Colilns, who spent several weeks here last summer, appearing in "The Country Gentleman," of January 1. But the article bears a message that should be gratifying to all fruit men, of tried districts, and especially cheer ing to the faithful among the growers of the Hood River valley. Mr. Collins visited the most of the apple districts as well aa the citrus belts last year. His opening psrsrgaph shows that he observed conditions pret ty closely. He says: The big crop last year in famous winter-fruit sections seemed to be, not apples or oranges but meetings 1 Long before blossoming time the clans began gathering. From the citrus groves of California to those of Porto Rico the growers came together for debate and organisation, as well as for (.ructions and disorganization, and the appie world was in a ferment from the Rogue River .valley of Oregon to the Shenandoah valley of Virginia. Iranother parargapb he says: So growers everywhere began hold ing meetings, criticizing officers, man agers and market methods, withdraw ing from old organizations and forming new ones, listening to explanations, plans, dreams. One kind of growers, with a clear head, understood that it was the time to hang on to his inter ests, even though mortgages and 'loans made it desperately hard, and with the aid of the banker he hung accordingly. Another type of grower, yielding to gloom and discouragement, talked of letting go, of getting out of fruit into some profitable line, of chopping down his treea and raising grain or hay-on five-hundred-dollar land ! Then comes the message to growers and shippers and the cheer for the faithful. Extracts from the body of Mr. Collins' article are as follows: These are mighty interesting times in the fruit industry. On the surface, with all the clamor and pessimism, it often looks as though everything were going to pieces. Hut down underneath, the real meaning is reconstruction on a sounder business basis. Old evils in production are being eliminated and broader ideas of marketing are coming in everywhere. The need for organiza tion at home, where fruit is produced, is clearly seen by most growers, be cause shortcomings are close at hand. The need for organization in the big markets is not so clearly seen, because those markets are far off, little under stood by growers, and the factors that make for success or failure, good prices ' or bad, are not in evidence to them. Big crops were a factor in the ruin ous prices of a year ago; ao waa war. But it is fairly certain that with bet ter understanding of market conditions by growers and better organization of shipments, there would have been much better prices. Nine growers in ten believe that low prices are due to glutting of markets. Real market gluts of fruit like winter apples, which, can be stored and.held for months, are much rarer than ia commonly supposed, and while citrus fruit cannot be held so long, once it is on the tree, it still has a margin of stability that makes it entirely differ ent from berriesjand soft fruits, which must be handled quickly. Seventy-five per cent of all the so called market gluts of winter fiuit, with falling prices, are probablyprice scares instead. Tbey can be prevented by better organization of growers and produce men, and that will come as soon as the operation of price panics is more widely understood. Under normal circumstances, by skillful organization, storage and sales manship the northwest would probably have made some profit on box apples. But individual growers, under pressure of fright or debt, began consigning their fruit to eastern markets in com petition with growers' associations, and in a little while whatever confidence, existed was destroyed, and prices bad dropped to less than freight charges. One of the big northwestern growers' organizations sent a representative throughthe middle west selling apples, lie found many towns where box fruit had never been handled, and sold lots , of three to ten cars in such places. Fruit dealers paid association prices and began Belling the consumer at moderate margins of profit, to assure steady trade an winter. The association had plenty of fine fruit in its own cold storage to supply demand through these new outlets cre ated by real salesmanship. But aa soon as healthy distribution began, individ ual growers in the northwest would abip in two or three cars that repre sented their whole crop, and sell a lit tle below association prices. In a little while box apples were on the toboggan slide, and the individual growers often got less than freight charges for their fruit. This price waa scare, pure and sim ple. There was no glut in those mar kets. Dealers had been shown how to make money out of box fruit, but the small individual shipments of a few cars, coming in at a slightly lower price, destroyed confidence. The fruit dealer who bad his money invested in box apples did not know how cheaply his competitors would be getting simi lar fruit tomorrow. So ne closed out his holdings and turned to barrel ap ples, or oranges, or something with greater stability. The unorganized grower brings price panic into trie market In this way again and again, pulling prices down to a ruinous level, causing loss to all grow ers and dealers. He sets out with the idea, usually, that he can market bis stuff himself to better advantage than anybedy eUe can do it, and he winds up by selling it at a price five to ten cents below the market, because he lacks the real selling ability and the broad mar ket information that would enable him to dispose of bis fruit at a profit In the produce trade there is also the small, fly-by-night buyer who picks up few cars of stuff in growing districts, ships them to a good market, and sells nickel or