Professor ]. B. Horner, registrar o.
the state agricultural college, lectured
Tuesday evening, in the U. B. church
on the subject of Robert Burns" The
church was comfortably filed, and the
speaker held the close attention of his
audience throughout his address. The
lecture was the second in a series of free
lectures given to the YNople Of Hood
River under the auspices of the Broth.
erhood of Andrew and Philip.
Professor Horner is great admirer oil
Scotland's peasant poet, and his talk Of
an hour and q quarter on the spirit oi
Burns literary productions contained
many good ideas for serious considera-
ton. "Bnrns" said Professor Horner,
twas the most nearly inspired ofall the
poets" Even the lowly and common
things of nature became ennobled and
sublime when seen by the mind OF the
man whose inspirations appealed to the
business and bosoms OF men. Burns was
prominently the poet of the common
people, and as such he sought to estab-
lish the eternal principle Of the univers-
al fatherhood of God and the common
brotherhood of men, for mans man
for a. that"
At the close Of the lecture the profes.
sor announced that G. G. Roberts had
consented to recite production OF Burns
in the true Caledonian dialect. Mr..
Roberts replied with rendition Of the
famous Tam 0'Shanter." The au-
dience wanted the true brogue and no
one doubted that they got it.

from 800 to 1,400 bushels to the acre.
The supply of fruit is not confined sim
ply to the above products. Cherries and
other fruits thrive. Vegetables grow so
large in this valley that / dare not tell
their normal size for fear that some pop
ulistic farmer will deny the allegation
and the alligator. Think of potatoes in
Oregon from AZ to ~ pounds each;
squashes from 200 to 220 pounds each;
watermelons 65 pounds, and apples from
10 to Is inches around, weighing l y to
2 pounds each. These have been ex-
hibited at The Dalles fair. E. Locke of
Hood River has received for several
years past an average of $500 per acre
for his strawberries, 5000 an acre from
cherries, 5000 an acre from peaches, $500
an acre from pears, and has raised 30,-
600 pounds of prunes to the acre. Joe
Morton, three miles below Hood River,
sold 81 bushels of apples from a single
tree. They brought 20 cents bushel,
or $3.50. Counting 80 trees to the acre
this would be 1881 an acre for one
years crop. ]. ]. Luckey of Hood
River gathered 26,000 pounds of cherries
to the acre, which netted him ~ cents
pound, or 81 $3.50 an acre clear on one
seasons crop. N. G. Evans of the same
neighborhood netted 5000 an acre on
strawberries. Hood River took 16 med
ais on fruit at the Chicago exposition,
including one on strawberries and on
apples, which leads one to remark chow
we apples do SWIM" But why elabo-
rate the the individual results and
profits? They are known to all men

restaurants and hotels. l am Informed
that considerable land is still obtainable
in the valley and prices are moderate
and within the reach of all. With the
weight of 60 years on my shoulders am
even now tempted TO throw aside the
dull troublesome cares of a professional
life and engage in pursuit which adds
not alone to ones lease of life but adds
boyancy to ones physical makeup, and

as wonderful fruit-proudcing section,
but it has not been until the past few
years that its merits as an apple and
strawberry producer Of unequaled flavor
has received due recognition from the
outside world. Now, the Hood River

ties stand easily at the head of the list.
arrived at this hotel on Sunday and
it seemed to me that everybody was dis
cussing the merits of this and that spe-
cies of apple, and the net amount placed
in the bank here to the credit of this and
that horticulturist. In a glass case in
the hotel l noticed dozen fine specl-
mems Of the apples grown in the valley,
and they were beauties in size, color and
flavor. Some gentlemen just from
South Africa spoke of the native appre-
citation for the Hood River apples. They
stand shipment anywhere and they
bring the highest prices obtainable for
apples anywhere. As indicating what
can be done here by intelligent, indus
trious husbandry, l may mention that
the firm of Sears 4 Porter made 5000
this year net out of the product of IL
acres planted to apples. This, Of course,
is more then an average showing, but it
indicates the possibilities of fruit cul-
ture in Hood River valley. The valley
has shipped 600 tons of strawberries to
the markets OF this continent for the
year 1901. For delicacy Of flavor, size,
firmness and ripe, rich red coloring, they
stand at the top notch of strawberry
production. II one eats strawberries and
does not get the Hood River kind they
are missing an epicurean refreshment,
in which the palate may be tickled but
not satisfied. / only read a few days
since an item in the Oregonian of Port
land, Oregon, which indicates that even
the average clerk is dropping his voca-
ton and becoming interested in the til
lage OF the soil. A well-known ex-postal
clerk of that city sent to his former as
sociates a number of boxes OF Hood
River apples with the gratuitous informa-
ton that raising apples was much more
profitable than serving Uncle Sam in
the postal service. By the bye, have
been informed that Sears & Porter have
been here only seven years. They are
Eastern men, but enraptured with this
country and its possibilities.
Strawberries in Hood River yield from
5000 to 5000 pounds to the acre, and
apples from 10000 to 10000 pounds, ol
