After the Doctor--
THE DRUQQ1ST
The doctor's work is only half
what has to be done for 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.

ATTEMPT MADE TO
BLOW MOSIER SAFE
Local officers were notified last
week to look out for two men who bad
attempted to blow tbe vault of the
Mobler Valley Bank at Mosler. One of
the three alleged safe breakers was
captured at Mosler shortly after the
attempt, which failed because the
"soup" or preparation of nltro-glycerin
failed to work properly.
Robert M. Ross, cashier of the
bank, went to Portland and returned
to discover that safeblowers bad been
working on the vault. lie first notl
fled Sheriff Chrisman of The Dalles
and the latter went to Mosler to in
vestlgate. The official learned that
Adrian Schoonover, who resides at Mo
sler, had purchased a drill from.
hardware dealer. Tbe drill purchas
ed by Schoonover was the same size
as the hole bored In the door. The
sheriff Immediately placed Schoonover
under arrest. After a "sweating" the
prisoner confessed to having been im
plicated in the deed and told the sher
iff all about It.
Schoonover has a cabin in Mosier,
where he has been living for a few
months. Joe Clark, alias "Postoffice
W'hitie," and a Frenchman known as
Manitoba Frenchle," came to Mosler
the day before the attempt and the
Job" was planned in Schoonover's
cabin. Clark is an ez-convlct, having
served his last term at Bismark, N. D.
The Frenchman is also an ex-convict.
Both men are acquaintances of
Schoonover's and together they were
perpetrators of several robberies in
this section, according to the prison
er's confession. A supply of dynamite
was secured and the burglars boiled it
to make nltro-glycerin, a method
known to professional safeblowers as
making "soup." Schoonover says the
soup" was not a success and they
failed to do the job.
The prisoner gave good descrip
tions of his partners and officers in
the surrounding country were notified
to watch for them.
AITCHISON SHOWN UP
Commissioner Chortles Over Sad Tale
of Suffragist
(Dalles Chronicle)
This is a pitiful little yarn for suffra
gists.
Slow music, please. The orchestra
will kindly oblige with "Hearts and
Flowers."
Silence for Mr. Aitchison.
Ahem.
But yesterday Clyde Aitchison, rail
road commissioner, was a heartless,
crew-el wretch. He was gloating. As
he traveled to Hood River from Port
land, as a lap on his journey through
The Dalles today to Biggs, where he
will hold a meeting, he grinned with
fiendish glee.
Listen to him as he told the story.
"I have a girl friend In Portland
an ardent suffrage worker. The other
day she went to register and the reg
istration clerks told her she is a for
eigner.
' 'Foreigner,' she screamed, 'Why I
was born and raised In Oregon."
'Then she was reminded that she
had married a man who came to this
country from England when a boy and
has never become naturalized. So
when my friend darried she became
an Englishwoman and can't vote.
"If she wants to vote, she can't un
less she becomes naturalized and she
can't become naturalized unless her
husband gives his consent.
"She has one other alternative to
force him to become naturalized. She
says she will do this but hubby may
have another story."
Then Aitchison chortled horribly.
Ye Gods! Won't someone slay the
tyrant.
Curtain drops amid subdued sound
of sobs.
ROAD WORK IS PLANNED
Plans are being made by the county
court for the Improvement of several
strips of road this spring. The road
at Van Horn extending from the
Grange Hall north about half a mile
past the warehouses wil be surfaced
with crushed rock. The Dothman-Eg
germont Road will also be given some
crushed rock and there will be some
Improvement on the West Side In the
Belmont district.
The county court is handicapped by
lack of another crusher, It being nec
essary to make a long haul to some
parts of the lower valley. They are
planning to erect another crusher
when a proper site can be secured.
HE KNEW THE BRAND
Mrs. Noowede (weeplngly) You
don't love me anymore. You gave all
those beautiful cigars I gave you for
Christmas to the janitor and the hall
boy.
Noowede Don't cry, darling, they
will bring them back soon.
With paving done those muddy
streets will be only a reminiscence.
FROST WARNINGS
WILL BE SENT OUT
During April and May, when frost
may be expected In the Portland fore
cast district, comprising Oregon, Wash
lngton and Idaho, the Chief of the
Weather Bureau, Professor Willis L.
Moore, baa arranged to have in seven
localities trained men on the ground
prepared to amplify the district warn
lngs by notifying fruit raisers just
what minimum temperatures may be
expected on frosty mornings.
Tre names of the localities where
Professor Moore has arranged for this
service, and the assistants named for
handling tbe local end of the work are
as follows:
Rogue River Valley (Ashland to
Grants Pass) Professor P. J. O'Gara,
Medford, Oregon.
Hood River Valley (entire valley)
Professor W. H. Lawrence, Hood Riv
er, Oregon.
Yakima Valley (Naches to Pasco)

