'.vci-ptian only of .
uicy nave found everything In
n very satisfactory im(!iiiuu. 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. Clean up your back lot orchard
and help to boost tho Rogue River

Dramatic Kiitcrtuinnient a Success.
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-

gratulate all upon their success.

Eon Martin, of Pickett Creek, wns
In town on Tuesday and made an In
teresting taJk on the wonderful de
velopments going on In his locality.
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.

Don't forget to slop tho hogs and

Love thy neighbor, treat him kindly;
Always let him hnvo bis way

Ho Is right, whate'er ho say.

When ho carves upon your front

Fondly stroko his little head.
Don't fool your money away for

Recently tho question was argued
In a Denver women's club where all
