NW HERE is the funny

company and every day, whether
it was Sunday or not, the little
girl, 4 years old, asked this
question. It happened to be
Sunday, and the "funny paper

She was much delighted with
the boys escapade. Suddenly
she thought Of something, for
she put the paper down anu
fguratively, put on her little
thinking cap. After five min
utes, more or less, she asked,
'tAllie, where do you keep that
pink dress you wore day before
yesterday,-that one with the
white sleeves and the rufdes?'
I was reading and paid little
attention to what she was say
ing, and replied, eyes. Guess
it's on my bed or maybe in the
closet. I don't know. Go way
and let me read.' Off she
trotted, and soon I heard her
footsteps coming down stairs.
There was a noise, a crash, and
a scream. I ran to the stairs to
see what could be the matter.
There lay the remains Of my
pink dress, screaming for all it
was worth. The screaming ap-
paratus soon resolved itself into

for the first time I viewed the
sights Of a country road from
an automobiles s standpoint;
the humorous side appealed to
me as never before. We were
riding down a small declivity,
when there came into view four
old women driving, half a mile
away.
AS we drew nearer we saw
that they were greatly agitated;
evidently they feared this
strange vehicle might brighten
their horse. They all aighted;
two stood in front Of the horse;
the others, one on either side,
firmly grasped him by the bit.
The four then seemed to think
that they might be run over, so
three of them retreated to the
rear of the buggy. The fourth,
who seemed to have a little
more presence of mind than the
others, resumed her seat in the
buggy; putting her hands well
Coward on the reins, she
braced her feet; the others, tax
ing courage from her actions,
assumed each to herself a por-

Hoole, Thursday for bleeding Kansas" !"
Mr.. Hoole handed in his bunch of Bar
rett news Wednesday, and looking sadly
at the devil remarked, "Mephistopheles,
| leave you tomorrow. "Why thus,
father of Barrett?" replied the devil,
"who will do the Barrett stunt in your
absence?" Barrett will languish until
we get our Hoole-a-gain," and the
prophet of Bartlett shied the shooting
stick at the devil as he lodged behind
the galley rack. Mr.. Hoole did not know
when he would return, II at all, as he
was going on an important business
mission, the result Of which was as
difficult to foresee as the future OF Bar
rett. The only consolation the Glacier
has is, that il our correspondent locates
in the state of blizzards and bushwhack-
ers he cannot use our Barrett thunder
in that country. He has gone on record
here hard and fast. He has said "Bar-
rett against the worldp and that last
word includes the best part OF Kansas
at least. We do not believe Brother
Hoole can procure divorce from Barrett
anyway, certainly not on the grounds
of "failure to provide" because we have
abundant testimony that the neighbors
saw that he did not grow hungry.
Great is Barrett and she will surely
have her Hoole.a-gain.

w, A Laidaw has an article in the
May number Of the Chamber Of Com-
merce Bulletin in which he gives some
very interesting statistics concerning
the results OF irrigation in the United
States. Among other things he says;>
On the authority of the United States
census for 1890, the important state
ment is made that there were hardly
more than 5000, 900 acres Of land in the
country which had felt the transform
ing touch of irrigation. OF these, lit
tie more than 100000 acres were in
California, while Colorado included
800, 600 acres. The total value Of these
lands were placed at 1926, $4,000, aver
aging $S3.2S per acre. The irrigated
lands OF Utah were valued at $S4.25 per
acre, while those Of the Golden State
averaged $3.50 per acre. The aggregate
cost of the entire irrigated area reached
the sum Of $77 100000, and the net
profit of the farmers and owners of the
irrigating bitches was $2l9,370, 900.
This enormous cost was due to an ex-
tensive system of pipes under ground,
tending toward great economy Of wa
ter usage and the prevention OF loss by
seepage. In some Of the fruitgrowing
districts OF California water rights
cost as much as $500 per acre, though
the average cost was $50. 20 per acre
Here in Hood River we can give Mr..
Laidfaw several points to the good and
discount him. Our water rights are ac-
quired at o cost Of $50 an inch, requiring
not more than an inch to an acre Our net
receipts run from 500 to $500 per acre,
and our cultivated irrigated land is
valued at from $500 to 81 900 per acre.

RAll.Renring Huh.

Harry V. Rand of Vancouver, nephew
of NJ. Y. Rand, with his uncle, NJ. ",
was in Hood River showing model Of
his invention Of ball-bearing hub for
wheeled vehicles other than bicycles,
including railroad cars and automobiles.
He has millions Of dollars in his inven.
tion. 1t will revolutionize vehicle man
ufacture, for it is to all vehicles what
the ball-bearings are to the bicycle.
Mr.. Rand is Vancouver boy, having
been raised in that city. He has been
a steady, hard working boy, working
in the business houses in Vancouver
and Portland during the day, and away
into the night would work on his inven-
ton. A stock company has been
formed in Portland to promote the
manufacture of the invention. Such
men as Humes of San Francisco, Benja.
min P. Youmans Of Portland, are among
the officers Of the company. Mr.. Rand
is to be congratulated upon his success
in overcoming difficulties in ball-bear-
ing mechanism, which have bafFlled the
skill of all machinists heretofore.
