Tic r r.vrntion of fruit growers of
t' -i- : ,t i.ortli western states, which
ii 1 1 i.t facoma February 15, perfected
a 1 1 rinanent oranizslion known as the
Growers' Council, with the firm con
victiun that the apple industry will he
benefited. The burden of responsibility
fur results will rest upon the executive
board, hacked up hy the Hoard of Con
trol, which is corrptitetJ of a representa
tive fiorn each apple district. To se
cure any results whatever, this execu
tive bourd must have the full coopera
tion of the growers, themselves. To
this end it is proposed to organize each
district of growers, that they may
fur in an (irganizatiun.th.tt will affiliate
thenitielves with such selling agencies
as ere w illing to abide by rules and
methods of doing business demanded by
the growers through such organization.
No plan will be submitted that is not
fair to growers and shippers alike, nor
to which any honest selling agency or
so-palled individual shipper can object.
While the growers will endeavor to fix
a minimum selling price for each vari
ety and grade of apples, perhaps differ
ent prices for different districts, jet it
ia not the intention to boot t prices be
yond a point consistent with the law of
supply and demand, or beyond a point
that will prohibit the free consumption
of apples.
The disastrous pricea for the 1914
crop of apples was caused mainly by
unorganized methods of distribution and
selling, in which price cutting started
early in the fall by large and small
dealers alike, in a wild scramble to un
load. The individual grower who went
to market with one to six carloads of
his own fruit, found the wolves wait
ing to take advantage of him and eat
him up, which was done. Thousands of
cars on consignment at all principal
markets were then unloaded at the low
prices established by the forced sale of
the few cars of the individual caught
hclpess far from home, who was forced
to take what was offered. The auction
market in each large city, owned and
controlled by a half dozen commission
men, was used to set a low price when
other methods failed. Prices were thus
often established 60 cents to $1 below
what the consumer was able and will
ing to pay, and made the market so
uncertain tnat buyers were afraid to
buy at all except for immediate needs
from day to day, for fear that hfs com
petitor would be able to underbuy and
undersell him.
The big crop of apples in the east,
European war, and the mild weather
until lute in the'fall, enabling the ped
dling of bulk Hpples all over the middle
west until November, were conditions,
of course, that would have made good
prices impossible. Yet with an organ
isation of the growers of the entire Pa
cific northwest, needless sacricfies could
have been prevented, and there was
Riifiiciont demand for our apples to have
sold them all at an average price of
perhaps 25 cents a box more than will
now be returned to the growers for the
I'JU crop.
A plan has been adopted by the
Crowns' Council which it is believed
will stabilize the market and make ap
ple growing protfiulde, if it hus the
unanimous suppoit of the growers
themselves-.. They have it within their
power to demand of their selling agen
cies, whoever they may be, certain
things for the prelection of the grower
In selecting VV. II. Piiulhainus as the
executive head of this movement, they
are confident that they have found a
nnin who cim accomplish this result.
It is a full man's job, and they believe
they have found a big man to do it.
He has made a record in organizing and
successfully operating the berry busi
ness of nearly 1700 fruit growers in
western Washington that has no paral
lel in the United States. His tremen
dous energy, force of character, integ
rity and ability as a leader of men, has
inspired the full confidence of every
man at the meeting of the Growers'
Council that he is the Moses to lead us
out of the wilderness. It is now up to
the growers to try him out and give
him a chance.
The Pine Grove farmers' institute
was a reminder of the meeting of sev
eral year' ago, when the fiuit growers
studied how to perfect fruit culture.
The fruit men several years ago dis
cussed hog raining, dairying and other
topics of diveKifiid farming, hut not
with the turtle interest that is mani
fested today. Vet the orchard is still
considered, and rightly, the predomin
ant industry of the Hood Uiver valley.
Apple growers have formerly studied
the methods in use by cooperative or
ange felling associations. Now the ap
ple men seem to have forged ahead
here in the northwest by the organiza
tion of their Growers' Council, and
maybe we will.see the orangemen tak
ing lessons from the apple growers.
