. was a boy, way back in the 60's.
', Cut worms have done considerable
damage to growing crops in different
pares of the county, and some farmers
". have found it necessary to resow their
fields. M. Hendrickson has just

his neighbors have also found it Deces
sary to resow their fields.
The Commercial Club concert band
is practicing regularly, and the mem'
bers 'are becoming juite proficient.
Isn't it about time the band was giv
log an open air concert." There is no
necessity for their "hiding their light
under a buBhel" (or rather their music
in the old school house.) . They play
well enough to appear in public and
everybody would like to bear them.
At the recent examination of teach

Shingles are said to curl up and rail
fences are said to sink when laid a
certain time of the moon. Which is it?
Why is this." Readers of the Times

Few actors ever appeared on the
stage in The Dalles who were better
received than Miss Purnell as Blanche
and Miss Lindberg 'as Princess de
Goozaguo' in! "The Avenger" which
was rendsred at the Vogt last night.
These ladies are stars anywhere and
are capable to take almost any char
acter upon the stage.
The theater last night was poorly
attended, though the presentation of
"The Avenger" by Griffith was the
best attraction that has been here this
year. The plot of the play is excel
lent, and its presentation could not
have been better. The entire troupe
is composed of artists, and is worthy
of better patronage than it received
here. It is really too bad that Dalles
audiences do not patronize the go"d
attractions and give the poor ones the
"go by."

by the farmers that it will be by no
means inconsiderable. Generally
speaking, the prospects for a crop in
Umatilla county this year are not good.
Conservative men assert that there
will be not more than 60 per cent crop,
and many estimate it at not more than
50 per cent.

AN APPEAL TO FRUITGROWERS.
They Are Urged by the Horticultural
Board to Care for Trees.
Portland, Ore., May 61899.
Editor Times-Mountaineer.
The season is at hand for the culti
vation of and caring for our fruit trees
this summer. The small crop likely
to be gathered this fall, owing to the
unseasonable climatic conditions, will
have a tendency to cause many grow
ers to neglect their trees when they
need the utmost care and nursing. It
is very human to do our utmost when
everything is flourishing, andproflts
apparently large, to force matters;
and equally human to drop everything
when the reverse is the case.
In several of the reports issued
through the press and leaflets, by the
U.S. Weather Bureau, it is asserted
that the unseasonable cold wave in
February had done little or no damage.
These reports are no doubt compiled
from the statements received from
local observers and correspondents
throughout the state, and coming
from such a source and high authority
as the U. S. Weather Buroau, are pre
sumed to be correct and reliable, and
are very naturally believed by the
fruitgrowers. Advices received a!
this office, however, from practical
fruitgrowers and members of this board
from the various districts, are of a
different nature, and the damage done
is becoming more and more apparent
every day, especially in the middle
Willamette valley and parts of Eastern
Oregon; the Umpqua and Rogue River
valleys escaped without injury. We
know now that thousands of prune
trees have been killed on lands not
adapted to fruit raising, and thousands
of others planted on more favorable
land have been seriously injured, and
if neglected many will either die or
become permanently crippled, and
such trees need utmost care right
now.
The continued cold rain, which
makes the fruit drop, naturally tends
to discouragement, and in aduition,
neglect of the orchard will invite
fungus diseases and insect pests, and
for these reasons alone the spray
pump must be kept going, regardless
of any crop or no crop. We would
therefore urge most earnestly upon
owners of injured or fruitless trees,
not to become discouraged, but to give
their trees extra care, by pruning off
injured limbs, spraying, and most
thorough cultivation of the soil, for
they need it much more right now
then if in healthy condition. Good
result is certain to follow by the fruit
some of these trees may yet bear
this year being larger and
finer, and by reason of this extra care
such trees will start with renewed
viror and reward their owners for this
additional , work with an- abundant
crop the coming year.
Reverses are met with in all walks
of life the merchant, the banker, the
artisan 'and. grain farmer, all share
alike in off years, so to speak why
should the fruitgrower be exempt even
in this most favored state of ours?
Oregon fruits are finding favor in
many old markets, and with the new
markets opening up to us, the demand
is certainly increasing, but this
demand is only for first-class fruit, and
such fruit cannot be grown on neglect
ed and diseased trees. The up-to-date
fruitgrower who will give his best
thoughts, care and attention to his
trees at such a time as thn present, is
sure to win in the end, by abundant
crops and remunerative prices; hence
we would say to all orchardists
"Don't despair, don't be discouraged
but keep on right along, as if we ex
pected a most bountiful harvest, an
good results are certain to follow."

