Announcement has recently been made
that the United States Department Of
Agriculture had placed man in Mis-
sissippi who would devote his entire
time to work connected with the agri-
cultural high schools, corn clubs and
similar movement. Prof P. P. Garner
has been named for the work and his
headquarters will be at the "A. & M.
College. Superintendent has clothed him
with commission and he is now active
ly in the field. 1t is gratifying to note
this increased recognition of the sew
eral splendid movements under way in
Mississippi. The corn club work has
had enthusiastic support from the be-
ginning and the result is all that could
have been wished for. The high school
movement is gaining converts every day
and will soon become one Of the most
popular in the state.
This is the season for fairs and a
number are being held or have already
closed their meets. Mississippi has q
larger number this year than ever and
reports indicate that they are generally
successful. Several counties are getting
in line for organizations for next year
and the number will be accordingly in
creased.

Mt. Hood Smokes.

Smoke issuing from a Hssure nea
the top OF Monnt Hood was plainl,
visible yesterday. The clouds ant
and at first it was thought the Rmok
was an illusion, but old residents nov
say there is no question as to the can
ory seen yesterday. The smoke cam,
from the north side of the mountai Ii
from an old crater. 1t has Eeen fort,
years since the appearance of rea
smoke has been noticed before. Ion,
PIoelaimer
The above and similar items hass
been going the rounds OF the papers
east of here, In places where Mt
Hood is visible. The statement that
1t is the first time In forty years that
appearance of real smoke" has been
noticed is hardly true, as similar
statements are made once or twice Il
year not only of Mt. Hood, but OF
nearly every other snow capped
mountain. These rnmors serve to
make nervous people uneasy, and
when Investigated always prove to be
untrue. AS rule the appearance OF
smoke is seldom seen In the immedi-
ate vicinity OF the mountains, but
from "A distance. In talking to old
mountaineers who are familiar With
Mt. Hood, who have explored it many
times, aud who spend considerable
time in Its vicinity during the sum.
mer, ii is their opinion that the
"smoke" seen is nothing more than
the raging of blizzard over the snow
fields, A stiff breeze In the valley
reaches the velocity Of hurricane at
times on the mountain top, and oo-
casionally blows In such manner as
to cause the fine whirling snow to rise
like cloud above the top, and from
a distance has much the appearance
OF smoke or vapor. Those who have
gone out OF the beaten trail OF the
mountain climbers and have peered
into the old crater, claim that there
Is faint indication of vapor and
sometimes the smell of fumes can be
detected from the dying emhers of the
old volcano, but even at the mouth of
the crater 1t can hardly be detected.
There Is no indication that Mt. Hood |
is awakening from her long sloep, but
the accumulation of her ice fields
would indicate that 1t is the sleep that
knows no awakening.

FIRST NATIONAL BANK

f. S. Sanley, president of the First
National Bank of this city, yesterday
closed n deal for the bank for the
northwest corner OF Oak and Third
streets, now occupied by j. M. Parry
d Co, George ID. CuIbertson & Co. ,
and Fleming q Taft.
it Is the intention of the bank to
erect handsome two-stoIy brick
building on the lot, although the de.
tails have not been worked cut as yet.
The present quarters of the bank are
far to small to accommodate the grow
ing business, and 1t was thought best
at this time to secure enc of the
best business corners In the city tor
a future home, as well as making a
safe and profitable investment.
This insures the building of an
other fine business block In Hood
River, and will mark The first removal
In that block of the wooden buildings
that have made big fire risk in that
end of the town.
