Cor vallis—That the district about A storia is a rich one for development along the lines of vegetable gardening is the dictum of Prof. A. G. B. Bouquet, upon his return from a trip to that city , where he was called to consult w ith those interested in scientific cul­ tural methods. “ The climate and soils in general are more suited to the growing of crops th a t do best in the cold seasons, such as cauliflower, cabbage, celery, onions, and practically all small fruits! rath e r than such crops as watermelons, cantaloupes or peaches, although some peaches have been grown there.” said Mr. Bouquet, discussing his trip. “ Mr. R ist has built up a big repu­ tation for some of the finest straw ber­ ries ever grown, on the upland soil, while a num ber of growers have been making large profits on the lowlands, which are for the most p art tide lands, growing vegetables such as I mentioned. Mr. B. H. Miles, of Astoria, grew some celery last year which produced a t the rate of $2,000 per acre, and the demand w as very much larger than the supply. Chinese growers are dem onstrating w ith great success the possibilities of th e climate and soil. One difficulty the growers there have to meet is th a t of a home m arket, since they have no encouragement from local merchants, who prefer to make shipments by w a­ te r from Portland. The college is sending the farm ers of the district lit­ eratu re descriptive of the beat scien­ tific methods in gardening, and insti­ tu te s for their further assistance are b eing planned. There are thousands of acres of good cranberry lands there still aw ait­ ing developm enL There are very good opportunities for young men to go down and take charge of these lands. At the present tim e dairying and vegetable growing are making an ex- sh ap es ishes and worms, need have no fear th a t they cannot be disposed of, no m atter w hat the fru it buyer may say ju st now. “ It is always the buyer’s purpose to pronounce the crop the largest and fiiiest ever known. I t helps to beat down th e price. “ In some localities, (E astern ) un­ sprayed fru it has in some manner escaped serious dam age by insects and is fairly good, b ut as a whole the worms have consumed th e bulk of un­ sprayed apples so th a t they will be unfit for storage. h “ The bulk of the space in eastern storage houses has not been constract- ed for, and very few apples have gone into storage yet. The amount of storage space still available is a good indication of the am ount of fru it th a t will be harvested, and it will certainly pay a good profit to hold all apples that are in any way o f good q u ality .’’ U SE ROAD DRAG NOW .

Ellers, a car­ penter. who was removing the bricks preparatory to laying a wooden floor. When the bricks were removed El­ lers noticed a black subsoil. Digging down he unearthed decayed pieces of wood and old hand-made nails, then pieces of bones began to make their appearance The condition of tba bones indicated that they had been burled half a century or more, but tha oldest residents of the locality can re­ call no mysterious disappearance of a woman.
