■' Coquille Jerald. WEDNES DAT, JAN. 16,1907, Apples, red and yellow, bearing on their burnished coats the glint of departed Summer days, and in their juices the storid essences of bright sunshine, timely moisture and balmy air o f Oregon, are on ex hibition in connection with the an nual convention, now in progress, o f the State Horticultural Society, in this city. This exhibit is the most convincing argument yet ad vanced in support of the contention that Oregon is unexcelled as an ap plegrowing state, and that one sec tion of the state is superior to an other in the possibilities of growing toothsome, beautiful and clean ap ples. The layman, viewing the dis play, wonders bow, where excellence rules the product of every section, the judges are going to be able to award the prize offered for the “ best specimens.”— Oregonian. Next to President Roosevelt, who is at work every moment he is in the White House is the President's Secretary, Mr. Leep. Besides as sisting the President in the recep tion of officials and visitors, he is required to read anywhere from three Hundred to a thousand letters a day, not only read them but an swer them, if not personally, by di recting the several stenographers the natures of the replies to be made. Most of the letters, of course, are intended for the Pres ident but he sees and answers only a few of the important ones, the others being signed by the secre tary. Every letter is answered but in most cases the fewest possible number of words is used, just enough to be polite and show the writer that the letter has received attention. Many people write let ters to the President just to secure his autograph and are disappointed when the reply is signed by the Secretary. There are communica tions on every conceivable subject. One man In Montana wants to tell the President of a copper mine another desires to give him an inter est in a patent, a third wishs him to accept a box of pills while others write for advice and assistance in many ways. Thus it can be seen that the office of Secretary to the President is no “cinch.’’ Coos County shipped 92,000,000 feet of lumber during the year just closod. This is and item for an un developed sparsely-settled county is sufficient to give us some idea of what we may expect from that rich land whon the completion o f the railroad and an improved steamer service will admit of the expansion which the resources of the country will make ccrtnin as soon at trans portation facilities are forthcoming Despite the transportation handicap which Coos County has suffered, her output of valuable products has not been limited to lumber, for she has also sent to the outside markets a vast amount of coal, fruit, fish, dairy and other products.—Oregon, ian.
