You sijtjost-' that I'rritO such a letter as I would Jto some dear friend in Iowa, Illinois, or some distant state. Having been alsent from these distant states nearly half a century, my friends are tolerably scattering there, and I cannot recall oim whom I think would be interested in fmit growing here ; so I take the liberty of addressing addressing this hotter to yourself. I hasten to express my gratification at the commendable interest you are evincing in the horticulture of (Oregon. The infusion of new blood wjll undoubt edly result in great benefit to this im portant industry. I assume (hat you desire to grow a commercial orchard, and I congratulate you thst .you have chosen the (tale of Oregon for the field of your labors ; for uothipg. Is mbr im portant to tha fruit grower than ade quate transportation facilities by' sea and by land,, and in f hat other locality can half the population of the world be reached more readily tlutn frqm Oregon? A survey of this state by' the board of horticulture discloses Mto JaO-Uiat more than 90 per cent pf land adapted for fruit growing kiuucupiad'Jur.LUt pur pose. In a brief letter I can only suggest outlines of how to grow an orchard ; de tails cannot be supplied. In selecting your location hug closely lines of trans portation and your position pill. be en-1 viable in proportion to uie pumuer 01 markets you can reach .In' ,tlie aliorUytt nine ai a iiumiuuui vi vauviiav. In choosing a tract of land to plant, you will be governed largely by local conditions. 1 name some of the them. Immunity from spring frosts, ample wa ter and drainage, a proper amount of sunshine and moisture, and a proper temperature; soil to be preferred, a deep, clay loam. Avoid hollows in the lower levels ami see that the soil is fair ly rich in those mineral suits that enter into plant iiic! .fruit ,sr(jwth.' .

Xou, will do well to consult the most successful or charding In your vicinity for necessary details, and tljere are eaceljcnt manuals that you will also dp well to read. J load your trees low, f.r you can prune and spray to better advantage, and It exists money to use a step ladder ,at picking time. Select your varieties to suit not your own taste but the taste of the mar kets and those varieties adapted to your locality.. Apples vary greatly in flavor sise and color' In different locali ties. Diamine (he orchards about you and ascertain what kinds grow best and give best results. If the loctlity you examine prodiices only common grades, move on to one that produces the best. I again emphacise . the point, be careful as to varieties, for in this age of rapidly mujflpfylng orchards there Is safety only n the production of fruits of the highest excellence. 1 b not ' plant many varle ties nor large blocks of a single variety, for "Nature abhors Mlf-frtilitv !M nn maitar Imw liulMMr. tile a variety may Ve,.tbe fruit .will be larger and liner if thai blossoms have re ceived pollen from other varieties.

