PEOPLE OPTIMISTIC
Among the most optimistic citizens
of Hood River are D. H. Drewery and
Harry T. DeWitt, of the Columbia
Auto & Machine Co., both of whom are
expecting one of the best years the
valley has ever had in the automobile
business next year. The automobile
men are receiving many inquiries for
Fords and Dodges, both of which have
proven very popular in the orchard dis
trict and with businessmen of the city.
"We are expecting a number of sales
at Cascade Locks," says Mr. Drewery.
"The opening of the Columbia river
highway has been a great stimulus to
the people there. For years they have
been unable to reach the outside
world, except by train and boat."
Last week the Columbia Auto & Ma
chine Co. sold two Becond hand cars,
one a Studebaker formerly owned by
B. K. Pooley, to John Smithson, an
employe of the Oregon-Washington
Telephone Co. here, and the other, a
Ford runabout, to P. H. Holmes, of
Salem.
The Ford was shipped from here to
Portland. From that city it was driv
en to Salem by Mr. Drewery, who was
accompanied by his wife.

Sudden Muscular Aches and Pains
Need not be!
That is if you use the right remedy.
Sloan's Liniment is a real necessity in
every home for young and old. Its
merit is praised in dozens of letters. A
stiff neck from colds, cliildren's sprains,
those aching muscles, that sharp neural
gia pain these find guaranteed relief in
Sloan's Liniment. Every home meets
with sudden aches and accidents. Yoiu

Johnson Secures Judgment
J. L. Johnson, who was suing in a
replevin action to restore to the prem
ises a water system, wad given judg
ment against the Pacific Land Co., of
which A. Welch was president. It was
claimed by the land company that the
water system apparatus never attached
as fixtures to the realty, and that since
it was personal property they had the
right of removal. However, they
failed to maintain their contentions by
the evidence adduced.
Colds Do Not Leave Willingly
Because a cold is stubborn is no reason
why you should be. Instead of "wear

Signs of Danger

River People
There's serioos danger in neglecting
any weakness of the kidneys. The
warning that Nature gives should not
be overlooked. If troubled by too fre
quent passage of the kidney secretions;
burning or scalding; if the secretions
are highly colored and contain sediment
when left standing if you have back
ache, too, with frequent headaches and
dizziness, make up your mind that your
kidneys are affected and begin using
some reliable kidney remedy. Deaths
from kidney disease have decreased in
the United States alone, 72 per cent
in the last 20 years. The risk is great
yon can't afford to delay. Hood River
people recemmend Doan's Kidney Pills.
Can you ask for better proof of merit
than the statement of ihis Hood River
resident?
Mrs. N. A. Monroe, 814 Cascade Ave.,
Hood Eiver, says: "My back and kid
neys bothered me a great deal and I felt
run down and miserable. Doan's Kid
ney Pills helped me greatly, soon restor-

I one should know of such fine medicine"

HANS LAGE RECALLS
HOOD RIVER ARRIVAL
"I recallfa snowfall just 40 yean ago
that was this early." said Hani Lage.
a pioneer homesteader of the East
Side, last Thursday, when discussing
tba snowstorm that wis prevailing
over the Hood River valley. "My
family and my wife's parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Claua Hoeck, arrived at the Hood
Kiver boat landing November 12, 1875.
It was snowing then.
"A flag was flying at the boat' land
ing. It bad been raised on the day
before at the time of the arrival of a
colony of settlers from Elmyra, N. Y.,
and points in Pennsylvania. We re
mained a day or two in Hood River,
then a mere settlement, and walked,
after ferrying across the Columbia, to
Gilmer, Wash., where we were con
templating settling. On the morning
of November 18 the thermometer reg
istered a temperature of four degrees
below zero at Gilmer and three feet of
anew covered the ground."
In addition to his wife, Mr. Lage'a
family at the time of his arrival con
sisted of two daughters, now matrons
of the Apple Valley, Mrs. W. P. Scobee
and Mrs. J. H. Koberg, and a son,
Henry Lage. The home place of Mr.
Lage baa always been conspicuous in
the East Side orchard district. While
neighbors planted all of their tillable
land to apple trees, a portion of the
Lage ranch was reserved for grain.
While the German pioneer, who came
here from Iowa, has engaged in the
orchard business, he has consistently
practiced diversified arming.
But three surviving members of the
Elmyra party now remain in Hood
River. They are: Mrs. Emma Ingalls
and her son, J. W. Ingalls, and Chas.
Wallace, whose father. J. W. Wallace,
passed away last summer. A sister of
Mr. Wallace, Mra. W. B. Perry, now
resides in California. But few of the
New York and Pennsylvania emigrants
remained in Hood River longer than to
stop over for the winter. As soon as
spring came they journeyed on down
the Columbia to the Willamette valley.
The late Lyman Smith, whose death
occurred last Wednesday at the home of
hia son. Will Smith, in Portland, was a
member of the party. .

