14 THE MORNING QREGOKIAy,. THURSDAY, MAY 14, 1903. HOOD RIVER, OREGON ' FAMOUS FOR ITS OTHER FRUITS HOOD RIVER. Or.. May 10. (Special correspondence.) We Americans consider there are two requisites for happiness in j this world "health and wealth." "We de sire health that we may gain wealth, and. having gained wealth, we seek to re tain -health. Hood River seems to be an Ideal location for obtaining and retaining both. Here is a community of business men and farmers, wide-awake, energetic. Intelligent and progressive. Here are women and children with bloom of health and symmetry of form, pleasing to the eye and the envy of the feeble and decrepit- Here are people who have pros pered through having located where local advantages are so favorable, and each one Is an immigration agent to tell an allur ing story of why Hood River is to be pre ferred to any other place. Optimism is the rule and pessimism the exception and J the spirit Is contagious. Optimism is one of the diseases which is not to be feared or avoided, as it develops the best in the physical and mental of mankind. Hns 2Iany Attractions. "Come to Hood River.'" they say, "and drink in the ozone of our mountain air; bask in the sunshine of our months and months of cloudless skies; drink of our cool waters from snow-capped Hood; eat of our delicious fruits; gaze upon the grandeur of our scenery, fhe lordly Co lumbia River at your feet, the snow peaks of Adams and Hood to the north and south. Till the soil and note what golden harvests are yours. No fear of drouth, for there is an abundance of water to irri gate the land throughout the valley. Our "Winters are just cold enough to give us the pleasures of sleighing and skating, jmd our Summers warm enough to bring to the greatest perfection our fruits, rotating- through the season, with straw berries, cherries, pears, prunes, peaches' zz:& apples. Our streams abound in fish and our mountains in game." Has So IwVal. Hood River is the name of the river having Its source at the base of Mount Hood, and emptying here Into the Co lumbia. It is a rapid mountain stream with a large flow of water, but Is nowhere navigable. It is capable of developing much powf r, but Is being only utilized for floating sawlogs from the mountains. Hood River ir the name of the town "which has r.ow a population of about 1200. but which had no existence prior to the completion of the O. R. & N. Co.'s rail road. It has water and rail connection, Isiing 6G miles from Portland and 22 miles from The Dalles. It Is fhe shipping point for all the Hood River Valley, which Is from four to five miles wide and IS to 20 miles long, and is rapidly being settled up with small farmers, on ten and 20-acre tracts, and thepe lands are being set to strawberries and fruit trees, which return large proflts on the investment. The total population of the valley 4s now about 4000 and Increasing from year to year. The land slopes back from the Columbia River to an elevation of about 300 feet, and there forms a table land extending back Into the mountains. The abundant water of the creeks arc brought out on this plateau, and dtetrlbutcl to the fruit and berry raiser?, thus enabling them to have positive assurance of annual crops, no matter how dry may be the season. The natural and only practical outlet of this valley is by and through the town here, and as a consequence it has no rival for commercial supremacy. A Populous Valley. Let U assume that the average Income of the lands of the valley Is only 5100 to the acre, which. I think, from figures I will give later In this letter will prove n. very low estimate, the present number of acres producing crops is only about 2500. The aggregate acreage of the valley, suitable for berries and fruit treer is about 50,000. so that the valley will eventually r.upport a population of from 25.000 to 20.000 people, and the annual ealcs reach several million dollars. In stead of as now only about $250,000. These ligures may seem to be extravagant, but It must be borne in mind that the prod ucts here are not dependent upon the dementis of a local marker, but extend al most to the entire globe, and as a con sequence there Is practically no limit to the market. A Rapid Development. The writer has personal recollections of the Hood River Valley when the only mcatiH of transportation was by the river; when there were no transcontinental rail roads, and the only market was a local one. easily glutted: when the lands where is now the town of Hood River was In large farms owned by the Coes, the "Wat rons. the Smiths and others, and only a short distance back from tho river were hundreds of acres of unowned and untllled land covered with a growth of pine and underbrush. The rew residents In the valley then may have had a conception of the, present settlement here, but would have been deemed visionary to have prophesied so rapid a development. It was largely owing to the experiments in rirawberry culture, proving lands con sidered worthless to bo very valuable, which gave to tho Hood River Valley Its fame, and to Its possessors fortunes. A Buy People. t A trip through the valley, amemg the farm?, is a most enjoyable one. The fruit trees are In bloom, the rows and rows of strawberry plants are bright green, and In every field are seen men, women and even children, busy as bees, taking ad vantage of this favorablo weather to get the ground in proper shape, the fields free of weeds, so that later, when Irri gation commences, there shall be no in terruption to the rapid growth of the strawberry vines and the bloom and ma turity of the berries. About the middle of May the