Since his arrival here several weeks ago he has made an Inspection of the apple crops, and says he takes the opposite view of buyers who believe the Hood Kiver fruit should not bring as good a price as last year. In fact, Mr. Van Horn warns growers against getting cold feet or letting their apples go at anything but a highly profitable figure.

Too many of our people wanted to wait and see the prospect for this year. This summer it was thought for a time suitable quarters were to be provided which could be rented, but this failed to materialize and again the board have taken up the build ing proposition. An option on a suitable location has been secured and we have been soliciting subscrip tions for stock ou a proposition which It seems can be made to pay expenses. We are uot having the support that such a movement warrants. No one questions or doubts the many benefits to be derived from the fruit fair, but too many are willing to set by and allow the other fellow to do the work and put up the nec essary funds to do the business. The answer to our question lies with the people of Hood River aud Hood River valley. If we are to have a fair (and we never needed one more than this year) we must get busy. A building must be erected and It Is up to you fellow citizens to provide the funds. C. I). Thompson, Sec'y Board. Speaks Well of Hood River F. L.
