Underwood Has Late Berries
With berry harvest winding up in
lower localities, A. R. RutT, whose
place is on Underwogd mountain, is
just beginning this week to pick the
fruit from a 10 acre tract. Mr. RulT
reports fruit of fine quality. A keen
demand for Clark Seedling atrawber
ries continues to exist, and the Under
wood grower is expecting heavy re1
turns.
CAUFORNIANS ARE i
STEADY APPLE EATERS
The outstanding feature uf the Ap- '
pie Growers Association s IiOS Angeles i
branch office has been the decreasinglv
short period, each year of the past '
three, during which the southern Call -!
fomia orange harvest slows up apple
consumption.
"Formerly." says Mr. Hooker here '
to make his annual report to the Asso- j
ciatioi 'directorate," we expected our i
market to go to pieces for six weeks
or two months until the jople got
their fill of orai.ges. Last year the
lull in apple sales was hardly percept
ible." Mr. Hooker declares that the world
w ar has been a loon to apple growers
in that it has demonstrated to jobbers
that the fruit could be handled by
them after reaching a high price.
"Indeed," says Mr. Hooker, "along
with the standardization of pack, prop
er warehousing and service offered by !
sales concerns, the war has brotgb
the joblier and the consumer to corsid
er the apple as a commodity, and the
jobber has learned that it will be con
sumed after a certain high price has
been reached, whereas in former years
he declined to participate in purchases,
unless there were indications of a
shortage, when the price passed a fixed
point. More jobbers bought apples last
year than ever on any former year, and
as a result the widest distribution was
secured. 1 look for jobbers to continue
to buy, and apples hereafter will be
sold on a commodity basis. Jobbers
will feel as though tliey have to handle
them."
CIDER WILL BE OF
FERED MR. BRYAN
When William Jennings Bryan, whose
favorite beverage and grape juice have
long been synonomous, arrives here
Saturday July 12, to close the annual
Hood Kiver Chautauqua, local admirers
will take from a cold storage room a
keg of sweet cider for consumption
during his visit. Mr. Bryan will not j
be ottered a drink of grape juice w hile
in the city.
The Commoner will be brought from
The Oalles, where he is also scheduled
to deliver a lecture, by automobile.
He will be entertained in the orchards
by a party of The Dalles and Hood
Kiver admirers.
The chautauqua, its programs fea
turing war reminiscences and problems
of reconstruction will begin next Monday.
Boy Reports Petrified Peach
His attention called to a recent Tele
gram story of the petrified strawberry
seen by County Engineer Cruikshank
at forestry headquarters on Eagle
creek, a Portland boy has written Mr.
Cruikshank to tell of a petrified peach,
w hich he says was discovered at I he
Dalles. The stone berry, according to
the story of the forestry men, was se
cured by them from a tramp, who de
clares that he picked it up near Spo
kane, lhe letter to the local engineer
from the Portland youth follows :
"You and the forest rangers have
nothing on me. You may have a petri
fied strawberry, but 1 have a petrified
peach. I found it on our ranch, the one
we used to have at The Dalles. It is
an Indian peach, one of the red kind
that is rare, lhe kind my mother likes
to use for sweet pickles. It has a pet
rified hole in it, where the stem was
but isn t any more.
"Sometimes I think I'd like to be an
engineer or a forest ranger, and then I
prefer the life of a tramp. If 1 were
a tramp now I'd waddle right away to
Hood Kiver and eat my nil of straw
berries, something that is impossible
at present in a family of seven and
with the strawberry trust pushing the
bottoms of the boxes way up toward
the top."

Logan Berries Are Profitable
Several years ago a number of Hood
River orchardists became interested
in loganberries, planting the fruit in
hedges around their orchard tracts.
They are now reaping a rich harvest,
and the returns would be much greater
if the supply justified local shippers in
creating an out of town market for the
fruit, indications are that growers
who have small plantings of loganber
ies will receive better than $3 per
crate in supplying the local trade.
The first loganberries harvested here
this season were grown by E. J. Cop
per. They were sold for 15 cents per
pint hallock.

There is a Grade for Every Price
Quoted in the Lumber Business
A great many people make up a list of lumber which they
submit to their dealer with the information that "the low
man gets the bill."
The only loser in such a transaction is the buyer.
He doesn't get better lumber for a lower price. He
simply gets a lower grade. The customer really loses be
cause he required certain grades and thought he was
getting them, but he wasn't.
It is unreasonable to expect a Lumber Dealer
to sell Lumber at cost or less, just to beat some
other fellow out of business.
To prevent this there is a big shuffling of grades "Try
this or try that " something "better for less money,"
etc., etc.
Buy right First Come to the yard where there is but
one price, and price that is right in the first place.
