THE BUSY PINE GROVE FRUIT FARM

The writer had occasion to visit the
beautiful COSY home of Mr. and Mrs.

to say Mr.. and Mrs. Pitt and their help
(Which | will say were of the very best }
were busy would be putting it very light
they were just simply hustling.
Peaches Up and down and all round,
in the air and on the ground Mr.. Pitt
has very large young orchard-about
500 bearing fruit this season, He esti-
mates the yield at / 200 bushels this sea-
son, but the writer was informed by one
of the helpers land he is a competent
judge there would be lear l., 800 bushels.
Two of the men picked in one forenoon
90 bushels.
1t sure is pleasant trip for peaches,
not only enjoying the beautiful sights OF
the orchard, but also the kind and genial
hospitality of Mr. and Mrs. Pitt. As
gazed at the abundance of the beautiful
fruit orchard with her branches loaded
to the ground l thought how wonderful
and then on our drive home to see the

last but not least-the large fields of the
beautiful sugar beets-the thought came

NEVER MARRIED
SHASTA SQUAW
JOAQUIN MILLER PUTS QUIETUS
ON OLD STORY-VENERABLE
POET PRAISES INDIAN PRIN-
CESS WHO SAVED HIS LIFE.

San Francisco, June 11.-Denying
the romantic story of his early mar
rage to Sutatot, a Shasta Indian
woman who died recently in Red
ding, Joaquin Miller today stated
that he always regarded the Indian
as one of his best and truest friends,
and paid a warm tribute to her wo-
manliness and character.
The story told by the venerable
poet of the California mountains,
while not authenticating the tales
of his attachment to the Indian prin-
cess, is filled with the romance of
the pioneer western days.
During the Indian uprisings of the
early sos, Sutatot saved Miller's
life, and nursed him back to health
| after he had received almost fatal
wounds during a bloody battle.
Cali the Shasta tribesmen were
my friends" said Miller, "and when
the pioneers had trouble with the
unruly Modocs, the Shastas fought
| shoulder to shoulder with the white
men.
During the fiercely fought battle
of Castle Rock in 1855, many OF the
Shastas were slain. l was wounded
in the head by an arrow and through
the body by bullet. After the bat
| tie, Sutatot, whose two brothers had
fallen in the fight, had me removed
to her own tent and cared for me
tenderly until / was able to be taken
down the river.
During my convalescence I went
| to Europe, and while on the CONT
nent learned that Sutatot had been
taken prisoner by the Mojocs. Later,
was happy to hear that Jim Brock,
the noted scout, had secured her re-
lease, and had made her his wife.
"All stories that I married Sutatot
were cut from whole cloth. I res
pected both Jim Brock and his wife,
and no woman who ever lived, red
/ or white, had nobler soul than she
When she nursed me back to life
after I had been shot down she was
an Indian and without the so-called
advantages of civilization but she
had a soul as white as the snow
covered summit of Mount Shasta
and I mourn her as one of my own
people"
