A man can get a heap more
satisfaction from a small chew
of this class of tobacco, than
he ever could get from a big
chew of the old kind.
He finds it costs less, too. The -
good tobacco taste lasts so
much longer he doesn't nee
to have a fresh chew ucarly
as often. ,

H. R. H. S. 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.

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.

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.
