indication of what the new generation
of orchards in Mason County will soon
be producing in abundance. Mr..
Kendrick is deyoting considerable at
tention and study to orcharding and
has a useful fund of information gath
cred from his experience. In additio n
to the samples brought in, the JOUR-
NAILS window has samples of the Ed
itor's own fruit that are very hard to
beat. AS usual years subscription
of this paper will be given to anyone
who can make better showing of fall
apples. Our Rolfe apples are as fine
and smo 9th as usual, and are between
ten and thirteen inches in circumfer-
ence. We have several fine varieties
and would be glad to furnish gratis to
those who have trees that could be inn
proved. It is matter of regret that
Mason County so far has been lacking
in the energy required to have coun-
ty fair and exhibit the many splendid
products of all kinds which are pro-
duced as well here as elsewhere How
ever. we hope that a start will be made
by another season, and that the ma
son County Annual Fair will become
permanent institution. To this end
the co-operatiou.Sf the producers gen
orally is essential.

Green being in Seattle. It is alleged
that the saloon at Matlock had been
selling candy and notions and throw
