BERRY Growers
ELECT DIRECTORS
ANNUAL REPORT Is MADE.
Shortage of Cars is Regarded
as the Most Serious Prob
lem Confronting Strawberry
Growers of Hood River.
ANNUAL REPORT is MADE.

The regular annual meeting OF the
stockholders of the Hood River Fruit
Growers Union was held in Artisan
hall last Saturday morning. About lot
strawberry growers turned out and
made this one of the best annual meet
ings ever held by the berry men. The
principal business was the reading OF
Secretary Gesslings annual report for
1908, and the election of new board ol
directors.
President H. ]. Hibbard raped for
order at 10 80 o'clock. Roll call showed
"a quorum, a majority of the paldup
shares of stock, present The minutes
of the last annual meeting stood ap'
proved as read. Secretary Gessling
made his report, and the same was inn
mediatly accepted.
Then followed an hour of general dis
cussion on the marketing OF strawber-
ries. A great many questions on
various points OF interest were brought
out, all of which Mr.. Gessling gladly
and promptly answered, his four
years service as secretary OF the union
having given him vast amount OF ex-
perience and knowledge in the business
In reply to numerous questions, Mr.
Gessling stated that the most serious
problem confronting the strawberry
growers is the inability to secure the
kind of cars wanted. The southern
lines have notified the shippers that
they will not handle cars with ordinary
equipment on their passenger trains,
and as there are only a few passenger
equipped freight cars, it looks as IT Hood
River would be shorter Of the desired
kind of cars next year than this. The
Pacific Express company are trying to
get the Wabash people to build them
some cars, but it is very doubtful
whether they will be built in time to
handle next years crop. The Northern
Pacific has go paper-wheel cars, and SO
of these we're loaded out OF here with
strawberries this year, and 1--WE would
all have been saved great deal of our
trouble had we been able to get all the
Northern Pacific cars needed" contin-
ued Mr.. Gessling.
at is impossible at the present time
to say what the prospects for next
wears markets will be, as great deal
depends on the time our berries ripen
as compared to the time Of the southern
crop.
at will be very necessary for the
union to expand its market next year,
To do this, we must put an experienced
fruit man in the Colorado, Iowa, Ne
braska and Kansas markets to work up
a trade"
Mr.. Gessling also called attention to
the necessity of first-elass pack, better
than ever before, as he thought in all
probability the berries would be longer
ON the road, and unless they are well
and carefully packed they will not stand
the trip.
Just before the noon hour, nomina-
tions were made for five members OF the
hoard of directors. Six names we're
offered-E. n. Benson, Hon. T. R. Coon,
A. f. Franz, G. J. Gessling, f. H.

Apples in the Klickitat Valley.
Portland Oregonian.

Fine specimens of some ten we'll
known varieties of apples and five
promising seedlings have been sent to
the permanent exhibit by A. L. Baker,
Of Goldendale, who is confident that the
Klickitat valley is destined to rival the
Hood River valley as an napple producing
region. Klickitat valley is just across
the river from The Dalles, over the sum-
NIT of the hills, and is a large and fer
tile section, formerly fine cattle range,
but of late years cut up into farms and
settled. Goldendale, the seat of gov
ernment, is connected with Lyle by rail-
road. The apples sent in are equal to

the best, the Gloria Mundi, Bittenheim-
er, Ben Davis and other varieties, being
of large size, firm and bright colored.
The seedlings are all promising and of
fine color, free from all blemishes and
long keepers. One called the Snow, has
flesh nearly as white as snow. There is
no apparent reason why the Klickitat
valley should not produce as fine apples
as any other. and the climate is such
as to color them to perfection, which is
an important point.

Only Makes a Bad Natter Worse.

Perhaps you have never thought of it,
but the fact must be apparent to
every one, that constipation is caused
by lack of water in the system, and
the use OF drastic cathartics like the old
fashioned pills only makes bad matter
worse. Chamberlain's Stomach and
Liver Tablets are much more mild and
gentle in their effect, and when the
proper dose is taken their action is so
natural that one can hardly realize it is
the effect of medicine. Try % cent

Pleasant 10 Take.

The finest quality of granulated LOAF
sugar is used in the manufacture Of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, and the
roots used in its preparation give it a
flavor similar to maple syrup, making it
quite pleasant to take. w. /. Roderick
Of Poolesville, Nd, in speaking of this
remedy says: 81 have used Cham ber-

Carelessness is responsible for many a
railway wreck and the same causes are
making human wrecks of sufferers from
throat and lung troubles. But since the
advent of DR.. Kings New Discovery for

less resignation is no longer necessary.

Jackson County's Apple and Pear Crop

jackson C0unty'S Apple ana Fear Crop.
The Ashland Tidings says the gather.
ing of the apple crop in the Rogue
River valley in Jackson county, Oregon,
has been practically completed. A
conservative estimate of the crop made
by Hon. John b. Dwell places the ex-
portation Of apples from that district
this season at from 150 to l75 carloads.
OF this amount go carloads will 90 from
Central Point, 60 from Medford, IA from
Talent, 10 from Ashland and few
cars from Phoenix and Gold Hill. The
prices being paid the growers are the
best in the history of the industry in
that county. Yellow Newtowns and
Spitzeabergs are commanding from 81
to $l.50 per box I. o. b., and Ben Davis
75c to 81. 1t is estimaeed that the aver
age price for all the apples shipped will
be $l.25 per box, which will make the
returns for the apple crop about
$l25,000
The pear shipments from the same
territory amount this year to rs car
loads, most of which have been shipped
from Medford, the Voorhies orchards
supplying large share. The varieties
shipped have been Bartlett, Buerre DAN
jou, Buerre Clairgeau and Winter Nellis,
and the average price has been $110
per box, making the total returns for
pears amount to little over $4,000.

Awaits Reports from Hood River.

Newburg Graphic.
1t appears from looking over the Gla-
cier that Hood River people are resting
from their big apple and strawberry
stories, and are bending all their ener-
gies to telling the largest Irish potato
yarn. One man left seven potatoes at
the Glacier Office that together weighed
20 pounds. Another brought in spud
that measured nineteen inches from
stem to blossom end.A A modest correspon-
dent wrote in that they didn't raise very
big potatoes out their way but that one
farmer had dug l25 sacks from one acre
but admitted in rather crestfallen
manner that one man could lift any
one potato in the mans patch. We
blush to conjecture what next weeks
Glacier may bring forth.

CROWDS HEAR REV. BOEN
Christian Revival Still in Prog
ress-A Novel Meeting
For Tonight.

Perhaps the largest week night
crowd OF the meeting was gath
cred last night to hear Rev. Boen.
The power Of his preaching is
shown by the perfect attention Of
his audiences and his ability TO
hold interest from being to end /,
even those in buggies who drive
up on the outside for few
moments stay until the close.
Rev. Boen announces q novel
meeting for tonight. He will
preach d sermon to men only and
also to women only and wants
both to be present. He says be will
have nothing TO say to the men
that the ladies cannot hear and
nothing to say to the ladies that
the men cannot hear, but he pro-
poses to divide them, the ladies
on one side the men on the other,
so they can not nudge each
other and say hes going for you
now" The novelty OF this
method and the originality OF the
Evangelist himself will doubtless
see the immense amphitheatre
packed tonight.
