HOOD PARK If the bill recently submitted by officials of the United States park sys tem to Senator Chamberlain, who was asked lo introduce it in congress, had been passed by both houses and had become a law, it would have oeen little short of calamity for Hood River coun ty as well as for a vast country to the southeast of Mount Hood's bare. The proposed boundaries extended down to Parkdale station. It took in Lost Lake, and as was stated in last week's Glacier, more than 1,000,000,000 feet of saleable timber in this county would have been included. This timber would have been bottled for all time. Under existing federal laws, pounties receive 35 per cent of the proceeds of such tim ber sales for road building. Thus Hood River county would have lost the sum of more than $3,r0,000. The hunting that is now open to all local citizens in the fall would have been lost, for one is not allowed to carry firearms of any sort in a national park. Fishing would be permitted, but the fisherman would violate severe laws should he chop down the smallest tree to build a shack or to secure timbers to bridge a stream. The forestry department at once saw the lack of cemprehension on the part of the framers of the hill, and a sub stitute was offered. The second bill seems to find almost universal favor. Those proposing the first bill realized that its passage would be a blunder. The new bill proposes a very small parkage area, including strips along the Columbia Kiver highway, the roads and streams around Lost Lake and the upper base of Mount Hood itself. Thus the county will benefit by the prestige . of having a national park on its borders and at the same time derive for road building its portion of the proceeds of timber sales. DO YOU WANT FOREST ROADS? Rvery citizen of Hood Rivr is inter ested in a. letter just received from the Kugenc Commercial club asking that the local club assist in getting the na tional congress to pass H. R. bill No. 10400, introduced in the HouBe by Mr Taylor, of Colorado. This bill appropriates $1,000,000 an nually for 10 years for the purpose of constructing and maintaining roads in national forests, upon request from proper officers of state, territory or county, when these roads are necessary fur the use and development of re sources upon which the communities within and adjacent to the national forests are dependent, provided that the community so asking shall enter into an agreement equitable to the United States, cooperating with the United States in constructing and maintaining such roads. There ia a billion feet of timber in Hood River county lorest reserves which will meunjiti the'euurse of time S350.000 to the road fund of Hood River county, but it may take a hundred or twojof years to gctthis money. In the meantime the demand for roads is im mediate. The bill provides that the community holding such reserves shall not receive over 10 per cent, or $35,000, out of the funds provided, (luring the 10 years. The way to get this bill passed is for Hood River people to write any senator or congressman in the eastern states whom they may know, asking their favorable consideration of this bill, and asking that they listen kto western congressmen when they press its passage. Do not write long letters, but ask their serious attention when the bill comes up. Roads being a great question with us, here is a chance for SSTi.OOO. l et's get it. BETTER SPRAYING Because of the use of the ward in de scribing laborers employed to break a strike and of its repugnant meaning in terms descriptive of certain diseases of animals, the word "scab" as applied to the defacing marks cnused on apples by fungus will be taboo among fruit growers and market men. The fungus growth on apples very often leaves a mark similar to a limb rub or russet- ing. The elimination and future preven tion of the disease, which prevents many fine specimens of fruit from being packed in the two first grades, extra fancy and fancy, has been made the slogan of all growers of the valley. Its prevalence in orchards in past years is said lo have been caused by poor and improper spraying. The local branch of the Oregon Experiment Sta tion and the Apnle Growers Associa tion are both cooperating with the growers in a campaign of education for better spraying, and it is predicted that fungus marks the coming season will be very scarce. During the worst of past moist growing seasons, when the disease has made the worst in roads, growers who practiced careful, systematic spraying, have harvested crops 90 per cent perfect. Such meetings as that held at Pine Grove hall last Friday will go far to ward causing growers to comprehend the value of better spraying. The art icle, begun this week, by Sam G. Campbell, is very beneficial, as is that of th experiment station appearing in full a tbia week's isaue of the Glacier. FARMERS AND CHURCHBS The activitiea of rural churches in Hood River county brings comment of commendation from the Oregon Farm er. After praising Rev. H. O. Perry for his efforts in bringing about