A Great Frnit District.

A representative of the East Oregon
ian spent several days here couple OF
weeks ago and We clip the following ex-
tracts from what he has to say Of Hood
River valley;
"Hood River Strawberries have
achieved a well-deserved reputation not
only for their size and flavor, but also
for their keeping and shipping qualities
They are shipped as far as Winnipeg
and Kansas City where they arrive in
fine condition.
"The Western valley OF Hood river
is largely given over to the culture of
strawberries, being divided into five, TO-
and 20-acre farms. AS high as $500 per
acre is realized from the strawberry
crop.
"The Eastern side Of the valley has
only recently had irrigation bitches
completed 1t is largely devoted to or
chards. The Hood River apple bids
fair to become as famous as the Hood
River strawberry. About 200 car loads
of apples will be shipped from Hood
River this year.
"The soil, climate and other conditions
are peculiarly favorable to fruit raising,
the long season giving them the time to
mature. The warm days serve to ripen
them, while the cool nights retard their
too hasty growth and render them firm
and solid.
"The soil is deep clay loan impreg-
mated with iron. The iron gives the ap-
pie a rich color-the same varieties put
ting on more vivid colors here than
elsewhere.
*x*
zone OF the finest orchards visited
was that Of Sears & Porter, about five
miles up the valley from the town Of
Hood River.
'..It was purchased in 1892 for 81 900,
1t consists Of l52 acres. Two years ago
an offer OF $3.50 an acre was refused for
it,. The trees are in splendid condition
and this years crop will sell for not less
than $4,000 There are at present some
what over 5000 trees set out. The ap-
pie trees are sprayed at least once each
three weeks between blossoming and
maturity Of the fruit They are also
sprayed twice during the winter.
%x*
''To give an idea of the yield, Mr.
Sears says when the trees are in full
bearing they will yield l,200 or more
bushels to the acre, for which he gets
81 bushel.
1.-TWO and three-quarters acres of
Ben Davis yielded l,4l4 boxes of apples
two years ago, when the trees were four
and five years old. Last year the same
two and three-quarter yielded 800
boxes of apples, for which he received
from 81 to $l25 box. This year they
will yield at least $500 boxes.
"It is the coming industry. Already
buyers have come to Hood River from
distant points. Last year representa-
tive of Paris house came in search of
10 carloads of Newtown Pippins, as yell
low apples are in greater demand in
France than red-cheeked ones. The
Hood River fruit industry has great
future before il -

WHERE ARRoWHEADs GROW.
Professors Argument Not BASED on
Sound Principles.


When vacation comes. Dr. Branner,
the head of the Stanford geological de-
partment, hies himself far away from
all things pedagogical to the remote
Businesses of the mountains, and there
studies the formation of the rocks and
reads the life history of earth in the
deposits of the ages.
Last vacation he was in the Sierras.
He had as his guide man Indigenous
TO the soil who had never been 20 miles
from the nome of his childhood. He
looked with much amusement and
scorn upon DR.. Branncr and his assist
ants, and saw nothing in the work
that was of interest. To him the stu
dents seemed more like good men gone
daft.
One day Mr.. Branner located an old
Indian burying ground. In digging he
came upon some choice arrow heads.
Thinking to test his guides geological
as well as his chronological knowledge,
the doctor said:
Elijah. do you know how these ar
row heads came here?"
"Growed thar" said the native. with
great positiveness.
Nonsense, II you were to take an
arrow head and put it on your table
and leave 1t there for years time, do
you think 1t would grow"
"Tain't no nonsense, nuther," said
Elijah. 'If you was to take a potato
and put it on your table. and leave it
there fur year, do you think it would
grow?"-San Francisco Wave.

Baker City, Nov. 26.-Two boys,
the sons of Charles Newton of this
city, had thrilling experience with
a lion near this city, Saturday.
They were out hunting rabbits
when they came up with the lion.
They were on horseback and armed
with a shotgun. The Oldest boy, a
lad of 16 years, fred at the animal
striking it with a. full charge of
shot in the head. The lion became
enraged and attacked the boys on
the horse. 1t caught the oldest boy
by the leg and dragged him from
the horse. A desperate encounter
ensued between the boy and the
lion. The boy dubbed his gun and
beat the lion over the head until he
killed it. The gun stock WAS de-
molished. but victory was with the
plucky lad.
The two boys brought the dead
lion to town. There was another
lion near by, presumably the mate
of the one killed, although it did
not offer to join the fray. The gun
was useless and the boys did not try
to capture the second one.
Young Newton suffered a severe
injury to his right leg, where the
lion tore ihe flesh with it's claws.
