HOOD RIVER GLACIER, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1904.
HOOD RIVER
November Lewii
J
U8T where the turbulent waten of
the Hood river pour into those of
the niiuhty Columbia, enthroned
among the surrounding hills and guard
ed by the snow-napped icntinelf of the
valley, nestle oneof tlieinoHt beautiful
little cities in Oregon aye, fn all the
West. As one stands on the heights of
the city -of Hood River and views the
slorioua panorama spread by the lavish
hand of a bounteous natnre, the mujes-
tic Columbia, ever rushing towards the
sea, the broad expanse ol lerine valley,
so thickly dotted with comfortable
homes and wealth-yielding orchards
sees 'to the distance he timber-clad
mountains holding in ' tlieir fastnesses
untold wealth for bin wh will wrest it
from them when one views all this
and considers that-hand in hand with
all this beauty and grandeur goes one of
the most delightful and equable of
climates, the wonderful growth and
rapidity with Which, not only the city
of Hood River, but the whole of the
valley bearing the same name, is com
ing Into prominence and attracting the
attention of Easterners, is no longer a
mystery.
Though the town was platted about
twenty years ago, its growth for many
vears was slow j Ave years ago it num
bered only 600 inhabitants. At that
time new vigor was infused into the
commercial life by a few of its citizens,
who realized that the wonderful re
sources at their command pre-destined
them to an important foothold in the
industrial and commercial world. And
already they have met with amnle evi
dence that their efforts and time are not
mis-spent. Hood River has a popula
tion at the present time of 1800, with
every prospect of rapid and lasting
growth as it comes more and more into
the public-eye. Situated on the extreme
northern border of the treat state of
Oregon 27 miles from Mount Hood,
the pride of all loyal Oregonians, only
66 miles from Portland it din every
thing to snake it a desirable site for a
home.
nooa Kiver valley Is pre-eminently a
fruit-growing district. The strawberries
and apples grown here -have secured
recognition in all the leading markets
of the United Ktutes-on account of their
superior sine, flavor -and color. The
strawberry first drew attention to the
fact that In the soil and climate were
combined such conditions as exist in
few, if indeed, in any other section. A
peculiarity of the Hood River berry
aside from its wonderful size is that its
rich color is not surface, but extends
clear tli rough the fruit, oauslng it to
remain red when cooked and canned,
whereas uet berries fade when heated
or at least after- a short time. After
being canned two or three years the
Hood River berry Is found to lie as
vivid in color as when plucked from the
vines. Another very desirable quality
which this bery "-possesses is remark
able firmness, which permits its being
'shipped in the fresh state as fur as the
i Atlantic sea coast, a distance of over
4000 miles, where they arrive in first
'class condition. They are shipped in
wfrigerator cars, by special trams to
the principal Eastern cities daring the
'berry season and are put on the mar
ket in such perfect condition that they
eominaiid higher prices than do the
berries grown locally. For example,
s this-year Hood Itiver berries after a
2000-raile journey sold for $2 a (Mate in
the Markets ef Chicago when Michigan
berries, . picked the day before, wore
i)ly bringing 11 per crate In the same
'markets.
In 1904 Hood River shipped Kast
fiOjOOO crates of strawberries, netting
tlie growers f 140,0110. This does not
include the immense amount used
locally, which would probably aggre-
gate another 25,000 crates.
A marked peculiarity of this valley
is that west of the Hood River are
grown these remarkable berries, while
'the soil on the eastern bank is found
"much better adapted to'tlie cnlture of
' Ihb apples which have miulu the valley
famous. About 800 acres are devoted
to benr raising, the majority of the
"Holds being small, from one to five
eres. These fields run right up to the
trfty llmlts. BTid this is laughingly urged
s a good reason why city lots are so
Mgh prhd, the land is too valuable to
'devote to bnilding homes tipon. This
terry land is a rich, reddish, sandy
loam, and has large percentage of
what is known as shot gravel i. e., a
mall gravel, which resembles nothing
no much as ordinary shot. When this
to exposed to the air as the ground is
cultivated it deteriorates and eventually
disappears in a large measure. Hden-
tints him us uiai it is me iron found in
this gravel which imparts the fine color
ana firmness to the flood Itiver
fruit.

'Most of these berry farms-are of inch
fee that they can be cultivated and
cared for by the owner without oubdde
help until the l.arwwt is ready to
gather. These farms wll at from S00
to 1500 an acre, and raife from one to
two . hundred crates per .acre, owing
largely to the care lined in their cultiva
tion. The leading variety used for com
mercial purposes is that known as
Clark's Seedling.
There is considerable uncleared berry
land available which ,mHy he obtained
t very reasonable price. Jt is an
ideal place for a small farm. What is

completely fill the boxes, ii the stand

ventol the growers are orgunixed for
marketing their own berries under the
name of the Hood River Fruit Urowers'
union. A few rrowers ship Indepen
dently, and the balance consign their
berries to local commission men.