the afternoon sermon, the Oregon Farmer says: Another item of newa confirms the opinion that the farmers and the churches are getting together. They have been holding an institute at the Pine Grove Methodist Episcopal church, and Ibis again ia near Hood Kiver The grange, the orchardist, the school, the Sunday school and the church are welcomed on the program. In lact, me fruit srower and the church goer seem to te one and the same in the Pine Grove district. The Woman's club musical depart ment continues its meritorious activi ties. To that true appreciation of mu sic that everyone has they are adding locally a knowledge that will render an assistance to the appreciation. The Saturday night violin program was full of instruction. Oregon is burdened with bunglesome laws. The provisions of statutes are bad, and attempted betterments, it seems, have made them worse. For instance, glimpse our tai laws and our road laws. The number of registered voters to date is comparatively small. How many will have failed to perform this duty by April 18? But little more than amonth remains. Getjbusy. , Cheer up, you people of the Upper Valley, spring will soon be opening on you, and your little part of the world will be a paradise on earth. Clip that letter from Secretary Lov- ell, of the State Tax Commission, and paste it'away, in order that you will not go amiss in paying your taxes. Praise to our "White Wings." They are again getting the steels in a pre sentable condition. HUMAN PROPOSES BETTER ROAD LAWS Hampered by the present obsolete and conflicting road laws, the good roads movement is in much danger, be lieves County Commissioner Rufus C. Holman, and as president of the State Asosciation of County Judges and Com missioners he has written each county court in Oregon, urging the recodifica tion of the laws, according to the Ore gonian. He suggests that he be authorized to appoint a committee of five members to draft proposed changes that they may be presented to the legislature this year. "By a recodification of the road laws," writes Mr. Holman, "I do not mean to suggest that any new and un tried system of road establishment should be proposed or adopted. It is, however, my purpose and intention that all the present laws should be, so far as possible, harmonized, simplified, amended and repleaed to the end that the important part of county business can be transacted in an intelligent and businesslike manner." "From the experience had in Multno mah county," Mr. Holman contends, "it would appear that the recent efforts to enlarge the scope of the road laws has served to confuse everyone as to the proper procedure in road matters." H.NS, Fl RS AM FEATHERS H"H-H-H-4"M-H"1"H"1"1"H"I"H"1"H Fifty per cent of the China pheas ants of Hood River valley and more than 75 per cent of the quail being propogated here were killed by the re cent cold weather, according to O. H Rhoades, one of the trustees of the Hood River County Game Protective Association. "Hawks caught great numbers of the quail even where they were being fed by ranchers," says Mr. Rhoades. "On my place 1 was caring for a Hock of 50 quail, of which hawks caught all but five. Sportsmen say that of the pheasants left the sex proporton of rive roosters to one hen exists, and it is likely that efforts will be made to secure a short open season on male pheasants during the fall months. The Oregon Sportsman, published quarterly by the State Fish and Game Commission, has become a real attrac tion for those who enjoy hunting and fishing. The publication is not a mere bulletin of the activities of the Com mission, but under the editorship and management of Carl D. Shoemaker, W. L. Finley and George Palmer Putnam, it is taking its place as a magazine of merit. Get the last issue, that of Jan uary, and read it, if you are interested in the wild game and the fishing to be had in the streams of Oregon. If the return of the true, native rob ins from their annual winter pilgrimage in the south can be taken as a (nan winter is broken here. Several of the handsome red-breasts, which nest ,here in large numbers each season, have come back to their old haunts. The survivors of the thousands of Alaska or mountain robins that came here to winter have disappeared in the last few days, having left presumably on the journey to the far north. Two geese of the flock near the city pumping station on the Columbia river stood on the ice resting. While resting, the weather truned cold, and the geese froze fast to the ice. Frantically they flapped their wings and squawked, but they were securely trapped. Tired from their exertions, they squatted down to wait. The ice broke up. Fas tened to a large cake, they started down the river. The cake turned over, and the geese were drowned. This story is vouched for by employes at the pumping station Wenathee Ad vance. The salmon trout are running. If you don't believe it, look at the win dow of E. A. Franz Co. E. A. Franz may te termed as "The early bird fish erman. He was out last week wading in a foot of snow.

