COWS AND FARMERS
"I am a farmer from the bottom of
my feet to the top of my head," de
dared Dr. Withycombe, when ho ad
dressed the Upper Valley ranchers.
And the director of the Oregon Ari-
eultural College snoke the words in
such a manner that they rang true,
Hood River people ire talking cows.
They are planning the inauguration of
a cow club. They must become real
farmers, if they are doing to make the
success that they dream of, out of
cows. The Hood Hiver valley has not
had enough farmers. This is a true
statement of fact and not meant as a
criticism. A large percentage of the
local country residents have come from
the cities of the country, comparatively
recently. They could not have Leen
farmers, if they had so desired. But
the life in the country is working a
metamorphosis, and sensible, educated
farmers are springing up in all parts
of the district.
Lured by the stories of rich returns,
every fruit district up and down the
Pacific coast has its men and women
who have come to the country and
have had to go through a siege of dis
appointment. They have gone on their
places with an ideal system of agricul
ture in mind, the ideal fruit ruining.
Perhaps, they paid a small portion
down on their places, and yet this
small portion was all the money they
had in the world. They expected to
pay the balance from the returns of
the land, the fruit crops. Perphaps
there was a reverse due to weather
conditions or to markets. With all his
eggs broken in the one basket, the
family in such a position naturally felt
a keen disappointment, but those of
sturdier natures, who are strentghened
by diversity, saw the necessity of
turning real farmers, and the adverse
circumstances, while thought to have
been an ill wind, blew them good.
And here in our own valley, orchard
ists have come to realize the necessity
of a limited adversity of agriculture.
You may still find some of the ideal
ists. All is well, if they have the
price to say, "1 don't want to bother
with a cow." If they haven't, they
had best seek a clerkship or some such
position and thvis find their level.
AND THE SCENERY
"There's a mililon dollars' worth of
scenery," said Dr. Withycombe week
before last pointing to the Hood River
gorge, as the car in which he was
riding tapped tha East Side grade. He
changed his mind, when the automobile
rounded that eminence just beyond the
Reed homo and concluded: "No, it's
worth more than that j you cant' esti
mate it."
Nor can one tell the worth to us of
our natural wonders, the property of
all of us; be he ranch hand or millionaire-even
though we had the latter
here in our democratic paradise. The
scale of the value shifts with the indi
vidual as his mood shifts. At times
the mountain peaks may aid him in
reaching an exalted frame of mind be
yond the descriptive powers of his own
utterance,' although again he may see
without feeling. And yet it is a pecul
iarly constructed piece of humanity
that can ever stop and view this heart
of the Casades without some thought
of its infinite splendor.
It is ours to make the most of. We
raise apples and the world has
awarded thorn palms for their merit.
Hut we can become known to tho four
corners of the globe, habited with men
and women, all of whom are filled with
the wanderlust, for these wonder spots
of a world. Huild roads and make
them accessible and tourists will come.
HELP CLEAN IP
Help tho women clean up the city.
The papers have had much to say about
how Hood River is primping mid clean
ing for tho coming of the delegates to
the Woman's club convention. Let the
talk turn to action. The council has
ordered the property of nonresident to
be put in proper condition, at the ex
pense of the property itself, if these
owners do not follow the advice of
notifications.
With a little concerted effort the
town can be put into a state of cleanli
ness. In fact, it ought to be kept this
way all the while, although, of course,
we should make extra efforts for our
fair visitors.
Vice president of the Northwest
Fruit Exchange, E. H. Shcpard, editor
of Better Fruit, and A. P. Bateham, in
a recent social conference, gave us of
their wisdom in regard to balky horses.
Mr. Shepard has found thut he can
persuade his family animal to resume
his trot by feeding him a few extra
fancy Spitzenburgs that are carried
along in a basket for that purpose.
