which is heralded as a dairy country.
Here they are shipping in butter
from California when blitter is the
highest price and when they might
be making the most out of it.
Every fruit grower should get
busy and prune and spray his trees
If you have no other spray use
condensed lye, ten gallons of water
to one can of lye, it will kill the in
sects and fee moss, and should rain
wash it down it becomes the very
best fertilizer for your trees
Do you know fruit trees need
much more potash than any other
product you raise.
Lye is potash,
so don’t be slo«v about getting it or
else the merchants will be out by
the time you get around.
Let me give you further advice'
When there is frost on your trees
don’t attempt to prune, you will
injure them and under certain con
ditions may kill some.
When you prune do not cut so
that stubs are left, each cut should
heal over with ne.v bark, a stub can
not heal over, but will make dead
and rotten wood, and should a self
styled expert do such work for you,
stop him, de does not what he is
doing.
It you want to hear more that will
benefit the community and your
self, let us have a meeting, and that
soon. Let us meet in Bandon,
somewhere, sometime in the near fu
ture. It will not only be an advan
tage to fruit men, but will help the
merchants and the consumer. Be
fore you can be a successful apple
eater you should aid the apple
grower. Let us hear from the peo
ple when and where we shall meet?

Highest Tide in Seven Years
Coos Bay is experiencing the
highest tides it has known in many
years.
Some claim that it has
been twenty-seven years or so since
the present mark was reahed while
others claim that abont seven years
ago, the tides were just as high as
at present.
No particular damage has been
done by the tide so far. For a
while again this morning, it was run
ning over the dike a’ong Railroad
addition but aside from flooding the
marsh, the water caused little or
no inconvenience.
Yesterday the North Bend saw
mill was compelled to close down
for a while and again this morning
it was shut down, the water being
too high to permit its operation.
This is the season of the year for
the high tides and coupled with this
was the strong southwest wind
which drove the sea shoreward
and also the freshets in the in
lets and rivers entering the bay,
making a greater volume of water
than is usually known.—Times.

THE LOST CHORD.
RATED one day at the organ,
I was weary and ill at ease;
| And my fingers wandered idly
Over the noisy keys
I know not what I was playing
Or what I was dreaming then,
But I struck one chord of inuslo

snap is fastened. A piece of old twa
Inch tug or a strong leather collar 1»
placed on the bull’s neck, being held
in place by two short flat head bolt«,
which are far better than a buckla,
•nd a ring is placed on this collar.
When the bull is led out before liber
ating him ft Nm the staff the large snap
on one of the chains is snapped into
this ring. The bar clevis is then screw
ed into the ring in the bull's noaa,
when he is ready to take his exercise.
The til's t time an animal is hitched
it may lie necessary to drive him
around and to work the sweep for
him in order to get him accustomed to
it. The chains should lie so adjusted
that the one attached to the strap on
his neck will swing the sweep. It
should lie long enough so be can reach
the ground. Bj’ the use of this device
I have kept a bull until he was four
teen years old bi such condition that
his muscles were hard and flrm and
he was vigorous and virile. One great
advantage in exercising the animals
in this way is that they become ac
customed to lielng handled and ara
very nuch more tractable than when
kept tied fn the pens or when simply
led out and put in a tread power once
or twice a day for half an hour.
It linked all perplexing meanings
Into one perfect peace.
And It trembled away into allenes
As If it were loath to cease.
