According to the Chicago Fruit and
Produce News, New York apple grow
ers are experiencing difficulty in dis
posing Of their crop Of apples. Apple
buyers do not care to take the fruit at
the prices asked by the growers, and
but little fruit is going into cold storage,
the buyers stating they would rather
pay a higher price in the spring than to
buy for 81 now. Present receipts Of
winter fruit are selling Baldwins at
Sl,25 to 81 80 ;Greeningsat $l.l2 to$l.25,
with some fancy Greetings occasionally
bringing $l.50. Every man who han

FIRST NATIONAL
IN new HOME

The First National bank is now lo-
Gated in the new quarters in the +. i.
Smith brick on the southeast corner OF
Oak and Third streets. The new rooms
were built especially for the bank, and
the idea of convenience has been carried
out in every instance. The furnishings
are elegant and substantial, and of a
character that will lend a favorable inn
preston to all visitors.
The bank entrance is on Oak street.
The floor of the passageway Is covered
with tiling, and in this Mr. Smith takes
pardonable pride, when he tells OF
erecting the first pressed brick building
in Hood River, laying the first cement
sidewalk and the first tiled floor,
In the rear of the building is the di-
rectors room, which will shortly be
supplied with carpet, council label
and other furniture. Large plate-glass
windows supply an abundance of soft
light to all desks in the Office. Heat
will be supplied from furnace to be
installed in the main building. Every
| thing about the bank is neat, comfort
able and convenient.
A large vault, absolutely fire proof,
affords ample room for storing docu-
ments and valuable papers, while n
manganese double time-lock combina-
ton safe holds the coin and currency
necessary for the daily business transac-
tions. This safe was secured at cost
Of $4,000, and is said to be the best-tested
positively burgar-proof safe that is
manufactured.
The First National bank opened its
doors in May Of this year. The growth
of business has been steady and com
mensurate with the progress OF Hood
River and the valley. The banking
work keeps Cashier Blanchar and Mr..
Brock, the bookkeeper very busy all the
time. Mr.. Blanchar, in conversation
with Glacier reporter, stated that he
is we'll satisfsd with the business his
banking house has developed during the
six months it has been in operation.
"The fact that Hood River is two
bank town will help the community in
many ways" continued Mr.. Blanchar,
"and while the growth of banking
business must necessarily be slow and
conservative, we have shown our faithin
the future of Hood River by substan-
tial outlay in banking fixtures. Banks
cannot prosper without prosperous
country behind them, nor can the
country get along without the banks.
"The First National bank has placed
u number of loans throughout the valley
this summer, and believe in this way
good deal OF business has been devel-
oped for the bank The Hood River
country has a splendid future before it,
and we look for good business in the
next few years"
The First National bank of Hood
River has paid up capital OF $4,000.
Its shareholders liabilities equal $25, 900,
and there is surplus OF 5000. The
officers of the bank are Robert Smith,
president; f. S. Stanley, vice president ;
+. o. Blanchar, cashier. The directors
are Robert Smith, F. S. Stanley, f. l.,
Smith, j. G. Ainsworth and F, II. Hop
kins.

The rooms in the Morse 4 Early
building on Third street, where II. W.
Wait, proprietor Of the Farmers
Friend Feed Store, began business less
than year ago, were too cramped for
the rapidly growing business Of this
firm, and during the week Mr.. Wait
moved his stock into the large ware
house vacated by Mr., Rand.
Mr.. Wait hasn't put in steps to the
door yet, but promises to, and is fitting
up one corner for an office.
The Farmers Friend Feed Store sold
$1,000 apple boxes this fall, as well as a
large amount OF -four, feed, hay and
grain. Mr.. Wait has now introduced a
folding hallock for strawberries that
should sell like hot tamales. The hal.
lock is constructed Of spruce, and with
zig-zag cut in the bottom OF the box il
is perfectly collapsible. But when
pressed into position the box is as firm
as the old style hallocks. The great
convenience in hauling and storing
knockdown berry boxes is a strong
point In their favor. A farmer can haul
them out during the rainy season and
put up his own crates, thus saving time
and expense,
