A word to the newcomer to this laud
if promise aboutour valley of sunshine,
fruit and flowers I hope will be admis
sible in your and our home paper.
Now, friend and stranger, when you
have been wined and dined and whirled
through the lower and upper valleys of
Hood River and shown orchards and
apples and berry patches and clover
fields, and last but not least4he irriga
tion ditch, and yet long .for something
you hardly know what, but yet you
want to see something more, just in
quire of the editor of the Glacier how
to get over the river to that place with
Hie fishy name, where the sun seems
to shine all the time on that rock yon
der. When you land on the beach,
just ask the ferryman where 8. C.
Zeigler, M. D. McClure, J. P. Egan,
C. D. Moore or Judge liyr
kett live, and before climbing the
bluff, just call upon these gentlemen
and see where the b and $tt a crate
strawberries are grown. Just gel any
of these gentlemen in the confidential
mood by telling him you are from Mis
souri, Ohio, New York or most auy
place back East, and if It is anywhere
near meal time, he will fill you up on
canned goods, good cream and straw
berry, tomnto and Jersey dairy ranches.
You will no doubt consider from his
fluency and carelessness in handling
returns per nan acres net, with no
work attached, that his equal in pre
varicating the truth is bard to find
To test him, iust make a bluff at him
by offering him $t00 to $1,000 an acre
lr tils 6 or 10 acres, and then beoulck
lo catch the look of contempt and the
retcn or necK as ne sizes you up from
loe to Derby.
Puss along the line and see them all,
atubas yon leave the judge to wend
your way noni liingen to White Su
mini on the hill, you will probably be
w deep in uie mesnes ot ngures "per
ix, per crate, per acre," ttiat you
won't notice the beautiful drive you
me ascending until you confront, all at
i iicewhat you mistake in your first
lusty inspection as Rockefellow'shorue
iii the Hudson. No; it is the home of
one of our oldest settlers, that of A. H.
Jewett. Don't pass tt by. (to in. Just
ask tliem tor anything they have, and
it is yours. Roam over the lawns and
'.'iiinpas. See all the beautiful shrubs
and trees, and for the first time see
berries that are grown without irriga
tion. Ask him all about White Salmoti
and the country about us away back to
Trout Lake and Camas Prairie. . He
will give you lots of information. If
lie doesn't, his good wife, Mrs. Jennie
Jewett, will. Never fear but what you
will be entertained.
As you pass up Jewett avenue, note
the hue vineyard on your left. See our
little church and parsonage. And in
this little church, if you will come over
on Sundays you can hear somcthlug
d;op. It will sink into you so deep it
will ring in your ears so loudly for
d.iys that you will wonder where so
small a town with so small a church
got so much man. No, he did not
come from the East just now; he is one
nf the Pa cine coast make, which the
miiis and dews have kept clean. .
Next comes C. F. Waldo's place." He
Is setting it out to cherries. He is a
newcomer among us, but get him
wound up on cherries, and if you de
sire to return to Hood River or your
old home again, you had belter make
some excuse to pass by, fur he knows
wnat ne is talking about in the cherry
Hue from experience in California, and
in comparison a strawberry ranch will
seem to .,U a poor investment.
Now you are in our business section.
Look It over. Talk with the gentle
men. f-.ee Mr. Woifard. Get his ton-
nage and wonder again. Pass up the
avenue. Call upon the Mains, the
momases. uall upon S. W. Condon
and see his 8 acres of 2-year-old vines.
He is a lawyer by profession, but don't
think anything of thai; he won't work
you for a tee at the moment''. He will
just tell you what he has done since he
came here and how the law business
ihii t in it fn comparison to his berrv
patch. He w ill show you a couple of
regisiereu jerseys, mother and daugh
ter, and if he has time to lay out the
cream and berry vision Irs which he
lives in season, you will feel like srjend
Ing your last dollar there and then for
a 10-acre patch near by.
And now, my friend, take a trip to
inn timuer, 10 uie mini or stock and
clover, (jo up to Mr. Woods. Go any
where around among us. See our ap'
pies, our trees, our vegetables, our pos-
sibilities, our capabilities; with your
neip, compare tnem with everywhere,
anywhere. And don't forget to get
.... ,i, ling nn iiqiii uu ttr
ey. Why, just assure as vou do this
you will at once see there are olaces in
Oregon where they charge you more
for climate alone. Come and see us
before you go home; we know if you do
you will come buck to stay, sure.

Dukes Valley Items.
Dukes valley has not appeared in the
Glacier forborne weeks. This ia proba
bly due to bad weather, as the It. F. I),
carrier cut us off since the' tmow until
last week, and we appreciate our mail
now. We did not know how nice it was
to have the mail come to our door until
we were cut out of the line.
The snow has not entirely gone, but
if the warm weather cotinuus it will not
last long.
There is talk once more of a saw mill
in our valley to be located on W. G.
Dodson's place. This would be a (food
thing for our valley.
J. F. Dodson anil Milton Hingernian
have gone to the lodging i-amp.
Ruby Chandler was in our valley dur
ing the week visiting friends.
Last Sunday was the regular appoint
ment for David Morrif to speak to us
at our school lioue, but from somo un
known cause he did not show up. Tiiore
is a certain class of Christians who are
afraid of water, but we hope Mr.
Morris is not one of them.
Last Sundav at our Snndav school we
had Mr. Sanders of Udell with iik, ani
after Sunday school he organized a
Christian Endeavor, which is to meet at
the school house at 7 o'clock each Sun
day with Mr. Sanders a9 president.
We understand that the young people
of J. F. Dodson have purchased an or
gan. This is the juurtli organ to be hauled
into our valley this winter. Who said
Duke's valley was not coining to the
front?
Odell Notes.
Dr. M. A. lones and family spent
Tuesday at the Little White Store, vis
iting Mr. and Mrs. Roswell (Shelley.
They will probably spend the summer
at Hood Kiver.
The roads Will be worked today by
the crowds going to, and from t lie pri
maries. .The politicians will probably
work their friends. This will prove an
active day in Portland, the result of
the factional fight there. The repub
licans outside of Multnomah county
should administer a severe rebuke as
well as some sort of punishment for
this senseless fight which means sim
ply the crowing- of personal ambition
and furnishes occupation for t lie polit
ical grafter. Such selfish work in the
republican party is proving a serious
detriment to the party. .
, Apple hauling is now on again, and
the apples are bringing a good price.
"The way back literature of Fast
Hood Kiver," spoken of by tbe liairett
correspondent, seems to have borne no
fruit in the way of road work. But the
fact remains that the road queslion is
proving a scriou problem and one that
must; be considered .if laud owners ex
pect to sell; Recently quite u party
were driven over the roads in dintrirt 7,
all newcomers, and they were loud in
.condemnation of our almost Impassable
roads. Investors reserve the right to
ehooxe their own locations, and good
roarts will go a long way toward sofv
ing this problem. The writer' also
