January J5, at 1.30 p. m., our party
from Oak Grove) achool met at the
office of the Apple Grower Associa
tion, Cascade avenue. Here we were
directed to go to the Davidson ware
house On our arrival at that building
Mr. Caatner, the superintendent of the
warehouse, took charge of the party on
our observation.
The Association own three ware
house. The Davidson and Union ware
houses arc joined in one brick building
and are located by the O.-W. R. & N.
railroad track. The National ware
house is by the Mount Hood railroad in
the eastern part of Hood (.River. Each
of these warehouse ha a receiving
room where the fruit from the ranch
ers is received. At the receiving room
the apples are checked and sorted a to
grade and four different sixes. The
apple brought in or shipped out by the
Association are so recoruea mat every
night they know the exact number of
boxes in storage.
Different varieties of apple are re
ceived at each of the warehoue. Spit-
lenburgs and Newtown are received
at the Union warehouse. The mixed
varieties at the Davidson warehouse
and Spitzenburgs and Newtown are
also received at the National ware
house. Sixty-three varieties of apples
were handled by the Association last
ve": , .
All the apple storea oy me associa
tion are insured for the time they are
ketit in Btoraee. firms from nearby
cities, like Portland, buy small lots of
apple from the Association and Keep
them in storage nere. xor use in me
snrincr.
Alter this explanation. Mr. caetner
took us to one of the storage rooms,
The walls and floor of thia room.were
insulated with six inches of cinders.
four inches cork and two inches of con
crete. The temperature of thia room
was 33 deerees and was kept at that
degree by two sets of ammonia gas
nines, which ran along the ceiling.
The other storage rooms in Davidson
huildine. which we visited, were the
same kind except that different kinds
nf nnnles were stored there.
Then we were taken to the ice plant
in Davidson building. The great tank
in which the ice is made has a capacity
of 28 tons. At first a brine is made
which takes about ten tons of salt.
This brine is placed at the bottom of
the large tank. Smaller rectangular
can having a capacity of 400 pounds
are filled with water and set in this
brine. Ammonia pipes run between
the cans which makes the water freeze.
The freezing of this ice is done at about
8 degrees above zero. At intervals the
ice is drawn out by compressed air
The cans are emptied by turning them
upside down and pouring a little water
over them.
A double action engine is in the same
room as the ice plant. The engine
compresses the ammonia into the pipes
in the storerooms and ice plant, where
it is chanced into ammonia gas. The
eneine compresses the ammonia into
the nines and then sucks it back again
Next we were shown the ice storage
room. Both the can and plate ice are
stored here. The plate ice has no bet
ter quality than the can ice, but people
call for it because it is clear. The
tcmneratura ot this room was 28 de
crees.
Cans of arsenate of lead were stored
in one of the storerooms. We were told
that if arsenate of lead froze it would
be of no uee any more.
We then passed into the Union ware
house, where men were loading two
box cars of extra fancy Newtowns for
New York and London. The car first
had to be lined with straw and paper
to keep the apples from freezing dur
ing the cold weather. The labels are
put on the boxes after they are placed
in the cars.
We went into all the storage rooms
in the Union building, which were the
same as those in Dsvidson building ex
cept for a system of air pipes to ventil
ate the rooms.
A nicht watchman is employed by
the Association, who makes the rounds
of the storage rooms and other stations
everv two hours during the night, in
each room is a numbered key which the
watchman inserts into the clock he car
s. This marks on a dial like that ot
clock at what time he has been at
that certain place.
Mr. Castner then showed us tne en
gine in the Union warehouse. It was
lareer than the one in the Davidson
warehouse. The large belt lor tne en
cine cost $300.
The condenser room wnere tne am
moma gas is changed paca to nquia
form, is on the roof of the building.
Water trickles over the pipe in his
room, chaneine the gas to liquid, this
was the last of our observation of the
warehouses of the Apple Growers Asso
ciation.
The Hood River IProduce Exchange
is located in the same building as the
Union and Davidson warehouses of the
Apple Growers Association. Our party
entered the office of the firm, from
where the man in charge took us to the
store room.
Many different kinds of fruits, veg
etables and other small products were
there. Among the things shown us
were sweet potatoes and Irish. potatoes,
celery, turnips, oranges, bananas, lem
ons, pigs, honey, cabbage and cocoa-nuts.
Products from all nearby state are
handled there and sold to the merchant
of Hood River mainly.

though no other damage resulted than
the breaking of a tug-and one of the

Already more than 300 heads of
families have made applications for
farms. Most of these families are
without sufficient funds to purchase a
tract of land, neither have they suffi
cient funds to rent and equip and stock
a place. Ninety per cent of them have
had farm experience and most of them
have made the mistakeof leaving the
farm where they were making good
living and coming into the city, ex
pecting to better themselves by the
move. This has proven to be a great
mistake, and they are now willing to
go back upon the land and to make
good if an opportunity is extended to
them. There are a great many land
owners in the vicinity of Hood River
who should be able to place one of
these families upon a small tract and
give them a email amount of assistance
in making a start. This can be done
either upon a lease upon easy terms
or upon some other plan. Such a move
ment will result in developing the land.
and it will transfer a family which is
now dependent to be self supporting.
and it will also increasejthe number of
producers in your neighborhood and
tend to make conditions better for
everyone.
These families are anxiously await
