Others may catch bigger fish but for numbers he outclasses bis fellows very emphatically. Every day for two weeks, Pat went to the river and each day be would return with a string of little trout reaching in to the hundreds. During this season of fishing, Pat says he has caught 2744 trout. Most of these be has given away to bia friends. Last Friday he had a little string of 144 trout, mostoftlem little fellows about six inches long, although tbsre were a few of larger growth. Tat says he caught them in two hours and half. A fish a minute seems pretty fast fishing. Pat knows the river like a book and knows just exactly where and how to fish. He can judge the quality of a water hole by look ing at it and when he spots a good one, he reaps a harvest. He uses salmon eggs for bait and guts almost every nibbler. Stories of bis fishing sound so large that many would find them difficult of belief only that he submits the fish as evidence and they cannot be denied. Southern Oregon Apple. A fruit buyer for the Ixndon markets, who was in Medford last week, made an assertion which might seem ambiguous to many of us who are not familiar with conditions of fruit elsewhere. The assertion was in substance that the great Rogue River Valley, in Southern Oregon, United States of America, pro duced a Newtown Pippin apple that could not be equalled any place In the world. Gee, but the world is a big place but when an assertion like this comes from one who does nothing else year in and year out but buy fruit for one of the best markets in the world, s can do nothing less than put it down as a cold fact, especially when there can be no motive. Hunan for Southern Oregon's yellow apples! She's a prize winner with the whole world as a competitor. there are thousands of acres of land in Southern Oregon which will produce these apples and upon which there is not now a Iruit tree growing. That horticulture is a profitable pursuit in Southern Oregon is not qiieslioued by people who have lived bare for the last five yssrs aud have noted the illiniums amount of money made by the growers. Medford Mail. New Uniforms for O. N. G. Last Spring Adjutant-General Gauten bein made a requisition on the Quartermaster-General of the United Stales for 1500 khaki uniforms for us of the Ore gen National Guard. The riquisitiun was disallowed for the reason that the new regular Army requirement needed all such uniforms ss wsre available. General Gsntenbeiu persisted in the matter, and made another requisition this Fall, which met with more success. Tje rtquisilion was granted, aod the 15)0 uniforms were shipped, and have now reached here. The advantages of these khaki uni forms are their auitablity for field ser vice, and they can be washed at one fourth the expense of laundering blue woolen nuilorms. This, in case of a reg iment, is a considerable item. The new uniforms will not be issued at present, as there is no immediate ne cessity for them. Hut they will be issued to company commanders in ample time for field and camp duty next Hummer. The Chief of Ordnance of the Army has recommended that Krsg-Jorgeoseo rifles be issued to lbs National Guard as soon as possible, and General Ganten bein considers the recommendation an important entering wedge towirdthe carrying out of the plan. The present gun need by the National Guard is the old Springfield 45, and all the guards men think it is high time tbey were brought up to date in the matter of weapons.