Camp bell, chief inspector of the Apple Grow ers Association, has given the question of (praying his closest attention. Working in conjunction with a number of growers, Mr. Campbell has observed experiments that should be of the greatest value to all growers ot the district. The chief inspector has pre pared a report on his investigations for the Association. The report was re cently read at a meeting of growers in the Pine Grove district. Because of length it will be impossi ble to print the entire report in a single issue of the Glacier, it is therefore suggested that growers clip the por tions of articles as they appear, in or der that they may preserve the direc tions and recommendations, as drawn from the results of experiments' as a whole. While Mr. Campbell's report gave the names of growers cooperating with him, these have been deleted from the published article. Those interested, however, may secure these names from the Association. Mr. Campbell's repoit follows: In presenting the following informa tion for your consideration and benefit, I desire to say that the investigations cover 50 orchards in Hood River valley. In each case the number of sprays, time applied and the fungicides used are stated in the various exhibits, also the strength which is used in each one of the fungicides. 'I he dormant spray means the fall application of Bordeaux. The spray refe red to as delayed dormant means the spray which is usually applied as the buds begin swelling, which in some instances is extended by the growers after the buds have opened out and the leaves advanced quite conspicuously. The percentages of scab given are at thinning time. The estimates are furnished by the growers and in my judgment are about correct as nearly as could be deter mined by estimate without actual counts. The main object of this information is first, to show that where the great est number of sprays were used, the cleanest crops were obtained; second, to show that certain omissions in spraying were more serious than oth ers; third, that certain fungicides gave better results than others. First, I will give you the number of sprays and data in reference to each individual orchard. Theseare classified in exhibits all growers who followed a spraying program which was alike, are classified under "Exhibit A." The numbers after Exhibit A and R indi cate the number of growers who fol lowedthe same system. These exhibits run from "A" to "S." In some ex hibits there are half a dozen orjmore, and in some there is only one example of the spraying method. Where there are more than one the average percent age ot scab at thinning time for the entire number isjgiven. I will now proceed to give you the program, followed by the different ex hibits, and later furnish "observations and conclusions: Exhibit A-l: Fall Bordeaux, De layed lime-sulphur 1-9. Delayed dor mant, semi-dormant, pink, calyx and 10 days. 0 sprays, 5 per cent fungus. Exhibit B-l : Fall Bordeaux, lime sulphur 1-10.

It seems from a close study and anal ysis of exhibits A to P, that it may be helpful to the growers of Hood River valley, to point out comparisons of these analyses, showing the value ot a certain number of sprays and also to point out the loss from the omission of any one of the important sprays. Later on 1 will speak of the comparative value of different fungicides as evi denced in these observations and re sults. Exhibit A gave the highest percent age, consisting of 6 sprays, fall Bor deaux, delayed dormant lime-sulphur 1-9, semi-dormant, pink, calyx and 10 days lime-sulphur 1-33, showing only 5 per cent fungus at thinning time, the cleanest crop, with one exception, so far as these results show, namely, ex hibit F-l, which 1 will analyze specific ally later. Exhibit B, consisting of 5 sprays, fall Bordeaux, delayed dormant, pink calyx and 10 days, 10 per cent fungus, the semi-dormant being omitted. Exhibit C, 4 sprays,delayed.dormant, pink, calyx and 10 days, 5 per cent of fungus, fall Bordeux and semi-dormant omitted. Exhibit D, 5 sprays, fall Bordeaux, delayed dormant, pink, calyx and 10 days, the semi-dormant, omitted, fun gus 17) per cent. Attention is called to the increased fungus in exhibit D where 5 sprays were applied, as com pared to exhibit C where 4 sprays were applied, that atomic suplhur was used in th calyx in exhibit D. Exhibit E, 5 sprays, fall Bordeaux, delayed dormant, pink, calyx and 10 days, 15 per cent fungus. Comparison should be made with exhibit C, 4 sprays, showing 5 per cent fungus, at tention being called to the fact that in exhibit E atomic sulphur was used in : the pink and calyx. Exhibit F, 4 sprays, fall Bordeaux, pink, calyx and 10 days. Delayed dor I mant and semi-dormant being omitted, I funaus 71 ner cent. Comparison should be made with exhibit C, where 6 sprays were used, attention to the difference is called for the reason that in exhibit F the grower applied an extremely earlv nink. usintr a larce Quantity of Ispray per tree, fungus showing only 5 i per cent, thus decreasing the average j per cent of fungus in exhibit F 7 belew the normal average. ; Exhibit G, 3 sprays, fall Bordeaux, Dink and calvx. 20 per cent, fur us. belayed, semi-dormant and 10 dayi I. c Is 0 H : i 2 .10 ! 2 :U ' 2 fO ! 2 1WM lllll) lull 1WI2 mu llll.')

Heretofore about 200,000 boxes oi apples have been shipped annually from Seattle, while Astoria has had a scant 2,000 boxes. .The first agricultural council in Was co county and, it is believed, the first in the state, met in The Dalles Febru ary 17, in the courthouse Jfor the pur pose of discussing the plans of County Agricultural Agent Sab in for the com ing year. The council is composed of leading farmers from various sections of the county and representatives of the various dairy, fruit, grain and veg etable interests. The council met for the first time to plan a permanent organization in an effort to solve agricultural problems in a manner which will be beneficial to all. Every important grange and other farmers' organizations in the county are represented in the council, which will meet frequently. Officers will be elected and plans for a permanent or ganization will be perfected at the April meeting.

The conditions are such that it is not so much a question of price in buying as it h to secure the goods at all. The great advance in prices in all lines and the general scarcity of merchandise, is one of the reasons that we made this trip this Spring. We know that by visiting the markets personally, with the cash, we can secure better merchandise at a less price than it is possible to do otherwise. We intend to see that our patrons get the best prices and the best merchandise that can be secured anywhere.
