HOCD KIVER QLAOIEE, THUhdDAT, SEPTEMEB 6; 1806, ST. JOHNS HAS TAKEN NOTICE From flood RIvor cornea tbe tidings that tbe fruit Urowers' (Joiou of tDat Tulley liave disponed of tbeii eotir crop of ISpllzeuberK applet at tbe re markable price of 13 per box or bet ter. Thin ix truly a wonderful price for apples thiee dollars per huabeL or more than four oeuta apiece. And this price is paid for tbe apples two months before tbey are ripe by a New York Hr.u wbo traveled past miles and miles of tbe finest kind of looking ap ple orobards in order to get to Oregon and secure ber best apples. Imagine making a trip back east and stopping oif at a farm bouse wbeie tbe farmer was bupy gathering bis crop of apples. And sauntering over to where he was busily engaged in filling bis bags or bairels with big apples aud little apples, wormy apples and diseased ap ples whiob bad weathered tbe frosts and tbe storms an I tbe beat of tbe sun, and you should gently whisper in bis ear that Oregon fruit raisers were getting three dollars a bnsbel for tbeir apples, uo matter how well you might be acquainted with tbe farmer nor how high your reputaiton for truth and veracity might be in tbat partioular locality, this farmer would then and forever tbereaftei look with suspicion on your statements and doubt any further assertions you might make concerning the Oregon country Anfytbing else could not be xpected of the average eastern farm er. He knows be raises some very good apples in bis own orchard and is very glad to dispose of them for fifty cents a bushel, but three dollars a box is beyoud bis comprehension. So many thingB out of the oidinary occur in Oregou and are reported from time to time tbat eastern peo ple are iucredulous. 1'he middle class never tHwtea a Hood Kiver Spitzen beig. Tbe idea of paying ten cents apiece for tbem in the New York mar kets is preposterous to tbem, but it is a fact tb t they are leadily disposed of there to the wealthier class at from $4.50 to $0 per bushel. St. Johns Re view. flood River's Latest Success. Tbe picking last week of sever.il Casaba cantaloupes on tbe ranch of K. II. Sbepard is said by fiuit growers to demonstrate tbat Hood River valley can produce many varieties of fruits tbat it bas as yt never attempted to grow. Tbe Casaba cantaloupe ie said to be not only tbe finest but tbe most delicate variety of this much esteemed fruit annd originally it was thought that it could not be grown outside of Mexico to which it was considered in digenous. Of late vears it bas been cultivated at Orants Pass, in this state, and it bas always been said that tbey could not be grown elsewherejn Oregon. The successful growing of tbem ou tbe ranch of Mr. Sbepard, several of which be has exhibited and give1) to frieuds shows, however, tbat suob is not tbe caso. Tbese melons are said to bring tbe top notcb price for oautalnupes in Portland, retailing for as high as 40 and 50 oents apiece. It is thought tbat the soil in some lo calities is particularly adapted to rais ing tbem and tbat it given cultivation commercially tbey might prove a most lucrative crop. Spokane Interstate Fair. One of the most important move ments ever started in tbe Pacific Northwest Is tbe convention whiob has been oalled to meet in Spokane. Sept. 25, during tbe Spokane Inter state fair, to which all tbe commero ial bodies in Washington, Oregon, Idaho aud Montana have been invited to send deiegutes. U. B. Dennis, ct airman of the publicity committee of the chamber of commerce, and Theodore li. Wilcox, chairman of tbe executive oommittee of tbe Portland Commercial club, have issued tbe call, wbicb has been widely published by tbe press in tbe Faoiuc Woitliwen, Many ot tbe leading commercial bod ies already have signified tbeir in ten tion of sending delegates and to assist in every way possible witn tbe worn Tbe Call says: "Tbe purpose of this gathering is to bring togetber tbe rep reteutative meu of the most (prosper out sections of the United States, and after a thorough consultation, unite upon a Plan to advertise the actuaal resouroees, and not to exploit tbe pe culiar advantages of any cf tbe cities. Kverv city and town in tbe four states is eaually interested in secur ing the home builder, for it ia only through incresed population tbat we can develop tbese tremendoua resoarc es." The railroads will grant low rates to all delegates. One line of work lor tbe convention will be to take steps to induce tbe legislature for tbe tour states interested to make appropria tious for advertising the nortbwest. What a Fossil Editor Saw. We understand that quite a number of Portland ladles bave taken to wear ing socks without making any fuss about it, and find tbem so cool and comfortable that tbe habit is rapidly growing. We- accidentally saw a few ourselves, going on and off tbe street oars, in the metropolis last week, and a far as we could see tbey were all ritfht. Tbe calves appeared to be clean and there was nothing offensive to tbe naked eye about tbem. There is no reason why au armless sleeve shone? be approved and leggless stock ing tabooed.
