Reports pub lished ao far indicate a large crop throughout the United States. From New York, Dwight 8. Beckwith uaket the statement that that state's crop will be large and that prices will rule lower than last year. He intimates that the apple dealers lost money last year, and that they do not propose being caught that way again. In SanFrancisco apples are scarce and Gravensteint are selling (or $1.67. The Packer clips an item from the Orange Judd Farmer which goes on to say that these advance reports cannot always be relied upon. The earliest reports of the peach crop indicated a complete failure almost everywhere. It is now certain that a number of local ities have an abundant supply of peach es. On the other hand, the preliminary reports on apple prospects this year indicated an overwhelming yield in nearly tvery section of the country. It it now just as certain that In many sections, notably the Mississippi valley, parts of New England and New York, the yield will be much curtailed by imperfect fertilisation at blossoming time, and by other causes. It is wise, therefore, to take all preliminary esti mates under advisement. The Wheeler County News, published at Mitchell, the little town stricken last month by a cloudburst, says nothing in its last issue about an appeal of the citi- sens for outside aid. 8. Glen Andrus of the Chicago Record' Herald having seen Hood River thinks it Is as near paradise as any one could wish to get on earth. There are others of us, who since becoming of that opin ion, have determined to make our home here the rest of our mortal days. A California company bat presented proposal to the executive board of the city council of Portland to supply oil for the experimental sprinkling of half a mile of any street in the city. Wonder if the same company could be per suaded to make a like offor to Hood KiverT A neat little booklet containing the proceedings of the Oregon Press associa tion, which met last year at Salem, has reached fhe Glacier's editorial table. The report is the work of Secretary Al bert Tosler and Is a neat bit of work. This association of Oregon editors meets this fall in Hood River at the time of the fruit fair. From all over the big state of Oregon come lists of the leading business men and prominent citisens who are to at tend the meeting of the Oregon Devel opment league in Portland, August 2 and 8. Mayor Blowers has appointed his list of delegates, the names appear ing in another column of this week's Glacier. President Truman Butler of the Commercial club will make his ap pointments tomorrow night. At Mr. Butler It desirous of appointing at dele gates thoke who are willing to attend the conventlon.he desires all citizens in terested in the good movement to let him know by turning out to the meet' nig ne riai caned at the ciud rooms Friday night. Thit It a grand oppor tunity to make Hood River all the more known, and the town must not fail to send every man to the convention who can talk Hood River, and who can make people understand that this is the one ideal spot in the universe. Those of us who are here realise this already, and there are thousands of others anxious to to be told the tale of the famous Hood River valley. As requested iy the city council, Tru man Butler was about town Monday collecting the subscriptions made for the road to the boat landing. This list was passed about last November, when something over $500 were promised, and the city council Immediately appropri ated like amount toward the construc tion of the road. As is thown by the Glacier of November 5, the only condi ditions under which the subscriptions were set down were that the rights of way over which the road would pass should be granted the city free of cost and that the boat company would assure the building of a dock on the river front. Mr. Butler met with prompt response from a majority of the sub scribers of the road fund, but a few con sidered it a question whether they should pay or not, because the road had not been put through sooner. A mem ber of the council Informs the Glacier that it was Just the other day that the last free right of way was secured, and for thit reason the city has been delayed in the construction of the road. At the last meeting oi me city council, a con tract was let to W. R. Brown for con structing the grade aloag the bank of the river between the wagon and the railroad bridges. Mr. Campbell, man ager of the Regulator line, has notified Butler & Co. of hit e mpany't inten tion of putting in the wharf. Thus have the conditioni been fulfilled and the longviooked-for road to the boat laud' ng will soon be a reality, so lot us hope, Strawberries From Mount Hood. John Gruff of Mount Hood brought the Glacier office a box of fancy straw berries Wednesday morning. These berries were grown on Mr. G ruff's place wiinin eigm nines ox tne snow line, lie says he will have berries for the next month. Mr. Gruff has just harvested his first crop of clover, winch went 19 tons to eight acres. He believes the second cutting will be as heavy. He hat one of the fine places in the Mount Hood settlement, and he hasn't been there over two years, either. In that time be and las son have cleared 14 acres of ground and built a house, barn and other buildings. H' V', H'd !