Phone 5 EAST IS LOOKING TOWARDS THE WEST J. H. Fredricy, agent for the O. R. & N. Co. at Hood Kiver, returned Sat urday from a three rnonths' trip to the east, where he visited friends and rel atives in the state of Pennsylvania, New York City, Boston, St. Louis, Washineton. Chicairo. and also a brother and sister in Oklahoma and Kansas. Mr. Fredricy said that bus iness conditions were good all over the east except m Kansas and Oklahoma, where the crops were a failure this year. He was royally entertained and had a very pleasant time. "I found a keen interest generally in the Pacific Northwest among all classes of people," said Mr. Fredricy. "Business men. and people of means, want to get away from the cold climate and the congested business conditions of the cast. While Hood Kiver was pretty well known everywhere I went, yet all of the places in the Northwest were inquired about. I talked Hood Kiver verywhere I went, and was on a conservative basis, fortifying myself with literature and proofs of the statements I made. I found the keenest interest in this country, and the Commercial Club, to whom 1 re ferred inquiries, for further informa tion, will no doubt receive many let ters from those I talked to. "From the time I left Cheyenne I distributed literature, colonist folders, etc., to those on the train and at the depots, all the way to the Atlantic coast. On the train I was kept busy telling about this country, and soon was known as "Spitzenburg" to the passengers. Coming home a party of Seattle boosters got on the train at Salt Lake and we debated the merits of our respective sections all the way home. I think I got the best of the argument, however, in the judgment or the pasengers. Clinching the argu ment as to which was the best apple district, Hood River or the Washington country. I had a telegram from Spo kane announcing 'the winning of the sweepstakes. We also got the Denver and Salt Lake papers giving the par ticulars, and after that I had it all my own way. Following this was the news from Chicago, and before we reached home the result of the Port land show was known. There was no getting away from it. Whether the Seattle boosters were convinced or not the passengers were who heard our The Land Clearer. Ily One of Them. I thought fruit farming was a jest, hugar, honey, and all the rest. Set next to nature, grow the fruit Pull up the dollar by the root. Chorus The Fruit The Galoot The man with the land The Liar Despair And the empty hand. Oh fool ! oh ass !

That in ignorant bliss. I bought what they call Ta Fruit Farm. Like Adam and Eve Did I truly believe that to grow apples would uo me no harm. Chorus Eve Conceive Me raising the fruit, Adam J I damn Oh ! why do you hoot? Powder, team, and tools I bought. Then battlefield 1 sought Waterloo! oh Waterloo! I never thought 1 would meet you. Chorus Fretting, Sweating, Cursing the stumps. Tearing, Swearing, And nursing the bumpH. Months pass by, and then I see, A huge large area, cleared by me. To clear all that fills me with pride I'll measure it, and then decide. Chorus Oak, Croak, Before my hand. Pine, Decline, When I clear my land.
