APPLE MEN MEET,
Decision on Trade Name to be Made
this Week.

| The question Of whether a trade
name for advertising apples of North
Central Washington shall be adopted
in lieu of Eat Wenatchee Apples, Inc,
or, in case trade name is not substi-
tuted, whether those who signed sup
port for the advertising campaign
conditionally will support the CAM
paign Is to be decided this week.
This was determined at meeting
of representative apple men held at
Omak Wednesday. Those present at
the meeting were John Peterson and
w. H. Dickson, Omak; J. w. Forsyth,
Okanogan; M. c. Seelye, Tonasket. and
W. A, CRUDE. Oroville.
MIR. Peterson announced that prac-
tically all Of the required acreage for
financing the campaign has been sign
ed up and that from information COM
ing to him most of the signers, outside
OF OkanOgan county, have no objection
to the present name. The conclusion
was that Eat Wenatchee Apples, Inc
is the name that will be used in spite
of what action may be taken by those
growers In this territory who signed
conditional pledges to support the
campaign.
The growers of the Omak district
will meet this evening to vote on
trade name and also on the question
of staying with the proposal IL the
name they favor is not adopted
Besides the name Northern Light"
previously suggested, another I'VE E
Tenn" was submitted Wednesday, This
suggestion came from Clifford An
dersOn of OrOville.

Last Friday one Of the heaviest
winds that has been experienced in
this locality for a year prevailed for
some hours, filling the smoke-ladened
atmosphere with a cloud of real estate
until the nearest hills were shut out
. from view. AS several gentle growls
of thunder accompanied the stiff
zephyr everybody looked for an cleo
trio storm and down pour OF rain,
but the wind at last tanned down with
out the appearance of moisture. 1t
looks now as though there Is a slim
chance for rain until next September.

PROFITABLE BERRY CROP.

Among the largest and choicest
strawberries that have been marketed
in Oroville this season were the ones
that came from Frank Polak's place,
situated on the west side of the Sim
ilkameen river, opposite town. Mr.
Polak has half an acre in berries, and
he has demonstrated this year that the
land under the irrigation system Is
ideal for the growing of that luscious
berry, and that it is profitable crop
Friday he picked the last Of his ber-
ries and was able to balance up the
yield for the season. From his patch
he picked 80 crates of berries and
/, 100 pounds that were shipped to the
jam factory in buckets And this is
anything but favorable year for ber-
ries

signed to some particular part of this
routine work. In addition they will
practice signalling and life saving,
and make excursions into the forest,

WHERE THINGS ARE MOVING.

Omak is to have a new modern 80
room hotel, and there is no town IN
the county in greater need Of hotel
than Omak. Recently We had occasion
to pass through that thriving place,
in the very heart Of the government
irrigation project, and we were struck
by the number Of Improvements that
have taken place this year. On the
main street substantial business build
ings, brick, concrete and tile, were
under way and new residences were
springing up in every direction. In
another year or two there will be
much building on the east side of the
river. where large number of lots
on the government plat have been
sold. Should the apple crop continue
large, with fair prices for the output,
in few years Omak will be the larg-
est town in the county If the same
spirit of progress continues.

It was encouraging to note the Keen
interest taken by the stockholders in
the annual meeting Of the .Oroville-
Okanogan Oil company held here
Monday. There was a large attend
ance at the meeting and officers were
chosen in whom everybody has con-
fidence. AS recognition of the earnest
and untiring work of their secretary
treasurer a vote of thanks was tend
cred to S. B. Gierde, who has held
that office since the organization OF
the company. Mr.. Gjerde feels conf
dent that the company holds some OF
the most promising land in the Cat
creek oil district, and 1t is owing
largely to his exertions that the COM
pany has been able to at last place a
drill upon the property and commence
sinking we'll. If oil is struck, and it
would appear that the chances are de-
cidedly favorable that 1t will be If the
we'll is continued down, those who
will benefit will owe their good for
tune largely to Mr.. Gjerde.
