Steamer Roanoke Arrives Here
Last Night.
BRINGS MORE SURVIVORS
Tho Steamer Roanoke Was the First
Vessel to Bring the News tosSan
Francisco OF tho Awful Calamity
Nothing New Learned.

The steamer Roanoke arrived here last
night at 9;45 and left up at IL o'clock.
The steamer Roanoke being the first
vessel to report the awful disaster, is
naturally thing OF interest The As
torian reporter met the steamer when
she docked and going aboard found that
these were some survivors on the pas
senget list.
Mr., and Mrs. c. II. Martindale OF
Guthrie, Okla, were found in the saloon
with Miss Anna Akkeeson OF Litchfeld,
Mimi; DR.. and Mrs. j. T. Paul of Co.
lumbus, Neb., were also on board as
well as Mr. and Mrs. T. Rockwell of
Oklahoma.
Mr. Martindale was severely injured
in the wreck, having his ankle wrenchei
and his knee mashed. He has been in
the hospital at Eureka until yesterday
when he took the Roanoke for Portland
from whence he returns to his home at
Guthrie.
Mr., .Martindale had strenuous time,
certainly. as reported by him in his
modest way.

explosion" said he, MY injured condi-
tion shows that. "Like several Others

any other way. | was in the water
from the time of the sinking of the
vessel until 4 o'clock, My wife and child
went down with me and found Mrs,
Martindale on the San Pedro but we
lost our child. The crew of the San
Pedro did everything possible for the
comfort Of the women folks even to
sacrificing themselves" Here Mrs, Mar
tindale interrupted to say that one of
the seamen of the San Pedro took his
shirt off to give to her. Mr.. Martindale
continued: "Mrs, L. Il, Butner and two
children that We're in our party were
lost. They came from Portsmouth, Ohio"
Miss Akeesson stated that she was
treated with all the courtesy and care
that 1t was possible to bestow on her
and while of eoure, her experience was
not pleasant, it certainly might have
been worse, She is very grateful to the
people of Eureka who had furnished her

Recreation in Farm Life.

Some of our farmers wonder why
their sons have desire TO quit the
farm, preferring town or city life. The
cause is with the farmer himself. with
the boy on the arm it is perpetual toll
in good weather. all through the busy
season and perpetual loneliness in bad
weather and most of the winter season.
The time when the farmer has leisure
is at the very time when they can not
get away from home on account Of
their isolation and bad roads, The boy
hungers for company and his heart re
volts against this uncomfortable loueli-
ness, and, to free himself from il,
walks miles through the mud to spend
an hour at the country store We are
glad to note that in some sections Of
our country the young people of both
sexes have broken through these bar
riers and established farmers clubs
and little societies of one sort or an
Other.-Jacks Herald

When to Pick Fruit.

Many growers do not know the prop
er time to pick fruit-that is, the stage
Of maturity that puts it on the market
in good condition. Very often one
sees fine large pears and peaches that
are rotting when the packages are
opened because the fruit has been al
lowed to get too ripe on the tree be-
fore picking. Sometimes when TIE
early market is slack there is a de
mand for immature fruit for cooking
purposes. The first early summer APP
pies may be prottably picked when
they get big enough for cooking. This
will be when the seeds are still white
and before the fruit shows signs of
coloring. The market is always looking
forward to the earliest apples, Dcs-
picked until we'll colored. Those that
stay on the tree late are better Favored
than those picked early. Winter apple :
will usually keep better if allowed to
ripen in the cool weather of the fail.
The ease with which some fruit Sopl-
rates from the twig by nip sidcwiso
gives good idea of maturity. Apples
should not be separated from the tWg
by a straight pull, but by Il twist UP
ward or sidcwtSe. Peaches are picked
for market when they show the clear.
bright colors. They should not be
pinched to test maturity. The expert
"nced picker has a way of rolling the
fiat of his hand over the ridge of Il
peach. and the feel means the same to
him as grain in the sack does to the
millcr's hand-W. y. HUT.

Grass for Pasture.

For permanent pasture, timothy,
red top and orchard grass are gener-
ally used, as these grasses seem to hold
out as well as any. Other kinds may
be added if preferred, but the three
mentioned should never be omitted.
The fall or early spring is an excellent
time for reseeding the pastures, but IN
80 doing the farmer should use clean
seed, use 1t plentifully, and scratch it
in If possible. one Of the best plans
to assist the pasture is to sow white
clover seed on the bare places. as it
will make growth where some seeds
will fail.
