damage here is not so great as
has been reported in Portland
papers, and it is only reasonable
to suppose that the person who
gave out the report that most of
the fruit and some of the trees
had been killed, did so without
first thoroughly informing him­
self on the subject.
J P. Carroll, Fruit Inspector
for Wasco County, recently made
the following statement to the
writer—unofficial because he had
not completed his investigations
in the entire county.
Mr. Car-
roll says:
“ I have made a partial exami­
nation of the fruit conditions in
Mosier district and find that
while the peach and apricot
crop will be a failure this year,

are under way and projected in

completed, the town will present
a different appearance.
E. N. Stroup is erecting a sub­
stantial frame building 40x70
feet, the lower floor o f which
will be used as a general mer­
chandise store, the upper story
as a lodge room and dance hall.
This is at present the largest and
most imposing structure in town
and is evidence of Mr. Stroup’s
business sagacity and progress-

Mr. Guy Wilson has about com­
pleted an up-to-date bungalow
which, aside from J. N. Mosier’s
residence will be the most
attractive house in town.
J.
Mosier will soon finish
the house he recently bought of
Mr. Hunter, and Mr. John Evans
will erect a house on his lot ad­
joining his present residence.

Alaska-Yukon Fair.
The Dalles Chronicle Is inaug­
urating a contest which is at­
tracting much interest through­
out the county and which will
add many new subscribers to
that hustling paper. They pro­
pose to send four young ladies,
free of all expense to them, to
the Alaska-Yukon Exposition at
Seattle. To the young lady who
secures the greatest number of
votes in her respective district,
will be given this free trip. The
three young ladies in Mosier who
have entered the contest are the
Misses Elsie Denny, Gertrude
Davenport and Mary Middle-
swart. Mosier and Dufur are in
the same division and it is re­
ported that the Dufurites say
they do not intend to let a Mosier
girl win the prize, and are work­
ing hard to send one of their
girls to the fair.
Very good.
We do not know at present how
many votes any one of our girls
has to her credit, but we predict
that a Mosier giri will “ come un­
der the wire” a winner. Here’s
luck anyhow.
