3(ood Iiver Glacier THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1904. Rotwell Shelley, in hia (Well notes, cat la attention to the great number of clover patches on the hut Side and the lack of cattle to make use of the pastur ge the fields will afford between now and next spring. He tuggests that such condition! would warrant the establish ment of a dairy here. With the abun dance of clover hay thii valley will of hay mutt come down, and the dairy bmineH should then become profitable. i nere money in me uairy uusiness properly handled, and Hood River offers n opening to aome one. If a dairy could not be made to pay just yet, ar rangement might be made, ai hai be fore been aiiggeited, for establishing a cream route, which is being done in parti of the Willamette valley. A housewife of Hood River bought two doien "fresh" ranch eggs at a store in town. Six. of the 24 were rotten. They were eggs just brought in, the merchant said Some "honest" farm ers havo a habit of gathering the eggs once a week the day they go to town. It matters not to these people if setting hens bavs been industriously at work on nests of these eggs during the week. They are intended for store eggs, any how, anl all go at the same price. Ferment who gather eggs every day, and can guarantee them fresh and sound, should receive at least 5 cents a down more than the careless ones who dump their rotten eggs with the goo 1 on the market. ' Complaints are frequent by fanners of sneak thieves entering their orchards and gardens by night and stealing (mil and vegetables. There is not a farmer or fruit grower in the valley but would give his neighbor melons or fruit if he came in daylight to make a friendly call. When the dishonest neighbor comes at night to. steal peaches or plug watermelons he deserves to be plugged with buckshot. No mercy should be shown any one caught stealing in Hood River valley. The Hood River public schools opened Monday with Professor L, A. Wiley in charge. Professor C rouse is his assist ant. Both are gentlemen with records of success. They have been supplied with an able corps of assistants, and the schools of the city have started with every prospect that this will be a most profitable year for the young people of Hood River. The Glacier la confident those in charge will give Hood River a g.-od school. The rural mail carriers of Whatcom county, Wash., have formed an associa tion and will meet next Monday to see what steps may be taken to devise some means of obtaining au increased appro priation or bettertoutstde support, i ' Hood River was too busy to obsorve Labor day as a general holiday. The banks and public offices were closed, but the general public went on with their business at usual. IXJL Jl At this enlightened age, the man who prints an eight-page paper with the home side turned in, and the quarto un cut, should b suppressed. A Belllnghain grocer advertisea that he has choice (Irsvenstelu applet at 50 cents a box and fresh eggs at 30 cents a doxen. 0oo4 Meeting at Daker City. E. L. Smith returned, Sunday, from the meeting of the Oregon Development league at Baker City. Mr. Smith says there was a lot of wholesome enthusiasm manifest at this meeting, and the whole of Eastern Oregon seems determined to reap every benefit it can from the gen eral movement for new life in the state. A large party of Portlandera were there. On his return trip, Mr. Smith had the . i IE .!, . .!! .1 t . l pleasure oi a lo-iiuic unve uirougn me orchards of the timid Honde valley. The next meeting of the Development league will be held at Grant's Pats, Fri day, September 23. The Portland Kvening Telegram says: "E. L. Smith, president of the state league, will be at urant s rats to pro- aide over the session and lend hia able assistance to enlist the enthusiastic sup port of Southern Oregon in the enter prise." Gives Hint Uond Opinion of Hood River. United States Deputy Marshal I.. N. Blowers was visiting relatives in Hood River over Sunday. Mr. Blowers is a lowed 25 days' vacation, and he aaya he la spending the time m installments, preferring to leave some of it for the Christmas holidays. During the course of hia travela over the state, Mr. Blowers saya he has had an opportunity to see pretty much of the whole of Oregon. And after seeing the state he has a better opinion than ever of Hood River. There are other towns the peer of this one, saya Mr. Blowers, but taken all in all, but few places are ahead of Hood River. Deputy United States Marshal Blow era made a trip to Coos Bay recently. This country he taya has a great future before it. Marsh Held has the making ot a city oi tti.uuu population II a trans continental railroad ever secures ter minal facilitiea at this point. There are vast fields of coal in the neighborhood of Marshfleld, aaya Mr. Blowers, and as manufat turers always seek cheap fuel and easy means of transportation, this part of Oregon is looking forward to great things lor the luture. Hottest August for Tears. Old timers have all said the month of Auguat just passed was the hottest known in this country for years, but those who are newer to the country were tempted to doubt the memory of those who have had the good fortune to live nere longer. Hut figures must be taken at their lace value. D. N. Byerlee, the local weatlfer ob server fur Hood River, finds on com paring hia monthly report for August with the reports of the corresponding tuootht for