VIII Enforce Motion Picture Law.

Determined that the law prohibiting
the turning of motion picture reels by
motors or other mechanical devices
must be strictly obeyed, Thomas E.
Kearns, chief inspector of the depart
ment of workshops and factories, has
begun an investigation that will reach
all parts of the state. Proprietors oi
theaters at once will be advised If they
are violating the law and, In case Of
failure to- comply with instructions,
will be prosecuted.
The action Of Inspector Kearns ia
taken to prevent fires resulting from
the ignition Of the highly inflammable
films. If motor or other device con,
trolls the pictures automatically, the
operator leaves the booth, it is point
ed out, and, in the event of an acci
dent, the blaze gains headway before
discovered. When the reel is turned
by hand this danger, of necessity, Is
obviated, Mr.. Kearns declares.

follows
The Hood river gorge looks very
much like certain parts of the river
Oar near Rerne in Switzerland sim
liar prosperous farms on rounded hills,
similar tree clad slopes, with a glimpse
at similar snow clad mountain. But
nowhere IN Switzerland or in Europe is

part Of the Columbia valley is worth
four Rhlnes and two Hudson rivers.
Few streams in the world carry such a
force of water; fewer have such a

eades. The people of Oregon do not
realize how much their splendid snow

ELLIS TELLS OF
LOCAL SUCCESS

Carlysle Ellis, who was here last fall
securing data, praises the Hood River
valley for its successful orcharding in
an article in Everybody's for June.
'Out in the Orchard, " is the title of
Mr.. Ellis story. He visited all the
principal apple sections of the United
States last year and his article is a
resume ofsthe Investigation.
OF Hood River he says:
Now we drop down the Columbia
river to the Hood River valley in Ore
gon, whose apples are about the most
successfully advertised in the world.
"Here we find the westren pack at
its best, thanks to the Hood River Ap.
pie Growers Union. This is an incor-
porated combination of growers in
which the growers themselves hold the
stock The business of the Union is to
primarily find market for its mem
bers' fruit at the highest prices; to re-
ceive and ship the fruit to the best ad-
vantage; and to maintain ana stand
behind such standard of pack that its
label will be virtual guarantee of ex-
cellence.
ITO do this it makes strict rules, and
in order that these rules may be sure
of enforcement, it hires trained pack.
ers to handle the crop. The Union will
not ship single box of apples that
has not been filled by Union packer
he in turn is responsible for his pack
to the Union, end his identification
number must go on every box. In ad
dltlon there is stamped on the 0utsid
| Of the box the growers name and ad
dress, the variety of the fruit, The
Grade and the exact number of apples.
The problem of supplying eompe-
tent packers is solved by free pack.
ing school run by the Union. The men
are well paid, as the work requires
judgement and skill. The various
operations involved are interesting to
watch.
The first one is the picking. There
IS no shaking into blankets in the mod
ern orchard. No apple is allowed the
fall OF even an inch. Each one is
pulled from the twig and laid in the
bottom Of the caYvas bucket the picker
wears. The fruit is transferred to the
tables with equal care, even rolling
being avoided as far as possible. Each
apple is wiped with cloth, sorted ac
cordIng to size "a difference of half
inch would change the grade and then
wrapped, after having been looked
over for faults. 1t is then placed in "a
paper lined box.
The reference to Hood River ends
with comparison of the rules Of the
local Union and those of an eastern
barrel apple district. showing the lack
of care used in the latter.
