Hi pine people, always see gloomy pros jiectrj and jilimt'il murkois ; tliey always I ok on the dark side of everything and peem never to catch even a glimpse to the silver edging of a cloud, says the Cunadian Iloiticulturist. We do, in deed, lind our markets at times over- pujiplieil Willi certuin Iruits, tint II we look into the conditions we find either thai tint fruit was pour or that it was hndly diHtrihuted.

Id good, namely, "Tlie more good fiml put into a market the greater will lie the 1 1 1-u in t ion and the better the prizes in Iheend," while no doubt the ievere of this statement is eimallv true. The tact is that when people can not get good apples, lor exanrple, they will louk out lor choice fruits of oilier kinds, whether fresh or preserved, to take their place, and so ou throughout the chapter, llie moral then is plain grow oiiiv laiicy nign graue mm, gnu place such goods only on the markets, and the chances are that we shall eel- iloni see a glut, unless it be over-ripe l run t hat miiH lie Hurriedly disposed ol, lluys Air Pressure Mpray I'uiiip.

If the machine conies up to tho rocomniendution of tho miiiiuracturers, Mr. Vanderbilt expects to greatly lessen the labor ex pense in orchard spraying. Tho pump will be operated by com pressed air. The puni) cornea already iittached to a carriage, and tho revolu tion of the wheels as tho wagon is driven to the orchard is expected to rain) the necessary pressure, which will be maintained as tho machine is driven through the orchard from tree to tree. At present it requires four men to operate a spray pump in the orchard.

Jan. 1. l'.K 5 VV . 0. .Martin ami family sent me a royal invitation to visit them after my ar rival here from Shawnee, Oklahoma, w hich 1 accepted, and spent a week with them In their Hood Kiver valley homo in the Crupper district. Air. Martin and I would never tiro of talk ing about our friends in Sunny Flo rida. As he writes the Hood Kiver news, I will jot down a few lines per taining to the coining Ijowlsaud Clark exposition ut Portland. "Hit tlio Trail" is the expression. "Hit the trail" nt tho fair at Port land, the pride and metropolis of the i'aeiUe northwest, called by the 011 thusinsHo. the "Rose City," and the "l'enrl of tho 1'iieille."' And dear renders, while "hitting the long trail," as 1 may express it the long railway (rail across tho continent to the lair you will see sights worth coming the tour t lioiisunu miles for, Sights in among the Rockies are cer tainly grand, but for scenic lionuty Oregon will lend tlio world, r lorlda, the laud of (lowers, excepted. To my mind the mighty Columbia river pre sents a most beautiful sight 'indeed. Its scenery in the midst of trie Cas cades is truly magnificent. From the heights of Port laud on a clear day can be seen the snow-clad summits of Mounts Hood, St. Helens, Rauier, Adams and Jefferson, a sight worth indeed beholding. Between, the Cas cades mid (he coast range is found one of the garden spots of the world, where the soil is rich, tho moisture abun dant aud transportation easy. Okalhotiut has cotton, corn, wheat, watermelons ami enterprising cities, but Oregon has the sea, and wheal., and cattle, and fruit, and forest, and Jilt, a ud gold, and silver, and nickel, aud copper, and tiu, and last, but not least, scenery. It was the battleship Oregon, the "bulldog" of the navy, which sailed around the horn ou record-breaking time and saved the day at Santiago do Culia, during the Spanish-American war, so it is with tho state of Oregon in the public eye at the present time.

