Water taken from deep well at Baxley

In other words, it may be acceptable to

are likely to be nearly all in by the end
OF the week. Some dealers here have
no idea that first-class peaches will sell
for less than rs cents per box of 20
pounds, while others are hopeful that
they may be able to sell them for 80
centsa box Everyone will have to
take chances as to the best time 10 buy,
but it win not do to delay long in secur-
ing supply, as the peaches will come
in a rush, and the rush will not last
long.
The good peaches raised in this region
may keep coming in day or two after
shipments from Northern Oregon cease,
but this supply is not large and will
soon be exhausted. Everyone will have
to use the best judgment possible, and
will feel better satisfied ii full supply
is secured, even at a rather high price,
than if by waiting for lower price the
opportunity to secure enough is lost.

Gather 1sO Quarts Of HucLleberries

+. o. Brace and family returned
Wednesday from weeks trip to Camp
Overall and Lost Lake. They brought
with them l2O quarts of fine
huckleberries.
Mr.. Brace says they took a cayuse to
the top OF Huckleberry mountain, for
the purpose OF packing out the fruit.
When very nearly to the top, the cayuse
slipped and rolled head overheels 100
feet down the steep bank. "Peck" FL.
lison thought his horse was killed, but
she rallied from the shock and returned
to the summit.
On their return, when at the inlet of
the lake, the horse slipped again, falling
this time into the water. Fortunately,
the bedding happened TO be ON the un-
derside of the horse and the berries on
the other side. After getting started
again the distance to Camp Overall was
covered In three hours.
Mr., Brace, on his return, found his
family COW had strayed. After inserting
"lost" ad in the Glacier, il WASN'T five
minutes until Mr.. Brace phoned the of.
fee that Mailcarrier Kinsey had found
the cow near Roy Smiths.

The correspondent for the Pine Grove
neighborhood calls attention to crying
need for the city OF Hood River, and
that ia place where the farmers can
tie their horses when they come 10
to town to do their weeks trading. The
remarks are timely and to the point.
Most towns the size of Hood River erect
covered sheds for the accommodation OF
the iarmers. A vacant lot for this pur-
pose is hard to find, but the sooner one
Is found and hitching posts and sheds
put up the stronger will be the bond Of
community interest between the mer'
chants and the farmers who must dc
their trading here.

From the Oregon Tinberman.

The Menominee Lumber company,
Menominee, now has about 5000, 900
feet of mill assorted pine and fiji stock
on hand. 1t reports that during the
latter part of July orders came in more
freely and that prices remained about
the same as have prevailed for some
time. The company completed its log
drive July 49, 1t has about 1,000, 900
feet of logs in its boom, and $500, 900
at the mouth of the White Salmon river.
Cameron Bros. think that they have
enough on hand to keep them running
easily until December |. Most of their
shipments are going East.
The Oregon Lumber Co., of Hood
River, is putting in additional piling at
the mouth of Hood River so as to facil-
itate the floating of logs to its mill. By
strengthening its boom it hopes to avert
a mishap like that which occurred last
March at which time quite number OF
logs got away The company is build
ing q new planning mill at Hood River,
48xl00, which it hopes to have open by
October |. The company is shipping
considerable amount of ties, timber
and dimension stuff into Utah, Nebras-
ka, and Wyoming. 1t has no complaint
to make of shortage OF orders.
Davenport Bros of Hood River are
installing two boilers in their new mill
at Green Point, which are being set in
cement. They have recently built a
dam 400 feet long, overaowing 1875
acres to a depth of 10 feet, which will
give them more room for their logs
They are now cutting $4,000 feet per
day at their Parkert,,w ,wn mill and when
their new mill at Green Point is operat.
ing in September il will cut 100000 feet
per day Mr.. Davenport cites an
instance to illustrate the expedition
which Davenport Bros. can make in
handling orders. He says that one
order was received in the morl ing at
which time the tree was growing in the
woods. Before night the tree had been
cut down, hauled to the mill, sawed
into lumber, fumed to the planning mill
there planed and cut up and delivered
at its destination, all in the course oi
one day. The company reports strong
demand for cord wood Last year they

SURVEYORS Off
FOR GLENWOOD

J. F. Blakemore and party of min e
surveyors from SEATTLE reg stored Tues :
day at the Mount Hood hotel, and the
next morning scared hacks from the
Transfer and Livery ca. to carry them
selves and 1900 pounds of baggage to
Glenwood. Here they are to take pack
horses for trip into the interior.
Speculation is rife rs to who is send
ing out this party OF surveyors, and What
they are to do in the mountains Of Klick-
itat county. The fact that the men are
from Seattle, leads some to believe that
they are Northern Paci &c surveyors

Umbrellas, 81 up" says a sign in
Fulton street store window, accord
ing to the Brooklyn Eagle.
How much DOWN." asked a face
tious customer yesterday.
"All cash down." the salesman an
swered innocently; "this is not a credit
house."
But I mean how much do / have
to put up for an umbrella put DOWN."
The salesman looked seriously per-
picked. I'VE have them for 81 up, -
said he.
II know" replied the customer; ''but
1 don't want to buy one up. l want
to buy it down. I can put it up for
myself"
"Oh" said the salesman. with al
most human intelligence beaming in
his eye. You are speaking of the
umbrella, while I am speaking of the
price,
"Ah, I see," the customer respond
ed; ''it is the price that it 81 up?"
Exactly"
Then it isn't 81 down as you said
before?"
"Um-er-maybe I'd better call the
proprietor" And the salesman hur-
ried away to tell his employer there
was a crazy man at the umbrella
counter.
SO, you see, even store people have
their ups and downs.
