The Uuslneas Men's Associatioo gare their first annual banquet at toe Odd Fellows Hall Saturday evening and inrited guest to the Dumber i f 1UI, hut owing to Inability tc attend (Mily nbour 75 were in attendance, l'be spread ww ' prepared bv the la dles of the Christian churoh aud two long titles la (be oomniodiuu-i ball weie tilled with good things to eat ami nicely rec .rated, as was the ball Hst (.' Mmln was furnished by Ueat ty's orchestra. II C Smith, president of the asso ciation, acted bb toHstmaster and al (bciiK'i It waa bis first experience in that inpicity be did the honors in a way to retleot credit upou himself and the ussoclittiun. lie said in part: "l'l.o Portland Retail Uioeers Asso ciation was organized about a year ago iucl the Hood River Association wai organized soon attar. The bene fits are derived in many ways. We 11 ud we can do business In barmonv aud we And it a great aid to handle our credit business and save a large percentage of loss, l'be merchants of the state are forming these associa tions and coming into the state or ganization. Many think the work of the association covers only the retail grocers, but many lines of business are represented and any man doing a oredit busiueas can get benefits from tne association." P, r. Ktr.llh P..nnn.l.J InlK. tna.l "Hood River, Past aud Piesent.'' Mr. Smith said: "It Is thirty-two yeais tomoirow since I landed here with my traps on the sand bar on the banks of the Columbia. 1 was met with teams by the two or three pio neers who had preoeded me to the val ley. Peter illnrichs and M. Peelor bad wagons. Spring flowers were in bloom and the children were delighted with them and the country 1 bought thiee-quarters of a aeotiou on the Bel mont road, where we made our home, and afterwards donated a piece of land for the Franktou school bouse. there was a large orchard on the1 place, tbe trees planted twenty feet apart. There wai a nursery jeor by and 1 contracted trees of tbe proprie tor to set out more ground and also to Oil In vnoant spaces. In order to tma pi ices to set all tbe trees 1 had bought he put them in between the old trees, until tbe orchard resembled a nursery row. I soon made up my mind that this was to be a valley of almost limitless wealth and piedioted that the land would be divided Into small tracts, wbloh baS oomo to pass. ine present townsite was then a cow pasture, dotted with flue oak trees. Or. Robinson said on a visit to Hood River that while Virgluia waa tbe pioneer in the fruit business, in tbe United States she must now learn from Oregon how to grow fruit. Our apple orobards have taken the highest poeriou wiiere trutt Is bought 01 sold. As we are first la fruit we are first in other things. We aie first in sobool work. Old man Uoe'a dream was to have a maguitlcent school placed on tbe point overlooking the city. A prominent authority bas said that iiood River was tbe Ideal place for higher eduoaUon Portland would send their children to sobool here. We must also have good roads. No country can succeed without good roads It is estimated that this year's apple crop will make 14,000 wagon loads, wnion will nave to be hauled to towu over our toads. It would taks 100 teams foui months to bring them in. We need a trolley road to help move our crops." Truman tsuiler was tbe next speak er and at onoe put tbe assembly in good humor by telling a story of the uoy and tne torn pants. Mr. butlei said that tbe association was doing good work and there was much yet to be done, lie tnought tnny should get together oftener. l'be Poitland asso ciation gets together once a mouth. The banquets are a good thing, but they should be charged for end not have tbe expense borne by tbe asso ciation. Hon. A. A. Jayne waa called and said that be was unfortunate in these gatherings foi the reason that he could neither drink colfee nor smoke. "1 was impressed with the remarks ot the toastuiaster," -aid Mr. Jayne. " The objects of tho association aie good, tbe obief end being to koep tab on bad debtors, I think that depends much upon tbe poiut ot view. Now we all lealize we are down in the big book nnd some of us would open that hook with a good deal of trepreda tion. 1 tbiuk that another factor could be added to the work of this sssooiatiou. Business men should take more interest in politics. Now is a good time. 