THE HOOD RIVER NEWS, WEDNESDAY, MAY 14, 1913 t X X t x t ISP After the Doctor-- THE DRUGGIST 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.

Gilbert first "broke Into" the implement business In this city and he is to be congratulated upon the buuliiess success which he has achieved. At the time Mr. Gilbert bought the business he was agent for the Cadil lac automobile and asked J. It. Nickel- sen, the proprietor for space In the show window to display a car. Upon looking over the Implement business at close range, Mr. Gilbert took a liking to it and within two weeks had purchased the business from Mr. Nickelsen. Some of his charitably disposed friends warned Mr. Gilbert that he didn i know plow from a harrow and that one year would convince him of the fact. Five year8 have passed since then and Mr. Gilbert is still unconvinced. lie lost no time In thoroughly familiarizing himself with the Implement business, which he now knows from A. to Izzard. To the usual line of implements he add ed automobiles, gas engine supplies and sprayers. At the time he took the business there were only half a dozen surayers In the valley. Since then his company has sold to local orchardists 130 Ilardie Sprayers. Of the 155 automobiles in the valley 87 have been sold through this firm. One of the secrets of Mr. Gilbert's .success has been the fact that he has not been satisfied with making a sale. He has followed the imple ment to the farm and guaranteed sat iBfction by keeping it in repair. That this policy has commended Itself to the rancher Is evidenced by the rapid growth in the number of Mr. Gilbert's patrons during the ffve years. He has also been a consistent advertiser in the local papers. During this period there has been associated with Mr. Gilbert In the conduct of the business ". L. Stew art, C. H. Vaughan and M. H. Nickel sen. He is now associated with Har ry T. Dewltt and Dr. E. D. Kanaga. FROST HURTS ROGUE RIVER . Prof. P. J. O'Gara, Jackson Coun ty pathologist, has given out the fol lowing statement regarding the fruit crop in the Hogue River Valley: "The fruit crop will be larger this year than last. The first estimates of frost damage were much over drawn, as is usually the case. Or chards that heated, as most of the large producers did, were untouched, as were those of the foothills. "Although It is a little early to de termine the full amount of injury caused by tl.e last frost, it is never theless certain that many of the val ley floor orchards where heating was not practised are more or less injured. The foothills seem to be uninjured, as are the heated orchards on the valley floor. REMOVE SWITCHING CHARGE Through adjustments that have been made, patrons of the Mt. Hood Railroad Company living in the Up per Valley will be able to ship freight direct over the O.-W. R. & N. Com pany's lines without payment for the transfer of the shipments here.

WENATGHEE DEFERS ACTION OJTCOMBINE Wenatchee growers were so engros sed In a fight betwetu two factions at their annual meting that they took no action last wet-k In regard to amal gamation ywith the North Pacific Dis tributors. ' W. L. Clark, who has been head of the Fruit Growers' Association, head ed one of the factions, while Conrad Rose, president of the Wenatchee Produce Company, headed the other. The Rose faction proposed to pur chase the produce company and com bine it with the association. Mr. Clark was the successful candidate. He Is president of the North Pacific Distributors. "The trustees o fthe North Pacific Distributors did not expect the Wen atchee Fruit Growers' Association to take any action on affiliation with the central agency at Its meeting last week," said H. C. Sampson, secretary of the distributors' organization. "The trustees have made It a rule that each district must work out the problem for itself, and it was under stood that association matters at Wen atchee would keep the growers inter ested at their annual meeting with out any discussion of the question of affiliation with the central agency." Mr. Sampson wants a mass meet ing called of Wenatchee valley grow ers. "The calling of the meeting," he said, "will not commit the Wenatchee growers to the central agency plan, but will give them an opportunity which, up to the present they have not had, to hear representatives of the central agency present their plan for marketing and distributing." The annual meeting of the North Pacific Fruit Distributors will be held May 19 in Spokane. Before that time it is expected definite action toward the distributors' organization wll be taken in all the districts. Hood River has been waiting to see whether Wenatchee would join the distributors before taking definite ac tion.
