Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the disesaed portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf.
ness, and that is by constitus sional re-
medies. Deafness is cansed by an
inflsmed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustsohian Tube. When
this tube is lnfiamed you have a
rambling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
tiammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever !;
nine cases out of 10 are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an in

FRUIT GROWERS MEETING

Best In Interest and LARGEST in At.
tendance of Any Ever Held
in Rogue River Valley.
Continued from last week..

Prof. Claude I. Lewis, horticul.
turist at the Oregon Agricultural
College. gave at the forenoon session a
highly instructive address on "How
to Plant and Cultivate an Orchard to
Make 1t Profitable" Prof. Lewis
is one of the new men on the College
staff comig last Spring from the New
York Agricultural College and he is a
graduate of Cornell University. His
very practical addresses the answers
he.gave to the many questions asked
him proved that he was thoroughly
up-todate on every phase of orchard
work, and the instructions he gave
were highly appreciated by the fruit
growers. Manager Meserve of the
Union had secured from A. I. Mason,
the well known Hood River orchardist
his box press and it arrived in Grants
Pass last Saturday and was taken to
the court house together with some
boxes of apples contributed by A. T.
Martin, of this city. With these Prof.
Lewis gave a demonstration In apple
packing, showing the packs and most
approved methods that are used by the
Hood River and other progressive
fruit raisers.
Profs. Cordley and Lewis were the
leading speakers on the program but
during the day short addresses were
given by prominent business men of
Grants Pass and by leading orchsrdists
that were to the point and added
much to the interest and the educa
tional features of the sessions.

industry of this Valley and of the
consequent increase in trade and
wealth. it would bring to the city.
l.. b. Hall, president of the First
National Bank of Southern Oregon in
giving business mans views of the
work of fruit growers unions stated
that through union was the most
profitable way to market fruit and
the most economical method OF pur
chasing the necessary supplies re-
quired in the industry, as also the
union would be powerful factor in
securing the enforcement of the laws
to eradicate the pests. That the fruit
industry would become the chef factor
in the wealth of Josephine county was
clearly shown in the address made
by H. L. Gilkey cashier of the First
National Bank of Southern Oregon.
Mr.. Gilkey predicted that the mines,
the dairy, the timber and the water
power would each be q great factor
in making Josephine one of the most
prosperous counties in Oregon but
owing to the vast acreage of fine fruit
land the orchard would lead all in the
wealth returned. In telling how he
and his brother Fred d. Eismsn had
sold this Fall $4,000 worth Of mar
ketable apples from 95 acre orchard
Christopher Eismann gave talk on
practical orchard work that was very
instI uctive and appreciated by all
present. That it is as essential for
the fruit raiser to advertise as it is for
the merchant was shown by H. @.
Bobzien, the we'll known merchant
of this city and fruit raiser. To the
persistent advertising carried on by
Hood River Mr.. Bobz en- attributed
as one cause for that progressive dis
triut making the worlds record each
year for their fruit, and the lack of
advertising was one of the reasons
Rogue River apples do not equal Hood
River apples in price MS they do in
quality. Rogue River is able to hold
the worlds record for high price for
pears and the growing of this ruit is
becoming a leading industry of the
Valley, but it is threatened with ruin
by the blight that is now making
havoc in the pear orchards of the East
and in California, Washington and
Eastern Oregon. Willard Chase who
recently moved here from California
told of the almost fruitless efforts OF
the California orchsrdists to eradicate
the blight from their pear trees and
he cautioned the fruit growers of
Rogue River Valley to guard against
the introduction Of this deadly pest,
for it would end pear growing. j. h.
Robinson, the well known orchardist
and nurseryman of Wilderville made a
comprehensive statement of the var
ious ways that union is of benefit to
fruit raisers Owing to the bad con-
dition of roads Of Josephine county
