A meiHrt reoeived last week by E.

u row era union, to tne eneot that a
oar ioad t.I apples wbiub anion grow
er exhibited at tbe leceot trait fair
here, bail been sol I in New York at

Kiver apples u heretofore suoh prio
ea have only been obtained for two
varieties Spitzenbergs and New
towns. That color plays an important patt
In tbe sale of apples in eastern mar
kets is avidenoed by tbe fact tbat tbe
green varieties told for less than tbe
red, the luttei bringing the t i prioe
and tbe former f'2.75. Mr. Shepard
tbluks tbat this mark i a new depart
ure fot Oiegon fruit and tbat tbe va
rieties wbiob bave not before been
very favorably reoeived lu tbe big
tnttrkets of the east will in future
oommand a better prioe.
Tbe successful marketing of the
fruit was accomplished by advertising
it in the fruit trade journals aud sell
ing it to tbe highest bidder after hav
ing bad it displayed in a large show
window connected with the establish
ment of Loom is & Co. Tbe apples
were sent to this firm to dispose of on
commission and as an experimeut and
tne stile oi tne entire nine varieties
which comprised the lot is said by
the apple growers of the union to be
a long step in tbe direction of mak
ing a market for all varieties of no-
pies grown at Hood Hi er. Iu it were
included Hed Cheeks, Aikannas Mack,
Oravensteln Ortleys, Aiken Hed,
Kings, Wealthiea and one or two oth
er varieties.
Tbe idea of bavins th aonles dis
played in tbe distriot wbeie tbe trade
has its headquarters aud enabling
them to see just wbat they were buy
ing before tney made any offer for
tbe apple, Mr. Sbepard thinks, will
do muob more to get big prices for
Oregon fruit, and make it better and
more favorably known than any other
plan tbat could have been devised and
says that Its auooe as means much
in tbe future. In sending tbe apples
east for sale the growers who owned
them placed them in the bauds of the
union to be sold for whatever they
would bring after being advertised
and exhibited.
A Prominent apple man here bad off
ered to put up tbe money to defray
the expensea of freight aud other
charges and the quoted prioe of tbe
fruit at Hood liver, in their message
Loomis & Co. state that tbe entire
shipment was sold in 24 hours after it.
was put on exhibition.
Estimates on the apple crop are in
creasing and it is expected that tbe
crop will reach 250,000 boxes. That
Is tbe number tbat bave been made to
market tbe crop, aud is about
twioe as many apples as were ever
sent out of Hood Kiver durlug any
previous season..
Manage! Hbepard, or tbe union. Is
authority for tbe statement that 90
oars of fruit have beeu sold by tbnm
and that 30 more cars of Newtowus
could bave been disposed of if they
could bave been obtained.
Tbe otilce and warehouse force of
tbe union has bad to be increased
this year to 12 men where previous!)
four or Jflve were able to do tbe work,
and it bag been necessary to hare 00
packers in the field to pack the ap
ples. Unable to secure men for ti e
work tbe experiment of using girls
bas been tried and a number of (hem
bave been found to make very good
packers.
J. bat tbe problem of getting enough
packers and pickers will bave to bo
solved before next year is tbe opinlou
of tbe union growers and all others
who bave given tbe matter any

towns of Hood River's oIubs. Tbis is
not all, for, it we are not mistaken,
she ia tbe only contestant for a trip
ot this kind tbat bas ever been in tbe
lead in a race of tbis kind. It now
looks as though Miss Sharp would
win, and it behooves Hood Kiver peo
pie to give ber a boost. If we can
send Miss Sharp to tbe Jamestown ex
position yon cau wager that they will
know where Hood Kiver is and all
about it, as she bas the happy faculty
of seeing everything tbat is worth ecu
Ing and telling it In a way that Is
both convincing and interesting. At
present tbe young lady is employed at
tbe Paris Fair, where she and her
sister are well known and deservedly
popular. Remember Mies Sharp when
you buy the Telegram and that sbe is

contest.
Tbe Tale of an Umbrella.
A tale wblcb ought to bave a moral
to It la told by a Hood Kivei man
whojreoently lost his umbrella aud en
deavored to replace it with one be
longing to somebody elne.
Tbe man who lost tbe umbrella is a
well known resident here wbo bas
been recently superintending logging
operations for the Oregon Lumber
company at Dee. 1 won't tell you bis
name, but be is about six feet tall bas
a small grey mustache and takes bis
meals at tbe Mount Hood botel.
While eating bis dinner at tbe hotel
be happened to mention to a not hoi
man wbo is employed in a bank tbat
he bad lost bis umbrella and tbe bank
man told bim tbat an umbrella had
Deen lert in tne Dank tbat morning.

"it's mine. I was in tbe bank tbis
morning and was wondering wbere I
bad left it. Keep it for me and I will
oall for it." The bank man agreed to
this aud put tbe umbrella in tbe
vault.
A short time after this tbe lumber
man happened to meet a friend trom
i'ortland wbo was at Hood Kiver and
told blm how nicely be bad succeeded
in replacing bis lost umbrella. About
bait an hour afterward the Portland
man stepped Into tbe bank and told
tbe bank man wbo wa will oall "Cop'
tbat be bad been sent after tbe urn
brella by tbe lumber man which was
given blm and be took tbe afternoon
train for Portland.
Having occasion to use tbe protect
or from moisture tbe lumber man a
abort time afterward went to tbe
bank Jancf putting on a disarming
am lie remargea casually:
"Cop I'll take that umbrella now."
"I guess you won't" said Cop,
"BUJie Frost was here and got It bait
an hour ago. He said you told him
to get it"
What tbe lumber man said would
not look very well in print and it is
expected tbat tbe Portland man will
have to transaol bis business at Hooq

