Indication of Large Apple Crop.
The Chicago Packer ii endeavoring to
publwh all the information it can
ecore on the apple crop. 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

ground and built a house, barn and other
buildings.

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'.

Mrs. Mary Itooth, Philip Sharpol The

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

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

cades has mostly been cut and shocked,
and east of the Cascades its harvest is
progressing rapidly. But little thresh

and in Southern Oregon the yields are
generally reported to be better than ex

to good returns. Late town spring

Poor Applet on the Market.
The citizen who recently complained
of being swindled by being sold a box

that ho found the applet were infected
with "dry rot." He was told that ol

The trouble is supposed to come from
something wrong in the trees or the

benefits accruing, and it will probably
be necessary to totally destroy the trees
