Who is this fellow, anyhow? Dial

entered the room, Betty burst through
the hall door like cyclone, and col

cantankerous old woman!" she de-
clared, feeling for her handkerchief.
"You can take care of your own Aunt
Selma, Jim Wilson. I will never go

Dallas asked with interest.

Anyhow, she won't have me back"
she finished, land she has sent for

Earthquake-Proof Construction.

new method of fre-proof con,
struction for small buildings has been
invented in response to the growing
demand. Steel tubing filled with con
crete is used for the frame, and net
work of wire for the basis of walls,
floors and roof. On this skeleton
concrete house of such strength can
be built that, it is claimed, it will be
practically acknowledgement. Six-inch
pipe, steel wire and expanded metal,
malleable iron fittings and cement are
the materials used. The wires are
strung to tension Of 1000 pounds,
and bind the whole together with
enormous solidity. On them the con-
crete is spread three inches thick in
spans not exceeding Is feet Construc-
ton is so simple that unskilled labor
can be largely used.

G. Abbot, Wolfeboro, N. H., says
IT was afflicted with bad case of

PATRONS PROTEST
AGAINST CHARGE

A meeting called by ranchers 81
Husum. Wash.. recently. 10 protest
against the 5-eeat raise by the Nhitt
Salmon Telephone Company has started
something strenuous, and a llvely tii'
is looked for, says a dispatch TO lht
Portland Telegram. The object Of the
meeting was 10 consider steps fOf the
organization Of d mutual telephone
eompanv. Several representatives OF
the White Salmon company were IN at
/ tendance. but feeling was so high thai
they were denied a hearing. Ihe re-
suit Of the meeting was the selection
of q committee of rancheFs and others
to present an ultimatum 10 the Whlt.e
Salmon Telephone Company, and II Is
expected a demand for the abrogatlon
Of the Scent charge will be made, fail-
| ing in which will result IN the stor-
nation Of a company. Should a new
compapv be started. it would request
central connection with White Salmon,
and what the attitude would then be IS
| "A mere matter Of conjecture. A repre-
sentative Of the company states that
since its organization the line has nol
paid a dividend, nor been able to make
/ the improvements necessary for hrst-
class service. The 5-cent charge tor
ringing other eentrals than their own
was conceded to be the best way out Of
the matter. This, in way, results III
better service to patrons. 1t has been
suggested that the question be arbl-
trated. Several Husum ranchers have
had their phones removed.

P0RTLANDERS PLAN
BIG APPLE SHOW

A really great apple show, to be a
collection of exhibits from throughout
the West. is being planned as an an
nual event at Portland. Committees
are at work on the project ana it is
expected plan will be perfected within
short time
The Importance of the fruit industry
to the state is the basic idea of the
show. 1t is to encourage apple grow
ing and horticulture generally that
Portland business men and the com
mercial interests have joined in talk
ing the subject over to determine if
sufficient support can be had for an
annual exhibition. 1t is believed that
such an annual display will not only
do much to encourage the apple
grower already here but will attract
many others to this state.

New Game Licenses Next Year.

After the first of the year all game
licenses issued in the state will be uni
form. William l.. Finley, state game
warden, has prepared a blank form
that may be used for either hunting or
fishing, by resident of Oregon or a
nonresident. Each county in the state
will be given supply of blanks and
will be required to discard all old
forms. Heretofore nearly every eoun-
ty in the state has had a different
license blank.
On the back of the license will be
printed brief abstract of the game
laws and diagram showing the open
and closed season for all kinds of fish
and game. 1t is predicted that the
new system will prove a convenience
for the sportsmen as well as helpful to
the state game warden and county
officials.

Hood River, Oregon
Dear Sir have received your two
letters concerning labels put on the
boxes of apples shipped by US this
year.
am sending you by this mail sam
pies of the different labels that were
put on the respective qualities VIZ,
Extra Fancy Spitz, Fancy Spitz,
Choice Spitz. The Extra Fancy Spitz
is our own special label. Your name
doesn't appear on it at all We have
no special label for Fancy and Choice
so have used the stock labels, having
had them printed as the samples show.
Last year and this year are the only
times that we have put the labels on
at the orchard. What labels that have
been put on heretofore have been put
on after The apples were loaded in the
cars, which | think was once, from
four to six years ago
The foreman this morning looked
through everything in the packing
house Ton the farm for any labels
which gave your postottice address.
He has brought me four which | am
sending you and tells me he dldn' t
know that any such label existed as he
hadn't seen them before. find that
last summer hen we moved our office
that a lot of odds and nds-samples,
tickets, and some labels were put in
a box and sent out here. Any labels
that came out at that time were left
over from the time we first put label
on the box. A most there was but
handful of them. The women putting
the labels on the boxes this year must
have got hold of these labels and put
them on the boxes. gave no instruc-
tions at the packing house about la
bells, as | didn't know that we had any
such in our possession.
| remember that last year and this
year you instructed me to not have
your address appear on the label and
| reported to you and exhibited the
labels to you and they were labels upon
which your address did not appear.
did not think that there was any possi-
bility of anything different happening.
Our name and address appears on every
label as the grower of the apples.
The labels which had your postotlice
address on were printed by the litho-
graph company, can you remember
when that was? Last year and this
year the labels were printed in Salem.
feel chagrined to think that | so
positively asserted to you that your
address did not appear on any label. |
was sincere in my statement.
If that be treason make the most of
It. Yours truly,
