L«e, of M o n m o n th , is visit­ ing his d a u g h t e r , Mrs. Ciiariie Tate. Our grocers inform us this week that the local apples are entirely out of the market, and have been for some time. The apples we are eating are being shipped in from Hood River, and we are paying $1.85 a box for them, or in small quantities we get four for a nickel. Those we have seen are nothing to brag on either—in fact we should not care to eat one, but some of us have to have to have an apple now and then during the win­ ter, or we think we would perish. Of course these ap­ ples are up to Hood River’s reputation, inasmuch as they are wrapped up in tissue paper and are free from imperfections and worms, but are hard and tasteless. That Polk county, the natural home of good flavored and perfect apples, should this early in the season have her local supply entirely exhausted, is not saying much for the orchard work we have been bragging on so much. While it is true that our young orchards have not yet come into bearing, it is surprising that our reno­ vated old orchards are not sufficient to supply any local demand that might occur during the entire season. In one or two years from now there will probably be an abundant supply of all varieties, and at a price where the averaged incomed person can avail himself of their juicy flavor, but that does not help us in the present in­ stance. Polk county should be shipping apples to less favored sections, rather than having to bring them in to put in our own mouths. We want to be sending out the goods and bringing in the money to reach the acme of progress and financial prosperity. The quicker we get to doing so the better for us all. The same is true of many other things, such as butler, eggs, etc. The Itemizer is here to commend the action of our city council in deciding to put the Carnegie library on the site now owned by the city, and not purchase addi­ tional land on which to erect it. No more convenient or sightly place could be found for the erection of such a building than the corner opposite the Gail hotel, and for the city in the present state of her finances to go to the additional expense of buying another site was not a good idea. It is true that before many years a new city hall will be needed to keep up with the growth of our city, but on Railroad street will be left plenty of room for such an edifice, providing it is put to a proper height. The city now owns sufficient land for all her needs in the future, and the location could not possibly be improved upon, Despite the fact that another town only 25 miles away was holding a chicken show at the same time, Dal­ las had by considerable the best chicken show she has ever held. There were more birds, nearly 300 in all, and the quality was considerably above the average shown, fully demonstrating that such meetings tend toward im­ provement in the flocks of both the experienced bird fancier, and those who are comparatively new at the business. Those having the best birds on exhibition found a ready sale for all they wanted to dispose of, many of them going to persons who live in other and remote counties. Progress is being made in the campaign to interest children in agricultural education in Oregon. State Superintendent Aide-man is sending out letters to breed­ ers and producers of the state asking for prizes to be awarded to school pupils who will make the boot exhib­ its of farm products at the fairs next fall. C. D. Nairn, of Amity, has been the first to respond and he will give a thoroughbred Scotch collie as a first prize for an ex­ hibit of vegetables, corn, etc., at the state fair.
