of stone, pressed brick or concrete
tIocks, in anJ event, the building
will be constr ucted to conform to the
ideals OF beauty and symmetry, as
we'll as utility, and thus enhance the
prominent corner which it occupies.
The building will be but one story
high at the present time, but it viii
can be conveniently added in the fu.
tuIe. 1t will have full basement
55x25 feet, and will be cited tor rent
al purposes. The main entrance will

bank il we'll and favorahly known. j.
Ii. Osborne, vice-president, aud h.
W. Pratt, the cashier, are both men
OF sterling business integrity, and aIe
forming large circle of friends in
the city and valley. The advent OF
such men into our city and valley to
invest their capital is one of the most
efficient means OF advertising. We
predict that the same measure of pros

banking institutions of our city viii
ultimately be their reward.

A Glacier reporter stepped into
George Slocum's store on last Thurs
day morning to invest in penny
pencil, and as George was about to
hand out the penny graphite, the re-
porter inquired, George, what does
all this noise mean back here?" The
genial proprietor then took us by the
arm, and whispered in confidence,
"We have completely outgrown our
present quarters, and are compelled
to enlarge the establishment. "
Upon Investigation we found several
teams at work excavating for the
stone foundation, which will be put
in place by Zolls & Sons. The super
structure will be of brick and will Ee
under the supervision OF FIedericks
g. Arnold, who have the contract for
its erection. This improvement will
afford 625 square feet of additional
floor space, which will be divided be-
tween the book and jewelry depart
ments of Messrs. Slocum and Lara
way.
The improvement is being made by
George Slocum and keir & Cass, who
have a long term lease on the proper
ty. The increase of business of this
popular drug firm has made it neces-
sary for them to increase their quar-
ters. They will also add 625 square
feet of floor space to their present
store room by virtue of this addition.
The building when completed will be
remodeled on the interior, and finish
ed to conform to the latest models
and designs of utility and beauty. w.
+. Laraway will project plant of the
most recent designs for the grinding
of lens, examination of the eyes, and
all that is necessary in a 1rst class
optical department. Mr.. Laraway will
also install set of the latest patterns
of rolls and crucibles and will give
special attention to the manufacturing
of solid gold jewelry and hand made
diamond mountings, 1t is the pur-
pose OF Mr.. Laraway to do the high
class work in this department Of his
business.
The building now occupied by the
Stewart Hardware q Furniture Co.
will soon be enlarged. The company
has purchased the lot due west OF
their present location. 1t is Their
purpose to erect three story brick
building thereon; this will provide
10, 600 square feet of floor space ex.
elusive of gallery provisions. Mr..
Stewart stated to a reporter that the
company was also negotiating for the
present site and building, and in case
the purchase can be made they will
proceed to erect three story brick
the entire length of the block, which
would give them 80, 600 square feet Of
floor room exclusive of galleries.
MIR. Stewart has been in the hard
ware and furniture business for many
years. He is considered to be one OF
the best buyers on the coast. The
phenominal growth of his business is
an evidence that he is wise seller.
If thespresent plans to build and
enlarge are fully consumated the
Stewart Hardware g. Furniture Co.
will have one of the best appointed
retail establishments in the state east
OF Portland.

APPLE GROWERS
UNION MEETS
IMPORTANT SUBJECTS DISCUSSED
Largest Gathering in History Of Orga.
nizati0n-New Board Of Di-
reetOrs Elected.

