Low boiling point do it -the first links in a
continuous chain of boilinj points. Low boiling
points (or easy starting, medium boiling point
for quick and smooth acceleration, and high
boiling points for power and mileage.
Red Crown is straight distilled gasoline.
Hence there's a continuous chain of boiling
points, gradually rising from low to high.
Mixtures cannot have a continuous chain of '
boiling points. That's why mixtures cannot be
as good motor fuel as pure straight-run gaso
line. And that's also why the gravity test for
gasoline is worthless gravity tells nothing at
all about boiling points, the only real test of
gasoline quality.

ASS'N MEMBERSHIP GROWERS MUST FUR-
SAVED MUCH MONEY i NISH ACCOMODATIONS
Due to the organized cooperation of
the membership of the Apple Growera
Association and the inauguration of
new methods of cultivation that have
been suggested and worked out by the
local branch Of the Oregon experiment
station.according to Sam G. Campbell,
the increased cost of producine apples
for 1917 aa compared with 1914. the
year the great European war began,
has been negligible, except for the
items of wrapping paper and box
nails. Naila have increased from $3.25
to $5 per keg. Paper has increased to
such an extent that growers are not
likely to wrap their lower grades and
off varieties this season.
According to figures that have been
compiled by Mr. Campbell and Irl R.
Blagg, his assistant at the Association
warehouses, the prices of spray mater
ials and boxes remain at about the
same figures that prevailed in 1914.
An increase in labor of about 10 per
cent is expected this season.
Formerly the apple grower received
no return for the clean cultivation
practiced in orchards. Now, following
experiments of representative growers
and experiment station experts, apple
growers harvest clover, alfalfa and
other such crops from their orchards.
Cows and hogs are'raised, and a neat
profits derived from orchard cultiva
tion. -
"But for the Association in antici
pating the needs of the growers and
making long term contracts, these
prices for 1917," says Mr. Campbell,
"would be materially increased. The
Association in this wise has saved its
members thousands of dollars."
"If the strawberry growers of Hood
River apply for enlisted laborers under
the plana inaugurated by the Oregon
Argtcultural College and expect to get
them," savs Mrs. C A. Bell, who
with Mrs. J. E. Ferguson has been ap
pointed by Mrs. W. F. Lara way, presi
dent of the Woman's club, on a com
mittee to investigate the conditions on
ranches of such applicants for labor,
"they must show us conclusively that
they will provide comfortable quarters
for the workers."
Mrs. Bell declares that Hood River
ore hard is ts deserve keenest criticism
for their failure in former years to
properly care for their transient har
vest hands.
The appointment of the local com
mittee came from instructions of Mrs.
C. H. Castner, president offthe State
Federation, who has written all club
presidents asking for similar commit
tees in all parts of the state. The
committees will make their reports to
county agents or other similar author
ities.

ASSOCIATION WORKS
FOR FULL VOTE
With a corps of volunteer . clerks
busy last Thursday night, two Beta of
postal cards were addressed to the
voters of Hood River county, urging
them to attend the polls on June 4 and
vote for the $6,000,000 road bonding
act. One set of the cards was mailed
at once, while the other will follow on
the eve of election.
4 "The government is calling for mili
tary roads be Datriotic and vote for
the bonds," is the message borne by
one of the postals. The other card
tells eight of the principal reasons and
needs for a successful vote on the
bonding act.
"We are endeavoring to make June
4 a red letter day for Hood River,"
says C. N. Ravlin, secretary of the
Hood River County Good Roads Asso
ciation, which was formed several
weeks ago for the primary purpose of 1 m,

already an assured fact that Hood
River county will go practically unani
mous for the issue, but there is a fear
that orchardists, who are especially
busy with their crops because of the
late spring, will fail to attend the
polls. To prevent such a contingency
is now our chief work, and we are go
ing to devote every moment between
now and June 4 tojgctting lall citizens
to the polls."

Association Distributes $100,000
Except on the varieties of Spitzen
burgs and Newtowns, the Apple Grow
ers Association has closed its pools.on
the 1916 apple crop, the total tonnage
of which was just a little short of
1,000,000 boxes. The final returns on
these two varieties will be delayed be
cause of car shortage and delayed de
liveryjof the fruit. However,Spitzen
burg and Newtown pools will probably
be closed next month.
Affiliated growers of the Association
last week received checks on a distri
bution that had just been declared that
totaled approximately $100,000.
Japanese Will Give Berries
Japanese strawberry growers of the
Hood River valley, numbering approx
imately 200, will aid the local Red
Cross chapter with a donation by each
of a crate of extra fancy fruit. The
berries will be turned over to the sales
associations through which the Jap
anese growers ship their product, the
returns to be credited to the humani
tarian organization.
The donation of berries, it is esti
mated, will net the Red Cross about
$300.
Bean Bill Off Ballot
Although the ballots for the special
election of June 4 had been printed for
Hood River county before the supreme
court rendered a decision ruling off the
Bean bill, it was not necessary to re
print the voting blanks. Following in
structions irom secretary or state UI
cott, County Clerk Shoemaker had the
Bean bill Bcored out, and the ballots in
this form will go to voters on election
day.
Whooping Cough
One of the most successful prepara
tfons in use for this disease is Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. S.W. McClinton,
Blandon Springs, Ala., writes, "Our
baby had whooping cough as bad as
most any baby could have it. I gave
him Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and
it soon got him well." Obtainable
