FRIDAY, DKUJiMUER 21, 1900.
In another column will be found bd
interesting write-up of Hood River by
E. Hofer, editor of the Salem Daily
Journal. Mr. Hofer visited our horti
cultural fair in October. Hit time has
since been occupied so that he did not
write up his notes taken on that occa
sion till the issue of the Journal of Dec.
13th. He very kindly maiied 100 copies
of his paper of that date to the Glacier,
and they have been given out where
they will do the most good. The Salem
Daily Journal is an independent paper
that has something to say on all public
questions of interest to the state or na
tion. It is a member of the Associated
Press, and we believe the only news
paper in the state outside of Portland
taking a report of the Associated Press
dispatches. Its editor is a good friend
of Hood River, and to any of our cit
izens wishing to tafro a daily paper from
the state capital during the session of
the legislature we can say that none is
more fearless than the Journal in giving
its opinions and speaking for the best
interests of the state. The Daily Jour
nal is sent to subscribers for the low
price of $3 a year; $1 for four months.
Portland will not ask for appropria
tions from the legislature and congress
for an exposition in 1902, but will cel
ebrate the centennial of the Lewis and
Clark expedition of 1804-5 with a big ex
position. The Oregon Historical Society
has taken the matter in hand, and there
is every prospect that a great North Pa
cific exposition will be held in 1905 that
will do honor to the men who, one hun
dred years ago, overcame all obstacles
in navigating unknown rivers and tra
versing the wilderness in their trip of
4,000 miles from St. Louis to the mouth
of the Columbia.
Considerable talk is being indulged in
about the division of the state of Oregon
on the line of the Cascade mountains,
making two states. The only benefit to
be derived from a division that we can see
would be that it would give us two more
U. S. senators and more offices to go
round. The state is too thinly popu
lated to make division popular. All of
our state institutions would be crippled
by division. Politicians might like to
see the number of offices doubled, but
taxpayers will bo slow to ask or vote for
an increase of taxes.
The Chicago. Chronicle, one of the
greatest of the great independent news
papers of the country, is more quoted
from than any paper we know of. Its
editorial writers are of the best. Its
pages are made up every day with the
happenings of the world gotten up in
faultless style, aud its illustrations are
superb. The price of the Dally Chron
icle is $4 a year; the Sunday edition,
48 pages, hotter than any magazine, 2
a year. '
Portland licenses gamblers aud the
owners of slot machines by rour ding
them up once a month and making
them pay a fine. A correipuudent of
the Oregonian jocularly asks the same
privilege for the "gentlemanly burglar"
let him pay a fine, enrich the city
treasury and resume business.
The Heppner Gazette, the pioneer
paper of Morrow county, has enlarged
to a six-page paper. The Gazette Is
ably edited and illustrated by Colonel
J. Watermelon Redington, the pioneer
Journalist and discoverer of the Heppner
Hills. The Gazette is a welcome ex
change. Champ Clark, democratic congress
man from Missouri, says he gained 20
pounds during the camprign the only
democratic gain he heard of this year.
The cabbage crop was a failure in the
East this year, and now only the well-to-do
can afford sauer-kraut mit speck
or corned beef and cabbage.

A few years ago cordwood was sold for
something like fl.25 a cord delivered on
the bank of the Columbia, but at the
present time parties have been offered
as high as $2.10 per cord. We believe
the steamboats are now paying $2.50 per
cord delivered on the wharves, and we
predict that the time is not far distant
when it will cost them $3. The timber
in close proximity to the river is becom
ing very scarce, and when it is neces
sary to go farther back in the woods, the
expense of hauling will naturally raise
the price. Pioneer.

