ODELL
HE IS SURPRISED
AT ODELL'S GROWTH
!y Roewoll Shelley.
Odell, Kast Hood River Valley, Aug.
2. L. N. Blowers and family and Sam
I'.lowere and family passed Odell last
Sunday morning on their way to the
bridge ou the Mount Hood road Ke
turning in the evening, they lunched at
the Little White Htore park. Although
w arm and duBty, they enjoyed the day's
outing. In speaking of the develop
ments of this eection, L. N. was eur
prised at the improvements here, and
ventured the prophecy that Odell would
foon develop Into a respectable village.
The advent of the railroad will hasten
this result, for then it will not be necei
sary to haul the ranch products to town,
and the apples and othur products from
this and the Mount Hood section will be
shipped from Odell. This accomplished,
the mercbanlse stocks will be increased,
for whenever there is a demand the sup
ply soon follows.
James Kggart, his father and Frank
K. Huncorn went to snow-capped Mount
J lood last week. Mr. Huncorn climbed
to the summit, while some of the party
looked at the mountain top from a point
eighteen feet below.
Recently there have been some able
ministers at the Union church here. For
a week past Rev. II. W. Jones, who was
formerly pastor of large church at
Buffalo, N. Y,, has been conducting
meetings. Mr. Jones is an earnest,
forcefulspeaker. With choice language
coming from the heart, he holds the au
dience. Quite au interest is manifest
and a number of persons have respond
ed to his call and Bignilied their inten
tion of leading a higher and better life.
Mont people, 1 think, desire such a life,
yet for reasons which do not reflect upon
the efforts of the most consecrated niln
inter of the gospel, they listen to the
most touching appeals from the pulpit
orator, still failing to respond. And
why? Most of us who are in the shadow
of the evening of life have had lessons
burned Into our hearts with letters of
fire, until we are compelled to think and
act our real selves. Intelligence and
reason make demands upon tin that we
cannot, try hard as we may, discard
Hence a certain class of people are con
stantly misunderstood and cons I'tieiitly
misjudged by those conducting evangel
istic work. And sad as it limy appenr
toothers, there are many persons in thin
world, who in mature years, are forced
to change the convictions that youthful
environments had made, and perhaps in
so doing they get upon a broader anil
higher plane of life, rather than being
in a lost condition. We are always glad
to note and commend any gxd work of
this kind, for we realize that the rise
and fall of nations depend upon their
moral standard, Cities and government)
builded with blood money cannot Ion
endure; yet remembering this, it is well
not to forget that you "cannot gather
grapes from thorns, nor figs from this
tles; neither can the leopard change bin
spots."
The writer is In receipt of a letter
from J.L. Ferguson, of Minn., who is to
arrive here on Thursday, the 'M of Au
gust, to investigate coinlilioi s here with
reference to the immediate building of
a creamery. Mr. Ferguson has large ex
perience in the creamery business mi l
writes that he would like to meet the
people interested in this enterprise. In
asmuch as the IliueUood people. Iiadii'
ready taken the matter up, there is little
encouragement to offer -Mr. Ferguson. I
mention this that your readers may lie
informed that ti.ere is good prospeci for
the building of a creamery if the people
want it. Tills must he it good field and
the creamery businessa paving one from
the fact that people of experience ami
with capital are readv and anxious to
engage in the business. Let's have one
and on the right kind of basis when we
get it.
At a sohool meeting laHt Saturday
veiling, the 2'Jth, the directors wore
authorized by a unanimous vote to
Issue warrants in the name of the dis
trict to pay for the enlarging of the
sohool house. The now building is
rapidly assuming shape and v.ili I e
enclosed this week. It will bo an im
posing structure and complete in
every detail, and a credit to the dis
trict. The Odell brothers. Will Smith and
D. R. Shelley left Odell lust Wednes
day afternoon on a prospecting trip
In the mountains. They visited Lott
Lake and Lako Chitwood and not
satisfied, scaled tiie mountain fast
ness (f mi almost impenetrable region
and discovered another lako, the
banks of which they claim no white
iiihu had over trod. These fellows
were flushed with victory ou their
return and are now the only or
iginal Wild Hills, of the woolly West.
Tho music of tho hunter, his horn and
his hound is a precious rnlio of the
primitive Western days and Is sweeter
music to the writer than "Lilwratti'i
bund." Such incidents remind the
old pioneer of the days of long ago,
when he watched by night for thi
deer to come into the lick, or took
iiis stand by duy with his ear tunocl
to the first fresh sound of the hound
on the hot trail, and as the souud
irow louder and maror. how hi-
I nerves toned up and his blood bound
ed through his veins on the approach
of the stag in his race into the jaws
I of death. Then the pride that follows
I as he nails the velvety horns over the
doorway of his log cabin, a trophy ol
I tho chase. With the parting of the
I ways and tho passing into the history
i of the West the days of the hunter,
I comes many a regret to those who
j blazed the trail and who only knov
I tho rure sport of a free unfottorod life
i in the once far off Western couutry,
I where rolls the Oregon. Such mon got
I moro out of life than does the trust
magnate or the bloated millionaire of
tho 2'ith century.
Mrs. Crockett left last Monday night
to join her daughter, Ola, who is now
at Moaoliem in the Blue mountains.
Trouble, illness and death have visit
ed the Crockett family during the
past year, and her friends wish her n
respite from trouble soon.

A great many people are visiting
the "lava beds'' ou tho Louis Hurk

tho most picturesniie nluees in the
valley. From the top of tho lava beds
a view of the entire valley may be ob
tained. From beneath the lava rock
streams of pure ice cold water flow
and wind their way northwesterly,
shaded by tho tallest tir trees, making
an ideal place to camp ami rest.
A party, among whom were Frank
Stanton, M. M. Hill and W. Fiko,
passed through here Saturday on their
way home from a week's outing. They
climbed to the summit of Mount
Hood, camped on Dog river, Tony
creek and other places. Hut they
said the prettiest camping place they
louiid or in fact ever saw, was at the
foot of the lava beds, between Koger
creek and the Middle Fork.

APPLE CROP GOOD
IN MOSIER VALLEY
By a Staff Correspondent.
Mosler, Or., Aug. 2. There never
before has been so much activity In a
buildings way in this city since its
inception. The people of Moiser have
awakened to their own importance
and while ti e country in and around
the city U ins', ly till i Eg up. the town
is experiencing a fine growth.
There are none who have made a
oa refill study of the soil condition in
the vicinity of Moeier but what will
say that it is splendidy adapted for
the growing of fruit. The settlement
was made here in an early day, and
there are still families or remnants of
families who were the early settlers.
There ia no prettier or more fertile
valley than where grows the. big apples
and the line berries. The ranchers who
have bad tho nerve and grit to stick
to it are today reaping the rewards.
While the apple crop this year will be
a light one iu the great fruit growing
valleys and in many cases only about
a fourth of a crop, the yield at Mosier
will average over a third, and in many
cases a half crop will be iu evidence.
Taking into consideration the high
price that apples will rule at this
rear, the farmers will tare very well.
Laat year's crop was so extremely
heavy that many of the orchards are
resting up this year as a result.