Mr. Bateham had to resort to the or
deal of a veritable bonfire. Why not
put an extension on the shafts of the
vehicle and suspend a foot from the
horse's nose a basket of big apples?
But then the Humane Society would
get us sure.
And apples make the auto go, too;
for they buy the orchardist's gasoline.
It is admitted that the dam of the
Pacific Power Light Co. across the
Hood rivet near the city obstructs the
passage of salmon. This stream, be
cause of its fishing, is one of the coun
ty's biggest assets, leaving aside the
orchards; for it draws tourists here.
The state has set aside the stream as a
spawning stream. If the big fish can
not reach the waters above the dam,
this action is needless. The request of
the Fish and Game Commission seems
reasonable and tbe officials of the pow
er and light company should cooperate
with them in an effort toward making
the most of the river for those who
love the sport of fishing.
The experiences of the past summer,
when they have been tortured by heat,
when their wells have been drying up
and their crops have been parcnin
have caused the middle westerners
turn their eyes toward a land of prom
ise. where they may come and live
neace and comfort and cool their bli
tered feet, and Secretary Ravlin, of
the Commercial club, says that scores
of inquiries are coming in, in wbicb
the prospective newcomers are asking
about the local climate and agricul
tural opportunities.
The conference at Chanticleer Mon
day afternoon will result in a closer
harmony between the road enthusiasts
of Hood River and Multnomah county.
Each will understand the purposes of
the other and they can co-operate
toward final-ends with a better result.
Every Hood River citizen should be
come a booster for the Portland-Hood
River highway. For it will be but the
beginnng of the building of good roads
all through the mountainous districts
about the base of Mount Hood.
Expressions and arguments herald on
every hand the recent Round Up vis
itor. "Let 'Er Buckl" takes the place
of "I should worry 1" and every young
ster who visited the Round Up spent
even his last cent to buy an appropriate
sombrero. More power to the Pendle
tonians; they are making a national
stir each year with their reproduction
of the strenuous days of yesterday, and
are recalling some of us from modern
lethargy.
Mrs. S. C. Mcintosh, the Upper Val
ley octogenarian, who homesteaded 160
acres of land at the age of 80 years,
observing faithfully the laws of the
land office and proving up on her prop
erty at the age of 85 years, is the old
est homesteader in the state. The na
tion is proud of men and women of
such pluck and honesty as she has dis
played.
Hurrah for the Cherrians and hurrah
for their spirit I They take an oppor
tunity not only to boost Salem, but the
entire state and every city they visited
on their recent junketing trip. They
were there with the goods, Mr. Cradle
baugh. Rubber Stamp Inks and Pads at this
office, also stamps made to order.
CITY PREPARES FOR
COMING OF WOMEN
Hood River town is beginning to
primp, making ready for the hundred
or more guests, delegates of the Fed
erated Woman's clubs of the state, who
will arrive here on October 6 to attend
the annual convention of the organiza
tion. The city council is cooperating
with the civic committee of the club of
local women, and every effort will be
made to have the town spotless while
the visitors are here. The city mar
shal has been authorized to secure ad
ditional aid in cleaning the streets, and
to notify nonresident property owners
that their places must be put in readi
ness. One of the features of the en
tertainment of the visiting women will
be a ride over the valley. On Thurs
day afternoon, October 9, a large num
ber of automobiles will convey them
through the orchards that they may
see the apples being harvested.
The meetings, except the reception,
will be open to the public. The recep
tion will be open to the delegates, club
members, their hubsands and invited
guests. "Twelve clubs have affiliated
with the State Federation in the past
year," says Mrs. Chus. H. Castner,
president of the local club, "and we
are expecting the largest attendance at
this convention that we have, ever
had." Out-of-town guests, though not
delegates, will be welcome to the re
ception. The program for the convention fol

