What it Accomplished in Shipping Straw
Berries Last Year

Berries Last Year
MIR. Editor: Please allow me space
to give inQuirers and others some ac-
count OF the workings of the Hood
River Fruit Growers Union, which is a
local association and managed as CO.
operative concern, no attempt being
made to do a commission business.
We ship Strawberries in car loads.
We own warehouse on the sidetrack
and boxes are kept on hand for the
accommodation of our mem bers.
The success of last years business
may be judged from the following
statement of average net returns,
stated in periods as follows. May l4-l9,
81. Is; May 20-24, s3.O3; May 25-29,
s2.45; May 30-June 3, s2.O3; June As,
SLIT; June 9-13, S1.51; June 14-l8,
s1.75; June 1928, s1.1O; June 24-20,
S-.9S.
The total average for the season was
Sl.S5 3-5 per crate. This is about 13
cents per crate better than the average
secured by The Oregon Fruit Union
for the Hood River berries handled by
them. Had we quit shipping at the same
time with The Oregon Fruit Union,
our average would have been about
20 cents better. Our union expenses
amounted to 2-5 per cent on net re-
turns. A good share OF this went to
pay for warehouse and to create a re-
serve fund of about $500, with which
to start next seasons business.
The writer was sent east to make
disposition of car load shipments.
The expense of agent did not exceed
1t per cent on net returns. A single
days work in Omaha is known to have
saved more than the entire expense of
the trip through Utah, Colorado, Neb-
raska, and as far as Sioux City, Iowa.
The whole amount lost by failure to
collect was less than $40, This was
made good to the growers out of the
union funds. Mr.. H. F. Davidson is
the efficient secretary and shipping
agent. A Portland bank is the deposit
tory of the funds and growers receive
checks at any time for amounts due
them. Shipments are usually billed to
the union itself and it would puzzle a
bureau of information to know the
final destination as car may be di-
verted at any time. We prefer to get
our own information and try to see
that "our folks" are not out-generaIed.
Our experience goes to show that a
local union is all there is any use for.
1t should maintain it's own Individual
ity and independence and "refuse to
surrender
The great majority of our growers
now believe in the local union. We
were Incorporated in 1893.
OF course nothing succeeds like sac
cess"

A weu-Preserved Idol.

According to the Nooksack Re-
porter, an idol has been discovered on
DR.. Thompson IS ranch, near Nooksack,
in good state OF preservation. The
idol is carved out of lava, is twenty
one inches high; widest breadth across
the face and neck is sixteen inches
and the bust five inches long. The
carving preserves true lines, and the
whole figure reminds one of Phoeni-
clan handiwork, as recently uncovered
in portions Of Central America. The
bust carving, in defining the arms,
makes nearly perfect keystone of the
base, with smaller one on the breast.
No hieroglyphics are visible. The
block has been about seven inches in
the thickest part, but portion of The
back has been broken off, probably
struck by plow share.

The Oro Fino Saloon Broken Into and the
Cash Register Carried Away.
Sometime between II and 8 3o'clock
this this morning burglars broke into
the Orc Fino saloon and carried off
the cash register and three boxes of
cigars. Entrance was effected through
the back door by breaking the glass so
that the burglar could reach his hand
through and unfasten the bolt with
which the door was fastened. When
the saloon was closed at about u
O'Clock, all the money, except one dol
lar in small change, was taken out of
the front part of the register, and the
register locked, though there were
few dollars in an envelope in the back
part of the register, which the burglars
did not find. The register was taken.
to the vacant lot back of the Michel
bach buildirg G, where it was broken
open. Mr.. Bruhlmen, when deliver.
ing milk about 8 o'clock that morning,
saw the register by the side of the
street, and recognizing it as belonging
to the Ora Fino, notified the barkeepor,
Chris Kabe, who at once repaired to
the saloon and discovered it had been
burglarized..
Mr.. Keller, proprietor of the saloon,
desires to extend his compliments to
the burglar or burglars, and says the
next time they are sorely pressed for
dollar if they will call on him, he will
donate the amount rather than have
them go TO the trouble of breaking
into his saloon. The burglars evil

sibly be caught ere long.