( have lime to dig his turnips before the big snow, and they lay in the groi'nd until spring, when he sold some of them for $! sack. Meeting of Delegates. All those who have been appointed delegates from Hood River to attend the Oregon Development JLengue are re quested to meet at the Hassalo Coin mercial Club rooms Friday evening at 8 o'clock to organize, get credentials, badges, etc. It is desired to have a large a delegation as possible, and all who can go to Portland next Tuesday if not already appointed, are requesleti to meet at the club rooms Friday eve ning and get credentials to go as a dele gate. The railroad has made a rate of one fare for the round trip. APPLE CROP OF FINE QUALITY I). II. Sears stepped into the Glacier office last Saturday to have his suhscrip tion shoved up another year and re mained long enough for the leporter to get tome apple crop information from him. Mr. Sean believes the apple crop this vear will be of verv fine Quality. The farmers have sprayed thoroughly ; mot ot them have thinned the fruit from the overloaded trees and with everything else weather conditions have mien invor able for a splendid crop this full. While popsibly some ot the orchards which bore heavily last year will not be so heavily loaded this year, Mr. Sears be lieves these orchards will more than make up the difference in the size anil quality of the fruit. ilie estimate or this mil's apple crop crop placing it at 75,000 boxes, Mr. Sears thinks a rule small, hears & t'orter themselves have over 20,000 lioxes. The crop this year is reported to be a large one throughout the United States, but Mr Bears thinks that the Hood Kiver ? rowers should receive good price, 'ricet will possibly not be so high s last year, yet the mncy iruil should bring fancy prices. There are few sec tions of the country which produce the Spitzenhergs and Yellow Newtown with the perfection reached in Hood River, and for this reason the Hood River apple should bring good prices. Mr. Sears thinks there will be some lively bidding for the crops when they are offered for sale this fall. Sears At Porter ore not meniliers of the A mile Growers' union, preferring to ship their fruit independently. They are not only growers oi apples, but are also success ful shippers. This firm bought and and shipped considerable apples last fall. For his Yellow Newtowns Mr. Sears says he received 2.10 a box on on the cars at the depot. His Hpitzen bergs brought even more. Bears A Porter have alvut 35 acres of bearing orchard under their supervision. Many people have heard of Hood River orchards turning off $500 worth of ap ples to the acre in a single season, but it remains for Mr. Sears to produce a re cord thatmore than equals this. The Ksst Side apple king told the story to the newspaper man, but he made him promise not to print it lest the Hood River people should regard him as too great a romancer. The story was something about getting $1,000 an acre from Yellow Newtowns, but as the newsgatherer promised not to say any thing about it ask Mr. Hears to tell it himself. Mr. Sears is a firm believer that the 4-tier and 8f-tier will bring letter prices than the 5-tier fruit. He think; the time will come when Hood River will cease to market any apples less than 4-tiers. Last fall he shipped a car of 3-tier that sold in Liverpool for $.1.50 to $:i.75 a box. This was from 50 to 75c more than the smaller apples brought. Pleased With Ills Mountain Farm. George I). Culbortson was brushing up his rille Tuesday morning, before leaving for his homestead on the mouii tains to the east of the Mount Hood settlement. There are occasional bears to be seen in that neighborhood, and as the berries are plentiful about his place ami bears like fruit, you know, the edi tor will keep on the watch for the next few days for a mess of juicy bear meat. Mr. Culbertson moved out to his ranch about three weeks ago. Since then he has been spending his time between his olHce In the city and the ranch, ' His homestead is situated 14 miles up the valley, on Indian crock the western branch of Mosier creek. His brother-in-law, Major tfootli, owns an adjoining claim situated on Cougar crock. Both streams have very signifi cant names, but Mrs. Itooth, with Miss May Perry for a companion, does not mind staying alone in their mountain home with the nearest neighbor three miles or more distant. "Kdgwood" is the name Mrs. Cul bertson lias given the farm. Their cabin stands at the edge of a fir wood and a large patch of mountain maple hence the name. Forest tiros of 50 or 100 years airo destroyed the underbrush on the mountainside, savs Mr. Culbert son, and the country thereabouts pre sents now the appearance ot a park. The air there is cool and pleasant on the warmest days. Mr. Culbortson