This paper stated last week tbot
- H. staten the whirlwind packer
was hacking from "unsorted apples "
when 1t should have read "ungraded
'ppies' Ihls is distinction and
quite difference. The apples are
sorted at the orchard before heinz
sent to the packer for grading. And
thls correction does not lessen the
lact that Mr.. Staten is a cracker,ack
packer, with few in his class.
W. II. Crandall, former resident
OF oroville but for the past wear not
oe'lnltely located at any one place
according to his declaration. dropped
INTO Oroville on a visit over his old
stamping ground for few days dur
ing the past week. Because he was
mere at the time it must not be- i'm
agmed that he was in any way re-
srohsible for the excitement that gave
the public something to talk about
Sunday morning.
NO one knows what the land under
the West Okanogan Valley Irrigation
system can produce until they expert
ment and learn by experience. C. j.
st. Hill has been shipping tomatoes
10 the market during the past several
weeks, and a shipment of 20 boxes
Monday finished up 1000 boxes that
he gathered from a single acre this
season. Any heavier yield than that
1t would seem to us would strain the |
soil and unfit it for further cultiva-
ton.
Preventatives against the influenza
are as numerous as cures for the
rheumatism, and we trust more efica-
tious. 1t is said teaspoonful Of olive
oil three times a day, and some of |
the oil rubbed into the nostrils Is a |
deterrent, and that gargling with salt |
water and washing the mouth with |
listerine are good precautions. 1t is
worth while trying any or all of these
things as they are simple. and this
is case where an ounce of preventa-
tive is better than a pound of cure.
l.. w. Phillips, manager of the
Woodbury. Lumber company, was
among those called to appear at Ok
anogan on the 23d to be indicted into
the service. This last call is hitting
Oroville hard. as it takes out of the
town some of the most active and de-
pendable young business men of the
place. One of these is Mr.. Phillips,
who is popular among all classes. a
genial and most likeable young man.
A few more such hits and the Com
mercia club will be shot all to pieces.
Merle Gillespie, son of Dave Gill
espie of the Brewster Herald, is
chip off the old block, and Dave
should feel proud of him. He was
selected by the doctors in the army
to give part of his blood in trans
fusion for badly wounded man.
Merle hesitated not a second and un-
derwent the trial. This is the stun
that makes soldiers, and Dave has
three of them in the army, two in
France and one in Russia. You can
bet these boys will deliver the goods
