' Because the' season, was mt first cold and- backward It was feared by many tbsA tbs strawberry fp mt Hood River would not show as large a yield as last year.' . When the sunshine finally burst upon that favored locality all lost time was speedily mad "p. tAst year's estimates of the O. R. ft K. Ca's freight department showed that th yield would approximate 600 tons, wedustvo bf the shipment made by express, and that this year's would reach KW tons. The Northern Padfle freight department has figures showing that up. to Friday Inst tier were earloads of strawberries shipped out as : freight from Hood "Rivet, These figures are practically the Sam as those 'compiled by the O. St. ft. JI, Co. ' ' General Freight Agent Miller, of the 0. R. A N. Co.. M thls 'moming tbt he must agree with the Northern FaciflC' In eaylns that the strawberry', season at Hood River for 191 Is practlcallg ov, Mr. MUier, thinks .that the Increase this year Is about "25. per cent , above that of last year, whloh would make 'the yield ISO tons more than then, oc 7SD tone in all. If. to-this 4 added what was seat Out by wrprens, -the stltnate of 900 tons for the season would probably sot be too much. f - River Excursion. There were several river excursions yesterday.

It would bava bees an easy matter for th are department to have saved the East Side Lumber Company's plant, th Johnston shipyards, the Madison-street bridge, sd consider able ether property that "went up In smoke.
