Fruit Wrapping Machine.

A fruit wrapping machine has been
put in operation in California. 1t re-
qufres practically no attention and en-
tirely automatically wraps the fruit,
says Country Gentleman. The fruit
rolls down slight incline to the op-
orator, turning slowly over as it ap-
proaches him and giving him an oppor-
tunity to remove defective specimens.
The fruit is lifted and placed stem up
in rubber cups, which carry it to a
mechanism operating much as the hui
man hands. 1t is carried to the paper
being cut and printed from the roll.
The twist Of the paper is made over
the stem end, thus cushioning the
stem and preventing puncture injury
II the machine becomes clogged, it il
stopped by a clutch operated by cleo
tricity. A counting attachment regis
tiers the number wrapped. The capac-
tty Of the machine Is said to equal six
mood wrappers.

Where Shall it be Held?

There seems to be some differ
ence Of opinion as to whether
the All-Benton fair shall be held
down on the flat near Mary's
river or on Second street. Some
question has arisen as to wheth-
er the immense crowd of people
that is sure to be in attendance
can be accommodated on the
streets.
With the Arnold shows ar
ranged in the streets and 500
feet of canvass, "a feet wide,
stretched along The street, to-
gether with all the bunting add
ed by merchants and the addi-
tional display of dry grain and
grasses, it might be well to care
fully consider the danger of fire.

APPLE CULTURE.
Keeping Quality of Fruit Grown In
Sod or Under Tillage.

Keeping Quality of Fruit Grown In
Sod or Under Tillage.
Here is question. often asked al
fruit growers meetings. as answered
In part by 81. W. C. in Rural New
Yorker: rs it true that apples grown
in sod have better keeping quality than
those grown under tillage"
No one seems to say yes or 20 with
out qualification. My own experience
Indicates that the cultivated apples are
larger lighter in color and less firm
than those grown in sod. My sod fruit
will certainly average smaller and con
siderably higher in color. Our only
keeping test is that of putting all to
gether in an ordinary cellar, as we sell
most of our fruit early. From this
test feel sure that the sod apples are
better keepers. In commercial apple
culture this does not make so much
difference. as most apples are put at
once into cold storage and kept there
until sold.
Scientific Experiments.
A large number of scientific expert
ments have been conducted with vary.
ing results. There is a certain definite
time beyond which apples should not
be in storage. After this period the
sod fruit keeps best. The sod fruit
natures earlier than the cultivated
and if picked at the same time is a
little higher colored. This high colored
matured fruit of course keeps better
than immature fruit, especially with
the earlier varieties, like Wealthy.
Alexander and Fameuse. These vari-
cites undoubtedly keep better when
grown on sod land than fruit from
titled land picked at the same time.
Where the latter was allowed to grow
longer there is not much difference
In commercial orcharding think more
depends on other things. such as pick
ing and handling. No matter how the
apple is grown. bruising and rough
handling will hurt the fruit.

recently made a cupboard that
is said to be as fine a piece of
work as any carpenter in town
could turn out. Not only this,
but. Mrs. Hodes has made a
handsome couch, bookcase and
other articles both useful and
ornamental for her home, and
has no trouble in constructing
any article she undertakes. Her

The much advertised circus
aggregation that is "doing" Or
egon in more ways than one un-
der a name which once stood
for excellence and fair dealing,
is just now getting quite a roast
from the press of the state for
its gratuitous insult to said press
in the shape of a proposition to
extend the "usual courtesies"%
(Which means two 4-bit tickets) |
inc xchange for about $40 worth
of advertising. Some years ago,
when this show was owned and |
managed by the parties whose
names are now used as trade
mark, the press was literally
recognized and paid fair price
for it's services in giving the
show publicity. But now it is
very different. And, strange to
say, there are. many editors even
in Oregon who value their own
advertising space so cheaply that
they jump at the bait and donate
advertising to a concern that
is of no possible benefit to the
community, and carries away
many thousand of its dollars.
When newspaper men cheaper
the value of their own space by
such fool breaks they should not
complain if their home patrons
place a like valuation upon it.
D. D. Berman has looked all
over the valley to find place he
liked better than Corvallis, but
he has decided it could not be
found and hence came back sat-
isfied to take his place once more
in the ranks of our business
men. He could not stand it to
see Whiteside & Cooper behind
The counter in the old stand
where he did nice little busi-
ness so long, and hence walked
in with his check and told them
10 step out. He is now ready to
meet his old friends once more
and give them a cordial well
come. Success to you, Mr.. Ber-
nan.

WHAT 1T MEANS.

The primary elections just hele
in many States. with all theil
bitterness, and the numerous
presidential tickets placed in the
field, naturally cause the average
man to wonder why this feeling
of unrest.
In California, Washington, Or.
egon, Missouri, Idaho, New York
and many other States relentless
warfare has been waged by fac
tional strife in both the Republi.
can and Democratic parties, and
many partisans express grave
fear that eternal ruin is at hand.
Perhaps this view may be just
ifiable. when taken from a parti-
san standpoint, but when we
realize that in all of these States
railroad manipulation, Doodle,
land frauds, RIGHTEOUSNESS and
vice have taken precedence over
patriotism and good government
we begin to feel that it is but an
awakening of that just retribu-
tion that is sure to come an pur-
ify the atmosphere in public life.
In perhaps eighteen States or
more, for the first time in history,
the people have been called upon
to express their preference by
ballot for United States Senator.
Had the present manner of nam
ing by the legislature been satis-
factory the people would never
have asked this privilege.
The master minds who pre-
pared that remarkable document
known as the Constitution of the
United States little dreamed that
predatory wealth, with all the
corrupting influences at it's COM
mand, would walk into our legis-
iative halls and name a man for
Senator. But history in many
cases has taught us this is true.
1t would hardly seem necessary
to recall this fact to an Oregon
ian; the Southern Pacific R R.
could testify to it in California;
the baking powder trust could
give you positive evidence of it
in Missouri, and we might follow
on down through the galaxy of
States and find similar condi-
tions.
Many instances are on rec
ord where one or two terms in
the legislature at a salary of
from So to SIS per day, have en-
abled members to return to their
homes and make lavish improve
ments on the farm or in the
home. In what other calling or |
profession could money be made
so fast on such salary, or the
bill of fare at the capital be so
pleasing to the hungry soul? Isl
it any wonder that the neighbor,
seeing these things, becomes en-
vious and seeks to change the
law that makes them possible?
The Senator then elected must
repay the debt OF gratitude he
owes to his benefactor and friend
and hence he shakes the political
plum tree that his friends may
gather up the luscious fruit.
Sometimes the crop is short and
then the devils to pay. When a
man is looking for plums he will
never be satisfied with sour
grapes.
This condition has existed so
long that it's baneful influences
have permeated nearly every
branch of the government and
