The Hood River Defense Council has made a good beginning, at least on re claiming Nevis. He has been visited f requently by members of the Defense Council. At first defiant, he finally grew apologetic of his affiliations and Sunday he ended by recanting. Nevis was presented with a purse made up by members of the liefense Council, He declares that he wants to work as other men, and the Defense Council metnties have fctind him a job. Schrader, who still remains dttant, is held in jail. The federal grand jury, it is said, is investigating his recent activities.

Forest Notes Nearly WO.OOO people visited the Eagle Creek camp and picnic irrounds on the Uregon national forest in I9l 7. The total amount of timber cut on the national forests in the fiscal year PJ17 was 840,612,0(K) board feet, as against 714,505,000 board feet in 1016. Studies at the Forest Products Lab oratory, at Madison, 'Vis., have ahown that Fugleman spruce treated hy the sulphite pnanas gives a pulp that com pares very favorably in color and strength with that of white spruce. About 2J0 board feet of wood is used in the actual construction of the aver age airplane. To obtain this material it is ordinarily necessary to work over about 1,5W leet of select lumber, which often represents all that can be Used of 15,000 board feet of slanding timber. According to one of the German for estry journals, the kaiser in IDOf, Killed 1, '.195 pieces of wild game, in vading 71) stags, elk and roebuck. At that time he had slaughtered a total of til,7:W pieces of game, more than 4,JK) of which wte stags, and was the leading exterminator of wild life in the world. As a slaughterer of men, women and children, since 1U11, however, he has been the foremost exterminator of human lite in all his- I tory. Boy Scouts Active The Boy Scouts began last week to raise a $lf assessment, known as the extension asseutnent, levied against all Boy Scout organizations for war work. The local boys, under the lead ership of D. 0. Cruikshank, Scoutmas ter, have participated successfully in all patriotic enterprises. The members of the organization sold a large per centage of the Liberty Bonds bought by Howl River citizens last fall. Fourteen Scouts won badges for the sale of bonds. "Our troop will engage in the April Liberty Bond drive," says Mr. Cruik shank. "We expect then to make a better record than on any former occa sion." Frank Gets Fine Rabbits i Thirty-six dollars for three rabbits seems a lot of money, but it is all ow I ing to the rabbits. 1 Sherman J. FraUl, of the Avalon I Poultry farm, Monday received from j the Gilmore, Calif., rabbitry, a trio of I registered New Zealand Reds. When I the cost of transportation was figured I with the purchase price, Mr. Frank I found that his rabbits had cost him j $:w. The New Zealand rabbit, which ma I tures more quickly than either the Bel I gian or the Flemish Giant, is coming j to be a general favorite. ; Howe Gets Sheik Badge Henry L. Howe has just been pre- I sented by A. 0. U. VV. Grand Lodge of I Oregon with a veteran Sheik badge. ' The Sheiks are to the A. O. IT. VV. I lodge what the Shriners are to the Masonic UKige. .neiK Dailges are ! awarded for special service. Mr. Howe I has been a member of the fraternal or- ; ganization for 2i years. munities. The Mount Hood Co. will operate special rail autos for the ac-1 commodation of residents along its 1 line. It is exiiected that a number of j the people of The Dalles will be pres-1 ent. Circuit Judge Wilson, of that city, has accepted an invitation to pro nounce the words. Spellers and spectators will assem ble at the high school auditorium as Boon as possible after six o'clock. All women are asked to prepare a basket supper for two. These baskets will be auctioned off. As soon as supper is over two captains will be elected, and when these have chosen their sides, Judge Wilson will call for order and the fun will begin. After the selling bee is ended the floor will be cleared and an informal dance held. NORTHWEST IS WELL ADVERTISED The Northwest is leirig extensively advertised by the Pacific Northwest Tourist Association, the activities of which are financed by appropriations made last year by legislative bodies of Oregon, Washington and British Co lumbia. Handsome booklets, illustra tive of golfing, fishing, mountaineer ing, motoring, yachting ami general outing opiiortunities, have been made ready for a wide distribution. A letter from Emery Olmstead, vice president of the Northwestern National Bank in Portland, and one of the vice presidents 01 tne organization, is 111 part as follows : "At the present time Frank Branch Riley, attorney of Port Ihnd, with whom is associated Frank I. Jones, of Port land, a prominent hu-dness man, is now touring the eaBt in the interests of the whole Pacific Northwest. Mr. Riley, in his lectures, illustrated by a wonderful set of views, is taking the Pacific Northwest to the east and is not only bringing forcibly, in his own inimicable manner, our attractions as a trourist section, to the attention of the highest type of citizens in the L'nited States, but our wealth of nat ural resources in timber, in mines, in tih and in agriculture, and is particu larly dwelling uon the fact that in this great Pacific Northwest we have all the materials for aeroplanes and for shipbuilding, and thuse other agen cies we need for winning the war. "The Pacific Northwest has been put on the map more thoroughly in this short time, especially amongst those who control passenger tourist tratlic, than by all the efforts of the past and as completely as any other section." EDISON IS BUSY in the service of his country. We hear of him at sea on one of his sleepless tro-pet-her eampaiRns ot experimentation. He is tryinjr to scotch the r man sea snake- the submarine. But his Lip Phonograph Plant keeps ever in ereasinjj it output. In spite of the heavy National problems with which Mr. K.'.ison is wrestling, he has still fo'ind time to devote to pertectinp The Edison Record His German supply of chemicals cut off. Mr. Kdison lnt his match'ess mind to the problem of making all his otsn chemicals, so now everything in the make-up of this famous record comes from his own plant.

