DRIVE OUT THE FOREIGNER
Prominent California Hop Grower
Endorses plan Proposed by
E. c. Kirkpatrick.

NJ H. burst, well-known hop
grower Of Alameda, California, writes
the Oregonian as follows:
81 have Just been enjoying the re-
ports in your issue of the 28th from
the hopgrowers about the advisability
Of reducing the acreage for the 1906
crop.
although as long ago as in your
issue of November IA 1 suggested the
advisability of leaving half of the
hop acreage go fallow for 1906, yet in
the light Of later discussion 1 rather
feel as if the stand taken by e. G.
kirkpatrick might be wiser one in
the long run. He says; Why do we
let the foreigner drive us out of busi-
ness when we should DO the driving.
He advocates growing hops as cheaply
as possible consistent with producing
quality. To all of which l say, amen! |!
There are sales being made in Cali
fornia at to u cents. The hops are
poor stuff, dirtily picked, poorly
handled They are a dead loss to the
owners. The sooner such hop pro-
ducers go out of business the better
for the rest Of US. Dealers quote these
purchasers and want our hops at 81 to
10 cents, but we are inclined to wait
awhile before we sell for the mere cost
of production.
"The legitimate outcome of Mr.. Kirk
patrick's suggestion is that Pacific
Coast hopgrowers can if they grow
the quality, force European hop
growers out of the business.
II believe that we can do this even
with a freight tariff of 2.6 to cents
per lb., as it now is. But when the
canal is built and we can lay our hops
down in London for less than l cent
per pound, freight and insurance, we
will surely be able to grow hops and
deliver them to consumers at a price
no foreigner can compete with.
''This is the future of hopgrowing
on the Pacific Coast. Ten years is not
long to wait We have grown hops
for % years and expect to be in the
business when the canal is dug. Our
hopgrowers must compete with the
world. They must be aggressive.
They must combine for self protection.
They should unite to fight gambling
in their crops by outsiders, also to
push competition in foreign countries.
"The hopgrower of Oregon is just at
a point where he must do something.
Cutting down acreage is only a tenn
porary relief, and which would re-
dound to the credit Of our foreign
Burning the surplus, as
advocated by grower not long ago,
might give temporary relief, but it
would help the foreigner more than
the man who burned his hops. On
the other hand, to grow full crop
and export the surplus, even at a loss,
every year for three or four years, !
would relieve the home market, keep
prices up here, and eventually result
in nearly wiping out hopgrowing as
an English and European industry
"rhen every hop grown on the
Pacific Coast would be in strong de.
mand at good prices.
ut is for these reasons 1 advise ex-
porting 10000 to $4,000 bales of hops
now in growers hands. Every grow
Or show stand in and help in proper
Jon to his holdings. Even if we sell
at loss we will win out on our home

Strength is one of the distinguishing
attributes of a healthy man. In one of
the most beautiful poetic flights known
to literature, the inspired singer finds no
finer figure to express the suns majestic
rising than "rejoicing like strong man
to run race"
Who has not known such a man, the
picture of health, hardy and athletic,
suddenly begin to fail? At first he
has slight cough, which he laughs
at. Presently the cough becomes deep
seated. The scales tell him he is losing
flesh. A little later and the lungs bleed
He grows weaker and more and more
emaciated. Each day sees some circum-
scribing of his activities, until at last he
does not leave the house, and friends
shake their heads and say, vPoor fel-
low! Who would ever have believed it
possible?"
But what are the doctors doing all this
time Doing their best probably, but
usually doing no lasting good. The
emaciation grows more marked, the
weakness more apparent, until at last the
sick man hears the sentence, Where's
no hope.p
- 10 Jlol al bLlS very point OF nope
lessness that the use of DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery has proven
the first step to health to many a suf-
ferer. 1t cures the cough, stops the
hemorrhage, heals the lungs, puts sound
flesh upon the body, and sends the man
back to the activities of life as strong as
ever. It's a wonderful statement, but
it is literally true, that vGolden Medical
Discovery" has cured time and time
again when all other means had abso-
lutely failed to benefit.
There is no alcohol in the tt Discoverv,D
and it is absolutely free from opium, CO.
caine, and all other narcotics.
Persons suffering from disease in
chronic form are invited to consult DR..
R. V. Pierce, by letter, free. All cor
respondence is private and the conf
dences of the sick are guarded with pro-
fessional privacy. The success of the
methods and medicines of DR.. R. V.
Pierce, may be inferred from the fact
that of the thousands treated by him
and his assistant staff of nearly a score
of physicians ninety-eight per cent. have
been perfectly and permanently cured.

PRoMISING "TRIP.