Hood River as Seen by an Editor.
The Journal man accompanied by a very
competent guide, inspiration and critic
bad the pleasure of being whisked out to
Hood River one beautiful Indian sum
mer morning just before the presiden
tial election. It is not possible to take a
prettier short trip in fall of year than a
few hours ride from Salem to the center
of the fruit growing region of Wasco
county, the morning ride down the
Willamette, through French Prairie,
past the Falls of the Willamette, formerly
called Multnomah, through the great
rustling port of Portland, past the ship
ping of all nations, up the mighty Col
umbia, with its rocks and cascades in
profusion enough to almost call it a gar
den of the gods, until we come to our
destination.
Hood River is perched on the shoulder
of the mountain that is formed at the
junction of the snowy, leaping river flow
ing directly from Oregon's most majes
tic snow peak. At first you see but a row
of store buildings ana warehouses a
few cosy hotels and saloons that look as
if they wore struggling for an existence.
After lunch a walk up the terraced
streets revealed a charming residence
portion,with plenty of churches and
school buildings, capped with a high
school, and on top of the mountain
spreading orchards and residences in all
directions. Most magnificent in effect
of all on the town site are the groups of
gigantic oak trees that we have nowhere
seen equaled for beauty.
As we turned to go down into the city
again a panorama was spread out bofore
our eyes to the north revealing the grand
outlines of Mt. Adams, the winding
canyon of the White Salmon, and in the
depths at our feet the deep blue mirror
of the Columbia, plowed by steamers
going up and down the river. A grove
of towering firs and great pines hide the
town below. At our back was the
spreading riches of the high bench land
planted for miles with orchards and
berry patches, interspersed with cosy
suburban farm homes, water running by
the roadside and ready to have its fertil
izing flow directed into every field. The
roads were excellent of smooth, sandy
gravel and wide enough for several fast
teams to trot alongside, clattering mer
rily homeward from the little city at the
toot of the mountain.
We next gave our attention to the an
nual fruit fair, the secretary being a
former Iowa friend whose urgent invita
tion had persuaded us to visit this little
paradise that had so many revelations
of beauty and resource in store. A pa
vilion about 200 feet long was filled on
both sides and with tiers of fruit on dis
play through the middle. The aisles
were crowded with hundreds of farmers
and orcbardists and town people and
nearly everybody seemed to nave some
thing on exhibition, and the zeal and
animation on the faces of all plainly told
the story of great local pride in their
industry and enterprise. Hardly any
body in the city but has a fruit tract in
the country, and hardly anybody for ten
miles in the country but feels he is
wholly or in part a resident of Hood
River. Nowhere have I folt the spirit
of united interest between city and
country so strongly present as in this
little valley and its commercial and
banking city. Hood River is like the bot
tom of the pocket for a big, healthy,
DrosDerous rancher, where the results of
his labors are jingling in most concrete
lorm.
One cannot enumerate in a short
newspaper article all the show of fruit
displayed under even this small canvas
pavilion. The apples predominated
over all, as Oregon seems to be the home
of the apple. But there were grand dis
plays of peaches, pears, quinces and other
iruus. mo wonaenui iaci nuuuiune in'
dustry.isthatiu ten years what wasa sen
i-wilderneBs in the heartof the mountains
has been brought to a high state of pro'
ductlvity, and there are thousands of
acres in smiling orchards, bearing wealth
and producing tiappiness, where Nature
gave no sign tnat aiie lntenuea tnese somi
troolcal fruits to crow. Only last
season 37,000 cratefrof fresh strawberries
were shipped Irora here to the markets
of the large cities, and Hood River
strawberries are known from New Or
leans to Manitoba and throughout the
Rocky mountain region as the best berry
the world produces.
I asked thousands of questions of the
trult growers here and it would take
book to print their answers and experi
ences. But one fact shone forth and
that was with the climate, soil, mountain
air and enterprise, coupled with transport
ation facilities, they had a bonanza and
were aware of it. I will tell a few sto
ries of yield : Three acres of Baldwins
produced 1000 boxes. A six year old
orchard yielded 200 boxes per acre of
Newtowns and Ben Davis. A ten year
old orchard this year brought its owner
Z,40U boxes. A 6 acre crop on the trees,
brought its owner $650 this fall and he had
nearly $100 worth of leavings not con
sidered good enough for shippers. Hon.
E. L. Smith's orchard has paid expen
ses ever since it was six years old and
Mr. Smith is too modest a man and too
good a politician to tell how much it
has netted him. He is quietly putting
all be can into apples.
But this is not all fairyland. There
are some drawbacks. It takes some
years to get an orchard into bearing. In
the mean time strawberries and small
fruits must be pushed to make a living.
But they are a sure thing., Then there are
snow falls and some years ago a freeze
that took nearly half of some orchards
But the valley is not one-tenth devel
oped, mere are at least 50,000 acres
that can be made into orchards of the
greatest commercial value The West
Side only is supplied with irrigation
The East Side will be in the near future
These bench lands that make orchards
are 400 to 800 and 1200 feet altitude.
Snows fall two to four feet deep and
the Chinook winds come and lick them
into slush. The higher lands are almost
unexplored but enough is known to
make it certain that they are the peach
lands. One day a rail road, to Mt. Hood will
open a perfect wilderness of peach or
chards to the markets of the world and
such peaches as the world has not yet
seen, and in the presence of which so
called California fruit will take off its
hat and blush with shame.
We closed the trip to Hood River with
a drive up the river, across the head of
the valley aud hack through the orchard
belt. We drove through miles of or
chards the fruit whereof literally cov
ered the ground and many of the trees
covered it two and three deep. The
more proliflo varieties have to be propped
and braced up and aie reeling and strug
gling to carry their load of hundred-fold
intoxication. Look down the winrows
of apples half a mile long and alternat
ing red and gold. Here and there is an
unfortunate tree broken down with its
own overflow of wealth. In the pavilion
I counted 83 varieties of named kinds of
apples all displayed not on plates but in
bushel boxes.
We thought we had seen some oi the
finest mountain scenery in the West.
We had crossed on nearly all the trans
continental routes, from the Canadian
Paeiflo through the awe-inspiring Sel
kirks to the wonderful scenery of the
Rio Grande and royal canvons . of the
Colorado. But a half day drive up the
east side of the Hood River eanyon and
back across down the west side reveals
new wonders of nature and discounts
any previous sight in the way of moun
tain scenery. We climb the toilsome,
steop promontory east of the town until
the river is a thin blue thread in the
vast depths below. A turn of the road
brings us out on the edge of the moun
tain wall about 2000 feet above the city.
In the foreground are miles noon miles
of forests checkered with squares of or
chards and noat residences glittering in
tne sunlight, ibeeyo mounts terrace
by terrace of evergreen verdure until it
meets the skyline southwest where
stands Mt. Hood, serene and unapproach
able, mistress and queen of all the prin
cesses of the air. rearinz her head above
all the wealth of nature spread at her
leet, spreading her Dridal trams oi snowy
garments in all directions. We had seen
Hood from all directions, but we had
never seen a snow mountain before.
Never before had we stood at a point in
a happy, smiling;, fruitful valley com
pletely surrounded by a rim of snow
peaks, with Hood as sentinel to the
south and Adams to the north a pano
rama resttul yet of surpassing grandeur.
Across the valley we penetrate masses
of pine, fir and oak timber that is worth
fortunes to tbe lumber companies that
win ciear tne tana and make it ready lor
the yet greater harvests of wealth that
will come from the orcharding as it is
carried on here with commercial skill
and true western grit and enterprise.

If soft-shelled eggs appear in the poul
try house during the winter, the proper
thing to do is to cut down the feed the
morning feed, not the one which is given
in the afternoon. Soft-shelled eggs are
almost positive proof that the hens are
too fat, and the beet way to get rid of
the fat is to make the hens work it off
in the scratching material. For the
