TEACHERS' INSTITUTE.

Ackerman, Prof. R. G. Boone, of
Los Angeles, Cal. ; R. P. Robin
son, School Superintendent of

"If the duty on timber is tak
en off. in response to the de-
mands of some Eastern theorists,
the timber industry of the North
west will be paralyzed and every
mill and logging camp will be
shut down," said W. G. Howell;
a timberland owner of Portland,
in a recent interview.
"The $2 a thousand duty rep
resents the profits on its manu
facture, and it can be easily seen
that men are not going to manu
facture lumber without some
profit. Should the $2 be taken
off, Canadian lumber will swamp
the markets of the East, and, as
there will be none shipped from
the United States to foreign
countries, the woods of Oregon
and Washington will be given
over to solitude, as they were
before the advent of the whites
into Oregon.
' That there is danger, of lum
ber being placed on the free list
is evident from the .sentiment
among the Eastern consumers
who are demanding legislation
on the tariff, at the next session
of Congress. It therefore be
hooves every manufacturer of
lumber and every owner of a'log
ging camp in the Northwest to
be on the alert to avert the ca
lamity threatened.
"Of course we. all want the
tariff revised, but non6 of us
want our particular material to
be affected. I am not in favor
of removing the tariff from any
article which, if placed on the
free list, will tend to close down
our factories or reduce the wages
of our workers. I am even will
ing to pay 50 cents a sack on
sugar, that the trust demands,
rather than have the industry
injured, even if we should be at
the mercy of a trust." " ;
i year we are especially strong on the
varieties popular with western orchardists
such as apple (chiefly the unexcelled 1
year). Peach, Pear, Cherry, Apricot, Plum,
Small Fruits, etc , and we want your or
der whether for one Stark Tree or one
million. Write for our Stark Fruit Book.
Stark Delicious 'Apple
is a wondrous success, and Solely
on its genuine merit is the' most
talked of apple today . This is what
one of the . greatest commision
houses in the country says of it:
"Last year we secured one carload of Del
icious from Washington and placed them
in small lots in Chicago and large Eastern
cities at 40 per cent more in price than oth
er varieties we handled at that time. Who
ever had them last year, have repeatedly
asked for them this year before our supply
arrived. This year we are selling Delicious
at 50 per cent more than Jonathan, Grimes
Golden, Rome Beauty, Alexander, etc.
They are just what particular people want
in a fine table apple, being neither too sweet
nor too sour, a fine looker' and have -good
keeping qualities.. We unhesitatingly say we -consider
it the best all round apple, espec
ially for table use, and in our estimation
Delicious should head the list of all apples."

"100 7 year old Delicious trees in the Blackman or
chard, Kittitas Co., Washington, are bowed to the
ground with tneir fruit and this year, when prices
are low, turned a revenue to the owner of $2000.00
Eight years ago this land could have been purchased
for a trifle. Today $3000.00 per acre would not buy
it. Stark trees mike land fabulous in value."
We have 1,250,000 Delicious trees
this year hardly enough to supply
the demand. How many do you
want? Better order early.
Have you tasted this royal fruit?
If not, we will send a box of 3 specimens on re
ceipt of 25 cents to pay partial express charges.
(No charge is made for the fruit). The 25 cents we.
will refund to you on the first order of trees sent
us. Send for the fruit today and ask for our New
Delicious Booklet. It is free. - -
