"SERVICE" IS HIS MOTTO NINTH SCHOOL FAIR SATURDAY The ninth annual industrial school fair of this county will be held at the high school Saturday. With the annual county fair, scheduled to take place simultaneously, cancelled for this year, indications point to record heavy ex hibits, according to County School Su perinteident Gibson, who bat spent much time this summer in encouraging the children of all school districts in the nre aration of cluh and individual displays. Mr. Gibson says that the work of the youngsters in numerous districts is nothing short of wonderful. The two boys and two girls winning first place in club exhibits and the members ot the successful canning team at Saturday's fair will be given iree trips 10 tne state tair at Salem It is anticipated that much of the gar den, vegetable and grain products of the youngsters will be utilized in Hood River county's display at the state fair, which will be assembled by Percy U Manser, secretary ot the Hood Riv er Lttonty rair Hoard, and rushed to the capital by automobile truck. FALL BORDEAUX MUST BE APPLIED WHITE SALMON . mii tne Kuterprlse) F. S. Baker and family spent Sun aay in noon Kiver. After an absence of IS years, I. R Ziegler and family, of Underwood, spent the week end in the Yakima val ley. Mr. Ziegler, who was in town Wednesday says the development of the Yakima country in the IS years is most surprising. The hay, grain and fruit crops in that section are large. It is reported that the Cox Lumber Co., operating near Appleton has taken an option on the Swan-llamann saw :n . r i - i in nun sue on nunioin anu will erect a mill and box factory. The flume is to Le rebuilt. Last Thursday evening Mr. and Mrs. Ripper and Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Lewis entertained about 25 of their friends at the Ripper home. The Ripper home was beautifully decorated for the occa sion and cards and dancing were en joyed. Card honors fell to Mrs. G. A. Reed and Dr. K. H. Putney. The hos tesses served their guests with a very appetizing lunch. Ira E. Hyde has returned from a trip to Yakima and Wenatchee where he looked over the apple situation. He found no high prices had vet been naid for fruit in that section. He says : "Investigation proves purchases in the above mentioned districts have not been made at the high prices reported. Certain interests are said to have re ported these high sales without orders at those prices, evidently hoping to start the eastern buyer out at higher prices than his judgment dilated. The easterner did not bite but the grower's idea of prices was magnified and good authority at Wenatchee now advi.-os that of the 16,000 cars soon to lie har vested, hardly 2,000 cars have been sold, where fully half of them should have been definitely contracted. "Several of the most responsible buyers in Yakima and Wenatchee some of them growers are offering for Spitz, Newtown and Winesap, ex tra fancy, $1.75; fancy, $1.50; C grade, $1.25, and are not anxious to buy at that. Delicious, $2.65 to $2.75, extra fancy; $2.25 to $2.50, fancy; and $2 for 0 grade. Winter Bananas, $2.55 to $2.75, extra fancy; $2.25 for fancy; and $1.75 for C grade and as low as $1.50 in a few instances. J. E. Smithson, of Hood River, man ager of Oregon-Washington Telephone Co., was a White Salmon visitor Wed nesday. Paul McKereher has returned from the east where he looked over the ap ple market. Everywhere, he fouiid little demand and buyers waiting. He had a few propositions made him at prices somewnat lower than any grow ers here would be w illing to take. The truck driven by Ezra Kiser, in hauling crushed rock on the Snowden highway, went over into the canyon Thursday morning while trying to ne gotiate the turn at the Paradise Flat rock crusher, and crashed down 50 feet to the bottom. Mr. Kiser sustained a fractured arm and the fingers of his hanil are also badly hurt. E. Weldon, of Husum, reports his flock of 92 White Leghorn hens, Tail ored strain, average 211 eggs each the (last year, from September 1. 1920, to August Si of this year. This was their first laying year and in spite of high feed and low egg prices, each hen made him a net profit of two dollars. Mr. Weldon expects to increase his flock to 500 next year. Attorney George R. Wilbur, of Hood River, while in town Monday for a conference with directors of the White Salmon Irrigation project, reported preliminary arrangements progressing along as fast as could be expected. "Such preliminaries ire necessarily siow, said Attorney mi our, but we are pegging away an'i should soon have water for the fertile land to be included within the White Salmon Irri- gation district. " The 1921 session of the legislature at the request of a great many growers and shippers of the state changed the law so that the horticultural division of the State Department of Agricul ture could issue certificates of inspec tion covering the grade and condition of fruits and vegetables, and it made these certificates prima facie evidence in any court ot the statv, and provided that a fee sufficient to cover the cost of such inspection should ie charged. There has been a ttroi demand for Federal Bureau of Markets inspection at the shipping point of fruits and vegetables, and at last this year ar rangement were completed for co operation between the I 'nited States U .. - U 1 A I . . C,AA uutwii oi jntoieu anu me oiaie ue- parimenr. oi Agricullur. so that we (By M. D. Armstrong) The grower needs to plan more care fully for and to execute more thor oughly than ever before, the applica tion of the Bordeaux spray this fall. Practically every orchard in the Lower "Hey and the larger percentage in the Upper Valley require this spray. To be efficient this spray must be on the trees before much rain has fallen. Already with the first rain tho spores of this disease are beginning to fly about From now on these spores will be disseminated just in proportion to he amount ol t.Jny weather that we nave, and with continuous .lavs of damp weather will begin to grow into the bark. Therefore, the sooner the trees are covered with spray the better will be the protection. Thorough spray ing will kill any spores that have not germinated and grown into the bark and will kill others as they are washed and spattered on the limbs. One good plan is to begin the spray ing before the crop is fully harvested unless the orchard is small. This can easily be done if enough help is provid ed, or a little extra time put in, and thus the spraying is nearly accom plished by the time the picking is fin ished. Early varieties which have been picked can be sprayed at once ano mis much put out of the way. A very important thing is to have every thing ready, machine in working order and material on hand and prepared, so that any odd time can be made use of in applying the spray. The lime can be slacked and the vitriol dissolved though they should not be mixed to gether till ready to spray. The form ula ot t pounds of bluestone to Ho gallons of water is used. Trees must e sprayed thoroughly and everv limb covered. Care must bejtaken to' sprav clear through the tree and to wet the inside ot the limb on the opposite siria of the tree. The thick brushv with all of their leaves reauire a ereat deal of sprav. Some have not th iiuipment to do the spravinir when they would like and need to make special arrangement to have it done in time. On the other hand some grow ers who have equipment can not be in luced to help their neighbors where they can. This is a community prob lem and should be looked upon as such Neighbors working together will solve this problem whrch will result in their mutual benefit. Plan to get this sprav on. and'then get it on.

Joe Smith Marba, who was a dancing comedian in Cohan and other musical shows until he started out as a film actor this summer, looked so like a desperado that the colored waiters fumbled the silverware and the dishes every time they got near him.
