The Impending Boom.

The editor Of the Roseburg Herald
spent a few days this week in Salem
and says it demonstrated to him the
fact that Oregon's capital city has
within the past two years taken a
great step in material progress ana
advancement. He says that MS
visit to Salem plainly convinced him
that the boom is abroad in the land
of the webfoot, and that the enter
prising citizens Of the capital are
doing their utmost to make it well
come. "The Willamette valley is
receiving large immigration, new
industries are being established, "
saws he. "and her citizens are COR
fident of possessing the best country
on earth. But the wonderful re-
sources of the Willamette are
by the Umpqua, and our
citizens should vie with our neigh
bors of your section in a generous
spirit of rivalry and progress, recog-
nizing that the interestsare identical
as one great common wealth"

Premiums on Fruit.

In talking with different ones of
cur fruit growers, the CAPITAL
JOURNAL finds there is considerable
complaint because our board Of ag-
Eieulture does not offer better in
ducements at the State fair for dis
plays and specimens of the differ
pnt fruits. Surely so important an
interest as that Of fruit growing
BlsOuld receive proper recognition
before this board. All efforts should
be made looking to complete dis
play in this line. When Oregon
wants to boast of any one thing
sbOve all her other grand advantages
and resources it surely is over fruit,
than which no country under the
gun can excel, if equal her. We are
confident the board will give this
question the attention it justly de-
serves.

Hops Next Year.

Already an unsual activity is eX-
hibited among the hop growers and
the indication now is that next sea-
sons ouput in the valley will be
largely increased over this. The
Polk and Marion county ranches are
being put in shape for the coming
season. Buyers tell us the valley
hops this years were far superior to
uose of previous seasons. Their
excellence is due to the fact that the
fields received better cultivation
than heretofore.

Sunshine.

There is no better medicine, no great
er purifier, no better friend to gooo
health, cleanliness and long life than
sunshine. There is an old Spanish
proverb which says: "Where the sun
does not enter the doctor must" and
the truth condensed to that statemen,
is a whole lecture on the health of the
home. Sunshine costs nothing, is re-
freshing, invigorating, life-giving tn
both sick and well. People have
somehow got the idea that nothing is
valuable which does not cost some:
thing, and are too likely to value all
blessings by the money value they rep
resent.
