Hood Kiver really seems like home

There are a numlxtr of f I rut-class men

itor Glacier: It makes me feel good
that there is some one In Hood River
that has not forgotten me, as it seems
that way when 1 receive the Glacier
and read evreything in it even the ad
vertisments. Now please do not gath
er from this that I am tired of Par
sons, for 1 am not, only it is just the
pleasant memories of Hood River.
We have been having a good many
rains now and this gives the urassand
different vegetables a good fresh look
also h good start.
Today Is Decoration day, but the
day was nothing to brag of, on ac
count of its being very threatening all
day, or up until 5 o'clock at which
time it cleared olf lovely, and looks
as though it would stay clear for at
least a while, and we sincerely hope
It will.
I Htrawberrles are nearly Bono, and
other fruit is coming In, namely,
blackberries, gooseiierries, cherries.
etc., which shows the advancement
of the spring.
The annual G. A. R. encampment
met here the '22nd. 'i'lrd, and 21th of
this mouth, but rain nearly two days
made It rather unpleasant and kept
many home that would otherwise have
come, notwithstanding we entertained
over (KXJ people from neighboring
towns and cities.
1 hear a good many say that they
intend to come to Portland for the
fair, so expect that Portland will have
a good many visitors.
Trusting to meet a good many of the
readers of the Glacier in Portland this

Portland, Or., May 30. The state

at the Lewis and Glurk exposition by
moving pictures. While sheaves of
Nebraska grain and other produce will
be shown extensively, the state will

and the moving picture shows will lie
free to all.
Nebraska will feature her corn dis

Woolen Mill Forced to Close.
Pendleton Kast Oregonian.
Tomorrow afternoon the Pendleton
Woolen mills will be closed down and
the statement made to employes by
Manager I'Vrguson is that the" shut
down will bo for an iudetlimte time.
To the Hast Oregonian Mr. Ferguson
stated this morning that owing to the
extreme high price of wool at the
present time ho will manufacture only
such goods during the coming season
as he receives orders for, and even
then he is not desirous of securing
any new business. According to him
the wool market is now in such a
shape that ho does not consider it safe
to manufacture any more goods than
ho has actual orders for. First, lie
cause he feels that orwlng to the ad
vanced prices the demand for woolen
goods will fall otf, and also, because
he is afraid of a decline in the mar
ket with the stock upon his hands.
"Last year the price for scoured wool
was in the neighborhood of 02 cents,"
said he, "while now it is ranging from
(id to 70. Consequently it is necessary
to advance the price of the manufac
tured goods, and this is a difficult
matter to do. It would simply be a
speculation should I keep the mill go
ing and till the warehouse with unsold
stock as usual, and I am not in a po
sition to plunge."

