Avoid talking loudly, especially in

Avoid making faces when she talks,

Avoid blase air, and appear bright

Avoid ostentatious dressing. or

Avoid slang; it may sound amusing

New Irrigating Company at MT. Hood.

The Glacier Irrigating Company has
been formed at Mt. Hood, which will
begin operations very soon. The COM
pany was formed several months ago
but have been waiting the completion
of papers. the granting of permit to
cross the government reserve, and
other details. They have filed on
3, 900 inches of water in Sand Canyon
and Fall Creek, and will take the
water out of those streams lower down
than was contemplated by the Noun.
tain View company.
G. g. Ruff, Of Portland, who has q
fine ranch in the upper va ley, was in
the Office the first of the week, and
says that the new ditch will be built
on practical lines, and will be pushed
through this summer IL possible.
They have fully 5000 inches OF water
in sight, and while not attempting to
take it out all at once, will build the
ditch with the view of enlarging 1t as
necessities require. He anticipates
no trouble in securing the government
permit, as the experiences Of the past
will be valuable in going at 1t the
right way. The government is
stickler for red tape, and the slightest
detail must be in accordance with the
requirements. These details they will
endeavor to have correct before they
submit their petition.
Mr.. Ruff informs US that the Middle
Fork company have now secured their
permit, after several years delay, and
is now in good shape.

Gen'l Passenger Agent Craig Resigns

A. l.. Craig, who for 10 years has
been general passenger agent of the
0. r. & N. system, has resigned to be
come general passenger traffic manager
of the Great Northern with headqaur-
ters in ST. Paul.
Mr.. Craig has been closely allied
with the development of Oregon dur
ing his connection with the 0. X. u
~. and is one of the most capable
and popular railroad men in the west.
Speaking of his resignation, the Ore
gOnian says:
General Passenger Agent A. L..
Craig, of the,O. r. & N, has accepted
the position of passenger traffic man
ager of the Great Northern with offices
at st. Paul, will leave for the east
about June 20. He will take posses
zion of his new position on July J..
This can be definitely ann ounced from
authority that cannot be questioned;
Mr.. Craig will not make a formal
announcement for a few days vet, but
it is known from other sources that
he has decided to leave the Hartman
service and 90 with the Hill road.
AS head of the Great Northern pas
senger department, Mr. Craig will take
much more prominent position In
the passenger world, with about
double the salary that the Hartman
officials pay to the head of the passen
ger department of the o. r. Il N.
Few men could afford to disregard
such splendid opportunity for ad
vancement. Coming as it does to Mr..
Craig wholly without solicitation, II
is a splendid testimonial of his ability
in the railroad bust ness.

Prune Situation In California.

After careful looking over of the
prune situation, so far as regards fu-
lures, 1t is our impression that the
coming crop in the state will amount
to at least 10000, 600 pounds and
probably more. Estimates of the
prune crop are placing the figures at
anywhere from l25, 600, 600 to l80, 600, =
OOO pounds for the state, but we be-
lleve that, as near as can be said at
this time, l5O,000,0O to l6O. 600, 600
pounds will represent the output
when the season is over. OF this
amount, in round figures. Santa Clara
Valley will put to 100, 600, 00O pounds; !;
some think a little less. The state
outside of Santa Clara Valley will pro-
duce, taking all sections other than
that district, little better chan the
usual proportion for outside prunes,
which is generally one-third of the
total; hence, we are figuring that this
year should turn out better than $50, :
0OO, ,000 pounds.
So far as future prices go, the mar
ket is nominally 2224c and Sc for out.
side and Santa Claras respectively. A
numDoI vi ehTly safes were mhue On
the basis of Sc for Santa Claras, and
this figure was later cut to 2%c and
again to 2Ac, and in the past few
days some goods have been contracted
on the latter basis for Santa Claras
but the figure is net general one,
and the market m y said to be on
Sc basis, with sellers not anxious at
anything less, and, In some cases, not
particularly free sellers at any figure,
as packers have not bought very hber-
ally as yet. Growers ideas are high
under existing conditions, and while
producers may object to our express
ing ourselves in this fashion, we be-
lieve the truth we're better published
than otherwise in all cases for the
benefit of all concerned. Consider
able benefit, however, will doubtless
accrue to the market generally If
growers hold off contracting their
prunes temporarily, as they are doing
at the present time. What purchases
are being made from growers, how
ever, are on the basis of about 2213c

JOSEPHINE COUNTY
FRUIT GROWERS UNION

The Josephine County Fruit Grow
ers Union is to be organized on Sat
urday, June %, when a meeting for
that purpose will be held by the fruit
men at the Courier office, in Grants
Pass at p. m.
A thorough canvass of the orchard
lists Of the county has been made and
all have signtiied a willingness to join
the proposed union. The cost of
membership will be nominal probably
not over 81. so and the annual dues
will be not over 81. The marketing Of
fruit and other expenses of the union
will be borne by per cent and the
sales made, thus each member will
pay in proportion to the amount OF
fruit the union handles for him. In
the purchase of supplies such as box
ca, spraying mate ia. e. C. ,sthe members
would be supplied at cost.
The union will lie incorporated and
the officers will consist of a president,

miles west of Grants Pass. They ex-
