ODELL
SUMMER MAKES HIM
THINK OF WINTER
My Koswell Shelley.
Odell, East Hood River Valley, July
2! After about a week' absence, the
Odell man ie home again and none
the worse for the trip, save for the
fnnt of the thermometer bobbing
around and below the 100 mark, he in
inclined to be lazy, and will probably
not catch half the items that are
worthy of note tbla time.
The fellow who said that we never
had more than three continuous days
of warm weather at a stretch in at
present conspicuous by bia absence.
Like the Hon. O. B. Moore said the
other day at Gladstone Park, in intro
ducing the famous cartoonist, Homer
Davenport: "1 am not going to rink
my reputation by prophesying that
Davenport will make you a good
speech; decide for yourselves after
hearing him." 80 the weather prophet
along with some other prophets now
in our valley, bad best subside, for we
can do without them. After all, these
warm days bring their reward, for
these are the days when we like to be
the ice man. Itight this way, plenty
of ice cold soft drinks at a nickle a
glass at the Little White store. This
ic was harvested from pure spring
water, when the thermometer regis
tured 108 degrees coldei than at this
writing.
Rev. J. II. Carnes of Terre Haute,
Did., la a guest of his brother, W. L.
Carnes. Last Nuuday at 11 a. in. be
preached an earnest, eloquent sermon
at the Union churob at Udell, taking
for bis theme the consecrated life of
Daniel, arguing that to do right was
easier than to do wrong, and paid
abundantly in this life, to say noth
ing of the future that awaits us. Mr.
Carnes is educated, cultured and ex
ceedingly graceful in the pulpit, and
soon convinced his hearers that he
needed no holp. He strikes from the
shoulder and hits hard. The crowd
seemed to enjoy the sermon Immense

Did you ever notice the Italance wheel in your watch'.' The balance wheel ot a watch gives five vibrations even
second, three hundred every minute, 18,000 every hour, 4:!'.',0(K) everyday, and I,"r.4S0,iHM every year. Ateacii
vibration it rotates about one and a quarter times, making l!Ui,S,"0,000 revolutions everv year.
In order that we may UUter undertand the stiendous amount of labor performed by these tiny wi.rks. let us
make a comparison with n locomotive having six-foot driving wheel'. Let it Iv run until its wheels shall have
given the same number ot revolutions that a watch balance gives in one year, and it w ill have covered a distance
equal to twenty-eight complete circuits of the earth. All tins a watch docs without other attention than winding
once every twenty-four hours.
Now, suppose both machines started in good order. The locomotive is oiled every titty minutes, is carefully
wiped and cleaned before being oiled. So that while doing the work of a watch for one year, it has been cleaned
6,if5 and oiled 23,010, (and is now in the tdiop for repairs.) While vour watch suppose it doen't look very dirty
and eveo it It still keeps pretty fair time wouldn't it do liettcr service and wear much longer if carefiillv cleaned
and properly oiled ONCE to every 14, (KM time a locomotive is?
ly, each one of us consoling ourselves
with the thought that he meant the
other fellow. We enjoyed tho sermon
and have heard many similar expres
sions concerning it. There were four
of the Carnes brothers present J. 1'.,
W. L., the Rev. J. H. and S. R.
There are six brothers in all, two of
whom reside in Powder Run valley.
Concerning this large family of hoys,
the preacher assured us publicly that
he would tell no tales out of school,
and we gladly pay ill 111 this compli
ment, that if he is as good a initu an
his brother and our neighbor, W. L.
Carnes, he will pass muster even as a
preacher.
Last Saturday the families of Mr.
Carter and Mr. Marshall of the east
side settlement passed through Odcll
lu search of a cooler place, some
where up Hood liver 011 the falls
road.
Many camp outfits have passed this
way recently. Indeed, there is a
strong temptation to follow the trail
of the soft whispering broe.a, as it
comes fresh to us from the depths cl
the forest, hut Duty's lash whips ok
Into line. These hot days will pigt
ail too quickly Ly, ami then again
the winter days co.ne on. So as the
f ears speed swiftly by, the winter of
ife comes too soon. To those who
improve the opportunities that sum
mer offers, winter has no dread. May
this not apply to Lie?
L. I). Iloyed ha the contract of
d.iubling tho capacity of the Odcll
public school building. When the
plans are carried out and the building
stands upon the ground completed in
detail according to the plans (and it
will lie) it will be a credit to the dis
trict. We are always glad to note
such lmpbrovements, foi I ehind such
an enterprise is the spirit of progres
sion that at present is pern 1 iting this
Western country, and which will add
laurels to its future, lint ve don't
heal anything more about tho piping
of spring water to the school grounds.
Is It possible that the district, wide
awake as it is to the necessity of in
creasing the school facilities by in
creasing the number of rooms and
teachers, shall let the time go by and
fail to provide pure water, and this,
too, at the epxenso of the health of
the pupils? We hope not. A medical
lecture last week at Gladstone Park