Fruit Wanted for the Fair.
Rural NortuweHt.
To the Editor. Will you kindly
publish through the columns of your
paper an appeal to the fruit growers
of the state for their hearty support
of the horticultural exhibit at the
Lewis and Clark fair? This is Ore
gon's opportunity, and we must rise
to meet it, or loose all beuellt from
the large sums of money that have
been expended for this purpose. We
have a large space to keep filled with
fruit and we munt have a continuous
supply of fruits in season from nil
parts of the stato. The State Com
mission will pay all expresa and
freight charges on fruit sent for the
state exhibit, but we cannot afford to
buy the fruit, for it will be readily
seen that It would require a very
heavy expense; but if each grower
will contribute a little the burden will
not be felt. The individual and the
locality will receive full credit for
anything sent in, the same as though
It was exhibited in tho grower's own
conuty display.
1 would suggest that fruit-growing
localities call meetings and appoint
committees to look after this matter.
Let us show the world the finest hor
ticultural display ever seen at any
fair. W1LIICR K. NEWELL,
Superintendent of Horticulture.
The matter which Mr. Newell calln
attenton is one of great importance,
Owing to the fact that nearly every
county in Oregon in which fruit grow
ing is an important industry is mak
ing a county display, the choice fruits
appear likely to be found at the
county exhibits to such an extent a
to leave tho state fruit exhibit in a
condition which will be discreditable
to the state. Mr. Newell was appoint
ed superintendent of the state horti
cultural exhibit but a few weeks ago.
Prior to that time no one was looking
specially after this matter. With
the exception of apples, which were
secured last fall, and put into cold
storage, there is a woeful luck of ma
torial for the disbluy. There is very
little exhibition jar fruit except what
was at Ht. Louis, and some of that
dates clear back to t he time of the
Chicago exposition. Fruit preserved
for exhibition does not improve In
appearance with age. In order to
keep up a creditable display it will lie
nocessnry for Mr. Newell to have a
steady supply of the fresh fruits
which are In season throughout the
time of tho fair. The funds which
are assigned to hint for the fruit (lis
play are not sufficient to allow him to
purchaso his fruit, but are ample to
pay express and freight charges.
The space assigned for tho fruit ex
hibit is a mi ilo for a flue diHplay. The
visitors will naturally expect to find
in the fruit display a complete show
ing of the best that Oregon can do.
Without a great amount of puhlic
sprited aid on tho part of the fruit
growers of the stato this display will
full fur short of what it should be.
and none will feel its shortcomings
more fully than the fruit growers of
Oregon themselves when they come
to the far.
The editor of this paper has person
al knowledge of a case where one ap
peal to the farmers of a county of less
than 4000 inhabitants In South Dakota
for agricultural productions to bo
used by a railway company in making
exhibitions brought in contributions
worth several hundred dollars. The
same kind of spirit Is needed among
fruit growers in Oregon in aid of this
fruit exhibit. The horticultural cred
it of the state Is at stake.
We trust that no fruit grower, who
might otherwise be generously dis
posed, will stifle his generosity in
giving fruit because he happens to
know of cases of hoggishnoHS in Port
laud in connection with the fair. The
human hog abounds everywhere ami
comes to tho front whenever ho has
opportunity. The holding of u great
fair is always an opportunity for hog
glshness to display itself. There are
very few of tho men who are working
fakes and charging extra prices when
they can who havo done anything
towards getting up tho fair. The
majority of tho people of Portland
gain nothing directly from the fair.
but are for the time being out of
pocket by reason of it. This paper
contributed as much us it felt able
towards the fair, but the amount so
contributed Is not one-third as much
as It will bo out of pocket by reason
of tho holding of the fair. It is so
... S. 1- . . I '1,1 ,
wiiu many outers, mere is no way
in which the majority of tho people
of the city gain any direct returns
from the holding of the fair. The re
turns to them and to the iieonle of
toe state win lie or the indirect kind.
which it takes tho "long run" to
bring about.
lliere is no class of people in the
state who can bo more benefited in
the long run by a thoroughly good
advertismeut of their products at the
fair than the fruit growers. One of
the greatest elements of tho success
of Hood River us a fruit growing sec
tion has been its persistent advertis
ing of its fruits by taking advantage
of every opportunity to disnlnv them.
There will not again for many years be
an opportouuity for the fruit growers
of Oregon to advertise their fruit such
as is all'orded by the ljewis and Chirk
fair, tiood or bad. it is certain t hat
the Oregon exhibit at this exhibition
will uttract more attention than it was
possible for any state exibit to attract
at St. Louis. The display of fruit was
so vast in extent there, that both the
eye and mind became weurv. It will
not be so in Portland. The visitors
will carry away wit h them a clear and
distort idea of Oregon's superior fruit
and will come with high expectations.
The fruit growers of the state can not
alford to have n state display which is
unworthy of the state.
Mr. Newell will do tho liest possible
with everything which is sent. The
fruit w ill lie labeled so as to show
where and by whom it is raised. Fruits
like cherries and strawberries are
needed every day while they are in
season.
