81 FOR
2S-OUNCE APPLE
FAIR PEOPLE AFTER A BIG ONE
Additional Premium for Each Ounce
Exceeding This Weight-Fine
Fruit Secured Here

W. L. Johnson, superintendent of
the horticultural exhibit at the Lewis
and Clark exposition, who was in
Hood River Saturday securing apples
for the Oregon display, wishes the
Glacier to state that the state com
mission has standing offer of 81 for
every 2S-ounce apples brought to the
horticultural building. Mr. johnson
says an additional 81 will be paid for
each ounce above 2S.
Washington is growing over an ap-
pie weighing 26l4 ounces, aud the Or
egOn commissioners are anxious to eX-
ceed this weight. At the Chicago
fair, Baker county had the biggest ap-
pie, which tipped the scales at 81
ounces. At St Louis an Arkansas
apple weighed 30 ounces.
Probably the largest peach ever eX-
hibited at any exhibition, is on dis
play from Ashland, and was grown 10y
Max Pracht. The California people
say this takos the lead over anything
they ever saw, aud are willing to ad-
init they can show nothing like it,,
The peach weighs 26 ounces and nat
urally causes great deal of comment.
While here Mr.. johnson was taken
over the valley by his cousin, Profes.
sor G. d. Thompson, and he returned
Monday with the promise of 50 boxes
of fine Hood River apples. Commis-
,ioner liibhard has arranged to aug
ment the Wasco county booth with Ii
boxes of fresh apples, and taken alto
gether, thi should help considerably
the appearance Of the Oregon fruit

BUY CARLOAD
JERSEY COWS
FIND CEEAM ROUTE PROFITABLE
Mount Hood Farmers Import Herd If
Tested Jerseys from the
willamette Valley

A carload of tested Jerseys has been
purchased by the Mount Hood farmers
interested in the cream route. The
COWS reached here Saturday night and
were taken the next day to the upper
valley. The herd was secured by the
Hazelwood people from near Wood
burn.
Among the Mount Hood farmers
taking some of the COWS we're NJ. Du-
mas, two; |. U. Lafferty, four; Rob
ert Leasure, two; j. A. Knowles, FIVE.
There were about two dozen in the
carload.
Mount Hood is one of the ideal dairy
sections of the state, and the farmers
are early taking advantage of this
fact. While pastures in other parts
of the state are becoming dry and
feed is scarce, clover in the meadows
of the upper valley are waxing green,
and the farmers gathering in the
shekels as they cash in their cream
checks, with butter tat bringing 81 i
cents a pound.
The Hoo1 River farmers consider
the creamery business paying one,
and intend by this time next year to
have silos in readiness for storing
green fodder for winter feeding,

Ode to Hood River.

The following ode was recently sent
to an Eastern friend by resident
here who formerly lived in the same
locality:
Come to Hood Riverl o, why don't
you come?
Where 'skeeters are scarce, likewise
old rum;
Come to Hood River If you can't
get wealth,
You'll find something better-Comfort
and health.
Where factories will grow when more
get their senses,
Where grades will be safer with a few
needful fences
Where you see Mount Hood, so fair
and 80 high,
With its cap of white snow resting
'gainst the blue sky
Where flowers in beauty are seen
spring and fail,
And never freeze stiff with the first
windy squall;
Where no stagnant water is found on
the land,
Where q ride on the Columbia is both
cheap and grand.
Where the trees keep their verdure
throughout the whole year,
And children grow up without so
much fear;
Where churches and schools are keep
ing apace,
And marching ahead-no saloons in
| the race.
So come to Hood River Oh, please
don't delay;
There mosquitoes abuse you-why do
you stay? j. A. ii.