WILL OPEN 2,000
ACRESOF LAND
STANLEY-SMITH CO. DEVELOPERS
To Be Irrigated by Water Beeeatl
Found that Will Aim Sbb
ply Their Flames.
By tbe sub-dividing of 2,000 acres
of and which they own, tbe Stanley
Smith Lumber company will throw
open an opportunity to get soma fruit
land tbat la considered by many equal
to any in the valley.
Tbe land la question lies between
tbe Ureen Point mill and tbelr planer
and the ouly thing tbat baa prevented
it from being taken up before was
tbat it lacked irrigation.
This feature baa now, it la said,
been overcome and tbe land baa beeu
surveyed into small tracts tbat will be
suitable for fruit farms.
The story of obtaining water for the
purpose ot irrigating it is an interest
ing one and is coupled witb the eftoit
of the mill company to get a plentiful
supply of tbis necesary fluid to opei -ate
its flume at all seasons of the year.
During tbe summer season the sup
ply of water which tbe Stanley Smith
company has heretofore ' bad, came
very near giving out and It was feared
tbey would bave to close tbeir big
mill which was cutting In tbe neigh
borhood of 100.000 feet of lumber a
day. Tbe system ot getting logs to
tbeir mill and getting tbe lumber
away from tt is probably not equalled
anywhere in tbe state of Oregon for
economy. From the time the logs
leave the woods until the lumber is
pulled out of tbe flume, many miles
away, it is scarcely touched by human
bands. Tbe logs are floated to the
mill in a big flume aad tbe lumber
taken away from It by the same
means, making the cheapest mode of
transportation tbat can be provided.
When the sui ply of water commenc
ed to run abort last summer tbe com
pany believing that there might be a
big supply in tbe mountains near
their plant that bad Inot been devel
oped, broached tbe idea to Mark Dav
enport, the well known timberman,
ivdo volunteered to make a search.
For many weeks Mr. Davenport
tramped tbe country for miles around
the mill spending days and nights in
it alone and becoming so familiar
with it that he was able to start out
from bis camp and go up bill and
down dale witb an unerring accuracy
that was tbe amazement ot those who
tried to follow him.
After many weeks of search and re
search and toil and privation be final
ly located a water supply that la said
to be so great that tbe mill can not
use it all when tt la fully developed.
With ita aurplus it la tbe intention of
the; mill company to irrigate the big
traot of land whlob tbey recently had
surveyed and to throw it open to in
vestors
Witb the arrangement of a pond at
tbe mill in which tbe logs are dumped
the water will be taken out of tbe low
er side of it and ditched down over
tbe hillsides to tbe valley to be used
as occasion reqiires. This, it is said,
will not Interfere with the supply for
tbe flume loadlug from the mill to
tbe railroad as It is adequate for all
purposes aud witb some to spare.
It Is not expected taat anything
more will be done in tbe development
of tbe project tbis wiuter but It Is
stated tbat next spring will see it
placed In operation, '
Remarkable Tree Grows Seedless Fruit
Tbe Spokesman-Review, published
at Spokane, shows a picture of a seed
less pear in a recent number or it ana
says that it was taken from a tree tbat
yielded several boxes of tbe fruit.
The owner ut the freak tree lives near
Spokane aud the Review says that be
says tbat In tbe home orchard set
out by tbe pievlous owner of the
place Is a pear tree, wbiob bas torne
for tbe first time this season. It
yielded about four boxea of fruit, and
every pear tbat he bas out open from
this tree he has fouud to be seedless;
in fact, this was tbe only pear tree
tbat bora th'a year, tbe fruit of tbe
others having been seriously effected
by tbe oold snap last spring.
Mr. Ne veil's quarter section is in
tbe timber belt near Spokane. Over
100 sores, however, li ive been cleared
and on it the practices diversified
farming, raising pretty near every
thing tbat can be raised here, be
says, tie bad about l.auo Dusneis oi
oats tbis season. He baa remarkable
suocess with an acre and a half tons.
Tbis oat bay was raised on ground
tbat was in potatoes lust year. , He
made something of an experiment in
potato planting this year. He put in
some potatoes on May 11, some others
on Mry 17, and planted yet others on
tbe 11th of June. The last planted
yiedled the best by all odds., he says.
Mr. Newel came from Michigan
about four years ago and bought hla
quarter section from John Donahue
of Trent.
Stolen Watch Recovered.
Al watch which baa been missing
since last September was discovered
Saturday in tbe jewelry store of R.
H. Laraway wbere it bad been left to
be repaired. The time-piece was stol
en from tbe truuk of J. Kieger, an
employe at tbe Menominee mill, and
although sea rob was made for it at
the time and the man saspeoted of
taking It apprehended, ' it could not
be found. Tbe man wbo left it to be
repaired bought it for t5 and saya
that be did not know tbat it had been
stolen and will return it to its owner.
A warrant bas been issued for the
an est ot tbe original suspect whose
name is not known end who ia not in
this vicinity at present. Ibe watch is
said to be worth 125.
Lost Valuable Bear Dogs.
Mordeoai Jones recently lost three
valuable bear dogs during a bunt in
which be and several of bia friends

D. Mears, wbo says tbat two of tbe
animals were killed by a bear and tbe
other met its death by being bit by a
glancing bullet tbat struck tbe bear's
skull and was thrown from its coarse.
Mr. Jones Is said to bave been very
muob affected by the loss of the ani
mals aa they were most excellent
hunters and had been In bia posses
sion for a long time.
