mounted on ponies and others, dressed

N. G.. Spencer, of Salt Lake City,
Utah, gave a demonstration here Sat
urday, at the store room of Gilbert &
Co. of the Schelenger fruit grading
machine, which grades apples in five
tier sizes. The grades are distributed
IN canvas troughs to burlap receptacles
and the fruit is not in the least bruised.
There are two sets of grading mechan-
ism and thus the operator of the ma
chine is enabled to grade the apples for
color and blemishes as he feeds it.
The grading device consists of a
series of felt covered receptacles with
holes in the center of them, which
allow the apples to drop through to the
canvas troughs. The receptaeles near
est the hopper are of course the small
er ones. If the apple is too large for
the first hole it is passed back to the
next receptacle and so on till it reaches
the right grade.
The operations Of the machine were
witnessed by many of the Valleys
growers Saturday, and its methods APP
proved. The practicability of the
mechanism was praised by E. II.

SPOKANE, July 20.--The city OF
Spokane today faces the prospect Of
having no building In which to trans
act its business next year as result
of the failure Of the s650,000 bond Is
sue for new city hall, to carry. Yes
terday the city commissioners declar-
ed the proposition had carried by II
votes, but today It developed that the
state constitution requires three
fourth majority. hence the bonds are
defeated. The old city hall has been
sold to the railroads and must be
vacated next March. No new hal
can be built this year. because there
are no funds.

GETTING PEAR LAND
READY FOR IRRIGATION


Many land owners in this county
are already preparing to clear large
tracts so as TO avail themselves Of the |
irrigation which is Offered for next
season.
Thousands of fruit trees will be
planted, but fully so percent OF these
will be pears, as this valley is not
only the best pear land In the United
States. but In the world. The evil
dence Of this is that Rogue river pears
bring a better price In market at home
and In foreign countries than those
grown in any other locality. Jose
phine county will put In many thou
sands OF acres Of this kind OF fruit
and Jackson will plant still larger
acreage. This is indeed the home of
the pear and 1t seems TO be able to
protect itself against most OF the in
sect pests.
While fruit will have prominent
place IN this county II will by no
means monopolize the farms. as al
falfa and grain will become the Inn
portant crops OF the future the OBJ
ject being to supply our home mar
kets. Keep the money at home"
will be the slogan from this time on.
Next year there will be demand for
a Touring mill in Grants Pass and
this will become wheat and corn
growing section. Under proper sys-
TEN OF irrigation Josephine county
can raise 40 bushels of wheat and GO
bushels OF corn to the acre. With al.
falfa, the dairy interests will large
| ly increase and there will be In Grants
Pass an actual demand for a large
creamery with alfalfa Josephine
can furnish the markets not only "
