The U. b. Aid in Verse.

Twas beautiful day in November,
The sun shown bright In the sky,
The clouds banked above the horizon,
Look'd like warships sailing by.
Friday, ninth, ten o'clock 10 the morning,
There started from Bartmess' store
small party of ii ood River ladies,
| Fourteen In number, no more.
Well filled baskets. with work and luncheon
. Were stor'd away In the hack;
For an outing ofproft and pleasure
Nota thing seemed 10 lack.
whats upP" asked gentleman passing;
"A her party, or III treat"
only women, you know, are curious"
The answer caused his retreat.
The U. B. aid, with some friends invited,
Were bound for the Wood worth farm,
Is there aught to the heart more enchanting
Than fields which e'er lends charm?
AS we wound up the hill to the southwark.
Expressions like these were heard:
tain"
"Just listen to that sweet bird"
"The Columbia looks like a mirror,
Rejecting bright autumn tints;"
"Theres the boat, see the ripple Its stirring
A1laSh with the suns warm glints"
Arrlv'd too soon at our destination,
All received welcome kind;
soon at work we were plying our needles
Our tongues were not idle, mind.
Creations Of texture and gay fabric
Were modelled into form,
Either beautiful, useful or pretty,
Dainty, substantial and warm.
At one o'clock came the call to dinner.
The spread would have made kings smile
With relish we lessend its bounty
Laughing ana chatting the while.
Some said that II thirteen were the number
At table they would not sit,
While others declared 1t "lucky"
Number, for they had proven 1t.
The remainder of the day passed quickly:
You Will find at the bazaar
What our fingers fashioned and finished
without contest or jar.
And not word OF gossip or slander,
We ventured to tell man,
But he scofied and hoOted the statement
And said, "in the blood 1t ran"
Each one voted thanks to the hostess
For the pleasure OF the day.
We returned us the shadows of evening
Were creeping DER hills away.
Those present, Mrs. Watt, earns and Stewart
Henry. Baldwin, Nickelsen,
Shaffer Cook, Bartmess, Willis and Erwin.

Poultry Notes.

Hood River, Ore, Nov. 13, l900.-
Editor Glacier: 1t is funny the way some
people look at things. Let some fake
peddler start through the country with
a pack OF cheap jewelry, ,shoddy clothing,
notions, etc, and he will sell at almost
every farm house from one to two dol
lars worth OF his stuff sometimes more
any OF which might be purchased Of our
stores in town for less money. The
same amount of money invested in a
clutch Of pure bred eggs, instead Of being
swindle as in the case of the peddler,
would be the beginning OF what would
ultimately be one OF the most profitable
branches Of the farms productions /;
yet | have been trying for the past two
or three weeks to induce q few OF our
good ranchmen TO agree to blow them
selves to this extent for their own good.
| have no ak to grind. There is nothing
In 1t for me, except the satisfaction OF
seeing high class poultry replace the
poor, scaly legged, mcasly, scrub, dung
hill fowls which are now too prevalent
in the valley. | have secured the prom
ice OF some half dozen to go into any
thing that will better the condition Of
onr poultry status. Some few OF our
people are doing something already,
having pure bred focks, and these take
the greater interest in the matter; but
many OF our farmers have poor poultry
houses or none at all. These will teil
you that "poultry doesn't pay; the feed
costs more than the poultry and eggs
bring in" A man cannot expect To
take lot of half starved scrubs and for
a house nail lot OF old rough boards and
an equal number of big cracks upon the
rainy side Of pole slanted over towards
the Philippines, and let the hens "root
hog or die,' and come in every night
with basketful Of eggs. Good, clean,
comfortable, well lighted quarters
good, clean, healthful food; good, clean,
fresh drinking water must be judiciously
provided and supplied to them at all times
II he would expect generous return for
his money and trouble. And, while /
have had fair success with scrubs, they
cannot compare in any particular with
pure bred fowls, and the best is none
700 good for resident of Hood River, 80
The scrub most "moye on"
We need poultry association. They
have them in other places not nearly SO
Iavorably situated as we are. We have
our fruit growers association, why not
have one to look after the interests of
)ur poultry products. Some one of our |
'anchers who is interested in poultry
should call q meeting and get as many
y our people together some Saturday
liternoon as possible and organize
poultry association. Then there would
% some basis for systematic, harmonious
Iction. Can we hear from some of your
eaders on this topic? d. N. BYERLEE.

Portland is moving for big exposi-
tion in 1902. immigration is needed in
Oregon and the whole Northwest, and
nothing would advertise our resources
to better advantage than q trans-Pacific
exposition, conducted in manner to
bring visitors from all parts Of the world.
Portland, the chief city Of the North
west, is the place to hold such an expo
sition. II the citizens of Portland and
OF Oregon take hold Of the matter in the
right spirit, the state legislature and
congress may be expected to do the rest
towards raising the money to make a
big exposition q success.

A good many voters at the late elec
tion marked their ballots on the right
hand side with two x marks, one oppo.
site the name Of William Mckinley, the
other opposite Theodore Roosevelt, OF
the same mark was made before the
names Of William J. Bryan and Adlai
Stevenson. These ballots were gen.
orally counted when the election board
could readily see the choice Of the voter,
but they were counted for only two Of
the presidential electors, the two names
on line with the X. This may ac-
count for much Of the discrepancy in
the vote for presidential electors on the
same ticket.

Belgian Hares.

Belgian hares, haunts and habits. was
the chief subject Of discussion before the
the board of supervisors this morning
and the marvellous fecundity Of the rab.
bits and their destructive qualities where
gardens and orchards are concerned.
The Belgian hare fad struck southern
California about year ago, Los Angeles,
as usual, being the chef storm center.
six months ago the furor was at its
height, fancy imported hares being
bought and sold in Los Angeles and Pas
adena for as high as 81 800 each. Soon
whole avenues were lined with signs an
nouncing Belgian hares for sale at prices
from $40 up. Then it dawned upon the
rabbit fanciers that Belgian hares were
great multipliers and that the market
for rabbit meat was not unlimited.
Then came the crash of a bursted
boom, and the whole business fell to the
ground with dull sickening thud. Now
you can buy Belgian hares in Los Angeles
for any old price, and If you don't want
to pay anything you can have the hares
for nothing. 1t is the same here in San
Diego. Already many breeders are pre-
pairing to turn their rabbits loose on the
country, as they cannot sell them at any
price and the fear has become general
that II this is done the country will be
literally overrun within five years. 1t
appears that the favorite food OF the
Belgian hare is the tender bark of Young
iruit trees, and If the hares are not ex.
terminated the fruit trees will be.-San

proved to be the approach of tropical
flood. heralded by drops as large as
marbles. 1t churned the still waters
into phosphorescent foam which rem
dered the darkness only more oppres-

to>ask why the place had such name,
and as no reason could be given, new
cbmers to the neighborhood began to
want name that meant something.
This insistence grew so strong that the
old residents began to look around for
a reason for the name of their place,
and at last they found huge bowlder
near by which they said was what had
suggested the name. But the bowlder
was gray instead of red and the pro-
gressionists insisted that that would
not do. At last, the old-timers hit
upon new plan, and procuring bar
rel of red paint, they painted the big
rock red. Red Rock, indeed, it was
now, and not only was all opposition
to the name overcome, but the painting
of the rock every spring has become
an annual festival, and the people cele-
brate it with big picnic and general
celebra ton. 1t was a new idea to me.
