The farmers' institute met In A. 0. U.
W. hU at-10 o'clock Monday. J. II.
S loemakcr wan called to the chair and
a;ted as temporary chairman. Piof
Like of the Oregon a?r;eiltural college
and C. L. Pmith, the lecturer from Minnesota-,
were the only one present from
a d. stance, the othcra having failed for
some reason to arrive in tims for the
opening of the iiiHtitute. There wan a
good attendance of fanners and fruit
grow erg.
Cr L. Smith1 was Introduced by the
chairman and gave an interesting talk
lor half an hour or more, and then aid
lie Would devote 20 minutes to answer
fn t questions. Questions were fired at
him thick and fat, and for more than
fcalf an hour he gave answers to ques
tions at.ihfwtorily and which viere i
jsrenting and instructive to afl. Ques
tions were fl-sked by E. V. Winnns, Pe
ter Mohr, E. L. Smith, W. A. Slinger
fund, W. V. Watfon, V. II. fvars, Chas.
Chandler, C. E. Markliain and others.
We regret that we cannot fiirniffi a ver
batim report of the questions and an
swers. Prof. ". ft. Lake then- gave a short
talk on subjects relating to horticulture.
Jle asked Hood Kiver fruit growers to
eo-operat witli him in propagating
ttrawbeny and other fruits from the
beat plants and trees. Select straw
berry Rets from the most vigorous and
productive plants only, and cione from
the apple trees,and limbs of apple trees,
that produce the bcrt fruit of tieir kind.
He believes many failures of trees in
our orchards are due to injudicious se
lections of cions. Questions were asked
Mr. Lake, and most of his talk was con
cerning the curl leaf of the prime tree,
of which no one had yet discovered the
eauw Hor provided a remedy.
In the afternoon W, V. Watson pre
sided. C. L. Smith talked and answered
questions for about two hours. He talk
ed on diversified and intensive farming
and showed what could be done on a
small fruit farm by keeping cows, hog
ai d chickens, by growing plenty of fod
der and feeding it on the place, and re
turning the manure to th land. He
did not beliere it would pay to purchase
eomniereial fertilizers for orchurds. Ap-
plying, barnyard manure and turning
nder red clover and other like forage
plants gave the best and most hutting
rcsul lii-
Prof, take talked for a short tirnfl on
the necessity of fruit growers taking
mora intercut in tho work of the state
board of horticulture and aked all to
Ik'eome members by paying the necessary
50 cents. The afternoon session was
interesting throughout, and the ex
perieuees brought nut by the questions
anked were instructive-.
Tiff evening session was held in the
Congregational church. The missing
professors were etiU absent, which some
what interfered with the program too for
the evening. W. P. Watson presided.
Prjf. Cubb.-r'.y opened tho eercises
by a cornet solo. Miss Anne Smith pre
sided at the organ daring the evening.
Dairy and Food Commissioner Bailey
gave a talk on adulterated food's. He
exhibited a three-gallon wooden bucket,
Iiandstmely labeled, in which had been
20 pounds of to-called strawberry jelley,
told at wholesale for 35 cents a bucket,
and retailed at 40 and 60 rents. An
analysis by the chemist at the Mate ag
ricultural college showed that there
U8 not a particle of tho fruit of the
trawbirry in tho "jallo,"
Mr. Bailey also thowed how other
Joods ere adulterated, and said that
hardly a manufactured article sold in a
gio.'ory store was as represented.
Sam Blo.wers treated the audience to a
long, which was heartily applauded, and
he was called buck for another.
C. L. Pmith then gave his lecture on
"Home Making," whitih was intended
or Tuesday evening.
A scng by S. J. LaFraneo ended the
programme for the evening. Mr. I.a
France had also to respond to an encore.
Tuesday morning Prof. Corcfley talked
en fruit pests. For codltn moth, he did
not consider the first spraying, just after
tho blossoms full, as the most necessary
Ho considered lata spraying, after Am
1st, as the most important, and to keep
it uo Until picking time. B. 11. Sears
thought the first spraying the moat ini
portant. Ho said he sprajed last year
at that time, kept it up throughout the
eeson,and saved 03 percent of hisappl
while his neighbors, who did not spray
till later, had 40 per cent of wormy ap
ples-. After considerable discuVion,
Frol. Cordley admitted that climatic
conditions might make the Itrst spray
ing necessary at Hood Kiver. The ques
tions and answers and discussions on
fruit pests kept up till the morning hour
ts consumed.
Tuesday afternoon C. L. Smith talked
and answered questions about dairying
and feeding, for 2)i hours. The que
tions and discussions taken part in by
eur farmers showed that much interest
waa taken in their work and' that many
were well posted.
Tuesday evening the closing session
was held in the Congregational chnroh,
and a full houso -assembled to hear tho
tone' usion of C. L. Smith's lecture on
"Home Building." Dr. lirosius opened
the session by favoring the audience
with a solo. C. I-. Smith's lecture was
listened to with strict attention and Lis
humorous and droll illustrations pro
voked frequent applause. He mid in
p&rtt
The first a:m and highest ambition of

