Cunadian Iloiticulturist. We do, in

look into the conditions we find either

lie the 1 1 1-u in t ion and the better 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

Oseur Vauderbilt of tho Keiilah
Lund fruit fnrm has ordered some
thing new in the way of power 8pray
pumps from tho Knst. 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.

stretches of county road it would
probably 1st found necessary to build
or reconstruct a short piece of road
between Washoiigal and Cape Horn,
then there would boa short but heavy
piece of work between tho Lower and

This Is the only bridge on " tho

probably another up the hill east of

of the roud is built.

"Hit the Trail."
Hood River. Ore.. 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.

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. Altiort Anson tlra

Harvey Dunn, an adopted sou'of Mr,
and Mrs. A. II. 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

freeze over before and remain frozen

Odell wants the Sunday school teacher
of Misa Sadio, aud favored friend of

cemetery. 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."

MAKE VALUABLE TAR
FROM PINE STUMPS
I). I. 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.
