FOLLOW HOOD RIVER
WAY, Is ADVICE

From the Corvallis Daily Gazette
Times)
Benton county has a wonderful fu-
ure ahead Of il If the landowners and
fruit growers of this section will but
get out and learn how things are done
elsewhere. Benton couny has much
fine soil and a climate unquestionably
superior for the production Of fruit,
but what we need here is inspiration
to plant more and to care for what we
plant in exactly the proper way. We
/ need new methods, and with uptodate
methods in the past we would now be
! far ahead of some sections that have
great regulations and are rolling in
| wealth
So says Grocer Z. ID. horning. who
has lust returned from trip TO Hood
/ River. Mr.. Horning spent two or
three days there with his brother-in-
law, c. d. Thompson, and had oppor-
tunity to travel over much Of that fine
valley. What he saw was revelation
to him, and he returns enthusiastic
over the possibilities here. He wants
others to 20 and see and then come
back here and make Benton the para
disc it should be.
"While we have wonderful advant-
ages and much of which we may very
rightly be proud" says Mr.. Horuil z.
the Hood River valley is a veritable
garden spot, and the great garden
looks like it was cared for by land
scape artist. As far as one can see
there is nothing but orchard, and or
chard in perfect condition. There is
order and cleanliness, the weed is
scarcely known, the ground is in per-
feet condition and each tree is more
beautiful than the other in its perfec-
ton.
"And this wonderful development is
not confined to any small section, con-
tinued Mr.. Horning. "lt's the entire
valley, and the orchards are climbing
farther and farther up the hillsides.
The surprising thing to me is that so
much has been done in so little time.
Ten years ago, Hood River was
scarcely on the map for fruit. Today
the world knows of Hood River fruit. |
Nine years ago my brother-in-law's
twenty acres was in timber and heavy |
brush. This year he will have 1000
boxes of beautiful fruit, and he says
this is only about three-quarters of
crop. The work of thinning fruit in
the Hood River orchards furnishes en-
ployment to large number of people,
and from the beginning of the year to |
the end the orchards and fruit are
cared for in such way that the pay
roll for help is always a large one.
Benton county could do as much if it |
would it only requires faith and up
todate methods. can now begin to
more what is being done
here to promote commercial fruit cul-
tur9. Each move should be encour-
aged. Ii means wealth for this Sec
tion."
Mr.. Horning says Hood River trees
are so laden that the limbs are either
tied up or propped. Speaking of Mr..
Thompson, he says he is trying an ex-
pertinent with dwarf trees. He has as
On plot about 40 feet square. The
Trees were planted this spring and one
produced II apples others bore almost
as heavily. All but one apple of each
variety has now been picked from the
trees. MIR. Horning enjoyed his visit
immensely.

For several weeks past several big
grey rats have been sojourning in the
city. They are large, pompous fellows
and have ways about them like those
of Bull Moose politicians. The old
house cats of number of homes in
town have met the visitors and lost
fierce combats. However, one of the
rodents, entering the kitchen of a home
last week by means of hole beside
the pipe of the heating plant leading
up from the basement, ate so much
that he was unable to make his exit
and paid the penalty of death for his
robbery.
In the early morning one of the chill
dren of the family was the first to dis.
corver the rat as be ran from behind
kitchen cabinet into a corner behind
larder. "Oh, papa." the little fel-
low cried, "eome quick. There's a
sheep in the kitchen. The father
strolled into the kitchen rubbing his
eyes, thinking the youngster was max
ing him the victim of some joke. He
was led to the corner and as the rat
made dash for the open door way, he
seized piece of stove wood and the
Golden Bowl OF the visiting rodent
was broken.

An ancient darky, who had moved to
New York desired that one of the
ultra fashionable churches admit him
on a letter given him by his country
congregation. The fastidious minister
was opposed to taking the old white

offend him, advised him to pray earn
estly to the Lord and ask his opinion
about the matter.
The old man failed to return and the
minister was relieved of burden. In
about two weeks he saw the old fell

Rather Have Judgment of

nor Wilson. Of New Jersey, was the
guest tonight Of the Connecticut Civil
Service Reform association at its an

association from all parts OF the state
were present.
In his address Wilson said that to
make civil service effective. patron
age must be taken from politics. but
r%eforlners must look upon their work
in a broad way. Reform associations
bers do no take a big enough con-
ception Of their tasks. He said that
they must see the dynamic of the
movement which is to redeem the
government.
He would rather have. he said. the
judgment of common, struggling peo.
pie on a subject affecting them than
of a few selected men who might be
highly distinguished for the reason
wanted while the few were absorbed.
as employers in the selfish side, look
ing out for their own interested and
their own success.
Wilson said he had been asked to
explain modern insurgency. He said
it was time the people thought they
had a right to protest. He called the
phenomena in rising Of SAP to the
head. stimulated by the knowledge
that the general rights Of man should
he exerted and the realization that the
gates Of opportunity had not yet been
opened. He said the time had arrived
for systematic efforts to bring about
great achievements. and that this pre-
cedes the great awakening.
