The Blackberry Patch.

The raspberry, blackberry and dew
berry should be trained to trellises. The
best trellis for this purpose IL made
by setting posts in the row twenty feet
apart. extending to "a heighth Of six
or eight feet from the ground. On
these at heights Of three and fiveafeet
cross-pieces are nailed, and on the
ends Of these crosspieces wires are
strung on each side. These wires con-
fine the bushes and permit free cult
walton. A wire or 2x4 piece may be
run along the tops of the posts to
steady them.
A we'll established blackberry patch
will last six or seven years. The yields
that may be secured depend largely on
the frequency Of rainfall during the
ripening season. A little dry weather
at this time will result in shriveled,
worthless berries.
The pruning Of the bla ckberry Is very
simple and very important. The large
growing sorts will require more prun-
ing that the others, and those growing
on poor soil will need less than those
growing on soil which Is fertile. II
allowed to do so. the blackberry will
exhaust itself In wood growth in good
soil, hence we curb il by severe prun-
ing Pinch out the tops as soon as the
canes are two feet high, and keep the
resulting side branches under control.
Cut out the old canes as soon as the
crop Is picked.
Backberries are usually propagate6
by suckers. The distance apart is about
four feet in the row, with rows seven
feet apart. The proper depth to set
the plants is about four inches. 1t is
a common practice to plant row Of
potatoes or some other vegetables be-
tween the blackberry rows the first
season. This can also be done with
black raspberries.'

R. R. GILL BUYS
TEN ACRE TRACT

r. h. Gill, of Omaha, Neb., who
first came to the Hood River Valley
last Summer, closed a deal Friday,
with A. d. Moe, owner of the Glacier,
whereby he bought from the latter 10
acres of the 30-acre tract located at
the top of the Tucker Hill grade. The
consideration for the deal was $40, 500
or $l050 per acre, the highest price
paid in the Valley for four year old
trees, in commercial varieties of
which the orchard is set
Mr. Gill was so we'll pleased with
the Hood River country that after he
went back TO the East this Summer he
decided to return here to invest and
make his home He made the purchase
from Mr. Moe after a thorough inves-
tigatiou of the Valley. 81 am going

The deal was made through the
agency of b. +. Duncan & Co., and in
addition to the ten acres Mr.. Gill
bought so acres of hay and farm land
from that firm in Camas Prairie region.

on his person disproved this. The man
wore a gray coat and black trousers,
both of which garments seemed to
have been frayed by long wear In
none of the pockets could be found any
letters or cards from which an identif-
cation could be made. An Ingersol
Junior watch was found in one of the
pockets. The man was evidently a
working man.
From two large holes in the skull,
one on each side near the temples the
theory is advanced that the man may
have committed suicide. However,
Or. Dumble thinks that the Jagged
wounds are larger than a wound made
by 80 caliber pistol, cartridges Of
this caliber having been found in the
dead mans pockets. However close
search revealed no pistol.
