Owing to the rattier Hunt crop in the valley this yer and the act that tnoi-t of the orchards coutaiu mixed varieties of trees made it hard to get a rarload of fancy ap plea ot auy one variety from a single oiobard in the valley. However 0. H.Sproat planned to euter a carload of Spiizenuergs for the Elliott prize aud sweepstakes. The rules lead that the show the wrappers were to be r. moved from the top layer. M.r. Sproat wrapped all of his t:pple on the theory tl at the carload lots would all he wrapped. He iiiter asceitiioed tbat nianv ot the caiload exhibitor were to be shown w'th the top layer tmwrapied aud he realized thtt they would have advantage from this fact. It would have loosened the pack so much to remcve the wrappers of the 'op layers after reaching Spok ane, that the scoring pack would have fallen low. As Mr. Sproat had already wrapped each 1 lyer of his exhibit it would nave made it ueces sary to make an entire repack to put his oar iu thape 'or the uliow As this would have been expensive aud as there was soaroely time to accomplish it in time to exhibit at the show, Mi.

The follwoing from the Drain Noo-pan- I represents the impression ot Hood Kiver gained by one of the visitors of the State W. C. T. U , convention held beie laat moutn. One does not live .long in Oregon without heariug of "that wonderful Hood Kiver coiiutry"- the land of red apples. So much do we hear abuot its wealth and beauty, tbat we soon have a ploture in our minds of a place last equal to the Kuiry Laud ot our obildboud dieams When a tew weeks ago wo were promised a visit t'i llr.od Ki Vr we naturally look forth to it wth ha Mm f anticipa tions. Visions ot red apples danoed before our eyes big red apples not iuiy tor the good iitlle buy that ays ells the t utb, but enough nil the boys, the last part of journey going over was niHile in nitrlit so we did not see any ot country suirouuding, the h 1'be next morning at the Hist good daylight, we were uiit to take a loot aud we saw what? A very OOmtnOL looking town I Wo i ii litied o i r eves aud looked again Yen. there could hi mi mistake ahout II. Those trees were oaks-just the oominon kind that we use tor stove wood at Drain And not a led apple in sight. And tr complete the dinsapointment an "Oiegnn hit" was flooding the Land oape. With a sigh we turned from the window, "Yea, another big story. Alter bieaktast we'll run over and climb old Mount Hood just to have it said we did climb it, and then we'll go hack to Drain where tbere leally is something worth looking at " Wo weie very Imsy the next two days, aud forgot our dissapniotment in work. The third day the sun Hhoue. things took on a brighter look, and when wo were invited to take a r ide through 'he orchards, we were glad to go. the business part of the town is built ou the side of a bluff over look iug the Columbia liver.
