valley City, N. D., July 11.-This is
the fiftieth anniversary OF the organi-
zation Of Dakota territory and is old
settlers day at the Valley City chau-
tauqua. Hundreds of former resi-
dents of this section of the state are
back to take part in the celebration Of
the day. A splendid programme was
carried out. Among the speakers were
Gen. w. H. H Beadle, South Dakota's
grand old man; Gen. E. A. Williams OF
Bismarck; Geo. B. Winship of Grand
Forks and w. F. Cushing of Fargo.
The park Is proving most attractive
to everyone who visits it. Yesterday
and today 1t has been cool and de-
hghtful on the grounds and no annov-
ance was felt from the high winds
which prevailed. The Chautauoua
park Is proving the garden spot of this
sectlon OF the state for camping.
The valley City chautauqua is an
accomplished fact. The enthusiasm
aroused among local people is war
ranty that there will be a bigger and
better assembly next year. Scores
have visited the grounds who came as
skeptics and left as boosters. The
greatest marvel among local people is
that they nave lived here for so many
years and never discovered not uti-
ized this beautiful wooded park.
Financially the results of the first
three days sessions have been most
gratifying The advance ticket sale
was somewhat disappointing but the
cash gate receipts have been most
gratifying. Sundays cash gate re-
ceipts were about $40O and If the pace
OF the first three days Is maintained
the first assembly will not only pay
running expenses but will pay for the
year.

well as the instructions to the scouts

scout manual. They are a fine look

equipped and all Of good behavior.
They are attracting much attention
and many OF the younger boys look
on with envy and are emploring their
elders to allow them to become scouts

lines have characterized holiday week
on this market. There were 767 cat

sold at 1925. and hogs sold at SC. One
small lot Of lambs sold at ss.10 and
mixed sheep at S. Quality considered
the few steers that came on the mar

ARM BROKEN BY FALL
Mrs. S. j. Lovelace Injured On Her
Way to Church.

While on her way to church New
Years morning, Mrs. S. j. Lovelace,
of this city, fell and broke her right
arm just above the wrist. She was
walking somewhat hurriedly along
Main street, in company with her hus-
band, and when in front of the Dali
las Mercantile Company's store she
slipped and fell on the wet pavement.
Undaunted by the resulting pain, she
arose and started to continue on her
way to church, but had gone but a
few steps when she fell again. DR.. B.
H. McCallon was called and set the
fracture. She was conveyed to her
home on Mill street, near Jefferson,
where everything was done to make
her as comfortable as possible. Sun
day night was almost a sleepless one
for her, but this afternoon she was
resting easier.
Mrs. Lovelace has long been a resi-
dent of Dallas, and has many friends
both in the city and in Polk County,
who are extremely sorry to learn of
her misfortune.

Big DEMAND FOR TREES
INCREASED PLANTING OF FRUIT
LANDS in VALLEY.
Comice Pear Considered Better Yielder
Here Than In Other
Parts OF State.

The value of the western part of the
Willamette Valley as a fruit producing
section is becoming more and more ap-
preciated each year, and lands that a
few years ago were considered of no
| particular value are now being eagerly
sought. This is unusual in many ways,
but in none more practical and con-
vincing than that shown by the in
creased demand made upon the nurs-
cries for stock. From one point last
year the Lafayette Nursery Company
received orders for 5000 trees, while
from the same vicinity this season
their orders amounted to practically
$4,000 trees or five times that of the
preceding year, the demand being
principally for apples and pears In
addition to these thousands of small
them being Oregon Champion goose
berry and strawberry plants. The
grade of pear trees planted were those
of from two to three feet in height. On
account of the unusually heavy de-
mand for pear trees, and the limited
supply grown by the nurseries the past
season, the planters have had to use
the small grades in quantity. 1t was a
case of Hobson's choice, as they either
had to plant them or do without, un-
less they were fortunate enough to
have had their orders placed early. AS
result of this shortage, thousands of
pear trees which would have been put
out before this years planting season
closes will have to be re-ordered for
next year.
One Million Fruit Trees.
The published report of the sale in
London of 400 boxes of Comice pears
at $40 per box, has had stimulating
effect upon intending planters and the
demand for pear trees has increased
correspondence Referring to this
sale Bert Brooks, of the Lafayette
Nursery Company, says in a recent
letter to the Observer:
This is rather an encouraging re-
port to those interested in the culture
of pear orchards, and should be a
good inducement to those having good
pear lands to venture more into this
sonal investigation, that the Comice
pear is a splendid yielder in this vail
ley producing much more in propor-
ton to the size of the tree, than in
Southern Oregon. where it is consider
ed one of the standard sorts. We ex-
pect to have about 100000 pear trees
in variety to put upon the market DUR
ing the Fall and Winter season of
1911-12. In addition to, and includ-
ing this lot, we will have about 1,000,-
900 trees and plants to offer. If our
trade continues to increase in the fu-
ture, as it has in the past. we will re-
quire at least 200 acres for our nurs-
cry by another year. Our trade has
more than doubled the past season and
we are now utilizing about 85 acres
for nursery purposes. When it is TAX
en- into consideration that a good
stand of stock in the field will average
from 1000 to 10000 trees and plants,
1t will be realized that it means a con-
siderable quantity Of stock and work
galore"
