It appears to have been the custom to keep a tire beneath the building at all times to consume the Huwilunt and shavings. The high wind Wednesday fanned the flames until the blaze went through tlie floor of the factory, aud in a few minutes the lira whs entirely beyond control, The tinmen spread to the dry grass and destroyed 100 acres of pasture be fore being put out. t it was only by hard, work that sev eral barns were saved. A. P. Hate bam loHt about 00 acres of pasture grBHs; Mr. Belli nger l!0 acres, and sev eral other farmers about 20 acres. Storetl in the box factory at the time of the Ore were the camp sup plies and touts of a party of Seventh Day Advents, who intended opening a camp meeting- at Mosier, Tuesday of this week. Their goods meant a loss of 100. The meeting has been called otf, the members of the party going on to Portland. APPLE KEEPS IIP WELL G. R. Castnor, who is assisting Su perintendent Sfliiiii'Jti n looking after the Wasco county exnibitnt tho I.nttis and Clark exposition, Buys: "We are still holding our position well to the front as the best county as far as a fruit exhibit is concerned, but we are now Hearing a time when cherries are gone with nothing to take their plnce. That makes that part of the exhibit which has drawn a great deal of attention look rather bare. Some nice peach plums or apricots would till that space to good advan tage, anil shoulii any of your readers feel disposed to send us some they would lie appreciated. 'The apples are holding up well. We still have two plates of the large Hydes Kings from ii. li. Tucker, got on the opening tiny that bid fare to last this month out. The Hydes Kings came out of coM storiigo iu perfect condi tion, being one of the best keepers. Mr. Clalloway tolls mo that they and the Arkansas liliicks were tho only two that helil up through the entire St. Louis fair. "One of the poorest keepers In cold sfortigo is the Mack Twig; about the next pi orest is the largo, light colored Spitzonbitrg.

The Newtown comes out of cold storage in good condition, but does not bold up as v eil as some others, when put ou exhibition. "The Rev. Newell Dwight Hillis was a visitor several times to our booth. We furnished him with samples of fruit to send to the New York World. We also gave hi in some Hydes Kings that weighed 17 and 18 ounces each. He is very enthusiastic over our ex hibition and has promised to write a long article ou it for the World." Wasco Apple Was tbe lilggest. The Dalles Chronicle. "We want the biggest Hen Davis apple to be found in the Oregon ex hibit," said two Harrisburg girls at the agricultural building at the expo sition the other day, and when asked what they wanted of it said that man over in the Washington building bad claimed they bad larger apples than Oregon can raise and had offered the girls six of the largest apples lo tbeir exhibit if they'd produce larger ones from Oregon. They were direct ed to Wasco county's exhibit, where they borrowed the largest apple on exhibit and marching otf to the Wash ington building, soon returned with their six apples, the Oregon apple having weighed a half ouuee more than the largost Washington bad. iiopsTanbe grown here Who knows but what hops may aoon 1 one of the leading products of the Hood Klver valley. A Talley hop buy er, on learning that H. l' Sboemak-. er of this place had planted five acres to hop vines this spring, was in the valley last week to see how the experi ment was working, aud so satisfied is he with results so far thnt be is anx ious to plant 150 acres here, aud to contract for the product for five years at 15 cents a pound. Mr. Shoemaker says it costs no more to plaut an acre of hop roots than It does an aero of corn. The roots can be secured at to per thousand. The two Clement boys planted two acres for him In one day, at a cost of 13 for the labor. Ho plant ed GT0 roots to the acre. He expects to get his first crop next season. Tho hop dealer who was here last week, tioliovas the climate here, being dryer than the valley, would be even better for hop growing. He Iwlieves a great deal of the trouble with bop lice and honey due would not lie en countered here. Ulg money has been made from this product In the Wlliimette valley, and why not here? Oregon as come to be one of the greatest hop-producing states of the Union. If they will do well here there should be money iu the venture. STRAWBERRIES BEST PAYING CROP HE HAS Two acres of strawberries on A. W. Uoorinau's ten-acre farm two miles southwest of town produoed 455 crates or berries, which Mr. ISooruiau sayt will average him 81.54. Here is au iuootne of $700.70 from two acres. Mr. Hooraiao Is convinced tarries are the best paying crop be can produce on his laud. Mr. lioortnan plowed up part of bit berry plantation last summer and sowed the laud to clover. He does not regret having done so be says, as be believes he took better care of the bal ance of the patch at less expense. He raised a good deal of clover, and if the cream route is established will buy two or three cows. Having received his returns on his berry crop, Mr. Doorman and family loft Hntu-'dsy morning for a trip to the Lev. and, Clark yvpoiHioHt at Portland, liefore returning tn.y Will visit witk Mr. Hooornian's daughter, Mrs. Hanley, at Hillsboro. FIRE "DESTROYS DAVENPORT MILL The big mill of the Davenport Bros. Lumber Co. at Green Point was de stroyed by lire shortly after midnight Wednesday. Tbe loss will come near firi,000; no insurance. As there are large orders waiting to lie filled, the company has begun to replace tbe machinery, and tbe buzz of tbe saws will again be beard in tbe forests of Green Point within a few weeks. Considerable money bad recently been expended by tbe mill oompauy iu increasing the size of the mill, and the daily output was expected to reach 1,000 feet daily. One side of tbe mill bad been operating but a few