California Trees byiiir and Dealers
Are Looking to Oregon to
Supply the Trade.
While apples and strawberries have
bean considered tbe greatest money
making crops tbat could be raised in
tbe fruit line lu Oregon there is a
possibility tbat cherries may iu the
very near future be in the front rauk
aa money getters.
One of tbe most proiino cnerry
growing sections in this country has
been California ana iruit, or nue qual
ity and plenty of it has heretofore
been raised there. In fact it baa sup
plied the western and some ot the
eastern markets with this flue fruit
for a number of years and baa received
very profitable returns from them.
Reports are now to tbe ellect tbat
tba cherry orchards of California are
are last disappearing and that tbey
will Dot be able this year to oome any
where near supplylug tbe demand.
Buyers have been scouring the C'tall-
fornia cherry growing diatrots and
maklnir oontraots for fruit and have
Invaded Portland also with a view to
obtaining as large a supply as possible
there from tbe commission men.
This week California parties were
in tbe above named city trying to
make a deal with Davenport Bros.,

Portland aud reship thetu to other

tbe Willamette valley may be having
Its effect in creating this suddeu de
mand for such large quantities lu ad
vance, but it does not account foi the
shortage of the crop in California,
Several growers at Mosler nave been
verv successful in raising mis iruit
aud have found It very profitable,
Btranse as It may seem, while Tho
Dalles district and southern uregon
have Buffered from the Inroads ot the
last cold snap flood Kiver ana ine
M osier district have escaped and no
damage as far aa can be ascertained
bat been done eltner to peaonea or
cherries. A well known grower who
has a large number of peach trees lu
the valley brought several limbs from
his trees to town a lew days ago ana
bad them examined by several experts.
The buds were cut open aud out of ten
of them examined only two were found
ta be iu lured

It would seem that tbere ought to be
some method ot counteracting the ef -
fects of the diseases tbat kill these
trees if the matter was gone into as
thoroughly and soientitloally as has
the growing of apples, mere does
not seem to be ttie interest among

there is a good future here for tbe
oberiy and that the time is not far
distant when more 01 them will be
planted.
How Newspapers Are Worked.
This week an attorney of tbe town
called us aside to tell us be bad an lm
cortant news item for oa. It was a
law auit of some magnitude but the
Important part was ot course his eon
neotion with it which be wanted to
get before tbe people. We did'nt write
it up.
A van at the head of one of the
leading industries of the town hinted
to us the other day we lacked enter
nrise because we did not give his
business a two or three-column wiite-
up at our expense. His business bas
not paid ns a cent in five years. It
making Dim more inan aiuu every
month. The man may have meant
well, but he was aoting very, very
cheap. He looks to as like a sponge.
Home years ago a man wun a Dene'

several weeks to give space In our

Protect Proprietary Medicines.
Did itever occur to you that proprietary
medicines are a blessing to mankind
generally. Tbe good ones have long con
tinued sale; the poor ones have short
life and in sin leave the market.
If we had to depend entirely upon phy
sicians and druggists it would be expen

especially in the country and at night
when neither could be conveniently
reached. For nearly forty years Boa

many families, and thousands of lives of
adults and children have been saved ny

a physician. German Syrup is the best
household remedy for cougns, corns,

lieves the hacking cough, loosens tne
phlegm, and brings sound and refresh

Resources.
That the Commercial organization
of Portlaud do not iuteud to let the
good work of the Lewis A, Clark expo

traffic
While there was some complaining
from the small towos in the state to
tbe effect that the fair last year took
oiuob money from them tbe wisdom
of its projectors In booming it Is now
admitted on all sides. The good re

portant conventions to lie held on the
cor t this season two of which have
been secured for Portland and an ex
hibition of tho products of the state

ood to the movement to make Ore
