According to all reports, the east end of the county, the apple growers in this section have been hard hit by the sudden change in temperature and the heavy frosts, during the last week or ton days. A considerable part of the crop had already been placed out of danger, but there was a large quantity of apples picked and ready for packing in the orchards when the weather changed and it is expected that these will be unfit for shipment now. . ' In the west end of the county tiie damage to fruit will not be es great because of the relatively smaller crop, but many of the farmers who have been planning on reaping large re turns from their potato acreage this year find It almost a total loss. The frost has reached several inches into the ground and many of the tubers are frozen. Yakima report that a sudden drop in temperature has frozen 2$ carloads of apples in the Yakimavalley. Thou sands of boxes of apples, still on the ground or standing in open packing sheds, were badly frozen. There are frozen apples in every part of the val ley hut more in the Naches than in any other section. ' In his anxiety to save his crop Sun day night, Walter Arnold put a fire in his packing shed that got beyond con trol in the night, burning the shed and its contents. The loss was 32500.

Inspector Cunningham went over both the proposed routes one from La Grande by way of meacnam to Pendleton and the other way by way of Elgin and Toll Gate to Milton and reported to the District Forester at Portland that the first road's rouie was not a good one but that one would prolaUy be worked out that could be made feasible; while the second road. the one in which local people are more interested, is entirely feasible and needed. Mr. Cunningham advised the people and the courts of. Union,: Umatilla and Wallowa counties to concentrate their efforts on one of the roads first so fur as federal aid is concerned. - It now eppears, however, that the La Crande-Pend'.cton road will be assisted by the state and the Elgin Milton road by the government for estry service, as this latter road Jles argely nithin the federal reserve while the first road does not , The Elgin Recorder believes the prospects for the two roads is now good and invites comments from other papers and persons interested.