previous years, that this last month was the hottest by many de grees. The average mean temperature for the month Just, closed was 117. while for August, 1903, it was 50.0; 1902, 49 7: 1001.52.2. The mean maximum for August, ac cording to Mr. Byerlee s report, was 78.91, and the highest temperature re corded wat w, on Auguat 3. ineave age minimum temperature was 68 93, and the lowest temperature for any one day was 45, on the last day of the month. This fame tempi-rut lire was reached once or twice during the month. The prevailing wind was from the test for the first 23 days (if the month. Then it came from the east for two days and returned to the went, continuing thus until the last day of the month, when it switched to the east. There was no precipitation until the 27th, when the rain gauge showed a trace. The following day .38 inches of rain fell. The greatest dally range of temperature occurred on the 24th, when the difference between the maximum and the minimum was 43 degrees. PEOPLfToiT 1ILL WANT JJO SEWER The residents on the lull don't pro pose to have any sewers built for them ; not if they can help it. At Tuesday night's council meeting long petitions were presented from property ownerson the heights protesting against the ex tension of the proposed sewer system to the upper part of the city. It is understood that a similar petition wm n lmva luin troiunij,l (mm ttlf I west end of the city, hut the council met too soon for this petition to lie pre sented. The council listened to the reading of the petitions, and on motion of McDon aid, an amended ordinance governing proceedings hi he matter of laying sewers was taken from the table and passed. This gives the special sewer committee authority to proceed along the original lines lor the sewers. The finance committee audited the following claims ajminst the city and on motion the bills were ordered paid : M. A.

Engineer Newell of the O.K. & N. has promised the city the right t build the road under the railroad bridge. Sewers Will Cost About $35,000. 1). McDonald, member of the sewer 'committee of the city council, saya the cost for the proposed .ewer syBlem has been estimated to cost about $:)f or $10 per 60-foot front. This will make the cost for the main part tf the cily about SJ,000. The committee is at work now figur ing out the assessments and expect to liavo the list ready for publication by next week. It was originally Intended to extend the system west on River street to the cross street forming the east, line of Paradise farm, but the Hood River De velopment Co. Is understood to he strongly opposed to such a move. Mr. McDonald states that the company's representative stated to him that they wanted the sewer constructed after the original plans, with everything in shape to they could connect when they want ed to, but they don't want to Btand the expense now. Hood River Pears In Seattle. Special to the Ulacier. Seattle, Sept. 0 A. D. Blowers A Co., wholesale commission merchants, report at follows: "Market the past week has been fair ly satisfactory, with the exception of to matoes, of which, the shipments being to large, the market became glutted to the extent that freight charges hardly were realized. Some very tine Graven stein apples and Hurtled pears have made their appearance in this market from Hood River, but the pears have reached here a little over ripe. Shippers should be careful that, no wormy ones are sent to this market, for they will he condemned by the fruit commissioner if so. Prices at present rule as follows: Bartlett pears, 75c to $1, as to size and condition; Uravenstein apples, ftvo tier, OOo tofl, four tier, $1 to $1.25; other good apples range from 90c to $1 for good stock to $1.25 for strictly fancy four-tier red apples. There is a little demand for the fancy four-tier King wrapped for Nome trade. This trade will close about the 20th of this mouth, when the shippers will have to depend on the local market. Fancy four-tier peaches are selling at 00 to 75c. Medium and small peaches are selling from 40 to 55c. Crab apples 00 to tlfio for peach box sixes. Shipping Prunes From Muster. Special to the Glacier. Jl osier, riept. . A numlieroi cars or prunes has been shipped East during the pat-t week and still more ae in pro cess of preparation, for ear shipment, while tromaou to oou crates go out uaiiy by express To Improve Telephone Service, foreman Gilbert anil a party of line men arrived during the week mid are stringing wires and putting in extra poles to meet the demand for increased service in the telephone system of Hood River. Miss Cramer, mauuger of the Pacific States Te.ephone Co. for Hood River, states that the improvements which have patiently licen awaited will lx made as soon as workmen can string the wires and put in the instruments. Some 50 contracts have recently been secured for suburban phones, ami when these are placed in position it w ill make about 100 farmer phones for the Hood Kiver circuit. In the city there are about 250 more instruments, making the total for the valley a little over 400. Many of the lines leading into the country are very much over-crowded. and complaints at the poor service have hecn moment , and many, foreman Gilbert saya that on seven of the lines coming into town there are now 108 wires. With the new one being put in, this will reduce the number to only ten on a wire. Harry Bailey is assisting Foreman Gilbert to string the wires.