P. P. I. E. Notes
(From Oregon Commission Bulletin)
The Oregon building now boasts the
most remarkable apple exhibit on the
exposition grounds a three box dis
play of Newtown Pippins from the
crops of aa many years? Beside a box
of the 1915 crop stands another of the
1914 crop, and beside that is a third
box of the 1913 crop. Except for the
fact that the 1914 apples are yellow, as
a matter of course, there is little or
no difference between these and this
year's apples. The box of fruit picked
in 1913 is a very deep yellow and ia not
far from decay, but these apples take,
a splendid polish and are not discredit
able beside the others. 'Ihis display
occupying a special position andprop
erly placarded is made by H. O. Fro
bach, of the southern Oregon booth,
and attracts a great deal of attention.
The keeping quality of Oregon apples
has been impressed upon visitors thor
oughly during this fair, placards telling
just how long fruit has. been on display.
While California experts change the
fruit in their exhibits every three or
four weeks, Oregon's representatives
find it unnecessary to make a change
under 10 weeks and in many instances
boxes of apples are kept on display
four months.
Fifty boxes of Spiteznburg apples
from Aslhand, 50 from Medford, 50
from the Willamette valley, 50 from
Hood River and 50 -from eastern Ore
gon placed on display in .the Oregon
building, were on November 15 given
to the thousands attracted byJOregon
apple day.
The real display of Oregon apples at
this time is that in the Palace of Hort
iculture, this being comprised of the
100 boxes sent for competitive pur
poses. These apples come wholly from
Hood River and Rogue River valleys
and are the finest these famed sections
can produce. More than 30 varieies are
represented, and the display, just now
being finished for judgment by thejury
of awards is beautiful beyond compare.
Oregon has'a Jlarger number of com
petitive entries than "any other state
and there is confidence that the jury
will find that Oregon has the finest
fruit being shown at the exposition.
The display is set in the center of the
Oregon pavilion at the Palace of Hort
iculture, cannot be passed by the thou
sands and will not be passed by any
who catch even a glimpse, lor it ia one
of those displays that hold the atten
tion and bring out those satisfying
"ohs."
How to Prevent Croup
It may be a surprise to you to learn
that in may cases croup ca i be prevent
ed. Mra. H. M. Johns, Klida, Ohio, re
lates her experience as follows; "My lit
tle boy is subject to croup. Daring the
past winter I kept a bottle ot unamDer
lain's Congh Remedy in the house, and
when he began having that croupy cough
I would give him one or two doses of it
and it would break the attach. I like it
better for children than any other cough
medicine because children take it will
ingly, and it ia safe and reliable." Ob
tainable everywhere.

H. R. GAS & ELECTRIC
TAKES OVER HYDRO
Announcement has been made bv Al
bert S Hall, manager of the Hood
River Gas & Electric Co., a subsidiary
concern of the Pacific Power & Light
to., that the parent company has taken
over the physical properties of the
Hydro-Electric Co.
"The properties have been leased to
our company, says Mr. Hall, "and
hereafter the two plants will be oper
ated under a single management."
The Oregon Railway Commission, in
a rate decision rendered July 14, placed
the value of the Hydro-Electric hold
ings at $111,977.08. The plant, built
on Hood river about six miles from the
city, began operation about February
1, 1912. Papers of incorporation were
granted June 5, 1911, authorizing a
capital stock of $250,000. The sum of
$150,000 in par value was issued as
fully paid common stock, in considera
tion of the transfer by the promoters
of the real estate, water rights, and
secondary franchises held by them. Of
.the $100,000 of preferred stock author
ized, the sum of $30,000, par value.

such stock for advances made by them
in the construction or the plant.
On January 15, 1913, the entire capi
tal stock of the company came under
the control or the American Power &
Light Co.
Commercial Club Notes
Uncle Charlie (C. R.) Bone stepped
into the club office last Thursday after
noon, fresh from a three days' trip to
Portland, full of enthusiasm for Hood
River. When asked if he had been to
the Land show he acknowledged he for
got all about it. He said he had been
talking to a lot of people who were
knocking Hood River and feeling sorry
that the land valuations of five years
ago had dropped to ao much lower lev
els. But Mr. Bone said he told them
the land was still here, and doing for
crops as well as it ever had.
"Why." he says. "1 told 'em Hood
River was going to take in more money
for crops this year than any year in its
history, and its so," he said. "Why,
Hood River is going to take in over a
million dollars this year for her soil
crops alone, besides making most of
her own butter and raising a sight more
of her hay than she ever did before.
It's too bad we have some of our citi
zens who can't stand the pressure left
from 1910; but the future never looked
so good to me for Hood River as it does
right now. Whenever a man wants to
buy an Oregon orchard from now on he
isn't going to look any place else be
sides Hood River, you see if he does."
On the evening of Fiiday, Nov. 26,
Dean Cordley, of the O. A. C, will be
in Hood River and hold a meeting in
the club rooms, to which business men
are requested to come. The financial
side of the experiment station will be
discussed. What it means in better
fruit as a better income producer; the
present cost and results. Shall we con
tinue to support it, or shall the atation
be enlarged, or quit. All are invited.
Schools Get New Books
Prof. C. D. Thompson is busy this
week making a distribution of 800
books that have been received for
county achool libraries. The books will
be prorated amongthe different schools
according to student population.
Superintendent Thompson is expect
ing an- additional shipment of 200
books. These were delayed because of
a slide iu the Panama canal.
Distress in the Stomach
There are many people who have a
distress in the stomach after meals. It
is due to indigestion and easily remed
ied by taking one d Chamberlain's Tab
lets after meals. Mrs. Henry Padgham
Victor, N. Y., writes: "For some time
I was troubled with headaches and dis
tress in my stomach after eating, also
with constipation. About six months
ago I began taking Chamberlain's Tab
lets. They regulated the action ot my
bowels and the headache and other an
noyances ceased in a ahort time." ; Ob
