CORRESPONDENCE. ODELL. Inasmuch aft there had been some talk about changing the boundary line between Odell and Tine Grove school districts, I beg to herewith quote from aectlon 26 of the Oregon school laws enacted in 1K91, towit: "The district boundary board may establish new districts on the petition of three legal voters of said proposed new district, and may change or divide the districts of Its county when peti tioned to do so by a majority of the legal voters of the districts concerned in the change."

C. to Nea-plck Saturday ThnmiMoii has an abidiuir faith In Hood Itiver valley, snd he proves bis faith by backing it up with money. In the vicinity of bis Willow flat prop erty there has been spent more money In developing the land titan In any other section of the valley. About three years ago the Davidson Fruit Co. began there and today their work is telling. Their peach orchard set nut two vears Hto last spring Is an nhiect lesson nn what that section will do. The aoule orchard snd berries planted last spring are additional evi dences of their faith. The smooth, well tilled ground, the 11 ne growth of the trees and berries round up a charming picture abutting upon one of the dustiest cut up roads in the county. This ranch rivals the work of an English gardener, and is well wnrtb the trip to have a look at It Frank M asset's bouse just across the road has recently taken on a coat of white paint with trimmings of green.

Where is Barrett? Always As Biir M Hood Kiv'r Vrn" Apples that look as large as small pumpkins, pears that would be ribbon winners at any exposition and crab apples and plums the size of teacups are raised right outside the gates of this city by W. R. Reed, who resides near Warrendale. For many years Mr. Heed had been reading of the faniotip fruit grown in the Hood River and Grand Konile val leys. Not only did lie read in Oregon papers of the apples, strawberries, peaches and pears grown in these fruit UIBiriClH, UUl. Ill tl.unt: imuitouuu ill vnii- ous eastern cities as well. "If such things can be raised m those districts I think they can be grown right here in Multnomah county," said Mr. Reed, and straightway did he pro ceed to plant some trees. Like Mr. Fin ney's turnip, so famed in verse, .they grew and grew and grew. Mr. Heeed's fruit ranch is considered by all who visit it to he the equal of any in Ore gon. A box of apples, peors, plums and crabannles erown bv Mr. Reed readied Portlund Una morning. An apple picked at random out of those sent down measured 14 inches in circumference and others that were in the box looked even larger. The ears and crabapplcs were also very large "I do not have to spray my tree? nor irrigate the land," said Mr. Heed in speaking of his fruit ranch, "and I think that my apples and other 'goodies' will pass muster anywhere. There is a great deal said and written about the Hood River and Grand Ronde country, but there's nothing the matter with just plain Multnomah county land when it comes to raising large and luscious fruit."
