PRIZE OF $500 FOR
TWENTY FIVE BOXES

Howard Elliott, president of the
Northern Pacific railroad, has donated
to the New York Land Show twenty
five twenty-dollar gold pieces in a
leather case, to be awarded for the
best twenty-five boxes of apples, any
variety or varieties, a single variety to
the box, competition open to the
world. The conditions are The facts
regarding the fruit as asked by the
Judges must be sworn to and attested
by two witnesses. The apples must be
exhibited by actual grower or his
authorized agent. The grower must
own the land. or be the proprietor by
virtue of lease, or crop sharing system
of cultivation. Condition of fruit as
to size and weight, appearance, perfec-
tion of type, method of packing, the
date of picking, will govern the award.
The competition is not open to dealers,
or any other bona fide growers, as
heretofore stated. The twenty-five
boxes may be all of one variety, or of
several varieties. The latter is pref
cradle, and will no doubt act as a
factor in the award, since variety
helps the display, generally speaking.
There must be but one variety in each
box, however.
In addition to the Howard Elliott
prize, the Commercial Club is just
advised that Adrian g. Hanaur will
present $500 silver cup for the best
twenty-five boxes of apples, any
variety, or varieties, with one single
variety to each box. The Hanauer
entries can also compete for the How
ard Elliott prizes. Prof. Van Demar
will Judge all apple entries. On ac-
count of the lateness of this announce
ment growers desiring to enter for
both apple prizes and who have or will
file entry blanks for the Howard Eli
oft prize will be eligible for both
prizes. If entry is made for the
Hanauer prize only, then a separate
affidavit is required.
Repacking will be permitted after
the apples to be entered reach New
York, where the Land Show will be
held November Bird to 18th in NJ adisor
Square Garden.
Former Secretary of the Commercial
Club, j. C. skinner, will be in New
York at the time Of the show and has
offered to take charge Of any exhibits
sent him. This is a chance for HOOD
River to increase the already worlC
wide fame of the valley.

The Hydro Electric is ready to pro-
ceed with the work of the electric sys-
tenn on a sound financial basis. Its
subscribed capital will enable it to
complete the construction Of the sys-
TEN as planned and to begin without a
cent Of debt to furnish its patrons with
light and power. Among its officers is
J. I. Thompson, who has had a prac-
tical experience in the building and
maintenance of electric plants. Mr..
Thompson, who now resides in Port
land, was formerly interested in the
power plant on the White Salmon river
at Husum in Klickitat county, Wash. /;
indeed, it was under his supervision
| that the system was constructed and
operated. The plant was later sold TO
| the Pacific Power & Light Co. Mr..
Thompson will oversee the construction
of the plant and after its completion
will move here with his family to man
age its operation. Il am coming to
| Hood River to become one of your
citizens, he said, ''We think that we
have got something pretty good in
electric plants and we are going to
give the people the benefit of the de-
velopment. y
The first unit of two to be construct.
ed by the new power company will
develop $50 horse power. The work,
however, will be so arranged that il
will easily be possible to develop an
additional $50 horse power.
The fiumeway for the power plant
will be on the ea't side of the Ho.c
River and the plant will be located
near the present location Of the ole
saw mill. The ditch will be 1900 fee
long about eight feet deep and twelve
feet wide.
The company has purchased The
machinery for the plant and it is prob
able that it will arrive here the lattel
part of this week, and in very short
time the wires will be strung and thu
new plant will be furnishing electri'
energy for the Valley. Because of thu
cheapness of construction and main
tenance, the new company will be
strong and successful competitor 0

happened to have a set of books on
