for the Ford automobile, passed
through town the latter part of last
week with car for DR.. E. E. Elmer.
Mr. Reery has been very successful
in placing automobiles in this county.
as he has machine that appeals to
the people on account of price and
the concentration of high power in
comparatively light vehicle. Mr. Beery
came over into this part of Okanogan
county from Waterville last fall dem
onstrating the merits of his machine
and taking orders for spring delivery,
and the first of last week left Water
vile with six cars for delivery in this
county. One was turned off at Okan-
ogan (the town., four at Loomis, DR..

and j. w. Graham being the lucky
ones, and one for DR.. Elmer. at Mol.
son. Some of the motors delivered
were touring cars and others. the two
passenger cars are known as Ford
Torpedo Mr.. Reery stated that he
would open shop in Oroville, anG
make this the distributing point for
Ford cars in northern Okanogan coun-
ty. AS Oroville is centrally located,
and easy of communication with the
surrounding country, Mr.. Beery will
make no mistake by establishing his
Headquarters here.

ENLARGED NURSERIES.

The nursery men are arranging to
meet the increasing demand for or
chard stock, which promises to be es-
pecially heavy next season. Dooley
P. Wheeler has put in 10000 apple tree
gratis, $4,000 more than last year, and
Jack Evans 10000. All of which
would indicate that land owners in
this vicinity expect to join in and make
the valley solid orchard. And that
is what will come about Within five
years for miles up and down the Ok
anOean valley will be a veritable Eden
With all kinds OF fruits represented
except the apple of discord. If those
OF us who have waited so long to see
this vast and fertile county-richly
fertile where the land can be cultivat-
ed----come to the front can only hold
out a few years longer we will see
our long deferred hopes realized. The
soil and climate adapted to the growth
and maturing of perfect fruit are here
Man has been backward making the
best of these opportunities Now that
man is showing dispotion to make
the best of conditions provided by ma
turr the delayed development is to
come about. The pity Of it is that man
didano get move on himself years
ago and make the start that is being
made today. Had he done so Oroville
now would be city of some magni-
tudc and the surrounding country
teen with happy and prosperous
husbandry.

REPUBLICAN, DELEGATES.

The republican mass meeting, called
by Precinct Committeeman Fred. J.
Fine Saturday night, for the purpose
of selecting five delegates to attend
the republican county convention to
be held at Okanogan Saturday. May a.,
was held in the town hall and was
quite well attended. While there were
a few LaFollette and Roosevelt ad-
herents present the large bulk of the
crov Il stood for the president. Every
thing passed off smoothly. as those
present were old republicans believ-
ing in the principles of the party.
Fred. j. Fine was chosen president
and J. W Gilmore secretary. A num-
per of names were placed in nomina-
ton for delegates and the following
were elected: DR.. c. p. House DR.. F.
S. Beale, w. E. SeXson, r. Butler and
Frank NJ Dallam. There was no put
up slate, but a free for all race par
tcipated in by only those entitled to
vote at republican primary. 1t
turned out that one of the delegates
chosen is mildly Roosevelt, Had his
leanings been known, notwithstand-
ing his popularity. he probably would
have failed of election. The full dele
cation will go to Okanogan tomorrow.
