HOOD RIVER GLACIER, THURSDAY, JULY 14, 1904. Hood Rlver'tUJInrk's'Seedlliigs. Hon. C. L. Smith, the w:ll-known institute worker and editor of the In land Farmer, recently visited Hood River end investigated the strawberry business. As he. tells us, one of the thiiiKS he was looking for was "the why of the wide fame of a medium-sized, . rather sour, hard strawberry that was certainly inferior in size, prodiictiveneHs and Ilavor to many ol the poiiiilur van ties. While the investigation was dili gently prosecuted along different lines, we found the sitiiution so complex and the evidence so contradictory that the problem was not solved to our satisfac tion. "Iid the strnwberrv make Hood Eiver famous? Or did Hood liiver make the strawberry famous? Is the high repu tation of flood Kiver berries due to the berry, the soil, the climate, tho method of growing and marketing them? After a careful review of the entire Held the writer inclines to the thought that a few men in Hood River have been able to intelligently combine a few ordinary , factors, take advantage of certain oppor tflnities no way exceptional in charac ter and by a happy combination of these, with brains, energy and persever ance, have made Hood Hiver and Hood Kiver berries famous. Therefore that it ii not t he beny nor the place, hut the men and the methods that have been the governing force." There is no doubt that much of the fame of the Hood Kiver strawberries is due to the people of that place. There is no other fruit-growing district in the 1'acillc Northwest which has shown so keen an appreciation of the value of advertising or so much enterprise and public spirit in securing advertising. lint, with this admitted, we believe there is something to be credited to the climate and soil conditions of the Hood Kiver section, and a great deal to the characteristics of the Clark Seedling strawberry itself. The climate of the Hood Kiver valley is ahout'hulf way between those of the , small-fruit districts west of the Cascade iMouutains and those found in the valleys of the Columbia, Kinike and Yakima Rivers (east of the Cascades). There is all the heat and sun in Hood Kiver vslley consistent with the produc tion of the best shipping qualities in strawlmrries, and yet rarely the extreme heat in strawberry time which often softens the berries in the warmer valleys named. While temperaturo conditions west of the Cascades are usually ideal for the production of shipping berries, the varieties best adapted to long-dist-unco shipments as a rule are varities which require a nandy soil and the main tenance of a large supply of water in the soil. This is a combination of conditions which is rather raro west of the Cascade Mountains, ami the west side berries which are most profitable to growers are the larger kinds which llourish in clayey soils and yield immense crops of berries suitable to home markets. At Hood Kiver the sandy soils and Irrigation ditches enable growers to se cure crops of payiikg volume from the Clark's seedling, which In the vicinity of its place of origin near Portland yields less than one-fourth as much per cre as such varieties as the Magonn. As to the merits of the Clark's Heed ling strawberry Itself we believe it may be Justly claimed for it that, as grown and handled at Hood River at least, it is the best long-distance shipping straw berry known. This is a matter which has been demonstrated by the continu ous success of Hood Kiver in shipping strawberries to twice tho distance straw berries are sucessfully shipped from other growing points and yet having them arrive tit destination In such flue condition that they outsell In price the best berries grown close to such dustina tion. Tho Clark's Needling berry is not only firm but rich. W hile it is a sour berry oven when ripe, wo are of the opinion that chemical analysis would show that a ripe (Mark's seedling straw berry contains as much sugar as tho sweetest st rawberries grown and that its sourness Is due to the largo percentage of acid it contains. This combination of sugar and acid makes rich, heavy fruit and the (Mink's teedliug is one of the heaviest strawberries known, at least that is the impression of those who have handled it. '1 he liberal supply of acid acts as a natural preservative of the fruit. A feature which makes the variety valu able for shipping is that it can be when iust beginning to turn and will color up beautifully in the boxes on its journey east. Intro are other varities which share this quality with it, but eomparu tively few which develop so attractive a color and have a rich red llesh all through. - An Incidental value of the Clark's Needling Is that it is one of the best varieties for canning. It retains its form in canning as well as the Wilson, and holds its lino color remarkably well tho