A. F. Estes, of Cashmere, is the
head of new concern which has for
its object the development of fruit
lands in the Vale of Cashmere. He
has associated with number of
others and organized a company to
be known as the Estes Orchard COM
pany, a corporation capitalized at
100000.
In discussing with a World man
regarding his new company, Mr.. Es-
ties said: THE object of the COM
pany is mainly to plant and care for
a large orchard in the Wenatchee
valley. There will be a large body
of land embraced in the project, all
Of which lies close to the railroad
and partly in the Estes Orchards.
This orchard is to be cared for and
looked after by experienced fruit
men. The company expects to plant
principally apples of the best varie-
ties The company also owns con-
siderable timber land adjoining, and
intends to have it's own sawmills and
box factories. Telephone lines and
pumping plants will come later"
"a real estate business will also
be carried on, with a head Office at
Cashmere and a branch at Seattle
A. F. Estes will be president and
general manager of the concern, and
D. S. Wilmer will be vice president.
I'VE expect to hold a meeting in
Seattle this week for the purpose of
perfecting our organization. On our
return we will place an order for
enough trees to plant at least 100
acres. We now have land to the
value of $55, 200. We expect our
stock to increase 500 per cent with
in four years, as we'll as to pay divi-
dends. 1t is not the intention of the
company to sell stock, but rather to
develop its holdings and to have one
of the best commercial orchards in
the state"

N. {. RECEPTION
Of NEW MEMBERS
MORNING SERVICE AT METHO-
DIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH YES
TERDAY CONCLUDED BY RE-
CEPTION OF MEMBERS.

1t was an impressive scene when
80 persons took upon themselves the
vows of the church at the close of
the morning service at the Metho-
dist Episcopal church yesterday.
Eighteen of these united on confess
sion of faith and twelve presented
letters from other churches. These
letters indicated recent arrivals in
Wenatchee, having been granted by
states as divergent as Kentucky and
Minnesota. This increase in men,
bership was due in large part to the
special meetings that have been in
progress in the church under the di-
rection of Evangelists Mr.. and Mis-.
Clulow of Tacoma.
At the morning service the Rev.
Mr.. Clulow preached from the text,
Lift up a standard for the people -
The theme of the discourse was an
exposition of the subject of scriptu-
raj holiness. In calculating the text
the speaker maintained that it was
the duty Of the minister to bring the
people to an acceptance Of the stand-
ard set forth by the scriptures anu
not to lower the standard to harmon
ize with conventional standards %
the day. AS a basis for answering
the question What is scriptural
holiness and how it may be attain
ed?' he sought to show that the
popular conception of the standard
of Christian conduct is sometimes
too high, making it an impossible
one and sometimes it is too low He
maintained that it did not consist
in the perfection of conduct becauce
perfection was an attribute only of
the Deity, but that it did consist in
serving God with ones heart and
mind and soul "a machine" said
he, sis spoken of as perfect mech
anism when it serves the end for
which it was intended, so the per-
lection of conduct will fulfill all
scriptural requirements when it is

submission to the requirements and

emphasis of right conduct between
man and man.
A liberal offering was made by the
congregation to Mr.. and Mrs. Clulow
for their services and this was sup
plemented by the good wishes of the
members for continued success in
their chosen work Mr.. Clulow asked
that each individual offering be ac-

that he and Mrs. Clulow would spend

would be kept.
