THOMAS K. LILL
GETS RECOGNITION
The city of Denver. Colo., during the
past year has created a broadcast
interest because of the success ofthe
commission form of government
Denver's new system has been worked
out by Thomas K.lLill.lson of J. W
Lill, of this city, who has devoted his
life to the study of municipal manage
ment. Mr. Lill. .who has written sev
eral books Ion municipal government,
visited his father here last year.

morning was an editorial, commending
the .Denver system andlurging that
other municipalites follow the example
set by the Colorado metropolis.
RESIGNATION RUMORS
DENIED BY STANTON
Rumors that have circulated through
out the valley to the effect that County
Judge Stanton was planning to leave
Hood Kiver and that he would resign
his office have been denied by Judge
Stanton. He declares that he has never
contemplated any such action. The
rumors may have gained their incep
tion from some talk of Judge Stanton
moving from his present residence on
State street to other quarters.
Ihe reports of Judge atanton s con
templated resignation had gained such
credence in the country that aspirants
or appointment to succeed the county
official were seeking endorsement.
Judge R C Glanville, lormerly a
member of the Nebraska supreme court
who now owns a West Side orchard,
was mentioned for the place, and an
element of valley'men were endeavor
ing to get P. A. Massee, of Willow
Plat, to try for the judgeship.
VETERAN EXHIBITS
OLD MUSTER ROLL
Among the most interesting docu
ments that have been recently left at
the Glacier office were some orginal
muster rolls of Company H., 14th Wis
consin Volunteer Infantry, which were
brought into the office last week by
Thomas Goss, member of Canby 1'oet,
G. A. R., who served during the Civil
war in the Wisconsin company. The
rolls, of 1862 and 1865, were made out
by Comrade Goss.
Mr. Goss takes a great interest in
discussing the events of history in Civil
war days. He plans the coming year
on writing a number of short Civil war
sketches for the readers of the Glacier.

lln closing session! here Wednesday
of last week the 31st annual convention
of the Oregon State Horticultural Soci
ety went on record at decidedly op
posea io proposal that have been ad
vanced at different Northwestern fruit
eentera to lower the standard of grad
ing rules, a resolution, adapted Wed
nesday afternoon, recommeded that the
strict rulea that have heretofore pre-
vaiiea De maintained.
The Society launched a plan that will
lead to a propaganda in Oregon for a
greater consumption of fruita at home.
The statement was made that Oregon's
entire output of fruits, if citizens of
the atate would consume applet and
other fruits proportionate to the rate
of consumption tinl Seattle, would be
eaten annually by home folks. Next
year, under the auspices of the Horti
cultural Society, a publicity bureau
will be established and irrocerv stores.
hotels'and the?general public will be
educated to adopt the slogan of, "Ore
gon Fruit Products First." Secretary
Hinton waa instructed to appoint a
committee to take charge of the pro
posed work, which was suggested in i
report of R. W. Johnson, of Corvallis,
chairman of the publicity committee of
1916. Fruit sales azenciea will be
asked to make appropriations to aBSiBt
in me worn.
Sensations of the day's meetings
were provided in an address by A. ti.
llarris.'tpecial writer.ofa Portland
newspaper, who, enibelishmg the topic,
"Publicity, Good and Bad," suggested
sweeping reforms, ranging from cook
books to metropolitan dailies.
Mr. Harria opened his address by
reading.an: advertisement of the U
W. R. & N. Co., calling attention to
the recent National apple show held at
Spokane. The advertisement, as read
by. Mr. Harris, enumerated some doz
ens of items of entertainment to be
provided at the ancle show, the distri
bution of apple pies, activities of apple
land princesses and other carnival lea
tures, including the distribution of an
apple pie to each visitor. So contra
wise was this spirit of levity with the
ideas of the Portland newspaper man
that he characterized the advertise
ment at the meanest publicity he had
seen in the country in many years.
, "Spokane has no right to call the
show the National apple show and fol
low it with such publicity. Ihis organ'
ization should prepare a resolution
urging against Spokane calling a street
carnival an apple show.
Mr. Harria presented some half do
en copies of the Spokane Spokesman'
Review, published during apple show
week, and in which he declared but a
single constructive article, of 12 inches
in length, waa published.
"Two hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars of clean money," he said, "was
taken in at Spokane over the name of
the apple.
Mr. Harria then touched on the bad
publicity of cook books issued by
church organizations, displaying to his
audience a copy ol such a publication
issued by the Mount Tabor Methodist
church, of Portland.
"Out of 259 recipes, signed by piom
inent church women of Portland, but
14 deal with the fruits of Oregon," he
said.
While numerous good books on cul
ture and propagation of apples are
available, Mr. Harris regretted the
lack of apple culture of a human inter
est nature.
"I know of at least 100 viewpoints
or angles," he said, "from which a
man may touch on the apple. 1 have
written storiea from 52 of these view
points, and hope to touch on the other
48."
In hia pleas for sweeping reform Mr.
Harris suggested indirectly a censor
ship by fruit men of the stories writ
ten by correspondents of metropolitan
papers. He read a Hood River dis
patch to the Oregonian, reciting prob
able frost damage at the time of the
November cold weather.
"If I were a fruit grower," he said,
"I would take care that nothing of
that kind ever got out of town again.
Aside from whether it is a fact or not,
it is decidedly bad publicity."
Other addresses of Wednesday's ses
sions were delivered by Robert C.
Paulus, of Salem, president elect for
next year; A. C. Allen, of Medford.
horticultural commissioner for south
ern Oregon; A. 8. Cordley, director of
the Oregon experiment station, and
Prof. J. R. Magness, of the Oregon
Agricultural College.
Mr. Allen, who told of the evolution
of orchard inspection and law enforce
ment in Jackson county, elicited marked
attention. He told that in the past
Jackson county had expended as much
as $18,000 per year on inspection, and
that the investment was considered a
wise one. The present yearly approp
riation, he stated, was $8,000.
"To have a strict enforcement of
laws," said Mr. Allen, "a fruit com
munity must have the cooparation of
its growers, its business men and its
officers. Of course, the provision made
by horticultural laws for the confisca
tion of diseased trert is an aid to the
inspector. But we found another
means of carrying out our plana. In
our county, at is the case elsewhere, I
suppose, we assess land set to apple
and pear trees a good deal higher than
ordinary agricultural land. Our as
sessor had been assessing each tree at
an approximate value of $10. But we
found that the greatest menace from
disease came from the little backyard
orchard. These trees formerly were
not being assessed. We put the prop
osition up to the assessor, 'Why should
we who made a business of orcharding
be assessed on our trees, when those
who were merely playing with them,
were escaping payment of taxes on
their backyard trees?' Our assessor
saw the point, and every tree in our
county was assessed at the rate of $10
downward. The plan worked beauti
fully and eliminated numerous disease
breeders."
Mr. Allen said that southern Oregon
orchard districts, because of their close
ness to the older fruit districts of Cali
fornia, were more open to disease pests
than other sections of the state. "In
other words," he said, "you people
here get your disease pests only after
we have had them. They come to you
by the southern Oregon route usually."
Under the constitution and by laws
of the Horticultural Society the formal
election of officers must be held in
Portland, and while it is assured by
members that officers named Wednes
day will serve next year, their choice
must be confirmed at a later meeting
in Portland.
Stopped Children's Croup Cough
"Three weeks ago two of my children
began choking and coughing, and I eaw
they were having an attack of croup,"
writes Billie Mayberry, Eckert, Ga. "1
got a bottle of Foley's Honey and Tar
and gave them a dose before bfltime
and soon their cough stopped and they
tell asleep. Next morning their cough
and all signs of croup gone." Foley's
Honey and Tar Is a standard low-priced
remedy for colds, bronchitis, la grippe
coughs. Sold everywhere.
(From The Glavier of December 23,189$)
Hood River makes no pretenaiona to
being a prune growing section, but 30
tons of dried prunes nave been shipped
from here ao far this season. The
Davidson Fruit Co. shipped their sec
ond caiload of dried Italian prunea last
Monday.
Mrs. Geo. Crowell gives a recipe for
making a dyspeptic's coffee that is bet
ter than any or the health drinks ad
vertised. The only objection that can
be found with it ia that it is too cheap
anything cheap, you know, is not
considered worth much. Following is
the recipe : Take two quarts bran, one
cup syrup, well mixed, and then brown
same as coffee. After it ia browned,
add two beaten eggs and set back in
the oven to dry. It is then resdy fur
use. It makes a drink that will be
preferred by many to Jthe real coffee.