Nor is the berry eeason as short as
rome might Imagine. Hood River val
'ley is composed of a series of ledges or
benches, rising from the Colomliia
river back to the mountains. On the
lower bench, where the elevation is
about 100 leet, the berries are ready for
market by the middle of May; on the
next ledge, at an elevation of 400 feet,
they attain per foot ion two or three
weeks later; on up at what is known as
Mount Hood settlement, where the
elevation is 1500 feet, the Fonrth of
July finds the berries at their prime,
while higher yet, and onlv eight mile's
from the city of Hood River, on the
dope of Mount Defiance, the residents
enjoy the luscious frait about the middle
of August, ho that wilhiu a distance of
eight miles they have strawlmrries
practically from the middle of May
until the first of September.
While but passing attention has boen
given other small fruits, all flourish to a
remarkable degree, and need only an
opportunity to add immeasurably to
the valley's wealth.
Ope of the crying needs of the valley
it a cannery, as much fruit goes to
waste on account of the lack of adequate
means to care for it. A capitalist or
company seeking location could not
happen on a better oi or a surer bnsi-

ness venture than a cannery at Hood
River.
Jtut strawberries are only one of the
fruits which have made Hood jtiver
famous. Kqiiall v or even more familiar
is the term Hood itiver apples. Apple
buyers from the Ksst tell us there is
absolutely no competition in the whole
world for the Hood R'ver Spitzenherg
and the Yellow Newtown I'ipoin. Thev
are without peer. Kueli sixe and radiant
color is unknown outside of the little
valley. The iron which we have men
tioned as lending color to the berries,
combined with the continuous summer
snnshino, imparts a warm glow to the
apples which makes them of such
beauty that when put up in fancy car
tons and tied with ribbons the Spitztm
bergs readily sell for $1 per dozen for
the holiday trade in New York and
London. They are eagerly sought f r
by the fancy fruit Simula, hotels, oeean
steamers and restaurants. The Spi
enlierg, a rarely beautiful vivid red
apple, is the favorite in the United
States, but in London, Liverpool, Ham
burg, ISerlin and other European cities
the Yellow Newtown is the choicer
fruit, bringing as high as $.'1.05 per box,
and netting the grower (12.25.
Ihere are ahout 28U0 acres of growing
orcnanie in me valley, ilowever many
of the trees are not yet bearing. ft it
estimated that the crop this year will be
a (x, ut KKJ.ooo (iiiHhels, or 100 carloads.
Figuring on a conservative yield of 300
bushels per acre, fruit men of this sec
lion say that the yield by 1907 should
be between 800,000 and 1,000,000 bush
els. When we know that the entire
crop this year has been told f o. 1
Hood River at $2.10 per box for 4-tier
Spitzonbergs and $1.76 for 4 tier Yellow
Newtowns, and that there are but Oil
4-tier apples in a box, we gaiti some
Idea ot what an enormous source of
wealth the orchards are and will be to
the residents of this valley.
These two varieties lead in the com
mercial orchards, though many Huld
wins and lien Davis are planted, prin
cipally as a pnllenizer. While other
varieties raised here are remarkably
fine, they can lie grown in other local
ities, but the Spitzenberg and Yellow
Newtown attain no such perfection else
where In the world. At Rogue River,
Oregon, and in a portion of West Vir
ginia, they raise very fine Spitzenberg
apples, but not to compare with those
of this valley and thev never bring the
price the hitter fruit does.
It is an inspiring sight to drive
through the valley at apple harvest
time. The orchards are planted with
ftiethodiful precision, the ground Is as
smooth as a lawn, the trees are pruned
into uniform size and droop almost to
the ground under their loads of red and
yellow beauties. The majority of trees
are pruned in what is known as the
wineglass shape and are headed so low
moBt of the fruit is picked by men
standing on the ground. It is then
hauled to the apple house, where it is
burnished by hand and packed by pro
fessional packers. No fruit is Hliipped
until inspected and pronounced in first
class condition, The growers are
thoroughly up-to-date in methods of
growing, handling and shipping, and
have won many prizes at the world's
fairs in the past few years.
Four-tiei" apples are tho standard,
while 3 and lU-tier apples are sold to
the fancy trade and bring prices accord
ingly. A fruit fuir was held In October of
this year, which was a source of won
der to the many visitors. We print
some illustrations this month of fruit
exhibited there which speaks volumes.
This exhibit was shipped intact to the
tair at tit. jiuis, where t has attracted
universal attention and admiration and
proven a great advertisement for the
valley and the whole stale of Oregon.
i Here are lew absentee landlords in
this section almost all the fruit furms
Iming 0crated by resident owners, and
us twenty acres or less is the usual sized
farm it is almost like a city. A very
few acres properly handled will soon
make its owner independent. We were
shown one orchard of three acres of
10-year-old Yellow Newtowns which
last year netted its owner $1,100 per
acre. In this orchard we were shown
one tree which this year produced SO
boxes of apples. There are from 115 to
UK) trees to the acre, depending on the
variety and the individual fancy of the
oreliardist.
