Morse Explains Water Shnrtae
Erroneous rumors were niU,Ht last
week as to the shortage of ih.od Riv
er's water supply. Engii cer Morse
offers the following as the f i. ta in the
case :
"The water supply or the entire city
of Hood River is taken fron, a spring
located near the west bank of Hood
river about five and a half miles south
west of the city. Thin piii'g supplies
slightly over i 100,000 gallon.-. nr day of
24 hours. Measurements i,;u been
taken at periods covering U.e last six
years by different engineer., and all
give approximately the same quantity
of water at all seasons of the year. As
it happens, the last measurement was
taken last Thursday, and the same re
sult was obtained.
"The storage reservoir mi the hill
had been allowed to draw down and in
order to have all the reserve possible
in case of fire on the Fourlli, the usual
pressure in the lower city was cut down
for a few hours Friday morning. This,
I suppose, gave rise to the reports
which were published. We Oush 19
blocks of concrete pavement here at
least twice a week, which would not be
done if there was a shortage of water.
We also had a water fight with fire
hose on the Fourth between rival hose
teams. This would not have been done
if the water was about to give out.
"The water supply here is more than
ample for a city of considerable more
population than is now here."
Decisions in Circuit Court
The session of circuit court, Judge
W. L. Bradshaw presiding, ended here
at noon yesterday with the case of the
State vs. C. O. Oiler, who had been in
dicted on a charge of assualt with dan
gerous weapons. A jury released Oiler
he having pleaded self defense in using
a pair of brass knuckles when attacked
by John Viking, a member of a West
ern Union crew of this city, of which
Oiler was assistant foreman. Alex
Bonaduce.who was indicted on a charge
of assault with dangerous weapons,
having made an attempt to shoot a fel
low Italian recently when they engaged
in an affray in the Upper Valley
pleaded guilty and was assessed a
fine of $100. A. L. Mulvaney was
fined $50, having pleaded guilty to the
charge of giving liquor to girls who
were minors.
A large portion of the time of the
court was taken up with a civil action
brought by Joel Nienie, administrator
of O. Laine, who was killed last Sep
tember when struck by a falling pole
while at work as head feller for the
Stanley-Smith Lumber Co. The jury
assessed damages to the amount of
$4,000.
Dog Barks, Warns of Flames
"Pat," the big, handsome collie of
Mrs R. R. Adams, of Portland, who is
here visiting her sister, Mrs. Arthur
Clarke, was a hero Monday evening.
In some manner a pile of trash in the
loft of the barn back of the Clarke
home on Sherman avenue had caught
fire. The dog gave warning by bark
ing. The city council was in session
and the dog, the house being but a
short distance away, I made bo much
noise that Marshal Carson began an in
vestigation. He was found lunging at
the chain with which he was tied and
gave evidence that his agitation was
caused by something wrong at the
barn, the lire caused no damage.
Walker-Rhini'hart
A very pretty home wedding was sol
emnized Thursday afternoon at 5.30 at

Spray Misapplied, Says Moznette
Orchardists -ere misapplying their
spray for codling moth, according to
G. F. Moznette. "As I go through the
valley," he says, "1 Bee many of the
growers applying their third codling
moth spray. It is too late for the sec
ond spray and entirely too early for
the last spray. This third spray should
not be applied for perhaps three or
four weeks. As soon as the time
comes for its use, we will make proper
announcements through the local
press."'

i Report of Grand Jury
Honorable W. L. Bradshaw, judge of
the above entitled court: We, your
Grand Jury, duly impaneled and sworn,
assumed our duties under the charge
of the court, on Monday, July the tith,
. 1914, proceeding to investigate such
matters as hail been begun in the jus
tice's court where the defendants were
bound over to await the action of this
JU'.V.
We have considered the case of the
State vs. A. L.Mulvaney, of the charge
of giving intoxicating'Iiquor to minors,
and have returned into court in this
instance, a true bill.
Wo have also examined the matter of
the State vs. C. O. Oiler, charged in
the justice's court with assault, being
on with a dangerous weapon, upon one
John Viking, and have also in this in
stance returned into court a true
We have also examined the matter
of the State vs. Alex Honaduce charged
with assault, being on with a danger
ous weapon, upon one Joe DiGrcgorio,
and have also in this instance returned
into this court a true bill.
We have inquired into the care of
the county poor, having the Hon. E. E.
Stanton before us, and find that the in
digents of the county are properly
cared for.
We have also examined the books in
the offices of the county cleik, sheriff
and treasurer, and find them neatly
and accurately kept, so far as we could
see in the length of time allotted us.
We find that the shipments of liquor
into Hood River county in the last
three months are decidedly less than
reported to the preceding grand jury,
there being 254 gallons as compared
with 477 gallons the preceding quar
ter. We also find that the officers
whose duty it is to investigate the
liquor business, have done what they
could to stop the illicit sale.
Having finished our investigations as
far as we are able to, w;e respectfully
request that we be discharged from
further attendance upon the court.

