Oh, I'm from Colorado, and tody I saw a train, ,
That had D. R. G. lettered on a car. .',.
I felt like ahouting "Hello" and say "partner, all again,
Twas like greetings from an old friend from afar.
When I saw these simple letters, I was standing near the track,
And my heart beat as it hasn't beat for years
Then I wished for Just a minute some big wind would blow me back,
For my eyes were very near to weak'ning tear..
It recalled to me the faces that I'd known long, long ago,
As It stood upon the track and smiled at me.
Those letters seemed to be happy friends from way back home

in the
Merlin district, a great deal of which
i has already been surveyed Into 5, 10
! and 20-acre tracts. They will also
have for sale 2, 3, 5 and 10-acre
tractB of the 3000 acres recently pur
chased by Reed & Reed, of Kansas
City, and F. F. and S. D. Williams,
of Portland, and Mr. Sherman, of
Grants Pass, under the name of the
Rogue River Orchard Co., at prices
and terms to meet all business pro
positions. Messrs. Sherman and
Coutant also have the Merlin town
site, which will be put on the mar
ket.
To handle the business at that end,
offices have been opened at Merlin.
The Grants Pass offices will re
main In rooms 9, 10 and 12 of the
Masonic Temple, which have been oc
cupied by Mr. Sherman ever since
the temple was built eight years ago.
An office will also be maintained at
Woodvllle.
The following is what they have
to say In the way of announcing their
undertaking:
We believe In the state of Oregon
and the Rogue River valley, and
particularly do we believe that this
section In whhh we live Is the choic
est prtrt of it all. By taking the
swcepHtakes at. the National Apple
Were you ever In a stranger's town, and saw a strangers
That looked as though it might be one from heme.
And you think you'd like to see this stranger once In a went,
Merely to keep you from feeling so alone?
Well, this freight car seemed to meet me and to grasp my outstretched hand,
And to tell me that I was not all alone,
That I was not the only one In this far off Btranger s land,
But that he and others here were far from home.
Now, it isn't very often that a freight car meets you bo,
As it stands with alien wheels upon the track
And If tomorrow morning it is there, and I'm still broke,
I'll hit this side door pullman and go bacK.

the home of the apple as It Is of the
near and the Flaming Tokay grnpe.
'jThc times are chatming and with
.time men must change tin 1 1- business
methods.
I'ru't growing Is: no longer the
difficult and Inti'ica'e n tnl-iti ivlni,
that, it bus been In years past, and In
Hie l;o;Mie River valley tills Is par
ticularly true for the reason that the
I'nltcd States government has Prof.
P. .1. O'Gara, one of tli best Inform
ed fruit men of the Cnlted States,
permanently stationed In (lie valley
to further the fruit Industry; the
agricultural college nt Corvallis furn
ishes literature and Information free
on nny matter In which they are con
sulted; the county has J. F. Burke,
who Is a thorough horticulturist,
looking after the orchardlHts' Inter
ests In the county, and be Is always
ready and glad to give assistance to
beginners or anyone else desiring It.
The Rogue River Orchard company
has succeeded In securing the serv
ices of F, I). Klstnann as their hor
ticulturist and It will be his duty to
Instruct and aid all buyers of tracts
from the company In the Merlin dis
trict. With all these facts and advan
tages before us we are going to nd
vocate that fruit growing In this lo
cality Is an easy problem for the be
ginner and, like any other business,
all that Is required for success, Is n
reasonable amount of diligence and
I the utlllation of the Information
; that Is to be had for the asking, and
J that fruit growing In this valley Is
not of necessity a fanner's proposi
tion hut more particularly a busi
ness man's.
; Our customers are going to get
the vvoMh of tlielr money, and one
of the flist things we have to say is
that we don't Intend to biing a lot
i of people here and settle them where
jthey cannot make a living. We don't
want a lot of people to mine, become
; discouraged and disgusted and leave
to give the valley a black eye. It has
been proven time and again that a
man can make a bountiful living eti
T acres with Irrigation. We Intend
to advocate that fruit trees can be
grown suiMsfully wltlout water, but
that water Is a brio lit after the trees
come Into hearing
and land them on places where they
cannot make a living for want of
water.
We will preach the doctrine that
5, 10 or 20 acres of this land are suf
ficient to take care of a family in
luxury when It Is properly planted
to orchard or vineyard, irrigated and
In bearing.
We will advocate that our rich
river bottom lands are particularly
adapted to the growth of pears and
Yellow Newtown pippins and Wine
sap apples.
We will advocate that the red
soils are particularly adapted to the
growth of Tokay grapes, pears, Splt
zenberg and all other red apples,
peaches and all small fruits.
We will advocate that we believe
with irrigation the granitic lands
within the next ten years will prove
themselves the most valuable for
certain kinds of fruit, vegetables
and alfalfa of any soil In the Rogue
Rlvey valley. That it is the easiest,
to work and can be gone onto nt any
time of the year. That. It is well
drained and always sanitary.
We Intend to advocate further that
we have no soil in the Rogue River
valley but what is valuable for the
growth of all kinds of vegetables and
small fruits with irrigation.
We will advocate that there is
money to be made by our land buyers
In raising apples, but we will be con
servative In our statements; Instead
of telling them Ihey will receive from
$'2(i00 to $:iono per aire, which Is
being done every year In the valley,
even without Irrigation, we will en
courage them that they can get from
$200 to $000 per acre annually out
of apples, pears, crapes and peaches.
We will proclaim the fact that the
Rogue River 'alley excels the world
In the growth of pears.
We are going to Inform them that
It has 'een thoroughly demonstrated
that this locality excels In the 1'nlted
States In the growth of the famous
Flaming Tokay grape.
If there was nothing else raised,
any one of these three products
would soon mnke our valley famous.
We also Intend to advert Ise that
this locality will equal, If not excel,
In the growth of peaches; the same
Is true of cherries and strawberries
and nil other small fruits.
We believe that Giants Pass
should and will be the metropolis of
the Rogue River valley; that It Is
geographically located and In all
ways entitled to and will he the me
tropolis of Southern O'-eg.ui.