We, the undersigned, are responsible

it fully ample for all the needs re
quired by the traffic over that road at
present or in the life of a timber
bridge as generally considered by en
gineers. O. 11. Rhoades was appointed
by the court on account of bis wide ex
perience in bridge construction in the
northwest, having worked on all the
bridges of the O.-W. R. & N. from
Portland to Pendleton, including all
branch lines; also having constructed
bridges over nearly all streams of any
consequence in Oregon, as well as su
perintending construction of several
bridges in our county.

Supt., O. H. Rhoades.
Blowout Causes Panic
The blowout of a tire, an extra,
ready in the rack for an accident of
the road, on the automobile of Frank

panic in the bookstore of James W.
I'ifer, in front of which the car was
standing. A number of youngfjadies
and men were in the store preparing
to start on a picnic, when the tire ex
ploded. The air for a moment was
rent with shrieks and exclamations. I

over.
GROWERS OF VALLEY
ASKED TO COOPERATE
The proposition of the growers'of
Hood River valley, cooperating with
the Hood River Apple vinegar Com
pany, to enable them to enlarge their
present industry, and to add whatevr
tines of manufacturing that would be
advisable to take care of the crops of
the valley, such as an evaporator, can
nery, etc., has been worked out on an
easy payment proposition.
Tbe grower taking one share of stock
(par value $10) for each acre of bear
ing orchard, giving two notes for the
same, bearing eight per cent interest,
the first note to mature March 1. 1914,
and the second note to mature March 1,
1915. These notes are payable in cull
apples or cash, at grower's option.
The stock will be issued and bear the
same date as the date of the notes, and
the holder will participate in whatever
dividends that may accrue on his stock.
The stock will be held as collateral for
the notes and the cull apples credited
on the same, the hrst of each month.
Now, Mr. Grower, we ask you for
your own benefit, as well as for the
good of the valley, to give this matter
your careful consideration. We are
not here as promoters, but have been
with you for the past rive years, in
vested our money in the present plant,
and demonstrated to you who we are.
what we are., and what can be done
along these fines, with proper manage'
meut and salesmanship.
We are not asking any bonus, or
recompense, for what we have done
and the business we have built up. We
simply ask you to join us and to enable
us to keep pace with the increase in
production of your valley.
Our plan is to make this plant as
near cooperative as possible, to enable
you to get the highest possible price
for your products. The proposition
outlined above has been approved, and
notes signed up for over 60 per cent of
the bearing acreage oi the valley.
Bring in your cull apples and, when
you have an opportunity, visit the fac
tory and we feel confident you will be
impressed with the progress we haTe
been making, and will let us have your
support. very truly yours,
Hood River Apple Vinegar Co.,
By C. J. Calkins, Pres.
Christian Church
The services at the Christian chruch
next Sunday will be as usual. Sunday
school and at 9:45, and preaching, with
communion, following at 11 o clcok.
This will be the farewell sermon bv
the pastor, he having accepted a posi
tion in one of the southern cities,
where he and his wife will go some
time next week. All are invited to this
service.
The evening services by the Endeav
or promises to be the biggest thing
yet. There were 73 present last Sun
day night, and we had a splendid ser
vice, and we confidently hope that next
Sunday we can outdo the services of
last Sunday. The pastor will deliver a
sermon lecture at 7:30 and the entire
public are invited. The public farewell
will follow.
Rodenhiser May Have Gone to Alaska
W. H. Rodenhiser, the Upper Valley
merchant, who so mysteriously disap
peared the first of the month, may
have gone to San Francisco, where he
took passage for Alaska, according to
some of the Upper Valley citizens. He
had mining claims there.
Hunting parties have returned from
the mountains, having found no trace
of the missing man, and it is now be
lieved that he was never lost but left
the community, going into the Willam
ette valley via Lost Lake and the head
waters of the Sandy river.
Creditors of the mising man have
brought suit to recover for moneys
owed them, and his merchandise has
been placed in the hands of R. L. Sa
il in, of Portland.
Burning Season Soon Closes
On October 1 the burning season will
close. So far this year there have been
no fires in the county, and L. R.Woods,
fire warden, of Odell, feels .gratified
that no damage has resulted from fires.
He warns all to be very careful for the
remainder of the season, so that the
year's record maj be kept perfect.
There has been a good deal of burning
withont permits raccording to Mr.
Woods. All desiring permits should
call the warden, telephone, Odell 289.
Quarters Secured for Nurses
The old Davidson home on Oak street
just opposite the hospital, has been se
cured by the Cottage Hospital Associa
tion and will hereafter be occupied by
the nurses of the institution. It will
be known as the Hood River Hospital
nurses home. Conveniently located
to the hospital, the residence makes an
excellent location or the nusres.