Professor Lawrence has cooperating
with him here in making observa
tions 10 ranchers located In different
parts of the valley and each one equip
ped with the necessary instruments.
There Is little danger from frosts,
however, although slight damage is
sometimes done to orchards located
in cold "pockets."
BITULITHIC PAVING TO BE LAID
AT VICTORIA, B. C.
One of the leading cities of the North
west to lay bltulitnlc this season Is
Victoria. Much work will be done and
many streets which have heretofore
presented an unsightly appearance
will soon help to Increase the beauty
and attractiveness of Victoria.
After a thorough investigation, it
was decided to use Dituutnic on ac
count of the fact that it is not only
serviceable and admirably adapted to
every day tramc conditions out be
cause It will last for years without re
pairs.
It is exceedingly annoying to resi
dents to have a street either worn out
in places or torn up for repairs, as
well from the standpoint of conven
ience as financially. For that reason
bitulithic which has made an excellent
record In other cities was chosen.

COMMUNICATION
On Church Unity
Editor, the News: I read the arti
cle In the News taken from the White
Salmon Enterprise on the federation
of churches, and the thought struck
me very forcibly that if the churches
would come together and drop all their
old Catholic forms and ceremonies and
get right down to bed rock on the
foundation that Christ laid and Paul
afterward organized it would be the
best move the churches ever made.
Perhaps you think that is out of
date. Yes, I know it Is a lamentable
fact that it Is out of date. The
churches have so many forms and
ceremonies, and creeds and denomina
tional names that people are all in
a muddle and do not know which de
nomination Is right or whether any of
them are. I think if all these different
roads to heaven had been necessary
the Iord would have had them all or
ganized at once; but we have no rec
ord of any except the one Paul organ
ized and what church today Is living
under the rules laid down by Paul and
his helpers? Now. who will make the
start In Hood River to federate the
churches In the town and valley on
the true foundation for a start In
the right direction?
This Is not written In a spirit of
criticism but simply stating the facts
as I see them.

FROST INJURIES OF
FRUITS ARE STUDIED
In a chapter on seedless and mal
formed fruits in the biennial crop re
port of the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege Experiment Station, F. R. Brown
says:
mere nas appeared each year,
sometimes in all parts of the state,
and again only in one or more districts
an injury to fruits making them more
or less unsaleable. This has been at
tributed to various causes by the grow
erg, some calling it spray injury, be
cause of its resemblance to the well-
known Bordeaux Injury, others giving
the cause as apple scab because the
tissues affected act In much the same
manner as when attacked by the scab,
But those who have studied the mat
ter agree that it is the effect of a
frost occurring after the fruit has set."
Mr. Brown quotes Bailey, Smith,
and M. Chevallier, all fruit author!
ties, on the subject, and continues:
"During the last two years we have
had occasion to study the action of
frosts on apples, pears and prunes and
find that a light frost occurlng after
the fruit has set will sometimes cause
a russeting on the surface of the fruit
On the pear this usually appears as a
band, extending entirely around the
fruit at or near the calyx end.
In mature fruit it may be as much
as half an inch from tbe calyx, from
half an inch to an inch wide, usually
causing a contraction at that place.
During the season of 1911 this injury
appeared in one orchard on d'Anjou
pears, while Bartletts on one side and
Winter Nellls on the other did not
show any effect of frost. The injury
could be detected by the time the
fruit had become an Inch in length.
The frost Injury on apples and
prunes is different, as it appears usu
ally on one side of the fruit, some
times constricting the growth of tbe
tissues on that side and sometimes
stimulating them to abnormal growth.
Apples are less often russeted by
frost. They bloom so late that the
frost season is over by the time the
fruit has attained such a size that a
frost sufficient to cause a russeting
would not kill the fruit itself.
