Mork Of the FrnIt Growers' Unlon.


G.J. Gessling, secretary Of the Hood
River Fruit Growers Union, has com
pleted partial report Of the work done
bv him as shipping agent for the mem-
hers Of the union during the 1902 straw
berry season. When seen by Glacier
man Mr. Gessling gave out the iol-
lowing:
"a rough examination Of the books o.
the union show that about 26,OOO crates
OF strawberries were handled this season
by the Hood River Fruit Growers Unlon'
and that the collections for the same
amounted to nearly $4,000. The inde-
pendent shippers shipped about 6,ooo
crates. which brought in an additional
$4,000. This makes the total returns
Of the valley from the strawberry crop
foot up to something between sl2o'oUo
and sl25,OOO."
When questioned regarding the gen.
eral condition Of the strawberry business
in Hood River, Mr.. Gessling SAID;
"There are two things which must pe
consistently followed out by the growers
if they expect the paying returns O 'he
future as they have received in the past
and these are thorough cultivation and
fertilization and more systematic meth
ods in fruit packing. Nearly one-tour'h
Of the strawberries shipped this year
were simply second-class berries fhe
demand for frst-class berries was away
above the supply, but there is very
limited demand for second-class goods
at any price. The inability to secure
sufficient pickers during the crltlca'
point of the busy season is the most se-
rious difficulty confronting the growers
at the present time. There must also
be a continuous use Of irrigation to pre-
vent the berries becoming too small Tor
shipment.

The prospects are that Hood River
win soon have system of water works
for fire protection well on the road to
completion. The town has been too
long without protection against fire,
and the attempt to arrange for sys-
tenn which would meet the best inter
ests of all concerned has proved hard
question for the city council The
question has been thoroughly discussed
from all sides and there is no reason
why the city should not get the best
there was to be had. The present prop
osition appears to meet the approval OF
majority of the members of the coun-
Gil and is likely to be accepted at its
next meeting. If so, Hood River may
rightly expect proper fire protection
and reduced insurance rates within the
next wear.

It is be- lieved that the government could construct this reservoir much cheap CT than a private corporation or even the county alone. Hence the particular desire that the county secure government aid.
