HOOD RIVER GLACIER, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1805. i ODELL MICHIGAN MAN IS PLEASED WITH FRUIT l!y Koswell Shelley. Odell, East 1Ioo1 River Valley, Sept. 19. Mr. and Mrs. J. U Blount ii( Barrett, accompanied by Mrs. Mac Donald of Taooma, were callers at the Little White store last Sunday morn ing, while touring the Kant Side. Mrs. MaoDonald ia an old friend of the Dlounts, and this being her first visit to Hood Hirer valley, ihe ia brim full of enthusiasm over the well rounded picture of suburban homes, picturesque scenery and the evidences of modern civilization here. Mr. and Mrs. lilnunt always enjoy a look at this section, and never fail to com ment favorably upon the lavish work ot nature in and about Odell. Mrs. lilouir loves to dwell upon the scenic effects presented through nature, and says it is rasy to live upon scenery, provided you get three meals a day Call again. Mr. and Mrs. Roswell Shelley spent the better part of last Sunday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Tousey, high up upon the hills, southwest of Odell. This ranch Is known as the old Kowley place, but only in name, for the Touseys have for several years spent their Income in development work, so that today they have 11(10 fruit trees growing. Besides this they have an abundance of hay and vege tables. Their potato crop ia looking exceptionally floe, showing a vigorous growth, and retain ing a fresh green color. And this leads up to repeat iigain the fact that the mountain home possesses many advantages over the valley, chief of which is its freedom from frost, and the splendid crops grown without irrigation. Mr. Tousey is engaged in teaching in Portland, and just as soon as bis place is upon a revenue-producing basis sufficient to justify him, be will retire from this work and devote bis time on the place. . There we met Mr. and Mrs. Adams expending a I friends and from Michigan, who are few davs with their old neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Tousey, and Mrs. Foster, who was Mrs Adams' school teacher during her childhood days. Mr. and Mrs. Adams are well-to-do people; with large experience and travel, having made a similar trip West six years ago, and are amazed at the marvelous changes that have taken place in Oregou since their last visit. Mr. Adams is engaged in the breeding of fine sheep, the growing of apples and grapes, and also inter ested in the creamery business. Referring particularly to the grape industry, he says that the state law prohibits them making the grapes into wine, yet they have bulit up a large trade on grape juice, huI that the demand Is greater than the supply and has been for years and at a price which is profitable. He says the only thing against the business is the shortage of labor. This is fast becom ing a serious drawback, and he pre dicts the same condition In our valley in a few years. Mr. Adams will prove a good adver tiser for Oregou on his return borne, for be voluntarily told me that he had found several things that were better than the same things grown in Michi gan, to wit: Pears, tomatoes and some other fruits, and although he had for years raised and sold mutton sheep, that it remained for Oregon to produce the very best mutton chop he ever ate In all bis life. As we broke bread together at the generous Tousey table, he told ns many things of interest, one of which was concern ing the packing of fruit In Michi gan a state law controls the packing to the extent that no grower is al lowed to paok bis own fruit. There Is also a law regulating the spraying of apples, so that should the grower refuse to spray when ordered so to do, the state does it at the growers' expense, and he says that to establish and maintain a reputation on fruits it must be done that way, and that the Oregou growers should encourage the enactment and enforcement of rigid laws along this lino. Mr. and Mis. Adams are overflowing with kiud expressions concerning the state of Oregon, its people and its great future. We thoroughly enjoyed our short visit with them and reluctantly said good-bye. L. M. Wilson, who lives near Odell, has on exhibition at the Little White store samples of alfalfa of first and second cropB, the seed having been ; sown last spring. The first crop sam ple measures 5 '2 feet, and the second crop sample 3 f et in length, botu of which retain the blue blossom, closely resembling the famous blue bells of Scotland. Mr. Wilson has only ten acres, but it will soon be de veloped to the point that it will take care of him if he keeps it or bring him a good price if he should want to sell. A. King of the West Side called at the Little White store last week. He was out with a party of "show mes. " Mr. Shepard was spokesman for the party, and said be was much im pressed with what he had seen of the valley; that it was a revelation to bim and that his visit here would always be a pleasant recollection. A large number of Odellites were in The Dalles last week as witnesses in the will contests in the matter of the estate of Daves Divers and also the estate of J. W. Black. We called it Hood River day at The Dalles. The decision in the Divers caso was "no cause for action. " The Black case is not yet closed. We were informed by one of the attorneys in open court that the Divers case was the first case of a will contest in Wasco county. J. P. Thompson of Hansen & Thomp son of The Dalles, is here moving lumber from Mr. Thomson's mill in Dukes valley and shipping the same to The Dalles. The lumber will be shipped from Hood River on a scow. They expect to ship 185,000 feet. The rough lumber will be used in their box factory, while the clear lumber will lie dressed and sold for finishing lumber. Mr. Thomson is an enterprising gentleman, and is oounted us oue of us, as be owns a large ranob in Dukes valley. He will remain here for sever al days superintending the shipping of the lumber. Next year Mr. Thomp son hopes to have a box factory at his mill in Dukes valley, which will save the firm a large amount of freight money, which at present must be paid in the shipping of the lumber. Miss Mae Hull, who is one of the tcaohers in the Odell school, arrived last Friday from her home in Kugene. Miss Hull comes to us highly recom- 1 I H I IMS I I am small. I am round. I nni pink.

Owing to my late arrival at borne last Saturday evening, I failed to bear the prorgam of the exercises at the school house, and my report thereof must be meaner. Professor Neft. the county superintendent, pre sided. Troy Shelley delivered a pledg ing welcome address, which was re sponded to In a happy manner by Professor Wiley of Hood River. The prorgam was not carried out as it would probably have been had Direct or Cnmeg been present, lie was sum moned to The Dalles to the bedside of his wife, who is ill in a hospital there. The address was given by State Superintendent Ackorman, and was along practical educational lines. It was attentively listened to by the lurge audience. We are requested at this writing o say tnat Professor rinues of HUlsboro, Ore., has been emloyed as teacher In the Odell school. This completes the list or teachers for the Udell school, and judging from their recommenda tions we fuel assured that we have a strong corps of instructors. The work of this year should tell. School will open next Monday, the 25th inst. At 3:30 p. m. last Sunday we had the pleasure of listening to a sermon here delivered by the Rev. Mr. Nelson of Hood River, that was truly refresh ing. The eloquent appeal that fell from the speaker's lips, clothed in language choice and sweet, came to us like the gentle voice of the mother, whoso heart is ever tilled with that love thut Is linked with divinity. Tho preacher quoted Mrs. Wilcox at one point of his sermon, and as she is perhaps my favorite author, I beg to quote from her also. I do this to better illustrate the linking of human with divine love. She says: "There is only oue earthly love that is wholly pure and unselfish; only oue love that rises above passion, and that is the parent's love for their offspring; the mother's love for her child." S. J. Kimes, the principal emloyed in our school, was but here Monday arrauging for a house. Mr, Euues has a wife and a boy four years old. His family will arrive next Saturday. Mrs. Dun Smith has some tine sam ples of onions and string beans op ex hibition at the Little White store. Mrs. Carnahuu of Dukes valley left for exhibition Inst Monday a sample of the liartlett pear grown on her brother's place, David D. Dodge, that for color and perfection exceeds anything ever before seen in tho pear line. This pear grew on a tree plant ed one year ago last spring, then a yearling tree.