The Apple Growers union of Hood
River valley held their annual meet
ing last Saturday, April 6, in the Ar
tisan's hall at / 80 D. m. Shortly sf-
ter the doors we're opened the spaci-
GUS hall was filled TO overfiowing.
This was the largest gathering in the
history OF the organization. Upwards
of one hundred shares of stock we're
represented at this meeting and all
we're enthusiastic In the advocacy OF
their opinions concerning matters
that appertained to the interest of the
union.
4 Many vital subjects we're discussed.
The stockholders realized that the fu-
ture success Of the organization de-
pended upon correct solution of the
problems confronting it, with this
thought in mind, the action of the
body was directed along the most con-
servative lines.
1t was conceded by all present that
the Hood River Fruit Growers union
must be perpetuated In order to Sc
cure the highest margins for the vast
tically demonstrated that the policy
of individual consignments was runius
to the best interests of the producer.
The report Of the secretary was un-
usually lengthy because the business
of the past year had Eeen without q
parallel in the history of the organiza-
tion. The large gathering listened at.
tentively to every word of the report;
for it was this record of the past
years profit and loss that was to
serve as guide for their present act
ion.
One Of the most vital subjects dis
cussed was 1.-The Necessity for Pro-
viding Superior Labels for Boxes"
Ibis was discussed plo and con. Many
of the members grew eloquent as they
advocated the value of placing the
very best labels obtainable upon their
fancy fruits. 1t was conceded that
this item would add largely to the ex-
pense account. 1t was ordered how
ever, that no expense be spared in
this regard and the new board OF d.
rectors we're instructed to act accord
ingly.
A new scale for the handling of ap-
pies will be placed into effect the
coming season. The present system Is
that of fixed charge OF five cents per
box. The new system will be on
percentage basis with minimum OF
five cents per box and maximum of
10 cents per box. The purpose Of his
sliding scale Is to fix higher rate ON
the fancy fruit, in order that 1t might
bear better proportion OF the bur-
den according to its selling price.

Meeting Of Bonded Irrigating District.

The electo,s of the Hood River
Bonded lrrigating District held a
call meeting at the Barrett school
house on last Friday evening. S. A.
Skinner, president of the company,
presiding, q. L. Markham, secretary.
The meeting was attended ty about
80 OF the electors. Chairman Skinner
stated that the object of the meeting
was to get the opinions Of the voters
relative to the construction work for
the future. A statement was made
showing that it would not be possible
to complete the ditch to Green Point
this season in time to carry water,
and that the funds now available
would not justify the undertaking. 1t
was shown that there was only about
$3.50 available for construction pur.
poses, and that this small sum was not
sufficient to complete the three and
one halt miles Of the main canal vet
to be constructed. The farmers were
then given an opportunity to express
their views in the matter; this priv
llege was enjoyed immensely. Ii. A.
Hackett was the first to take the
floor, and with the sloquence of a
Demosthenese and the logic of a
Plato, he proceeded to expIain his po-
sition relative to the best policy for
the future. Mr.. Hackett is a natural
born orator, and his exposition was
highly entertaining. L W. Angus,
speaking in behalf Of the board of di.
rectors, thought 1t advisable to dis
continue the construction work on
the upper end Of the main canal and
concentrate their effcrts on the lower
end of the ditch. 1t was reported that
it would require about 50. 500 to clean
out the ditch below Dead Point and
repai- the breaks. The excessive and
continuous rains Of the season have
caused several large slides to fill the
ditch at various points. In answer
TO an inquiry it was stated that the
average cost OF constructing the canal
was about $4,000 per mile, and that
much of the ditch between Dead
Point and Green Point would cost
$40, 900 per mile. MIR. Angus thoug
that it might be feasible in the .inter
ests of economy to loose the $50, 900
thus far expended beyond Dead
Point, and to lay pipe line from
Hood river and connect it with the
main canal at practicable point,
preserving the 700 inches of water
from Dead Point north for the upper
section of the bonded district, stat
ing that it was his opinion that this
amount of water would be sufficient
to irrigate this territory for many
years to come. Mr.. Markham stated
that there we're about 70 men employ
ed on the upper end of the ditch at
the present time, ana that the daily
expense was about 800. That at this
rate it would not take long to expend
the $4,000 available and still not
have water. A resolution was finally
passed requesting the board of direct.
ors to take the men now at work on
the upper end of the ditch and pro-
ceed to clean out the main canal and
construct and repair laterals, SO that
the 700 inches might be distributed
this year. The meeting adjourned
subject to the call OF the board of di
rectors. In the interim the directors
will get statistics concerning pipe
line for both canal and laterals.
