the marshal was called and told that

"I visited a car down in the freight

says Marshal Carson. "1 found just 20
men sleeoins in that car, and around
one of them waa wrapped the cover
that 1 was looking for."
The marshal took the man to the city
ail, and Thursday morning, when he
waa threatened wun Droeecuuun iui
the theft of the wagon sheet, he de-
Flared that he had not stolen the art
icle. "It waa there and 1 just picked
t up and wrapped it around me, he
said. "I had no idea of stealing it.
W. H. Taft, who beard the man a
story, was impressed by the sincerity
of it. He refused to prosecute we lei-
low. "Are you broke?" he asked the
man. And when the fellow replied
that he waa Mr. Taft dug down into his
nocket and eave him a piece ol money.
Marshal Carson declares mat me un-

The annle deal is winding up better
than was expected.according to Wilmer
Sieg, who is in New York representing
the Nortn facinc fruit uistriDutors.
"The demand has continued exception
ally cood." Mr. Sieg is quoted as say-
ins in the New York Produce News.
"Aside from the local demand the
European trade has taken the fruit
much faster than anticipated. There is
all probability that the boxed apple
deal will wind ud much better than be
lieved. The cheap prices seem finally
to have stiumlated consumption to a
point where the fruit is moving rapid
ly."
The citrus fruit business is In a very
bad wav in every section of the coun
try. Grape fruit crops are not being
harvested. It seems almost certain
that acreage will be decreased. Down
in California the orange growers are
gaid to be ready to so out of business.
Everything points to a survival of
'the litest. The big acreages have
created for the time being a supply
that has been turning heaven and earth
for a demand. Now. it seems, that
automatically that supply will decrease.
and the demand that has been created
will not be filled. In the course of time
the man with a fruit orchard, be it an
cles or citrus fruits, will come into his
own.
The same course may be expected in
the northwest. The consumption of box
ancles has been greatly increased.
However, on account rf the disasters
of marketing, the unfit orchards will
be eliminated. The man with an orch
ard in a tried and proven district, who
sticks to the business, has good days
head. And Hood River is one of the
beet of districts.
Mr. Kimball has been very faithful
in his observation work, and it is prob-
ble that he will, after a period, pur
chase the apparatus fun ished at the
present time by the government.
To be of any great Dentin tne oDser-
vations in a given district should extend
over a long period oi time, necorus
showing the time of guatest danger
from frost in the spring and autumn,
should be very valuable to the grower.
Urchardists express the hope that the
United States Weather l.ureau will
further aid with this worn.
Below is given an interesting tabula
tion of the maximum ana minimum
temperatures of April. May, June, Oc
tober and November for the past three
years :
the engine had not yet been installed. ,
Mr. Ford turned to his visitor and said :
"Well, it has iyn so far on its reputa-'
tion," to which the quick-witted Reed '
replied: "If that is the case, we had ;
better "phone for help to take us back, I
for 1 never knew a Ford to 'go back on
its reputation.' " j

WHY NOT MAKE
A FLYLESS TOWN
During his talk of making Oregon a
spotless state and having the Hood
River Valley an oasis in an mis splen
dor, it has been suggested that the an
noying, playsome, frolicsome ny tie not
forgotten. The question, has been
asked: "Why not make Hood River a
flyles8 town? While the fly is like the
poor and we will always nave mm
with us," his numbers, by proper pre
caution, may be greatly decimated.
Flies breed and multiply in manure
pits. However, it is no great task to
build a sanitary manure pit that will
exclude any family of flies that may
come seeking a home, where they may
rear a few thousand children. All that
is necessary is that the pit be boarded
up and covered with wire-ny-prooi
screening. A simple matter.
E. M. Holman, of the Heights, has
just completed the construction of such
a pit and states that he will be glad to
explain the plans to anyone desiring to
help eradicate the pesky fly.
Mr. Merchant, a price marker will
save you hours of time when marking
your goods. Accuracy and neatness are
its commendable features. A few cents
buys one at this otlice.

Commenting on the Panama canal
situation from the viewpoint of the
northwestern fruit man, a bulletin of
the Nortwhestern Fruit Exchange says
There is considerable disappointment
that the Panama canal has failed to
give more decided and immediate relief
to fruit shippers of the Pacific coast.
It is still conceded that lasting benefits
will accrue; but time, patience and
nerseverance will be required. When
the war ends and normal navigation
conditions are resumed, it seems prob
able that Bteamship companies will be
more aggressive to provide requisite
facilities for handling large tonnage
from Pacific coast fruit and vegetable
shippers. The citrus industry of Cali
fornia is nushing this matter more ac
tively than any other factor, and north
western fruit shippers win snare me
results of their efforts.

E. E. Schenck. chief engineer of the
C. & N. W. line at Omaha, Neb., who
owns an East Side orchard tract, has
sent to the Glacier an interesting clip
nine from the New York Jimes. A
special correspondent of that metropol
itan daily has written an interesting
article telling of the Kaiser's teachers
as great war aids, the professors have
adapted themselves to the situations as
thev find them. Some are making good
Boldiers at the battle front. Linguists
are assisting in the provinces with
breaking in raw troops.
But one of the most interesting por
tion of the article deals with food and
material resources of the Germans.
Note the prominence of the apple, al
though it is metioned but once, in the
following clipping:
Prof. Dr. Carl Ludwig Schleich re
centlv wrote an article on "Abstinence
from Food," in which he Btsted that
Germans in time of peace almost with
out exception ate too much. He said :
One has always hesitated to speak
it out openly, for social reasons, that
in general not only the well to do, but
also our workers and our poor, speak
ing strictly scientifically, eat far more
than necessary in order to be nour
isbed. It ia a proven fact that with a
couple of carrots, a few nuts, ao apple
a day, and a ;quart oi water per day,
one can eain in weight.
He added that an occasional "hunger
dav" would do everbvodv good.
The ground for trie new Dreaa oral
nances was prepared weeks and months
aso bv an effective press campaign, in
which many professors snowed mat
mixed rye and wheat bread was more
nourishing than pure white rolls and
bread; that black bread was even bet
ter, and that the addition of 20 per
cent or more of potato flour would not
materially impair the food value of
bread, while bringing with it advan
tazes. especially the necessity of chew
ine the bread more tborouzlhy and
thereby aiding digestion.
