Lecture on Robert Burns. ,
Professor J. B. Horner, registrar of
the state agricultural college, lectured,
Tuesday evening, in the U. B. , church
on the subject of "Robert Burns." The
church was comfortably filled, and the
speaker held the close attention of his
audience throughout his address. The
lecture wag the second in a series of free
lectures given to the rxvple of Hood
Kiver under the auspices of the Broth
erhood of Andrew and Philip.
Professor Horner is a great admirer of
Scotland's peasant poet, and his talk of
an hour and a quarter on the spirit of
Burns' literary productions ' contained
many good ideas for serious considera
tion. "Bnrns" said Professor Horner,
"was the most nearly Inspired of all the
poets." Even the lowly and common
things of nature became ennobled and
sublime when seen by the mind of the
man whose inspirations "appealed to the
business and bosoms of men. "Burns was
preeminently the poet of the common
people, and as such he sought to estab
lish the eternal principle of the univers
al fatherhood of God and the common
brotherhood of men, "for a man's a man
for a' that."
At the close of the lecture the profes
sor announced that C. G. Roberts had
consented to recite a production of Burns
in the true Caledonian dialect. Mr.
Roberts replied with a rendition of the
famous "ram O'Shanter." The au
dience wanted the true brogue and no
one doubted that they got it.
Death of P. F. Bradford.
Putnam F. Bradford, whose death oc
curred at his late residence in this city,
at 7 o'clock Tuesday evening,Dec. 30,1901,
caused by a complication of diseases in
cident to olfl age, was born ' in the fa
mous Berkshire Hills at Sheffield,
Mass., on May 25, 1827, making his age
at death, 74 years,7 months and 6 days.
Mr. Bradford came from the most
honored ancestry of our country, being
the seventh lineal descendant of Gov
ernor William , Bradford of Plymouth
colony. All his ancestors bore an hon
orable part in the development of our
national life. His father was a congre
gational minister, and for 40 consecutive
years was the stated pastor of one
church, at Sheffield, Maes.
In 1849, Mr. Bradford, associated with
others, purchased a small ocean craft,
and in it sailed from Boston around Cape
Horn to San Francisco, the trip occu
pying six months. After mining in Cal
ifornia several years, deceased came to
Oregon and soon became interested in
the Oregon Steam Navigation Co., doing
buisness mostly on the Columbia river.
This company did a, large transporta
tion business during the&O's and amass
ed fortunes for its owners. During those.
busy years of traffic, Mr.Bradford was a
familiar figure at Portland.Oregon City,
Vancouver and other places, and be
sides superintending the work of large
transportation company, was the princi
pal mover in building the railway on the
Washington side from the lower to the
upper cascades, and also the historic
river steamers Hassalo, Oneonto and
Mary P. Flint, the latter being the
maiden name of his mother. He was
associated in business enterprises with
such men as Jacob Kamm, Capt. Ains
worth. R. R. Thompson. W. 8. Ladd and
others who became the leading capital
ists of the Northwest. In 1865 the Ore
gon Steam Navigation company was dis
posed of, and thereafter Mr. Bradford
lived for some time in Massachusetts,
as well as in California. He also devel
oped and carried on large mining enter
prises in Idaho, and near Baker City.
For about 25 years previous to coming
to Hood River, in 189b, Mr. Brad
ford lived near Portland, and was
engaged in fruit growing. On March
28, 1852, deceased was joined in mar
riage at Cascade Locks with Miss Helen
B. Palmer, who died very suddenly Dec.
21, 1897. Five children were ,born to
this union, four dying in infancy.
Mr. Bradford was a man of high and
noble ideals, a kind husband and lather,
generous and noble in his bearing to
ward others, well informed on the gen
eral topics of the times, and an inter
esting and forceful personality. Re
ligiously, he had deep convictions and
firmly believed in the God of his fathers
and in that abiding faith entered into
his heavenly reward. An aged brother.

