Thc have done thwr work well, and their reports show that the commercial or chiirdisis of the entire valley are co operating In the work of eradicating all diseases and pests. The success which has been attained in the con trol of pear blight has been so strik ing, especially in very large orchards, that the writer desires at this time to voice his appreciation of the good work which has been done. It will be noticed in the above comment that mention hns iwrn made of the orchards not situated within our towns and villages where a far different state of affairs exists. There aro some notable cases where fruit growers owning small tracts within the city limit of the several towns in the valley have done very creditable work under most adverse conditions. It- is really surprising that they were aide to hold their own at all. Those who did are men who have no other business vlthln the city limits than that of taking care of their small orchards. Strictly speaking, the business man or shop keeper cannot look after tlv details of orchard fruit raising In the way that the orchardist would do It. Since this Is true the back lot la no place for growing fruit trees, and the front yard had bettor be given over to h'nadc trees, Instead of fruit, trees that cannot be classed as shade trees. The orchardist depends upon the pioduct of his fruit trees for his ex istence, while the business man In the city does not consider the few trees he may have ns any real asset, and, ns a matter of fact, they have no place iu his yearly balance sh'-et. The business man Is entirely depend ent upon the farmer for his welfare. We should like to ask why we have the several thriving towns In the Rogue River valley the answer Is easy; the value of the orchards, as well as their products have made these towns what they are. The oth er great resources surrounding these tow ns were here long In fon the or chards were planted, yet they did not. Recm to have the almost miracu lous effect upon their growth ns have the orchnrds. There Is but one conclusion: the man who owns fruit trees within the city limits must be willing to care for them ns does the practical orclinnl Ist or he will have to submit to tin Ir removal by the county Inspectors. I'nless ho can keep nut pear blkrht, scale and other diseases which are a menace to the commercial orchard, his trees must be cut down. The j county fruit inspectors have dmie everything possible to make the l.a"k j lot on hiirdiHt understand the ne ch slty of eradicating all (licenses, but ' much of bl i valuable time li'i been ! lost through the unwillingness, or In ability of the town orchnrdNt to co operate and do his duty. With so many trees In the towns given nbso- i lately no iittentlon, Instead of helm' a valuable asset they are In reality a menace to the fruitgrowing Industry of the i til Ire Rogue River valley. A tlioroin.ii Inspection and eradl literature which mny be had for the on this occasion, and Mr. VanDyko In asking. A federal officer has been, "Happy Days" was also at his best, stationed In the valley during the; To those who are following the past two years In order to help those progress of Mrs, gunuell's pupils, the desirous of getting tho very best In formation-on every phaso of fruit growing, and especially In the matter of eradiiating pear blight. This letter has been prepared In order to give anyone a chance to clean up before the Inspectors come, I wish to assure every delinquent that it will be much cheaper to have this work done themselves than to wait for a county officer to do It for him. A much neater Job of eradi cation may be done by tho owner himself than by an officer of the law who has little time for nice work. It is not the work of an Inspector to cut out blight, but rather to Instruct, ou would hardly expect the county to pay men to do tho actual work of (leaning up your orchnrds? It Is the inspector's place to order this work (?one ut your expense If you do not see fit to do It yourself. The fruit list' rests of the valley are dependent u;k 'i you for co-operntlon, and they are asking no more of you than Is j'ist.

The entertainment given by Mrs. dunnoU's pupils Tuesday evening was one of the merriest occasions for some time, "A Rox of Monkeys" kept tho audience In a perpetual gale of merriment, by no means sup pressed, for the frequent way It burst into vigorous appluuso showed how complete and spontaneous was the appreciation. Tho dignified Mrs. Ondego Jones was charmingly Im personated by Miss Ella Savage, whose perfect poise and grace nnd artful airs of the society lady won her much admiration. Miss Merle Caldwell was made for her part, the breezy Western girl. She possesses the true snap to do full Justice to the role. Ralph Looney, tho bash ful boy, evoked continuous laughter, as also did Miss LaCosta Mangum In the role of the English girl attempt ing to acquire the fascinating charms j of the American type. Lester Co ! burn surprised his many friends by I the remarkable versatility he showed j In taking ho completely his many I parts. He was equally at home as tbe Western mining man, tho Eng lish butler, the villain nnd tho old man of the charade. What the "Ilachelor Maids" lacked in humprous situations and action, It made tip In Its pleasing plcturesqne uess and In tho Hklll with which It was done. (Irent adroitness had been displayed In tho selection of girls for the parts. Miss Cnldwc was again the brer-sty type, the lo- I I , .1 I I ...

He believes that Pickett creek will 1)0 one of tho best mining camps within a few years. Ho Is developing 1 property thero and he Is encour aged with the prospects. Ho has liiven a tunnel In the mountain side following a cross lead. When the egular lead Is reached ho will fol ow that and by this, means reach a nuch greater depth In tho mountain. It is largely copper with some gold and he hopes within a reasonable time to uncover a considerable amount of paying oro. It Is true that Pickett creek Is being much talked of and It is not Impossible that the camp will turn out as well as Mr. Martin thinks. DEAN'S A wiso old owl lived.
