THE EXPERIMENT STATION
Has the I loci River branch of the
Oregon state experiment station been
worth the $5,04)0 annually expended
on it eince it was inaugurated in 1913?
A a purveyor of public opinion of the
Hood Kiver valley orthardisls we must
answer the question in the negative
During the first of thia year rarely i
week (.bused that the Glacier office did
not have a caller, (tome rancher, regis
tering a complaint against the station
Numerous of the criticisms offered, it
is true, anise over some personal dif
ference between the critic and the ex
perts in charge of the station. How
ever, the complaints heiame so general,
and the criticisms so pertinent that we
bt'ian an investigation of our own ac
cord. Our research lends us to a summary
thut might be embodied in the one
word answer to the question asked
above. We have found that the sta
tion is in charge of younp men whose
affability in their personal contact
with glowers and whose diligence for
work are above reprouch. We have
found that the station in a number of
instances has rendered valuable ser
vices to the community, but on the
whole, as a community ur.d slate insti
tution, we feel, and we U'lieve that a
preponderance of Hood River valley
opinion will back us in the assertion,
it is failing in its tasks.
Now for three yeui.i the Ira-ch
station has been active in the study of
local problems. Still growers tell us
that it is almost an impossibility to
get a positive recommendation fur the
handling of troubles, and as u result
former staunch supporters of tl.o insti
tution have become critics. This lack
of positive assertion, we think, one of
the greatest defects in the system of
the Oregon experiment station.
Another fault found with the system
of the experiment station, and the
blame for this we do not attempt to
attach to any individual or set of indi
viduals is that of allowing its experts
to leave a certain district just about
the time they have become acquainted
with conditions. Because of this fea
ture the local station has come to be
called "the kindergarten" among the
ranchers. We point to the loss of C.
C. Starring, formerly located here.
Mr. Starring ahould have just about
reached a point whore his knowledge
of things would have made him a valu
able man, when he left for Montana.
This shifting of men, after they have
learned a certain work is responsible
for much of our general inefficiency in
all industries.
We make these criticisms, not in a
spirit of wanton attack, but with hopes
that they may bo lead to some con
structive betterment of a great institu
tion. The Oregon experiment station
has been of inestimable bunclit to the
state. The weak points that the grow
ers of apples of Hood Kiver valley
have pointed out to us should not pre
vail. THE STOCK SHOW
Hood Kiver will have its first stock
show week after next. From every
indication it is Ruing to be a good
show, and worthy of the support of all
the people of the valley. We think
that those in charge of the proposed
event are making wise plrnis. No ef
fort will be made to make a remuner
ative business of the stock show. How
ever, it is hoped, and efforts are being
made in this direction, that the affair
will be self supporting. The stock show
management is taking no chances. It
is not speculating. No money will be
spent for high priced foreign, freak at
tractions. The show will bo given for
the purpose of boosting and creating
an interest in the increased production
of such livetsock as will bring in profit
to the grower of apples.
Hood Kiver apple growers are to he
congratulated because of the opportun
ities they have of entering into a lim
ited diversity of farming along with
their predominiuit apple industry.
Many districts, because of lack of irri
gation facilities cannot so expand.
Their natural surroundings forces them
to keep all their eggs in one basket.
Dr. M. E. Welch, the local veterinar
ian, showed at the Glacier oflice the
ot'ier tiny, a copy of New Richmond,
Wis., News, of which his son, Robert
Welch, is editor. Dr. Welch called our
attention to the interest that is being
taken by school children of the Wiscon
sin country in live stock. The students
of the Richmond high school have been
holding contests for milk production.
And why not "JJJ
The boys and girls of that section,
we predict, will grow into useful men
and women. They will not be seized
witn a desire to hasten away to the
city, called by the lure of some per
verted ideas.
And another thought, a suggestion of
no less a publication than Collier's
Weekly, is brought to our mind as we
contemplate the approaching stock
show. Collier's proposes that the moth
eaten wild beasts of city zoological gar
duns be replaced, at least in part, by
riure bred farm animals. Give the city
kid a chance to know what a real cow
looks like. We commend the sugges
tion. .
Certainly, advance the plane of the
farmer's life in the popular mind. Take
the hayseed out of the farmer's hair.
Near Twin City, Ida., parents, on
leaving home, locked their own two
'children and a visiting child in the
' house. They returned to find the ri-
dence in ashes and the children dead,
their charred bodies unrecognizable.
One may well be surprised at such
rsrelesnness that caused the appalling
tragedy of the Eastland, but how much
more so at the deliberate, criminal
carelessness of parents, whose actions
result in such minor shocking inci
dents.
Unless people of Hood River and
i White Salmon are more careful in
their use of the O.-W. R. & N. railway
bridge, foir.e shocking fatality is liable
to result. Almost daily pedestrians
walk out on the high, lung structure,
and it is not infiequent that we hear
of narrow escapes there.