can. Ha richness also adds to Its quality when canned. It is not probable nun u wilt pay anywhere to raise tl v laiK neuuiing lor canning purposes only, but it is probable that in time the Hood Kiver canned strawberry will enjoy as uigu reiauve siauiiing as (lie lloixl Kiver fresh strawberries hold today, 1 ne uici linn the (. lark's tseei inr a an early berry is also a point In its favor. Kural Northwest. Spencer to Make Daily Hound Trips, lieginning Friday, the steamer Siien cer propose to make round trips daily between I'ortlaud and The Pallea. l!y the new schedule, the sleBiner will leave J'orlland at 7 o clock in the morn ing and make her return landing about 10 o clock at night. Itefore entering tins service, me strainer is undergoing an overuauiing, It Is feared by many that the Spencer cannot mako this daily round trip. The round trip to The Dalles lias only been made regularly by one steamer, and then for only a brief period. Two years ago tbu Ualley Gatxert covered the dis tance both ways, but she carried jiotli ing but passengers, and was enabled to keep up a fairly tjood schedule. Had she handled freight, however, as it is proceed to do on the Spencer, Dior who were in touch with the Bituatiou at that time, say that she would have been taxed to the utmost, l or this reason they declare that the Spencer is going to have all, if not more, than she can attend to properly. Apple Outlook Is Good. James Haeley, secretary of the Miss issippi Valley (i rowers' association, writ ing in the Chicago Packer says: At the earliest stages of the apple crop at the present season the outlook for an extraordinary harvest in the Middle West was very Mattering. There was a great unanimity of expression from ap ple growers that tho prospect for a great yield had never been lietter. The months, however, have caused a great modification of opinions. It has Ik-cii observed that there was a great lack of vitality in the bloom and also that the several consecutive days of cold rainy Weather at the time the bloom set, pre vented a proper pollination. It is not the desine to make a report that would be at all discouraging to either the grower or the buyer. It has been wisely said that the pessimist looks a the bloom that has fallen to the ground while the optimist looks at the setting of fruit remaining on the tree. If tho apple yield all over the I'nited State would average anywhere near a ' (lf " "'" ' ;'' e-- a"' n'"'' ! of aonles nrobiib'v enoueh for all tmr- poses, hence the grower should not hold his crop at too high a price, neither should the buyer bankrupt himself in his eagerness to corner the market From The Rural Northwest. A car of cherries from San Jose,' Cal., was sold at Chicago, Jane 20, which contained some Rings. Thev went at 12.75 per box, while the highest- prices paid lor any other cherries in the car was $l.:tO. i . We notice a growing tendency even at Hood Kiver to call the Clark's Seeding strawberry the ' lloou Kiver ' straw berry. To do this is playing into the hands of growers of Clark's Seedling strawberries elsewhere, who are only too well pleased to have a good excuse for labelling their strawberry crates 'Hood Kiver Strawberries, In California packers are offring $30 por ton lor Jtartlctt pears, but are secur ing no contracts. A provision as to size probably has tomething to do with the failure to obtain contracts. Some Ore gon and Washington growers who sign ed contracts without reading them found that the contract covered only a small Hirtion of their fruit when deliver ing time came. - -i A Trip Through Yellowstone Park f what every one hopes to have some day,, It is the most wonderful trip In the world. There are more than 3000 square miles of weird, marvelous, un imaginable tilings mat can be wen no where else, therefore If one ever sees them one must go to the Park, in the heart of the magnificent Rockies, with snow tipped peak all around.- If Old Faithful geyser, a Paint Pot. Mud Vol cano or Kmerald Poof were to bo found in Lincoln Park, ( hicago Central nark, New York; or Fairmouut park, Phil adelphia, the people would flock In see It or them ly tens of thousands, tor a very small sum, comparatively, all these and hundreds more of 'Nature' unduplicated marvels can I seen be tween June 1 and September 80 of each year, and one will enjoy, to boot, the best coaching trip in the country. The Northern Pacific folder on Yel lowstone Park, Just issued, Is a new, right up to date, finely Illustrated de serUitlou on this Yellowstone Park trip. It Is not descriptive, but deal with the detailed, technical matter every one needs to know about such a trip. It tells all about the hotel, the singe coaches, the loads, the post of the tour; where the geysers, the waterfall, the bears, the canyons are, and where the trout fishing Is found.