Vorse, manager for the Hood River Electric Light, Power and Water t.tlla tin. ilm ii.i that. Ins cotnimnv is prepared to give the city of Hood Kiver water for fire protection, and that his company means business when he makes the statement. "We are here lor business, wo have the watir to supply, and mean to offer tlie people a just and equitable proposi tion," remarked Mr. Vorse. "Insurance today on stocks and busi ncss blocks is costing Hood River mer chants and owners $12,300 per annum," continued Mr. Vorse. "Much of this is at 10 per cent, the maximum rate. Any additional lisk means cancellation of policy, but underwriters will allow a 20 to 25 per cent discount on this annual premium ui.der their prescribed system of tire protection. "The Hood River Electric Light, Power and Water Co. stands ready to supply the required service, and allow such reasonable me us the city can make of hydrant water, at an annual rental less than one-third the amount saved from insurance premiums. "It would be possible, if work Is be gun immediately, to construct the sys tem and have it in a condition to give Bervice January 1, 1005. We would tup ply water for audi service from the to-be-completed reservoir at June street and county road, under pressure of 103 pounds per square inch at tire present post office location, and the source of supply will be first the spring! now owned by the company, which are de livering more than 570,010 gallons of water r day. Assuming a consump tion of 40 gallons per capita per day, which includes fire service, this quan tity would meet the needs of a city of over 14,000 iuhubitants. "But this company will agree to main tain a given number of cubic feet of water in said reservoir at all times even fliould it mean pumping from Hood river. We have under way the laying of lli.OOO feet of 8, 0 and 4-inch pipe on the hill. "Immediately following this will be an improvement in the domestic service below the hill, calculated to give all con sumers an ample supply of water. Should this company enter into contract with the city to supply a water service for fire protection it will ask a reason able time only in which to install the system, and will give substantial bond guaranteeing faithlul performance of contract on its part. "Improvements in our lighting plant are under way. New light circuits will be placed ou the hill and ourjighting capacity increased to meet every de mand. "From this time, let it be understood we are for progress. We mean to be, and shall be, reasonable and just with the city and the individual." Will Mot Rebuild Before Spring. II. F. Davidson of the Davidson Fruit Co. says ho will not rebuild his fruit cannery and warehouses before spring. The company has not perfected plans as yet, and will wait until the first of next year before rebuilding. Mr. Davidson says he will likely cut out some of his business and branch out in others, but is unprepared now to say just what will lie done. The insurance people have reported favorably on the loss, and Mr. Davidson has been assured that he will be recom pensed to the full amount of his insu rance, some $17,000. Accept Pastors' Resignation. The resignation of Rev. J. L. Hershner as pastorof the Riverside Congregational church of this city was accepted by a majority vote at a meeting of the con gregation immediatly after services last Sunday morning. .No movement has been made so far for securing some one to fid Mr. Hersh ner's place. Mr. Hershner is putting up a tempo rary residence on his property on the hill', a 10x24 building, which he expects later to use for a stable when he builds a residence next summer. Ho expects to put in part of bis time this winter improving ins larm in the l ine Grove district. Steel From Wedge Strikes His Neck. Two pieces of flying steel struck Homer anAllcn in the neck while he was split ting wood on the George Massacer place on the F.ast Side, Tuesday noon. The Imy was brought to town and Ins wounds dressed. The doctors managed to locate one of the Hakes of steel, but the other remains in his neck. The 1kv was rendered unconscious by the accident, and at times during the afternoon suffered severe pains.
