A LACK OF FRUIT.

The Produce News saws:
"There is a cry Of lack of fruit in
the West. Apple buyers should not be
misled into paying too high prices be-
cause Of rumors. This is big country
and there will be apples enough to go
round at reasonable prices. =
Now, of course, the idea uppermost
in the minds of the fruit trade paper
men and their clientele, the commits
sion men, is to pay the producer the
least and stick the consumer the most.
There Is lack Of fruit and the "cry
in the West" is borne out by govern
ment reports. Our advice to Mr.. APP
plebuyer is to buy his apples while he
can, paying what the producer axis for.
This is large country and a lot of
people will be hungry for apples. If
the buyer waits the price will be high
or and he will have to pay the pro-
ducer more if he waits until the peo-
pie get too hunrgy for the apples.

Runaway Kills a Cult.

A runaway which might have had
very serious results occurred about
three O'Clock Wednesday afternoon
when team heavily loaded with lum-
ber became uncomfortable on State
street near the court house and ran
east across the bridge over Hood River
and well up the east side grade before
it was possible to stop them. just
after the team started it struck a colt
near Second street, knocking it down
and running over it. The colt which
was the property of an Indian, died.
The team kept on its way and the
driver stuck to the wagon as it ca
reened down to the bridge, just avoid
ing collision with bus loaded with
passengers from the boat and an auto
mobile. The driver continued out the
east side after gaining control of his
team and his name could not, be
learned,

Carroll Smith Makes Record.

Carroll S. Smith returned Tuesday
from an automobile trip to Tillamook
in his Hudson ear and he made the run
to the coast and back without single
mishap of any sort. Mr.. Smith has
only been driving his car a couple of
months and the run over the bad roads
he encountered was a record breaker.
He made the run back from Tillamook
to Portland 1870 miles on less than nine
gallons of gasoline in seven hours and
55 minutes. He said if the Hood
River people could see the roads he en-
countered they would never have more
to say about poor roads in this valley.
The roads in Yamhll county were
pretty good, while the Washington
county roads were mostly worn out
macadam highways. These roads
emphasized the fact the Hood River
county will have to take proper care
of its new maeadam road, or they will
wear out and become the poorest sort
Of roads. In Tillamook county they
are now doing much to improve the
roads. Mr.. Smith said he travelled
over many miles of bumpy corduroy
roads which tested the automobiles.
Of IA cars which he met on the trip,
five were out of commission.

SUCH Is LIFE In
YAKIMA VALLEY

30 wad some power the giftie gle US
to see oursels as ithers see us, said
Bobby Burns in old Scotland years ago
and his cry has been echoed by fellow
mortals ever since, says the Yakima
Republic. But the difficulty with the
answer Of the prayer is this that
when the prayer is answered the
looked-at one is sure he has not been
seen as he really is.
However that may be, fruit growers
of the Yakima valley might have had
the prayer anwsered had they heard
the dissertation recently poured forth
by a buyer who has purchased fruit
in Wenatchee, the Yakima valley and
other points in the interest of various
houses through period extending over
good many years. His discussion
showed how the grower looks from
one view point and the discussion
would have excited him even had it
not proved instructive.