Portland Man Favors Road
Portland, Ore., July 7. 1914.
Editor Glacier: As a property holder
and tax payer in your county, wish to
put in my vote for the $75,000 bond is
sue that is about to be voted on. While
I think my taxes are high enough, 1
should not object to paying a little
more to have this road put through.
That is a most magnificent offer
made by Mr. Benson, and it should not
be allowed to go by default. There
being no road whatever through about
li mlies of your county, it makes it
impossible for anyone to come from
your place by land, and it is too bad to
force them to go by water.
There will be no less than 5,000
automobiles and motorcycles passing
through your county every year, and
they will average no less than $10 a
piece, money left in your county. As
that county is only asked to put up
$75,000 for the road, it is not an unfair
estimate to figure that at least $50, 0K)
a year will be returned to the people of
Hood River valley, to say nothing of
the benefit'your own citizens will have
in coming to the city in their own ve
hicles. I trust you will urge every voter in
the valley to vote for this issue, and
not be so small as to continue to keep
your county buried from public travel.
Sincerely yours,
H. G. Colton.

Importance of Pure Milk
If the public were thoroughly informed of the dangers, among which
tuberculosis is only one nfjmuny.to which it is exposed through the use of
impure, dirty, and infected milk, the demand for milk of approved purity
would rise to the magnitude of a concei ted national movement ami would
sweep all objections ami difficulties out of its way. Inform a man that a
single loaf.omi among many loaves of bread you do not know which is
contaminated with arsenic, strychnine or some other commonly dreaded
poison, and he will go very hungry before be risks eating any loaf of the
lot. He knows what arsenic ami strychnine are and what he must expect
- from their introduction into his sbimacti. Yet he continues to use milk
and dairy products, and permits his family to use them, without first test
ing their purity or insisting that the doubt about purity shall be removed,
notwithstanding that they have repeatedly been shown to contain poisons
fully as objectionable and potent as those above named, such as the germs
of tuberculosis, typhoid fever, scarlet fever, diphtheria, and otherdiseases,
and the poisons that are the cause for the high death rate from abdominal
disease among children who have not passed the milk-drinking period of life

Proceedings of City Council
The council will proceed at once to
improve Railroad street. The jury in
the case of condemnation, which was
appealed from the council proceedings
to the circuit court, Monday afternoon
assessed a valuation of $250 for the lots
over which the right of way will pass.
The matter was left with the street
committee and city engineer with pow
er to act.
A communication was received from
G. R. Castner, who is now in Vernon,
B. C, protesting against payment of
Twelfth street by assessment. He de
clared that the poor condition of the
streets was due to carelessness of the
council and that the improvement
should be paid for by the general fund
as any other repair work.
A letter was received from the treas
urer, L. A. Henderson, who stated that
deficits existed in street improvement
bond funds on account of delinquent
assessments. It was explained that on
account of the illness of City Recorder
Howe second notices to property own
ers had not been issued. Mr. Hender
son also reported a $2800 deficiency in
the special road fund, while the general
fund was $2500.
Miss Delia Northey, for the library
board, asked the city for an appropria
tion of $120 for the care of the library
lawn. Her communication was tabled.
A communication was received from
the Paictic Coast Association of Fire
Chiefs, asking that the city send their
chief, W. B. McGnire, to the annual
convention at Victoria, B. C, on Sep

Ricketts Have House Party
At Firholme, in the Upper Valley,
Mr. and Mrs. S. T. Ricketts are just
now entertaining a happy house party,
Mrs. and Miss Ball, of San Jose,
mother and sister of Mrs. Rickets,
and Mrs. E. R. Stevens, of Santa Bar
bara, Calif. The grove often rings
with merry laughter, and the voices of
children add sweetness to the sound.
To My Friends in the Grove
The Father who builded this grove of
tall pines,
Cast the livea of my friends along
pleasant lines.
The acres of soil that grows everything
good,
And guarding it all, that monarch,
Mount Hood
Mount Hood in its grandeur, how Bafe-
ly it hides
All the deeds of the past 'neath its
snow crusted sides.
Old Sol plays it tricks though, and
once in a while
The dignified mountain almost seems
to smile.
When the lust of Sol's rays paint it
crimson and gold,
Its a little more friendly, a little less
bold ;
Then it stands in its beauty so solemn
ly white.
While the firs and the pines eroon a
loving good night. '
The home in the grove has this added
joy:
Two of heaven's priceless treasures a
girl and a boy
Have been loaned to my friends to
bring gladnesB and cheer.
The puzzle of puzzles is, which is most
dear:
The boy with his pranks and his wide
open love.
Or the girl with her eyes like the blue
sky above.
Her hair like spun gold, her teeth so
like pearl.
The daintiest, sweetest, darlingtBt
girl.
I pray God to spare them, this father
and mother,
And Donald and Ruth, for years, to
each other.
And send them blessings, the choic
est, we pray ;
Send health and send wealth to the
end of the way.
May their ilves be as sweet as the pine
in the wood
And their souls be as white as the
snows on Mount Hood.
Mary E. Sevens.
