After the Doctor
THE DRUGGIST
The doctor's work is only half
what has to be donefor the pa
tient. And if the druggist be
lacking in ability and care the
prescription might as well have
never been written. But we
make a special study of each case
and our own medical knowledge
is thorough enough to be of great
use to us in those sometimes oc
curring cases when the doctor,
in his haste, makes a slight error.

HEROISM OF LOCAL
MAN RECOGNIZED
Announcement wag made the last of
the week that the Carnegie hero com
mittee has named Ernest E. I3og;ebs,
until recently a resident of Hood illv
er, as one of the winners in the Car
negie fund distribution. Mr. Boggess
was awarded a bronze medal, $415
disablement benefits and the 11000 as
needed.
The award was made In recognition
of Mr. Boggess' heroism In attempt
ing to save the life of Ray S. Utter,
who was burned to death In the fire
which destroyed the plant of the Hood
River Manufacturing & Engineering
Company In this city May 18, 1910.
Both men were machinists. Utter
was working with a gasoline brazier.
This exploded and Utter was envelop
ed In flames. The room in which he
was working also caught Ore. Boggess
was in an adjoining room at the time
and, discovering the fire, rushed
through the flames which then filled
the room and attempted to pull Utter
from the building. Although bis
clothes caught fire and he suffered
excruciating pain, Boggess persisted
In his heroic effort and did not desist
until he saw that his efforts were in
vain. He effected his own escape from
the building only in the nick of time
to save his own life. His hands arms,
and face were baldy burned and he
was in the hospital for about two
months recovering from the injuries.
Boggess worked in this city for a
year after the occurance. He then mov
ed to Portland, where he now resides.
His many friends here were much
pleased at the public recognition of
his heroism.
SUMMER FALLOWING INJURIOUS
Practice Should Be Discontinued in
Western Oregon Section
That summer fallowing is a practice
long ago discontinued in humid dis
tricts, is a statement made recently by
Prof. H. D. Scudder of the Oregon
Agricultural College.
"It is throwing money in the river
to summer fallow here in this moist
part of the state, as four times the
amount of plant foods that the crop
can use is brought out and leaches
away in the drainage," he said. "It
is necessary in Eastern Oregon, how
ever, where the climate is dry.
"The yield per acre is the measure
of successful farming. Farmers of
Oregon have for too long spread them
selves over too much land, and thus
cut their profits and into their store
of soil fertility. The problem of the
Oregon farmer is to maintain the fer
tility of his land, taking off crops of
increasing value without depleting the
yielding power of the soil."

GETS A GREWSOME GIFT
A human skull with a decidedly
vacant look greeted the editor of this
paper when he entered the office one
day last week. Alongside was a paid
up subscription, which clear'y indicat
ed that if there were any connection
between the two It was no dead-head
Into whose empty sockets we gazed.
It had come from the sand pit on the
flat below. We sent for Jake Hunt
and he failed to recognize It as one
of his friends, but thought it might
bo Leaves In the Wind, a noted beauty
of 100 years go. The skull Is that of
an early Chinook. There is little fore
head because of the custom of coast
Indians to bind the head with a board
in such a way that it pressed the skull
back and loft no forehead, only a wide
flat head. It was anything but a level
headed Idea. White Salmon Enterprise.
HARD TIMES DANCE
IS AJEAL FROLIC
It was a Jolly crowd which gathered
for the Hard Times Dance given for
the benefit of the University Club
dance fund. Ia reality it was more
like a costume ball, there being pres
ent representatives of all walks in
life except the respectable. Gentle
men and ladies of color were conspic
uous, while Weary Willies, Rubes, cow
boys and the like were much in evi
dence. Captain McCan, made up as a
second Bill Sikes, conducted a booth
and dispensed choice confections, in
cluding chewing gum, which met with
speedy consumption on the part of
the ladies present The latter's gowns
were all stunning creations, the mater
ials ranging from the latest Imported
flour racking to the finest of cheese
cloth and bunting.
Chandler's orchestra, composed of a
big, black coon, Farmer Corntossel,
and Professor Francois, leader, fur
nished some splendid dance music.
Several old-fashioned dances, includ
ing the minuet and Virginia reel, were
Indulged In, everybody taking part
with a zest and jollity that made the
occasion one of the pleasantest of its
kind.
