C B. ATTCHISON IS
APPOINTED TO LCC
Information pregnant with interest
to the fruit growers of the northwest
is conveyed in the announcement that
the newest member of the Interstate
Commerce Commission is Clyde B.
Aitchison, of Portland. Oregon. Mr.
Aitchison was appointed September 29
to fill one of the vacancies on the Com
mission, and the fact that he is a
northwest man, familiar with the
northwest 'is of vital significance to
northwest interests. The new com
missioner was for a number of years
chairman of the Oregon Railroad Com
mission. About two yearj ago he re
signed his appointment cn the Railroad
Commission to become counsel for the
National Association of Railroad Com
missioners with headquarters in Wash
ington, D. C
The Northwest Fruit Exchange in
its latest bulletin calls especial atten
tion to this appointment, pointing out
the facta above noted, and J. Curtis
Robinson, traffic manager of the Ex
change, and well aqua in ted with Mr.
Aitchison, makes the following state
ment in this connection :
"The fruit growers of the northwest
should -feel very grateful at this ap
pointment. Mr. Aitchison has lived in
the northwest a long time in close
touch with our different industries, and
is familiar with all the different condi
tions of this section. Certainly if any
one can intelligently and sympathetic
ally interpret our wants and needs, the
new aDDointee can. He is a gentleman
of long experience. He rendered very
valuable service to the committee
which was sent to Washington on the
15 per cent rate case. I also remem
ber when Mr. Aitchison rendered other
valuable service to the fruit industry
at the time the Union Pacific lines
made an attempt to close the Denver
gateway. ' The Northwestern Fruit
Exchange happened to be the only con
cern connected with the fruit industry
which protested against the closing of
that gateway, and at the hearing in
Portland before the Interstate Com
merce examiner as the Exchange's
representative, I was entirely alone
behind this protest. However, Mr.
Aitchison was then with: the Oregon
Railway Commission, and be very ably
came to my assistance, the evidence I
had then being presented in such a
way that the Interstate Commerce
Commission finally decided that it was
not in order for the Denver gateway to
be closed on fruit shipments. Mr.
Aitchison is a very thorough student,
and I feel sure he will meet with great
success in his new position."
EMRY PLANS NEW
MILL NEAR FIR
The Hood River valley will have an
other large sawmill next spring. Nel
son Emry, manager of the Bridal Veil
Lumber Co., has secured large timber
holdings on the east fork of Neal
creek on the Cascade range skirting
the east side of the orchard districts,
Mr. Emry has been granted a permit
to appropriate water from the east
fork of Neal creek for fluming pur
poses. The estimated cost of the flume
construction in $10,000.
First news of the proposed new mill
reached here through a report from
the office of State Engineer Lewis, who
also reports the following three water
appropriation permits for Hood river
basin :
School District No. 2, to irrigate
four acres from three springs ; F. C.
Syphers, of The Dalles, for irrigating
12 acres from Three mile creek ; L. C.
Baldwin, of Parkdale, for irrigating 12
acres from a spring.
Men Impressed by Lost Lake
C. A. Bell, Leslie Butler and Walter
McDougal, just returned from a trip
to Lost Lake, deplore the fact that the
beautiful mountain body of water is so
inaccessible. The men drove in Mr.
Butler's automobile as far as D. I.
Stone's ranch on the headwaters of the
West Fork of Hood River. They hiked
from there the eight mile distance to
the lake.
"It is now beautiful at the lake,"
says Mr. Bell. "At the high altitude
the frost has painted the foliage of
dozens of different kinds of bushes as
many different colors. We found the
lake covered with hundreds of water
fowl.." On the return trip the men left the
lake at 1 p. m. and arrived in Hood
Riverlat 6, a record speed for the 30
mile distance.
Walters Buys Bonds for Whole Family
Walter Walters, proprietor of a local
barber shop and member of the city
council, called at the Butler Bank
Monday morning and subscribed for a
Liberty bond. When his name was en
tered he said, "Now I want four oth
ers, one each for every other member
of my family, my wife and three chil
dren." In less than 10 minutes, Walter
Swain, a barber at the shop of Mr.
Walters, appeared at the bank. Ap
proaching the desk of the manager he
said :
"My boss sent me'overto buy a Lib
erty Bond."