Have you canned your peaches? Re
member that this is peach week and
that every Oregonian is expected to
buy a box of the luscious fruit to help
the congested market conditions.
The fleeting vacation days have
gone. Rack to school and books on
Monday.
Hood River continues to skim the
cream in getting $2.25 for pears. (Ire
gonian. Rain next Monday. Our prediction
is based on Hood Kiver history.
COUNCIL PLANS AN
AID TO PEACH MEN
Accoiding to H. F. Davidson, who
ban just returned from North Yakima,
where he has spent the summer assist
ing peach and pear orchardists in the
marketing of their crop, following
ilans outlined by the Northwestern
'tuit Growers Council, the Council has
been of inestimable benefit to the
growers of the eastern Washington dis
tricts. "The growers of these communities
are gratilieu witn the success or this
season," says Mr. Davidson. "It is
generally conceded that except for the
plans inaugurated by the Council, the
pear market would have dropped to
such a point that the cost of harvesting
me irun wouni nave oeen as great as
the returns received, and as for the
peach market, the price would have
gone even lower.
for several years peach growers
have allowed from a third to a fourth
of their crop to go to waste in the
fields. This season the peaches will be
picked clean. Itoth the crops of peach
es and pears will be harvested and sold
at a profit to growers, despite the dis
couragement met with at the beginning
of the season and the obstacles met
with in moving two big crops of fruit
simultaneously. While the prices at the
beginning of the season opened lower
than usual, there was far less of a de
cline than formerly. In my estimation,
the plans of the Growers' Council, if
wisely managed, will continue to be of
the greatest benefit to the Northwest
ern fruit growers."
Mr. Davidson, who has resigned from
his active duties in connection with
the Growers' Council and the Shippers'
League, he having been president of
the latter organization, will spend sev
eral days here looking after his private
orchard interests. He will leave next
Thursday or Saturday for New York,
where he will open an oflice to handle
the export and Atlantic coast business
of the Apple Growers Association.
During thia week the peach and pear
markets of the eastern Wahsington sec
tions are in charge of W. 11. i'aulha
mus, chairman of the executive com
mittee of the Growers' Council, and
Geo. C. Corbaley, of Spokane, one of
the instigators of the plan. Truman
Butler, a member of the executive
committee of the organization, is also
present to observe results being ob
tained hy the Council's plans.
Mr. Davidson says that as yet it is
difficult to make any prediction as to
export shipments.
"Space will be hard to secure,' he
says, "and the market will be limited
to the British tales. ; We are not count
ing on getting any fruit to amount to
anything to the Continent. I hope tu
secure some space on my arrival in
New York. While a good part of our
export apples were shipped to New
York last winter by way of the Rananip
canal, we have nut contracted for any
space by thia route this season. The
crop is small, and despite the discour
aging export outlook, we look for lair
prices.
"Other districts have sold a good
many of their later commercial vario
lic. The Association has made no sales
of this class of fruit; for we will not
sell as cheaply as marketers of the
other districts."
Mr. Davidson says that the peach
growers of Yakima and adjoining dis
tricts have received an average of 25
cents net per box for their fruit this
year. Tear growers have been getting
around $17..r0 per ton for their product.
HIGH WInFcAUSES
FIRES TO SPREAD
The high wind springing up Sunday
afternoon caused terror in numerous
communities, where brush tires were
smouldering. The flames of tires on
the north bank ol the Columbia several
miles west of Hood and Underwood
were caused to spread with amazing
rapidity, and by nightfall the entire
north aide of the gorge was a seething
mass of flames.
Men and women were called by the
lire alarm and battled to prevent the
fire from crossing the highway at the
tup of the gorge and entering heavy
timber on Underwood mountain. Hood
and Underwood stations were in peril
threughout the night, the wind, reach
ing a velocity of a gale about midnight
carrying brands fur long distances.
The fire was spectacular and was
watched with interest late into the
night by local peope. Except for the
destruction of the foliage of the goige
Bide and the shed of an old sawmill just
west of the home of A. J. llaynes, no
damage was done.
Forest tires on the headwaters of the
Sandy river caused grave fears the first
ot the week, but at last reports were
under control. A fire has been burning
in the Upper Valley on Tony creek.
Reavis Takes Over Postoffice
T.A. Reavis, recently appointed post
master of the local oflice to succeed J.
V. Lucas, took oh arffe of the office va.
terday.
Mr. Lucas has not yet made definite
plans for the future. He and Mrs. Lu
cas will remain fur the time being, at
least, at ineir noon Kiver home.
DYER OPENS UNIQUE
OPEN AIR STUDIO
Perhaps the most unique photograph
ic studio in the United States is that of
W. B. Dyer, whose orchard .ranch la
located on the verge of the Hood River
in the Oak Grove district. Canyon
Crest, Mr.' Dyer, a leader in new photo
graphy, calls bia place. The new place
consists of two acres of beautiful wood
land overhanging the river gorge. The
trees and native shrubs have been pre
served in groupings such as will be of
value in giving unique attractiveness
to the portrait, bven a sandpile nas
been provided for the children, that the
tots may feel perfectly at home.
