FORTY VARIETIES OF FRUIT

on this tree until now he has thirty
different kinds of apples, 16 of them
winter apples and 9 different kinds
of pears. Mr.. Scroggs states that
he has the earliest of apples on this
tree as well as the latest, apples
ranging in color from bright yellow
to dark red, and apples ranging in
taste from the sourest to the sweet

all the fruit in his own orchard and
some from his neighbors' orchards.

TO DAM COLUMBIA RIVER
FEASIBLE AND PRACTICAL

The feasibility of constructing a
dam in the Columbia river at the
head of the Grand Coulee has been
declared practical by probably the
greatest living authority on dams, A.
P. Davis, director and chief engi-
neer of the u. S. reclamation SER
vice. If such dam is constructed
the waters of the Columbia could be
utilized for retaining desert lands
in Grant county and furnish almost
unlimited powed for electrical pur-
poses. Such dam would make the
Columbia navigable for $50 miles,
submerging otherwise impossible
barriers such as Kettle falls, Little
Dalles and Grand Rapids.
water enough could be pumped
from the dam into the Grand Coulee
to irrigate 100000 acres by gravity
from the Coulee. Enough surplus
power would be left out of the sum-
mer flow to irrigate 100000 acres
additional above the canals and along
the Columbia. In the winter this
power could be used to heat the
homes of the people of the state.
There would be 100000 steady
horsepower utilizable for electric pur-
poses in central Washington. This
power could be sold for SO per H. P.
per annum. The cost Of the dam,
pumping, main canal and distribu-
ton on. the land would still be less
than irrigation from any other,
source"

bearing for years. The fruits range
in size from the smallest crab to the
20 ounce Pippin. Crab apples and
ounce also grow on the tree as well
as a gooseberry bush. Mr.. Scroggs
expects to keep on grating the
gooseberry bush on the tree until he
gets it to bearing.
Nh. Scroggs has several trees
bearing two, three and four kinds of
fruit One peach tree has two crops
of peaches, early and late. He also
has prune tree bearing cherries
and plums as we'll as prunes.
A neighbor of his has pears ON
plum tree, thing that nurserymen
claim to be impossible. He also.
states that about three miles from
.Colville is thorn bush with pears
on it.
Mr.. Scroggs had four years ex-'
perience as a nurseryman before he
started grating on his novelty tree,
as he calls it. He cuts the scions

HOW TOWN OF MARCUS
WAS GIVEN IT'S NAME


Benjamin Burgunder of Colfax,
president of the Inland Empire Pho
neer association, tells the following
story of the founding and naming of
the town of Marcus, correcting some
recently published history:
The British boundary survey, in
command of Colonel Hawkins, Brit
ish officer, built the first buildings
there in the winter of 1859-60, and
wintered while running the 49th par
allel in the winter of 1861 so. In the
spring of 1862 they finished the sur
vey and left for England, leaving
the buildings in charge of a man
named George Fields. In the sum-
mer of 1862 he sold the buildings to
A. w. Compton, a partner in the
D. H. Ferguson company of Colville,
Mr.. Compton had store on what
was known as the John Probell place,
a mile from his new purchase, and
moved his stock to that location in
the summer of 1862.
Mr.. Burgunder and Marcus Open
heimer crossed the plains together
in the summer of 1862, and in Octo-
Der of that year Oppenheimer was
employed by the D. H. Ferguson
company as a clerk to assist Mr.
Compton, and became a resident OF
the place which was later to bear
his name. Mr.. Oppenheimer left the
employ of the Ferguson company
and went into business for himself
down the Columbia on the present
site of Daisy; Wash.
What is now Marcus was called Co
lumbia City when Mr.. Burgunder
first arrived there in December, 1868,
but was better known as the British
boundary survey barracks. During
the summer of 1864 man by the
name of Washington Hall surveyed
the town site for Mr.. Compton, who
called it Dayton after his home town
of Dayton, Ohio. Mr.. Hall took sew
eral lots in the town as pay for the
work of surveying.
In the summer of 1866 Mr.. Hall
sold those lots to w. V. Brown,
partner of w. P. Winans. Mr. Brown
was running store on the Probell
place, formerly occupied by Mr..
Compton, but moved his stock to
the new location, the name of which
had again been changed and called
Whites landing, in honor of Captain
Len White, who built and ran the
steamer Forty-nine, the first steam
er on the upper Columbia.
In 1865 Marcus Oppenheimer filed
a domestic on the land occupied by
the TOWNSHIP, and during the time
when the late Charles S. Voorhees,
represented Washington territory in
congress he asked Mr.. Voorhees, to
have a, postoffice established there.
The postmaster general asked Mr..
Voorhees, what the new postoffice
should be called, and he said "Call it
Marcus" Persons unfamiliar with
the early history of the country nat
urally conclude that the place was
named for the pioneer missionary,
Marcus Whitman, but Mr.. Burgun--
der's story of the early history Of
the place is the true one.
The old Hudson Bay fort was a
mile down the river, with Angus
Mcdonald as factor. Every year

