FOURTH STREET Tel. 2551 The convenience! and aecommoda tiona of a hurh class tourist hotel are complements of the lurea of a highway in a scenic region. This is true, even though the road be the Columbia River Highway. Keeults of this summer have oroven it. Before the Columbia Goge Hotel was huwtby S. Benson parties of tourists. traveling on large sightseeing cars and out for a jaunt of a few hours or the part of a day, usually came no further than Multnomah falls or bagle creek. although many of them knew of the orchards and scenic charm of the Hood River valley. Eastern agencies, arrang ing itineraries of tneir patrons, railed to recommend the longer trip up the Columbia River Highway for the rea son that no large tourist hotel was available. lhat is all changed this year and a large percentage of the tourists, who travel to metropolitan centers by rail. making Portland one of their bases for sightseeing, call for a trip to the Hood River valley. A meal at the Cloumbia Gorge hotel has become a feature of the day's highway trip. Wm. bhaw. who drives one of the Tyrrell Trip sightseeing cars, was at the Gorge Hotel last week on his ninth consecutive day with a sightsee ing party. During the past six weeks. he estimates that 3,000 tourists, who probably would not have seen the orchard districts but for the Columbia uorge Hotel, nave oeen Drought here over the Columbia River Highway. "Our charge for this automobile ride from Portland," says Mr. Shaw, "reaches $6.50, but 1 have found the tourists all declaring it the best in- Mr. and Mrs. M. E. Welch were in Multnomah countv for the Gresham fair and saw the races. "It was an experience that washed away some or the cobweos placed by the routine of daily life upon my spir it, says Dr. Welch. 1 saw som sights that played on my emotions as nothing has in a lone time, ihey had some good races and I was a mighty eager watcher. But the cilmax of that fair for me was the entrance, the day the blue ribbon stock were led in grand parade down in fiont of the grandstand, of a team of young Mor gan horses owned bv A. H. Harvey There was pride in the very step of those well-groomed colts. They were beauties and they knew that they were being watched. It must have done the heart of Mr. Harvey good to see the way tbey stenned. And what hap pened demonstrated to me that human beings haven't foreotten yet how to pay their respect to eood horse flesh. As Mr. Harvev drove un to the end of the grandstand. the 5.000 people who must have been there began a spon taneous cheering, and most of them swept to their feet in an ovation to that beautiful team. Ihose colts seemed to sense the thing. It was too much for Mr. Harvev. I saw him take ut his handkerchief and slyly wipe away a tear. I am afraid my own eyes dimmed a little. I wish we had more such occasions as that, the Multnomah county fair. for this little, highly dramatic incident was worth a -whole lot to rr.c and ail the others who saw it. tourists an aeciaring u me Dest in- wt rr n num flT IVO vestment they make in scenery on the It lib I' K VIM 1 1 PI, ANN entire tourof the Northwest" I ' ' LABOR DAY PICNIC The big tourist hostelry will endeav or to stimulate further visits of tour ists next year. A new issue of 40.000 handsome booklets is being forwarded to eastern railway and tourist agen cies, ibe new booklets carry a hand some drawing of the hotel on the front cover, otherwise reference to the ho tel is only by inference. The books carry appealing cuts of the Columbia Kiver Highway and are tilled with graphic descriptions. A Routledge topographic map gives the tourist a comprehensive idea of the great high way up the gorge. It is always difficult for residents of the middle west and east to understand how climatic conditions in the North west may vary radically over a few miles' distance. It has been learned this year that the people of Portland think it always rains in Hood River if it is raining there. I he Columbia Gorge hotel is overcoming this misin formation, and recent - incidents have demonstrated to Portland folk that the sun frequently shines with brilliancy in the Hood River valley, althougl showers may prevail ail the way up the Columbia Kiver Highway to Cas cade Locks. Portland's rainfall is just a bout: twice as great as that of Hood River and, too, according to oberva- tions made by Amos Benson, who has given the state's climatic conditions considerable study latelv. a larger por tion of the Hood River rainfall occurs at night. The Knieths of Pvthias Band will have charge of a Hood River picnic at Bonneville Labor Day when, it is an ticipated, several hunderd local folk will motor down over the Columbia River Highway. The fun features will be characterized by old fashioned sports. Commitees in charge of the affair are headed by Bert Stranahan, L. S. isenberg and J. C. Meyer. Joint Blight Campaign on m.

As exchange is at par for the Tasmanian growers this means that they are getting $4.86 per box. The good prices for the Tasmania fruit is indicative that we will have a good demand for your apples," Hood River and Wasco counties have launched a joint campaign for the elimination of fire blight, nw attack ing orchards of both counties. Hood Kiver County Fruit Inspector Green and C. L. Hazen and C. W. Daigh, re spectively Wasco county fruit inspec tor and agricultural agent, are collab orating in plans for stamping out the disease. Old . orchards on the range between here and Mosier will be con demned and pulled up. lhe blight, the horticultural inspec tors say, is spread by wind, and all growers of both counties have been asked to watch their orchard tracts closely, in order to eliminate all trees or branches Bhowing symptoms of blight.