Everi man who owns a Lit- ol land,

Good, wholesome, nutritions food is af

man siiould ever think of marrying until
she knows how to cook a good meal oi
victuals. A vouiitf man should never
marry until lie has demonstrated his
ability to provide the things necessary
tor the wile to cook with. Sour bread is
an abomiuatiofi ; but the man who milx

K.nd wordn, thouglitfulness regarding
the feelings ol others, will go a long way

man who makes the model home his

a fair chance of winning the gi al. In
doinif this he will i-tcuie a larger meas'

attend strictly k the btrniness mterestr
if the Union stiipjiers whose agents tnev
are. That some growers do not see fit ti

Union shippers. Everybody admits thai
.he failure to jnainta n a union -would re
mit in two or more private companiei-
contend ng against each other as ship
ping agents at this place, such compe
tition would be disastrous to the interest
of the crowers. especially if personal
feuds eirtefinto the strife. The growers
reallv owe it to thertiselves and W each

To private corporations and to middle
men generally the growers owe nothing.

Trice of Strawberry Crates.
Bejng assured of practically the entire
trade oi this section on strawberry crates
this scaao we hare oSored- to- the Union
for their natrons and offer to all others a
price of 14 cents on straw berry crates for
this season's use. In view of the ad
vance in the price of lumber, w ire, nails
and labor this reduced price cannot be
maintained eteent by the unanimous
patronage of the growers and shippers
of this section.
To all w ho pay cash for their crates
and haul them awav on or before the
first day of April, we will allow a further
discount of 6 per eent rroai tne aoove

No man can vote intelligently unless
he thinks intelligently. In this time of
'wars and rumors of wars" the greatest
aid to intelligent thiftkinjr and the best
food for intelligent thought is that news
paper which is greatest and best. Im
portant political issues are daily growing
more important. An intelligent under
standing of the policy of a nation or a
great political party is something to be
desired, and it is the duty of every cit
izen to thoroughly inform himself upon
the leading topics of the day. TheSanr.-
Weeklv Kepublic is tne greatest ana
best of all newsbapers. Its telegraphic
and cable news service excels that of
any other pper. It prints the new news
fully; not imaginative oeEuriesoes, But
domestic and world-distant, fully au
thenticated facts. The policies of the
great political parties are now being
formed and the cand'dates discussed.
Now is the time to subscribe for the best
medium of keeping in touch with the
whole world, the Semi-Weekly Republic.
No less worthy of attention is the
Republic s Sunditv Magazine. It is re
plete each issue with the best of special
articles-written by the best of literary
talent. Its beautiful half-tone illustra
tions have already made it famous and
their quality anu Quantity will be pre
served. New features of absorbing at
traction are illustrated and enlarged
upon in a manner equal to the high
priced magaaines. Events of current
interest are set forth in entertaining
style. There is humor in its pages, too-
and for the benefit of the ladies the
latest Paris fashions are each week ex
quisitely illustrated and described- The
Republic's Sunday Magaaine is etanoard.
The subscription price of the Semi-
Weekly Republic is f 1 per year. The
Republic Sunday Magazine f 1.25 per
year. Both papers are now being offered
at the very low priee of (1.50 for one
vear. To secure thiB low rate both must
be ordered and paid for at the same
time. Address all orders to The Repub
lic, St. Louis, Mo.

BIG INDUCEMENTS
We take the liberty of sending you a card, whieh we kindly ask
you to bring with you or gend, when making cash purchases at our
store, and have the amount of euch purchase punched out until all
the amounts represented oa margin are cancelled. Ve will then
present you FKEE, a large three-quarter life size, (bust) crayon or
water color portrait of yourself, or any member of your family or
dear friend, whose memory you may wish to perpetuate.
Knowiag the very general desire- among our customers for family
portraits, we believe that there is not a family m this section but
what would take a GOOD portrait in preference to anything we
could offer as an appreciation of their cash trade.
These portraits will be made from any photograph or tintype you
furnish (same will be? returned to you). Rremember you are not
required to buy a frame, we are presenting the' portrait as an appre
ciation of your patronage. However, we shall carry a large line of
frames which we will sell to portrait customers at ther fewest possible
price, but if you can buy a frarafl cheaper elsewhere it ia your
privilege to do so.
To enable you to understand more fully the value of this offer, we
invite you to call at our store where eamplea of the work and
frames can be seen.
We hope yoa will appreciate our endeavor, and favor us with,
your patronage, and ia return we will assure you courteous attention
and the best goods at the lowest pricea.
Toura very trtfy,
