Hood River, Den. 6, 1897. Editor Glacier: I noticed a letter in your last issue from S. E. Bartmess, con cerning our strawberry growers, in which the points nre well taken and should arouse every member of the Hood River Fruit Growers' Union to immediate action. There lias been two meetings called by the offh-eiH of the union for the pur pose of making some changes in our by-laws, but neither meeting had a quorum, which I believe has certainly been somewhat discouraging to its of ficers and members. There is one all important problem awaiting solution at the hands of the berry growers of Hood River valley, and that is Freight rates! . How will you solve it? There may be two ways of solving the question before us. The first and best for all concerned is to unite in one plain, common' union, wherein busi ness can be transacted as one man; then we are in a position to make de mands aid see that the things de manded for the reduction of rates are complied with. The other method of scattering shipments needs no men tion, for it means destruction of. the strawberry business to three-fourths of the persons now engaged in it. Will there be union and strength, or shall we die through dismemberment? Will we Work ou business methods, or shall we cut each other's throats in this berry business? Let us ask ourselves these questions and then ask if we want one union or two, or none? J. W. Morton. Wants a Cannery. Hood River, Dec. 6, 1897. Editor Glacier: While there is a good deal lieing said about the marketing of our fruit and how we are going to ship next season, a little talk on the subject may not be amiss. Every one has his ideas about the best way to ship. The ' old adage, "in union there is strength," would be in part true jn our case if we could all unite, but when some are pulling one way and others another way and each party 'looking out for himself, how is the union going to stand? The people are not all satisfied with the way our fruit was handled this year. I haven't so much fault to find with the union, but when one party ships good fruit Mid another poor fruit, and all is averaged up, the party thut ships the good fruit has to suffer I he loss. I am informed that even this year the good, bright fruit commanded a good figure. Now, where is the fault? Some one please inform us. I think the best thing we can do to overcome the poor prices we get for our fruit is to start a cannery It has been demonstrated beyond a doubt that the fruit growers of Hood River lose more fruit every year than would put up a cannery and pay for it in a year's time. Now, it is left with the business people of Hood River to put up this cannery, for that is where it belongs. If. you don't take ad van tage of this opportunity we will put it up at Frankton. So, wake up, you business men of Hood River, and do something for your country for once. Yours in kindness, Richard Kibbyson. The curfew ordinance, compelling children and youths under 15 years of age to be boused in their homes at night after the hour of 9 o'clock in sum mer and 8 o'clock in winter, is having good effect in the 300 cities and towns in the United States where the ordi nance Is enforced. If parents cannot see the folly of allowing children to run wild in the streets at night it is well that the law can step in and prevent it. Judge Wellhouse of Kansas, the" ap ple king of the world, who has planted apple trees for 30 years and now has an orchard of 100,000 trees, considers thrifty two-year-old trees the best for planting, though a year older, he says, are not objectionable. ;,, ' Under existing mail contracts none but letter mail is carried to the Klon dike. . . The item published in the Glacier three weeks ago concerning the big po tatoes raised ou the Button ranch has gone the rounds of our exchanges with more or less comment not always flat tering to the author of the big potato story. However, the story was true. The latest comment is by the Crook County Journal, which says: Up till a few days ago a Hood River preacher carried the belt as champion potato Drevarioator of the 'Northwest. He had called a neighbor lamed Joe Purser to witness that a Hood River ranch had produced a potato weighing h pounds. Now Purser comes out himself in the Glacier and says that that kind of a spud is not a circum stance to what occurred just across the river, wnere he pulled up a hill ot po tatoes that numbered 1191 Next!

There was quiie a large gather ing of the friends of these young peo ple and an excellent programme whs rendered, which consisted of speaking, sinking, instrumental music, dialogues and pantomimes.

The Tin Wedding. . One of Hood River's largest and pleasantest social events occurred last Friday evening when Mr. and Mrs. A. P. Bateham celebrated their tin wed ding. At 9 o'clock, to the strains of Mendelsohn's wedding march, the happy couple, with their little daugh ter. Maud as riug oearer, in arc lieu into the hall down stairs, when the Rev. J. L. Hershner performed the cere mony with an original ritual of his own, which introduced several start ling innovations, but which was Doubt less strictly binding, for he closed by pronouncing tnem wedded according to the laws of Oregon and the corpora tion of Hood River. After another hour of sociability, during which re freshments were served, dancing was commenced by those so inclined and enjoyed for two hours or more. .There was a glittering array ot preseuts.many of wkich created great merriment. Hon. E. L. Smith presented Mr, Bate ham with a very tall tin hat (made by Dallas the Hatter), acoompaning the gift with a speech in which he empha sized Its many good points, chief of wti icli was that it would provide the recipient with a suitable hat in which he could attend church regularly in all weatner. A patent masher bore these lines: 'TIs now a full decade -Since first the "mash" was made Which was consummated byyour wedding tie; in a ume 01 so great lengm, If that masher has lost its strength. Here's another we would gladly have you try. The numerous and hearty congrat ulations showered upon the freshly married couple evinced their popular ity as neighbors and entertainers. A Strange Case. One day last week, while Mr. P. F. Bradford was bunting ducks in the sloughs above his place he was called to the house or Mr. Warner, where two children of Charley Koover had just arrived, and one, a little girl 8 years old, with a bullet in her neck, which they claimed had been fired from a pistol in the hands of their brother Jack, 17 years old. Koover's wife is an Indian woman and the children could not converse intelligently in English. All that could be learned from them was that Jack was "heap bad" and snot nis utile sister. The child was suffering considerably but was not dan gerously hurt. An amusing incident happened in connection with this story. The young man that called Mr. Brad ford first called to Bradford's compan ion, who was further up the slough, ana really was poaching on somebody's preserves, iseing slightly hard of hear ing, a guilty conscience helped him to imagine tuat the young man was or dering hiai off the premises, and Le lost no time in getting away from the sound of the young man's voice, who Kept calling tor the hunter to come to him. Uut he was rewarded for run ning away by soon after meeting with a deer, which he managed to cripple with his small rifle, when Jack Koover happened along and killed the deer, and the venison was divided between them. - A suit is on trial in Justice Prather's court as we go to press.
