We are sorry to state that Miss Anna Benedict is on the sick list. Miss Josephine Donegan continues to conduct our school in a most admirable manner. Miss Maud O’Brien is making a success of school teaching on Thompson Creek. Miss Ida Halleck has been ailing since her return from Portland. R. Benedict has returned from Salem where he has been attending the pioneer reunion. R. D. Maplesden, of Medford, who , represents the Oregon Nursery Co., of i Salem, one of the famous big nurseries i of Oregon, was in Jacksonville Wed ties- day on business connected w ith the deliv ery of his orders for trees. Mr. Maples- den stated that his sales had l>ecn more than one-third larger than last year, yet that was a tianner year in his experience as a fruit tree dealer, and that he had every reason to be confident that his sales for next year would show equally as great gains as the farmers were taking a much greater interest in the fruit busi ness. Even out in Klamath and Lake counties, which have been supposed to lie a cattlemeu’s country, the ranchers arc planting fruit trees, some of them quite extensively as is proven by the many big orders he took in that section. His sales in Siskiyou and other Northern California counties has also lieen very large and at the rate trees are lieiug planted in that section it will soon be one of the great fruit districts of the Coast.

Hanson has retu?ned to Jackson ville. Manager E. H. Shepard, of the Hood River Fruit Growers Union, has intro duced a field or orchard box among the orchardists of Hood River that is meeting with approval by those who have used this form of a box. The orchard box is constructed to hold a box of fruit loosely placed in. The dimensions of the box are 15x20 inches, 10 inches deep. At each end there are hand holds, making the boxes much more convenient to handle. A cleat two inches wide and one inch deep is placed at the top of the box at each end. This assures a firm rest for the boxes as they are placed one above another in the wagon. Thus they are not apt to slip one into another and crush the fruit. Manager Shepard says he secured 50 of these boxes for his orchard, and after his orchard foreman hail used them one day, he remarked that it would lie im possible to do without them. Mr. Shep ard speaks in high praise of these orch ard boxes, and has one on display at the office of the Applegrowers’ union, where he explains the merits of the box to all who come in. To make an orchard outfit complete, Mr. Shepard advises the fruit men to buy a packing table, an outfit of orchard boxes, a nailing machine, and he is now arranging to have an orchard stand con structed for use in setting the orchard boxes on while the apples are being picked. The use of the orchard boxes, says Mr. Shepard, more than saves tlieir cost in one season by economizing time, no soil ing of the packing boxes, no bruising of fruit, etc.—Hood River Glacier.