on this part icular question should have
been hoard by every patron of the
Odcll school. And while on the water
question, is it not about time to ask
the question when will Odell be fur
nished with water for irrigating pur
poses? There is little' use to sow
spring crops or even plant gardens
here without water for irrigation pur
poses, and Odcll will continually be
handicapped until she gets the water
she is untitled to.
The big pay roll above here on the
railroad work adds materially to the
business at Odell.
Hansen & Thomson of Dukes Vulloy
are now running their saw mill with a
full force and have a capacity of about
20,000 feet of daily. This is another
new ind istry, through which Odell
derives direct benefit ill the way of
trade. In fact Odell is the bub of a
large section of Kast Hood River val
ley, and within a few weeks even old
residents will be surprised at certain
developments that are almost sure to
materialize, concerning which we are
not yet at liberty to speak.
A few days ago business called us to
the randies of Frank Strang and J.
W. Wilson, a short distance southwest
of Odell. Over there in a sort of bole
in the world we found Frank Strang
with 4D acres and J. W. Wilson with '20
acres, each of which tract is partly
developed. They already have a
nursery stock of 10,000 trees, growing
on land which will prove the home of
the apple. Their land joins aa-i lays
line, with just enough slope for irri
gation, and is situated only a quarter
of a mile from the line of railroad
now lieiug built up the valley. Who
of the old timers when they Hrstcame
ever dreamed of tho iron Jhorse cir
cling the valley and skirting the foot
hills during their life time? Not one
of them. Then who of us if told ot
the wonderful things that will come
to us inside tho next ten years to
come? Not one of us. Think of the
prostrations, suffering and death in
Kastern cities by reason of heat.
Then remember that when evening
comes in Hood River valley and
Mount Hood's gentle breezes Inn our
brows that we can lie down aud sleep
and arise next morning refreshed.

la big enough intellectually to compre
hend the philosophy of one lilade of

twaddle of noma self styled inspired

We are well located for the building
of a creamery. We have the hay in
abundance. All we lack is cows in
sulticient numbers, but the herd will
soon lie increased and with the ad
vent of creameries will begin an era of
prosperity never before hoard of in
the vullcy. Let us keep the good work
going until we have accomplished
something.
Last week the following party of
Odellitos left home for Idaho: Clare
Crockett and his sisters Ada aud Vera,
and Wm. Kemp and wife; also Dr.
Howley and brother of Hood River.
Tho Odell party went in search of
health for Miss Ada Crockett, who has
been ill for some time. Her friends
indulge the hope that she may Mud re

We have some excellent bargains in
real estate and shall gladly show them
to parties looking for snaps.
Last week Henry Walter and J. V.
firnok, two young men from the East,
were touring the valley by way of
Odell.
The board of directors of the Apple
O rowers union were out last Monday
canvassing the valley with reference
to tiiis season's pack. C. Dethuiau
and (!. II. Sprout called at tho Little
White Store and informed us that the
growers were taking up the matter in
(lead earnest with the union, and
that present indications point to bet
tre prices for this season's crop than
those obtained last year. One thing
is noticeable about the Hood River
apple, to wit: The larger the output
the better the price, provided always
the pack is good. Each season adver
tises the former one.

The prophet with the venerable pa
triarch have moved to the mountains
for safety. It must lie near the time
for the valley to be deluged. Sup

river are turned milky white. Per
haps the angel has been dowu and
troubled the waters as in days of old
at the Pool of liethesda. Suppose the

himself dead when his prophecy fails
to inaterilaize, which, of course, will
lie the case, for the end is not yet.
Mr. Dodson with his wife have

Having, as we suppose, completed
the survey for the H. R. 1. Ditch Co.,
we have been expecting that the di
rectors would call a public meeting
and then make a statement to the
farmers as to the work done aud who
has estimated the cost of building the
new- ditch. lhere are quite a few
fanners who need enlightening on the
cost of the ditch. We think it would
be much better to get in touch with
eery farmer by discussing this mat

lieve evey farmer will say: "We will
vote for the money to build the ditch.

The fact that the railroad company
is now buying the right of way and
paying cash for the same on this side
of the river begins to look as though
we would surely have a railroad here
in the near future. Tho wait for the

made so often that many of the old
settlers will not believe they are go

toot of the engine, but all indications
now point to the actual consumatioii

dark as to what road is belli ml the en