strawberries will begin com ing Into market, and it is estimated that this year there will be 125,000 crates of strawberries shipped. During the strawberry season about 2000 pickers have been heretofore em ployed, but this year the demand will be for about twice that number. Hood River is a popular place for enjoying an outing, and many families come here to pick berries and at the same time enjoy the Invigorating effects of the climate. Plenty of Wort. "If one were to come to Hood River looking for work, what could he find to do?" I inquired of one of the leading business men here. "Thore is a never-falling demand for men at $2 to $3.50 a day in the sawmills and logging-camps, and among the. farm ers, but ' at less wages for farm -work, also during the fruit season for pick ing strawberries." "If I were to apply for a Job picking Btrawberrlcs, where would I find a place to live, as your houses seem to bo ucarce even now?" "It Is the general rule for berry-pickers to bring with them camping outfits. Ino owners of the strawberry planta tions will hire an average of about five pickers to the acre, and will find for his pickers suitable camping grounds, where wood and water are convenient. The picking season lasts about one month, but Is not over through the entire valley for about 60 days." "With a family of say five persons, tho husband, wife and three children, the youngest being -10 years of age, how much money can that family earn picking ber ries?" "That Is a hard question to answer, as some persons can pick much faster than others, and the condition of. the crop varies. A grown person can earn from $1 to $2.50 a day, and children from 75 cents to $1.50 a day. At, that rate a family of five can earn from $1.50 to $2 during the month. The pickers are paid by the box at the rate of 14 cents each. STRAWBERRIES, APPLES AND Quite 'a large number of persons are em ployed as 'packers,' and are paid cent a box, or wages by the hour. It is lighter work than picking, and persons who can not pick profitably do well in the packing-rooms." "When does the picking season com mence?" "About May 20, and Is at its best .about June 10. and ceases about July 1." "Do the growers haul the camping out- A THE COLUMBIA fits from the station to the farm, and back again?" "Yea. It Is customary to do so, by nearly all the growers, and cooking-houses are also provided in some cases. The growers try to make it as pleasant and profitable for their pickers as possible." "What wages are paid on the farm?" "Hired men get from $1 to $1.25 a dny and board, and girls, to do housework, can earn from S3 to $5 a week." "Is there much demand for this class of work?" "Yes. greater than the supply. Farmers are looking for men every day, and the demand for girls ao domestics Is almost impossible to supply." Secnrlnjr a Home. "If I were to como to Hood River and want to buy a tract of land for growing strawberries, or apples, where would you advise mo to buy, what would be the cost, and what would be the probable profits?" "Much depends upon the state of your financed If you have enough money to buy what you want and pay cash, and havo some money over to live on, I would advise you to buy an improved piece of land, but If not you can do better to rent. By industry you can then make enough money to later buy and own a tract of land without going in debt. There aro hundreds of acres of straw berry land which the owners will rent, for from $5 to $10 an acre. In advance, and which will return to the renter, when set to berries. $100 to $150 to the acre. It GATHERING STRAWBERRIES Is estimated that a man and family can take care of ten acres and hire no help except during the picking season. Water for irrigation costs from $3 to $5 an acre, per season. The cost of picking and ' crating two dozen boxes of berries is 64 cents, and the average yield through the valley Is 150 crates to the acre, which sell at from $4 to 1.50 a crate, or an average of about $2 a crate, which leaves as a profit above all expenses about $150. an acre. Ten acres In strawberries will bring in $1500 or more a year. There is no place where a man with an indus trious wife and children can succeed so well, as at Hood River, on a small farm. A woman, as an example, can tend to KITCHENER, DIPLOMAT. His Fine Tact Won Both. French and Boers. M. A. P. In X. Y. Mall and Express. I have often written that I regard Lord Kitchener as one of the ablest diplomatists of his time. Nobody who watched events at the time can ever forget the masterly tactics by which Kitchener got his own country .and France out of an extremely tight place at Fashoda. Poor Marchand and his gallant French comrades were half dead with fever and hunger when they arrived at Fashoda, and Kitchener, grasping the situation, sent them doc tors, drugs and. wlhc; and in this ex change of courtesies passed one of the most perilous crises in the relations of two great nations that ever occurred. Talking to a high officer who had been in South Africa, the other day, I was amused to find how Kitchener repeated something of his Fashoda performance at Vereenlglng with the Boer leaders. Knowing how the gallant fellows had been starved of both food and drink dur ing their long days and nights for months on the veldt. Kitchener resolved to let them know some "of the comforts of civi lization, and orders were quietly given that when tho Boer officers'came In they; the Irrigating ditches, trim the vines and do other things and earn a man's wages." "The season for attending a strawberry farm is about six months, from April to October, which leaves six months which can be