TO PLAY DOUBLE J TODAY The high school foot ball team with its light! shifty plnyers is becoming a strong contender fur the lower CollllD ha Inter-Scholastic honors. Its victory over Gresham labt Friday, 3G-7, makes the thiid successive victory, each of them by decisive scores. Camas atid FJstHcnda were the other two rivals humbled by the Apple Growers' squad. The team row has balanced the deftats of the early season at the hands of heavier and more experienced teams. Vancouver, The Dalles and Pendleton, three exceptionally strong teams this year, were held to very small scores. The recent showing of the Hood kiv er team indicates that all they lacked was experience, which handicap has been overcome bv steaiiy coaching, per sistent practice and in indomitable spirit. When they mtet James John high school, of Portland, on the local field for the Thanksgiving game they will no doubt face a real test of their bril liant attack. The Double-J squad is climbing steadily in the Portland inter scholastic series and by no means will be an easy match for the high school. A great deal of interest has been shown in the team this year and a rec ord crowd is expected to witness tie Thanksgiving contest, which will mark the close of the season here. Scores of the other games have been : Vancouver 21, Hood River 7; The Dalles 14, Hood River 7; Pendleton 14, Hood River (( ; Camas 0, Hood River 17; Kstacada 0, Hood River 52. The CULL APPLES GO TO $17 PER TON NASH The cull apple market was revived last week when the Hood River Apple Vin egar Co. announced an offer of $17 per ton for all sound apples below C-grade, exclusive of fruit less than 2J inches in diameter. The highest offer for this class of fruit to date has been $12 per ton, paid by canners. The local concern will use the cull apples in their evaporation plant. Visiting Orchardist Offers Suggestions 2181 A. L. Morrison, an orchardist of Pembroke, Mass. and an authority on pomological subjects, after an inspec tion of local orchards the past week, gently criticises Hood River growers on their indifference to certain difease pests and the general character of their orchard tracts. He declares that the easterner buys western box apples, not because he considers them better to the taste, but more beautiful than the fruit raised in home orchards. "If I were blindfolded." says the visitor, "I would certainly much prefer eating a Hood River apple than one grown in the east. I might find a worm lodged in the eastern fruit. Hut woe to you Hood River growers if an east ern woman ever finds a worm in your apples. In short, easterners like your fruit because they can depend on your grading, and that is primarily what they pay for. For this reason then1 will always he a good market for Hood River apples, provided the box contains what is represented on its face. If you crowd your grades too far you will re ceive a blow from which you will never recover. " Commenting on the prevalence of anthracnose Mr. Morrison declared that some system of cooperative control for makirnr all irrowers conform to neces sary spraying rules be adopted. Postoflice a Busy Place The postoflice on an average week av at this season might very well be taken for a freight depot. Since the apple harvest began the oflice has han dled more than Jive carloads of fruit by parcel post. Several motor truck ; loads are dispatched daliy. Rural de f livery men are crowded to capacity with apple boxes ana one day last week one of the deliverymen left town with his automobile loaded down with seed wheat. Another carried a two Imshel bag of walnuts, shipped from Dundee to a patron. The day before the nostoffice received for delivery a half of the carcass of a bear, mailed to a local friend from an eastern Ore- j gon hunter. Over the postoflice last week was suspended a most perceptible redolence ! of skunk perfume. A hunter dis- patched his early furs through the mails Despite the fact that the clerks I hastened the bag of furs to a rear j door, they were allowed to remain long i enough to leave their aroma. Kiddies Collect Old Newspapers Hood Rver homes have been gleaned of all old magazines and newpapers by j pupils of the city schools. The young- sters are viewing with each other in their solicitations. Daily kiddies. ranging from six to U years, can ; r j homes with coaster wagons and haul off refuse papers from cellars and attics. The old paMM are being sold for the purchase of pictures, playground equip , ment and other articles for classrooms. ; A prize will be awarded by the faculty to the clat s of youngsters assembling the greattst quantity of papers. Col lections have already reached several motor truck lor.dj. Smith Cack From Michigan "While indications of retrenchment are apparent in the larger manufartur i ig centers where men are being laid off," says E. C. Smith, just back from a business trip to Grand Rapids, Mich., and who called at other points in the north central states, "conditions are not very dissimilar from those of the smaller communities of Oregon. Con ditions, I believe, are better than one would expert from press reports." Mr. Smith returned bv way of Cali fornia and was accompanied home by Mrs. Smith and the twin babies. Wenatchee Deal Excites Attention A deal by H. G. Bohlke, Cashmere apple buver, who is said to have pur chased 2.700 carloads of apples in the Wenatchee district recently, has cre ateo the sensation of the season in ap ple marketing, according to eastern trade papers. Mr. Bohlke was recently m New Y .rk city for a conference with Joe Steinhardt, well known box Hi i !e operator. Mr. Steinhardt, who is optimistic over the apple deal pick ing up as the season advances, stated that h would handle the accounts of Mr. ISuhlke in the east. Alt.
