ORCHARD OUTLOOK BRIGHT An excellent editorial entitled "Will Fruit-growing Be Over done?" aDDears in the current issue of "The Country Gentle man." The editorial sums up its conclusions in part as follows: If we take a fair look at the situation, trying" to see both sides of the question and trying- to get at the actual facts, we shall find much more to encourage than to discourage us. Only a small fraction of the nursery trees so hopefully set every year will ever bear fruit The annual increase of product from young trees for years to come will hardly make good the loss from the slaughter of old trees. Meanwhile our mar kets expand daily. Moreover the leading fruit-growers all know that better handling and selling organizations can sell twice as much fruit in the same markets. At the present time the market is only half fed, half supplied and half worked. Then there is considerable for eign market practically un touched, especially as regards the Continental outlet. There will certainly be or chards in the future which will not make any money. The or chards which are simply excuses for land speculations will fail first, as they ought Then there will be some collapse of schemes which have poor management or which lack capital, or which have made fundamental mistakes in choice of soils, climates, varie ties or markets. But the genu ine, up-to-date fruit-growers who have gone into the business in telligently, safeguarding all these points as business men in other fields are compelled to, have no reason to get worried. Indeed the outlook for them is alto gether bright The man with the young or chard asks: "What are we go ing to do about it?" Be calm ! Simply continue to rely on three fundamentals good culture, good packing and good market ing. Good culture involves the selection of the suitable soil, ad equate fertilization, tillage and winter covering, pruning, spray ing, and thinning of the fruit Then the harvesting and packing must be right, honest and adapted to the market Finally, cultivate the market most of all Search for it learn its needs, de velop it by good distribution and get the benefit of the great in crease in favor of fruit as a part of the daily diet There are un developed markets that will ab sorb fruit crops several times the size of our present crop, Furthermore, the market for the best will never be glutted. The alarm need not disturb the careful grower: it is only the dirge of the careless and fool hardy who are foredoomed to failure. There were never bet ter opportunities ahead for the capable fruit-grower. Skill in orcharding is demanding a pre mium and is assured of getting it TEMPTING. THf CITY PEOPLE Hood River is going to take an active part in the Northwest Land Products Show to be held in Portland November 18th to 23rd inclusive, and the event which will be the first land prod ucts show ever held in the West, is deserving of such support Its purposes are as follows: To give tangible and indisput able evidence of the vast re sources of the soil of the fertile Pacific Northwest To show to men tired of city life the independence of the till ers of the soil by displaying to them what others have done and can da To encourage the settlement of the vast territory of unculti vated land with happy and pros perous people. To familiarize the city dwellers with the varied food products grown in all sections. To instill in the minds of chil dren a knowledge of horticulture and agriculture and to teach them to know the varied prod ucts of the the fruit and vege table kingdom. To show the present farmer the results of applied scientific methods. That the purpose of the show is a deserving one can be attest ed by hundreds of former city dwellers who are now happy, prosperous, independent resi dents of the fertile Hood River Valley. WARNING TO TEASERS Persons who are in the habit of teasing others, even without any malicious intent, should take warning from a case which hap pened in New York the other day. In an up-town apartment a young man and his aged moth er lived happily for some time. The young man was a great tease and, although he loved his mother dearly, he enjoyed noth ing so much as to tease her. He found it so easy to make her angry by his teasing that he indulged quite frequently in this form of amusement Day after day the other tenants of the apartment house could hear the old lady storming and raging at her son, but everybody under stood that the young man was merely teasing her. It seems, however, that the young man went a trifle too far and teased his mother once too often. The strain proved too much for her and in her exas peration she waited until her son had fallen asleep; then she turned on the gas in his room and retired to her own room and did likewise. Next morning both were found dead from as phyxiation. We recommend a study of the crop reports for that feeling of National pessimism. Portland Telegram. Let who may be elected Presi dent, the Hood River apples wil continue to reign supreme among fruits. Some men are so easy that anybody can get money out of them, even their own wives. None are so blind as those who take too many eye-openers, Even the crop reports have gone in for aeronautics. Big crops solve more problems than all the loud orators.
