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 COMPANY
IS FIVEYEARS OLD
It ub five years ago last Tuesday
that Clarence F. 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. For
merly small shipments were made
each day, and were carried from one
railroad yard to another by dray Ac
cording to the new ruling a car will
be set in the Mt. Hood yards on Tues
days and Fridays and switched to
the O.-W. II. & S. freight station.

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. BETTER THAN SPANKING