Irregular Changes
I'm Cotton Market:
Slight Net Gain
Persistency of Buying for
European Account One of
Strong Features: Advance
in Spot Price to %. zoe

There We're irregular fluctuations in
.he cotton market yesterday. A strong
leactionary sentiment seemed to pre-
vail around the ring at the start, owing
to the eUtent of recent advances and
the failure OF the news from the goods
trade to show any improvement.
After selling off to 2146c early, how
ever, December contracts advanced to
22.70c, making new high ground for
TIE movement owing to a continued
foreign demand, rains in the belt and
the continued absence of Southern
hedge selling. Recent sellers were
among the most active buyers on this
r&lly. but the market met increased
offerings from the South in the later
trading, and December closed at 22I5c..
or within 10 points of Mondays final
quotation. The general list closed
barely steady, net unchanged to 40
points higher. generally, 10 to 20 points
above the close Of the previous day.
The persistency of the demand from
brokers with Liverpool and other for
elgn connections came in for a good
Ceal of comment. Part of this demand
has been attributed to the undoing OF
old arbitragc business, but the fact
that the buying has continued after
the close of the English market was
taken by some traders AS indicating
that manufacturers abroad were hedg-
ing some of their forward needs. While
ledge selling was q little more active
here late in the day, Southern spot
markets, as officially reported. made a
generally firm showing. with prices un-
changed to l25 points higher. Quota
tons for middling cotton now range
iron PIC to 22.o0c. compared with
22,l5c, the closing price of December
contracts in the local market.

Sharp Wheat Rise
On Export Buying:
Offerings Smaller
More Evidence of Farmers
Holding Movement Tends
to Stimulate Short Cover
ing and lOc Gain Is Made

Active export buying caused sharp
rpturn IN the wheat market and prices
showed gains for the day Of about 10
Ccrts q bushel. The demand came prin
clrally from Belgium, which buys on
Tuesdays and Fridays of each week.
a,4d the volume OF purchases was some
what larger than usual
There was also more or less buying
by some Of the other Continental
countries. and total sales for the day
" ere estimated at 100000 bushels.
Country offers were smaller and this
scrved to stimulate the belief that
farmers are attempting to carry out
their holding movement which was
scheduled to start on Monday.
The market was undoubtedly in
frmer technical position as a result
of the recent sharp decline. and when
shorts attempted to cover they found
t necessary to bid the market up
rapidly to a point where stop loss
orders were encountered.
Receipts were again heavy in Can
rdia and continued offerings from that
country served to hold the December
position in Minneapolis at discount,
while In Chicago the near position was
seSen cents over March.

Corn Sells Higher
On Export Demand

Importers were also seeking corn
ard sales were estimated at about
100000 bushels, principally to Holland
and German. This demand, as well as
the strength IN wheat, caused active
covering and prices closed firm with
net gains Of , to , -2c.
Chicago reported that about 100000
bushels had been loaded on steamers
there for sh pment to Eastern lake
ports and this was thought to repre-
sent sales made abroad. The stats
teal position, however, was still con
sidsrcd against values. especially as
new corn win soon be on the market

the trade was not hopeful of any

Although the demand for refined

The better inquiry for refined is at

that Cuban holders would not force Of