'This Is the budding time of year when men s minds turn to thoughts of ollioe. it would not be out of tbe way to talk politics. Tbe poliMoiuu in the past bsda genius for intugue He bnd peculiar qualities for knowing about bis neighbors, lie had nothing else to do. Itistbeten deucy among business men to turn politics over to tbe professional poll ticians and give them tbe manage ment of tbe campaign. Just now there is a wave of teform sweeping over the country a moral reform; a political reform, it Is tbe duty of the business men to pay some atten tion to politic. We are all Interested in good men in office, good policies, Tbiuk of these things and devote some time to politics, ibe grange and the church are into politics end wby not wer" E. Brayford, tbe Rookfnrd mer chant, spoke on tbe text, "Pull To gether." He poiuted out the advant ages of pulling together and aoting as a nnit In good business methods, working tor tbe nest Interests of mer chant and customer alike. "Let us pull together and cut the wires, aud we will accomplish the object we have In view. Most of you know wbat I mean when I say cu'. tbe wires. Let as pull together." 11. F. Davidson said ha was used to attending farmers' banquets, but t business men's banquet waa a new thing in Hood River. He thought tbe Idea of limiting credit was a good thing, although it mibt be tbe means of di if ing lawyers Into politics. He thought the merchants ejuld do uiurb good to themselves and the publ o hen they consider their own good. The banquet rieaerved a high compli ment and it ought to be continued. Much good would come ot getting to gether. F. A. Cram waa iutrodttced by tbe tuastiuabter as oue who was progres sive, optlmiatio and always up to date. Mr. Cram said that it was "re markable that we find here a repretcu tative ot eveiy buninec-s in the com munity. We aie youug and optimis tic We hive people here who are unusual as customers, xney ate more patrlotio than tbe people in other cities and towns ot tlio country. We nare many kssurauces i.f this fuu'. l'be younger el"iueet in btitiiuess here should join lu uiakiug liond Klvt r a oeutral busluesa point. 1 et us take ca e of that busiueM. We tiave a lar-e outlying district, from bteren son to The Dalles and extending south to Mt. Hood and north to Mt. Adams. All this is tributary to Hood Hirer. Every man iu buainess can draw and u.aiutain busiuess to theli advantage. Honest goods cau be sold to bonett men at low prices. Let us get In clote tnuob with ourselves and each other." Mr. Cram tbon read an agreement slgued by practically every business man in tbe city to discontinue tbe Pacitlo States phcue March 1. "1 think is a proposition we should got together on and stick together on. vvbat we want is tbe beet. The uew system is so far superior to the other that it is unworthy to be mentioned In the same breatb. Let us build op the Home phone. We are all inteiest ed. It is of great bouelit to tbe new company to bave all tbo assistance possible." E. U. Uartwig said that tbe toat- master iu introducing Mr. Juvne mid that be repiesentud tho elemeut to oil tbe wheels of busiuess. "The profes sion is (0 be congratulated if that end la attained, there is another phase. the objeut ot the association is to re duce losses, to stop leaks. The ques tion Is bow much we can save. If you sell goods on credit and do not oolleot, those who pay must suiter, it is a good thing to establish a limited oredit and do a cash business as much as possible. The wage eainer should get lu tbe habit of saving a part ot tils wsgB. 1 recall tbe advice given to young men by an eminent man, who sa.i, 'get your name on tbe tax i oil. If you cannot do that, get iu- urRtice; get a wife.' The demaud foi ure. tit is growing lets. Wo have pass ed through the hard times. People should get out of the habit ot living beyond their meuus. lioloie whole sale houses will give you credit they viii investigate your resources and your ability to pay. The nierclimit bus the right to know the Hbilily of his customer to pay wlieu be abks for oredit. Honest men can c.l credit. It we ciin not mako money we will be satisfied to turnisb oil tu mako the wheels go smooth." Dr. W. S. Niohol si.U Uii t be . au predated what it la lo.be in business where the people were ot oue uccoid. One who does a strict business cau sell goods, There is no need to cut prices. The excellent banquet wrs prepared sn.l seived by t h ladies nt the Chris tian ohiitoh, who ted tbe grand inarch as the guosts entered the hnll. Kiieh of the ladles who waited on the table had p. large letter fastened to her waist and after tbe guests were seated they marched to the bead of the ta bles and they spellod "Hood River liusiuess Men." Then tbey luurcbed to the toot of the Utiles mid tbe lot ters spelled "F'ebruary 29, 1908." It was a very pretty maneuver aud was greeted with euthuslustn by the guests. Woman's Club Reception. Every woman of Hood Uiver and Hood River Valley isoordially.iuvited to be present ut a public reception giveu by tbe Woman's Club of iiood Kivor, Tbuisday.