It is an ill wind that blows nobody
good, and Portland people are able this
year to get a part of the cream of the
Hood River apple crop at prices so low
that consumption should be hastened.
Three inches of snow at Hood River
means thousands of dollars for the fruit

MANY ATTD THE
GRANGE INSTITUTE
The farmers' institute at Pine Grove
grange hall last Kriday under the aus
pices of the grange of that community
was very successful, and w consid
r.ri.fitl,lit I v all in attendance.
The meeting lasted from the middle of
tha mnmini until Kridav night. The
r fh vranpe deserve credit for
the success of the event on account of
the excellent meals served.
Knur exnerts from the Oregon Agri
cultural College were present, and de
livered lectures as follows: Prof. Ho
auet. "The Contribution of the r'arm-
. , . i L ' I i ii i r. "
ers oaroen nmcriuiini
Prof. Lamb, "Poultry Husbandry;'
Prof Pitt. "Iloir liaising and Dairy
and Prof. Brown, "Insect Pests
i,i Plant Diseases."
Many questions were asked each
sneaker, and valuable information was
gainer! by the ranchers.
J M Tavlnr. a member of the com
mittee in charge of the institute.makes
the fulowing report of the session:
The Farmers' Institute held at Pine
Grove hail, February 1J, was a big suc
cess and was well attended. Prof,
lirjant spoke in the morning on "The
Farmer's Garden." He gave a very
interesting talk and showed his knowl
edge of the subject by the way he an
swered the many questions that were
fired at him. We certainly got some
useful suuirestions to practice on our
Hardens this year fro n Prof. Uoouet,
Prof. Ilrown finished up the morning
session by giving a splendid talk on by
nroducts. a subiect that all were inter
ested in, and 1'rof. Ilrown handled his
subject in an able manner. Me nan a
sample of some apple syrup that was
made by Geo. Lleaver.wno saia tnai ne
could pay one cent a pound tor me ap
plea by selling syrup fur $1.25 per gah
ion.
At the conclusion of Prof. Brown's
lecture dinner was called. The ladies
of the grange did themselves justice
and unheld their reputation by the
splendid dinner that was served.
Chicken nie. salad, jellies, cream pie
and all the other good things that go
to make up the good dinners that are
served at the hall. Prof. Brown passed
around to each person at the table a
spoonful of the apple syrup. All pro
nounced it fine.
At 2 p. m. Prof. Fitta gave an inter
esting talk on hogs. The audience was
about evenly divided on whether he
should speak on hog raising or dairying
so it was decided to have the cow lec
ture at the evening session.
Prof. Pitts recommended that we
start with thoroughbred stock, saying
that it did not cost any more to raise
and would give better results.
Prof. Lamb s lecture was on poultry
husbandry, and was listened to very
attentively. Prof. Lamb is certainly
well qualified to speak on the subject
of 'poultry and gave many valuable
pointers.
A vote was taken to see if we could
get enough out for an evening session,
and the vote showing a large part of
the audience wishing it so, it was so
decided. When 8 o'clock came it was
seen there was as large an attendance
as at the afternoon session. Prof.
Fitts started the ball rolling by giving
a very instructive talk on the dairy
cow, at the end of which he was as
sailed by a regular battery of rapid fire
questions, all of which he answered.to
everyone's satisfaction.
Prof. Lamb then gave us an illus
trated lecture on poultry. He was fol
lowed by Prof. Brown with an illus
trated lecture on insect pests and plant
diseases.
All these gentlemen are fine men and
we hope to meet .the in in the near fu
ture again. We were forutnate in se
curing the gentlemen, as this was their
only open date for more than a month
ahead. While the institutes make much
work for tho committee we are pleased
to know the people appreciate it by
turning out in the large numbers that
they did in this busy time.
BOTTOM OUT OF CHI
CAGO APPLE MARKET
Hood River growers are congratulat
ing themselves over the fact that the
most of their holdings have been dis
posed of with tho exception of New
towns, the exportation of which was
stopped on account of the European
war. Oscar Vandebilt has received a
letter fomJChicago injwhich it is stated
that the bottom has dropped out of the
box apple market there. Extra fancv
Spilzenburgs are being offered at $1.25
per box, and in instances still lower.
