V RECORDS SHEET MUSIC Ukuleles -- Banjos - Violins -- Guitars SLOCOM & CANFIELD COMPANY The Hood River Apple Vinegar Co. is bringing to completion improvements at its plant that w ill enable it to han dle cull fruit this season without de lays in delivery of former years. Re placing four presses of small capacity, the concern this year has installed five presses of maximum capacity, each for the great Alaskan pic- equipped to handle the pulp from three large grinding machines, the grind ers, each w ith a 50 ton daily capacity, replace one grinder formerly used. Along O.-W. K. & S. tracks the company is constructing a large con crete flume, which will hold five car loads of apples. With switching ser vice operating here twice daily, this w ill enable the unloading of 10 cars of apples daily. The cars will be shipped out tilled with barreled cider.

Backgrounds here in the Hood River valley are practical ly unlimited. You are going to have moving picture payrolls added to those already existent in prosperous Oregon. "We will be at least a year on the filming of 'The Golden Trail.' While we do not have as many days of 'shoot ing weather' in Oregon as in Califor nia, that is, for open work, we will spend the periods of bad days in our new $10,000 studio in Portland." ii. r. garageIets BEAN CO.

GIBSON & SON SELL 200,000 BERRY PLANTS W. R. Gibson & Son, of th (Well district, have just received one of the largest orders ever awarded local strawberry nurserymen. Ranchers of the Richland, Wash., section have put in an order aggregating 200,000 Clark Seedling berry plants. "This number will set beween 35 and 40 acres of strawberries," says the elder Mr. Gibson, and in three years time should lie producing more than 20 car loads of fruit. We will ship the plants next March and April. I understand that the Richland section is going into berries heavily.

Phone 2181 In order to be able to properly handle the crop this and succeeding years, the Dufur Orchard Co. is now busily en gaged in erecting and equipping build ings so that the apple crop can be taken care of with the least labor and expeditiously as possible. A new cook house has been constructed. The main part of this building is 24x120 feet in size. In the arrangement of the din ing room the usual order for the feed ing of a large number of people has been departed from. In the place of having two or three large tables to eat from, the tables will be just krge enough to accommodate eight peopie, and there will be 112 of these tables in the room, making accommodations for 25t people to eat at one time. The kitchen which adjoins the dining room is ns modern as it is possible for it to be. The cooking range is 11 feet in length having a baking capacity of several hundred loaves of bread, as well as the usual capacity for boiling, frying, etc. All the flour, sugar and other bins are on the built-in principal, there also being compartments for placing bread to raise, for the pies, cakes and other prepared articles. Ar rangements are made for storing all necessary food in the kitchen with the exception of meats, a refrigerator hav ing been built on the outside but quite near the kitchen door. The company has also recently con structed and equipped a store or com missary for the handling, not only of their own supplies, but for the em ployes as well. They have also constructed two apartment houses for the accommoda tion of the families who expect to live in the orchard a part of the year. Each of these houses has room for eight families. In addition to this the company has rooms for the accommo dation of the unmarried men who are employed in the orchard. Besides the work of constructing and equipping the buildings which is now going on, there are several crews at work spraying. They are spraying the orchard for the fourth and last time. Other crews are at work thinning, cut ting blight, etc. The harvest will begin about the last of September or first of October. The company has contracted with a California firm for the packing of the entire crop, but local help will be em ployed for picking, sorting and grad ing. At present there are several at work making boxes in which the ap ples will be packed. Some of the box makers become very expert at the work, as high as 90 boxes an hour be ing their claim. The company has sold all their culls this year to a Portland firm, that firm taking care of the culls themselves. There are about 150 people employed at the orchard, thinning.cutting blight, spraying, erecting the new buildings and doing the other work necessary. Dufur Dispatch. conveyors will take the apples to bins that have a capacity of lb carloads. The apples are taken from the birs through an hydraulic pressure, wherein water, freshened after every delivery, all foreign material and even decayed spots are removed, to the grinders on a second floor. The concern eontempates this year to utilize the pumace, for merly a waste product, in the manufac ture of a by-product. From the presses the cider will be taken to a battery of lrt up -story fil ters, and from these it passes to the packace ready for shipment, the vin egar concern, now the Northwest and one the country, is installing 250 horsepower each and a vacuum fan, which will evaporate 1,300 gallons if cider per hour. The apple juice is re duced in volume until its acids and su gar will keep it perfectly fresh. Ordi nances of some cities, it is said, prevent the sale of fresh cider, which quickly ferments. The concentrated cider, by application of the same volume of wa ter removed, again becomes fresh ci der, and dealers in ultra-dry territoriis can purchase the concentrate for sup plying their trade. The company, the year's development of w hich will "reach $t0, 000, plans on grinding 10,000 tons of cull apples this season as compared with 5,000, its former record, last year. As h result of prohibition and the de mand for fresh cider, the shipments of fresh juice will exceed those of former years. Large quantities of vinegar, however, will also be manufactured. j C. K. Kogtra, who for many years has operated a manufactory of milk condensing machinery at Detroit, Mich., ard his son, R. M. Rogers, have pur chased a substantial interest in the local concern. Both are now here. The elder Mr. Rogers will remain until the condensing machinery has started oper ation. The son will remain. State W. S. S. Office Closes September 1 marked the passing of the Treasury Department's War Sav ings Stamp organization in Oregon. The government has withdrawn its promotion 'of the sale of these baby bonds as a federal function, and state headquarters, maintained for nearly two years in 1'ortland, has been closed. County organizations throughout the state have also been notified that there will be'no further need of tlitir effort, inasmuch as the buying of stamps is to be left in future to personal initiative and volunteer effort. Robert E. Smith, director of sales for the general war loan organization of the Twelfth Federal Reserve dist rict, announces that the cost of pro moting sales of Thrift Stamps ami War Savings Stamps has been out of pro portion to the results obtained, though it is hiB hope that the educational cam paign for thrift, which has been an im portant feature of the war stamp work, will be carried on in the schools, and through war saving societies. Oregon during the war, not only led the nation in attain'ng its quotas of war stamps, but did so at less expendi ture than any other state.

