MOSTLY WOMEM RESCUED.
The most appalling marine dis
aster ever known occurred last
Sunday night when the mam
moth White Star liner Titanic
collided with an iceberg off the
Newfoundland Banks.
Tbe Titanic, the largest and
finest steamship on the seas, was
supposed to have been invulner
able to disaster of any kind.
Now she lies two miles under
■water, many of the wealthiest
and most notable magnates in
the financial world going down
with her.
It is stated that the combined
wealth of the passengers would

CONSOLIDATED NORTHWEST FRUIT SELL
ING AGENCY.
Consolidation of the two move
ments to establish a general
Northwest fruit selling agency
at Portland has been effected.
The Northwest Fruit Exchange
has changed its by-laws to pro
vide for
ultimate nrutiali-
zation undercontrol of the
growers' unions which ship
through thee xehange. A com
mittee representing the Port
land Commercial Club, Chamber
of Commerce
and
Clear
ing House Association has inves
tigated the subject and recom
mends co-operaliun with the ex
change on the part of the press,
commercial organizations, banks
and the fruit growers. The
Portland hankers are arranging
to finance advauces to growers,
based on the market value of the
crop as fixed by the exchange.
Until two years ago the de
mand for Oregon and Washing
ton apples was so heavy that
buyers eagerly purchased crops
on the tree'. T ie in crease in
acreage is so enormous, how
ever, that without a strong co
operative selling agency the en
tire prosperity of the fruit in
dustry would be in danger.
Last year, hundreds of carloads
of apples, shipped by individuals
and local associations, were
sacrificed at auction in Eastern
markets for little more than
freight charges.
The prices secured for those
districts marketing through the
Northwestern* Fruit Exchange
were high and the growers re
ceived large and prompt returns.
Co-operation with the exchange,
as reorganized, has been assured
by the different commercial
bodies and a vigorous campaign
will he conducted to secure a
heavy tonnage. The fruit dis
tricts represented at the Port
land meeting were Rogue River,
Mosier, Walla Walia, Yakima,
Wenatchee, Cashmere, Spokane,
Lewiston and Boise. A branch
office of the exchange will he
established at Spokane, hut the
operating headquarters will l>e
built up at Fortland.
Uniting these two movements
means the salvation of the fruit
industry by building up one
strong selling agency.

RESETTING TREES.
Uniformly poor results have
followed li e rep!f.cing of trees
that died immediately by ether
trees of Lite same kind. But if
the hole is opened up in the fall
and allowed to Jie until in the
spring it is safe to then plant
out a tree of same kind as that
which died. The hole should be
opened ©ul a good deal wider and
deeper than necessary to receive
the new tree. The purpose
should be to get out a large .part of
the dirt around the root system
of the first tree that occupied
