In cart, tho ordor says: "You will instruot local oUlcetHjthht It la equally their duty to facilitate the issuance of flnul cert ideates to bona tide settlers as to guuid the in terests of the public and government in preveutlugt illegal entries and that, in the performance ot their du ties, the will be held to strict ac count for the exercise of sound din oietlon and gcod judgmout. it is ex pooted that reigsters and reaelvers in their respective districts will obtain knowledge of the general character and quality of the publio iaud over whtab their ;urlsdiutioo extends, and iu the disposition of caces before these olilcers they should make use of aid kuowledge, either iu aiding the eutrymen or in preventing an illegal entry, as the case may be. In accordance with the routoronce which we have hud, you will at once take such action as is necessary so ns to organize your fluid him) ollice force, either by wuy of redistdbutiuu or couoentiation, as will make it pos sible to most eliuctively carry out the order of the president. All regulations or instructions in conflict herewith are revoked. " Id discussing the order Secretary UarBeld said : "Ibis order is one ot unusual im portance to the citizens of the publio land states, involving as it does about 30,000 entries and a large number of looatlons and selections which have accumulated iu the geuerul land oltlce ponding examination before the issu ance of patents. Included in these are about 120,000 homesteads, "000 tim ber and stone ami other cash entiles made under spocllic laws, 'JOOO desert land and 600 minerul entries. "To bring the work up to dute the cleiioal force of the general lund)olllce is working overtime and will be em ployed fully ton weeks. The force and means now availshle will be used to the utmost limit to expediate the pat enting ot lands where the eutrymen have oomplied with the law iu good faith." fruit Land 1 Selling High. The Wenatohee Kopuhlio announces a leooid-breaking sale of fruit lands iu that rich irrlagtod valley oi Chelan county. An Improved six-acre or chard has recently chaugod ownership, the buyer giviug 92,000 an a ire tor the place. Jt is planted to apple trees, now six years old, and is in come propel ty. The purchaser is nn experienced fruit urower from the Okanogan valley of British Columbia, and consider he has a bargain iu his orchard, lie states that, with proper management, he expects to make vhe place pay a dividend of 20 per cunt annually on the cash invested. Five years ago the tract, which now sells for f'2000 an acre, whs one of the ordinary places being redeemed from the desert. It whs t lion pur chased for ti'Ml, which was cons d ered a good pi ice. Since that time the owner ha iruproved the tin in, and the trees bare grown into crop producers. And the expected lias come to psss iu the filtillmeut of the prophecy that irrigated fruit lands would command $2000 an Here. That price does not appear exorbitant when the growers leport harvestiug fruits that pay alt expenses and leave a mar gin ot 20 per cent for profits on the money and labor expended. There are thousands of acres of good fruit lands lylug in the deseits and timbered areas of Washington. The present value of many such tracts might be rjekoned at less than $10 an acre, liut with water for irriga tion, or the stumps and logs cleared away for crops, the price would in crease many fold. Values are counted on the producing possibilities of the land. Values are counted on tbe pro ducing possibilities of the laud. Oi chards that return $ 1000 an acre every year when planted to marketable ap ples, peaches or pears certainly are worth the original purchase price of 12000 an acre. It seems like an exag eration of faots, or the common jug gling of figures to asset t that such in comes are possible; but thny are mat ters of record. .'. The opportuntics for securing valu able lands are better today than in former years. Ibe yo'ing men of the present have all the modern facilities at 4 their command for the develop roeut of profitable fruit farms.

At a recent meeting between the heads of the mills on Pugot sound and General Manager Horn, of the Northern Paoitlo, according to C. A.

Mr. I'eplow added that there aie ten million bushels of wheat now east of the mountains iu the state ot Wash iugtoj alone awaitiug to be brougnt to this port aud inability to get cars here bus practically ruined the trade iu the Orieut that has taken years to ueveiop.

TAKE A LOOK AT UNDERWOOD Underwood, Waah., offers the only remaining chance of purchasing firt-t class fruit land in the famous Hood Hiver district at a reasonable price. Underwood is only two miles from Hood Hiver, (just across the Columbia) and in addition to all that Hood Hiver can grow, Underwood, being better pro tected, has a peach crop of the highest quality KVKKYyear, while her btiawbcr ries are ten days earlier and catch the big prices. 8hould you like something beside fruit, how does time crops ol alfalfa, 4 to 0 feet tall, six tons to the acre, Viithout irrigation, strike you? That is what B. F. Heals of Under wood does while lie is resting. Underwood offers some of the most delightful locations for homes of any place on the Columbia river. Magnili cent views of mountains, rivets and valleys, pure bracing mountain air, southern exposure, protected from the raw up-stream winds. Tbe land bas been held by old si t tlers, content to make a living in other ways than growing fruit, but witli the building of the North Hank road, on which the rails are now being laid, this land i is coming on tho market, and the prices now are certainly lower than any to be found on the Oregon side of t quul quality, especially when you remember that Underwood is now only 20 minutes from Hood Klver, while iu six months Hood River will be coming over to ship Ler fruit on our railroad and then it will take more money to buy Under wood land. We have several tracts of both im proved and timber land for sale. If you fail to find what you want in Hood River, drop me a card, take Underwood Ferry. I will meet you at the dock and you will be in a fair way to become a resident of Underwood, for it needs but to be seen to convince you of the ad vantage of buying here either for a home or for speculation.