After that time the prcjiard i pay iU way iiUi iiwreasing margin of profit. In other sections the estimates are leas than this. Land varies so greatly " in price that I have not UicWt'd Uitvirest on investment for land, taxes, ete." ' It is impossible to even approximate the returns from growing orchards, the; vary so .greatly f owners' likewise. I have known orahards the sixth year to pay all expenses up to date, and have known others at ten years to return from to 1500 per acre. and are not to be considered in estimat ing profits. I am, however, prepared to maintain that when an orchard w fairly in good bearijig, apples can be cultivat ed, thinned, picked, papejr-wrapped, hauled to station if not more than ten miles distant and a fair road, ibot paid for, all for 50 eenU a box, and that So. 1 winter apples will sell tor not less than one dollar per box for a series of years. In 18(10 there ' were growing m the United States 201, 7tM,7tft apple trees:in Oregon 2,M2o,t8, since increased to over 3,000,000 trees. Will qot cjver pro duction ruin the markets? Yes, possi bly in some years, for common grades ; never for the fancy product. Let us discuss tut a moment the effect of the enormous production of apples in recent years has had upon the market. C. C. Bell, for many years a shipper of fruits, in the current number ul "Oachard Fruits" furnishes a statement of the purchasing power of a barrel of apples from 1870 to KKtf, and I abstract briefly : A barrel of aisles in 1870 paid for 39 pounds of wheat, iu J8S0 for 72 pounds and iu 1003 for 120 pounds. In 1870 it paid for 7, pounds of white sugar, in 1903, for 224 pounds. In 1870 it paid for HjJ pounds of nails and in 1008, for 40 pounds. In 1870 it paid for 1 yards of calico, ib. .taw lor zi yarns. in im a required Z4 barrels of ap ples iq buy a harvester in JWM, ho bar rels bought a better machine; Thirty' seven years asro the writer bouaut in Salem, Oregon, the finest Wihesaps he had ever seen for 25 cents a box. Last year like fruit would have brought five times as much. In 1003 carloads of ap ples from Hood River's fancy fruit crop were soiu to retailers in new xora uity at $3.50 to $4 per box, of 45 pounds of fruit, the highest price I have ever known paid for apples in such quantities. Hut why inultiply.instances? A great de mand for American apples has gone Bp in Europe, and our exports from Atlan tic ports in 1103-4 exceeded 3,300,000 pounds, told storage, tapid transit, and added to increased consumption of ap ples everywhere have made a demand ahead of increased ' produntion for our fancy fruit. The dilliculty lies in dis posing of our common grades, but there is encouragement even there. .Our own citizen, Hon. Hairy B.Miller, consul Niu Chang, China, writes, "If the fnferrior grades of the proper ship ping varieties of apples grown pn the Pacific coast could be sent to China for the Chinese trade at a low cost, 1 am convinced that an extensive and perma nent market can he created.t lie also adds in the same communication that the .Russians are great lovers of apples. May we not expect, tlicn, that when the oriental freight tariffs become a little lower, when the Kussian bear returns from his outing in Manchuria, (and he has already headed for home), and when conditions have become settled, that pur countless neighbors along the eastern coast ttf Asia will consume ever increas ing quantities of our common fruits? In concluding these lengthened pages may I say to you in growing your or chard there will come to you recom pense other than dollars and cents, a recompense of wealth and added years, a fueling that you have msstered every S'lverno condition ; and when your ..trees that you have grown and loved are bur dened with great harvests will you Dot rejoice that you have been a factor in a fruition so noble, so beautiful? . ,. E. L. SMITH, Pres. Oregon, State Board Horticulture. Congregational Monday School Picnic. The annual picnic of the Congrega tional Sunday scho'il, given last Friday, was voted, by every one in attendance as the most enjoyable of all the successful picnics given by this popular Hunday school. It was held iu a lieautiful Cot tonwood grove on J. 11. Koberg's farm, about a mile east of town. The child ren hmnd it great sport to wade and dabble in the water along the river beach. The swings, too, were patronized all ditv long by the yopiigsters. Too much credit ' cannot be given the Sunday school superintendent, A. O. Btaten, and T. J.'Treiher, for their endeavors to make the picnic a success. Each of there gentlemen (unlinked teams and with their farm wagons and carriages carried the children to the grounds. Mr. Htaten, with Pan! and Oils Troilier and Willie Raker, put in the day Thursday erecting tables and putting up swings, and a tent. ' Mr. and Mrs. KobVrtr also earned the gratitude of the picnickers In furnishing lumber and granting the uce of their kitchen and in many ways showing true welcome. ' The children were aiven ristht of fcav at the dinner table and were sesved first. Bixty-eight happy youngsters did full justice to the many good tilings provided, cakes, pies, lemonade and ice cream galore. Older persons to the number of 40 were" served ai in Huconii uinie. The games were the great attractions of the day. First came base ball, the contestants being the Sunday school bovs aaaiiiHt the men. The men's nine consisted of Htaten, Hteiihauer, Heinh- ner, Uessling, Onthank, Hurt, Treiber, and, there being only eight men on the ground, Mrs. II. r. Havidson kindly consented to act as the ninth man ; but it seemed to the reporter that she did as much rooting for the juniors .' she for her own side, Htaten was pitcher and Btranahan catcher for the seniors. Teddy Button Impartially umpired the game, 17 to 3 In favor of the juniors, proved that the men were hack uumbers In playing the great American game and the juniors didn't seem to be doing their level bust. Riming those of, thy senior nine who distinguished theni' selves on this diamond field wereiiursh ner,Htaten,Htenhiiuor,(h)SHling,ilartaiul and Onthank. Mrs. Jiavulson batted ball and showed herself a good sprinter tu second base, when unfortunately the man at the bat was third man out, and for this reason only she failed to make a home run. Willie Baker was pitcher for (he juniors and Harry Rood catcher; lajth proving to be experts. Others of the junior tune are as far as the writer learned their names, were Paul and Utia Treiber Elliot Htaten , and Merrill OesHling. Other games consisted of the follow ing: Tug of War Class 6 against the men of the picnic, won by the clans. High jump won by Paul Treiber. Standing lump won bv A. C. Htaten Standing three jumps won by A. 0, ruiisn. -i- - - - Foot race for all won by A. C.Htaten. Hitting the post Contested by women only, created great amusement. A stake was driven in the ground, and the feat was to see who could walk 25 puces blindfolded and place a base hall bat nearest the stake. Out of a dozen con testants, Mrs. 8. F. Blvthe lame the nearest, within three feet, anil Mrs Adelia Moe was the farthest off. toot race between the Hnndav school classes of Miss Alvena ' Hoadley and Miss Clara Blvthe. which was won hv Albertafitaten.

' - A. I.

E. Iu Rmitli, president of the state board of holticullure, informed the Glacier that the report that the apple crop in the United Htates will be a large one is misleading. From what the state ooaru oi riomcuiture is awe to learn the crop throughout the country wiU be only 60 per cent of a full crop.