Only a small fraction of the available
apple land is under cultivation. Un
cleured fruit land can be bought for
from .M) to $100 per acre; that which
is cleared and ready to nlant brim
from $100 to $400 per acre, while bear
ing orchards sell as high as $1000 per
rnvrw.
JNoris the fruit the only source of
tneotne. I lie lumber induHtry is bring
ing $350,000 into the valley and is only
in its infancy. There are aliout 150,000
leet oi logs cut yearly m tho surround
ing mountains and rafted down to the
big mills located at the city of Hood
River. The mill men tell us there are
millions upon millions of feet of the
choicest timber in the vicinity of the
Hood river, which will keep the mills
cutting 200,000 feet of lumber daily,
busy for fiftv years.
(irain and hay are among the princi
pal export crops of tho valley. Clover
and timothy hav irrow verv lienw. th
ami timothy hav grow very lieavv
former yiuhliug'four to five tons a sea
son in two cuttings. This affords
unsurpassed dairying facilities, which
in time will be developed, though np to
the present time it bus Imkm ov,.rl,n,l.
owed by other Industrie.
llomt Kiver, with an abundance of
water power at baud, offers every in
ducement lor manufacturing plants of
various kinds. A pulp mill would do
well, as would also a woodenware mill.
An engineer's measurement ot the
water power in tho stream of Hood
river shows 10,000 horse power per mile
for a distance of ten miles. This gives
a total oi niu,iwu norse power, a power,
when converted into electrical energy
sullicient to operate the machinery of
the state. A fifty-foot dam in the
stream of this river is a projected
sciieiue now under way by local capital
ists. Transportation facilities are always of
considerable moment in the growth' and
development of a new section. They
are of the best at Hon I River. The O.
R..A N., the Oregon line of a great
trans-continental road, passes through
the city, affording three passenger
trains each way daily. The Columbia
river, with its many dailv steamers,
offers another and easy moile of trans-
r nrting produce; while comietition
eeps the freight rate at tho minimum.
Resides these. Hood River is within
easy access of threo other trans-continental
roads, sti there is never a dearth
of shipping facilities.
While speaking of transportation It
will not be amiss to mention the excel
lent country roads found in this valley.
They are kept in fine condition by con
stant work, and the grades are not much
more dillicult than in a level prairie
country.
In the immediate city there is a plan
on foot for an electric street car line
between (he city and the river docks.
A franchise has U'en ainlied for and
the promoter tells us there
is every
chance of its being readily granted, and
he promises that the line will be ready
to operate within 90 days from the date
the franchise is granted. All wires,
rails, poles, cars and other equipment
have already been secured, so there
need be no delay. This will greatly
facilitate handling orchard products, as
it will handle freight as well as passen
gers. And what of Hood River for a home?
The climate is very mild and equable.
The eastern range of the Cascade moun
tains protects it from the stormy winter
una the high range or the same moiin
tains on the west protects it from the
heavy ruins which visit the state further
west I lie rainfall here is about 30
inches, affording ample moisture for
maturing early crops, while several
large irrigating ditches enable the
fanner to produce abundant yields of
all crops throughout the summer
regardless of the summer rains.
lien imvis, winesap and Jonathan are
tne cmer commercial varieties grown
there.
The Ixiwis anil (Mark fair is not well
advertised in the Kant, says Mr. Robin
son. roiw ami then there Is someone
who has heard of the l'ortland exposi
turn, but very few. He saw no worlds'
fair literature whatever. But many
people are coming west next summer to
see the great 1 acilic coast country. Al
most every one is talking about the
coast, and next summer there will be
great immigration westward.
The Colorado fruit section is not to lie
compared to tho Hood Itiver country
The people there have no water to drink
save what they get from the Irrigating
ditches. When I lie land is irrigated it has
a tail of sinking. I none place where JUr.
Robinson passed along the road the
uncultivated land on one side was six
leet above that which had been irrigat
ed. This sinking of the land makes it
very difficult to construct ditches.
Hen Davis apples sell for $1, while
fancy Winesups bring $1.60. The orch
ards being so near Denver it taken but a
little while to run the fruit into market.
Tho Hpitzenberg does not grow there
liecause it does not color up, as else
where, and nowhere as at Hood River.
While apple culture is paying in the
(irand Canyon, many of the apple men
are grubbing out the six and seven-year-
old apple trees and planting to peaches,
because they believe there is more mon
ey in the latter fruit.
There are all the usual business inter
ests represented in Hood River, to an
extent very unusual in a town of its
size. A good electric light system,
waterworks, two stable and conserva-
ive banks, a live newspaper, particu
larly eilicient schools, fraternui societies,
a vigorous and growing commercial
club, which is handled in a manner to
mli mud to the credit of the city anil
her institutions all combine to make
of Hood River a most desirable home
town.
It is not necessary that one have large
capital. Here is a place and a welcome
for the dinner and the man of small
means who is willing to work not only
singly, but in conjunction with his
neighbor for the upbuilding of this
thrice favored portion of the footstool.
The secretary of the Commercial club
will gladly reply to inquiries concerning
tho Hood River country.