tion nowadays. It has long been noted
aa a wonderful fruit-proudcing section,
but it has not been nntil the past few
yeara that its merits as an apple and
strawberry producer ot unequaiea navor
has receiver! due recognition irom the
outside world. Now, the Hood River
strawberries and apples of many varie
ties stand easily at the head of the list.
I arrived at this hotel on a Sunday and
it seemed to me that everybody was dis
cussing the merits of this and that spe
cies of apple, and the net amount placed
in the bank here to the credit of this and
that horticulturist. In glass case in
the hotel I noticed a dozen fine speci
mens of the apples grown in the valley,
and they were beauties in size, color and
flavor. Some gentlemen just from
South Africa spoke of the native ppre
ciation for the Hood River apples. They
stand shipment anywhere and they
bring the highest prices obtainable for
apples anywhere. As indicating what
can be done here by intelligent, indus
trious husbandry, I may mention that
the firm of Sears A Porter made $5,000
this year net out of the product of 17
acres planted to apples. This, of course,
is more then an average showing, but it
indicates the possibilities of fruit cul
ture in Hood River valley. The valley
has shipped 600 tons of strawberries to
the markets of this continent for the
year 1901. For delicacy of flavor, size,
firmness and ripe, rich red coloring.they
stand at the top notch of strawberry
production. If one eats strawberries and
does not get the Hood River kind they
are missine an epicurean refreshment,
in which the palate may be tickled but
not satisfied. I only read a lew days
since an item in the Oregonian of Port
land. Oreuon. which indicates that even
the average clerk is dropping his voca
tion and Decoming interested in tne til
lage of the soil. A well-known ex-postal
clerk of that city sent to his former as
sociates a number of boxes of Hood
River apples with the gratuitous informa
tion that raising apples was mucn more
nrofi table than serving Uncle Sam in
the postal service. By the bye, I have
been informed that Sears 4 Porter have
been here only seven years. They are

THE LITTLE STORE
from 800 to 1,400 bushels to the acre.
The supply of fruit is not confined sim
ply to the above products. Cherries and
other fruits thrive. Vegetables grow so
large in this valley that I dare not tell
their normal size for fear that some pop
ulistic farmer will deny the allegation
and the allegator. Think of potatoes in
Oregon from 4 to 7 pounds each ;
squashes from 200 to 220 pounds each;
watermelons (5 pounds, and applefifrom
15 to 18 inches around, weighing 1 to
2 pounds each. These have been ex
hibited at The Dalles fair. E. Locke of
Hood River has received for several
years past an average of $500 per acre
for his strawberries, f!)00 an acre from
cherries, $ii00 an acre from peaches, $500
an acre from pears, and has raised 30,
000 pounds of prunes to the acre. Joe
Morton, three miles below Hood River,
sold 37 bushels of apples from a single
tree. They brought 70 cents a bushel,
or $25.90. Counting 90 trees to the acre
this would be $2,331 an acre for one
year's crop. J. J. Luckey of Hood
River gathered 2(1,000 pounds of cherries
to the acre, which netted him 7 cents
a pound, or $1,950 an acre clear on one
season's crop. N. C. Evjins of the same
neighborhood netted $900 an acre on
strawberries. Hood River took 16 med
als on fruit at the Chicago exposition,
including one on strawberries and 7 on
apples, which leads one to remark "how
we apples do swim." But why elabo
rate the the individual results and
profits? They are known to all men
who do not wear an 8-size hat and keep
the aforesaid hirsute appendage crushed
over eyes, ears and chin.
It was a caution to see the apple eat
ing proclivities of the people here. Ap
ple dumplings, apple pies, roast apples,
fried apples, stewed apples, apples dec
olette and apples with proper garniture
and garments greeted my vision at the
restaurant and hotels. I am informed
that considerable land is still obtainable
in the valley and prices are moderate
and within the reach of all. With the
weight of 60 years on my shoulders I am
even now tempted to throw aside the
dull troublesome cares of a professional
life, and engage in a pursuit wlucli adds
not alone to one's lease of life but adds
boyancy to one's physical make-up, and
a healthy bank account a necessary
passport to the kingdom of contentment
and independence.
