The first fruit trees. il is stated by

The first fruit trees, it is stated by
Colonel II. E. Dosch commissioner
from Oregon to the Pan-American Ex-
position, were planted in the state in
lS47, and were one-year gratis brought
all the way across the plains in wagon
box by man named Llewelling.
They were planted in the box, "and
were watered faithfully night and morn
ing during the five months of the jour-
ney." The varieties were apples, pears,
peaches and cherries. The apple trees
bore their first fruit in 1853, and that
year and the year after every apple on
them was sold for 81 apiece. A little
later they sold for $40 box OF 45 pounds
and sold quickly at that price. Some OF
the original trees are still living and the
state is now winning prizes for the fin.
est fruit grown on the continent.
The story is an interesting one in its
self, and it has one plain moral, which
is that natural disadvantages for the
growing of fruit in any region need moi
prevent the development of the indus
try in very high degree by patient and
intelligently directed industry. The re-
cord shows that Oregon did not have q
fruit-tree on its soil so years ago, and il
is now among the foremost fruit-growine
states.

OreRon Fruit at Buffalo.

oregon's medal from the Pomological
Association Of America for excellent
fruit has attracted much attention in the
east. As a specimen OF the references
TO it made the press, the following, from
the Charleston Is. C.) News and Cour-
ier, is interesting:
One Of the Buffalo papers notes that
Oregon is displaying in the Horticul-
tural building at the Pan-American Ex-
position, a medal awarded 10 the state
by the Pomologieal Association Of Amer
lea, "ior the highest excellence Of
fruits" the medal being shown with
the exhibits Of apples, peaches, pears,
plums and prunes for which the award
was made. That Oregon should have
won the prize from all the United States
and Canada is, Of course, greatly 10 the
credit Of the fruitgrowers Of the state,
but how very much credit belongs to
them will more fully appear from a
short statement Of the recent and diff
cult beginning Of their nov thriving in
dustry.

A cablegram to the New York World
from Berlin says: Courses Of instruction
for children who stutter have been
started In the various German schools.
In Berlin six specialists have been en-
gagged by the municipal board of educa-
tion to devote IL hours n week to this
work. Ono and half per cent Of tho
children attending tho German schools

Two systems are being tried. Ono
seeks to drill tho children in tho vocal

over whom the municipal authorities
can exercise more control. 1t consists
In treating suffering as q nervous dis

trct the American interests in that

the government will content itself with

The most recent information leads 10
the conclusion that the trouble will be
short lived. and it is not believed in

are liable to suffer. For this reason
and also because no vessel is available
for the purpose no effort will be made
to make any naval demonstration OH

tiers Of Venezuela and Colombia.