utilized In some other way. Most of the uncleared lands In the Hood River valley are covered with a growth of pine, fir. oak or brush timber and this can be cut down, grubbed and burned, during the idle season. These uncleared lands can be bought at prices ranging from $10 to $150 an acre, depending upon location. When the same land 13 cleared and set out in strawberries or bearing fruit, It Is worth from $150 to $300 an acre, the dif ference in the price between wild and cultivated land being represented prin cipally by the labor put on it. Thus a man clearing a ten-acre tract could put VIEW OF HOOD RIVER, OREGON RIVER AND MOUTH dF HOOD RIVER 4n from $500 to $500 work during each Winter, the weather being but little in terruption to his work." "Are not the prices at which land Is being sold rather high?" "No, I think not. Our own people here are buying these lands at the prices and consider it a good investment and when a tract of land is once cleared and nicely Improved there Is a good demand for It by persons who do not want to work and wait for the same condition." ' "What do you consider Is tho future of the fruit industry at Hood River" "I look for tho apple bolt to be on tho foothills on the east side of Hood River, and tho strawberry belt to be on thp west side, where the soli Is better adapted to strawberries and not so good for apples. The contemplated new water ditch on the eat side will be of great advantage to that section as the present ditch has been to this side of the valley." "How are the settlers in the upper end of the Hood River Valley going to get their products to market cheaply?"' "At present they bring them the IS miles by team, but It will not be many years until the products there and settlement will warrant the construction of a railroad along the banks of. Hood RIvenft and It , could easily be electrified, as tsere Is available In Hood River over lOO.OQi horse I power." An Irrigating: Ditch. An Idaho syndicate is now obtaining the right of way for an irrigating ditch which will carry 10,000 Inches of water and cover AT HOOD RIVER. OREGON FOUR. THOUSAND PICKERS WlLI BE IX DEMAND THERE. about 19,000 acres of fruit and farm land. This ditch will have about 200 feet ele vation above the bed of the river, and will be capable of developing an Immense power. It will cost something like $200,005, and Is to be rushed through to completion. The upper end of Hood River Valley Is now In parts a virgin forest of fine tim ber, but as soon as those trees are cut out the farmer will follow with the ax and grubbing hoe, and orchards and strawber ries will be planted there. We have the soil and the climate for strawberries and apples, and It needs only capital and en ergy to develop the country, and tho peo ple are coming In rapidly and making were to be given plenty of the best. The Boers naturally enjoyed to the full this feast after a famine the soldier always does let himself go when, there is an In terval between starving and dying and the ordinary enjoyment of life human nature demands these records and the Boers were acting according to tho In variable history of warriors In not spar- ! lng cither the food or the liquor. So there werejunketings, and even an exchange of j friendly toasts, and, in short, the way i was prepared for an approach to the great debate on peace or war In a spirit I more benign and more Christian than would otherwise have been the case. And so Kitchener won by the wily arts of diplomacy as much as by the sterner methods of the sword. Perhaps that Is one of the many reasons why the Boers always liked him. BUSINESS ITEMS.

Rapid and reliable transportation facili ties are of great Importance to a fruit growing district, and In this respect Hood River is admirably situated. The prod ucts can readily be shipped over four transcontinental railroads the Union Pa cific, Southern Pacific, Great Northern and Canadian Pacific, besides being in easy reach of water transportation north ana soutn along tne woasu t Valae of Co-Operatien. Tho fruitgrowers here have learned from past experience that success is large ly dependent upon co-operative organiza tion in the distribution of their products. ARE SEEN. and hence the Fruitgrowers Association here has been a prominent factor In the fruit-industry of the valley. Larue Number of Telephones. ' At tho telephone exchange In Hood River are nearly 200 subscribers, and -constantly increasing in number. In propor tion to the population of only about 1200. this is probably the largest list of sub scribers of any exchange on the Coast. The Lamberlng Industry. There aro seven sawmills In and near this town, the combined amount of lum ber manufactured each year being about 45.000.000 feet, the number of men em ployed about 400, and the payroll about $250,000 a year. Tho lowest wages paid are $2 a day for 10 hours' work, and the sea son lasts about ten months. Fir lumber is the principal kind manufactured. Trro More Hotels. Tho increasing business here has about reached the limits of the hotel accommo dations, and two new hotels are talked- of here, one for commercial men exclusive ly, In the center of town, and the other a tourist hotel, on a sightly location on land formerly embraced In the Coe farm. Hood River is growing, and some fine residences are In course of construction, and plans for more have been drawn. Probably 100 new buildings will be erect ed here this Summer. Berry Piclcers "Wanted. The berry crop of Hood River last year was about 57,000 crates, and to gather the fruit about 2000 pickers were employed. The total acreage of full-hearing vines this year is closely