To Protect Americans. Too.

The facts which have developed have
caused public men TO think more deeply
on the subject OF American trade than
ever before. IL was because or the
strict sanitary regulations Of Germany
that American meats were first Oh
tected To In that country and II was To
meet the foreign conditions that the
government inspection was provided.
The Investigations OF the agricultural
department have shown that u was
Imperative to protect Americans
against the cupldity ~ American
tradesmen OF all kinds and recent revel-
ations have brought acutely To the
front the necessity for the most string
ent regulations of all food products.
There Is no disposition TO impose eN-
cessIve burdens on the packers. but the
government In desperately Ia earnest IN
the matter and II will not stop until
n has provided regulations which make
a. absolutely certain that American
consumers OF American products are
not Imposed upon. The government
also takes the position that u viii b..
InfinItely better for the cattle interests
and the packing interests as well ~
FOR ~ whole world To understand that
only pure food products can come from
American houses.
The president has sent copies of the
NELL report To the managers OF all
packing houses and asked them 20
point out any misstatements.

tust how infinitely the NELL report
goes into the sanitary conditions OF
the Chicago packing houses. The pres
ident has not given binding promise
10 keep this report from the public.

The president saw that the Idaho SEN

thought n imperative To secure the pas
sage OF the Beveridge bill. From the
moment the Idaho senator was ac-
auainted with the facts he became most

~ Underwood, Aug. ~, l9Oo.
Editor Glacier: 0
Hood River people generally seem to
think that they are cit" when it
comes to getting big returns from
their fruit, but that Is mainly duA to
the fact that Underwood is yet to be
heard from.
Our county is new, aud we have
but few trees Of bearing age, but what
few we have are setting mark that
other growers will find 1t difficult to
surpass. While, when it comes to
growing peaches, Underwood stands
in class by itsclf. Kelly & Dubois
have three trees of Hales Early, 8
years old, that have borne since they
we're three years old, every year.
The trees now measure rs feet in di-
ameter and rs feet in circumference
and l6 feet high. This year they
picked So twenty pound boxes fIom
each tree, which sold for $50 per tree,
$50 for the three trees, yielding net
profit from the three trees OF S75.
The trees ale planted "a feet apart
which would allow rs trees to the
acre. Now figure out the returns
from an acre if you dare. The aver
age retrun for the last three years is
trifle over $3.50 per tree, and even
this figure looks good to us, when we
stop to think that we do not have to
irrigate or spray this crop, which re-
lieves US of two very heavy items
in the expense account.
Now why in the name of all that ls
wonderful will people even stop to
see Hood Rivers 81, 200 an acre land
when land that will yield over 81, OOC
per acre in our crop can be had here
for 150 per acre. Kelley Il Dubois
have 800 two-year- old trees, that is
yearling trees planted two years ago,
from which they can expect to begin
picking peaches this week.
". +. Cash has tree of Crawfords,
% years old that is loaded to breaking
with fine fruit, as it is every year, and
yet people outside of Underwood tel
US this is an off year for peaches.
Underwood is certainly the peach
section of the Hood River fruit dis
trict. Come and see for yourself, g
card to our post master will secure
you a rig.

TREATED TO
COATING OF OIL

Baker sfield's streets are fast assum.
ing a pleasing aspect under the coat
ing Of oil which Street Superintendent
Yancey is applying to them.
At the meeting of the city trustees
three weeks ago it was decided to use
the heavier grade of oil and the con-
tract for furnishing 1915 gravel quail.
ity was forthwith awarded to II. A.
Blodget, his being the only bid before
the board for that grade.
No time has been lost in getting the
oil and applying it, and today more
than half the improved streets in
Bakersfield have received their annual
baptism of the dark fluid.
To say that there is great improve.
ment in conditions Is putting it mild
ly. Where several weeks ago there
was several inches of dust, the streets
are now packed smooth in many
places, assuming the appearance Of as
phalt.
The application of oil to the streets
has been carried on in Bakersfield fol
number of years and many streets
have now reached stage of perfec-
tion where little or no further expense
is necessary. For new street that
has never before been oiled the CON
tract calls for ll5 BARI els to the block,
costing at the present contract price
about S75 per block for the oil ap
piled. This is the maximum applioa
tion and the cost ranges from the
above figure down to So or SIG pei
block, according to the am ount of OF
used.
A specially designed sprinkler il
used in spreading the oil which hat
been previously heated to tempeIa
ture of 200 degrees. After the oil has
been allowed to soak into the surface
for a short time slide or drag con
structod of timbers is used to thor
oughly mix the oil and dirt. Wher
this operation has been completed
sand is spread upon the street il
places where too much oil has col
lected to thoroughly mix with the
soil.
The foregoing plan of application
has been found very successful in Bak
ersheld with one or two exceptions
the failures being noted in localities
where the streets have loamy forma
tion or where the soil is composed o
clay and loan. In such cases the dirt
fails to pack properly and has ten
dency to creep and form holes in the
surface. Plans are under considera
tion to remedy these Objectionable
features and hopes are entertained
that successful method will soon b'
found to overcome them.
MI. Yancy, when seen last evening
by Californian representtive, stated
that in the course of ten or twelve
days the present annual oiling will b.
completed, which gives us the wei
come assurance that for the balance
of the summer Bakersfield will bt