says he has spent ma n v weeks at the coast but never found anything there to compare wuu tne attractiveness oi me mountains for an ideal summer home. The only thing to bother Mr. Ctilbori- son are the sheep and cattle men wle persist in driving their herds over his lands and camping on the streams thu' supply his house with water. This sec tion of the country has been used by the herders for years and they have come to regard thu lands as their own. The cuttle and sheep come from farms south oi t he Dalles. Air. uulituM-on says he has posted trespass notices, and with his neighbors, lie proposes to resort to legal steps if necessary, to abate the nuisance. Mr. Culbertson believes he can raie apples on his place. The altitude, about 2,800 feet, he thinks is too high for 'lie late varieties of apples to mature, bin as George Irelund, who has an orti.uni nearby, finds that varieties like the Gravenstein. King of Tompkins count v and the Famous grow nicely, he think'. of setting out a small orchard himself Mrs. Mary Itooth, Philip Sharpol The Dalles and C. K. lav went out with Mr. Culbertson Tuesday. Next week lie expects a brother from Texas, John M. Culbertson, who is now superinten dent for the Santa re railway at lort north, and win intends coming to Oregon to rusticete for bis health. A picture was framed at Bart mesa' store this week for Miss Carrie Ityerlee, the picture being a group of individual photographs of the June graduating class of the Ureiron Agricultural college at Corvallis, of which Miss Uyerlce is a member.

The fruit was for shipment to Southern California, where summer ap ples are reported very scarce. r. Hendricht says he has received no word from Page A Sons since ship ping the apples last Thursday. Oregon Crop Corn! II Ions. The Weather Bureau Crop Bulletin for this week reports as follows: lie weather during the week has been unusually warm and dry, which was favorable for harvest work, but it caused the grain to fill and ripen a little too fttfct. F'all wheat west o.' the Cas cades has mostly been cut and shocked, and east of the Cascades its harvest is progressing rapidly. But little thresh ing huh yi ueen none in uie n uiamc lie valley. In the Columbia River valley and in Southern Oregon the yields are generally reported to be better than ex pected. Early sown spring wheat and oats were greatly improved by the rains of last week and they promise from fair to good returns. Late town spring wheat and oatt are thin, heading short, and generally e poor that they are be ing cut for hay. Feed on the ranges continues better than usual, but in the Willamette valley pasturage is getting snort ana stock is beginning to lose tiesh. here vronerlv cultivated hops, gardens, corn, potatoes and field onions are doing well, but they all, as well as pasturage, would be greatly benefitted by more rain. Some spraying has been done in the hop yards, but the hot weather killed most of the lice, and, as a ruin, the yards are remarkably free from vermin. Apples continue to drop, but not to an alarming extent, ana an average or better than an average crop of apples is expected. Peaches and blackberries are plentiful. and early apples and early peart are ripe. Poor Applet on the Market. The citizen who recently complained of being swindled by being sold a box of worthless green apples, which were not fit to make sauce for either the goose or the gander, took some pains to investigate the matter. He reports that ho found the applet were infected with "dry rot." He was told that ol late several varieties of applet had been rendered practically worthless by this disease. Among them the old favorite Baldwin is pushing through. No cause' nor any cure for the trouble hat beeoj Never Undersold. can buy them elsewhere. discovered. Pruning, spraying, wash ing or treatment of any kind hat proved futile. The trouble is supposed to come from something wrong in the trees or the roots thereof, and even cultivation and fertilization has been tried without any benefits accruing, and it will probably be necessary to totally destroy the trees of the varitier affected. Mother Seeks Missing Boy. Mrs. C. W. Emrick of Hillsboro, Or., writes to the Davidson Fruit Co. inquir ing for her son Eddie, who left home about two montliB ago and has not been heard of since. Neighbors said he was seen in Hood River during the berry season, but Mr. Davidson hat no record of the lad having worked for him. The mother describes her ton at being 15 years old and large for hit age ; black hair, brown eyes: scar on nose and chin ; speaks good English and German ; can converse in the sign lang uage of the deaf and dumb, his parents being thus afflicted. If anyone knows his whereabouts, his mother would be thankful for the infor mation. Deserts Wire and Children. The family of the Frenchman named Basso, the sign painter who recently purchased a lot on West River street, in Idlewilde addition, and built a small house on the property, were found des erted and destitute, Monday afternoon.
