pretenSeS.

Henry Grass returned last night
from Quincy, where he had been call
ed by the prosecuting attorney of
Douglas county to assist in the State

1t seems that Reisdorf had con-
Quoted hotel at Quincy, which he
decided to SELL In making his deal
with the purchaser he informed that
unsuspecting person that the rent for
the premises in question had been
paid in full o June 1st, so the pur-
chase price included a sum equal to
the current rent rate from the date
of the purchase to June 1st.
Subsequently is developed that
Reisdorf had paid no rent, and had
obtained the extra rent money by al
legged false representations. The
case against him alleges obtaining
money under false representations.
Attorney Jack of Spokane defended
Mr.. Reisdorf.
The case was continued until May

125,OOO Fruit Trees Set Out This
Spring. Says Fruit Tree
Inspector Piercey.

81 estimate that there will be at
least 12a 900 fruit trees set out in
OkanogcL county this spring." said
County f. Inspector Piarcey to a
representa-. of the Record Satur-
day. II have inspected more than
10000 and am not yet through. How
many my deputy at Oroville has in
spected l do not know, but the ship
ments there have been heavy. One
whole car got away without inspec-
ton because there was so much to do
that we could not get around to it..
Next year more assistants will have
to be employed because the work is
greater than can be attended to.
Next year l look for a great in
crease in the number of trees put out.
The Okanogan country will put out a
large acreage The irrigated tract
there will eventually be one large Or
chard. No, can't estimate the num-
Der, but | believe it will be more than
the whole county is putting out this
spring.
"Yes, | throw out many trees.
Nearly all nurseries ship in bad stock.
In some shipments l have thrown out
as much as so per cent, but it gen.
orally runs from 5 to 10 per cent.
1t requires careful watching to keep
out infected or diseased stock"
Can you estimate the acreage be-
ing put out?" was asked.
NO" Mr.. Piercey replied, Il can
not. Later / will be able to, and
also to tell the varieties being put
out. l intend to take a census OF
every orchard in the county, taking
the name of every owner, the loca-
ton, varieties, age of orchard, and
state of healthfullnsss, so that | will
have a perfect record. This work will
be done as the inspection is made
and by referring to the book / can
tell where disease or infection exists
and where watchfullness is required
But l am forgetting the acreage
This varies so much in localities, and
according to the kind of fruit, that
any estimate is hazardous. Apples
run from 80 to 100 trees to the acre
and peach, plum and cherry from 10(
to 115. Averaging it at seventy-fivt
trees per acre would give about
1.650 acres. ''-Conconully Record.
