What would you think of your local grocer if he tried to sell you any apples other than those grown in Hood River ? Hood River has a creamery, supported wholly by cream from Hood River Valley. Experts have pronounced the butter put out by the creamery as second to none in the state. Your Grocer Is Not Handling This Butter Why ? ' The large butter manufacturers in Portland are waging war on country cream eries. They have made an unnatural market. They have forced the cream eries to buy butter-fat for a higher price than they sell the made butter for. The country creamery can't do this and live. They must have some differ ential to cover the cost of manufacture. Until the recent unfair market the Hood River grocery man has sold his butter at a profit to him of from 12 to 17c a roll. We asked him to cut his profit until the market grew normal. He refused. Why? Outside creameries are dangling a prize before his eyes. They are offering him cheaper butter and a bigger profit. Do you as a consumer fafn?"ffo. The farmer is paying freight to Portland on his butter, which should be sold here. You are paying the freight on Portland made butter to Hood River. Is this just to either? Jfo. In order to give our patrons who wish to be loyal to a home-made Hood River product the opportunity.to buy this article, the Creamery will retail butter at wholesale prices,for cash, at the Creamery. You will save the grocer's profit for yourself the farmer will'get more for his cream-he will save the freight to Portland and the commission for selling his butter. It will be a healthier condition all around. We need YOUR help and support. THE HOOD RIVER CREAMERY The Best Christmas Present Is to be found at the Heights Greenhouse, phone 3393.

Sabin, trustee, haa com pleted his work in connection with the settling of affairs of Wood's grocery at Udell and returned Saturday to bis home in Portland. Gordon Haskins, who has been known to residents of Odell as one engaged in business for himself or employed in one of the stores of the community for quite a number of jears, secured tbe real es tate and stock of groceries and will continue in business in tbe building. The war in Europe came home to orebardista of Odell recently when word was received stating that a ship laden with apples bad been torpedoed while crossing the Atlantic bound for Eng land. While being brought in this way to a realization of tbe existence of war when compared to the awful conse quences which most be felt by those actualy engaged in war, thia aeema al most trivial. To the newspaper correspondent is given the pleasure of writing of all that is cheerful and tbat brings happi ness and pleasure tbe coming of guests, the going on journeys, improve ments in homes and property, the dawning of new livea and tbe sadder story of tbe going out of life. Today with the keenest regret we must tell of the passing away of Mrs. J; G. Ogden, who has been for the past several months seriousy ill at her home in Madison, Wis. To those whose privi lege it was to know the beauty of char acter, the kindly deeds, the personal charm of Mrs. Ogden, pleasant mem ories will ever linger through sadness and a feeling of personal loss hovers over all because oi her absence in ac customed places. To the sons, who have been near their mother and ren deerd such assistance as was possible, to the sister who ministered with lov ing hands, to all the relatives who are lonely today, friends in Odell extend sincere sympathy. Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Cutler, who were married November 25, are now on the homeward iourney, though perhaps two months will have passed when they ar rive in Odell, as they will visit broth ers of Mr. Cutler in the east before going to California, where they will stop for a time at the home of Mr. Cutler's parents and sister.

Did you take in the big atock show at Portland? No? Well, you should have. Warren Miller did and he says it was a big success. Mr. Miller.didn't bring home any of the blue ribbon prize winners. Perhaps Warren thought that $21,600 was more than he wanted to pay, so left it to to the Seattle man. Frankton'a loss was Seattle's gain maybe. Dan Garrabrant's new house is Hear ing completion. He thinks he will be able to occupy it by the first of the new year. The Clifton hill is almost impassa ble. After the mail carrier has to stop going over it somebody will begin to howl. Toe late to lock the atable after the horse is stolen, better howl now. The report is being handed around that aomething will soon be doing on the Rutbton bill, but tbat report baa been circulated ao often tbat we are going to wait and see. In last week's Frankton items we said Roy Rash was principal of the Frankton school and waa having Borne needed work done. With all due re spect to Mr. Rssb and hia ability to fill tbe position of principal, it waa just a mistake. Miss Pesrl Scobee is tha principal and to her is due the credit of having tbe work done. Mistakes don't count for much ; if they did we would all be rich. Barrett P.-T. Meeting The Barrett Parent-Taecher Associa tion will meet at the school house Fri day evening at 8 o'clock.
