In 1801, after our Bull Run, three hundred thousand Volunteers enlisted to wivo the Union. and war we)l drilled spldicr before tie real oonlebt began in 1862.

G. J. Gessling has ten yearling hens and five April pullets that laid 216 eggs in December ana W ot'gs in January. They are cross between Barred Plymouth Kocksand Minorcas. flis May pullet are iust commencing to lay. The record made by his hens for winter months is hard to beat. Owners of small orchards who let poultry run among tho trees arc usually troubled with fewer insect pests than usual. Hens are great scratchers.

Union is tho original and oldest shipping agency here. It is the only concern using tho co-operative principle by which all the profits go to the growers, it has estabiisheu bus: ness relations with tiie most responsible fruit dealers iu all the markets, and the question is, "Why pay tribute to un necessary middlemen and speculators." Co-operation is becoming the watch word in all the fruit-gtT-'ing sections; not only in California but in Colorado, with its vast melon shipments, and in the strawberry-growing sections of the Untea Mates. Ihe bouthwest, an ably conducted horticultural paper of Spring field, Mo., says; "Jf co-operution Is right, fruitgrowers should never become discouraged. It is not in armed conflict alone that courage and patriotism ore manifested, and all the great victories that lift up human ity are not won by the sword. Bear in mind thit more is accomplished by co operation than is credited to it, Asso ciations serve to restrain powerful cor porations from adding to their present charges. Without organization the pro ducers will have no profit." Most assuredly the growers are en titled to receive all the profit that prop erly belongs to them, Some Pointed Questions, Editor Glacieb : Noticing in the last issue the petition for a licensed saloon in the town of Hood River, and feeling a real interest in the welfare of the place and its surrounding country, I beg to submit for consideration a few of the many points that are involved, seeing that an invitation is exteuded for that purpose; 1. As the present saloon enterprise is carried on without the consent of the locally governed, will the principle in volved concerning the will of the people be inviolate by granting a licenser 2. If there are evils connected with a quantity establishment.will they be less ened by the more extended retail traffic? 3. If the principle of license shall car ry, must not the legal right of suffrage of one be extended to all who may apply? 4. As increased patronage in that line is intended by the petitioners, will the results of such patronage justify an en tire submission to the licensed system? 6. If, it is now difficult for parents to isolate their children from the evil influ ences of the saloon, would their diffi culties be lessened by increasing the in fluences? 6. Will a licensed saloon bo a financial gain to the. merchant? For do not the dimes and dollars spent over the bar leave the merchant's customers with less to pay bills and make new pur chases? Villi credit lists be decreased and cash receipts enlarged? 7. What about tho argument "that the saloon will stay if not licensed?" What has been your experience in the past? 8. Will the public health bo advanced? For does not the general use of liquor render men less able to resist disease or recover from its ravages? 9. Will the village marshal or sheriff have less to do under the license system, or will he need an assistant at times and demand more pay? Will crime be lessened and wives and daughters more secure upon the streets? 10. What about mortgages? Docs the license help to lift mortgages, or will not general indebtedness be increased? 11. If Hood River has maintained a permanent growth financially and mor ally without a licensed saloon, will the same progress bo more apparent by a licensed one? ' Make some comparisons Fargo, North Pakota, and Moorhead, Minnesota, for example. The latter has 45 saloons, paying f5U0 each. Fargo has none. The towns lie upon opposite sides of the river, with equal advantages and facilities, and while Mooiliead., with so much license accruing, is falling be. hind annually in citv improvements and population, her per capita tax is in creasing. Fargo has added in tho last year about one million dollars in build ings, has fine streets, a large increase in population, and its per capita tax is among the very lowest in the United States. Make other comparisons. 12. Will the farmers, 'who are the backing to the town, be benefitted? Will the results oi, a licensed saloon, put hinges upon the gates, locks upon the doors, glass in the windows, clothes upon women and children and shoes upon their feet? Will increased traffic bring comforts to the home, happiness to the heart and education to the miud? id. Will tfie reputation of Hood River as a model plage for people to come to rear and educate their children be bet tered by the willing existence of the saloon? i 14. Will my boy, or yours, or- vour neighbor's children, have a better ex ample before them and thus be made stronger to resist a downward course? lo. is it true that one or more licensed saloons will build up the place? Will they build school rooms, found libraries or in any way benefit the voung? 18. For whose benefit w the saloon anyway? 17. Will tho money accruing to the town from the license more than bal ance the cost of trials, the loss of char acter, the bad bills, bad tempers, weak ened minds and loss of comforts in the homo that are truly incident to the sa loon ( It is true that justices of the peaceand attorneys will have more to dot for who knows of a town where liauors are freelv uiuyprn w quarrels, ugius uuu other difficulties are not of common and V... . i serious occurrence, and suits of action become frequent in consequence? It is true that doctors will have- more to do. because there ara "wounds without cause," bruises without number, and a long list of ills that even a Keely cure Cannot heat- But as no one meditates such things as valuo received for a li cense, they cannot weigh in its favor. liow about the results of the "treat ing system" that surely follow retail liquor traffic. Is it not netter that the present enterprise should exist, if stay it must, without the encouragement and support guaranteed bv a license. Hoping that these points may touch some oi tne reaj, questions tor consid eration, and that a license shall not carry, I remain as one who has sincere motives, ior me name, nonor and pros peruy oi nooa itiver ana viciruty. y. a.

A fine lot of Men's and Boys' Hats and Caps ; latest styles and blocks, including men's stifj Hats, Fedoras and Pushasv We also- have, ordered direct from manufaeturers i the East the largest shipment of Shoes that we have ever brought to this town,. We will meet any and all competition in this line and feel certain th.at we can hold our ow.. Come and see us As S, BLOWERS & SON, too often happens, in such cases, wealth prevailed, the question of'Men or Deer?" was settled in favor of the latter, and today all oyer- the Highlands may be seen piles of ruins where once were thousands of happy homes, and one iy travel for days and hear no sound save the curlew's lonely cry. As a consequence of that short-sighted and inhuman policy, Scotland a best and most virile blood, has been scattered to the- ends of tho earth-a calamity that caa not be oftset by countless columns of, dollars ano; cents. If ever, in. the course of time, a gov ernment landJeasing law shall become a necessity, we sincerely hope ita farm ers will have sense enough not to make it, as in the Foster bill, a penal offense to trespass upon leased land. The most autocratic English lord could ask for no sore than that,, and the America.! peo ple would never stand it. Fossil Journal. IMler Trail Co., DEALERS IN Agricultural Implements, Deere Plows.