Phone -tlU Packing School Held Next Week "We are assured that a great scare ity of labor will prevail at harvest sea son," announces the Apple Orowers Association in a bulletin setting the dale of the annual packing school for the week commencing September 8. The sales organization, however, states that everything possible is being done to relieve the situation. The U. S. labor bureau will open a free employ ment office during harvest season. All growers are asked to report their needs of pickers to the Portland office of the bureau, 75 Third Street, Port land. Growers are also requested to communicate immediately with out of town families who have aided.in their harvest in former seasons. Resident students will be charged tuition fees of $2.50 for the week's packing school. Non-residents will have to pay $5. Afternoons will be de voted partly to lectures and Jdemon strations of packs, and wives and daughters of growers are urged to at tend the afternoon sessions, in order that they may be prepared to help with a shortage.

Irrigation Repairs Spoil Roads "When rural residents in repairing or placing irrigation flumes and cul- j verts tear up a highway," say A. C. j Lofts, "they ought to leave th road in 1 as good condition as it was originally. "Our motor trucks, visiting all parts I of the valley, have run into consider : able trouble recently because of care ! less work." ! Mr. Lofts says that last wek one of his trucks dropping into a poorly filled : trench, where a box culvert had been j removed, had two springs broken, Just Little Stories Likely there was never a grandmoth er that did not search in vain lor her spectacles while they nestled securely in her hair. A Hood River citizen spent two weeks with a bed chamber in the dark, thinking the lighting fix tures were in need of repairs. Elec trical workers are very busy installing wiring for new apple placking plants, and for two weeks a candle was lighted at bedtime. When the electrician did finally ar rive he discovered the only trouble in a dead bulb. Instead ofj replacing a burned globe with a new one, another old bulb had been screwed into the fix ture. Hood River Crop Big The government report gives the Hood River percentage of a normal ap ple crop in excess of any other district of the state. It is estimated that the valley will have a 95 per cent crop. The Rngue River valley is placed at W per cent. Excellent growing weather of the past month may cause the local crop to run even higher. The fruit is siz ing very rapidly. OVER-ACIDITY of the stomach ha upset many ft night's rest.
