"Hood Iftver Slacier FRIDAY, AUGUST 22, 1902, Peregrinations of the Senior Editor. IBt week the peregrination of the Glacier man, senior, took biru to Dukes Valley, Willow Flat and the Oilell dis trict. He could not visit all the set tler in these localities tills trip, but may call upon the others later. "; Dukes Valley lies at the head of Odell creek. The little valley takes its name from a man named Dukes,, who-was the first settler. None of the present Inhabitants know anything about him The valley Is not very extensive; the two principal farms, owhed by non residents, take up most of the valley land. The best farm In the valley was formerly owned by J. H. Gerdes. , It Is now farmed by J. O. Cameron, who baa a lease for several years. Mr. Cam eron cultivates about forty acres to wheat, oats, timothy and clover. Be sides conducting this farm he has 40 acre of bay land leased on the Roberts place at Odell, and also runs a reaper and binder that cuts grain for the neighborhood. He cut 80 acres this season. The binding twine for the ma chine coats 20 cents an acre. The price of binding twine Is now 18 cents a pound; before the war with Spain It cost 8 cents a pound. J. A. Knox Is now the oldest settler in the valley. He has a good claim; with a nice young orchard, but being the blacksmith for the neighborhood, he has neglected the farm too much. He has 40 acres for sale that would make a good buy for any oue wishing to set out an apple orchard. The land is mostly In cultivation and ready for the setting of trees. The price he asks Is $50 an acre. ' John F. Dodson, another old settler, has a good piece of land but has worked away from home in the logging camps and neglected to Improve his place. His son, W. G. Dodson, has a claim here and is making a good start to wards farm and a home. C. II. Stan? ton has a good piece of land and is making good improvements. He has a young orchard and one of the best . gardens visited in our travels.' Kev. D. D. and A. T. Dodge have recently located homesteads in the foothills west of the valley, ' and as they are workers, will no doubt make good farms. There is some good saw timber iu the foothills, and a flue range for cattle. A new road laid out to Mount Hood passes through Dukes Valley and Is said to be the niost direct route. It needs considerable work to make It as good as the stage roaji now traveled. Charles A. Btutts has taken a home stead on the head of Odell creek. He has four acres cleared for apple trees next full. Leaving Dukes Valley, we next vis ited C. W. Murphy's homestead. Mr Murphy has recently removed from his his place on the Mount Hood road. He has a good start for a good farm." His garden Is doing well under the fnflu ence of whter from the Bone ditch, from which he can irrigate his whole place. Mr. Murphy will go largely into the cultivation of strawberries, which in this, the Willow Flat neigh borhood, is proving to be a valuable crop. C. R. Bone's homestead adjoins Mr. Murphy's. Mr. Bone is doing a grand work for Hood River. If the man who causes two blades of gross to grow where one grew before is called a benefactor, what term would be good enough for 6. R. Bone, by whose efforts the fertile lands of the East Bide are being' watered by the East Fork Ilrrl gating company's ditch? At the Davidson Fruit company's furm,on Willow Flat, we found Charles Davidson superintending the Irrigation of the 13-acre peach orchard and straw berry patch of the company. A force of Japs Is clearing more land, and the company will not stop until their 60 acres at this place are planted to straw berries and fruit trees of different binds. George Booth's place adjoining has proved that this section k one of the beat in Hood River valley for the grow ing of apples, pears, cherries, peaches and strawberries, and the Davidson Fruit company Is making good use of the experience gained by Mr. Booth ' The Glacier ma-i accepted an Invita- tUn to take dinner with Mr. Davidson, and we sat down and did full justice to an excellent farm dinner prepared by Mrs. A. Whitehead, Mr. Davidson's daughter, who with her child, Mary Whitmer, visited him several days last week. . The Odell district was next "visited William Odell, who came jto Hood River with D. A. Turner, settled here in 1861. He was well known through out Wasco county and much respected as a man. He died on his home place here about ten years ago. C. G; Rob erts, the well-knpwn wool buyer, man ages the original Odell farm. L. D. Boyed, the well-known builder and contractor, has a