Though the weather was the reverse
of promising the Udell fair at the
Methodist church last Friday night ex
ceeded the expectations of the most
sanguine. As an entertainment unlike
the ordinary ana one in which there
should be the maximum of amusement
at minimum expense it was a grand
success. The receipts amounted to
about $41. The Ladies' Aid is to be
congratulated on this, another of the
many successful affairs given under
the auspices of that society. To Mrs.
Davenport for planning and assisting
in carrying into execution; to Mrs.
Sbeirbon, as president, for selection of
committees, and to the members of
committees which included practically
every member of the society, credit for
success is due. Those familiar with
the work of such societies say they
have never seen finer committee work
than is the rule in this society.

It will be good news to the people of
the Frankton district who want to have
the high school maintained, to know
that the election last week had nothing
do with discontinung it. The high
school was voted on several years ago,
and it will take a majorty of the voters
at an election called for that purpose to
discontinue it. that proposition was
not voted on last week and the question
of sending the high school students to
Hood Kiver for one year was illegal, as
it only had 15 ef a majority, and there
were more than 20 votes cast that were
not legal. This, of course, is a matter
record and easily determined, and
will invalidate the election.
The Benson memorial arch promoters
are making arrangements to secure an
other location other than the top of the
Ruthton hill for its location, lhe
highest point on the west end of Cas
cade avenue in the town of Hood River
has been suggested. If the city council
would grant the light to erect it there
and perhaps change the name of the
street to Benson avenue, a fine concrete
arch would be erected over it that
would be a credit to the town and
county. If not. then Mitchell s Point
or some other suitable location will be
decided on in the near future and ar
rangements made to push it to comple
tion by the time the highway is finished
this fall.

MOSIER ASSOCIATION
MEMBERS PLEASED
At the annual stockholders meeting
of the Mosier Fruitgrowers' Associa
tion held Saturday the report of Mana
ger R. D. Chatfield showed that the net
amount to the grower was 74 cents a
box on all apples shipped through the
Northwest Fruit Exchange. '1 hia is
four cents higher than the amount re
ceived by the Hood Kiverl growers,
whose products were handled by the
exchange. A comparison of tie aver
age amount of the net returns by all
other districts in the northwest who
handled through the exchange showed
a net average of 64 cents against 74
cents for Mosier, an increase of 10
cents on the box.
it was shown by a comparison of the
report of the Hood River association'
with that of the local concern that the
apple returns outstanding in Hood
River was 26 per cent, while the Mosier
growers have received their returns.
W. F. Gwin, of Seattle, representing
the Northwest Fruit Exchange, was
firesent at the meeting and congratul
ated the Mosier growers on their re
markable success. He stated that the
Mosier apples were at the top of the
list in the northwest and in the mar
kets of the world. The differential in
favor of Mosier is 10.8 cents a box, an
increase of 18 per cent over Hood Rivei
growers. He explained that the adver
tising campaign conducted lor tn
Skookum brand of apples, had brought
30 cents over and above any other
brand on the New York market. In
regard to the Growers' Council Mr.
Gwin said:
"While we indorse this move, it de
pends on the ability of the men on the
executive committee. Great good may
come, and they have started well and
conservatively. However, they cannot
take the place of the large concerns in
the shipping, loading and marketing of
the apple crop and cannot defy the
economic laws of supply and demand.
Many of the growers expect them to
accomplish the impossible. But there
are years like 1914 to come in the fu
ture. However, there should be a uni
form classification of results, so that
the growers could examine the records
of the different marketing concerns
and drawtheir own conclusions. Bad
yeara and good years will come in the
future, and an average with one con
Auto & Machine Co.
cern should be taken for five-year per
iods.
"The causes for low prices this year
may be laid to unfavorable business
conditions, and the people sre econo
mizing. Another big factor wasthst
facilities for credit were paralyzed,
and dealers were unable to finance
deals."
Mr. Gwin said that those districts
which sold at the time of harvest, as
Mosier, received true .values 'and the
growers bad the early , benefit of re'
turns.
The directors, Amoa Root, Lee Ev
ana, 'C. A. Macrum, C. A. McCargar
and J. M. Carroll, were reelected
unanimously for the year and this body
has announced that tbey will retain K
D. Chatfield as manager. A vote of
thanks was extended by the growers to
the directors and manager for the effi
cient manner in which the affairs of
the association were bandied.
Hugo E. Birkner made a motion that
the association put in a stock of grair,
nay and feed which it would be able to
sell to the growers at a minimum price.
When asked b.y J. N. Mosier as to
whether there would be room to atore
these things without additional build
ings, Manager Chatfield atated that the
buildings were now taxed to capacity
during the fruit season. H. M. Scearce
moved to amend motion by leaving the
question to the directors as the grow
ers had no idea as to capital or space
required. The motion as amended was
carrried.
The report of the auditing committee
Bhowed the association in good standing
financially with a protfitable sesson.
l he same members were unanimously
reelected: Dr. David Robinson, Hugo
E. Birkner and John P. Ross.
Report of Manager Chatfield showed
the following fruit shipped by the asso
ciation and the average price re
ceived: 72,820 pounds Royal Annes, 4Jc per
pound.
24M) boxes cherries, VSc.

The entire band of Indiana of the
Painted Desert, at the San Diego Panama-California
exposition, assembled
in the corral the other day, wagering
all they had on Ko-Wa-Ta, champion
sheep shearer of his tribe, who was
matched against a white man using the
latest shearing machine. They became
more and more gloomy when the white
man, near tbe end ol an hour a test,
had sheared twice as many sheep aa
Ko-Wa-Ta, but let out a rosr of delight
when the machine slipped and drew
blood from the last sheep.
"No good," said Water Eagle.
White man bum shearer. Pay up."
The contest was arranged largely for
the purpose of supplying the Indians
with new wool for their rug and blan
ket weaving, one of the most consider
able industries on the exposition
grounds. The men and women, with
the youngsters as bepiers, do most or
their weaving and pottery making on
roofs of Pueblos of the Painted Desert
and in the sand in front of the "ho
gens," the huts of the plain Indians.
The machine shearer is aisconsoiste.
He savs one of the Indians prodded the
sheep and made it kick so bard that the
machine slipped.
