ina nine young ladies to entertain the
guests during tbeii stay lu the city.
The party were met at the train
Thursday morning from The Dalles,
where they had spent the previous
Aos and Asnntted to the Mt. Hood
hotel. At nine o'clock they wero lak-
cu for a drive through the valley iu
two wagonettes, makiug the Uist stoo
at U. O. Bateham's, where they were
treated to grape. The second itop
was made at the Davidson &, Van
Horn orchard on the Davidson hill,
where tbey weie given an opportuni
ty tn niek untiles. It was quite an
event and thoroughly enjoyed. It was
the Brst time in their lives thai tnoy
ever picked real appes from a tree, as
apples do not grow upon the islands
where they have pasHed their lWes. It
is said that Hood River is the Hrtt
place in all tbeii travels where they
have been allowed such a privilege,
and they thoroughly appreciated it.
Crossiug llocd river at Tucker's
bridge, they weie taken to tne ensi
side and made the next stop at an
Horn butte, where the best view nf
the valley, especiallv the line or
chards of the east side, can be ob
tained. It was an inspiring picture.
From there they went to the Mason
orohard, shown through the Hue or
chard, saw the famous seedless pear
tree, were losded down with apples,

esting sight for the visitors, who in
spected a saw mill for the first time,
ihey explained that theie were no
saw mills on the Islands, all their
lumber being brought in from the
Hates. Ihey said that there were vast
tracts of flue timhei in their country
whioh was not being utilized, and
bluted that it would be a good oppor

They were next given a ride tip Into

The importance of killing theso 36
wolves In one natlonul forest is real
ized only when tbe extent or aamage
which is done by these animals in a
year ia known. Vernon Bailey, who
made aa Investigation of the ravages
of wolves last year for the forest ser
rice, reported that iu a certain part
of New Mexico a moderate climate of
the stock killed by four wolves waa a
yearling cow or calf every three days,
or approximately 100 head of cattle a
year to eaoh wolf. Counting all aa
calves at the low rate of 110 a bead,
eaoh wolf would cost the ranohman
aiivm a vaar. This would make sav
ing of 130,000 a year to the ranchmen
in the Yellowstone national forest,
where the several huntera mentioned -accomplished
auoh etteotUe work. Ot
the eleven huntera at work Oregon
geta one and the others are dlstrlbut
,i th.nnoh tha wnHtern states.
. The work of killing off wolvea and
other predatory animala on the other
national forests ia going on equally
well, aud the stockmen giazing under
permit in tne rangB
boundmlea of the forests will beiayed
many thousands of dollars annually.
An indirect good coming from tbe
government's activities will be to spur
ranchers grazing outside the national
forests to join in tbe work of ridding
the western ranges of destructive ani
mala. Besides the great saving
through preventing the loss of stock,
further enoouragement ia given work
in many states where counties as uigu
in aonie states cases 150 a head are
given for killing wolves and t20 and
130 a head for mountain llona.

Editor Glacier We have just re
ceived your issue of October 3rd, and
note that you have received a apeolal
wire from New York regarding the
sale of the Uimioe pears that we made
tor acoouut of O. 11. Lewis, and also
the sale made by one of our competit
ors covering the J. W. Perkins oar of
Cornice, showing a difference of lesa
than 1100 In our lavor, ana wuuu yuu
have it right aa far as being tbe high
eBt priced car of Comioe ever sold in
this or any other market, yet by the
realized printed catalogue which went
forward to you some time ago, you
will note that there were 84 boxea of
No. 2 stock In tb'a oar, whioh waa
quite a handicap in grossing moie
than Perkins. Had this oar of oura
been a straight car of half boxea, we
would have grossed at least 1250 more
tbau we did, but as it stands now, we
tbiuk it will be some time before our
prices will be relogatsd to the rear;
in fact we think that this reoord price
will stand for a good many years to
co me. . ,
We not only hold the reootd for
prices on pears, but through our oon-
