Great Result from SnraYlng.

At q meeting of the Clackamas
County horticultural society, held a
few days ago, Mr.. w. W. Jesse, of
Barlow, one of the best known men in
Clackamas county, made statement
which should bring comfort to Hon.
h. l.. Smith, recent president of the
Oregon State Board of horticulture.
Mr.. Jesse's statement was that about a
year ago he heard Hood River Smith
say In public meeting that he could

trees which were not eaten by worms,
more than three -fourths of the apples
grown on the sprayed rows would be
free from worms. MIR. Jesse had been
raising apples tor good many years
but he had never tried to fight the
Goblin moth by spraying. 1t had not
seemed worth while for him to spray
when he knew that all around him
there would be infested trees which
would not be sprayed. Impressed by
what Mr.. Smith said he gave his ap
pies regular spraying with arsenate Of
lead this year and harvested crop of

wcrms. Mr.. Jesse gives Mr.. Smith
full credit and Is doing his best to

Rae 4 Hatfield Short on Apnles.

Mr.. Hatfield, of Rae & Hatfield, re-
turned this week froma flying tlip
west. Mr.. Hatfield went for the pur.
pose of looking into the freight situa-
tion as ther railroads through that
section as well as in many other parts
of the United States are unable to
furnish cars for prompt shipments of
fruits. There has also been some
complaint regarding box shortage. 1t
was to see that the hest arrangement
possible was made for the expeditions
transportation of his fruit east that
Mr.. Hatfield made his journey.
While not In Colorado long enough
to get much information from obser-
walton, Mr.. Hatfield reports that Col.
orado will not have as many apples
this year as was originally expected.
His firm has had wires from Colorado
since the recent snow but those stated
that 1t was yet too early to asceI tain
the extent of the damage to fruit.
The snow will do no damage but the
frost possibly will and it will take
some time to see just how smuch the
latter had affected the fruit, -Friut

SEATTLE FAIR PRO-
CROSSING NICELY

The work of creating the Alaska. .Yu-
kon Pacific exposition is progressing
rapidly. The raising of more than
$3.50, 900 Ia one day has put the
worlds fair on strong financial bas-
Is and the.management is busy per-
fecting and carrying out plans to
make the 1909 fair the most successful
from every stand poiut that has ever
been held.
John @. blasted, the noted land
scape artist of BROOKLYN, Mass., who
laid out the Chicago and Portland sex-
positions, is now at work designing
the grounds andsarranging the build
ings. He has pronounced the site az
soenically, the finest ever utilized fol
such purpose.
Henry Il. Reed, director of exploi-
tation, 10 now busily engaged in max
ing arrangements for the states to
participate. He has Major L. s. Clar-
son, special commissioner, in the
field visiting the governors of all the
commonwelths. Every governor he
hassstalked with has signified his inten-
tion OF recommending liberal appro-
priation for building and an exhib-
1t. Mr.. Reed Is also carrying on an
extensive campaign to secure the 1909
meeting Of national conventions.
The executive committee of the ex-
position has appropriated 800, 900 for
the live stock show, which will he
on an extensive scale, and from.pres-
ent Indications promises to be the
most successful ever held.
The management Is receiving letters
from all over the country endorsing
the object of the exposition, and
pledging support from different local
tiles.
The primary purpose of the fair is
to exploit the resources and potenti-
alities Of Alaska, Yukon and the Pa
cifio Northwest, and to make known
and foster the vast Importance of the
trade of the Pacific ocean and of the
countries bordering upon 1t. Differ
ent from other fairs, the Alaska Y u
k0n Pacific exposition will not cele
brate any particular event. The
awakening of the Pacific, the wonder
full achievement in all lines of effort
of the countries In and bordering
thereon, and the important role the
commerce of the great ocean plays in
that Of the world, are the most note.
worthy things the fair will celebrate.
1t will be great international expo
sition. Historical sentiment will not
be depended upon to arouse interest
and induce participation.

Many Apples Destroyed at Canyon City
A Canyon City dispatch to the Chi
O 60 Packer says:
lou wire regarding the storm just
received. would have written ear
Iier but was unable to get anything
like definite knowledge of the dam
age until this afternoon. i have been
out In the orchards this afternoon
aud believe that all the apples that
we're not picked before the storm are
completely ruined. They are very
soft and are turning black.
| believe that fully 80 per cent of
the crop that escaped the hail OF few
weeks ago is still ON the trees, also
about 65 per cent Of the apples in the
hail belt were not picked and are, of
course, a total loss. When all the
damage IL summed up don't believe
that over 81 per cent of the crop will
be marketable. Early in the season
the apple crop OF this vicinity was es
timaIed at 600 cars or more.
The damage to the trees is hard to
estimate. They we're very heavily
loaded with apples and the additional
weight of snow has ruined some COM
pletely and damaged others very bad
ly. The snow was wet and fell to a
depth of at least eighteen inches ON
level. ID. f. Parks.

Augustus the Strong Of Saxony was
a great lover Of china, and his belief in
the transmutation of metals into gold
was accidentally the cause of the dis
coyery of the celebrated Dresden ware.
ANY one fortunate enough to be the
possessor of a piece of this old china
will invariably find his initials, A. K,
on the back of 1t. An ~apothecary's lad
by the name of Bottinger had, it is
said, composed a tincture that was
supposed to be capable of being trans
formed into gold. So successful an al
chemist was BY order of Augustus
placed under lock and key, but, unlike
most prisoners, with a laboratory at
his disposal. This restraint almost de-
prived the lad of his reason, and ac-
cordingly he was removed to Dresden
and allowed a certain liberty. 1t was
here while pursuing his experiments
TINT Bottinger discovered the Meissen
porcelain, commonly called Dresden
china, which to Augustus was as well
come as IL the youth had been success
fun in transmitting gold, for he had ex-
pended large sums In what is known
as the Japan palace. Many workmen
were engaged from Delft to work the
new ware, and In ITO the manufacture
of Meissen began the supply of the de-
mrand which soon became European.
