Live and Dead Storage Telephone 176-L LOCATION AT CORNER OF FIGHTH AND CASCADE FOLLOW HOOD RIVER WAY, IS ADVICE (From the Corvallis Dailt Gazette' Times) Kenton county has a wonderful fu- ure ahead of it if the landowners and fruit growers of this section will but get out and learn how things are done elsewhere. Kenton couny has much i tine sml and a climate unquestionably aunrrior for the production or Iruit. but what we need here is inspiration to plant more and to care for what we plant in exactly the proper way. We need new methods, and with nptodate methods in the past we would now be far ahead of turne sections that have ere at reputations and are rolling in wealth. So snjs Grocer E. D. Horning, who has just returned from a trip to Hood Kiver. Mr. Horning spent two or three days there with his brother-ia law. C. D. Thompson, and had oppor tunity to travel over much of that fine valley. What he saw was a revelation tu him, and he returns enthusiastic over the possibilities here. He wants others to tto and see and then come back here and make lienton the para dise it should he. "While we have wonderful advant ages and much of which we may very rightly be proud, fays Mr. Ilurriig, 'the Hood Kiver valley is a veritable garden spot, and the great garden looks like it was cared for by a land scape artist. As far as one can see there is nothing but orchard, and or chard in perfect condition. There is order and cleanliness, the weed is scarcely known, the ground is in per fect condition and each tree is more beautiful than the other in its perfec tion. "And this wonderful development Is not conhned to any small section, con tinued Mr. Horning. "It's the entire valley, and the orchards are climbing farther and farther up the hillsides. The surprising thing to me is that so much has been done in so little time. Ten years ago, Hood Kiver was scarcely on the map for fruit. Today the world knows of Hood Kiver fruit. Nine years ago my brother-in-law's twenty acres was in timber and heavy brush. This year he will have 2,000 boxes of beautiful fruit, and he says this is only about three-quarters of a crop. The woik of thinning fruit in the Hood Kiver orchards furnishes em ployment to a large number of people, and from the-beginning of the year to the end the orchards and fruit are cared for in such a way that the pay roll for help is always a large one. Benton county could do as much if it would; it only requires faith and up todate methods. I can now begin to nppieciute more what is being done here to promote commercial fruit cul lur3. Kach move should be encour aged. It me hi, 8 wealth for this sec tion. Mr. Horning says Hood Kiver trees are so laden that the limbs are either ti 'd up or propped. Speaking of Mr. Thompson, he says he is trying an ex periment with dwarf trees. He has 45 on a plot about 40 feet square. The tretB were planted this spring and one produced 17 apples; others bore almost as heavily. All but one apple of each variety has now been picked from the trees. Mr. Horning enjoyed his visit immensely. Fins, Furs, and Feathers. For several weeks past several big grey rats have been Bojourmng in the pity. They are large, pompous fellows and have ways about them like those of Hull Moose politicians. The old house cats of a number of homes in town have met the visitors and lost fierce combats. However, one of the rodents, entering the kitchen of a home last week Dy means of a hole beside the pipe of the heating plant leading up from the basement, ate so much that he was unable to make his exit and paid the penalty of death for his robbery. In the early morning one of the chil dren of the family was the first to dis corver the rat as he ran from behind a kitchen cabinet into a corner behind i larder. "Oh, papa." the little fel ow cried, "come quick. There's a sheep in the kitchen." The father strolled into the kitchen rubbing his eyes, thinking the youngster was mak ing him the victim of some joke. He was led to the corner and as the rHt made a dash for the open door way, he seized a piece of stove wood and the Golden Howl of the visiting rodent was broken. William Stewart, who tried for big fellows in the West Fork Sunday, declares that the streams are pretty well cleared of the larger tish. "They are all gone," he says, "but 1 didn't get them." Mr. Steart caught lliree Sunday. C. A. Cass spent Sunday on the East rorit. ne says mere are out lew lish in that fork of the river. Another shipment of trout arrived from Game Warden Finley Tuesday. The minnows were taken immediately to the tributary streams of the main Hood river and released. This allot ment contained about 200,000 tish. Game Warden Finelv waa hero Mnn. day on his way to Cloud Cap Inn. He was accompanied Dy J. fierce, an or nithologist from Massachussetta. Mr. Finley says that he will set aside a number of Silverside trout for distribu tion in Lost Lake, if some means of geting them there is provided. Secre tary Scott says he will find a way to have the tish transported. Mr. Finley also declared that he had a number of China pheasants to be turned loose in Hood Kiver county. These will be secured by private indi viduals through the Commercial club Those releasing the pheasants on their farms must allow them to be made gHme reserves until h15, when it will be lawful to shoot pheasants. Chas Hall, P. S. Davidson and a number of other Hood Kiver citizens have already applied for pheasants. COOPER MORRIS AIDS PAROLED.

Just Little Stones A number of Hood Rivre citizens are fond of a good story, land little bits of humorous incidents are often related that are wortj remembering. The fol lowing two lave been heard during the past weey Not long ago two Irish laborers shuffled otf this mortal coil and pro ceeded to the infinite realms of eternity. One of then had been a good man and the doors entering the golden .streets were opened to him by St. Peter. The other was welcomed into the midst of hell by Satin. After a month's sojourn at the places of their journeys' ends, the following telephone it is under stood they have installed the auto manual system between the upper and lower regions conversation between them was overheard by the Recording Angel : , Mike (in Heaven) Hillo, Pat, it sounds good to hear ye. How're ye enjiyin ve self? Phat ye doin? Pat (in Hell) An the devil a bite if it ain't Mike. Yes, I'm havin a grand time. I sphind about two hours a day shovelin coal an ait around the rist of the time smokin me pipe and swapin lies with the byes. An ye're in hivin ye say ! I suppose ye're ejiyin ivry luxury of the golden strates. Mike-Psst, Pat, I have to worruk 22 hours out of the 24 up here, swapin the golden strates. Min are viry scarce up here. An ancient darky, who had moved to New York desired that one of the ultra fashionable churches adimt him on a letter Given him bv his country congregation. The fastidious minister was opposed to taking the old white haired fellow, but not desiring to olfend him, ndviaed him to pray earn estly to the Lord and ask his opinion about the matter. The old man failed to 'return and the minister waa relieved of a burden. In about two weeks he saw the old fel low. To satisfy his curiosity he asked: "Well, yon don't seem to desire affilia tion with our church any longer?" "No, sah," was the replv, "When I axed de I.awj about it," he aaid,"Now Jaspan Johnain, if you gets in dat church, you'll be doin' mohn I been able to do fob. de past ten yeahs.'
