BOOK IS OUT EVEN BETTER THAN LAST YEAR An 88-puj:e Publication Drioted tit i lie Resources of Oregon, Washing ton and Idaho. The new "year book" of the llarri man lines is beootulnu more aud more a valuable work, and as an advertising medium or showiuit ud the resources of the Pacific Northwest it bus no equal in this section of the country. It contains valuable information ol the various sections of the three stiites of Oregon, Washington and Idaho, gath ered with care from correct statistics, and the excellent compiling ot the work reflects, great credit ou the au thor, Kiualdo M. Hall, who is in charge uf the work under the direction of thejtoaseeuge department of the Oregon Kailroad and Navigation Com pany and the Southern Pact lie linos in Oregon. The lOOITbook contains new enuruv- iugs, new subject matter, aud work of a uign graue throughout, lu the back of the book is a nmp of the section of oouutry treated of in the book. As a guide to the boiueueeker. its Information may lie relied , upon us correct, no attempt being made to exaggerate, the theory of the passeu get department being that the truth is good enough. The laoilities of the raliioada for distributing information makes it of exceptional value as mi advertising medium. Eastern people intenaing to seeK Domes lu the west naturally loon to toe railroads for in formatlou. These books being in the nauas or eastern representatives lu every prominent city of the east, thev get into the hands of those whom it is nteuded to reach. The variety ol ro sources ni toe weal are great, auu are all treated of in the book. While fruit raising will appeal to one limn, another will prefer he wheat country, or lumber, or miniug. He can not some information from the book as to the localities where he desires to lo cate, which may be fullnwed tin bv application to the ooinmerclitl club aud boards of trade of any particular place that strikes his fancy. noon Klver comes in for a libera share of attention in the now book, extraots of which are given below : Apple trees in Oiegou begin baarinu at four aud five years of age. A true ten years old often beais teu bimlieli of marketable fruit, this same fruit Is freqently sold In carload lots at iU.fiO and I'lOU a bushel. ' Among the vario tios raised are Yellow Newton. Spltz- euberg, .lonathau, Northern Spy, Swaar, Greening, Wiuesap, Wolf Hiv er, Hen Davis, Uellellower, and Flora or Winter Banana, The industry is cairied on most Intelligently ' iu all parts of the state. The orchards are guarded zealously." The growers stand alitostas a unit ou the question of spraying, declaring It is the only means of protection, if tlrst-cusa ap ples are to be grown. The highest prioes ever piiil for ap ples from any orchard lu the United States was received in 1JK)2 for Hood Kiver Spitzenbergs aud Newtons. the former ranging from 12.(30 to fl.OO. and the latter from 42.25 to C2.5U per bushel box. The profit ou a box of Spitzenbergs at this price la about 2.ou. and on Newton fl.W flat. Ap ple orchards netted their owners in some instances as high as $500 an acre. Thequailtyjof the fruit was the finest, never jbaving been equaled in the his tory of apple raising. Out of the en tire shipun-ut of tiJ.OUO boxes there was not over 5 per cent of these ap ples that wore not fully up to the hiuh standard demanded by shippers ot Hood Kiver fruit. The Spitzenbergs and Newtons were of especially tine qusilty, anl none of them were below four tier, and many of tbom three and bait and three tier. Four oars of Hood Kiver Hu Id wins and red Kings were shipped to Alaska markets in the fall of l'M, for which the growers re ceived 11.2.") per box. The apple out fit of the valley for the year of r.XJu mcuntel to 1100,000. Kor Hood River vellow Nowtons. Bruno Franz received $021.24 ftoin three fifths of an acre; Ludwig Struck, l2,H!l7.4t, three and one-halt acres; U. It. Castuer, 11,15.1, three acres; A. 1. Masou, $(115, two and one-hull acres K I).

The Hood River strawberry output. 1005, brought the producers about 1175,000. There is scarcely a town lie- tween the Pact no ocean and the Mis souri river, Dorth of Arkansas and Colorado, that is not a consumer of Hood Kiver strawberries, while ship ments go to Chicago, New York and other eastern points, as well as to the far north. The great care taken in pioklng, packing and shipping these berries, together with their wonderful carrying qualities, has made the friut famous. From five to twenty acres is the size of the ranches or farms. n average acre of itrawberries yield 10 orates each year, and I he land can be kept in berries tour consecutive years, which, at an average income of 11.80 per orate, gives the grower an income of 1277.50 an acre. The cost of picking aud packing is C5 cents a orate, or 'J7.50 an acre, leaving 180 tor the laud aud cost of cultivation, Mulching is not necessary, as the ground does not freeze bard enough to do the plants injury. A riew instanoes of Hood Kiver strawberry yWds: I). McClure, 77M, three acres; J. W. Martin, f.'lri, one acre; O. W. Woodworth, U2,Ui0.S0, four acres ; U. A. McCurdy. $1.100. 15. three acres; J. W.

Hateham, Alosiur, six miles east of Hood Kiver, shipped 021 orates of strawberries from four and one half acres, netting him $2.25 per orate, receiving as high as $0.00 a crate for his early berries. Consider able attention is devoted to strawbet- culture at Ashland, Salem end other points in the Willamette valley, the industry proving a paying one. he Dalles. Mrilser M'ltnn.

The first fruit crop report of the seasou by the Canadian Department of Argiculture, issued this week, gives a fluttering condition of apples. The showing for bloom this year was never better, "lbe weather has been dry. though somewhat oold, but ou the whole favorable to pollination. Dis tricts 5 and $ are not sutliciently ad vanced for a full report. Karly and tall apples show somewhat better than winter fruit. Spys aud Kusseta are reported somewhat less than medium iu district 2 aud '.i, the chief source of these varieties for wiuter stock, liuld vvina for wiuter stock are reported medium, lialdwlns lu the south and Greenings ever where a full crop. The Duchess has au excellent showing everywhere. "It will be remembered that the in dications last May were almost, if not quite, as good as for this year, and yet the crop was below the avuiage. the most destructive fungus diseases aud insect euerules canuot yet be posi tively reported upon. Un the other band, the light orop of last year, which was also au excellent seasou lor growth, together with the favorable wiuter aud spring conditions of this year, throws t'.e probabilities iu favor of a large orop this year, not only iu Canada, but iu all aprle-growinu countries. Should these anticipations he vended, it will be impossible to market a poor quality of fruit, such as was sold iu large quantities lust year. Spraying Bhould, therefore, be continued in every orchard. No in vettuieut ou the farm will pay so well and It is prolmole that it will pay bet ter than usual this year." Pears are a medium orop, with less blight than last year. Plums aie light, peaches au average crop.
