THE STRAWBERRY IN THE NOVEL.

Although the Hood River strawberry
well knows its worth it is one of the
modest Of small fruits and its blush
deepens when it finds its fame ex-
tended to such degree that it finds its
name mentioned in glowing terms be-
tween the covers of recent popular
novel. We take the following excerpt
from lthe Superintendent" which
made its appearance at local book
dealers last week and which deals in
most interesting manner with the life
of the numbering mill:
Presently Sally's fingers were
stained rosy red from the big,
splendid Strawberries that lined the
kitchen table. What beautiful fruit
this is, she remarked at length.
They're Hood River berries, Mrs.
Gray explained, Fas she measured sugar
in white shining heap. Famous all
throughIthe West as the finest berries
grown.
oh, remember:now, Sally said
eagerly, that the strawberries we had
on the dining car were called Hood
River berries and it seemed to me tnat
never saw.such splendid ones before.
They made me wantsto get right off
the train and cuddle down in some nice
strawberry patch. close toSthat beauti-
ful Columbia River, and live my life
out right.there. "
We would advise the heroine of the
Superintendent " to take look at
the berry patches. Many of them are
owned by handsome young bachelors,
who, we are sure, would not refuse to
have pretty .lttlel lheroines come cuddle
dewn on their nice strawberry patches
and live their lives out with them.
"The Superintendent" might then be
followed by "The Romance of the
Berry Patch.

 "I once owned a setter," de- clared the latter, (which was very intelligent. I had him on the street one day, and he acted so eueerly about a certain man we met that I asked the man his name, and"-
 "Oh, that's an old story" the collie's advocate broke in sheer inSly. "The mans name was Partridge, of course, and because of that the dog came to set. Ho! Ho! Come again!'
 "You're mistaken" said the other suavely. "The dog did. n't come quite to set, though 6lmost. As a mates of fact, the mans name was Quayle, and the dog hesitated on account of the spelling."-Lippincott's.

The amount Of labor expended upon this crop was large for the area, especially at the transplanting time. One days team work in preparing the land and about g days, mems time, were required to bring it through, al- though the work was not heavy and could have been largely performed by boys. The yield was low owing to the desert and unfer- tilized character Of the soil, onions requiring large amounts Of organic matter in the soil to give good results.