W. F. Hill, the purchaser of the
big Riggs ranch at the mouth of the
Applegate and who Is expected here
within a few weeks to commence the
development of the property, has
been proposed by his home paper, the
Semi-Weekly News, at Huntingdon,
Pa., as a candidate for congress. We
clip from that journal its article on
this subject;
"Sentiment in this congressional
district seems to be assuming pretty
strong proportions in favor of a
change In congressman from this
district. The dissatisfaction with Mr.
Focht is founded on a number of
reasons and influence 1b being
brought to bear upon Past St. Master
Hill to become the candidate for
congress in this district. It is believed
that his broad experience with public
questions and wide acqualntancp with
men and affairs, together with his
national, if not international, reputa
tion qualify him to become a most
efficient and creditable representa
tive not alone of the agricultural but
of all other interests In this district.
And it is hoped that he will not re
fuse to become a candidate.
"We believe the wishes of the peo
ple should prevail in this as In all
matters and from personal acquaint
ance and knowledge we do not hesi
tate to say that this district has never
had and cannot now secure an abler
or more popular congressman than
Mr. Tllll would make us.
"We heartily and unreservedly join
In calling him to this public service.
He has training and qualifications
that make him by all odds the
strongest man we have In the dis
trict. Huntingdon county Is entitled
to name the candidate for congress
next time and should we succeed in
prevailing upon Mr. Hill to accept
tbo nomination, every county In the
district would, wo are sure, take
Pleasure and piid,. i helping to
I THE TWO HORSE BRAND
(km mss
elect him and so reflect honor upon
the district."
Mr. Hill would undoubtedly make
an able and useful member of con
gress, honoring both his district and
his state, and yet, while we know
that his election would in no way re
tard the development work on his
great ranch near Grants Pass, his
time spent at the national capital
would be a disappointment to tho
people of Josephine county.
World Approaching Its Knd.
General Booth of the Salvation
Army paid In an address in London
a few days ago that not only one
nation but all nations seemed banded
together as one great people of re
bellion, transgression and wickedness
until some think I believe with a
considerable degree of probability
that we may be approaching rapidly
the end of all things, witn similar
results, but far surpassing in magni
tude, anything that has gone before,
that all things may he wound up, hut
that instead of there being a deluge
of water sweeping the world and its
inhabitants, there will he destruction
by fire.
People who do nothing are always
wondering what they will do next.
Tony was on lis way home and in a
lonely plai e i :e v. as met by the wom
an, who :n walking. When she ap
proached him ;iie cried out as if in
fear and f'il as if fainting. Lenzo
gallantly steppe,! forward and stoop
ed to give assi . lance. As he did so he
found himself race to face with a re
volver. The woman laughed and
arose, bidding l.en.o to stand still.
He did so without, effort. She added
that It was time that he hand over
i
his money. j
"I was a little slow, I think," Len-j
zo told the police, "and she reached1
on nnd searched my pockets with
one hand while still holding the re-'
volver In the other.
'Now, beat it down the street,'
she said, when she had cleaned out
all I had, taking my purse nnd watch.
I bent It all light, not looking back
until I had gone half a block. Then
I stopped and watched her. She hur
ried to the west end of the viaduct
and entered n waiting tsxicah nnd
nway she went."