fine farm here of 160 acres, 35 in cultivation. He has 1200 apple trees, 500 in bearing; 42,000 straw berry plants, and will set 60,000 next spring. He has 12 acre in clover. Part of his laud lies on Willow Flat He has unimproved land fur sale at $35 an acre. F. XL Orr, who came here last March for health, has 25 acres, 8 in apple orchard, some of the trees bear ing. He has 8 acres In brush land which he wants to let contract to clear. He will plant several acres In strawber- rles next spring. Mr. Orr was ship ping clerk for a long time for Bell A Co. -of Portland, where he handled fruit from different sections, and when he decided to go Into fruit growing, naturally picked upon Hood River as the place where the best fruit came from. Charles Davis has one of the best places here.' It was formerly the J. W. Hinrirhs farm. Ills principal crop Is hay. He has three lare springs on the place, capable of irrigating all of ins extensive meadow lano. . une epring flows 40 inches of water. Mr. Davis finds sheep proinubie; he has a small band that he will add to until he has 200. i K. T. Foils, ou Mrs. George Booth's place, has quite an orchard of different varieties of fruit; has 4 acres In young strawberry plants; 5 acres in clover, not Irrigated, from which he harvested 10 tons of liny this season; he has some strawberry plants thai did well without water.' . Roswell Shelley has leased ground of the Odell school district, is erecting a store building and will open out a stock of goods in a few days, - With the store, the school house, the Union church, and the numerous dwellings near, this point will soon assume the dignity of a town and will need a name. The Gla cier man was asked to give the embryo town a name. He could think of no more appropriate name than Odell, the name the neighborhood has been known by for 40 years. It could be named after no better man than William Odell, for no better man ever lived in Hood River valley. Pro fessor Brown of Dufur has been made principal of the Odell school. The as sistant teacher has not yet been selected. B. T. Young, the well-known fiorse dealer, has 20 acres and a good home adjoining the Union church grounds. J. It. Crosby, across the road, has 30 acres of bis home place and 15 acres be sides. He has a neat dwelling house, 300 apple trees, and 12aores iu meadow. Mrs. E. Billon has 40 acres all cleared, upon which she has recently moved, with Hie family of her son-ia-law, Thomas Lacey. Mrs. Billon Is erecting an $800 dwelling house. C. Miekelson, the well-known carpenter and builder, Is doing the work, which is a guarantee of good work,. G. W.' Lafferty, who bought the Bulrrt place, has 30 acres and 400 bearing apple trees. William Ehrck, now one tof the old est settlers in the Odell neighborhood, has a fine farm and a good orchard. He received a gold medal for apples ex hibited at the Pan-Aruericnn exposi tion. Alfred Wood has 160 acres, 80 of which he recently bargained ro iell to William Kennedy. Mr. Wood has 25 acres cleared, a young orchard and 60 bearing trees. He grows one crop of clover without irrigation. On one-half acr ly; 'this year harvested, he thinks, about two tons of clover hay. Simpson Coppie, who baa farmed his place 14 years, "has 100 acres, 700 bearing apple trees, 1200 young apple trees, and good meadow and garden land. He has good improvements aod a good home. C. A. Wyman has a home-like place. He had 80 acres but has sold off and lo cated three families, until now his farm contains but 29 acres. He has a good orchard and good hay land. Mr. Wy man Is an elder lit the JSeventli Day Adventist 'church. He was Instru mental, as much as any man, In build ing the Union, church at Odell, In which ne delivers a sermon twice a mouth. Mr. Wyman is a well-in formed man; he Is an Inventor of no meau pretensions. ' When a young mail he started to learn the. printer's trade, and while engaged setting type, formulated in his mind the type-setting machine on nearly the same lines worked out by Merganthaler. At pres ent he is engaged in constructing brick- making machines of hisown invention. He recently set up a brick machine at Milwaukle, and another at Vancouver that makes 11,000 bricks In 8 hours with one horse power. He made the machine that L. D Boyed has used for the past two years. Daves Divers has 15 acres, with good improvements and a young .orchard. Mr. Divers was 77 years old February 9 last and ispne of the oldest settlers hi the valley. He was born in Virginia, where be married, and In 1843 moved to Missouri, and