Hood River Apple Man's Opin
ion of This Section ofthe
Country As an Ideal
Apple Country.
I honrtlly ondorso the view tnkon
by the wrltor of tho article "Hond
ed 8ulom Citizens Awake" In your
Issue of Saturday last. Tho favor
able Improsslonu as to tho future of
this part ot Oregon (Polk and Ma
rlon counties) which I I.uvo ob
tulnod since locating horo woro ma
terially strengthened by contact
with n Hood Itlvor mnn who had
just sold u young orchard nt $800
tin ncre lu that district, and caino
down to this section to relocate, nnd
hns bought a placo near Sllvorton.
He was free nnd frank enough to
say that ho thought this section af
forded, nt the presont prices on InndH
fitted for fruits, a greater opportuni
ty to inuko big ivoney, by Improving
nnd developing young orchards, eith
er to retain or soil to others. Ho
coined fully satisfied that what hud
been douo in tho Hood Itlvor dis
trict could bo done hero, particular
ly as to applos. and especially If Jho
npplo growers woro united and or
ganized In the packing, grading and
shipping of tho fruit.
It Is encouraging that thoro is n
movomont to this end well bogun al
ready lu tho Snlem Union. As n
newcomer, who hns glvon consider
able thought to tho conditions ex
isting in the already famous dis
tricts for apples, nnd from what 1
have seen of the country contribu
tory to Salem, I feel very strongly
that ve have entored a now era ot
great development, nnd that more
wondorful things than somo of tho
older growers have dronuied ot will
come to pas. That such n placo us
the writer showed tho Hood Itlvor
man last week is on tho market to
dny for $00 an acre (whllo too largo
h place for him) simply nstonlshed
him, knowing its possibilities. He
simply said, "jieople hero do not ro
aiue their opportunities."
