FRUIT TREES
GROWERS SHOULD APPLY PRIN-
CIPLES OF SELECTION.
The Reverend j. w. Jenkins, of Bethel
Heights, VIII Adopt
New Plan.

The Reverend j. w. Jenkins, pro-
prietor of the Bethel Heights Walnut
Groves, spent Saturday and Sunday in
Dallas, on his way home from Mon
mouth, where he had been to act as
one of the judges in the High School
debate between the Bethel and Mon
mouth teams.
As the head of one of the largest
orchard tracts in this county, Mr..
Jenkins naturally takes great interest
in fruit, and is constantly studying the
question from many different angles.
Formerly a resident of Hood River,
where a knowledge of the subject is
one of the requirements of good citi-
zenship, he came to have an intimate
understanding of its many phases.
When he first saw the highlands he
tween Mccoy and the Willamette Riv-
er, where the altitude is 600 and even
500 feet above sea level, he quickly re-
cognized it's value as fruit producing
section that had all the advantages of
the Hood River region, at much
lower price per acre. Purchasing
his theory into practice. Many of his
neighbors thought he was making a
big mistake, but they are beginning to
alter their opinion, for the reason
that, as far as he has gone, he has
made a success of it. His trees speak
for themselves. OF many varieties and
kinds, they are making a marvellous
growth, and are unusually thrifty and
healthy.
VIII Increase Acreage.
The success of his paintings justi-
fies him in increasing his acreage of
of young trees this spring.
Among the lot will be 600 Franquette
walnuts and 1900 apple trees. The
latter will be composed of Spitzen-
bergs, Newtowns. Rome Beauties De-
licious and Jonathans. He will also
put out 700 black walnut trees, which
will be grated at the age of two years
to English walnuts.
Mr. Jenkins has theory, and very
good one it is, that like, even among
fruit trees, will produce like. He
does not believe that it is good policy
too perpetuate the qualities of a tree
that will produce but five boxes of
fruit, when he can start with scions
from a tree that will bear Is or 20
boxes of just as good or better, fruit.
That is another one of his ideas
Dedigreed trees, and he is preparing
10 put the plan into action. He is go
ng to start by setting out in nursery
'ows 5000 apple trees, which he will
nave grated at the proper time with
jcions of the most select and best
fielding trees in the commercial or
lizards of Hood River. He will also
1ut out in his nursery 1000 peach
rees, which will later be grated with
cons from the best trees in the fam
'us Fafollett peach orchard on Mis-
ion Bottom, near Salem. A careful
ecord will be kept of all his nursery
took, and in case there is any doubt,
II lack of authentic history regarding
tree, 1t will be thrown out without
eremony.

TO WIN A TROPHY

New Orleans, Dec. 31.-John B. Nj
SAINT, the daring American aviator. -
ftdent of adding to his many lauTels OF
the air the Michelin cup record foe
1910, fell to his death at 9:55 this
morning while making a fight pre-
liminary to his attempt to win this
trophy. While preparing to make a
landing on the special field selected
for the ,Iichelin cup trial, eleven miles
north or New Orleans, along the banks
of the Mississippi river, Moisant was
thrown from a Bleriot monoplane and
landed on his head So feet from where
the machine struck the ground. His
neck was broken by the fall. Other
wise there was not a bIuise on his
body.
The neck was broken in the cervical
region. producing death within ten
seconds, according to the coroner.
The moment Moisant struck the earth,
falling In high weeds to the right Of
the field, some women who happened
to be near picked him up while the
press men and officials rushed to him.
A special train happened to be
standing near the scene Of the acci-
dent and the aviator was hurTiedly
placed aboard and rushed to the
union station in this city while physi.
clans who had been telephoned for
hurried down to meet the body.

BY Associated Press.

New York, Dec. 31.-If pictures of
Brigham Young and the Mormon
temple are engraved upon the silver
service presented to the battleship
Utah by the citizens of that state the
United States government is not per-
turbed over the fact. Formal protest
against the decoration Of the service
was lodged with President Taft some
time ago by Hugh G. Miller, of this
city, acting for the Woman's Republi-
can clubs.
Mr.. Miller received q letter from As
sistant Secretary Beekman Winthrop,
of the navy department, saying: IF
it is true that the silver service for
the Utah is patterned as your report,
the department is inclined to the opin-
ion that it would be injudicious and
inadvisable to raise any question Of
issues in which it can be in no wise
concerned"

was taken to morgue.
The expression of Moisant was that
of a sleeping man, not the slightest

He was noted for his daring among
the other aviators and had flown in
much higher winds than that which

in San Francisco, two sisters with him