crowed the plaitis to Oregon in 1852. He came to Hood River from Clackamas county, arriving here August.!, 1SC2, and located on What has since been known as the Div era ranch, now owned by Judge George T. Prather. Upon his arrival In the valley he had a wife and four children, two yoke of cattle, two cows and $27.50 In cash. Potatoes .were $2 a bushel; other funu products were held at pro portionate prices. At that time the settlers here were Nathaniel Coe, Jen kins and Phelps on the West Side, and Benson, John Stanley, D. A. Turner. William Odell, Harrison and Hardin Corum on the East Side. Mr. Divers' wife died four years ago, his children bad grown nip and left the farm, and about two years ago he sold the farm to Judge Prather and bought the 15 acres on which he now makes his home and enjoys life In cultivating and Improving. The Increase Its the value of his land represented his savings of a lifetime, and when he sold U Judge Pratiier for $4,000, about two yearsago, bis work for 40 years amounted to $110 a year. Milton Odell, a soil of the late Will lam Odell, has 40' acres of good land, 15 acres cleared, with a small orchard. He will aet 5 acres to orchard this fall or next spring. He will also set two acres to strawberries. A fine spring on his place Hows 15 Inches of water. John Krceger has 150 acres, 30 in cul tivation. He has some good hay land and grows 6 acres of timothy. Clover does well for one cmp on his place. Ht has been growing wheat for hay but will hereafter grow clover. James English has 40 acres of good land but has do.ie very little clearing. He has a honiestoad of 160 acres on Hood river, on which he has done most of uls clear ing, but recently he moved to his 40 acres and will Improve it. The Dave Divers ranch, now owned by Judge Prather, was next visited. This place contains 240 acres, 75 In cul tivation. There are three big spring on the place, the land is good for bay, and there Is no better farm fir dairying in the country. W. A. Lockman, who ia managing the place, reside here with his fanrdly. Mr. -Lockraan Is a You will always find our prices right 'lower. than all otheis, and thef quality the highest. 'We guarantee every pair to be exactly as represented.!

He will set out quite an orchard on the hill adjoining Tangle wood farm. The fulls of Hood river are a favorite resort for campers. Professor F. G. Young, of the Uni versity of Oregon, has an able communi cation in Monday's Oregonian in which he points out that the principal fund of capital for the coming Lewis and Clark centennial must be the historical great ness of the occasion, The observance of the forthcoming centennial i a mat ter of national concern, and on this score congress could be appealed to for substantial aid in tho matW of erect ing a permanent memorial building, which cild later become a depository of the library ajid collections of the Oregon historical society. 'Speaking further Professor Young fays: "The exploitation of this capital of history is not merely an opportunity for the managers of the exposition ; it is their one sacred duty. It is that for which the exposition was organized and which is essential for the true celebration of the centennial anniversary. A failure to center the plans around the historical significance of the occasion in the ob servance of the centennial anniversary would be a desecration of the occasion and a virtual forfeiture of our priceless heritage". Governor T. T. Geer pursuant to an act of the Oregon legislature setting apart the first Monday in September of each year, a legal holiday to be known as labor day, has issued a proclamation making Monday, September I, a legal holiday, and recommending that all places of business of whatsoever kind, so far as possible, be closed on tiiat day. The Iowa republicans have come out strongly for tariff reform. Eighteen years ago GrOver Cleveland sent his famous tariff reform message to congress, and ever since the republican campaign speakers have howled long and loud against the threatening terrors of tariff reduction. Mr. Cleveland may yet see his theories the law of the land. The Portland chamber of commerce and board of trade will jointly issue 150,000 32-page copies of the Harriman booklet The Commercial club of Hood River will issue 75,000 10-page booklets for the same purpose. Portlands popu lation is 100,000; Hood River's, 1,000. Tbe Commercial . club of Eugene will ask the city council and the Lane county court to assist financially in publishing the Harriman immigration pamphlets.
