IMPROVING OLD BUILDING.

H. w. Bragg has had force OF
carpenters making over the old black
smith shop adjoining his former Of
flee and feed warehouse on the west.
1t is the intention to put in a glass
front, install shelving and make the
building as good as new. 1t was Mr.
Bragg's intention to rent the building
but since fire has deprived him OF ms
old place of business, he will occupy
the new premises when the work IN
hand is completed. 1t may be ADDED
as an item of local history, that the
building is the first that was erected
nm the north side of the railroad
track. with the exception OF the TOWN.

OROVILLE LOSES LIVE CITIZEN

Sunday Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Bailey,
their daughter, Miss Marjorie, and
young son. Mike, accompanied by Carl
Schultz, left Oroville by auto to seek
a new location. Mr. Bailey goes forth
on this pilgrimage with an open mind,
with no definite goal in sight, and
ready to set his stakes wherever he
strikes place that presents sufficient
attraction in the way Of present
growth and future prospects. In a
modest way Mr.. Bailey is playing the
role of a Jason entering upon the
great adventure Of seeking the golden
fleece, but We trust he will not be
sheared himself while on his quest.
In the departure of Mr.. Bailey,
Oroville loses a live citizen and the
county an old pioneer, for Mr.. Bailey
has made his home in Okanogan coun-
ty for many years. In early days he

the iloor OF the Columbia and Olo
hogan valleys is far lower than tha,
altitude. In fact. only the higher peaks
IN this territory extend to such
heights. Consequently, while there arc
great quantities of wild gooseberrv
ana currant plants throughout this ra-
eioh, the five-needle pines are so far
apart that it may prove that blister
rust cannot travel through this conn.
try to the Idaho white pine belt
In western Washington the white
pine timber grows at much lower al
titudes and the wild currants and
gooseberries are much more numer.
Gus, as are also the cultivated plants
The English black currant has nrovad
TO be the most susceptible host to the
blister rust and the State Of Washing
ton authorities have ordered the com
plete destruction of this plant
throughout the region west of the Cas-
cade mountains.
In addition to the work that is be-
ing carried on here, one man is COW
ering the country from northern Cal
ifornia through Oregon and by fall
VIII come north to the Columbia
river. Four men are examining black
currants for infection in the Ellens-
burg and Yakima districts and will
work east to Spokane. And much more
intensive work is being carried on in
Western Washington in an effort to
locate the disease in that region. So
far no white pine blister rust has
been found in this state east of the
Cascade range.
In its efforts to control and check
the progress of this destructive dis
ease, the federal government is re-
ceiving the cooperation of the sew
eral state authorities and also for
estry officials Of Canada.
The Importance of this work can
be appreciated when it is considered
that the standing western white pine
of Idaho and the sugar pine Of Cali
fornia ready for cutting is conserva-
lively valued at over 100000, 900.
while the value of the future growth
of this species of timber is practically
beyond estimate.

APPLE CROP SHOWS INCREASE.
Oroville VIII Ship 81 More Cars This

Thirty -one more car loads of apples

year than in 1921, according to the
August 1st estimate that s. P. Scott,
deputy district horticultural inspect
or, will report to F. c. Nielsen, dis
trict inspector at Wenatchee. In
spector Scott estimates that the total
shipments from Okanogan county
will show an increase of approximate

all told. OF this total he figures Oro-

A series of fires near the Henry
Bahrs place on Ellemeham mountain,
starting last week and continuing for
several days threatened large area
on the mountain and compelled the
whole community of farmers to aban-
don their work and join fighting the
spreading flames, several times.
The belief is general on Ellemeham
that the fires were started with ma
licious intent and Feeling is running
high among the ranchers, There is
strong talk Of drastic action if there
is repetition of the fires and de-
mand is being made that the authori-

One night, in the explorers tent, near the excavations, this inscrutable creature walked in on Rodman. No one knew how he got into the tent or where he came from.
 Gionanni told about it. The tent flap simply opened, and the big Orien- tai appeared. He had something under his arm rolled up in a prayer carpet He gave no attention to Gio- vanni but he salaamed like a coolie to the little American.

 And hassduatted down on the dirty floor by Rodman's camp stool.
 The two men spent the remainder of the night looking at the present that the creature brought Rodman in his prayer carpet. They wanted to. know where the Oriental got it, and that's how the story came out
 He was something, searcher seems our nearest English word to it-in the great Shan Monastry on the southeastern plateau of the Gobi. He was looking for Rodman because he had the light-here was another word that the two men could find no term in any modern language to translate: a little flame was the lateral meaning.
 The present was from the treasure room of the monastry; the very car pet around it, Giovanni said, was worth twenty thousand lire. There was another thing that came out in the talk that Giovanni afterward re- called. Rodman was to accept the present and the man who brought it to him. The Oriental would protect him, in every way, in every direction, from things visible and invisible. He made quite speech about 1t. But, there was one thing from which he could not protect him.