days, and was cutting 75,mK) feet. lieu Theysou says it was the hottest lire he ever saw.' In three minutes after the fire got under headway the whole building was a mass of flames that sltot bigh In tbe air. Mr. They sou believes tbe tire came from smoul dering sawdust iu the rear of the en gine room. The conveyor, used in dumping sawdust into the furnace, was not working smoothly and per haps during the day sparks were con veyed from the engine into tbe saw dust and tbero covered up, whero tliey smouldered until late at uight. J. W. Lyle, another employe, says the flames must have gone skyward 400 feet. Wbile the heat was intense, the fire was of short duration, and it is possible a great deal of the macbiu ery can be saved. Frank Davenport, president of the company, says the early reports of tbe losses were considerably too high. He believes tbe sum will not exceed tl'2,0l0. Two of the boilers can be saved, he says, aud a good deal of the other machinery. The actual loss will, of course, amount to quite a sum when the loss of time is taken into consideration. Tlie mill had just been put iu position to cut a large amount of lumber, and there were many or ders waiting to be filled. Repairs will be made at once, and Mr. Daven port thinks it will not lie over three weeks before bis company will be saw ing again. SHOULD BE MONEY IN FANCY CHERRIES Fancy Ring cherries sent from Hood River by the Hood River Fruit Grow ers' union sold in New York for $3..r0 per ten-pound box. Allowing 75 cents expressage and .So cents commission there is $2.40per box for the man who raised the cherries. These were of course extra fancy, but it goes to show that fancy cherries will command a good price in New York, market con ditions being favorable. Tbe union is in receipt of a letter from Sgobel A. Day, which says: "We are glad to hear you people have planted cherries, because you are bound to do well in tbe future; but you must learn bow to pack them for the New York market." There is evidently money tn the cherry business if properly bandied, notwithstanding tbe discouraging re ports circulated by tbe Kan Diego man who was here this summer, packing cherries for tbe Eastern markets. JIM HILL WILL ENTER OREGON Hand Behind Rail road Movements Great Southern May Be His Road INTO HEART HARR1MAN DISTRICT Confirmation of Ills Plans of Opera atlon Comes from Several Di rect Sources Will Reach ertli-l!ank lioatl. After sparring for some time, the Columbia Railway A Ntt iatioli com pany has tipped it olf and on all sides from men In authority, aud otheri-who aro high up iu railway circles have discovered that Jim Hill, who has gal noil control of the Northern Pacific by decision of the courts iu the great merger controversy, is invading the territory of the euemy, one Mr. Har rlmau, aud Is slipping down tho north bank with a transcontinental line and will give the O. R. & N. direct com petition from sea to sea. It is no wild guess to say that Jim Illil Is even entering the very heart of Oregon with the Great Southern now building from Tho Dalles to Du fur. When the bridge at Vancouver is constructed to give the Northern Paciflo a direct entrance to Portland there will be no further use for the big ferry at Kahuna. This may be moved up the river tn -The Dalles to transfer cars from the Great Southern to the north batik road, thus giving direct communication from the inter ior of Oregon by Jim Hill's road into Portland. President Helmricb of tho Great Southern was in Rend last week. Wbile there boInformed the Rulletiu inau that bis company contemplates extending tbeir road from Dufur to the niotropolls of Northern Crook, with tlie probability ot u eoiiUnuniu e " southward. The liulU'tin man put the question to the President of a bridge at The Dalles, and was givou the following reply : "We are not worrying at nil about that. We shall have au easteru outlet when we are reday for it." A locomotive engineer who exam ined tlie new rolling stock of the Great Southern lemiuked : "If that equipment didn't come from tbe Great Northern shops, I don't know anything about such mat ters. It is certainly Great Northern, and I think the Great Southern is a Jim Hill enterprise. Those dry goods men who are nominally building the new road are not in the entetpiito on their own account. Mark my words, it's Jim Hill. "Somebody Is right now buying right of way down the north bank of the Columbia. 1 have a ranch there myself and have been approached for right of way across it. One of my neigbors this week sold right of way across his farm for $l,(Hxl and got the money, too. A number of others hate made similar arrangements lately, I tell you Jim Hill menus to comedown the Columbia river with tlie Northien Pacillc aud he means to got into Cen tral Oregon. " The revealing of who Is back of tho project along tho north bank and who is the prucahsor of the C. R. & N, has great significance, for it supplies the the link nnd shows who is back of the greatest railway project in the history of the railroad world. It mens a great deal to the people of Washintgon and Oregon. It will, too, mean a great deal to the iutertesta of James Hill, for it will open up a way- from the East to the Orient. Men in railroad circles ate now aware of the shrewd manipulation of Hill and his co-workers. The ranch ers and the merchants see through it and that is why all are so positive that the road is a foregone conclusion. Of course during times like this, wl on such a gigantic move is on foot etery town wants a depot, and every outly ing village, swelled over its on n im port, starts a hot air story tint the road is coming this way or that way. The whole thing in a nut shell is that the road is coming down the uotth bank, and that it is for a Iihii-k n tineutal line connecting St. 1 mil with Portland, thus ottering a cliimce for the Northern Pacillc to market its stuff to the Orient.
