the 20 years of her life her heart, she
was sure, had remained untouched.
Would she ever love? Several men
had sworn allegiance to her. There
was Archie, who had made no secret
of his alteration, and for two years
had been her shadow. Until last
night he would not take mo" for an
answer, but now at last she felt well
rid of him. She washer reverie was
interrupted by the boys:
"Oh Miss Kathleen, the fish won't
bite, so we're going to East lake. That
won't be too far for you, will it?"
mo, but / think l will return home
now and let you two go-no, no, you
need not come with me- l remember
the way perfectly, so good-by and
good luck"
you just follow the creek till you
reach the road and then you will be all
right" called Fred, as he reluctantly
followed Norris in another direction.
Relieved to be entirely alone, Kath-
leen walked slowly through the warm
spring sunlight, while every step
brought fresh enjoyment from the
sweet scented earth. After going a
long way she observed a very high
board fence surmounted by several
strands of barbed wire. A little farther
on were large gates and, just within,
a queer looking little house. She
wearily wondered what it was and
passed through the gate, seeking to be
put upon the right path home.
Within the house two men were
talking when they were interrupted by
tired voice:
Pardon me, but I fear have lost
my way. Can you tell me where
amp"
The man nearest stared at her, re-
moved his hat, and said: This is the
reservation for the new Woodlawn
cemetery and the road takes you to
the village where you can get car
to the city"
"But do not want to go to the vii
lage or to the city. am' staying with
Mrs. Victor Vance. Can you direct me
to her house?"
The other man then came promptly
forward. Il am George Deylin, Mrs.
Vance's brother, and am on my way
there now if YOU"
"Oh, I'm so glad. I've known you q
long time, so, if you are ready let's
go at once" Interrupted Kathleen.

The hooks creaked distressingly as
the hammock was yiciously swung to
and fro. K hleen was distinctly in a
bad humcr. Here she was at the
house party, with every one looking
askance at her because Archie Ha-
good had suddenly left early that
morning. 1t was after one now, and
soon her hostess and the other guests
would be coming in to lunch. Already
a tinge of disapprobation could be felt
in the atmosphere, and she, too, re-
sented his leaving. It was inconsid-
erate-he might have known that she
would be the odd girl, lost in this
desert Of selfish couples either en-
gagged or about to be. So she was
moping on the broad south porch
when the two small sons Of her hostess
passed, intent on fishing expedition.
With sudden determination she
gang up. "oh Norris, let me go with

Apples That Sell at Thirty Gents Each

Apples That Sell at Thirty Cents Each
Eastern Oregon grows plenty Of
wheat but the grain most before peo-
pies eyes is the apple. Hood River
apples are said to be sold in Paris at
80 cents apiece, to go upon the tables
of millionaires, diplomats and popular
actresses. Fruit lands down in the
canon of Snake river are really worth
$500 to 5000 per acre, and people talk
of 1000 and even $4,000 an acre
The idea seems to be that, if you sell
10000 bushels of apples at a fancy
price, you could dispose OF 100000
bushels at the same price. Washing
ton and Montana are already competi-
tors in the fruit business, and it is
likely that the fruit growers in the
end will find that there is only
limited market for the highest priced
fruit. Yet nobody can deny that Ore
gon apples have a beautiful rosy tex
ture, nor that the complexion Of the
girls is very similar This is not the
result Of eating the apples, for Of
course they are all exported, since
Oregonians cannot afford 80 cents
apiece for apples. It would appear
that the high quality both Of the fruit
and Of the young ladies' compilations
is due to the moist climate.

Lynden defeated Ferndale in the

the past, Ferndale certainly has a
fine little team, which is second to
none except Lynden.
This is the last time the boys
will play at home. and they should
have the encouragement of every one.

choose wisely and know exactly what
he is getting. He knows that the
vital part of the car is the engine and
having considerable experience with
engines of different types, he isn't to
be fooled with the mere claims Of
salesman. He wants to be shown.
One farmer we know was so inSistent
on this point that he made the dealer
install different type OF engine in
machine before he would consider
buying it at all. And this purchaser
was right, for the engine he got was
the best and made by reliable con-
Germ in its own factory.
The automobile may never grow so
numerous as to put the horse out OF
business, but they certainly are
carrying into the country an inesti-
mable amount of comfort, convenience
and satisfaction. Where it used to
take day to 60 to town and do trad
ing, now it is only the work of few
hours, and distant cities and neighbors
that used to be so far away, are now
visited in a mere pleasure jaunt.
Horses are left to work in the fields,
while the owner makes a half hour
run to town for some necessary re-
pair for a mower or pillow, and no
time is lost in marketing the perish
able produce of the farm at the high
est prices. The farmer puts his
machine to good practical use and
gets his money out of it again and
again.
With automobiles, as with other
things, the lowest priced machine
cannot possibly prove the cheapest.

How the Farmer Buys His Auto

The biggest surprise that the farmer
has sprung on the city folks in recent
years land there have been many OF
them) is the way he has taken to
buying automobiles. When motor
cars first came out nearly everybody,
including the automobile companies
thought that these wonderful machines
we're only for the city aristocrats.
And they were, for the farmer who
knew better than to buy while the
automobile industry was in an expert
mental state.
But just as soon as autos proved
themselves dependable, and useful on
country roads as we'll as on asphalt
pavements. then the farmer took
turn at buying machines, much to
the amazement of the blind city man,
who did not suppose that so much
money existed outside of Wall Street.
New York bankers threw up their
hands in horror because the country
folks we're putting their money in
autos instead of specializing in bonds,
and even some ministers delivered
sour faced sermons on the evils of
extravagance-but all the time the
farmer kept right on buying, until
now the automobile is one of the
recognized factors in country life.
There's a reason for this. The
Farmer didn't 60 at it with his eyes
shut. Instead of that he was very
wide awake. Knowing ten times
more than the city man about machin-
cry, in the first place he is able to
