OREGON CHERRY EXPERIMENTS ARE 0 IN WASCO Cherry pollenization experiments on an unprecedented scale, which, it is expected, will result in data invaluable to horticulturists in all parts of the nation, will be conducted in Wasco county orchards this spring. Prof. C. bj. fachuster, of the Oregon Agricul tural College, and a corps of assistants will cooperate with Countv Acent E. R. Jackman and Horticultural bureau Chief Nelson who beaan their work the past week. More than 20.000 cherry blossoms will be pollenized atrihcially from several varieties of trees now known to be fertile. Rec ords will be kept of each blossom. Prof. V. R. Gardner, of the Oreeon Agricultural College faculty, several years ago discovered in incomplete ex periments that lack of pollenization was one of the biggest factors in lim iting cherry tonnage. it :s anticipated that the experi ments will determine which of the pol inating varieties are the most fertile. especially upon such varieties as the LJing, Lambert and Royal Anne cher ries, the district s chief commercial cherries. These varieties are inter- sterile, that is, not capable f fertiliz ing other varieties. CIIATFIELD LOOKS FOR MANY GUESTS Receipt of letters from eastern apple buyers, who will attend the Seattle convention of the International Apple Shippers' Association in July, by R. D. Chatfield, manager of the Mosier Fruitgrowers Association, indicates that a large number of the delegates will return from the Pueet Sound metropolis by way of mid-Columbia fruit sections. Proportionate to the tonnage it ships, the Mosier associa tion is probably better known to the apple trade than any other northwest ern cooperative association. It is probably unique in the entire country in that it handles practically 100 per cent of the fruit tonnage of the Wasco countv district.

The ranch place, valued at $20,000, will back the bonds. Memberships in the club are beinc Bignea up, the initiation fee Jbeing $25, ana mommy aues $3. Spoiled Sidewalks Rile Dobson ine patience or josepn Dooson was worn to a frazzle last week while he and his son, Harry Dobson, were patching a section of sidewalk in front or the old Hood River State Bank building. Despite barricades pedes tnana were constantly walking into the newly placed, wet concrete. Two absent-minded women shoppers daubed tneir neat shoes with the grimy mix ture as they waded into the patches. 1 ao not mind such interruptions as this so much," said Mr. Dobson, "but I have been very badly peeved recently by wilful depredations of school bovs on May street on the Heights. The little dickenses have deliberately walked all over newlv laid concrete sidewalks, making the work pretty ooicny. Betty LaVerne Isenberg Funeral services were held at the Bartmess chapel last Thursday for Betty LaVerne, 10-day old baby of Mr. and Mrs. M. E. Isenberg. The infant died the day before from spasms. Rev. W. H. Boddy officiated at the funeral services, interment fol lowing at Idlewilde cemetery. Doctor F. C. Brosius, Phones 1881 and i882, Hood River, announces to big patrons acassh discount of one-third off: All accounts charged at usual fees and subject to collection after 30 days, tf The Pheasant FounUin and Tea Room and Oregon Hotel Dining Room All Under Same Management Breakfast Noon Day Lunch Regular Dinner 5:30 to 8:30 p. m. have them tell of their interest in our district. We are expecting to wel come many prominent buyers and show them how apples of this section are grown." The growers and shippers of Mosier are eagerly looking forward to a ma terialization of plans calling for a joint entertainment, by the fruit inter ests of the two districts, of visiting delegates. It is likely, it is said, that Hood River will be made mid-Columbia headquarters for visitors, and a motor tour over the Hood River-Mosier section of the Columbia River High way and the Mosier orchard sections will be featured as a part of local entertainment. ARMY OFFICERS HAVE PRAISE FOR SCENERY The Columbia River Highway and Hood River valley won new plaudits Thursday from a party of army officers and railroad men, who motored here from Portland with A. S. Edmonds, traffic manager of the O.-W. R. & N. Co. The visitors were taken on a tour of the orchard sections by J. H. Fred- ney, Chas. 11. Castner and A. W. Stone. "I have never seen a highway more magnificent." said Col. D. H. Currv. of Omaha. "And the scenery of the Columbia gorge is certainly a great setting for a road of such wonder. Your Oregon country comes ud to all I have ever heard about it." said Col. Jack Hayes, of Washington. D C. 'Indeed, it surpasses mv expectation. It takes a man back to the davs when his childish imagination was vivid and he was able to conjure up the land where fairies dwelt and wrought." Other mcmbera of the nartv in- luded: Col. Asa L. Singleton, of Washington; R. B. Robertson, assist ant freight traffic manager of the Union Pacific system at Chicago, and John C. Willis, general agent of a umber of south Atlantic railroads with headquarters at San Francisco. whs fit The I Dalles engaged on the case Thursday night officers of The Dalles and Wasco county were called out by a Chinese tong outbreak.

Mr. urunuuiHi. says tne observation was very inspiring, and that the children, who had been trained under a program committee headed by Mrs. Ned Van isuys, did well.

Ar buckle pictures, Mr. Kolstad declares, are forever under the ban in Hood River, so long as he has anything to do with the shows. N ,. f TV. -- A-? Jf if . VIEW AT 0.-W. R. & N. STATION APPEALING Passengers awaiting O.-W. R. & N. trains here the past few days have been impressed by the beauty of pas toral scenes along the Columhia low lands north of the station. The flats, where scores of cows graze, are can opied over a large area by willow and Cottonwood .trees. Large, lake-like pools and sloughs have a fringe of the willows. The trees are just now burst ing into leaf the newly opened twigs displaying a springtime coloring . of gteen and light yellow. Immediately to the north of the sta tion is a long block of closely clipped lawn, where a year ago a waste of sand and trash greeted the eye. The improvement has resulted from initi ative of Agent J. H. Fredricy, who bad the plot spaded and seeded last year. The lawn is now one of the handsomest of the city. To the west of the passenger station, along bank, where formerly passersby were tempted to toss paper bags and candy Doxes, Mr. f erdricy has planted climb ing ropes and ramblers. The bushes the new leaves of which are now an pearing, fairly cover the old unsightly bank, and the rail line's passengers will soon be greeted bv an effusion of blooms.
