Mrs. G. II. Robbins, wife of West
Side orchardist. finds profit in raising
China pheasants, which are sold at
fancy prices to breeders in different
parts of the Northwest. Mrs. Robbins
shipped II young birds last week to B.
G. Bettendorff, of Beaverton.
Mrs. Robbins successfully reared
more than 100 China pheasants last
summer. Because of her larest broods
ran away this year, her total Of the
1916 season was cut to 40 young fowls.
Wild goose formed the chief course
at the Thanksgiving meal for many
Hood River people. The big honkers.
sold in the market for 81 each, made
an appetizing yet comparatively cheap
food.
The geese, killed in eastern Oregon
by Emmett Tompkins, were sold to To-
cal housewives in large numbers.
The members Of the Hood River
County Game Protective Association
will ask the 1917 legislature to amend
the state game laws in such wise as to
provide for Is day open season on
male China pheasants in Hood River
county. the season on China pheasants
has been permanently closed in the
county. and the birds have increased by
the hundreds. During the periods of
deep snow in the winter months the
local game association has spent SUBJ
stantial sums in purchasing grain for
the birds. A limit of three birds per
day will be asked for.
Action on the matter of local pheas-
ant shooting was taken at a meeting
called last week at the instance of h.
b. Van Duzer, president of the Oregon
Game League, the annual convention
Of which will be held in Portland.
Complying with Mr.. Van Duzer's re-
quest, the local club elected delegate
to the annual meeting. Alva. L. Day,
named to represent the Hood River or
ganization. was instructed to vote at
the approaching session for the future
protection of female pheasants and
against the practice of feeding ducks.
Word has come to the local game as
sociation that movement is under way
to devote larger percentage of the
state game fund toward the propaga-
tion of commercial fish fry at the Bon.
neville hatchery. The members of the
organization went on record at their
meeting in a strong protest against
such action.

pay their dollar, hoping that it will
be spent in restocking the streams with
game fish. They furthermore expect
that a portion of it will be used in get
ting these game fish fry to the head
waters OF the states streams. The
we'll stocked trout streams of Oregon
form great asset of the state, and
sportsmen are not gong to see the
means of maintaining them abolished. f"

us just be happy You are safe back
with me; all the hospital bills have
been paid, and the doctors bills, and
we are not in debt. Since this Is the
case can't you Just be at peace in mind
and body and believe that everything
is going smoothly"
A Happy Prospect
Certainly not" Agnes declared, "I
do not feel now as If 1 could ever be
such q wretch as to be vexed with you
no matter whatyou did-for I loveyou
so much and am SO grateful that you
have been spared to me"
"Thank you," Aunt Lucy said prim-
ly Even now she seemed almost
afraid to let her happiness and relief
show themselves very clearly: What
l want to ask Is about Mr.. Philip Hale.
Will you tell me about him and you? :?
All I know is that you two are fond
of each other"
Agnes smiled indulgently "That Is
not just what we call 1t, auntie, dear"
she said. I'VE love each other-that's
all. But 1t will be long while before
we can marry, so we say nothing to
outsiders about our engagement. Phil
has told his father about it. Nobody
but you and he knows of 1t. But,
auntie, you must says Phil after this
not Mr.. Philip Hale'-when you
are talking to me of him"
But why wait long time to be
married?" Miss Lucy inquired in sur
price. why not get married very
soon?"
A cloud crossed Agnes face and she
replied with an effort:
Because Aunt Lucy, will not mar
ry a man whose father would have to
support us. AS Philip is not yet earn
ing his own living, ! will not be his
wife-especially as his family would
all feel that he was marrying far be-
meath him. But let's be happy now
and forget uncomfortable things"
Although she spoke lightly. there
was n hot spot in her heart as she re-
membered that William Hale and his
wife were of another social world than
herself.

When aunt and niece were again

an anxious expression. The query
that had been trembling on her lips

longer.

ventured. II don't want to ask any
questions that you'd rather not an

He bent over picture on the front

"I have always found San Marco

reminiscently on his desk.
"I soy, who's this?" Mr.. Wall point
ed to line Just beneath the name of
the paper. "Robert O'Neil, Editor and
Proprietor" he read.
Manuel Gonzale gurgled softly some
where within, which was his cunning,
noncommittal way Of indicating mirth.
"Ah, my very virtuous managing edi.

Always they sleep I~til noon. In this
balmy climate it is easy to lie abed."
Again Manuel Gonzale gurgled.
MAY their sleep be dreamless," he
said. "And should our work of the
morning fail may the name of O'Neill
be the first to concern the police"
Wall laughed.
"a good idea" he remarked. He
looked at his watch. "Nine-6fteen.
The banbs ought to be open now"
Gonzale got to his feet. Carefully he
folded the page that had been lying on
his desk.

The two descended to the street. Op-
posite the Hotel de la Pax they parted.
The sleek little Spaniard went on alone
and mounted boldly those pretentious
steps. At the desk he informed the
clerk on duty that he must see Mr..

"But Mr.. Meyrick is very busy to-
