While the attendance at the Tono-
pah meeting of the Nevada Press as
ISOLATION, held last Monday, was not
as large as had been hoped for 1t
compared favorably with the numbers
present at previous gatherings. Al
though nine members constitute a
quorum, there were two more than
that number actually present or in
the vicinity where they could be
got at
Sunday night w. D. Forster, super
intendent of the Tonopah & Goldfield
railroad, run his private car from
Goldfield to Nina, meeting Southern
Pacific No. "a, which had been desig-
mated as the official train of the
editors. He was accompanied by A.
C. White, editor of the Goldfield
Tribune, who made the trip to ex-
tend the hand of welcome to his con-
temporaries, and several railway of
fcials. During the run to Tonopah
| breakfast was served in the car.
| Arriving at Tonopah, the visitors
were met by President Williams, of
the association, who had gone down
the previous morning, and Col. Bill
Booth, fighting editor of the Tonopah
Bonanza, who had constituted himself
reception committee on arrangements
and various other committees, the du-
ties of all of which were performed
in a Enthusiastically competent
manner.
Alighting at the station, the visitor
is impressed with the fact that Tono-
pah is typical mining camp. The
streets present rather an irregular
appearance at this point, usual in
mining camps, with shacks stuck
around in alleys, and business build
ings varying from one-story wooden
affairs to the more elaborate plate
glass fronts AS one ascends the hill,
however, the business blocks improve,
until at the corner of Main street and
Brougher avenue, the business center
of the town, five-story, modern build
ings may be seen.
Editorial headquarters were estab-
lished at the Mizpah, one of the lead
ing hotels of the coast and one of
which any city might be proud,
Tonopah's Tree.
AS is usual in mining camps, there
is very little green in the city, there
being almost an entire absence of
grass, shrubbery and trees. The writ
err, who is secretary of the associa-
ton, remained at the hotel until it
was nearly time for the meeting to
convene, when he was called up and
, told to hurry up and come to the
residence of ]. c. Martin, where the
session was to be held. Inquiring
where that was situated, he was told
to ask at the Bonanza office Arriv-
ing at the printery, he was met by
Mr. Martin, who escorted him to
the front door, and, pointing up
. the street, chestily remarked: See
, that large tree up there, on the
left hand side of the street? That
stands directly in front OF my house. "
We afterwards learned that this is
the only tree in that section of Nye
county and is matter of consider
, able pride, ranking locally with
George Washington's cherry tree, the
tree under the spreading branches OF
which Pemberton capitulated to
Grant during the civil war. In the

mated place. however, we found that
whatever the premises might lack in

for in hospitality. The editors we're

OUT OF SEASON

j. A. Spencer has the thanks of ye
editor for a box of strawberries de-
livered Saturday. The fruit was as
handsome in appearance and as pleas
ing to the palate as any strawberries
ripening in the spring of the year.
Strawberries are never out of season
at the Cozy Corner orchard, Mr..
Spencer's home place, opposite the
creamery, only when snow is on the
ground. Mr.. Spencer has been ex-
perimenting with several varieties of
everbearing strawberry plants, that
yield fruit throughout the summer and
up to the time of heavy frost in the
late fall. The vines are very prolific,
and the ripe berry, the green berry
and the blossoms are to be seen on the
plants at the same time during the
long bearing period. Mr.. Spencer is
gradually increasing his beds, COM
mencing with a few plants two years
ago, and by another year the yield will
be so heavy that he will be able to
keep the local market well supplied.
Strawberries out of season command
Il good price, they are fruit that can
always find a ready sale, and in time
MIR. Spencer should find the fruit a
source of handsome income. 1t was
sure a pleasant experience to be able
to eat strawberries at this season of
the year

OF INTEREST TO oRCHARDlSTS

County Agriculturist J. a. Hughes is
arranging a blight demonstration trip
to Penticton for the orchardists of Okla
hogan valley. The party will leave Oro
vile at a. m. on Saturday morning of
August the Goth, returning the next
evening Every owner of an automobile
in the valley is asked to go on this trip.
and to take as many orchardists with
him as is possible.
At the present time there is no blight
in the Okanogan valley, but in the 1900
acres of orchard in the Penticton coun-
try is has played havoc for the last two
years and many thousands of dollars of
damage has been done by this disease in
that section This dreaded trouble has
been a menace to the fruit men in the
Wenatchee country, just south of us. for
several years, while the damage done this
year in the Yakima and Spokane counties
is estimated at nearly two million dol
lars.
The Okanogan county bids to become
one of the greatest fruit sections in the
world, and every means possible must
he availed to prevent this most destruc-
tive disease from obtaining foothold in
the county.
Few of the orchardists are able to rec
ognize it. or are familiar with the meth
ods of fighting it.
BY taking this trip INTO the heart of
the blight infested country where a great
deal of damage has been done, and where
the Canadian government is fighting It,,
many valuable object lessons can be
learned, and the orchardists will be en-
abled to be on the lookout and to i'm
mediately stop it where it appears in
their orchards.
BY lending their automobiles to this
trip. the owners of the cars will be do
ing the greatest of good to the county.
Ii has been suggested that men taking
this defray the expenses of running the
cars in which they travel. This is fair
and every one will be glad to do this.
The roads from Oroville to Penticton'
which is fifty miles north, are splendid
and the scenery indispensable. 1t is
really an education in itself to see what
wonderful roads are to be found in the
Canadian country just north of us.
