LAMWAY DOES ' FINE ENGRAVING From the Hosier Bulletin When it eomea to beauty and utility combined on can aeareely find the combination better displayed than in any of the man; articlea of handsome ly engraved ailver ware being put oat by W. F. Lara way, of Hood River. And Mr. Laraway hai brought engrav ing down to a fine art In no metro politan jewelry atore can more artistic work be found than he ia doing. Not only doea be engrave ailver ware and ailver ornaments, but the more intri cate and delicate work of engraving rirgs, pina, watches, braceleta, etc., ia also perfectly and handsomely done at hia hands. Indeed, air. Laraway ia an expert, and one who ia in love with hia art There ia a distinctiveness to every piece of engraving that leavea the Lar away atore. No flaws or careless work manship is ever al lowed to leave. Ev erything must be perfect, not only aa a meana of keeping op the well earned reputation of the establishment, but aa a matter of personal pride with Mr. Laraway. He ia a workman who ia thorough and who rejoices in his thor oughness. People are beginning to appreciate Mr. Laraway'a work and he atatea that thia year he haa done more of tbia sort of work than during any previous year of his business in the Apple Valley. "Why," saya Mr. Laraway, "they have come from all around. They have even brought me their ailver and their jewelry which they have purchased in other cities. Yes, we do engraving, and it's real engraving, too." HOSIER. From The Bulletin Mrs. William Johnson ia confined to her bed with a aevere attack of the grip. Misa M. G.

While tbe county court haa never made any ap propriation for the expenses of carry ing out investigationa that might lead to convictlona of temperance lawa vio lators, the new ststute gives tbe eberff a great deal, more power tban be was formerly privileged with snd it will be possible for him to wage an actve bat tle against any illicit sales of liquor. Judge Stanton, Sheriff Johnson and Judge Derby all declare that they will work for a strict enforcement of tbe law. "As far aa my office is concerned," ssys Judge Derby, "I expect to prose cute every case where the evidence warrants it. However, I wish to cor rect a wrong impression that waa made in a recent article in the Portland Jour nal, wbere I was quoted aa saying that it requires very strong evidence to con vict in such cases. Tbe statement at made was erroneous. In fact, it will not be necessary to secure sucb very strong evidence to get a conviction." "I expect to work to the limit of my capacity in securing an enforcement ot the law," aays Sheriff Johnson.

Wednesday and Thursday On Wednesday and Thursday, Jan. 12 and 13, V..L.-S.-U. present "Ibe Jue gernaut," the most collosssl of railroad dramas. Two young men. one the bril liant son of poor parents, the other the dissolute heir of a great railway king, become friende at college. One thinks he haa accidentally killed a drunken rowdy in aavmg the oner's life; they two only know his secret. Both fall in love with tbe same girl, who marries the rich boy only after his chum has withdrawn from tbe race because of bis poverty. Years later one becomes president of his father's old railroad, the other a righteous, fearless district attorney. Both again worship the same eirl. daughter of the old sweetheart of both ; one witn a lamer a deep affection, tbe other because she is her mother a coun terpart. The district attorney bitterly attacks the railroad in the courts. His former chum threatens to expose him as a murderer. And now imagine the girl on a train approaching a bridge which cannot dob sibly stand the weight. Both snen know this. Both are rushing madly bv automobile and motor boat to intercept the train. You see all this. See the girl's sweet face at the window of the flying train, feel the swsying of the automobile as it skids desperately arouna snarp turns, ana tne uounaing of the motor boat slashing through rough waters. Both men and tbe train come crashing into tbe picture atthe same instant too istei For a moment that seems an etern ity, you feel yourself sitting almost under the tottering trestle as tbe enor mous engine, a mass of whirling steel. leaps thundering and quivering into the empty air and falls shrieking to the swirling river. The big coaches crum ple like cardboard before your eyes and pile themselves up on the wreck, their passengers floundering and struggling in the debris. Again you see tbe girl; again, ber faber; again, tbe man. The car of the Juggernaut rolls on. But who are the victims? Come and see this tremen dous spectacle at tbe Gem theatre on Jan. 12 and 13.

Now, one wonders no more. A ride along tbe country roada tbia fall removed any necessity for investiga tion, and explained wby tbe pupil is partial to red applea. Much haa been written of the gloriea of autumn tbe red leavea of tbe creeper tbat haa wound itself round tbe trunk of a tree or baa entwined it self among the raila of a fence; the beautiful acarlet flaming of tbe aaasa fraa leavea; tbe brilliance of tbe swamp and red maples; the golden brown of tbe beech, and tbe bright yel low of the golden rod but little haa been aaid of the many buea of red to be found in an Indiana apple orchard, aa aeen in a recent auto ride through tbe aoutbeastern part of Marion coun ty, lhe much traveled pikes were shunned and the little used roads were sought. Dust generally covers the foliage along the main higbwaya, but along the crossroada tbe treea and shrubbery are bright and green. Even the silent man of the party could not repress bis admiration of what be saw pastures dotted with kine, and orch ards red with applea. Seemingly, nine treea out of ten were bent with loads of red fruit. Some of the apples were dark red Winesapa, a few were Jona thans and others with vsrying shades of red were Rome Beauties, Baldwina, Kings, Spy s, Steel Reds, and many were Ben Davises. Here and there through tbe orcbarda a glimpse ot Grimes Goldena could be caught, but the contrast merely made the other ap ples seem redder. In front of a church parsonage an apple tree had dropped enough friut to cover part of tbe road. And it was bere tbe silent man went skir i isbing, and with tbe aid of tbe cbaufieur found a hatful or two of un named red applea that grew on conse crated ground, and were aa delicious aa nectar. PaBt orchard after orchard the auto sped, and it waa the same entic ing view red applea by tbe tree load, with branches bent almost to the ground. Now, ia it any wonder the lit tle girl alwaya gives her schoolma'am a red apple? When you act out an orchard, alwaya make a chart of tbe arrangement, giv ing a place and number to each tree; then record the numbers, variety and date in a book. If you fail to do thia. you will know how good a forgetter you are wben you try to ren ember where you planted each kind, lhe In formation will be useful in a dozen ways. Jane our word that it ia worth while, and keep the records accurately and completely. To label trees helps this plan and has other advantages. Une of the best ways is to cut heayy xinc into strips about 10 inches long, two inches wide at tbe end and coming to a point at the other. Put these in vinegar for a few hours to corrode them ; when dry you can write on them with ink or with an or dinary indelible lead pencil, and tbe marks will stay on for 20 yeara. Twist the little end oi a tag loosely about a limb, and let it hang down. Put on thia tag the variety name, the number, possibly the date planted, the number of bushels harvested each year, date of blooming, and other useful data. As the limb grows, loosen the loop a little or remove tbe tag to a smaller limb, Ibis helps greatly in the successful handling of an orchard. Ex. A novel plan of advertising north western spples was recently inaugurat ed by Steinhardt & Kelly in New York city. This enterprising firm furnished 1.400 applea of the skookum brand for distribution to the congregation of Grace M. E. church of that city at a service in which the minister preached on "God and Apples." The sermon on spples waa illustrated by moving pic lutes showing spraying, picking and packing operations. The minister said it took faith to grow apples, aa in the beginning they didn t amount to much, and toldlbis hearers that the same care ful cultivation given applea must be given to the soul or man cannot te sound and healthy spiritually. Apple exports for the week ending Saturday, December 25, were 15,719 barrels against 78,542 barrels the same week a year ago.