Mrs. (J race Watt Ross, Mrs. Robert Lutke and several othei women ot Portland who are prominent in club woik lu the state will be in attendance and present the vaiue ot club organization to each individual, her borne, town and valley. Light refreshments will be served. Irrigation vs. Frost. The discussion of the ellioacy ol tat pots in tbe orchards during tbe mouth followng tbe development of fruit buds and during which time frotit may yet come to nip tbe fruit, bas elicted a statement fium a lady orohaidlst In the viciuity of this city concerning ber experiment with water snd its results two years ago, when a good many fiuit buds suffered from a lute visit or two by Jack Frot-t, snys Ibe Yakima Republic. J bis woman had onuoeived tbe idea that water in sultioient quantity In tho orchard might destroy tbe chance for tbe late frosts; so sho turned the water into the irrigating ditches coursing through ber trees, except a tew in one corner ot the tiact, which oould not be conveniently renched at that time. She kept tbe ditches well tilled st nlgbt. Tbe result was that In that pmtion of the oiabsrd which she oould not irrigate tbe front killed tbe buds, the trees bearing no fruit last year. That portion ot tbe orchard in which the water bowed at night was wholly uuin jured by the frost. This convinced her that to irrigate the orchard during tbe rjeriod of damage from frost will prevent damage from that cause. It is a cheaper and simpler method than tbe tarpnts or any other Bystciti fo far published. A triiil will oust little, if anything, and will da no harm. Recovered from Smallpox.

Is..- COMMON COUNCIL TO GRADE WEST STATE STREET Propositi. or Putting In Fire Ily drant Discussed and Finally Rejected. After the reading of the minutes C. U. Vsugban waa 'given permission to make repairs to 'bis bouse In accord ance with the fire ordinanoe. A onnimunication wasreceived from the Commercial Club stating that if the city would install an apparatus connecting the exchange with the Are bell, tbey would ring it upon any call trutu a phone in tbe city. They also said tbey would turn a switch to light a ied light to call tbe night watch man, upou request, tf aame were in stalled by tbe city. Tbe Flee trio Light Co. will furnish free power, it is said, for this purpose, and tbe same was referred to the committee of Are and water. A petition was received from the Fli'Ctrlo Light and Water Co., propos ing to Install hydrants In accordance with the recommeudations of tbe iioard of Fire Underwriters, at f3 per month per hydrant, provided a con tract was made for not less than five years. Tbe communication from tbe Hoard of Fire Underwriters was In effect that the present reservoir be augment ed by another with a capaoity of not less than 200,000 gallons, connected wttn tne present one by a six man main; an eight inch main be ran from tho present reservoir entering the city system on Park, near Stat or Oak streets; thut tbe eight inoh niaiu now on Oak bo replaced by a ten inob main ; that all laterals be at least six inch, aud four if circulating. About 28 hydrants ure required. The nre department equipment must con sist of three hose carts, carrying 750 feet ot hose each, with 300 feet of hose in reserve, making 2500 feet in all; one chemical engine; hook and ladder truck and volunteer fire depart ment consisting of three companies of fifteen men each. If these things were complied with the board would reoommeud a reduction of 10 per cent on property covered by this protec tion. Tbe mutter received considerable discussion. All tbe members of tbe council were of the opinion that it wus worthy ot considerable thought. Objection bad been made to tax tbe entire city for lire protection for a i'uiiled district, but it was not clear thut arrangements could be made to tax ouly tbe ilUttkt protected to pay tor tne improvement, it waa shown that the reduction would pay the cost ot i lie improvements, but it would tall largely on the busiuess section. A vote being taken on tbe' proposition It was rejected. U. J. (Jessling petitioned the coun cil for lights to be placed on every corner ot Pino street and the matter ' was referred to tbe health committee. Ordiuuuce No, 113, giving tho Funnels' Irrigating Co. permission to lay water pipes on tbe bill, passed its second leadiug.