Consumption is to be tackled in a new way this summer, when the steam CT Havana will start north from Hali- fax, equipped as a hospital for pa- tients in the early stages of consump- tion. pr. Frederick Sohon, Washing ton physician, on whose experience the expedition is based, declares that he was suffering from tuberculosis when he made the first two trips into the Arctic regions with Peary, and that his life in the. Far North destroyed the bacilli of the disease. It has been known for some time that the clear and bracing air of the Arctic is good for such troubles. The atmosphere is free from dust, the continuous sunlight dur ing the summer season has beneficial effect, and the absence of vegetable life is an added advantage. Advanced cases will not be taken on the Havana and it is believed that three months in Greenland waters will do the less ser- iously afflicted persons who make the journey permanent good.
 This looks sensible and promising. There is a lot of good fresh air in it, anyhow.

 It is hardly to be doubted that Schil- Ter is permanently one of the worlds great dramatists, one of the interna- tionals. His optimism, his verse, his language, his dramatic power, his pa triotism, his association with Goethe, and above all the intensely German na-
 ture of his own self, have combined to make him one of the worlds literary immortals. His dramas and his poems have furnished proverbs, or as the Ger mans say, winged words" by the score to his countrymen. His verse. and his plays are quoted by pages by the Ger man youth, and by those not so young. A sure sign Of Schiller's hold upon the people is the fact that his contribution to the proverbs, the quotations, the lit erary treasure-stores of the Germans, individually and collectively, could not be removed without rendering far poor

J4PIN'S STR REEGTH.

Nj. Ballet, correspondent of the Paris Journal, who writes from Tokio, takes a most pessimistic view of Rus sia's situation with regard to Japan. In the first place, he says, the most er' roneous notions prevail as to the finan- cial strength of Japan. The fourth na- tional loan of 25O,OO0,0OO francs was taken up by the people as joyfully as was the first. The new taxes are paid without demur, and instead of there being any truth in the reports as to growing misery in Japan, that courl- try was never better off. The cost of living has scarcely increased, and there has been no falling off in the savings banks deposits, but, on the contrary, an increase. There is, it is true. some stagnation i'll trade. he ad-

VISIT TO A NEW ENGLAND FARM.

Last week visited New England farm, chiefly to see the young animals and to photograph them. At no stage of their livess perhaps, are animals more interesting than when they are very young, when the world is all new to them, when we can record their first impressions of it, or, rather, the behavior prompted in part, perhaps, by those first impressions.
 It WAS a bright morning, warm but fresh, and white clouds were floating across an intensely blue sky. The trees were putting forth their first leaves in many shades of tender green, the grass was showing emerald along the roadsides, and here and there amongst it were growing patches of spotted adder's tongue. Tn the pine woods, near the roadside, the trailing ar butts mingled it's breath with that of the spruces and balsans, and the edges of the marshes were glowing with yell low marigoIds. Above them. a marsh hawk rose and fell in graceful curves, sometimes so low as to fan the still standing stalks of last years bullrush- es; robins were calling across the meadows and purple finehes were sing ing, seemingly in half the trees along the roadside.
 Out in the fields the men were busily at work. ploughing the ground. Some had horses, but more were ploughing with oxen. Here was a red team. there 8 black one, and beyond there was a piebald pair, with brass knobs upon their horns, which glinted in the sunlight. s@*zr x s.+t5
 By and by I arrived at the farm house had set out to visit It was a long, low, white building. perched upon the crown os a hill,' and had a row of old sugar naples in front of it. At least most of it was low; the original house was of two stories, but several additions had been made from time to time, perhaps as the growing family of the original owner had demanded more room. To the north of the. house and at right angles to it was great barn, the timbers oe which had been hewn more than a hundred years ago. In
 and out of the wide-open doors purple be1l II o"dilo"o WClC liSlIiSs =ttilu Oll ct wire fence near the wagon shed, a phoebe sat wagging her tail.
 A rap on the door with the old black ened bronze knoeker, brought out a pleasant-faced woman whom I knew slightly. She told me that "tWill'' had gone to Claremont for a load of feed but that he would be back soon. In the meantime would T. have some cider? It was little tart" but not real hard" I would and before I had finished, in came "Will,'' and presently we went out to look at the animals. es.s $51
 The first things we saw were the sheep: They had been recently shear ed, and were all in a Well-fenced in closure on the south side of the barn, getting the full benefit of the sun, but sheltered from the wind. With them were their little lambs, some newly born, and lying close beside their mothers, some bold with their several
 weeks experiences, and venturing
 many yards from the sides of their
 dams, as though to find out what our presence meant. One old sheep had twins, and both were on their knees, nursing, one on either side, while she looked first as us, then at them and 1 then at us again. Many of the sheep E