dime below the true value in the same way. Together, these two pests cause enor mous losses every year to growers who have organized for orderly marketing pf crops, and to produce Arms which would invest heavily in fruit and truck If tbey could count upon stability. Tbe entire article contains much meat. 1b tha story Mr. Collins, while the name is not mentioned, pays a trio-' ota to the action pf tha local Apple Growers Association in tba campaign of selling 80 carloads of Newtown Pip pins in Portland last year. Wa say again such a story should be especially gratifying to Hood River apple growers, who will demonstrate thia season the efficiency of close co operation among themselves, and their businesslike relations through their as sociation with the marketing eentera of tbe country. . THE HIGHWAY, STATE OR COUNTY? An old fable tells of a shepherd, a youth of little responsibility, who, to relieve the tedium of his daily task, decided to play a joke on the villagers who resided near by. Rushing into tbe village he yelled, "Wolf! Wolf! My flock ia being destroyed!" and it amused bira greatly to see the men and boys, the women and children, grasp clubs and rush to assist in driving sway the marauder. He repeated his practical joke until tbe angry populace "got onto him." Then tbe wolf really came, and the young man's earnest cries for assistance gained him noth ing. In 1914, just before tbe special elec tion was held for the purpose of voting on the 175,000 Columbia river highway bond issue, the people of this county were given to understand that the scenic road would be a state thorough fare. At least, we so interpreted the statements made publicly to the voters, and similar interpretations were made by all citizens who considered the bond issue seriously. But now comes a let ter from State Highway Engineer Can tine informing the county that tbe up keep and maintenance oi tbe road ahall be tbe burden of the county. " Perhaps the burden should be legally and justly ours. At least we have the solace that we will be benefited by the open road. And we must offer our thanks to tbe state for tbe task of tun neling Mitchells Point at a eost of 150.000. But-and it seems to us rsther an important but are pre-eampaign prom ises going to fall into tbe disrepute, of the cties ofjthe irresponsible shepherd boy? It may be that for lack of funds the State Highway Commission cannot at the present time.take over tbe road as a state highway, although such action may be taken later. In fact, it has been pointed out that no roads bave been taken over by the state, but those in touch with the futureplans of the Commission assert that such action is contemplated in the future. If thia be so, the public should be tsken into the confidence of the offi data, that there may be no suspicion of the campaign promises mentioned, SPORTS OF WINTER Never have Hood River people de rived so much pleasure from a snowfall as during the past week. The long stretches of steep streets form ideal ways for coasting. The hearts of boys andgirls have been filled with supreme joy, and old men and women have dropped the cloak of age as they aped in the open air, their beings thrilled by the spirit of adventure. Hundreds of men, women and chil dren enjoyed tbe coasting Sunday af ternoon. Ninth street was lined, the coasters ranging in age from the tiny baby not more than 16 months old to gray haired grandparents, who are ap proaching the three score and 10 year mark. Hood River neonle do not have to travel to the higher altitudes of the mountains to taste the joys of winter sports. Yet the temperature has never been severe. Tbe bite of the frost was just enough Sundsy to give invigora tion, and already the lengthening days foretell the approach of early spring flowers. FIRE INSURANCE RATES While fire insurance companies have raised the rates of rural property in all northwestern districts, the Hood River valley included, the reason being given that rural fires have increased to auch a degree in the past year tnat tne in crease in rates is necessary, r.o in crease is noted in the rates on property in the city of Hood River. Local fire insurance agents 'declare that this is gratifying. Hood River is well protected by one of the best water systems in the state of Oregon. Secondly, the local owners of proper ty have displayed a great care in guarding against possible fires. Last, but not least, no town of the size in the country has a more efficient volunteer fire department. A COUNTY OF PEACE Hood River county holds a record for the peacefulness of its population. Since June 23, 1908, when the county was established, but one man bas been before the courts to answer to a charge of shedding , human blood. Geo. Rob bins waa arraigned and convicted on a charge of the murder of Emeline Cas toe, the crime having been committed June 26, 1909. Having been found guilty he was sentenced to life impris onment on September 13, 1909. Ouring the years of 1914 and 1915 the most serious charges recorded on the criminal docket of the circuit eourt have been for assault and battery. Truly, Hood River is a community of peace and contentment. CONSIDER YOUR BOYHOOD A number of complaints have been made aa to the coasting of boys down the steep city streets. Do not take snsp judgment on the youths ; consider your own boyhood. Tbe enow will last but a hsort time, ao submit to a little sacrifice on you owa part that tba boys and girl may enjoy the abort However, by the above, via denot unction any recklessness en the part of coasters. The leu frequented aide treats should be used aa much as pos sible, and extreme care should be taken to prevent accidents. Soma kind of traffic rulea ahould be enforced among tbe coasters, themselves, on