According to reliable report a number of orehurdists nro plmiiiiii;; to' tear out their apple trues and plunt pears or (frain or something better calculated to bring a reasonable profit. It was u diseouragiiiK hchroh. Jitit it was not discouraging to apple growers alone. A recent number of the Qutlook shows that the potato farmers of North Dakota had no better luck, worse in fact. Sir. N. J'. Nelson of Leal, North Dakota, for example, sent a ear load of potatoes to the Minneapolis Potato Exchange, which was sold for $:l!i(i. After deducting freight, exchange eliarges, inspection, freight investigation, shrinkage, heater detention, etc., ete., Mr. Nel son was presented with a check for $1.30. Tn oilier words, Mr. Nelson was paid one dollar and thirty cents for all his work in planting, cultivating, digging, haulilig and sort ing, after he had paid between ,:i0 and $10 for his sacks alone, and had also paid for his seed. To one unfortunate, greater misfortune is not. particularly con soling, perhaps. Hut nevertheless there is food for thought in the experience of the North Dakota potato furmcr. There are periods of acute depression in every business. No method lias yet. been devised to prevent them. Potatoes will always he eaten. So will apples, though of course, to a lesser extent. But the point to remember is that tho pendulum always swings both ways. The potatoes of North Dakota will come back, so will the apples of Oregon.' There is probably a disposition now in both districts to cut out potatoes and tipples entirely. This seems unwise. Far better, in our judgment to avoid hasty action and in the meantime to see what can be done to eliminate a method of distribution which allows a shrinkage of $3:10 to $.'M from the farm to tho market.

The close seoro kept tho lfiUO fans in sus pense and had them wild with excite ment from beginning to end. A tie score waH Indicated seven different times, nnd ot the end of tho first half tho seoro stood J 8-1 7 for Medford. Medford did not exhibit tho excel lent, nmclilue-like basketball that was exhibited at UnsebuiE In the second half of the contest. Iji.it night's contest wns won by bitter fight with a genorous portion of luck ndtled. Not luck in shooting baskets nor on tho floor, but luck In the fact that tlmo wns not up thirty seconds sooner than it was. The reason for tho lack of tho wonderful teamwork shown at Koseburg 1h said to have been tho Illness of Beeney, who, although tying apnin with Sing ler for hiith point position, with six bankets, did not rush the ball and play the accurate passim; and offen sive Koine that lie did at Koseburg.

NOTIIER week is ended, and I, with feelings punk, recall the paths I 'to wended, the stairways I've ascended, to gain another plunk. I 'have all kinds of shillings, and still with fran tic speed, I'm keeping up my drillings, I look for further killings, to gain more ehicki-nfecd, If I should die tomorrow and quit this course of toil, my aunts, immersed iu sorrow, won't have to beg or borrow, to make tho kettle boil. 1 have sufficient plunder, I havo an ample store j ami so I sit and wonder just why in purple thunder I claw around for more. I'm growing old and wheezy, white hair is on my crown; I ought to take things easy, and quit, my strivings cheesey, and watch the sun go down. Thus, when the week is dying, I gossip with my soul, and in the dusk I'm sighing, "I'm old, lind I'll quit trying to swell my ampin roll." Rut 'Monday morning finds me hot-fooling through the grad; no wise resolve now binds me, the thought of resting grinds me, I chase another scad. For wealth I am not lusting when I the plunks pursue; but sloth is too disgusting, nnd one will die of rusting when lie remarks.
