RECORD APPLE YIELD MADE
WALLA WALLA, Wash., Nov. 4.
(Special.) One of the record apple
yields of the Valley is that reported by
E. 0. Rader, of the State Line district,
who has established what is believed to
be a new mark for production.
Mr. Rader has 40 trees and they aver
age 32 boxes to the tree. These apples
are worth $1.25 a box at the figure' un
der the present market. The estimate
of 50 cents a box for getting them
ready for market leaves him 75 cents a
box clear. This means $24 a tree or
nearly $1000 for the 40.
Just as good yields, and many bet
ter ones, have been reeorded in
Wallowa Countv."
Valley View Orchard Acreage fwill
be planted 50 trees to the acre, and
pruned, trimmed and cultivated for
three years for the present price
per acre.
The closer to some good town and a good market the bet
ter. Land has made more wealthy men in Wallowa County
thai any other thing. Land is worth more around Enter
prise than it was last year, and it will be worth more next
year, and the next and the next. SUch is the experience of
every country. Many men can remember the time when the
Sand Ridge or hill land in Grande Ronde Valley was consid
ered worthless. Now the biggest and best apple orchards
in Union county are on the Sand Ridge. Look what the peo
pleare doing on the Hill or up-lands of Wallowa county.
They are growing all kinds of fruit, even peaches, where a
few years ago nothing but bunch grass grew. Go among
the farmers on the hill land north of Enterprise and see
what they are doing. Good apples are grown successfully
in the Leap country, and in the Elk Mountain country, They
are grown on Prairie Creek, on Alder Slope, and right in the
town of Enterprise. Apple land, close to market, is the sur
est land to increase in value of any in the county.
THOUSANDS OF TREES
Shipments of thousands of trees
are just now being received and de
livered to the people of Wallowa
county by the different nurseries.
It is an established fact that this
county will become- a banner apple
growing section of the Northwest.
Skeptics who saw the exhibits at
the late County Fair are now pre
paring to plant fruit trees.
Those who wait will later be buy
ing high priced orchards instead of
having one of their own to sell or
market the fruit from.

ELECTION OF WEST.
It was not a personal triumph for
Oswald West, .though he la a c'onn,
deserving man with a splendid record
of public service.
It was not a personal defeat of Jay
Bowerniam, for the most' searching.'

It was simply a rebuke .to the' as

If there had been no assembly, and
Jayi Bowermon had won lm tj'e open
