Letter from "The Boy

We have arrived All feeling pretty
good but looking like the dickens. We
arrived at Camp Greene, this morning
| Sunday, 16th) about o'clock and
have been busy all day getting our
camp in shape. We are guartered in
one of the base hospital buildings.
There are at least 40 hospital build
ings in this camp. They are all built
alike. A long frame building, such
as the buildings at the mill, made of
rough lumber, with tar paper roof.
They are about 40 feet wide and four
or five times as long. For the present
we are acting in the capacity of the
base hospital, but later will be trans
ferred to another part of the camp
with the field hospitals. At present
there are only three outfits in camp.
A regiment of Wymoning boys, COM
pany of Oregon engineers and our
company.
Camp Green is an immense camp.
One end of the camp is a short dis
tance from the railroad where we got
off the train, and our camp is about
four miles from the railroad. How
long the camp is the other way l don't
know, but there are buildings every
where. The grounds are fairly well
wooded, with evergreens and other
trees, including large oak trees.
The camp is located in a very large
cotton field, and the cotton has not
yet been picked. In Charlotte it is
stated there are 81 Presbyterian
churches.
We were turned loose in KansasCity
for three hours Thursday, leaving
here about II o'clock over the Wa
bash route for St. Louis. We arrived
1t st Louis at 9 the next morning and
eft few minutes later on a train
or Louisville, KY, over the Hender-
on route. In leaving st. Louis we
'assed through long tunnel. Most
ii the windows of the cars were up
vhen we struck the tunnel and the
ar was filled with gas before we !,
ould close them. l thought / would :
uffocate before We got out out OF !,
he tunnel. In going from St. Louis to
ouiseville we passed through four
tates, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana and .
.entucky. We left Louisville over the =
hesapeake & Ohio for somehow in
irginia, where we were tranferred
} the Southern road which brought US \ \
, Camp Greene. On the C. & o. we

ID fine time. At every town in G
ennessee and Virginia there was a
G crowd at the depot to welcome US,
Id also at three or four towns we r
opped for from a half to an hour
ne people gave US candy, cigars, and
yarcttes, and at Kingsport, Va, we
ID ice cream and cake. In the after K
on we stopped along river and all M

We passed through the Blue Ridge co

The Fruit Union has its apple
grader in operation. 1t is a simple
but novel machine and reminds one
of the machine used in throwing the
old fashioned glass targets for trap
shooting. The apples are conveyed
on endless chains to three pockets"
into which they drop one at time,
which automatically throw the apples
between canvas partitions and from
there roll into boxes. The weight of
the apple regulates the distance of
the throw. The Fruit Association
has ordered a grader and expect it
here this week.

PRUNES 500
A TON NET
First Car from Frozen Dog Sells at
Fancy Prices

One of the first car of prunes ship
ped from Emmett came from the
Frozen Dog Ranch orchards. 1t solo
in Detroit for S1.35 crate gross and
netted the grower $50 a ton. The
prunes were packed in peach crates.
Prices for fruit of all kinds show an
upward tendency. R. B. Shaw, man
ager of the Fruit association, predicts
that prunes and peaches will average
$40 ton, and aples from $40 to $50.

The former Clint Martin orcba,

The former Clint Martin orchard on
the bench, now owned by the Bank
of Emmett, will produce between
5000 and 5000 boxes of apples, and
they are very fine. 1t is one of the
unfortunate turns of the wheels of
fate that Mr.. Martin was forced by
circumstances to give up his fine farm
just when one crop would have put
him on Easy street The apples will
net the bank more than $4,000.
