HOOD RIVER DAY AT
BOUT 60 miles east of Portland
the north side of Mount Hood to the Columbia
river is a valley lying on both sides of Hood
"river that has gained world wide reputation on account
f it fruity particularly its apples and strawberries.- A
quarter of a century ago its inhabitants were few; now
!they number several thousands, and there -is no more
prosperous, contented community in the country. 'The
early settlers there discovered that the soil and climate
,' we're 'particularly adapted to the raising of these fruits,
; others: dent in there and joined the pioneers in this
occupation and. now scores of carloads of strawberries
'are shipped from there every summer while the Hood
River apples are celebrated not only In all large American
. cities but in Europe and across the Pacific, bringing, it
j is. said, the. highest price paid for apples inr the world.
J 1 Once an orchard is in bearing it is very profitable,
: frequently netting the growers $200 or $300 an acre
annually and occasionally much more than this Other
products can be and are raised there the soil is rich,
j timber and water are plentiful; a few acres it all that a
man needs to support a family; ahd there is room there
for thousands more." It has been estimated that not
more than one tenth the area of Hood River valley is yet
i fully utilized. The stream of that name and others fur
tnish abundant water power, and there is ho, reason why
I this remarkable valley should not in time contain 25,000
or 30,000 people,, of which a due proportion will be tn-
habitants' of the' flourishing city of Hood River.' While
western' Oregon produces fine apples and other fruits
the climate is not such as. to give, them the delightful
, tart flavor that makes Hood River and southern Oregon
. J fruits famous. Apple raising is a growing industry in
. Oregon, and .will become a very profitable oneand
'" Hood River valley will continue to be a-leading and
v favorite region in which to , pursue this pleasant and
' jrontabIe occupation, .--....,., ' . :x,.v.
rThia i Hood Riveriday -at- the Lewis and lartt ex
position, and the good people of that town and valley
:are here in force. They are not deterred by " a little
- 'rain; they are used to that; and they are properly proud
; ;of their products, which, especially the big red apples,
fare much in evidence. Easten people will all, we hope,
. have an opportunity to , test this delicious fruit, and
'having done so it is safe to say that they will agree that
these apples cannot be excelled.- The people of Hood
"Sliver, though roost "of them own . comparatively small
jtracts, pf land, are thrifty, prosperous and progressive.
)They comprise a wide-awake community such as the
'whole state can point to with pride and pleasure. They
. nave helped to make the fair a success, and we hope
'.they will enjoy it and profit by it ; . ...'

SENATOR HEYBURN.
OW far right or wrong Senator Heyburn may
be in the matter of Idaho forest reserves is a
! matter open to discussion, but that he has a
against the withdrawal of Such immense
set forth his reasons therefor; is cer
tain. It does not appear Jhst he is opposed to the ad
ministration's forest reserve policy as a whole, but only
to the application of that policy, in the case of the Idaho
reserves. He has long lived in that state and is familiar
wrth-condittomr thererand .as neenator-har a-Tighrto
express his honest opinions. - '', -V ! ; f
wrong he may be in the matter of the
reserves, he has done nothing to merit this continual
persecution by the Oregonian. : The interests of Oregon
and Idaho are closely linked together. Idaho is a part
of the old Oregon country and most of Idaho's surplus
products should naturally find an exit through Portland
Oregon wants large appropriations for the improvement
of. the Columbia river and other favors at the hands of
congress, and thus to malign and persecute a senator of
$ sister state is inflicting a possible injury upon Oregon.

: Mlas Lilian E. Tinglshas returned to
reopen her crusade against lnaigestlble
gravies and sodden biscuits.
The school of domeatio science, wnrcn
acquired such great popularity during
its short reign last year, will soon be
opened again in the same quarters. But
it waa with horror that Miss Tingle
returned the other day to find those
same immaculate, steamed, whitewashed
and fumigated quarters occupied by a
restaurant where sanitary cooking. - ta
bles of exact measurement and scien
tifically approved cooking utensil are
an unknown quantity. . .-.
A number of new feat urea are to be
introduced thla year la the way . of new
courses. One of . the Interesting inno
vations, will be demonstration talks
twice a week at the T. W. C A. for
working girls,- showing what they can
do with aa alcohol lamp. The "Anti
Fudge and Chafing-dish Brigade" o no
bly started by eastern college girls
with a leaning toward dresa reform.
will find a formidable enemy la the
ranks of these economical ones who will
be taught to cook breakfaat by the mid
night OIL . - i
'A few years ago," said Mlas Tingle,
' "hospital training did not have the pop
ular stand it now haa, but the stand
ard has been raised and now every other
girl who wants te beeome Independent
considers the trained . nurse . course.
There' Is no reason why there should
not be the same eagerneea to enter, the
field of domeatio science. We hope in
time to raise the standard of domeetlo
service and to make room for; an Intel
llgent class of girls.
Normal classes will be Introduced Into
the school this year that women may
be able to give thetr.own maids In
struction. There will be a special
course f or teachera aet at an hour con
venient for all. So again Miss Tingle
disregards a publlo decree and is ready
to encourage . among school teachers
what the directors are going to great
lengths to discourage. There will be
the usual course in general cookery.
and the special abort eoursea In special
dishes, the classes for schoolgirls and
the classes for. maids, snd finally,
new course In sewing will be installed.
