The experience of the present season will bo a great help in future and we may gain by it in the long run. The Vale Oriano issued a spe cial 24 page paper on last Satur day that was quito creditable. The edition was nicely illustrated with half-tone cuts of various scenes in Vale and Malheur coun ty. Such enterprise is commend able and the people of that town and county should appreciate such work as it will advertise that section in a much better manner than the pamphlet system. The definite announcemet of Mr. Stevens that J. J. Hill is back of the Oregon Trunk road up Deschutes has given it such a standing that it has gained pres tige and therefore better support. The people of the interior have confidence in Mr. Hill and feel confident of securing relief in the way of transportation, in the very near future. Mr. Hill will not stop with Deschutes, but will branch out This office is in receipt of a letter from Mrs. A. George which says that her fruit crop will be quite good this season. She has at least 100 gallons of berries drying on the bushes as she had not had time to pick them. Her Siberian crabs she describes as resembling weeping willows, the branches being so heavily laden with fruit that they bend down and completely cover the trunk of the trees. She ha3 8 large trees of this variety. She has 16 other crab trees well loaded. The prunes are very good. The Ben Davis apple will be an aver age crop, but the best is the Yellow Transparent She writes: "I have five trees that would make you hungry to look at just now, as the big limbs are bend ing down on all sides. They will be ready to eat in a week and I shall send you some if I get a chance." We are going to see that she has the chance: INDEPENDENCE DEVELOPEMENT CO. Bill Percival is the hot air ped dler for the above concern which was organized here the first of the week and is composed entire ly of Independence men, who have just taken up about 3000 acres of Harney county land. A large number of people from the Willamette valley town, were among our land seekers during the past two weeks and several secured deserts adjoining and others will likely come out when these boys get back home. Mr. Percival is "of the jolly bunch and he is more than joshing when he suggested the Develop ment Co. for they can certainly work to advantage by pooling their interests. Among those to file were James Hanna, Pearl Alexander, Wm. Percival, two Sperling Bros., Claude Hubbard, Lymon Damon, Dave Dove, E. Irvine, Mr. Mac intosh and Mr. Rice. Several of these men are prominent in business in their home town and are very favorably impressed with the possibilities of this sec tion. They hope to interest others upon their return. W. E. Craven, D. A. Hodge, I. N. Jones, C. L. Fitchard and J. J. McKinnon were among the Independence people who came in but they "'got cold feet" and without going out into the coun try to see it after making the trip in, returned homo on the following stage. It will be in teresting to hear Percival and his bunch hand it to those fellows when they get home. WALKING FOR WAGES.
