VOL. mo No. 15 Everett, Waslfintfon. •JBo The OQEJRIER'.— I have been doiug so much •running araund and Visiting that I ibad forgotten almost to write another letter to the neaders of the paper. .Last week we spent at Sumner, aad enjoyed the time there very mvch every minute. The fveather has been delightful, only raining one day so far. .The PayalLup Valley, at -this time is certainly beautiful. The or chards are laden with blossoms and the fruit crop promises to be large. Visited. Tacoma aud met several old time friends from Jamestown and all of them are doing well. E. J. Guptill form* erly of Carrington has purchased 10 acres of fruit land at Sumner and is now building a nice house and is getting ready to live an easy life. This country is so different than Nor!h Dakota. Here people live easily and quiet ly while there we live a stren uous, get their way, much more to my liking. We visited Seat tle yesterday and then went to Everett where my brother Frank lives and will remain here for a few days after which we shall drop of at North Yakima for a brief visit with Rev. H. P. James and then for home and business. Everett is a bustling place, and is enjoying a "boom." Lots a mile or two in the woods are sell ing for prices that are away up and out of reason. The growth of this town depends on Jim Hill and everybody knows that lie does not tell of his intentions. HoVever the town is a bustling city and Mr. Hill is spending a vast amount of money in im provements, such as large docks, railroad yards, etc. If he de cides to make Everett his he&d quarters for shipping it will make second Chicago. The Til lers and Etridge families are here and doing well. The Couri er^ was a welcome visitor the other day and I notice that Coop erstown is still on the map I have been fishing on the Suoho mish river today with my two brothers. We walked about six miles on the other side of town to the river, their we rowed about 4 miles down stream and back and between us got two bullheads. I guess fishing is "out of my line. I saw Frank Scongalle here yesterday. He use to b6 at Sanborn but made some money in mining and lives kere. I hear he has met with reverses, but dont know to what extent. Bents are very high and it looks to me as if this town was an inflated balloon and liable to bust at any time. Hundreds of people aro coming to this country, but I can't see what that they can all do. A person without a business or business prospects had better re main right there. Seventy-five men appeared for work to one firm in one day and. could not get it. If you are doing well 'v stay there. The whole family is enjoying themselves very much and the vacation is doing us all good.• RE. TRUBSHAW. MIANNAF0RD.

The! lady is a fluent, earnest talker, who has her subject well in hand, knows what she wants to say. and says it welL Her lectures of the evils of the rum traffic were not overdrawn, and .the warning she gave sounded as to the work the resnbmissionists are doing is well worth heeding. Our only regret was that those to whom her talk was aimed, were not present. In all probability a local W. C. T. U. will be organ ized. Mrs. S.

Tree Planting. Setting out trees is much more than digging a hole in the ground and putting a tree in it. We have never taken any scientific or special training in tbis line, but trees we set out generally grow now years ago they did not. One of the first things we learned was that a tree, however small or large, must have more roots^ than top or trouble would result. If the tree with more top than roots did not die, it came so near it that only meagre growth and an unsightly top was the result. It takes nerve to cut the top of a newly set tree when the only object in putting out the tree is to have the top there but a more beautiful top and a surer one is sure to be the result. We have tried both ways many times, and the result is always the same —a well shaped, thrifty, beauti ful top on the tree cut off clean, or nearly so, and a scraggly thin top or a dead tree where the top is all left on.

In one sense this im migration is an indication of great prosperity, but at the same time it is a forerunner of the sad day when there will be no more available public lands, and when it will be difficult, if not impos sible, for people of small means to acquire ownership in the soil. —Optic. is Send Me the Names Of any persons whom you know may have the western fever, with any knowledge you have regarding them, and I will glad ly see that they receive informa tion about the Northwest, and its future possibilities and the low rates now prevailing., to all points in the Northwest.
