FRUIT MUST RANK HIGH.

Fruit growers all over the northwest
in view of the early reports for bumper
fruit crops in almost every section oi
the country this year, will devote more
and more attention to the quality OF
the fruit which they produce. Nc
matter what the amount of the yield,
high quality will always bring top
prices, and most orchard owners have
determined to act accordingly.
In almost all sections of Washing
toon and Oregon the prospects for
record season are fine. Inspectors
in the various districts promise not
only bounteous season from the
orchards already established, but they
say that vast areas of hitherto un-
productive and will be utilized this
summer.
One of the features of the season is
the more universal adoption of western
methods of spraying, pruning and
thinning by Eastern growers. This is
particularly true among Missouri
growers, and is also applicable to New
York and Virginia apple growers. The
outlook in the extreme east is for
fine crop. Plenty of snow throughout
the winter has enabled the trees to sur
vive in fine condition.
Along with other districts Hood River
Valley never had better outlook for
big apple crop than it has this year.
With good crops all over the country.
the competition will be little keener
this year than before but the Hood
River apple will still have the advant-
age of being the best that is put on
the market. Hood River growers will
have to use greater care than ever
before to make their apple pack
faultless one, as the Hood River
methods are being adopted over the
country 1t is very necessary that those
methods which have placed the
apples of this valley in the front rank
of the world be improved still more. |
The grading will have to be more
strict and the general appearance of |
the pack must be made the best
possible.
There is one quality which the Hood
River apple has which cannot be at
tanned by other localities, even if they
succeed in initiating to the dot all the
scientific methods employed here, and
that is the keeping quality. 1t takes
the Hood River climate and location
to make that and when all the other
apples have softened and started to
decay the eastern and European con-
sumer can take out a Hood River
apple that will be as hard and as firm
as when it was picked. Thus Hood
River would still have the advantage
even If the other districts should equal
the pack de luxe. 1t is up to the
growers to maintain their big lead bv t
staying just as far ahead in the r
methods and pack as they will always
be when it comes to keep. c

The Word Siihoustts.

The little black pictures called "sil-
houettes' derive their name from Etl.
enne de Silhouette. who was the
French minister Of finance In 1850.
His extreme economy In matters of
finance was caricatured by all classes,
ana any cheap mode or fashion was
sarcastically called by his name.
About that time these protiles were
produced by casting the shadow of a
face on the paper by the light of a
candle and tracing about It. Because
they were cheap they were called In
ridicule at the minister "silhouettes,"
and the name has ever since been re-
talned. .-- Boston Globe,

HELP THE CENSUS MAN.

The taking of the census all over the
United States begins tomorrow. The
census takers will start their work in
Hood River county in the morning and
they will have thirty days in which
to do the work. There is a large
amount of work set out for them be-
sides counting the people and every
resident of Hood River should do all
that is possible to aid the men appoint
ed in getting the correct information
which is desired by the government,
While small mistakes in the census
for Hood River would amount to moth
ing so far as the whole work over the
country is concerned, it will amount to
something to Hood River. Accuracy
in the return from this locality
more important to Hood River than to
the country as whole and it is i'm
perative that no mistakes should ap-
pear in the census of agriculture and
population.
In the large cities especial efforts
are being made to be sure that not a
person lis missed in the census. 1t
is just as important to Hood River
and while no assistants have been
employed privately to aid the census
takers as has been done in Seattle, |
this is wholly unnecessary If every |
resident of the count makes sure that |
he is returned. There are many jap
anese in Hood River and their en-
ployers should make sure that they
are counted, as the government is
especially anxious to get accurate re-
turns on the Oriental population. Per
sons who have lately come to Hood
River should make sure that they are
included and people who are here look
ing over the country with view to
locating should be counted here If they
are not counted in the places where
they formerly lived. The census should
be accurate and the enumerators will
do their best to make it so, but they
must have the cooperation Of the
people.
: All information given to the enum-
orators is strictly confidential and will
only be used in the compilation of
statistics. No person will be injured
by answering the questions and no
other branch of the government will
have access to the individual statistics
except the Bureau of Census. II has
nothing to do with taxation, army or
Jury service, compulsory school at l
,endance, regulation of immigration or {
he enforcement of any law. All
questions put by the enumerators, who
will wear badge inscribed, UNITED !
states Census, l9l0," should be an !
wered not only accurately and COM 4
'letely but promptly in order that the {
work. may be complete in the specified a
ime.