A MOVE FORWARD.
Dalles Citizen KespoDOed to the Call of
the Commercial Club.
Some time since The Dalles Com
mercial club issued a call for a meet
ing of the citizens to assemble at the
club rooms last '' Saturday night for
the purpose of considering the best
means for advancing the interests of
the city, and the call was responded to
by about 60 representative property
owners and business men, who assem
bled to discuss the best means for ad
vancing The Dalles. Judge Blakeley
president of the club, called the treat
ing to order about 9 o'clock, and Mr.
Farley was called upon to present
plan for raising a subsidy to encourage
manufacturing industries, which
generally, concluded to be the thing
that is needed.' Mr. Farley presented
bis plan in a concise manner, and it
met the approval of a majority present.
It is to raise a fund of $15,000 or $20,
000, so distributed that it will be
equitable. He proposes that an assess'
ment of $1 a foot front be levied upon
all property on Second street, and
proportionate amount upon property
on other business streets, an assess
ment of from $20 to 1200 on all busi
ness hoVises, $10 on professional men
and from $1 to $10 upon householders.
This fund he would have placed in the
hands of a competent committee com
posed of residents of the city, to be
offered as an inducement to investors

Dr. Pierce's magnificent " Golden Medical
Discovery," with its splendid blood -purify
ing, liver-toning, strength-creating power,
hurls the fortress of disease from its very
foundations, and searches and drives out
the lurking symptoms of weakness and de
bility from every secret hiding place in the
entire physical system of mankind.
The work of this errand " Discover" ia
thorough; it gives the health that is all
health; the strength that is solid and sub
stantial and lasting; not flabby fat; not false
stimulus; but genuine, complete, renewed
vitality and life-force.
" I had been a sufferer for fifteen years nearly
all the time," says Mrs. Sarah E. Taylor, of
Eureka. Greenwood Co., Kaos., in a friendlyletter
to Or. Pierce. "In August. 1896. was taken with
severe cramping pain in my stomach. The doc
tor here said it was due to gall-stones. He re
lieved me for a short time, and then there was a
hard lump about the size of a goose egg formed
in my right side. It became so sore I could
scarcely walk about the house, and I had no ap
petite. 1 consulted the best doctors in town and
they said medicine would do me no good. 1
gave np all hope of ever getting well again.
" You advised me to take your ' Golden Medical
Discovery ' and ' Pleasant Pellets,' which I did
according to directions. I began to feel better,
and my appetite came back. Now it is a little

who would inaugurate manufacturing
industries. The matter was well pre
sented by Mr. Farley, and in the dis
cussion that followed, there was only a
few who dissented, and those proposed
that it first be ascertained what class
of manufacturing be proposed, and
that the town proceed to raise a sub
sidy for a specific purpose.
However the majority appeared to
favor the proposition preseuted by Mr.
Farley, to raise a subsidy that might
be offered for any manufacturing in
dustry that would tend to assist in
increasing the business interests of
The Dalles, and a motion prevailed
authorizing the president of the club
to appoint a committee of five to solicit
subscriptions on Mr. Farley's plan of
assessment, to be held as a general
subsidy to be applied to any manufac
turing industry that may seem to be
advantageous.
The committee appointed are Messrs.
G J. Farley, E. Schanno, L. E. Crowe,
E. C. Pease and Al Bettingen. This
committee represents the two princi
pal interests that are morst interested
the property ownerson Second street
and the merchants Messrs. Schanno
and Bettingen being heavy property
owners, and Messrs. Farley, Pease and
Crowe representing the mercantile in
interest. They are all good, active
men who have direct interest in the
upbuilding of The Dalles, and that
they will succeed in securing a large
sum of money for progressive purposes
is certain. Last Saturday night cer
tainly marks an important date in the
history of The Dalles, for it will now
go ahead, and the hope that it will be
come a great manufacturing center
will be realized.

Another Pioneer Gone.
Brazil Savage, who died at his
home at Wamic on Friday of last
week, was one of the early pioneers of
the Pacific coas'. who pushed out into
the frontier and converted the wilder-,
ness into an empire. He was attracted
to the coast by the discovery of gold
in Cslifornia, and crossed the plains
in '49, engaging in mimug until '52,
when he returned to his home in the
"states" and brought his family out
the following year. Mr. Savage lo
cated near Oregon City, where he
improved a farm, but longing for
the freedom of frontier life, came East
of the mountains about 30 years ago,
and located on a farm near Wamic.
He had reached thf ripe old age of 73
and until recently was quite hearty,
but the past year had declined rapidly.
Deceased leaves a wife, one son and
three daughters, besides a large circle
of friends to mourn his loss.

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the eat . There .s only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
flamed condition of the mocous lining of the
Oustachiai Tube. When tnis tube gets in
flamed soy have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness
is the result, and unless the lnflamation ean be
taken out aud this tuoe restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing out an Inflamed condition of
the mocous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
se of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Hail's Catarrh Cure. Send
for circulars, tree.
