Schedule Of Meetings
By County Agricu|tuist

j Beginning November 1st, the
work of the Dawson County Agri-
culturist will be planned on diff
ferent basis. The past summer
has been spent in attending meet
ings' answering farm calls that
IIcame from all parts of the county
and in making general survey of
/ the general agricultural conditions
throughout the county. The late
ness of the season when the work
was started last spring, made it
impossible to arrange any very
definite program, and carry it out.
For the fall and winter work,
a definite schedule has been made
which will begin in the outlying
districts west of the Redwater
Valley. A day and night will be
spent in each community in which
there is school house, or a
farmers organization. In each
community in which the farmers
are interested enough to provide
a meeting place, either a school or
ranch house, granary, Oh other
building SET of sterioptican pic
lures will be shown of farm oper-
ations or methods, varieties of
hay and pasture crops, corn, The
pit silo, and other interesting
features of farm practice. These
meetings will not be Institutes, or
lectures, but will be given over to
practical discussions of farming
and stock raising that the people
of the community are interested
in, and of the experience of sue
cessful farmers in the county.
At.each meeting plans will be
- - - 4
considered for the work of the
county Agriculturist in each COM
munity for the remainder of the
winter and The following year.
The day following each meeting
will be spent in visiting farms in
each community.
Through the cooperation of
Miss Osborne, the County Super
intendent of schools, a number of
the teachers in different parts of
the county are making arrange
ments to put on short School pro-
grams of a Harvest Festival" or
Thanksgiving nature in addition.
The first series of meetings have
been scheduled as follows:
Nov, 1, jacobson Bros, ranch
on Taylor creek.
Nov, 2nd, Smoky Butte school
house, on Big Dry
Nov, 3rd, School house south
of Smoky Butte.

The face of Elwyn Gaines was Sc

THIS YEARS APPLE
CROP WILL BE SHORT

The northwestern apple crop this
wear will fall short of the 1914 output
which was approximately 1900 car
Ioads. This is indicated by the similar
ity of reports coming from the various
producing districts. They state thst
the bloom on the old trees is much less
than last year, but that trees coming
into bearing will have considerable
counteracting effect.
The Yakima district was the heavi-
est contributor TO northwestern ton
mage in 1914 with nearly 6, 600 carloads,
but the concensus of opinion now Is
that it will ship only so pei. cent oi
that tonnage this year. Many OF the
old trees will carry but 25 TO 40 per
cent of their last load if the bloom is a
true indicator. Even with new orch
ards coming:into. bearing 1t is not safe
TO estimate above 1900 carloads FOL
1915.
Wenatchee shipped $50 cars of ap.
pies druing the season just closed. It's
old trees show indisposition to bear
heavily, but not so much so as at YAK
ma. MANY new orchards will beai
their first substantial crop, especially
in the section Of the north, called the
up-river country, where IL is estimated
that 400 cars will be rolled as compared
with $50 last season.
,Jonathans are short at both WeHat'
chez and Yakima although the same
trees bore light crop last year. VINE
saps will be heavy again. NJ.
Spokane reports shortage an- esti
mates less than 400 cars.
Rogue River valley of southren Ore
gon had very light crop in 1914 or
account of drouth, and it is now feared
that there will be another shortage Of
water and crop. The present norma
prospect is for 1000 cars consisting Of
ZOO pears and 500 apes. However
unless weather conditions are fav0ra
BILE, this estimate will fall short of re
alization.
There are still many things that cal
happen to cut down the crop, but yer!
little to increase the above estimates
Hundreds of growers in some district
are fighting frost nightly. although thii
danger is now nearly past. In SOM
sections the battle with blight is seri
Gus and the issue problematic. Their,
will be more or less June drop. Win,
and hail storms may come to any or al
districts during the summer.
Several of the less important dis
tricts will have increased tonnage, bu
this is one more than Offset by tn
shortage in other sections.

INDIANA MANS CON-
FESSION CONFIRMED

City Marshal Carson has received
from William A. Mcllyaine, superin-
tendent OF police of Muncie, Ind, a
letter confirming the confession of Har-
ry G. Apple, who came to the jail week
before last and confessed to forgeries
committed a number of years ago in
Muncie, his home town. Apple was
brought to the notice of authorities
because of his peculiar conduct, neigh
bors having complained that his actions
denoted an unbalanced mind. he de-
clared to Officer Carson and Rev. W. b.
Young that he was worried over the
old crime ana made clean breast OF II
to them, saying that he was ready tC
return to Indiana and pay the penalty.
However, there is no warrant out fol-
the arrest of Apple, who will probably
return free and happy man to his ole
home.
The letter received by Marshal Car
son follows:

SEEKERS

In few short weeks the colleges OF
the country will turn out their hun
dreds of graduates. Those hundreds OF
seekers after knowledge will become
seekers in the great battle of life.
And it is a sad status Of affairs since
many of them do not know what they
want. It is unfortunate that in most
instances the ambitions that have
seized them lead into the big cities.
They look for career and fame among
the masses. And thus they overlook
the good things in life and fail to Sc
cure the quiet and content that may
have been theirs in the smaller com
munities of the land.
We have read with interest the fol-
lowing editorial in Golfers Weekly:
"a part of our regular reading is
the weekly Emporia Gazette. Every
issue starts off with passage from the
Bible, and the second thing in the pa.
per before us is two-stanza poem, OF
which the second reads:
Come home where Kansas lies under
the stars
Twinkling back beauty and joy:
Come and let homely love poultice your
scars,
Leave off your restless employ.
Come home where Summer winds bill.
low the wheat,
Where golden tides cover the sands;
Come-let your hearts longing hasten
your feet
And home love unfetter your hands.
Come where the sunfower eagerly
bends
A tawny frank face to the light:
So do our hearts seek the JOY OF ole
friends
Come home tonight.

Although the company's attorneys as
yet have not filed any complaints, from
their recent actions and assertions, it
is very probable that the Pacific Power

East Fork Irrigation District for the
purpose of determining the water rights
of the East Fork of Hood river.
Al the present time Judge Bradshaw
has under consideration testimony taken
before referee recently in a case of