ELDER DAVIDSON
PLEASED AT RESULTS

Editor Glacier-Great is the mower
of printers ink.
1t is very gratifying to note the
total absence of any disturbance to
Christian worship on last Lords Day.
! desire to thank you for your help
in publishing my mild" castigation
and gentle" reminder of our orchard
lists of their duty to God and man.
Many in the valley have expressed
themselves as we'll pleased with the
remedy employed and the satisfactory
results obtained. Drastic measures
are necessary in crisis but if the life
OF the patient is saved thereby we not
only excuse but applaud the admnistra-
tor.
Our diagnosis of the case is this-the
consciences of the offending gentle
men are not scared with a hot
lron,' and there is hope for them and
Eternal Life if they believe in the Lord
Jesus Christ whose resurrection from
the dead we celebrate every first day
of the week all the year around. This
service is so blessed to Christians that
noisy nuisances offend by causing dis
traction of the mind.
There is nothing better for us to do
than to let our light shine. The rays
OF golden brightness reflected by the
Glacier made the germs of sin
hide away for once and we trust that
the effect may be permanent. Like
the sunlight which shines all around
the world there are always to be found
in dismal swamps" and narrow cam
yons dark and gloomy spots. So, even
here to the southwest of us the light
did not penetrate, Some slaves were
tolllng, sweating, and blasting, for
the hope of silvery gain and jeo-
pardi2ing their precious lives for
time and eternity.
May the Glacier still move on and
reflect the light of truth until the
lark places of our valley may be
,heered with its brightness.

CIRCUIT COURT JURY
GIVEN HARDIN CASE
Considering Verdict in Woman's
Suit for $4,000 Brought
Against City of Moline.

Judge Graves convened the circuit
court this afternoon at $50 and in
structed the jury which heard the evil
dence in the $4,000 damage suit
brought against the city of Moline by
Mrs. Elizabeth Hardin, the colored
woman who claims she was injured IN
a fall sustained two years ago. After
the jury was sent out to consider a
verdict. the work of securing a jury
to hear another damage suit for $10,-
600 was commenced. The case is that
of Gustaf Tropp of Moline against the
Deere & Mansur Co. and the Rock
Island railroad. Jan. %, 1906, Tropp
was injured by a box car which was
switched in on siding which crosses
the gateway from the Deere & Mansur
plant. He was driving out of the
building at the time and he alleges
the railway company and the other
defendant did not take proper precau-
lions to protect him inasmuch as he
was not warned that any switching
was being done.
The grand jury reconvened this
afternoon at 2 o'clock and took up
again the work OF investigation with
which it was occupied before it adj
journed last Friday.

TEACHERS CUT UP
Tri- City Schoolmasters' Club
Has an Enjoyable Evening
at the Harper.
CRIMINAL CHILD DISCUSSED
After Listening to Address the Com
mittee on Fun Gets Busy With
Hilarious Consequences.

The Tri-City Schoolmaster's club
had the best meeting in its history
when the members gathered together
Saturday evening at the New Harper
and sat down to an excellent eight
course banquet prepared under the
direction of committee on arrange
ments at the head of which was S.
j. Ferguson. After the supper,
County Judge R. w. Olmsted deliv-
cred an address of considerable in
terest on the subject of crime and
the juvenile courts in particular. The
pedagogues were enlightened on the
amount of crime which is committed
among children and on the manner
in which the youthful criminals are
tried and punished.
Comedy Introduced.
The meeting was the most enjoy
able one which the club has ever
held and the credit can be given to
Principal H. E. Brown of the Rock
Island high school. Saturday after
noon Mr.. Brown and several of the
members of the high school faculty
held an informal meeting and plan
ned on series of doings to enliven
the evening. The plans were well
laid and they went off without a
hitch. The first thing out of the or
binary was the entrance into the ban
quet of a messenger boy who had
several kilograms for President
Jackson of the club. The dispatches
apparently were from three of the
most noted personages of the pres
ent day. President W. H. Taft in his
telegram expressed his regret at be-
ing unable to be present at the ban
quet and explained it by saying that
he was too busy removing undesir-
ables from office. Ex-President
Theodore Roosevelt was also sorry
that he could not attend, but he sent
his regards and told the assembled
company that he is still leading the
strenuous life. The third and last
telegram was from William j. Bryan,
who said he was unable to attend the
meeting, but that the pedagogues
would hear from him later, in 1919
and again four years later.
Victor Hall Arrested.
The climax came when F. w. Gray.
instructor of history at the high
school, appeared in the banquet room
in the guise of a policeman and in
sisted upon arresting Victor C. Hall,
formerly instructor in mathematics
at the local high school and now en-
gagged in other work. After a spir-
tied debate between the supposed DO
liceman and Mr.. Brown, who opposed
his entrance to the room. the arrest
was made and Mr.. Hall was taken be-
fore one of the schoolmasters who
was appointed as Judge to try him on
the charge of impersonating teach
er by appearing at the banquet. Mr.
Hall was defended against the charge
by T. p. Sinnet, whose argument in
his defense was the best thing of
the evening. The charge against Mr.
Hall was finally dismissed and he was
exonerated, but warned to be more
regular in his attendance at the
monthly meetings in the future.
