WATER GARDENS IN THE YARD
A Plea for Something Different in the
Small Home Enclosure.

Small Home Enclosure.
A small outdoor water garden IS
lust the thing to make ones place diff
ferent from the general run of COM
monplace gardens, says writer in
the Garden Magazine. Why not try
some hardy water lilies this year.
l have two pools in my garden, and
both are a source of great pleasure
TO my family and myself, as well as
the stranger in my gates. One is
planted with water lilies and the other
with lotus. In the former we have
flowers from early spring to late
autumn. The colors are white, yell
low and pink The lotus blooms for
a period of about two months, and 1
have nothing in my garden to COM
pare with it's flowers in beauty.
If you are lazy gardener try water
lilies. They require no watering, when
everything else is drying up, and no
wedding at any time. They multiply
so fast with me that most of them
have to be dug up every spring, and
the increase sells at good prices. Do
not grow geraniums, cannas, coleus
and the like, when so many beautiful
plants can be grown so different from
your neighbors.

other note, which proved to be merely

was delivering cutting reproof to

go, he saw something in the fellows
face that made him stop and ask him
to whom he was to deliver the other

peared so confused that Lord Waters
was determined to be answered. His

what he feared. 1t was intended for

why did he not see the King and have
the note authenticated? Why act
like jealous fool?"

CREAMERY IS
MUCH NEEDED
By Roswell Shelley.

By Roswell Shelley.
Odell, East Hood River Valley, May
%. The time is surely ripe not only
for the discussion of diversified in
dustries here but for the actual es-
tablishment Of creameries and dairies
throughout the valley. There ID a
large quantity of clover hay to be
carried over this season, so with the
present and prospective acreage of
the present dilema Is the building Of
creameries.
With the present irrigation system
and the prolific returns from clover,
together with other climatic condi-
tions, there is no spot in the North
west that is better adapted for dairy
ing than is our valley. Why not call
public meeting for the discussion of
this matterY the local development
league could engage in no better en-
terprise for the upbuilding Of our val
ley. The Willamette valley and coast
counties are coming to the front along
these lines, and our climate here
equals that of the coast counties.
With the best established market
upon the very best berries and apples
that are grown, why not widen our
fame by placing upon the market a
high grade article of butter and
cheese? BY doing this the proplem of
a home market for all the clover that
can be raised is at once solved. When
this is done clover lands will be as
largely sought after as Is apple land
today.
Then, however, we must seek a mar
ket for our products along this line
other than local market. At present
the home market is easily blocked.
Last Saturday party from Odell took |
few rolls of butter to town and failed
to sell it. And this leads us to ask
where that fellow is that announced
to the public through the Glacier
few weeks ago that he could sell Is |
rolls Of butter each day. Good cream
cry butter and fresh cream cheese
finds market always.

Improvement Co. We are quite will
ing to aid in this enterprise to the
end that the grounds about the stores
here shall be kept clean and respect
able, but in future we shall object to
the blocking up of the private drive

making the front of the premises an

That Big Day at 0delI.
That was promised did not materi-
alize into what was expected, nor half
what it would have been had the
weather been promising. Notwith-
standing the exceedingly forbidding
weather, few people we're present in
the forenoon and large enthusiastic
crowd was in attendance at the ball
game in the afternoon to witness the
lineup between the Bulldogs of Hood
River and a pickup nine at Odell.
Thescore stood | to II in favor of the
Bulldogs. Our fellows were the butt
Of many joke for getting beaten by

days and other games to follow.
Charles M. Busey last week, sold ten
acres Of his 20 acre tract near Odell
for Sl75 per ace and reserves the grow
ling crop, which is equal to $40 per
acre. This consideration is satisfac-
tory to Mr.. Busey, and is safe in
Sestment for the buer. 1t is a flatter-
ing ad for our section. With water
covering this long neglected section,
Odell will now make rapid strides in
the way of development with its nat
ural advantages and scenic pictures.
There is no spot in all the valley that
PRESENTS greater attractions to the
than does Odell.

unusully large procession was formed
at the house and the crowd was largely

Miss Annie was Is years and two
months old. Such a sudden taking
away of one standing upon the thresh-

BIG REVIVAL CLOSES.

The revival services which have been in progress at the First Methodist church closed Thurs day night, says the Jonesboro Sun. The meetings have re- suited in more good than any ever before held in the city. The exact number of conversions is not at hand but it is safe to say the number will reach over three hundred. There has been received into the First Methodist church one hundred and forty members and on next Sunday will receive another class of per- haps twenty-five. The Baptist church has received a great many members as we'll as the Presbyterians and the churches of North Jonesboro. At the service last night Rev. Fred Little the pastor preached a most excellent sermon and there were two conversions.