KEIR, Reliable Druggist Q i 0 DC DOC DC DC PEACH TREES NEED SPRAYING 1H Leroy Child. Then ;'.re two serious peace diseas es present in the Hood Kiver Valley. These are California peach blight and peach leaf curl. .Many peach trees in this community are dead and dying due to the presence Of these diseases, both of which are readily controlled, it' sprays are applied at the proper tMiie. The bligl t atfeks all parts of the trees, causing cankers on the old er wood and killing ti-tright much of the younger fruiting wcod. On the Cieen wood infected areas appear reddish 'irown and t' e bark is killed tfrouiih to the wood. The disease al so attacks fruit and leaf buds, pre .p,;..i-;..;...1..I.,H-HH:-l-H-H--r -H"I"1 M I I H-M"!"I ! I 'H-H-1 i 1-1 1 I I 1 1 I I T BLUE RIBBON BAKERY t ! Worst Winter in Years ! Snow, wind, and extreme cold caused j more colds this winter than in past I years. Foley's Honey and Tar proved ; its worth in thousands of homes. Men, women and children checked colds and i coughs and prevented serious conse quences from exposure. It clears the passages, heals raw inflamed mem j branes, banishes irritation and tickling throat. Mrs. Edward Strevy, R 37. ! Clinton, O., says: "I think Foley's ' Honey and Tar the only medicine for 1 coughs and colds and recommend it j highly," Sold everywhere. It Pays to Advertise The receipt of a postcard by Northwestern Fruit Exchange from an apple lover who lives at "1 Maslu cho, Wakayama, Japan," is another reminder of the power of advertising. The Honorable S. Shiniidzu had seer, so he writes, the Skookum advertising in Good Housekeeping Magazine, ami "Please send me your cook book," he asks. Now Wakayama is not one of the biggest cities of Japan, though it has its railroad, and all the ocean liners that sail up to the great port of lliogo-Kobe pass close to Wakayama, which rests snugly on the coast line of Japan's largest island, Nippon, CO miles from Kobe. Needless to say the cook book was sent to Mr. Shiniidzu, and by this time it has no doubt passed the censor and safely arived in the library at No. 1 Hashi-cho. Nor will the arrival be in vain. For Mr. Shimidzu, by the determined lines of his postcard script, will insist Skookum and will show their fine color at least to his friends, As to advertising, there are not many people who know that Seattle engaged the first known Chinese ad vertising expert, and that SeutHe has sent out nublications in eight languag es. Who of the general public knows that the messages of commercial America have been printed in Seattle in the characters of Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian. All these have ap peared in Seattle's pages of commer cial journalism. Advertising is the transportation that takes the manufac turer's message into the far corners. vintiiig tlieir development. The di sense causes a white, waxy exudation from the fruit, often destroying its marketability. The attack of the leaf curl disease is confined to tlfV foliage. Ul severe cases the tree, is entirely defoliated, resulting in severo injury to the tree's vigor. If this disease is per uiitted to progress unattended during several seasons the t'ees become so weak that they fail to produce good fruit. . Both diseases are readily controll ed I'm?

Growers in several localities are now talking "tractor clubs." Labor is very scarce and owners of five and It) acre tracts propose to organize cooperative companies for the purchase of tractors and plows. The cooperative scheme has been ori 1 successfully tried out in harvesting and ; packing of apples, and representative j growers express the opinion that trac : tor clubs may be organized on as profit able a basis. New Steps Completed W. T. Price, who has been in charge : of the work, reports the completion of construction of two long flights of ; stairs, one flight on Ninth street and ; the other on Second street, providing ! short cuts for pedestrian traffic he : tween the upper and lower towns. The iold strairs, which the new work re-' i places, were becoming dangerous. The Second street stairs, more than .r00 feet long, make perhaps one of the . longest (lights in the state.

Fraley, a rancher of the I u fur district, according to a letter re ceived last week from Mr. Fraley by J. W. Anderson, local dealer made a unique record Monday, when he drove his 12-20 Cleveland tractor, just bought from Mr. Anderson, from The Halles to his home in eight hours. The dis tance was 27 miles. "The roads were snowcovered and very muddy," Mr. Fraley wrote, "and 1 did not try to go fast, but took a steady gait! I used but one gallon of water on my trip." When You Have a Cold It is when you have a severe cold that you appreciate the good qualities of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Mrs. Frank Crocker, Pana, 111., writes: "Our five year old son Paul caught a severe cold last winter that settled on his lungs and he had terrible coughing spells. We were greatly worried about him as the medicine we gave him did not help him in the least. 'A neighbor spoke so highly of Chamberlain's We have to pay $5, gold, per box, however," says Mrs. Beckley in her lettpr, "although the fruit is not first class." Fir Lumber Co. Ready The Fir Lumber Co., the plant of which was recently constructed on the range of hills to the east of the valley, will begin operation this week. C. W. Rouck, superintendent of the company, owned by H. M. Sidney, states that he has been logging throughout the win ter and that he will be able to produce 12,000 feet of lumber daily throughout the spring, summer and fall seasons. Storm Damage Was Heavy The damage of last week's snow storm to the Oregon-Washington Tele phone Co. was greater than at first estimated. The repair of broken lines and poles, resulting from the burden of snow that weighted down the cables, has cost the corporation more than $.VHI. The greatest loss was suffered when an electric power cable was borne down across a string of telephone wires, causing more than ."0 Wrest Side telephones to burn out. T. & L. Co.
