I Not only does the heavy snowfall in the mountains in sure ample wafer for placer mining, but it means a good flow of water during the coming season in streams. Apple growers have been praying for cold weather, claiming the records of years sjiow that a fancy apple crop only follows a cold wilder and that frost is necessary to drive the. sap into the soil to insure flavor and keeping qual ities fo the apple. -As a result ol the present winter the growers expect to duplicate records made in 1905, 1907 and 1909, banner apple crops every alternate season being the rule. A little cold weather is a welcome change to all of us. We have so many warm and pleasant days that a, taste of winter is needed fo make us appreciate our average cli mate. But the snow will last but a day or two, and the cold de part as suddenly as it came. In another month spring will lie wearing her green witchery and ere long the orchards and hillsides be a mass of fragrant bloom.

Senator Barrett's memorial follews: "Whereas, the withdrawal of over 1C, 000, P00 acres of Inntl In the state of Oregon for forest conservation con stitutes a serious obstacle to tho set tlement and development of tho state and deprives the state and several j counties thereof of vast tracts of tax able lands, and these resources are being conserved for tho benefit of tho people o fthe whole of the United States. Itl s therefore lncquitablo to place tho burden of providing these resources so largely upon tho people of this state.
