The city's heat grows sitting


In fev'rish dreams 1 stray,
Recalling faroff June times,
The locust shade at noontimes,
And sSortive breezes trifiing
With blossoms in their play,
And bees the honey rifling
From blossoms all the day.
Once more I lie and listen
To natures music sweet;
Once more my old companions
OF woods and fields I meet.
l hear their myriad voices,
But clear above them all
And warmest in it's welcome
Is bobwhite's CHEEKY call.
And "Bobwhite!'' is his greeting,
AS in the olden time,
When 1 turned the stubble over,
When I raked the hay and clover.
In the summers all too fleeting-
In summers fiow'ry prime,
While his song he kept repeating,
Which now inspires my rhyme
Which oft aroused the brute inbred,
And with a sportsman's glow
I'd sight the handle of my rake,
And vicious aim upon him take
And wish it were a gun instead,
To fire and lay him low,
Just to lift the feathers from his head,
My sportive skill to show.
All, the thought of 'willful murder
Brands with shame my fev'red brow!
I would pay you WELL dear Robert,
Could l hear your music now.
Your love call to your list'nng mate,
Brooding in her secret nest,
Would echo loud the fond heart throbS
For the one | love the best
And bring again those summer days
And glorious golden hours
When. boy and girl. we sought your
haunts,
Together pluclling flowers,
And tiptoe on an ancient stump
In the tall wheat hid from view,
You loudly call "B0bwhite!" to us,
Which I whistled back to you.
All, my heart is sick with longing
Vainly longing for your tune
For the varied scenes of childhood.
For the meadow, dale and wildwood
And the thousand charms belonging
TO the merry month of June!
All, the mem ries that come thronging
With thoughts Of youths bright June!

One anomalous feature of the car
shortage was the fact that while nc
cars were available in Oregon, prod

Matter of Infested Fruit Trees
Considered and Action
Taken to Fight the
Pests

The Greater Salem Commercial
Club held a meeting at the city hall
last night, and disposed of several i'm
Dortant matters awaiting action.
James M. Kyle introduced a resolu.
ton instructing the secretary to CORE
spond with the Oregon City Transpor
tation Company, requesting the lattea
to erect an arc light at the wharves
on Trade street, as the vicinity is not
lighted sufficiently to enable the pub
le to go to and from the boats with
safety. The matter was discussed at
length, and agreed to by unanimous
vote.
A. w. Prescott stated that the fruit
and ornamental trees OF Salem were
badly infested with fruit pests, me
naclng the safety OF the orchards in
the surrounding country. He urged co,
operation with horticultural Commits
sloner Park, and introduced the fol
lowing resolution, for the purpose Of
showing the clubs position on ths
matter:
Whereas, The fruit growing indus
try is one Of the most valuable re-
sources Of this portion of the state
bringing to our community thousands
Of dollars every year and
Whereas, The future development
Of that industry is seriously en-
dangered by the presence OF fruit
pests which can be eradicated by
proper spraying, and
Whereas, The laws of the state
make It the duty of owners Of fruit
trees to spray them often enough to
destroy pests. therefore be 1t
Resolved, BY the Greater Salem
Commercial Club that It respectfully
calls the attention of the public to the
Importance of taking immediate steps
70 protect the fruit trees of Salem
and vicinity, and respectfully call up
on the horticultural commissioner TO
proceed to enforce the laws relative
to spraying of infested trees"
The resolution was adopted.
II. d. Patton moved, in lieu Of the
$1,000 heretofore subscribed by the
merchants Of Salem as a Greater Sa-
lem Stake at the Oregon State Fair
that If any deficit occurs in the $4,000
Greater Salem Stake at the Oregon
State Fair Of 1904, after the payment
of all entries in said race, the Greater
Salem Commercial Club guarantee the
payment OF onehalf. This was agreed
TO, and Secretary Graham was in
stUcted 70 appear before the State

and convey the decision of the club
