Up on the rifle range this forenoon
1S members of Co. G, o. N. G., tried
their skill at target shooting. Some.
how the weather was unfavorable or
the men were not at themselves, for
none of them made their customary
scores. Sargent VIM. Moore carried
off the honors with a score of AZ.
Some of the others made fairly good

Oregon Apples In Demand.

Eastern fruit dealers have represent
stives in the state inquiring after
winter apples for shipment to Chicago
and New York, and are offering from
80 cents to one dollar box for best
grades. Oregon apples stand we'll in
those markets and are classed the
best that are received from any part
of the United states. They are found
to be better keepers and are more
crisp and have better flavor than ap-
Piles raised in warmer climates. The
demand there for Oregon apples is en-
couraging to fruit growers, for 1t is
certain to increase as they become
better known. Atpresent there is but
one drawback to Oregon apples. that
is they are not raised in sufficiently
large quantities. Now they can only
be had in car load lots, but whenever
they are sufficiently plentiful to per-
NIT shipment by the trainload, they
will attract buyers from all over the
east, and will command better prices
than at present because of the better
freight rates that can be had on large
shipments.

The other day Hon. T. T. Geer was
taken through the penitentiary at
Salem by Superintendent Gilbert, and
when he came out friend asked:
''Did you meet many old friends in
there?"
II couldn't see their faces" MIR.
Geer replied. "They all seemed to
have their backs turded toward me-"
"Another delegation turned against
you," suggested the friend.
''But I'm used to that, and came out
smiling rejoined Mr.. Geer.
Probably Mr.. Geer laughed in his
sleeve when he made the remark, and
took unto himself no more regret
when the "cold shoulder" of the con-
victs was turned toward him than when
the Oregon delegation gave him the
"frost." Geer is not worrying very
much nowadays about the Sights
that are offered him. His day will
come later.
