Hood River has a reputation for
fine fruits which she must work hard
to maintain, remarked Henry Howe,
who is up from Roseburg to do some
work on his homestead at Mount
Hood. The Medford people have
some very fine fruit, and they will
make every effort to defeat Hood Riv-
er for the prizes at the Lewis and
Clark fair, ~ continued Mr.. Howe.
'There is one serious thing the
Medford growers have to contend
with, and that is the shabby way in
which most of the farmers put up
their apples. They pack fruit in that
country in any sort of box, soap
box, coal-oil box and the like. They
have not learned how to make an
attractive pack.
Neither have they learned to
spray as the Hood River orchardists.
Three times in one year is considered
sufficient down there, and then they
lose all faith in spraying because
there are just as many worms in the
apples as before they sprayed at all. p"
Mr.. Howe came to Hood River in
1880, and is therefore entitled to be
called one of the pioneers of the val
ley. He is at present employed as
clerk in the Roseburg land office. He
still looks upon Hood River as his
home.

AIM TO REGULATE
THE FRUIT MARKET

The Northwest Horticulturist of Ia
coma makes the following announce
ment:
Fruit shipping associations are con-
tinuing to improve in their methods
from year to year. This is due both
to practice and because of increased
bulk of product. Evey year there is
better cooperation between different
fruit sections. 1t is probable that the
Hood River Fruit Growers Union,
the Puyallup Association and the
Vashon Association will unite on one
representative salesman each at Hell
ena, Butte and Great Falls, also at
other points east.
At local points it is likely in each of
seveal places that one broker will act
for several associations. Fruit covers
are determined as much as possible to
fix prices in each of the different mar
kets. Jobbers and commission mer-
chants buying will handle on a fixed
basis and as soon as any market is
likely to be overstocked, the represen-
tative will advise shipping managers
send fruit elsewhere. One of the i'm
portant features for any fruit shipping
association is to adhere to strict rules
of picking and packing. The inspec-
tiOn should be very thorough when
the boxes are put into crates. A little
difference or error here caused much
loss to one association last year. And
it is a fact that all members of ship
ping association suffer alike when
there is one poor packer. Individual
members must not only watch their
own pack, but should adopt system
preventing a single member from
putting in fruit unfit to ship, for the
penalty falls ON all alike for any error
committed.

Rural Northwest Fruit Notes.

According to the Medford Mail, be-
tween $500 and 5000 acres of new or
chards have been set out in Jackson
county, Oregon, the past season.
The strawberry crop at Florin. Cal
ifornia, commenced ripening earlier
and faster this year than ever before.
1t is probable that it will be out of
the way before Oregon berries begin
to ripen, although if we continue to
have warm sunny weather and no
frosts Oregon Strawberries will be on
the market two or three weeks earlier
than usual.
1t is rather peculiar that while we
have had much less rainy weather
than usual in Oregon this winter,
there has been much more than the
culinary amount of rain in California
The conditions are at present more
than ordinarily favorable for a fine
fruit crop the coming season.

PARK PROGRAM.

tages to be derived from

likely to be surpassed for many

The concluding number out
lined in convincing manner all
that was commendable in the life
of John Paul Jones and, by trac-
ing his career from a seaman's
apprentice at twelve years of age
until his death at forty-fve, the
author essayed to prove by we'll

ject of his sketch was indeed the
"father of the American navy" and,
as such, was deserving of a rest

bow before the circle and by his
tact, no less than by the fairness
and thoroughness with which he
reviewed the program, fully sus-
tanned the presidents judgment
in rendering him the appointment.
Following his report the circle
adjourned to meet again two
weeks hence, when it will observe
the 18th anniversary of it's exist
ence as an organization.

One of the largest excursions
of the season visited the prison
last Thursday afternoon. It came
from Lake City, MINI, and we
imagine that the town was all here.
Warden Wolfer extended to them
the privileges of the prison and
had a large escort provided for
taking them through the establish
ment. The crowd was very orderly
and passed through the various
departments without any accident
occurring. Some Of the men who
had never seen the inside of a
penitentiary, acted trifle uneasy,
and their countenances wore a
troubled expression. Every now
and then they placed their hand
on their watch pocket, and located
their pocketbook, and the way
some Of them held on their best
girl was a caution. However
their precautions were unnecessary
The prisoners were as busy az
bees manufacturing Irvine, shoes
etc., and paid no attention to the
vast throng as it wendell it's way
through the shops. No doubt
many of the visitors were very
interested in all they saw, and will
talk of their trip to Minnesota
famous penitentiary for some
time to come.
