tomer may be. Again, GASH does the trick. We sell for cash and we can buy

their goods.
We are selling nearly double last year's sales and our expen

Many of the Mosier people visited the
Dalles carnival this week, and each one
came back and said they were glad they
lived in Mosier, as Mosier had the fin
est fruit on exhibition at The Dalles
they ever saw, and from the blue rib
bons that were stuck on the Mosier ap
ples the judges thought so too. J. P.
Carroll of this place carried off the
premium on the 10 varieties show, over
all seven counties in the district, and
every other man that showed for prem
iums did not fail to get one on some
variety. Also our two dryers here car
ried off first and second prizes on dried
prunes.
All the prunes in the vicinity are
gathered and nearly all drted, How
is this? Mr. Sellinger, one of our
protiiinent fruit growers here, last year
had about 25 tons of prunes. He grub
bed out every other tree in each row,
making one-half of them, then manured
his orchard well, and this year he had
over 40 tons and much nicer prunes.
One day last week the little boy Mrs.
(lodberson is raising was playing round
the waifon while Onstage was hitching
up. After Gustave got in the wagon to
drive away he missed the boy but sup
posed he had gone to the house. When
the wagon started the little fellow was
under it and was knocked down.the wheel
passing over his thum and finger and
against his head. The boy was taken to
a dotor in The Dalles, but his injuries
proved to be not serious.
C. T. Bennet and William Graham,

standing at the edge of the mad even
with the front wheels of the front wagon
caught it and held the wagon from jerk
ing the horses off the prade, therefore
the real damage was slight.