One of the features of the evening
was the Siwash Indian war dance lead
by Heap Big Chief Fredricy in com
plete costume. While the orchestra
manipulated the tomtoms, the string
of savages executed the steps in a
way which reminded one of a Sing
Sing chain gan, the costumes not as
sisting materially to dispel the illusion.
Many of the young women appeared
in the guise of Sunbonnet Sue at sweet
sixteen, with braids down their backs.
Several old-fashioned costumes, pre
served the past quarter century or
more, were also worn.
PASTOR TO DISCUSS
SOCIAL PROBLEMS
A notable series of lectures on the
social problem by Rev. Edward A.
Harris began at Riverside church last
Sunday evening. These lectures are
based upon the findings of the Ameri
can Institute of Social Service In New
York and each one is illustrated by
fifty stereoptlcon views of conditions
as they exist. The lecture Sunday
evening was on "How the Other Half
Lives" and dealt with the wages and
hours of the laboring class in this
country, what the employers are doing
and with the effects of labor organi
zations.
Mr. Harris pointed out in the begin
ning that there is in reality no such
thing "as the other half," that man is
really one but that there is a dis
cernible cleavage in society developed
around the difference between those
who work by the hand and those who
work by the brain. These differences
were vividly brought to mind by the
scenes presented from the steel mills,
coal mines, factories, railroads, sweat
shops, etc. The lecture was compre
hensive and very instructive.
The subject for next Sunday night
is "Where the Other Half Lives",
considering the housing of the poor
and contrasting the conditions in this
and other countries. These lectures
are free to the public and deserve
hearty support.
SIEG BREAKS INTO PRINT
Manager of Union Gets Publicity at
Cincinnati Convention
WUmer Sieg of the local Union was
given honorable mention in one of the
Cincinnati papers last week for hav
ing traveled about 3000 miles to at
tend the gathering of commission mer
chants held there. The item says:
WUmer Sieg of Hood River, Oregon,
representing the Bex Apple Distribu
tors' Association of the Northwest,
traveled approximatoly 3000 miles to
attend the convention of the National
League of Commission Merchants In
this city. Mr. Sieg looks after the in
terest of Eastern consumers of apples
In the Hood River district in Oregon,
where he declares the finest apples in
the world are grow n. After he had
been In Cincinnati three hours during
which time he viewed the ruins of the
two recent downtown fires, paid a visit
to two large office buildings and sur
veyed the new Union Central Life In
surance skyscraper, Mr. Sieg declared
that he believed Cincinnati Is the best
most progressive and thoroughly up-to-
date city in the United Staes.
R. D. Carrier Nearly Perishes
White Salmon Worn out tramping
through tho snow after his team hail
broken w ay from tho sled, W. L. Olsen,
mail carrier, fell exhausted In his
tracks while on his way to the Bristol
postoffice and would have perished had
not Bert Ra'h, a rancher found him.
The team pulled Olsen over the dash
board and dragged him some distance
before stopping. Placing the mall
sacks, made heavy by parcels post, on
the horses, he endeavored to follow
them to some house but finally
dropped.
PACKER PREOICTS
STRONGER MARKET
A dispatch to the latest Issue of The
Packer from Chicago states that ap
ple holders consider that the outlook
for a successful close to this year's
apple deal is far more promising now,
due to the disastrous freeze this week
in the California citrus fruit belt Ap
ple operators to a man express sym
pathy for the orange growers on the
coast and regret is heard on every
hand. Reports Indicate that fully 60
per cent of the oranges in Southern
California have been ruined and the
balance may show more or less poor
quality due to the freeze. Apples and
oranges are strong competitors and It
is figured that a material decrease in
the citrus fruit supply will cause a
corresponding increase in the demand
for apples. It Is therefore predicted
that the prevailing prices of apples
from now on will be higher than
might have been expected had not the
California freeze occurred.
NOTED MUSICIANS
Waldteufel, the greatest French
waltz composer of the present day,
Dudley Buck and other noted music
ians have written some fine selections
especially for the peerless Schubert
Lady Quartette of Chicago. You will
enjoy every minute of their entertain
ment here on February 11 under the
auspices of the Elks because it is
bright and entertaining from begin
ning to end.
