HOOD RIVER GLACIER, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1904. CORRESPONDENCE. ODELL. Referring to a paragraph fa last week's Glacier, which report the turn- in a dowu or an oner or a box for 8pitzeuburgt under the condiliona that the label of the Davidson Fruit Co. must be used, waa perhaps the proper thing to do, inasmuch as the union de sires to build up a inline under their own label. Yet it is significant and worthy of note. The fact that the Davidson Fruit Co. last year were able to rigidly enforce contract tbat was ironclad In its conditions touching the size and color of the apples made it possible to put upon the markets of the world peerless quality and give them name In the apple market the effects of which will be far-reacbing on the apple market of Hood Kiver valley in the future, and clearly proves the fact tbat after years of careful, pains taking work in the shipping of apples The Davidson Fruit Co. has established an enviable reputation, and one worth Dioney to them. There is much In a name. There is a wholesale house In Portland that paid f 10,000 dollars for the use of the uanie of the senior mem ber at the time of bis death which oc curred several years ago. No doubt the union understands their business and will get a good figure for the apple crop that passes through their hands. B. T. Younic lost hit famous horse, Trusty, last Saturday. He died after an illness of only a few hours. This is a serious loss. He was a splendid road ster and worth $200. Bert Boardrnan also lost his driving mare at Mr. Young's place last week. Mrs. B. T.Young and daughter Sadie, returned last Monday from Portland, where Sadie was receiving treatment in the sanitarium. She is much im proved. A trip last week to Willow Flat furn ished opportunity to note develop ments there that are worthy of men tion. C. R. Bone Is about rfuUblng up the work of clearing 20 acres on the brow of the Straight bill. The David son brothers are also busily at work burning and finishing the 40 acres undertaken last winter. The re cent transfer of C. R. Bone to the new fruit union means much to this section There will be at least 60 acres of apples planted on this tract In the spring which Is Ideal apple land. Such in vestorsas Mr. Van Horn are valuable acquisitions to our valley, and s investment are no experiments. One year's work by such a concern wr be the work of a lifetime of the average nianwhomust rely upon bisown bands to do the work, liesdes this, Mr. Va Horn's experience a a horticulturist is a pointer to such as are contemplat ing an investment in an apple orchard H. F. Davidson and family and some friends spent Sunday at Willow Flat. Lafe Roberta and family of The Dalles were guests of Mrs. Booth over Hunday. Mrs. Roberts I a daugbte: or Mrs. uootn. Oscar Cameron bad the misfortune, on hi way to town last Saturday, to break a wheel. He was loaded with hay, and while unloading the bay In slue Air. tucker gate be round some peaches that were so tempting that be neipea mmseir ana to a passemy re marked laughingly that there was m great loss wttliout some small gain. Mr Cameron does not worry no matter what happens. The Order of Lyons lust Saturday night were treated to some excellent readings and recitations after which feast of good things was served by the ladles and heartily enjoyed by the gen tlemen members. The ladies under stand now to react) the nearu or even their husbands. A. C. Staten and family, and Roger B. rianborn ana family were callers on the Little White Store people on Sun day afternoon. Messrs. Staten & Ban- born comprise the Hood Kiver Real Estate and Exchange Co. The busl n ess is certainly well represented by mese two gentlemen, ana lu tills pro gressive valley, if their business dot not prove profitable 1 have missed the mark in sizing theiu up. "A fellow feeling makes us wondrous kind, "and I nereuy extend my hand. Call again. A peep at Dukes valley last week furnished a delightful picture. Under ine innueuoe or water, green clover fields dot the valley, the second crop being nearly all boused. Under the glittering rays of sunlight Mount Hood stands like a lone sentinel seem ingly guarding the peaceful valley and furnishing inspiration for a column sketch, but during the strenuous days of woodhaullng romance gives place to reality. tue surplus or clover pasture, now that the meadows are cleared, Is an ar gument lu favor of dairying in the valley. School opened last Monday under favorable auspices. The directors of district No. 6 have given notice tbat a meeting of the pat rons of the school is called for Krldav evening, September SO, to vote whether or no this district shall establish the 9th grade In the school. As Odull is progressive district, and the school has now reached tbat point where the ad vanced courses are a necessity, in all likllhood the proposition will meet the nearly approval or the voters of the district. George Mwssey, the pedagogue of Dukes valley, was down to the store Monday morning and reports tbat out of 34 children drawing school money the school opened with 19 pupils. George seemed fully Impressed with the responsibility resting uuou him In shaping the destinies of the youngsters I in Duke valley, and will no doubt put I up a gooa acnooi. ueorge Is from the . Sunny Houth and has promised to lie the sunshlue of the school when the shutters are closed. BARRETT. F. N. Moore from Minnesota Is visit ing with W. N. Moses, who lately bought the T. Bishop place. Mrs. fc. Camp and son Charley have gone on a trip to the hop fields lu the Willamette valley. John Stranaban has been packing apples for E. Camp and Mr. Emerson. We notice quite a rush for apple and pear paper at the Rockford store. F.O. Brace passed through our streets on Friday with his steam saw ou bis way to U. Chandler's to cut the win ter s wood. Charley means to have tilings oommrlable tbls winter. H. D. Stewart, the painter, Is plying the brush at the Rockford store. It is the Inteutlon to have Rockford a re spectable and up-to-date store. - The Barrett School opened on Mon day, Septembers, with Professor C. I). Thompson as principal and Mr. Cash and Miss Norman In the other depart ments. James and Fred In galls have gone overland with team to the Yakima alley hop fields, where they expect to remain for the next 30 days. . B. F. Shoemaker Intends to put In five acres of hops. B. F. is taking the right move for hope la a paying Invest-1 ment. Just a fair crop yields 250 to the acre and hops are now worth 28 cents a pound. If our farmers are looking for a good percentage on their money Invested let them try, suy, four or five acres of hops. FRANKTON. School opened at Frankton and Co lumbia Monday with a large attend ance in all rooms. If the number arein creased very much it will require an other teacher. Uncle id. Calkins lost a fine cow last week. His cows are a flue strain of the Jersey breed and It is too bad he had to lose such a valuable annual. Spraying Is the order of the day now. From what observations we have been able to make of the orchards In this vi cinity, the crop will be Immense and of line quality. What has become of the new water company? Don't let the proposition full, boys, for water is what has made Hood Kiver famous and with a bleh ditch on the West Hide we can give the bast uiaersa stana oiron aiiiu crow ing. Robert Foley lost a fine fresh milch cow last week. Poisonous weeds, he thinks Is the cause. Tueie otiglil to be an expert examination of our flora and If there Is such a deadly plant In the neighborhood it should be cleaned out, root and branch. The animals that die should be subjected to the same careful examination, that an exact determina tion of the cause of their demise may lie arrived at. These losses in the Frankton neighborhood are hecomlnir entirely too frequent. In addition to the two mentioned this week, C. S. Wheeler lost a cow. M. R. Noble and D. C. (iai ralnaiit each lost a cow the same day, A. C. Stutcn lost a cow and two calves; liesldes these there are oth ers which cannot now be enumerated, all of which have died within the past year or two. Mr. Staten says his cattle were poisoned by licking his spray barrel. If this is the case. thesnraviiiK outfit can be kept where the cattle can not nave access to it, and It might be a wise precaution to cover the empty ings of ttie spray barrel or tank, when emptied after spraying, with dirt. It would be cheaper than buying another cow. PARKERTOWN. Mrs. 8. S Johns and daughter, Miss Alice, returned to l lie I'alles.last Wed nesday, to make preparations (or school.
