Phone 4111 NEAR BY SCENIC HIGHWAY POINTS 1 1 1 1 1 1 ii 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 mi 1 1 1 1 1 Between Benson Point and the citv of Hood River are tome of the most beautiful pointi to be aeen along the Columbia highway between Hood Kiver and Portland. Benson Point, itself, it a boulder-made promontory juttin from the Columbia canyon just at the top of Ruthton bill. It ia here that some form o testimonial to S. Benson is proposed. Already the point is used as a turn around, and man visitors from the city drive this far and atop ror ine excellent view belore returnin to the city. At Benson Point the sightseer ret an unexcelled view of the Columbi river. The Morton place, leased by the Purity Dairy, lies directly beneath, the rowa oi growing crops and meadows, the willow skirted sloughs of the Co lumbia and the green water of the pools, the tarns and nouses of the dairy farm, all form a pleasing picture viewed from this eyrie point. The Point, itself, with a wind tossed and battered pine tree at the very verge, and with its sides covered with a deep green moss, seems the product of some giant landscape artist. Just east of Benson Point is the home of W. T. Price-ClifTside. Mr. Price has cleared the canyon top in front of his residence, thus getting the benefit of the view of the river. At the edge oi tne canyon be baa built a little ru tic house, where the weary pedestrian may sit and look at pastoral scenes of the dairy farm or the broad sweep of the majestic river. Just east of Mr Price's place is the home of J. W. Hin richs. In front of Mr. Hinrich's resi dence is a point that for the view offers, both up and down the river, is unsurpassed. Passing on to the east one cornea to the lookout point of the Wau-Guin-Guin tract, the house built there held in place by cables, fur the winter wind, if the house were not anchored, would soon sweep into the river level below, Wau-Guin-Guin, itself, and the falls of Phelps creek there, have been so often described that every one in the county knows of them. Most of the people of the valley have visited the scenic spot, which has been beautified by Robert Rand, its owner. Last of Wau-Guin-Guin is theDeHart place, now in charge of E. J. Conner. The DeHarts have a summer home on the very edge of the perpendicular cliffs of the Columbia. The site of this home cannot be surpassed on the noted Hudson or the Khine. The road leading out to Benson Point is so little used by the people of the county that it is really not appreciated at its full worth. That is, the scenes that it affords the man traveling for pleasure are no appreciated. After the winter's thaw the highway now could not be traveled by any one with very much appreciation. But soon it will become a part of the Columbia 'high way, and bids fair to become one of the most popular stretches in Hood Kiver county.

Masiker Stories Tell of Lost Barber Dick Turpin. the barber who was lately lost for hours out among the hills of Morrow county is not the first one to wander among the canyons in eastern Uregon. as in Carson Masiker s story of the pioneers of the 60s he tells of a Portland barber who was sent out into that country to look after the effects of a man who was murdered while driving a pack train from Can yon City to The Dalles, says the Opti mist oi that city. Mr. Masiker is now a resident of the Odell district. The barber mentioned bad transacted business and started home on horse back with the mail carrier. Sometime between the John Day and Deschutes he stopped to tighten his saddle girth, the mail carrier went on over the hill and the barber couldn't find the trail and wandered for four days bnt did not strike a road. He killed his horse but couldn't cook the meat and could not eat it raw ; he wandered a day afoot. tnen concluded he could eat raw horse and wandered two more days trying to find the horse. Un the seventh day be atruck a trail and found food and shelter. A Personal Statement.

APPLE NOTES 4 1 1 I I 1 1 I 1 1 I I I I I H-l Ml I I I I The Massachusetts State Board of Agriculture. has bad introduced into the legislature a bill providing for a stand ard apple barrel, which will Le of 71X10, cubic inches capacity, less by 56 inches than the national standard barrel. The bill calls for a bushel box to contain 2,350 cubic inches and of. the following inside measurements: 18x111x10) inch es, lhc proposed grading rules call lor fancies, firsts, seconds and unrlass ifieda. Closed packages fur shipment within the state must bear a printed statement designating either a bushel or barrel of standaid site, name and address of owner or shipper at time of packing and variety, class and grade of fruit. If the apples were grown in Mastchusetts it must be shown. The Mate Board of Health sri have au thoritv of enforcing the bill and assess ing punishment for its violation. The "buy a box" slogan has perhaps never reached the cotton stutts of ti e south, but judging from a letur from a resident of a cotton belt town to St. Joseph, Mo., Fruit Grower ami Farmer, the slogan would take, if the consum ers of those districts could uU fruit at reasonably low rates. The writer of the letter mentioned says: 1 nave no doubt that campaigns for the popularization of apples with the consuming pubile will do much good. But remember thia-apples are already mighty popular with us. The areal problem is to get the fruit to ua at a reasonable price. cmI " thousands of little towns in the cotton belt have never been reached with apples in carlots. and 1 am tirmlv convinced that every one of them would take a carload or two or fruit, if they could get it at an attractive price." Writins to the Glaci.r from VI Monte. Calif.. F. G. Wilson, a formor local resident, ssys that Hood Kivtr ac'des are aellin? in south, rn Calif nr. nia at from $1.00 to $2.40 pt r box. Apple growers market on an average but 40 per cent of their crop, decland 0. H. Benson, expert of the depart ment of agricutlure, in an address last week fn Portland. Waste is more to blame for this condition than insuffi cient markets, he explained. w.itn more thrift in this countrv. more saving and less waste, living costs might be cut in two. for we waste about half our supplies," he said. The old way of canning fruit will not do any more, according to Mr. Benson, whoBe specialty is the organizing of boys' and girls' industrial clubs. With a canning outfit, and fruit, in cluding oranges, from the 'public mar ket, Mr. Benson showed how fruit should be canned. Instead of usina the old method and boiling the fruit in an pen vessel, he put it in a closed uten- I and held it at a temperature less than boiling for about an hour and 20 minutes. This process, he explained, temizes the fruit and the cell struc ture is not broken down by boiling. It is generally known in the north west that the Puyallup and Sumner fruit Growers Association is one of the most successful organizations of its kind in the country. It was organized in 1902, with a capital stock -of $2,000, which has been increased now to $2,503. The success of the organization is due n great part to the efforts of the ures- ident and general manager, W. H. Paulhamus. So valuable are the ser- ices of Mr.Paulhamus considered that the annual report of the association for the year 1914 says : "In order to extend the best possible financial standing to the Association, the life of the president and general manager, W. H. Paulhamus, is insured in favor of the Puyallup & Sumner Fruit Growers' Association in the sum of $25,000 in case of death from any cause. Accident policies in the sum of $37,500 are also carried. The latter policies are subject to many different amounts according to the nature of the ccident. for example, if he should meet death on a railroad train or an utomobile. the amount of the death loss would be $75,000, plus the regular policies of $25,000 referred to above, making a total payment to the Associ ation of $100,000. These policies were obtained at an annual cost to the Asso ciation of $1,199.75. All premiums paid to June 18, 1915." On December SI of last year the As sociation had a net surplus of $100,000. It has a membership of 1,600 growers. It has canneries in the Puyallup and Sumner valleys with a floor space of more man izo.t'uu leet. How to Prevent Bilious Attacks.
