He has prune trees which never fail to bear a good crop. His strawberries sold for i cent per pound more than those produced at Lebanon, the strawberry center, at the Brownsville cannery. He is growing both himalaya and logan berries and purposes to largely in crease his acreage of these splendid fruits. He regards the flavor of himalaya a berry fully equal to the wild mountain blackberry. Mr. Gabriel has an ideal hill farm, neat and commodious buildings, all of which are electrically lighted.

The Lincoln Memorial The clouds that have surrounded the formulative processes of the Lincoln monument have cleared away. The contract made by the commission, of which ex-President Taft is the head, has b,een approved by the Secretary of War, and what ever friction might arise over the dispute of authority between the Commission and the Secretary’s office has been discounted in advance by the appointment of a joint re presentative of both bodies. As a result, the ground will be broken in Washington on Lincoln’s birthday for the greatest of all our national memorials—for a building which will in fact be a greater tribute than even that of the Washington monument. In short the Lincoln memorial will be the greatest structure evdr contemplated by the American people, in honor of its most illustrious martyr. I COME IN AND SEE US.