Pajaro Crop Estimates
The eonsesus of opinion among apple
growers in'the Pajaro valley inclines
to the belief that shipments this season
will aggregate not less than 1000 car
loads. A few of the more optimistic
shippers and packers place the output
at 1500 ears. The most commonly ac
cepted estimate is that there will be
250 carloads of Bellefleurs and 300 cars
of Newtowns with 450 cars of mixed
varieties.
The valley in general seems to have
suffered more heavily from the frost
and other elements than was at first
supposed, but the Corraliios section
will no doubt have a fair crop, Corral
itoa fruit being the best in the valley
so far.
Watsonville is not the only apple
growing community that has suffered
from the weather this season, for re
ports heard from all over the country
are about the same. Most of these re
ports state that the apple crops in all
sections have been hard hit this year
and there are few places where there
will be a full crop. Already a few
Skinner Seedlings and Gravensteins
have been shipped out, but they are
going slowly at the best.
The community this year will not see
the large influx of "apple tramps"
that are a feature of every season
there. These "tramps" have heard
the reports from far and near of the
situation there this year, and they
have departed for other climes.
A few of the faithful are coming in
to the city every day, but they are but
small in number when compared with
the army that has visited this section
every year heretofore.

The coffer dam that has been con
structed across the mouth of the Hood
river diverting the water from the new
course to the old bed, which leads off
into the Columbia in a down stream
course has been completed. The work
was done by the State Game and Fish
Commission, in order that salmon
might enter the Hood river, which has
been declared a spawningjstream and
in which net fishing has been prohib
ited. The new dam is a solid, well
built structure, and as soon as the
large mass of willows that has been
thrown in above the pilings and rocks
begins to collect sand and sediment,
the water will be turned entirely into
the old channel.
The change in the channel of the
river will be beneficial to the city ; for
it will keep the outfall of the sewer
flushed and clean. The council contrib
uted to the extent of $300 toward the
work.
Local sportsmen have been enjoying
the recent run of dog salmon. Several
big fellows were caught in the Hood
river last week. Many have enjoyed
the sport of watching the big fish try
to make their way through the shallow
water up the channel of the stream
from which the water has been divert
ed by the recently completed coffer
dam. Just below this dam is a deep
pool, and last Thursday and Friday af
ternoons about a score of the dog
salmon, which looked as though they
might weigh' as much as 50 pounds a
piece were churning the water there
like a drove of pigs. Some of them
would jump two feet out of the water
and dash spray for 20 feet. Jack
Dukes and some other boys caught one
of the big fish by the tail, when he had
come out in a shallow place at the
edge of the dam. But he was too
much for them and escaped into the
deep water.
Mr. and Mrs. D. A. Turner caught a
number of sjlmon trout on the lower
river near the city last week.
Local hunters are beginning to take
advantage of the open season for duck.
The Columbia sloughs are the haunts
of big fat teal at this time of the year.
Jugde Derby spent an hour on the
sloughs early last Thursday morning
and returned home with five teal.
L. J. Butterfield.of the Glacier office,
spent Sunday on the sloughs north of
the city. Mr. Buttrefield, who is an
enthusiastic hunter, was out after jack
snipe. While sitting on a log watching
for these birds, a flock of big mallards
flew over him, and he brought down
three of them. He also brought home
four jacksnipe.
Five automobile loads of city and
valley people spent Sunday hunting in
the Fir district. Those of the party
were: Mr. and Mrs. W. E. King, Mr.
and Mrs. B. E. Duncan and little
daughter, Dorothy, Mr. and Mrs. C. N.
Ravlin, Mr. andMrs. J. H. Heilbron
ner, Mr. and Mrs. N.W. Bone, Mr. and
Mrs. Arthur Clarke, Mr. and Mrs.
Truman Butler, Miss Wastie and Miss
Bess McRea. The latter is here from
Portland visiting friends.
Hubbard Taylor, who went grouse
hunting Sunday, killed a rattlesnake.
Judge Derby and Fred E. Newby
spent Sunday back of Mitchell's Point
hunting grouse. However, they were
caught in a rainstorm and returned
home with nothing more than fisher
man's luck.
