Tho Wilder menu! is the Nobel prize of the fruit world. It was provided for by a trust fund left in 1886 by the late .Marshall P. Wilder, scientist and nomologist, with instructions that It was to bo awarded to a new fruit only after exhaustive Investigation had pro duced proof of that fruit's supreme merit. . Tho Kalnlor npplo originated In the Yakima valley. It is a new yet an old appla. . Old because there are at the present time a number of trees In heavy and continuous bearing. It Is a new fruit in the sense that Its com mercial importance, Its distinctive fea tures and Its unusuully high quality as a fruit have but rocently been ap preciated nnd made known to tho pub lic at largo. Three boxes of the 192ft crop were exhibited at the Washington State fair at Yakima late In September, 1921, and the Rainier attracted much attention and comment on Its unusual quality and perfect condition..

The quality of the fruit much resem bles tho Delicious but is of finer tex ture' and better flavor. Tho Rainier Is an exceptionally long keeper and does not show a tendency to become mealy. It is a dessert apple of highest order.

Thursday morning I received two copies of tho Pacific Record Herald, editor, Delbert Fehl, associate editor, IJ. F. Lindas, In which is published a part of a very readablo article by tho editor-in-chief boosting Medford as the center of the universe, which was very proper, but then on the next page was an anonymous article, "Thoughts From tho Chimney Cor ner." giving Medford such nn over hauling ns if It was true, would make those who live there feel a terrible nnuHca of the stomach on account of having to drink the water that Is brought from Fish Lake after it hos been spread over tho land above the dam, 'that is, contaminated. After the arrangements were mado to sup ply Medford with pure water from Little Butte creek it was discovered that u company had practlcnlly pre empted the water supply of Medford and woh building a dam across Fish Lako nnd when too late to remedy tho evil the citizens of Medford dis covered that ' tho dam was hacking the water over tho adjacent country, covered by "old barns, manure piles, discarded garbage, decayed trees and other vegetable matter and this I polluted water was going Into tho pipe tnnt supplied the city with drinking wntre." In a short time after tills was discovered a howl -was raised, but soon tho administration in the city affairs was changed and every thing went on smoothly, but j now thero Is another chaugo in the po-! Iltlcnl affaira' of the city and who knows put tho "Old Pioneer" who wrote tho article may not bo nn old soro head that has been disappointed by tho election tho 7th day of No vember. But nt any into tho pub llcatlon of such nn nrticlo will not be a drawing card for Modford. I sup pose that the author thinus that he can lildo behind a nom de plume and go unsuspected, but "murdur will out." J. W.