estimated to be S00 acres, with about 500 acres more of new yards which will each bear a. small croo. The number of crates of strawberries that will be shipped from Hood River this sea son is estimated at 109.000 crates, and that at least 4000 pickers will be given employ ment. Persons desiring information about securing work had best address the Da vidson Fruit Company, at Hood River, and the camp should be pitched at least ten days before picking commences. In order to avoid the great rush of pickers which comes later. REASONS FOR REFERENDUM Arguments In Support of Opposition to Portage Road and Eddy Lavr. PORTLAND, May 12. (To the Editor.1) In justice to my associates I want to say In regard to the referendum petitions on the portage railroad act. corporation grad ed capital-stock annual license of tax law and exemption amendment act wiping out all exemption from taxation and execution that we went Into this matter on business principles only, believing that the state Is overtaxed and that the new corporation tax. which is a double tax, is a rank In-' justice to the growing mining interests of the state, at which we have good author ity the bill was particularly almed. We have the best of evidence that the port age railroad bill was a mere political trade In the race for Federal office, and two of Multnomah's representatives In the Leg islature have stated within the past ten days that this was the case, and that they only voted for the bill because It was poli tics, and not because they believed In the measure: that they knew it was a bluff and a makeshift Inadequate to meet the requirements of traffic, just as the old portage road 20 years ago was inadequate, not self-sustaining, and had to be aban doned. The War Department has prac- tlcally settled this question by declining to settle the right-of-way matter until after a meeting of Congress, and now has a board of engineers on the ground with orders to proceed with the building of the canal and locks between The Dalles and Celllo, The money is up, and a canal is the only practical method of Columbia River transportation. Why. then, should the taxpayers of Oregon, already over burdened, put up more money for a use less toy railroad and Interfere In an en terprise strictly belonging to the Federal Government, when that Government is building a permanent all-water way to the sea, and especially when It will take $500. 000 more than the appropriation made to complete the portage road, which will be a dead horse by the time It can be built? Is there not good reason to repeal such a bill, save the money or invest it in same thing better after we have paid our Lewis and Clark bills? Notwithstanding contrary assertions, we cannot but feel that the corporation tax bill and exemption amendment bill were passed to make up the loss to be Incurred by the portage railroad bill In the political trada. and for these reasons took steps to Invoke the rcferei-dum. We may fail, but a few days $vlll tell the story, and I may state" that we may be traitors to the Inter ests of Eastern Oregon, but today 1 sent to the County Clerk of Baker County peti tions to refer the portage bill, signed by 900 voters, and more are coming In every day. Even nere In Portland hundreds are signing the petitions, and reports from Southern Oregon enow equal interest there. They take the. ground that it can harm no one to put the questions to bal lot, and that for such emergencies the last constitutional amendment was made. One very interesting point In connec tion with this matter was given me this afternoon by one of the widest-known attorneys in Portland, who told me that he was in Salem at the time the portage bill was Dossed. He thanked us for call ing for the referendum on the bill, stat ing: "The portage bill was passed at the instance of the corporations, who hope by building the road to retard the con struction of the canal between The Dalles and Celllo by the Federal Government the same as they held back ther work at the Cascades by the old portage road and other schemes, 15 years ago. without any benefit. In rates, ' If the portage road Is built we won't get the canal the Govern ment has already started In 20 years. I believe the people will vote the portage bill down at the polls In 1904. for this reason, and I trust there will be no failure In securing the signers to the ref erendum petition on this act." W. C. COWGILL. RESTORES DEAD TO LIFE "Wonderful Experiment of New Yorlc Physician With a Dosr. NEW YORK. Mayli. Raising an inter esting question as to when life In animals actually becomes extinct. Dr. Robert C. Kemp, who has been conducting experi ments here for two years, has found It possible to restore a dog to life after Its heart had stopped beating for 16 minutes. After an examination the animal was offi cially pronounced dead, yet Dr. Kemp, by massaging Its heart, so far brought It back to life that it lived 24 hours, and meanwhile It was so far restored to tho use of Its faculties that it ate and drank. In 11 out of 23 experiments of this char acter. Dr. Kemp has succeeded in "re storing dogs to life," and he Is convinced that In the case of human beings under different conditions the proportion of res torations would be greater. In the case of the dogs he ascribes their death after an interval of from two or three to 24 hours not to failure of his treatment, but to the fact that the dogs could not be prevented from tearing away the ban dages. Only one such experiment has been tried on a human being, and in that case it was not successful. Gravel, sand, sediments in the urine, aro cured by Oregon KSdncy Tea.
