REVIVE MEMORIES
AMONG THE TREES
Old Soldiers to Hold Re-
union Sept. 2-5---Res-
idents of Valley are
Asked to Join.

Active preparations for the reunion
of the old soldiers are being made.
The meeting will be held in a grove
on the Newt Ward ranck two and one
half miles south of H anilton and one
half mile from Grantsdale. Last year
the reunion was held on the G. w.
Ward ranch on Camas, where an ex-
cellent time was had, but it was de-
should congregate at place more
easily accessible from the railroad.
The meeting will last four DAYS, be-
ginning Sept. ?, J. B. Overturf, of
the G. A r., who was at Missouia
Friday, reports that tents from Fort
Missoula will probably be secured to
house the old soldiers and their guests
during the session. A large central
tent, seating about 500 people, has
been obtained for use as a dining
room. All residents of the Bitter Root
are inyited to join with the veterans,
and all G. A. r. camps throughout
the state have been invited.
The features of the reunion includes
a barbecue, speaking by United States
Senator Joseph M. Dixon and possibly
Senator Carter and a revival of the
songs and anecdotes of the old war
days. Both the Union and Confeder-
ate survivors of the great war frater-
nize harmouiously and have much f un
at the expense of each other. The ir
ranks are thinning fast, and in the ir
old age it is a keen pleasure to look
back upon the great struggle whi CHI
reflected glory upon both the wear ers
of the blue and the gray.

THE CHERRY CROP
AN IMPORTANT. ITEM
Bitter Root Growers Derive
Good Profits from this Fruit
---Association Now Occu-
pies New Quarters.

The Bitter Root Fruit Growers as
sociation has established headquar-
ters in it's new warehouse en- the
railway track, north OF the H lmilton
depot. Ample room for handling the
fruit grown in this vicinity at present
has been provided and an office has
been fitted up in the north end of the
building. Here Manager Brooks and
Mr.. Ferbrache make their head
quarters.
Just now they are busy with the
cherry crop. The association this
year has shipped about one thousand
crates and will probably handle about
$500 crates in all. The price has
ranged from $50 to $500 per crate
Growers outside of the associa tito n
have doubtless shipped as many more.
Cherries are destined to become an
important item in the business of the
Bitter Root fruit grower. No finer
cherries can be grown anywhere than
in the Bitter Root valley. Both sweet
and sour cherries are grown here with
scarcely any effort. Maturing late in
the season ordinarily they meet with
but little competition on the market.
Little attention has been given cher
ries hereabouts, there being but few
orchards 10 this section. The largest
cherry orchard in the valley is owned
by the Calmona Orchard Co. on Eight
Mile, of which Mr.. us. Swartz is
manager. They have rs acres of
sweet cherries of the Bing and Lam.
bent varieties. This year the trees
are loaded with fruit.
To give the local growers an idea OF
the Importance of this item of horti
culture we would call attention to the
current Cherry edition of Bette,
fruit, the famous Hood River publ
cation. Speaking of cherries Better

any other section of America. Cali
fornia produces good cherry, but not
the equal of the cherries of the north :
west. A sweet cherry cannot be pro-
duced to any extent east of the Rocky
mountains. Last year California
shipped but seventy-eight carloads OF
cherries to the east. This quantity is
a mere drop in the bucket, as far as
consumption and demand go. Seventy
eight cars of cherries hardly mean one
carload during the entire season in all
Of the ig eastern cities, which goes
to show the Immense opportunity for
the cherrv in Oregon, Washington
and Idaho. The cherry industry is
even yet in it's infancy, SO to speak,
in the northwest, for the reason that
carloads are only shipped from few
points. The number of carloads
grown in the northwest will probably
not exceed fifteen or twenty at the
most that are shipped from these
states. There is no doubt that there
is an eastern market for carloads OF
cherries by the hundreds. When dis
tricts get to growing sufficient guam
titles of cherries to move in carloads
reg ularly under refrigeration, the
amount of money that will be realized
out of cherries will be something Won
derful. Even at cannery prices,
growers have made as high as U.s.
per acre net profit and this profit was
made at four cents a pound. Cherries
have been shipped out of some of our
districts by local express, which, OF
course, is much higher than in car
loads, and more or less loss from not
being under ice, and netted from five
to seven cents a pound. Cherries were
shipped by the association in HOOD
river in open express and netted the
grower twelve and one-half cents pei
pound in 1907. This shows the price
that can be realized out of eastern
markets on fresh cherries. This price
would be firm fifty to one hundred pei
cent greater than cannery prices,
which means that cherry orchards, in
our opinion, would net the grove,
81, 900 per acre or more, when they are
grown in sufficient quantity to be
shipped in carloads and handled prop
erly. Cherries can be grown in al
most every locality of the northwest
Few localities, however, have grown
cherries to any extent. Yet the quail.
ity is superb, unexcelled anywhere
else in the world.

CONFER ABOUT DUTIES OF
 HIGH SCHOOL INSPECTORS
Professors Rutland and DOster OmtIlno
 Work to Christmas.


 In compliance with the rules and re9- ulattons of the State Department of Ed. ucation J. R. Rutland and J, J. Doster recently appointed by the Superintend. ent of Education to the office of tnspect- ors of the county system of high schools of the State, Monday morning held a long conference with Harry c. Gunnels secretary of the High School Commits sion. relative to their new dutfes
 The conference lasted the greater part of the day, and details of fine in- spection which is to be made were thor. oughly gone over. It has been planned for the inspectors to visit four schooIa each before the Christmas holidays In pursuance of their duties, and ali of the schools of the State now in oners- . ton have been notified that inspectors will drop in on them almost any old day.
 The exact or, for that matter, approx. innate dates. of the inspection win not be made public, it being the policy of the department that the inspection take place at times unexpected by the prIn. cipals and teachers of the various schools The principals of the twenty two various schools now in operation were therefore notified to eb ready for such inspection whenever they saw inc inspectors coming.
 The inspectors will return to their homes this morning.