Jewett of White Sal moil, was found dead, Monday moru la tr. under the Ice of Warner lake, a small pond on liiugen fiat. Tho boy had started skating Sunday afternoon. He did not return that night, but no alarm was felt as ho was accustomed to remaining over night with friends. Search was made when he failed to appear Monday morning. None of bis friends had seen anything of him, Hi horse was soon found tied to a tree at the edge of tho pond. In the center of the pond tho ice was brok en, aud on searching tho water, the lifeless body of the young man was found. Funeral sorvicos worn conducted Tuesday afternou, from the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Jewett. Harvey Dunn was a half brother of Aelus Jewett, w ho died last summer of tuber culosis. Mr. and. Mrs. Jewett are very much grieved over their sad loss. It Is stated by old settlers that War ners lake has never been known to freeze over before and remain frozen ull day. WORKING MODELS FOR IRRIGATION EXHIBIT Special to the Glacier. Portland, F'eb. 8 Hood River should be particularly interested in the irriga tion exhibit which will be made at the Lewis and'Clark exposition, Tho ex hibit will 06 complete, well arranged and instructive, and will prove a mar vel to eastern people, who know little of the wonderful results which an artitlcial water supply 1ms accoinplishedin many western districts. The exhibit will largely consist of working models of irrigation projects, the largest being patterned after the f:t,(KK),(KX) plant now being built in South ern Arizona. The moil el j will show the manner of.'storing the water by res ervoirs, the method of carrying it into the lowlands by means of canal and flumes, and its final distribution to the laud to bo irrigated. There will also be model of dam add reservoirs, and an exhibit of instrument used in de termining the amount of water which may be utilized from any given stream.

Troy Shelley of Hood Kiver write as follows from Santa Barbara, ou the death of Sadio Young "Sadie Young was a little over 15 yorus old. She had been sick nearly a year with what was supposed to bo typnold lover in llie first place, lmt which turned out to bo tuberculosis of the bowels. Her case was a very peculiar one, Inditing the skill of nil her physicians for a long time to diagnose. "When tho trouble was finally known, her father, like many another parent who has struggled with the grim monster, resolved to leave no stone unturned to save the life of his child, (lathering ull together, he came with his family and tho writer, to Santa iiarbara, landing here Decem ber a I. Jiore it seemed, lr anywhere ou earth, seductive inlluences of nature would woo her back to health. The still, warm, sunshiny days, and the pure, fresh air from the ocean laden with the balm of blooming flowers, was wonderfully invigorating. "For a time she got better, but it was not to pe. Deat h finally claimed her body for his victim, but could not conquer the soul. She fell asleep in Jesus, peacefully, quietly, trusting Him to the end. "Although so young shehad a pecul iar quality of character, which greatly endeared her to those around her; and it is safe to say that along w ith her friends, overy doctor and nurse who attended her in these last days loved her. "We are again reminded that 'The king of terrors loves a shining murk. ' Happy tho mother who bore her into this world and into the kingdom of the Lord." Vermont to Have I'iiIumo Ituihllng.

Stone of this city is firmly convinced the people of Hood Kiver are letting a fortune slip through tbeir fingers because they permit the nine stumps on their land to go to waste, when it would lie possible to extract tho turpentmo at a good profit. If the pine stumps elsewhere are turned into money, Mr. Stone considers it an awful waste because Hood River farmers do not investigate the matter. Pine tar plants have been started up near tho head of Lake Superior. That tho industry is no experiment and of no doubtful value is shown by the fact that the W eyerhauser syndicate, the largest iumliering concern in tho world, has taken it up, lias just bought out the plants already estab lished and is installing more. All tho region about the head of Lake Superior is, or was, covered with pine timber, and when this was cut out, the slumps remained in the ground. Pine stumps do not rot as do those of hard woods and the pres ence of these stump was a serious obstacle to the spread of farming in the rigion. Now comes the pine tar company ami offers to (dear the farm of all it old stumps or pay the owner t'.i for every cord of them that he will pull himself. for larmers throughout thousands of acres, this is an inestim able boon and it will open hundreds of thousands of acres as fast as the stumps are got out. llie company has Invented, or ap plied existing processes of destructive distillation of wood to tho pine stumps and is securing a combined product of great value. There is a large nmoiint of turpentine in these dry st umps also a high grade of lubricating oil, tar, anil Dually, excellent char coal, llie discovery thut lubricating oil was to be secured from stumps by carrying tho distilled product to Its last anal sis is quito new, and no machines for producing this have yet been iustulled, but they are to 1)0 put in at once in the company's plant a few miles south of Duluth.
