HE CORVALLIS GAZETTE Tuesdays and Fridays, Editorial Comment. It looks as if the Red Sea has sot had so- much prominence in the dispatches since Moses cross- The dispatches from Esopus daily chrouicles the fact that J udge Parker goes in swimming every morning. Nothing like practice to get himself prepared for the November deluge. Is It a Freak? A large cluster of red rasp Berries upon one of this year's stalks was brought into this office yesterday morning by S. N. Wil iius. This freak of nature may have happened before but it is so xtnnsual, it has excited more than ordinary comment. It is well kaown that, ordinarily, rasp Berries, blackberries, and the like require two years to mature, and need excellent care even at that age to bring good results. Mr. Wilkins has tour rows of these raspberries and the stalk from 'which the berries were taken was the strongest and most favorably 5 located of all. The patch is well protected on all sides with abundant sunshine during most of the day. The joil is spaded deep, well manured, pulverized, and over the whola is laid a thin mulching of straw. The old stalks were tamed out last year soon after bearing so as to give the roots the oenefit of ' rest, and likewise this year as vaoon as the berries were gathered the old stalks were removed and the young shoot topped. This is supposed to have been the cause mi the phenomenon in question.. l?he strength of the root when the parent stalk and the top of the young scion had been removed grew a sucker or false top upon,, the young shoot, and upon this the- beautiful large clusters of : fcerriea grew. There is no doubt but that the extra care bestowed bv Mr. Wil- insy together with the opportune removal oi useless aeaa material caused the supposed freak. Iu this- accidental discovery, there is ibod for thought to berry raisers. Jt may be that, with proper care, a. whole year may be saved. The 3talk we have in our posession kre twentv blossoms and eleven arge, full-sized berries. Rcaf Estate Transfers.

ROYAL BAKING POWDER CO, Good Advice on Ginseng Business Look out for ginseng and mush room companies that tell you how you can make - a great amount of. money with only a little labor and only a very little land or cellar room. Especially look out for the companies that promise to buy all you can raise, t fixed orf n matter what the price is. . Do not undertake to grow ginseng or mushrooms either, until you have visited some honest man who is making a success of the business. Many women in moderate circumstances are continually asking if they can support themselves by growing ginseng in their little gardens. Prof. L,. A. Clinton, director of Storrs Agricultural Experi ment Station, Connecticut, says. "I have investigated carefully the ginseng industry of Central New York, having visited many gardens, and I am certained there is no profit whatever, for the or- dinarv farmer. If one desiies to purchase a few ginseng seeds, or better yet, a few roots, to experi ment with, he will probably re ceive information enough to pay' him for the money expended; but he should not be much disappoint ed if he receives no returns from his investment," and he should charge up tfie money spent " as tuition for his education.
