APPLES WILL BE
SENT TO CHICAGO
BEST CARLOAD TO BE SHOWN
Hood Kiver Will Hdtiplay B Carload oi
Apples at Land and lrrltra
tion Congress.
A carload of the best ilood Kiver
apples will be sent east tn Cbioago tor
the big national Land cv irrigation
Ccngreee whiob will be held there for
two weeks from November 22 to Dec
ember 4. i'his lull car of 040 boxee
will be the largest exhibit which baa
ever been teut trom Hood Klver for
display ;at any eastern show. This
meeting will be held in the big Col
llBeum in Cbbiongo and it will be a
rentable exposition. In the conrea
ot the two weeka ovre a million peo
ple from all parts of the oouutiy who
are interested in land development,
especially under Irrigation, are ex
pected to attend t he congress and look
at the displays which will ehow the
possibilities ot some of the western
country.
Hood Kiver Is most fortunate to be
able to eeoure space in wbloh to make
this display, as there is not enough
loom to supply the demand, altbough
the building is large enough to bold
a thiee ring oiroue. Ibe floor space
whioh has been allotted to the Hood
Kiver apple display cost $I80U.
ihe applea whlon are to be shown
In Cbioago will be selected from the
many exhibits which will be made at
the looal fair tnie week. Tbia display
whioh will be of tie best apples wbiob
ilood Kiver oeu produce will re
present an out lay of over K000 when
the expenses o display, tacking,
freight, personal aupei vision, floor
space eto., are taken Into account.
The Apple (J rowers Union will look
after tbe shipping ot the oar and when
tbe exhibition is over the apples will
be resblpped to Ste'nhardt & Kelly In
New Voik as a part ot their purchase
from this valley. Tbe floor spaoe at
tbe congress has teen donated and
Other incidental expense will be
borne by the looal Commercial olnb
and interested persons.
Nothing will be left undone to
make It the best exhibit ot apples
whiob has ever been put on any
place. Not only will it be the pur
pose of tbe exhibit to ehow the con
sumers ot apple who will be there from
all over tbe middle west, that Hood
Kiver produot is the best in the world
but It will seek to show men who are
looking tor good inveetmenls that no
better opportunities oan be found for
making money than in tbe develop
mentot fruit lands in thi valley.
Joseph A. Wilson, who so success
fully managed the Hood Kiver exhib
it at the A-Y-P exposoition. wilt go
ou to Chicago witb tho exhibit and
he wilt be accompanied by Bam Camp
bell, it is also probable that F. W.
Cutler will go back to asslat in mak
ing the display. Mr. Cutler was form
erly a resident of Cbioago. it will
take a great deal of work to put this
display on in the proper fashion and
tbe men who are to be in oharge have
a number ot new aud good ideaa
whioh they will work out for tbo
Chicago exhibit.
Arrangements have also been mude
for Hood Klver to place good-sized
exhibits at tbe oomiug apple sbowe
in Spokane aud Council Kinds. Ibe
looal apple show this week gives tbe
growers ot the valley an excellent op
portunity to get together and save out
tbelr best apples and use them in
making these displays. In tbe aotivity
of making a good showing at tbeee
exltiltlous at a distance,tbe looal 'aire
should not be forgotten. A good ex
hibit should be arranged for the State
Horticultural society meeting to he
held in Portland this winter. There
Is an unquestloued advantage In mak
ing a good abowing at every exhibi
tion liood Kiver oan reaoh, both far
and neat. The eastern exhibits are
seen by many more people but a much
larger proportion ot the visitors at a
western show oan find It convenient to
come und look over tbe valley with a
view to helping In it development.
EXPRESS DELIVERY
TO BE ASKED FOR
At the meetiug ot the Merchants'
Association in the Commeroial olnb
rocnis lueBday evening the matter of
the delivery of express packages came
up for consideration and it was de
cided to bring the matter to tbe at
tention of tbe express company and
ask for a delivery service in this city.
Tbo gaining of this will be a great
oouveutenoe to all pereone who receive
express matter here and the local
ugent stated that he believed tbe com
pany would be willing to render tbe
better service. Dick McDonald and
(leorge Thomson were appointed to
take tbe question up witb the express
oompauy and one dally delivery will
be asked for. They will probutly
suggest that tbe delivery be made In
the morning after tbe arrival ol tbe
tiaiua from tbe east whiob will mean
quick delivery of the puokagea coming
fiom Portland In the evening aud of
most of the eastern matter.
The movement whioh the association
started, to build a sidewalk to tbe
boat landing, has been progressing
and the work of putting in tbe walk is
already under way. A committee
consisting of J. M.Wond and O. C.
Dean was appointed to have charge of
tbe circulation of a subscription to
raise money to pay for tbe walk.
They are meeting with much encour
agement und it is thought that a lib
eral response will make it easy to
raise the ooBt of tbe walk.