Famish Has Record Potatoes
W. E, Furnish, son of Mr. and Mrs.
W. J. Furnish, of Portland, who took
charge of a large Upper Valley ranch
purchased last winter from A. Millard,
is making a record for the production
of potatoes this fall. While generally
it is reported, that the Hood River
valley potato crop ' is poor because of
the exceedingly dry summer, Mr. Fur
nish will harvest a bumper crop from
a 12 acre tract. ,
"I have just begun the harvest of
my potatoes," says Mr. Furnish, who
was in the city Saturday. "From one
hill we dug 26 large, well shaped
tubers. The potatoes measured just a
little less than a peck."

GROWERS FINED FOR
WORMY SHIPMENTS
The first two cases in the Hood
River fruit district and probably in
the state, under the new horticultural
lawr which prohibits the shipment or
sale of wormy or diseased apple ex
cept to canneries or other by-products
plants which change the identity of
the fruit, were heard here Saturday by
Justice of the Peace Onthank who
assessed the minimum fine of $5
against Oscar Vanderbilt and Chas. H.
Castner, both of whom pleaded guilty.
The law governing - the casea was
adopted by the last legislature.
In a statement to the court Mr.
Vanderbilt, owner of the largest East
Side orchards, said that the consign
ment of wormy fruit for which he was
held responsible resulted from work of
inexperienced packers.
"Busy with the harvest," said the
grower, "I instructed two experienced
Japanese packers to teach some of
their fellow countrymen how to pack
last Sunday. They were told to make
ready for shipment a block of Kings.
Following my arrest for shipping
wormy apples I have learned that the
Japanese men not only put othes boys
to work, but engaged their wives.
Nor did they make any distinction
between good and bad apples."
Mr. Castner appeared as manager oi
the Hood River Fruit Co. The apples
which brought the concern before the
court had been delivered by the Min
eral Springs Orchard Co.
LIVE NEWS FROM
TWELFTH COMPANY
The target practice which' has been
given all the men of 12th Co. during
the past week has'developed some very
good shots as well as some very poor
ones. The obiect of this shooting at
'present is to find out just how .good a
rine man each man is at the present
time so that the poorest at the art can
be given special training later to bring
up the efficiency of the ccmpany as a
whole in actual service. However, to
qualify for record shooting each man
must have made a score of 70 per cent
or better. At the present writing the
following men have qualified : Son
nichsen, Foust, G. Shoemaker, Moe,
Battey, Douglas, 1.1am, Chandler,
Burns, Barr and Alexander. '
Furloughs are now being granted
and the men are taking full advantage
of them, five at a time only.
One of the largest social functions of
the season was given at Ilwaco a week
ago in the form of a military - ball.
Decorations were placed especially for
the occasion and a large number of the
members were present. It is hoped
and expected that even better affairs
will be arranged in the near future so
that the routine work of company drill
will not become drudgery.
Dr. Wm. M. Post has been at Fort
Canby during the past ten days mak
ing dental repairs on the men s teeth
which needed immediateattention. He
will return to Hood River about the
middle of this week to "resume his
practice, but promises to visit the boys
again in the near future. .
The gun rags which, were sent by
the 12th Co. Ladies' Auxiliary have
been received and came at a time
when they were badly needed to clean
the rifle after shooting on the target
range. If used properly this generous
gift should last the company members
a long time.
Mrs. Kent Shoemaker, Mrs. L. F.
Parker, Mrs. W. J. A. Baker and Mrs.
Bliss L. Clark will make their . homes
with their husbands at Fort Canby
while the company remains in their
present quarters. The families of
Capt, Wilbur, Lieut. Van Horn and
sgt. w. Lb Hodges nave been at the
fort for some time.
The 12th Co. was second on the list
of Liberty Bond purchasers of all the
companies of the Oregon Coast Artil
lery, $4s5U being subscribed.
It is still possible to enlist as a mem
ber of the 12th Co. , as the organization
at present lacks 12 men of having a
full quota. There are many men in
the Hood River valley who will be
called on the second or third increment
of the drafted army who could enlist
their names on the company roster if
they applied in the near future. Any
information on the subject can be
obtained by writing to Capt. Geo. R.
Wilbur, the Company commander.
Shave Prices Soar
The 15 cent shave is no more in Hood
River, all barbers having adopted a
schedule including shaves at 25 cents
each. Each patron, however, if he de
sires it, will be entitled to a neck
shave gratis. Hair cuts .will remain
35 cents.
Tobacco dealers, following the effect
of the new war tax have increased the
prices on their wares.
Croup
If your children are subject to croup
get a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, and when the attack comes on
be careful to follow the plain printed
directions. You will be surprised at the
quick relief which it affords.