Ninth street We suggest that everyone pull ing a sled up the bill keep to the right hand side of the street instead of scat tering over the entire road, thus mak ing possible collisions. Don't just write one letter, but a number of good, sane epistles descrip tive of tbo wonders and opportunities of Oregon. , . Watch your cider and do not allow it tolbecome "hard." Fermented bever ages are taboo in Oregon. The registration books are now open. It is suggested that voters get busy. Stanton Offers Library Aid "If the Hood River county library ia closed this year," says County Judge Stanton, "it will be for no lack of an offer of funda by tba county eourt I have been teld that members of tbe city council fear that because of lack of funds it will be necessary to open the doors of the library only a portion of the time eacb week. If any addi tional money ia needed, the county will put up dollar tor dollar with the city council for expenses that may be in curred." Citisens of the city and members of the council have expressed dissatisfac tion with the county court for failure, as is alleged, to levy a tax for library maintenance in proportion with that of tbe city. While the council expresses a willingness to contribute liberally to the library, it is pointed out that prop erty in the city is taxed by both city and county levies, and that the city taxpayer ia thus doubly kssessed. Comparative data as to city and coun ty levies for tbe past two years have been as follows: 1914 city, from gen eral fund, 22,100; county, appropriated from general fund, $2,600; 1915 city, by a apecial tax levy, 12279.98; county, by tax levy, $1800. FARMERS ADVISED TO USE PRINTING The Oregon farmer can swell his an nual receipts by using good printing snd by occasional advertising in the weeklies of bis county, aaya D. W Morton, dean of the new school of commerce of the university of Oreeon. A farm letterhead should carry the name of the farm, the name of the owner, the location of the farm, and perhaps a small picture of some fea ture ot me place, says Dean Morton. who regards the farmer as a business man with a substantial investment up on which he should make every effort to pay interest. - "It gives a farmer a certain business standing if he has a neat letterhead of good stock, and it improves the value or bis farm to have a name and some thing of an individuality," he said. "mere is some initial expense in hav iug a picture taken and a cut made, but the puplisher of the nearest coun. try paper will attend to the details and aiterward will do the printing reason ably. "If the farmer raises hishclaas ani mals, his letterhead may contain a pic ture oi a prize animal vim Ita record; or it be has a stock farm, a picture of a ouncn oi biock ; or u ne haa the best nouse or barn in the neighborhood. picture of that ; or a picture of a grove or a stream is usually effective on sta tionery. There are few Oregon farms not worth naming, and few that do not provide something worth a permanent picture. "Advertising rates are very low in Oregon country papers, and a farmer may at a cost of from 10 to 50 cents may sell a horse, a second-hand ma chine, or some other thing about the piace ne does not heed by putting i small advertisement in his weekly pa per. A farmer a advertising should of course conform to the best advertising standards: It should be very definite ana ansoiuteiy trutbiui. PORTI ANDERS WILL JOURNEY TO SNOW The snuwnelds on the northeast base of Mount Hood will be the mecca for two parties next week. On Tuesday afternoon the Portland Snowahoe club members will journey to their winter lodge located near Cloud Cap Inn. The party will travel from this city to rarkdale by special train over the line ot the Mount Hood Railway Company. At Parkdale they will be met hv sleighs. rortiana I. M. U.

The Y. M. C. A. men will also travel to Parkdale Dy way or tbe Mount Hood Railway line, which will on next Wednesdsv operate a special shopping train for the Denent oi upper valley ranchers. Frank Pendergast Badly Hurt Frsnk Pendereast. the son of Mr and Mrs. M. Pendergast, of the Pine Grove district, was severely injured last week wben attending to his duties ss an employe of tbe Portland Terimnal Co. Young Mr. Pendereaat waa struck on tbe head by an open door of a re frigerator car. He waa thrown under the wheels of the trsin and iniuriea . suiting in the loss of an arm were sus tained.

H. S. Caughey, co-operative weather observer, reports for Tuesday night a minimum tempera ture of three degrees above aero. De spite the extreme eold a fall of fine snow of about four inches prevailed. On Tuesday afternoon, at the sugges tion of J. A. Epping, a crew of men and boys endeavored to flood the Co lumbia slough, the surface of which was covered with a blanket of snow, with water from the outlet of the Ap ple Growers Association water system. The water, however, fro re in the im provised flume and made the task an impossible one. Ton of Fowls Shipped A shipment of ducks and chickens, shipped from the Oak Grove ranch of H. C.

There Is only ena way to cure deafness, and that la by constitutional remeeie Deafnras is caused by an Inflamed condition of the mu eoue lining of tha Eustachian Tube. When this tube la Inflamed you have a rambling sound or imperfect hearing, and when It Is entirely closed. Deafness Is the result, and anleas tbe Inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi tion, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine eases out of tan are caused by Catnrrli. which U nothing but an inflamed condltlun ot the mucoue surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any ease of Deafneea (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. CHENEY CO., Toledo, Ohio.
