HOCD RIVER GLACIER, THUKSDAY, SEPTEMER 20, 1906,
FATAL ACCIDENT
NEAR LYLE
The men were working on bridge
ahont a mile below Lyle and at It
o'clock Thursday afternoon were en
gaged iu moviug the pile driver.
While they were letting it down an in
oliue the anchor rope broke, allowing
it to sll mid turn over, burying un
derneath it the engineer, Mill Wil
liams. Another man, Cieorge Lund,
waa also caught, but after a half min
ute succeeded iu crawling out. Three
others who aere injured were M. L.
Potior, Edward (Jong and W. S. Dav
is. The scene was a distressing one, the
groans of the injured men uunerviug
their fellow workmen, who were en
deavoiing to assist them. Finall)
Williams was extricated from Ois aw
ful position, and juet as they were
debating wont to do with the injured,
the steamer Keling came iu eight and
they were placed on the boat land
brought to The Dalles, reaching here
at 4 o'clock, the trip boing made in
thirty minutes.
They were at once taken to the
hospital, where Drs. Ferguson and
Reuter and the eutire hospital corps
were kept busy during the eutire
night.
Engineer Williams was found to he
in a pitiable condition his body be
ing simply oooked by the steam from
the engine. The wonder is that he
lived to. teach the hospital. All that
could be done for him waa to relieve
bis sufferings and he died 7 o'clock
iu the evening. lie is a single man

arm and a cut on the he.d.
W. S. Davis, who received thu least
injuries, has bis right arm broken in
three places.

I'i ci uri.ged by the strides Hood
Ri.er is making in the fruit business,
the Dufur Dispatoh remarks:
The recent reports in the papers
shows what may be done, and is
being done, in the fruit industry by
our neighbors at Hood River, and !e
there any reason why we in the neigh
borhood of Dufur - should not do the
same thing? For the past two years
we have bad at least a partial failure
of the wheat crop, and it seems to ni
that it would be well to try the grow
ing of fruit. There is no plane along
Fifteeu Mile creek that will not raise
good fruit if properly taken care of.
U. P. ISaloh has some peaches this
year that cannot be beaten for lus
oiousness aud flavor, and the size
is very good for the amount of fruit
the trees bear. John Havely brought
us n sample of some esobes that were
raised on his plaoe in Dufur without
irrigation that were very One, and
George Johnson tells us that up Fif
teen Mile creek, in a fence corner,
are peach trees that bear fine fruit
which are not oared for at all If this
be true of trees without oare or water
what may we not do if the trees are
oared for in the proper way? The land
all along Fifteen Mile creek is well
adapted to the raising of fruit and if
planted to fruit trees would make the
laud worth $100 per aore where it now
is worth but from 140 to 50. Wbat
we have here said concerning peaches
may be said of apples and pears, both
of them are adapted to this climate
and country particularly the New
towns and Spitzenberg. With a 20-
acre pieoe of land planted to these
trees a yield of 1,500 may be realized
while from the present products of
the land at the best, we can get but
$50 returns.

A Miner's Inch.
The Mining World savs: A miner's
inch is the anantitr of the water de
livered through each square inob of
opening, and which varies from 1.4 to
1.7 cubic feet of water er minute.
The custom among enginrera is to
take 1.5 oubio feet of water per min
ute as the equivalent of an inch. For
illustration: 1,000 miner's inches of
water (25 oubio feet per second) is
about the quantity which would be
carried by an ordinary wooden flume
30 inches wide, flowing 18 iucbes
deep if the flume had fall of oue
inch per box of 12 feet (36 feet per
mile) this giving a stream velocity of
0.7 feet per second

A Serious Pest.
Wbat is the meaning of the word
"producer " as applied to tbe fruit
industry? Tbe man who plows up
pieoe of ground, digs holes, buys a
miscellaneous assortment of trees and
sticks them in the boles, grows any
old-kind of fruit, is careless in spray
ing, pruning and cultivating, gathers
half a dozen boxes of a kind, all
wormy, scaly, measly, tasteless, all
sizes, all colors, all worthless except
for bog feed, is a holy terror to the
middl -man and the despair of tbe
bnver and oonsumer. He is not a pro
ducerhe is a pest-breeder. Like tbe
lilv referred to in tbe Good Book, he
"toils not," neither does he produoe
fruit, and oerttainly "Solomon in all
his glory" was not arrayed a one of
these. He dumps bis - worthless
wares in the packing house and de
mands of the middleman top prices;
and, when be cannot get them, turns
"knocker" and runs down tbe Indus-t-y
aud everyone connected with it.
Let . as try to forget bis existence,
and hope for the happy days wben be
may no longer be tbe only fruit pest
that it is murder iu tbe 9rst degree
to deliberately kUl -W. a Offner.
One Thousand Year Old Roue.
One of tbe interesting horticultural
curiosities of Kildesbeim, Germany,
of which our staff correspondent, who
Is spending bis sunnier vacation
there, sends a photograph, is a thous
and year old rose ("1.000 jariger
Ro-enstock"). Judging from tbe il
lustration it is still vigorous, and
covers, or appears to do so, quite a
large building. It seems also to re
ceive .careful attention, and, quite
likely, is in charge of oue ot tbe rose
experts, for which Germany Is noted.
It would be a matter of interest to
know the history of this rose, as well
as of tbe political and social obanges
which have taken place since It was
first established iu - be fertile soil of

I wish to say to all pur old friends and custom
ers who for so many years came to our shop for
their meats, that it is useless for me to introduce
Wood Bros., our successsors, as their 18 years in
the butcher business in Wasco county has made
them so widely known that un introduction is un
necessary. Being honest, capable business 'men,
they have the means and ability to rwn a business
as it should be run, and in a way that will be a
credit to our city.
I expect to stay with the new firni for awhile,
and will be glad to see-you all at the old stand. 1
will guarantee that you will get just as much meat
for your money, just as courteous treatment and
just as prompt service as can be had in the city.
We will have a full line of everything good to
eat for the Spring trade,
