The Sunday Oregoni.ir. ptibliwli'.'
tlie following from the pen of Jon
titlinn Palmer, their Chicago cone
spoil dent:
Tlie name I'otler Palmer, irrevoc
ably associated with Chicago's so
cial, business and hotel life, bids tu'r
to bu identified just as firmly soine
day willi the greatest pear orchard
in tho world, in the famous Itoguc
Kivor valley, of Oregon. In a pel
aee in or near Medford the exigen
cies of businesH may install Potter
Palmer 111., grandson of the one-.'
great merchant prince and of Mr...
Jlcrlliu llonoro Palmer, the first wo
man of Chici.gn.
The Palmer family, guided by he
shrewd judgment of Mrs. Palmer,
ban invested many hundreds of thou
sands of dollars in Chicago realty.
As if ihe desired limit had beep
reached in that direction, Ihe Pui
mer attention is now turning to
furuiH and orchards. Iitjivy pur
chases have been made in Flornh
where oranges and other products
will be cultivated. Hut of still great
er interest lo Chicago is the iniineine
pear orchard projected by the Pal
mers in the Ilogue Hiver valley. Thi
interest rises partly from the fact
(hut other wealthy Chicagoaiis have
discovered this "land of opportunity"
and have acted on the discovery
in the most practical way possible.
Ilouore Palmer, eldest sou of Mrs.
Totter Talmer, was the scout who
fared forth a few years ago to look
upon the lands round about Medfo.-d
and (o report back his findings. He
dreamed of apples as the king of
treasure to be taken from this val
Jev. Mrs. Palmer followed, discussed
tlie country potentially with those
who, know and finally made up h.r
mind that poar.-i instead of apples
should be the Palmer care. She
foresaw things in a large wav and
entered with enlhusiaMn into the en
terprise of rearing the greatest pear
orchard in the world. In coiihi
iucuce lf00 acres of bind on either
side of the Kogiio river are to be de
voted to pear culture.
On one of the foothills, placed
Isiutlng variolic counties In holding
their fairs, wns presented In the house
yesterday by Kepresontatlvo Bryant
of Multnomah. - It has the ondorse-i
niont of the live stock Interests.
The bill gives tho power to tho
county court to appropriate f 2000 for
tho purpose of holding an agricultu
ral fair and also empowers tho courts
to appoint a superintendent. Provi
sion Is iiiuilo for the formation of a
district by any two counties for the
purposo of holding a fair. Of the
$2000 appropriated by each county,
nt least two-thirds must he used for
meduli: and vnrds as prizes for the
bom display of live stock or agilcul
tural products. No portion of the ap
propriation may bo used as prizes In
speed contests of any kind.
Several hills have already been pre
sented asking state aid for county
fairs. Ono of these, nuking for $1000
for tho Yamhill county fair, was re
ported favorably with the ainendinont
that the county contribute a like sum.
The bill was then referred to the
ways and means committee. Action
upon this and similar requests will
he probably deferred until the fate
of the Bryant bill Is known.
MODIFICATION UNLIKELY.
(Continued from Pag !
them -at least $100,000. Of course
tho committee will not very gladly
do anything of the kind, because
there Is a pile of monoy being asked
for from everywhere, and yet, some
thing will he done for Astoria.
WHEELING, W. Vu., Jan. 23.
Heavy blows were dealt hero today