Although the next federal census will not be taken until 1010, the state law of Oregon provide for a decennial census, to he taken midway hetween the govern ment's enumerations. Tho next state cciihuh, therefore, will be compiled in 1005. It is made the duty of the county as- ses.ors throughout the state to take the census in their respective counties, the work commencing May 10. r.ac h asses sor to ascertain the number of legal vot ers in hi county, the number ot males who are ol sire, the number under 10 years of age and the numlicr between 10 and 21. He must also ascertain the number of female who are of age, the the number under 10 and the number bet ween 10 and 18. . It is also the assessor' duty to gather lull information a to the agricultural product of the county, the number of acres under cultivation, tlie (inanity of salmon taken during the preceding year ami other statistics ot commercial ami industrial value. When the census ha been completed, It must be copied bv tho county clerk and then transmitted to the secretary of state. Raise Clover and Apples. li, n. tucker, one ol Mood Kiver successful apple growers, says he finds the growing of strawberries and apple not a successful combination. He pre fers to raise Annies and clover. Not that the strawlierries are not profitable on hi farm, but because he say he cannot give the attention the two crop demand. Just when the lierrie are demanding hi attention at harvest tune, he finds he is too apt to neglect the spraying of hi apple trees, and this is the season of the year when apple need the most attention trow the spray pump, when the fruit i beginning to form. (Mover hay he say can be counted upon to not the farmer between $30 and (III an aero. He counts on four ton of hay to the acre. One man can look after five times the acreage of clover that he can of strawberries for the same cost. . Mr. Tucker has raised some of the finest Yellow Newtown in Oregon. Hi fruit ha taken a number of gold medal at the world fairs. Ho irrigates hi orchard only in the latter part ol the season as the trees require the water, Anyone familiar with trees, he says, can readily ten when the orchards re quire water. , He then runs a small stream of water through Ida orchard, about six feet from the trees until the leaves are noticeably freshened up. An irrigated apple is liiicier he savs. and he believes keeps as well a the unirri- gated apple. Ho give hi orchard water according to the rouuiromcuta of the land, Home of it taking more than other. . . Hold Cougar at White Salmon. Dr. M. A. Jones, who was over from White Salmon, Saturday, tells a thrill ing cougar story. Karly iu the week, Air. Joint i'urser. hcarimr'a disturb ance among her chickens, went out to see what was the matter, A few feet from her was a monster mountain lion. Tho chickens were too lively for the cougar, and he was unable to get hold ot any of them. Failing in this he leaped upon a log near bv and coolly purveyed the situation. Switching hi tail aliout, it win several minutes More he trotted oft to the woods. mi. . j no next uay ine cougar was aeen again in the canyon behind the Jewett lintel. At another time some of the farmers cattle were chased bv the hungry brute. No one lost anything. finally, a hunters laisse was made up, and headed by Mordeeai Jones a cliase was htvuii ud tho eauvon. A nack of hounds aoon found the trail, but the cougar had a couple davs' start and the cluise proved futile. The trail of the cougar followed up tho canyon anii men over ine Mils toward I.yle. Last year it is said that a farmer' Ikij- at White Salmon came near lieing cnpiurcu uy a cougar. The child was playing In the yard near the house, when his dog aroused him to the im pending danger, and he had time to run lor homo More the animal caught him. 'ew It F. It. Regulations.
