Prnnes a Full Crop al Mosier.

Lee Evans, one OF Mosier's farmers,
was in Hood River last Friday. Mr.
Evans says crops are looking splendid
in Mosier. Lest year, Mr., Evans shipped
two and half cars of Italian prunes
for which he got good price. While
reports are current that the prune crop
in other parts Of the Northwest is dam
aged, Mr., Evans says there will be a
full crop at Mosier. Pruncs do better
there than they do here and they ripen
earlier.
Mr.. Evans believes in the efficacy of
the spray for the Goblin moth. He
sprayed thoroughly last year and saved
% percent Of his crop lie has already
given his trees two sprays. Two years
ago when he was laid up with broken
leg his orchard was neglected. and a
large number OF his apples were wormy.
Mr.. Evans says he has missed the
weekly news letter the Glacier was
accustomed to receive from Mosier,
and has promised to touch up the cor
respondent there. Mosier will be well
represented at the Hood River fruit fair
next fall. Some Of the orchardists will
attempt to carry off few OF the prizes.

CnternllI0rs Raid the Sonnd.

According to a Seattle dispatch in the
Oregonian Of June !, the Puget sound
country is threatened with serious raid
from caterpillars. So serious has it be.
come that the state authorities have
been forced to take action for the ex-
termination of the pests. The fruit
prospects Of that part of the state are
already threatened.
The caterpillars are Of the tent variety
that prey upon the foliage. They ap.
peared simultaneously in Pierce and
King counties upon the fruit and shade
trees. The state horticultural inspector
and his deputies made the first onslaught,
and have had the support Of the fruit
growers in the crusade.
The Park Board of Seattle sent out
men to make the fight against the pest
in the city parks and along the streets.
men armed with pruning forks and
torches are burning the caterpillars on
the trees or cutting them off and destroy
ing them in bonfres burning generally
in both counties.
Ten years ago a similar invasion Of
caterpillars in Whatcom county de-
stroyed the foliage on deciduous tree
and shrub growth, the effect lasting for
years.

viii Hang at The Dalles.

Norman Williams, who has been sen.
fenced To die on July 22 by Judge Brad.
shaw, will be hanged at The DalIes ana
not at the penitentiary, because the
crime of which he was convicted was
committed before June IL, 1908. This
is according to decision of the supreme
court in the Pleasant Armstrong case.
All crimes committed after June II,
punishable by death will result in exc.
eution at the state penitentiary. This
is provided for in the new law dealing
with executions.
The confusion which existed at the
time, the Armstrong case was tried was
settled by the supreme court. The new
law failed to say anything about crimes
committed prior to its passage, conse-
quently 1t was necessary forthe supreme
court to settle it,
Thus it is that Norman Williams,
convicted of murder in the FIRST degree,
will hang in the jailyard at The Dalles
in July, unless he is granted new
trial or an appeal is taken. The date
OF his execution has been set, and prep
arations will he made before long for
his execution.

Speaking of Dairy Commissioner
Wright's boyhood days, which were
spent in Waterloo, the Waterloo Daily
Courier says: 1T was here he conned
his Latin and grappled with the knotty
Mary-Ann problems in algebra and
geometry, and it was here, when yet
boy, while working cut summers on a
nearby farm, that he acquired the am
bition to be something in the world.
While sitting with his head poked in
to the cows side to escape the flag
ellation of the animals energized tail
merry tune that the tiny stream Of
milk played on the shining tin and with
the other to what the animal back of
him was doing he dreamed that some
day he might yet be road supervisor or
school director and escape the fate of
tentiary. He recalls now with smile
how he changed the habits of the
calves from taking their meals tete-a-
tete at their mothers side to that of
drinking from the pail and of the
buntings and sloppings of milk entail
ed in perfecting the change" And it
isn't much wonder, is it, that a man
who got his education both in Water
loo and on Blackhawk county dairy
farm should turn out to be SO much of
a success as state dairy commits

Minister 1ayashi Discusses the Japan
ese Reply.
London, Jan. 15.-Minister Hayashi
has received the text of the Japanese
reply to Russia's last note.
1t does not contain an ultimatum,
but reiterates Japans original de-
mands, with what Baron Hayashi
terms "a modification upon a minor
point"
The questions of Chinese sovereign
ty in Manchuria and Japan's sphere OF
influence in Korea are insisted upon.
Minister Hayashi said to a repre-
sentative of the Associated Press:
so far as can see the relations OF
the two powers regarding the dispute
practically are unchanged. I have no
indication of the reception this note
is likely to meet at the hands of the
Russian government, but l expect the
negotiations will continue for several
weeks"
A private dispatch from Toxic, re-
ceived at one of the embassies from
source considered quite reliable, says
that in spite of all reports to the con-
trary the Japanese troops will not be
thoroughly prepared to start for Korea,
on the scale desired in the event OF
such step being considered neces-
sary, before the first week in Febru-
ary. This is considered significant in
'conjunction with Baron Hayashi's es-
innate that the negotiations are likely
to extend for three weeks longer and
supplying an additional reason for
Japan answering in pacific terms 1t is
also pointed out that in three weeks
Japans new cruisers will be prac-
tically out of all danger.
Several of the diplomats here do not
share the British foreign Office COM
plete pessimism, believing Russia will
give in at the last moment.
