"When one contemplates a box vf
H.x-d Kiver apples," says J.V. Strange,
assistant tent-ml manager of the I'ai-itio
1'i.utr Jt I.iuht Co., here from Portland
on a tour of inspection last week, it
wi.i.M never occur to him that electric
ity hhd anything' to do with the perfec
ts rs .f the beautiful package. Yet
electrical power will" perhaps lie used
m fcrrudii and sizing !.' per cent of the
carloads of apples shipped from
jour valley this year. 1'ractically all
growers who use power sizing ma
rlines, which effect a saving of labor
more so than any other orchard device,
drive them with electric motors. More
than io such power graders have been ,
purchas.xi here this" year, and we will
be called on to make connections and
be ready to t.fTer our service to that
many indiviual or community packing :
Concerns. I'ower graders also, I am
tol l by experienced fruit men. result
in a desired standardization of pack."
Mr. Strange says that he knows of
no agricultural district of the state
where electrical power is so generally
used by rural residents as in Hood Kiv
er. "We tell far more energy to Mood
Kiver orchardists than to rural resi
dents of any other of our oMices in Ore
gon and Washington," he says. "Our
lines penetrate every district, except
lee. where the Oregon Lumber Co.,
operating its mill w ith electrical power,
furni: hes light. We have 75 miles of
distributing line in the Hood Kiver val
ley, where the area in cultivation does
not exceed 15,000 acres. Mrst all orch
ardists' homes are lighted by electric
ity. Washing and ironing is accom
plished in many instances w ith electri
cal energy. Our development here has
been rather extensive. 1 find that our
records show that for every $1 of gross
increased revenue we have expended $5
in property investments."
Mr. Strange, w ho left here for a tour
of she White Salmon country, stated
tint his company had found orchard
ists, whose profits from fruit sales
have letn unusually good the p;.8t two
years, interested in an issue of pre
ferred stock offered by his concern.
"We are trying to stimulate this in
terest, " says the elcetric man, "realiz
ing that it will result in a better co
operation for future development in
the orchard districts."
Mr. Stiunye warned apple grocers
who w ill complete new packing plants
this year and who will require service
for elevators and motors to make
known their wants soon as possible.
"We find it very ditiicult to obtain
materials in our line" he said, "and in
order to prevent a shortage or a con
gestn n at harvest time, we should
know the requirements of the district
at once."

"1 fear orchardists of Michigan think
I was very unappreciative," writes
Mrs. 11. 0. Niehol, Jr., of Paducah,
Ky., who just before leaving with her
children this summer for a vacation at ;
a Great Lakes point, received a box of I
Hood River Rings. j
"The Michigan people teemed to
think that their cherries were the most
wonderful in the world. They boasted
of having the bitrgest single cherry
orchard in the country, but after eat
ing the wonderful cherries of Oregon,
I somehow could not enthuse over the
cherries up there in Michigan. The
box I received looked like a picture.
It arrived with less than a dozen cher
ries spoiled and my friends could not
believe that the fruit was cherries.
They said it must be a variety of
plum."
The cherries shipped to Mrs. Nichol
traveled as far east as Minneapolis on
a refrigerated carload of fruit shipped
by the Association. From the Minne
sota point it was relayed by express,
ariiving in the Kentucky city soon af
ter leaving the iced car.
Vain Trip to See Hood's Snows
G. F. Schmitt, of Portland, and his
laii,'hter, Mrs. H. A. Cress, of St.
Paul, Minn., journeyed the 90 miles ;
from Portland to Parkdale last week i
to (jet a view of Mount Hood and then 1
were disappointed. Forest tires to the
wi -st a. id south of the peak entirely ob
literated the snowfields and glaciers in
a bank of smoke.
"My daughter will have to return
ea-t greatly disappointed," said Mr.
Sciimidt. "We had waited in vain
hopng that rains might clear away the
smoke and bring the snowfields in
siht from Portland. We thought cer
ta.nly we could see it from Parkdale."
