HOOD RIVERS OPPORTUNITY
The following optimistic pre-
! diction is quoted from the Ore­
gonian of July 11:
It is not exaggeration to pre­
dict that each year there will he
.expended in Hood River coun­
ty, not including expenditures
for land, a new sum equal to, if
not more than, the principal of
the road bond issue if the bonds
carry at the election next
Wednesday. It will be money
that would not he expended in
Hood River county but for the
completion o f the Hood River
link of the Columbia River High-
! way.
In Multnomah county alone,
there are upwards of 8000 auto­
mobiles and motorcycles. As the
beauties of the journey become
known there will hardly he one
owner of a vehicle who will not
cover the trip at least once a sea­
son. Many will make the jour­
ney several times. Without a
doubt regular sightseeing trips
will lie inaugurated for visitors
and those who are not fortunate
enough to possess their own cars.
Add to this the tourist travel
attracted by the spreading fame
of the Columbia River Highway
and it is not difficult to forecast
immediate benefits. A small ex­
penditure by each traveler will
make up the $75,000. And they
are benefits exclusive of those
that will accrue to a community
that has latent opportunities,
once such opportunities are pre­
sented to the appreciative eye.
The Oregonian has heretofore
said that the character of the
road work required ami the pe­
culiar situation o f Hood River
county would justify state aid in
the building of its portion of the
highway.
But an acceptable
substitute for state aid is now
offered. S. Benson guarantees
that tiie bond proceeds amount-

Sherman county experienced
one o f the worst storms in its
history last Sunday, when wind
and hail damaged crops to the
extent o f a quarter o f a million
dollars. A special to the Orego­
nian from Moro says:
Property and crop damage
running into the hundreds of
thousands of dollars was done in
Sherman county on the east side
of the Deschutes valley Sunday
night when three distinct storms,
either as cloud-bursts or of heavy
hail, left a path of devastation
through hundreds of acres of
growing
__ grain.
I he damage to crops in this
coun
“ " ‘ y i» estimated as high as a
quar ter of a million dollars, in­
dividual farmers losing entire
grain crops on tracts ranging
from 640 to 900 acres.
The Sherman county storms
were more severe in the Monk-
land district, cast o f Moro, where
a severe rain tell; in the Shearar
grade district, where a cloud­
burst sent down a deluge of
water, and in a stretch of terri­
tory two miles wide reaching
from Kent to the John Day Riv­
er east of Rutledge.
Standing grain, ready for har­
vest, was mowed down and ren­
dered entirely worthless, altho
much unripened grain escaped
without severe damage.
Threshing was in progress in
the Monkland district when the
storm broke, hut the workers
were compelled to seek shelter,
leaving the cut grain at the mer­
cy o f the elements. The uncut
whoat was stripped of I lie stand­
ing heads wherever the storm’ s
fury was felt.
Reports from Shearar grade
district are meager and the ex­
tent o f the damage done there
is not available.
The hail storm that swept from
Kent to Rutledge broke about
two miles from Buck Hollow and
rushed, with awful damage to
all crops in its path, in a north­
easter I v direction.
