PIONEER PREDICTS
MO MORE HIGH WATER
The fuot tlmt there ha tmet no
high water In the Columbia river now
for two ueuoiiH Iho&uhIuk plonour runi
dentg who have boeu familiar with
taie of water iu the river for iiihiij
veam to reinluince.
"The weather ain't what it hhhi! to
be an' the auaaona ia cbaiinii) ," tliey
lay.
'"Why," aald one old fellow, "thin
la the it rut time In iW yeara to my
knowledge that the boata have not
beou able to laud for two years In duo
oeaaion rinlit over there, pointing to
epot about 100 yards from the
Mount Hood hotel. "Why," he con
tinued, "there wasn't water .inonilh
tula year to Hood the bottom lamia
aornsg the river,
"The hlh water la atfolnter quit
oomlnii', 1 KueBM, aaine aa the lue did,
We youator not toe In iilouty here
yeara ago. The river lister friw.e over
moat every winter, yea, air. lint you
can't get uo Ice here now In the win
ter. Look at them loehouaea down
'long the river falilu' to plucioa. Ain't
been any ioe In them for yeara.
"It'll be the aame way with the
high water, 1 tell yer; it'll quit ooiu
lu', like the lee."
While not taking the poHHimiHtle
view of the pioneer above quutod In
regard to the failure of high water to
come for the paat two soiihoih, many
puraona who nave retdded along the
Columbia for goodly portion of tlutlr
lives, lubatautlate hie atutemout and
aay that they have never known high
water to lull fur two yeara in aminos
Ion. Old rlvermnn and lUlierinun
attribute the poor Hulling thia aeuon
to the lank ot high water ami any that
the Huh whola along the Columbia
between heu and Portland have made
the amalleat ontch In yeara. They ttn
couut for thia by the fact tlmt wlimi
, the water ia low the Huh have to fol
low the channel, which ia neoBUHiirily
In midatreaiu or uear It, ami do not
get into the eddlea where the whoeln
are looted. They alao aay that when
the watei ia low the Hah will nit come
up atream In aa great mimbura at
when it ia at a high atage.
The failure of the water to roncb
fouie of the bottom Innda along tin
river haa oauaed a partial loaa of aomo
oropi which required Irrigation early
in the "eason aud upon which water
cannot be got In any other way. Thia
ia laid to be the ouae with the toma
to crop on the Waahlugtu aide of the
river. Moat resident! do not, now
ever, beileve that high water haa

Oregon's First Fair.
A bit of Interesting hiatory III con

waa brought to light yeaterday In the
ottloe ot F. W. hurhiu.e eorutaiy ol
the Oregon state board of agriculture,
aaya the Hale in Htateaman.
Wille making an examination of the
oouteuta of an old client which com
priaea a part of the paiapheanalia of
that otllce, the aaiataut aeorelary, K
A. Wetoh, diacovered an old book
whiob had been uhI for the keeping
of the record of the "Marloon Coun
ty Agricultural Hocloty of Kiiltim, ().
T.," which whh oiganized during I lie
year 1854, while Oregon wa still a ter
ritory. The fliat step toward the formation
ot that society waa taken on the titli
day of April that year, when a meet
ing of the "farmera of Marion coun
ty was held at the court house "to
perfect arrangements foi the complete
organization of an agricultural associ
ation,." The minutes of the meeting show
that Governor John K. Dsvis was
chosen temporary ohairmau ami J. (1.
Wilson seoretry pro tern. On motion
of J. C. Ueer, jr., a committee of six
was appointed to draft a constitution
aud by-laws for the "government of
an agricultural association."
No records of the awards aud the
business of the first fair is to be found
in the book, and the next minutes are
those of the regular annual montlni; of
the society which waa held on Mon

Industry in the vicinity of Chi toll! on,
Mo., which is located on the Santa l'v
line about sixty miles east of Kansas
City, was issued this week by the
freight department of the Santa IV
Railroad company. From figures com
plied by agents of thisj company the
oiop of apples around Carrolltou prom
ises to amount to 51, 500 barrels. Cai
rollton Is on the mail) line of the San
ta Fe miming from Kansas City to
Chicago, which will enable people who
banudle the apples to secure tkvt-rliiss
transportation facilities. Th& Kant
Fe's circular is as follows:
"The preseut outlook points lo the
largest yield and beet quality of en-
ton Mo., has evei known. A peisomil
visit to the orchard disclosed almost
no woricy 'ruit and tournuly a blemish
of any chaiacter. Unless the unex
pected happens, tho percentage of
firsts will run exceedingly high and
the statement of old orchard ists ot
thirty years' experience, that this is
tho II nest crop Carroll county mm
had, will be tully substantiated i lie
growers already have about 50 er
cent of the barrel stock necessary tu
care fur the crop on hand and tl.e.v
intend bringing the supply up to I i.n
full amount required before harvest "

dropping everj thing else to do their
spraying on time and count uu big re
turns this year. A great many say
that they would nut go buck into the
old way and raise wormy fruit. They
think that the siitisfiictiou of just
looking at, their line apples pay for all
work and expense, aud their fruit is
all pro II I. The tomato orop is ulinost
a failure. Tho llrst crop t( blossoms