C.E. Markham has accomulshed good
work on the road through the Methodist
lane. He started a subscription paper
and eot nearly enough volunteer work
to finish grading and graveling that
piece of road, which neretofore in win
ter time has been about the worst in
the valley.
Mr. Robert Leasure. of Mount Hood.
waa in town on Wednesday. He reports
everything quiet in his locality, the
young men of the neighborhood being
mostly at worn away irum nome.
Chris Dethman's well was a failure.
After digging 50 feet and being out
$50, he. came onto a big rock and had
to give it up.
It would appear from the action
taken by some of the fruit growers
last Saturday that the feasibility of
doing away with the Hood River Fruit
Growers' Union and organizing under
a new name is being discussed. It
may be that the old union has outlived
its usefulness and that an organization
with a new name would draw more
patronage and be more successful, but
it is very doubtful. The union has
been a success from the start, and be
ing managed every year by good busi
ness talent on business principles, has
grown steadily in favor. During the
past year it shipped CO per cent of the
strawberry crop, and there is no reason
why it should not do even better the
coming season.
Since our last issue Hon. E. L.
Smith has received one gold medal,
two bronze medals -and four diplomas
awarded to Hood River valley by the
Oregon Industrial exposition. The
medals bear the following inscription:
"Awarded to Hood River valley for
best association exhibit (gold medal),
Awarded to flood River valley best
winter apples. (Bronze medal) Bet
Fall apples." On reverse side'there is
an engraving of the exposition build
ing. Three of the diplomas were for
apple exhibits and the fourth for second
best building stone from the quarry of
Wilson Winans. We congratulate our
fruit growers on receiving all the first
premiums awarded to apples at the
Portland exhibition. And this is not
all. Residents of Michigan and other
states of the middle west have fre
quently contended that their apples
were of superior flavor to those grown
in this section, but Mr. Smith is in re
ceipt of a h ttcr from Supt. Dosch stat
ing there were no apples at the Omaha
exposition superior in flavor and tex
ture than those sent by him from his
Beulah Land orchard and that a medal
was awarded him. These evidences of
superiority of our fruits should encour
age growers to take better care of their
orchards. Not less than $10,000 was
lost to our orchardiets the past season
by neglect in spraying and cultivation,
and wn aie glad to learn that our horti
culturists are determined that this con
dition of affairs will nut occur again.