WILL REPLACE
Mill AT ONCE

Men are at work now replacing the
burned Green Point mill. A small
saw mill will be placed in position at
once to get out the timbers for the
larger mill, construction work on
which will begin at once. This new
mill will have double band saws and
when operated at full capacity will
cut 200, 600 feet of lumber on a ten
hour run.
II. Smith one of the new members
of the re- organized Davenport Bros.
Lumber Co. was in Hood River Mon
day. He stated that the new com.
pany is now in process of organiza.
tion which work will be completed
within a couple of weeks.
Messrs. Stanley Il Smith hope to
have the large mill completed within
80 days. Deep SHOWS may prevent the
operation of the mill this winter but
work will start up the first thing next
spring when payroll of over 500 a
day will be placed in circulation.
The new mill will be one of the larg-
est in the state. The Inmann- Poulsen
mill at Portland Is operated night and
day and is turning out 400, 900 feet of
lumber in the N-hour run.

The Editors at Play.

A. Bennett in Irrigon Irrigator.
Hood River held an apple fair,
And other fruits she showed;
Some garden truck was also there,
And sweet cider freely flowed.
The editors did also meet
Upon the self same day;
And it was a picture sweet
70 see the editors at play.
The editors went to the fair,
To see the fruit SO fine;
But when once they entered there
They quickly formed in line.
For just inside the entrance door
They heard summons sweet;
"CGme, try our cider, drink galore,
Hood River stands the treat.
There they stopped and there they
stood
And drank and drunk and drunl
and drank;
Being free, they knew twas good,
And each one filed his tank.
And now those editors will write
OF fruits from off the apple tree; ;
But in truth these lines indite-
None got past that cider free.
The above "pOme" was written a
the apple fair and editorial meeting
at Hood River last year 1t was tn
intention of the writer to give 1t t.
Mr.. Moe, of the Glacier, at the time
But Hood River cider had peculiarl.
exhilarating effect, and "pomes" ant
various other things, including on
hotel bill, were forgotten.

HAS GOLD NUGGETS
FROM Mccoy CREEK

John Dark was in from Mccoy
creek Tuesday with several ounces of
yellow nuggets, which ne was exhibit
ing on the streets of Hood River,
where they caused buzz of excite
ment.
Dark has been at Mccoy creek the
greater part of the summer working
assessments on the placer claims of
his and Anne Underwood He will
return to do additional work on tlib
quartz diggings, and probably spend
two months there. He already has
four tunnels in the mountain side !;
one l03 feet In depth, another 80 feet,
a third 46, and the fourth 30 feet.
Prospects for pay ore get brighter
every week.
Conover, an old California miner,
is working with Dark. He is well sat
isfied there is a fortune in sight for
Dark and Uncle Anne. "Rock like
this would produce such an excl e
ment on the Snake river that you
could easily sell your claim for $780,
600, " says Conover.
Dark has struck vein of copper,
some of which assayed nearly 50 per
cent pure metal. G. II. Robards Of
this city has a sample of the ore, and
he is convinced it will pay big.

MUST CLEAN YARDS
OR SUFFER ARREST

The subject of overflowing cesspools
and ill-kept back yards in the bust
ness blocks came before the council
Monday night. Councilman Moe of
the health committee reported that
DR.. G. II. Jenkins had entered
complaint of an overhowing cesspool
from the Marcellus cottage on Q street
and asked the council for relief.
Councilman Early asserted that
there we're frequent remarks by citi-
zens of the town that the council
should do something to keep the sew
ers clean, and as all parties had been
notified often enough, he deemed II
time that the marshal made arrests of
those parties who continued to main
tain nuisances which endangered she
health of the community. Other
members of the council were of the
opinion that examples should be made
in this manner. If no other method
was effective.
The unclean condition Of other sew
ers and back yards was discussed and
Mayor Blowers concluded the author.
ity to abate such nuisances rested
with the board of health, which has
full power to act.
The sewer committee has struck a
snag, and it must be two weeks before
a complete report can be furnished.
According to the amended city char.
ter, Engineer Paget must prepare q
| description of the boundaries of the
sewer district of the city. No lot oI
position of lot which cannot b(
drained by the proposed sewer system
cannot be included within the district
to be assessed without invalidatin[
the entire system. After consultation
with Attorney Wilson, the sewer com
mittee at once secured communication
with Engineer Paget, who will com
plete his work of running the boun
daries before the next regular session
of the city council.
Ordinance No. 100, amending a pre-
vious ordinance providing for the
