, to make good with the proper repairs. All alarm clocks guaranteed and cost from $1.00 to $3.50. Louis Hunziker Jeweler and Optician, TS( Main St. Effort to Recover Ttiosc Tliat Were Ist by the Flood. During the high water In the early part of April F. D. AlcCuIIy, of Jos eph, who had a contract with the O. K. & X. company lost a large quan tity of railroad ties down the Grand Ronde river, says the La Grande Star. Mr. McCully's son Wllmer, who ar rived from Joseph yesterday, is go Ing to. make the attempt to recover the larger portion of the ties that were washed away. It has been as certained that large quantities of the timbers have lodged at different points along the Grande Ronde and the young man will take a force of six assistants and a boat and go down the river and gather up "all the ties that can be found. As rapidly as they can be assem bled these ties will be put Into a raft and floated down to the Snake river at Lewlston where they can be turn ed Into market. It Is expected that about $5000 worth of ties can be re covered in this way and that Is con sidered to be a much better business proposition than to lose the whole thing.
