OBITUARY
William P. ReayiS

William p. Reavis, whose death oc
Cured at st. Vincent's hospital in Port
land, Saturday, June z, was born il
Johnson county. Mo-, February %
1857. He resided there with his par
ents until 1877, when they crossed the
plains with a mule team. He was one
Of the first settlers in Wallowa county,
where he engaged in stock raising un.
til 1904. He then removed to Pendle-
ton and spent a year, coming the next
yearstOt Hood River county. Mr.. Reavis
lived here until 1911, having purchased
the Mcintosh place. In that year he
disposed of his property and moved to
Washougal, Wash. However, last win
ter he bought tract of land on the
West Side from Guignard and Rosiger,
and had thought of returning here to
make Fhis home again. Interment was
made in Riverside cemetery, Portland.
He was survived by his wife and
three children. The children are
Mrs. Berta Calvin. of Portland Mrs.
Gussie Raney and Miss Cressie Reavis,
of Washougal. Four brothers, two
sisters and his father also survive him.
The brothers are: T. A. Reavis, of
Hood River, G. S. Reavis, of Enter
prise. j. S. and Joe Reavis, of Walla

THE CHAUTAUQuA

The Chautauqua Association is for.
tunate in having secured C. N. Ravlir
to manage the performances of that
institution this year. Mr.. Ravlin not
only knows how to conduct this kind OF
business, but he does it. The success
of the chautauqua Of last year is due
TO a great extent to his energy and
persistent efforts. The Hood River
Chautauqua also attained such great
success last year because of the fact
that it was home product, because it
was different from the ehautauquas
in other parts Of the country. While
the novelty of this difference will wear
off to a great many of the home people,
it will be drawing card for those who
desire to visit the scenic district and
to become acquainted with its people.
New citizens will be attracted here and
the valley will thus benefit from the
events
And again the success of last years
chautauqua was due to the spontaneity
of its inception and naturalization.
From the time ii was first mentioned
until Mr.. Epping and his Gipsy stroll
ers sang their last song amid the APP
plause of the enchanted audience, ev-
erything went along with a vim.
Everybody was interested.
Many new attractions will be added
this year and the tent city will be
made more comfortable than that of
last year. Instead Of having to journey
over to Parkdale after the evening
performances those who are devotees
Of the art of Terpsichore. may dance
to their hearts content on the floor OF
the big open air pavilion. The cuisine
is to be made better. Instructive lee
lures on orchard problems and Domes-.
tic Science are to be given in the af-
ternoons. The chautauqua should be
and educational. But the
valley people should not let their inter
est lag.

New Jail Remains Empty

Since the new Jail addition here has
been completed, despite the fact that
many predicted siege of petty crime
at the time when the valley was full
of strawberry pickers, power develop
mont iaborers and the men brought
here to work on the streets. the bastile
has not been the lodging place of sin
gle prisoner. Neither the city nor the
county has had prisoner for over a
month. The people here picking straw
berries, as we'll as the men working OIL
the street are composed of peaceable,
industrious lot, who have never given
the local peace officers any great
worry,
The new prison is a combined city
and county affair. Formerly local
county prisoners were incarcerated in
the Wasco county prison at The Dalles.

RECIPROCAL FISH LAWS

Why not have Reciprocity" fishing
laws in the northwestern states, as
suggested by Master Fish Warden
Clanton last week. Conditions are very
similar in the game sections Of all of
these countries. The inhabitants of
the states are all great travellers, and
are fond of going from one mountain
Gus district to another to try their luck
in some new trout retreat. The west
erH people fish and hunt, too, for pleas
ure. They do not go to the woods in
the fall for the purpose of killing as
many bucks as possible in order to get
their heads that they may be mounted
and carried back home. as trophies. an
evidence that places the hunter for all
time on the sublimest pedestal.
The eastern hunter, who gets off once
or twice in life time TO establish his
brputation as shooter of big game,
delights in this kind of work. 1t is
human nature, and perhaps we should
not blame him, but it would be well
enough 60 curb his nature TO slay in
wholesale lots by placing his bag limit
to q single buck.
0regon's game and fish law is such
as might invite reciprocity on the part
of her neighbors; for they are given
the same privileges that the oregonisu
himself has. Washington's new law
seems a retaliation against Oregon s
old law. Perhaps, if the solons at
Olympia had known that the Oregon
legislature was going to enact law
such as was passed, they would have
been less rigid in their provisions di-
reeted at non-residents.

added to the hens and pigs, COW.
"Unfortunate is the man. whether MS
land costs him 81 600 or $40 an acre, =
said Prof. Smith, the 0.-W. K. q NJ
expert. at Parkdale last week, ii he
does not possess a COW and some hens. -
We think the professor is right.
Prof. Smith is telling the oregon
ranchers. famers and apple growers
these things because it is the opinion
that. and one not based on theory but
proven by plenty of demonstrations,
those communities enjoy the greatest
and most constant prosperity, where
the residents not only do not buy their
eggs and butter and pigmeat, but have
a bit TO sell. The big railroad systems
of the country know very well that a
general prosperity will benefit them.
A railroad passing through lean land
where the inhabitants are not provl-
dent, is not going to prosper like that
system penetrating lands where tie
farmers, whose products roll over their
rails, are thrifty and have something
laid away for rainy day.
OF course, the man who IS well iNed'
as the expression goes, doesn't need
any COW or chickens or even a pig, to
grunt for his pleasure. If he is living
in the country, in the woods or in the
city, he is able to purchase all OF these
products. He is merely missing the
Joys of country life, if he fails to have
poultry and animals. But the man who
is on a ranch, and the ranch only partly
paid for, needs to realize the necessity
of having cows and hens and chickens.
They will help clear the debt from his
home.

THE DAY OF INVESTIGATIONS

Every dog has his day, as does every
fad and fancy. There are fads in
wearing apparel, fads in the enuncia-
tion of words, fads in methods of spell
ing the selfsame words. fads in eating.
fads in drinking and fsds in the man
ner men should take their rest. For
merly they thought the sleeping room
must be tightly closed. but now the
tendency is to get beneath the blue sky
in the very out of doors. But this has
nothing to do with the present day fad
of making Investigations by Legislators
and officials, who are preparing to pass
laws for the social welfare of the coun-
try. Every kind of an Investigation
that congressman or an assemblyman
with fertile brain can devise is now
being made. There are SO many of
them that we ordinary citizens who try
to follow them are often puzzled, anC
yet we think they will tend to have 1
wholesome effect in the end.
Some of the first named fads in tn,
above paragraph are so absurd as t
cause man profanity to even thin
about them. We have no doubt tina
the Investigations of vice commission
and every other kind of cOmmissio
imaginable has caused profanity, too
to the victim OF the probe. But a
long as the Investigations are for III
puprose of giving information. whereof
they can legislate intelligently, to tho.
who make the laws Of the land, the
are to be commended. Perhaps v
have to submit to few fareic
probes, in order to enjoy the privilel
of the beneficial Investigations.

Big Corn Acreage in the Valley

There will be the largest corn acre
age in the valley this year ever plant
ed. The free distribution of seed corn
by the O.-W. r. & N. Co. has been
very effective and in all districts one
may now see cornhelds. The seed is
50 grown as to be adapted to this coun-
try. and large yield is expected. In
past years a number of orchardists
have secured seed corn from Idaho,
from which very fine quality of grain
has been raised.