"In this age of out of dour life,"
says Mr. Dyer, "I feel that amongst
the woodland beauties of nature both
the adult and the child will lend
their best to the picture, and find a
pleasure even in sitting for a portrait."
" Mr. Dyer's pictures are of the port
folio form and of the same serious im
portance as attracted to his work in
Chicago when he was the first to intro
duce the newer school of photography.
He is a member of the I'hoto-SecetBion
of New York City, and of the Linked
Ring, of London. During the past win
ter be collected among the New York
workers one of the most important
sections of the exhibit of pictorial pho
tography now on exhibition at the P.
P. 1. exposition. Mr. Dyer was invited
to serve as a member of the jury of
photography at the exposition. A
number of his pictures decorate the
walls of the art room of the Oregon
building at the fair.
"1 don't think there is another such
cilace in the country as my Canyon
Crest studio," says Mr. Dyer, "and I
think it will hnd favor with the public,
who will always be welcome.'
RAILROAD WARNS
AGAINST BRIDGE USE
The O.-W. R. & N. Co. warns people
against trespassing on the steel bridge
across Hood river. Because of the
longer distance by wagon road, many
people traveling to and from the boat
landing have been accustomed to cross
the railway bridge. Men, women and
children have made use of it. Pedes
trians carrying heavy suitcases have
been seen crossing the structure.
Last week as a speeder came from
the east, several small children were
crossing the bridge. The occupants of
the swiftly moving car saw the young
sters, and although they could have
stopped easily within a few feet of
them, they brought the speeder to a
standstill several hundred feet away,
fearing that they might frighten the
little fellows and cause them to jump
into the river below.
Several months ago Robert Bright,
county charge, was killed whlie
crossing the bridge.
WINANS ESTABLISHES
LOST LAKE CAMP
W. R. Winans haB informed the coun
ty court that he has established a con
struction camp a short distance north
of l edar springs on the Lost Lake road
and ithat work on the opening of the
road began Juesday. He states that
all subscriptions of cash or work are
now due and should be remitted at once
in order that the work may be prose
cuted without delay. Remittances may
be made to either W. R. Winans at
Dee or to the Butler Banking Company
Hood River. The work will be super
intended by Allen Macrum, road super
visor. FAIR TRIP CONTEST
CLOSES WEDNESDAY
The contest among the young ladies
of the city for the free trip, or its
equivalent, $50 in gold, will close next
Wednesday at five o'clock. Votes will
be received until that hour.
But four candidates of the original
large number remain. They are very
close according to the count of this
week. The standing of the candidates
is as follows:
Marjorie Burr 70,7S7
Ktlieljiine McDonald 72,11

Base Ball Billy Sunday says if Mrs.
Eddy conies back to life he will swal
low a pole cat and wash it down with a
pint of whisky. Billy's appetite and
digestion must be as strong and vigor
ous as the stunts he does in vulgarity.
Like the rest of us, Billy is part
humbug and part the real goods, and
the humbug part helps him as much as
the other part, and adds to his prestige
and success.
When liarnum threw down the apron
of a bar tender to become our greatest
showman on earth, he said the Ameri
can people liked to be humbugged, and
he proposed to do the trick. How well
he succeeded, to our delight and his fi
nancial profit, everybody knows. Ev
ery kind of fakir, fraud, fanatic and
humbug, secular and religious, but es
pecially religious, has flourished Jand
reaped rich harvests among the Ameri
can people; Joseph Smith, Brigham
Young. Alexander Dowie, Mrs. Eddy,
end-of-the-world cranks, Pastor Rus
sell, Base Ball Billy, etc.
Dr. Manners, from New Jersey, who
was with us four years ago, is making
a visit to his orchard on the Under
wood heights. He notes many im
provements since his last stay here.
An observing citizen remarked the
other day that one of the drawbacks to
our otherwise attractive and progres
sive community was the liars who
were doing an active business. We
have some members of the Annanias
fraternity among us; but they "are un
doubtedly a liability in almost every
community. If the same fate would
overtake the modern members of this
order as overtook the original founders
our undertakers would have the big
gest undertaking they ever undertook.
The cditoi of the Pacific Hometead
passsed our way the other day and
gave us a good write-up and "pulled"
at least two of us. May he come again
and look around some more. Our faces
are set toward the future and not to-
... I . L - . I M . . .
warn me pasi. in ract, we nave no
past. All round us we see history in
the making. We are pioneers and
pathfinders, doing the hard work of
clearing the jungle and opening up a
highway into a better future. Great
cities will yet Hash and roar all up and
down our fertile valleys where only a
few years ago the wild Indians roamed
and divided their time between chasing
the wild game and chasing each other.
The greatest cities of history will be
on the Pacific coast. Today Portland
and Seattle are three .thousand miles
from New York, but tomorrow New
York will be three thousand miles
