(From McMinnvillc Telephone-Register.)
Burns Jones and family and Mrs. W.
K. Shay, all of Hood Kiver, stopped
over night at the residence of W. S.
Boorman for a visit with their former
neighbor, and proceeded next morning
by auto to the Tillamook beaches. Mr.
Jones had not visited this section be
fore, and expressed, himself with the
beauty of the country and the apparent
possibilities for apple culture, in which
he is engaged at Hood River. Speaking
of the appearance of growing orchards
here, he said he coulld see no material
difference between this section and
Hood Kiver, but like all Hood River
growers he expressed a mental reserva
tion as to the quality. Hood River
people are slow to admit equal quality
in fruit grown elsewere with that of
their own, and anyone who has seen
their displays at apple shows must ad
mit that their pride is justifiable, as
nowhere in Oregon is the growth and
marketing of apples so scientifically
conducted as at Hood River.

He would be a brave soul who would attempt
to prophecy just what the next few months will
bring forth, if indeed his bravery did not carry
him into the class that rushes in where angela
fear to tread.
One who is optimistic, however, does not
need to look in vain for bright spots and in order
to get a broad comprehensive view of the entire
situtation, a number of things should be con
sidered. It is true that nothing resembling present
conditions has existed since the Napoleonic wars
and that the Nations of Europe are seemingly
doing their utmost to undo the work of four gen
erations; but even so, our own position is not
without hope.
In today's news dispatches, the 14th, Secre
tary of Agriculture Houston is quoted to the ef
fect that European channels of trade cannot
long remain closed against our food products and
there is every indication that the larger nations
will speedily arrange to insure safe delivery of
our cargoes.
All the news is of course only of relative im
portance, but it is a fact that if the horrors of
war were not uppermost in our minds, the great
newspapers of the country would be full of front
page articles on our returning prosperity.
The recent railroad rate decision, the enor
mous crops throughout the entire country, the
opening of the Panama Canal, the culmination
of the new currency legislation by the final or
ganization of the federal reserve board and the
elimination of the Mexican menace for the pres
ent would furnish material for many columns of
right good reading matter.
The prompt action of Congress in providing
for $900,000,000 of additional currency in case
of emergency was a proper step to safeguard
our interests; and all things considered, we are
in a splendid form to cope with whatever the
immediate future may have in store for us.