The freight per box on apples to Chi
cago is iiU cents: the fruit was KeuiDr
offered from storage, the charge for
which is HO cents per box the selling
commission is 10 cent; and the average
ngency charge, 10 cents per box. It
will be seen that the net returns to
"rowers on apples sold at such prices is
ou cents, iar less than the cost of pro-
tiucuon.
S. J. FRANK IMPORTS
ENGLISH CHICKENS
Sherman J. Frank, owner of the Av-
alon Way Poultry yard, has just re
ceived from loin Barron, a noted Eng
lish cnicKen rancier and breeder, a pen
consisting of four pullets and a cock
erel, of single comb White Leghorns.
The fowls have a verv fine euur lavine
record. The dam of the cockerel has a
record of 'li'i eggs in 12 months, while
the dam of the pullets laid 27? eggs in
12 months. The birds were shipped
irom cngiana on the S. S. Adiatic
They were 19 days en route.
'I am pretty proud of the chickens,"
says Mr. Frank. "They have already
begun to lay. On Sunday 1 received
three eggs from the pullets."
Tom Barron has taken record prizes
ai egg laying contests in both England
and America. Writing to Mr. Frank
he stated that the hens sent were the
best his pens afforded.
THOUSANDS INSPECT
HOOD RIVER APPLE
It is reported that thousands'of in
terested spectators have seen the big
led apple exhibited by the Hood River
alley in the Palace of Horticulture at
the San Francisco. During the first
three days of the fair, according to a
telegram received by R. E. Scott from
C. N. Ravlin, on a conservative esti
mate 160,000 people saw the apple.
"Crowds are packed in front of it
every minute," read Mr. Ravlin's tele
gram. "It is'making a big hit. This
will be verified by J. M. Wood and Le
Roy Armstrong."
MOOSE WILL STAGE
WRESTLLNG MATCH
About the qiceat work on record in
ttaging athletic events was done last
week by the entertainment committee
of the Moose lodge when arrangement
were made for a wrestling bout be
tween Ted Thye, of Spokane, and Jack
Hartman, of Burlington, Iowa. Thye
arrived in town in response to a wire
from the committee at 2.40 o'clock
Saturday afternoon. A meeting was
held in the evening and a night letter
sent to Hartman, who was in Ellens
burg. Wash., on that day. Before noon
Sunday an answer had been received
and the arrangements were complete.
Both men.well known middleweight,
will be on hand several daya before
the match and both are confident of
winning. Neither underestimates the
ability of his opponent, however, and it
is generally agreed that the bout will
be a fast on.
Cochran, the local high school wrest
ler, meets Egbert, of The Dalles high
school, in the first of the preliminaries.
McGuire and Heppner will appear just
before the main event. The bouts will
be held in the Moose hall, and will be
the first public event to be held there
since the signing of the five year lease.

BIG CROWD ENJOYS
PATRIOTIC CONCERT
The Riverside Congregational church
was filled Monday evening, when the
members of the Hood River Choral so
ciety, appeared before the public in
their first concert. The singers were
seated on a large stage especially con
structed lor the occasion. All were
garbed in colonial costumes.
No Hod River concert has ever been
more pleasing. The ensemble work of
the big chorus was excellent. In fact,
at no time did the program drag. Ev
ery number held the audience.
Master Chas. Clarke, hobbling with
a cane on account of a case of colonial
lumbago, added to the singing of
"When George 111 Was King," with
his impersonation of an old colonial
gentleman. Tha audience was made to
realize the value of big pockets of the
old fashioned gown and how it would
be appreciated today, when Mies Alice
Tompkins spoke her piece.
No number was more pleasing than
the duet, "Dost Thou Love me. Sister
Ruth?" by Miss Aldine Bartrness and
Este Brosius. Mr. Brosius made his
proposal in "basso profundo," Miss
Bartrness answering in a soprano. Her
