CITIZENS GREET
BOOSTING VISITORS
LIVE STOCK SPECIAL STOPS HERE
Visit Made to Club Rooms and the Valley
Toured - crchariiSts and Iunket-
erS Talk Apples, Hogs, Cattle.

There were handshakes ard closer
drawing of the ties between thesstates
of Idaho, Washington and Oregon here
yesterday morning at nine thirty, when
the Livestock Special from Lewis
ton, Idaho, homeward bound from
Portland. stopped here Tor an hour
The eastern Washington and Idaho
grain and stock raisets alighted from
their cars and iu groups talked with
the Hood River apple men of apples
and pigs and cattle and grains. The
long train carried about 215 enthusi-
astic iunketers, who were led by q fife
and drum corps of G. A. r. veterans.
Local veterans heard the martial ans
and with quickening of spirits joined
the welcoming crowds.
More than a score of local aut0ists
had their ears lined up at the station
ana when the train stopped and the
crowd began to emerge, the horns and
sirens added to the greeting shouts.
As many of the visitors as could be
crowded into the cars were FASTENED to
the Valley to get a glimpse of the or
chards The remainder Of the junket-
ers were ushered to the rooms of the
Commercial club, where they were
entertained until the return OF the
autoists, who unloaded the first visit
ors, who had seen the valley, and re-
turned with those whom they had been
unable to carry on the first trip.
The publicity party is said to have
been the largest of its kind ever max
ing a trip in the Northwest They
arrived in Portland Monday morning
and since that time have been placing
on the map the sections of eastern
Washington and central Idaho. At
banquets in Portland the menus were
made up wholly OF meats and foods
raised in the districts, the resources of
which the visitors have been telling.
The excursionists are loud in their
praise of the city of Portland and the
splendid hospitality of the Portland
people. The two days spent there
will long be remembered, they say.
The boosters issued daily bulletin
for the use of the members of the
party. Just before they arrived at
Hood River the following mimiograph
announcement was distributed:
Members of the excursion party
are reminded that we are now ap-
preaching the city of Hood River, the
home of the irest apples in the world.
Tell the Hood River people that cen
trail Idaho and eastern Washington dis
tricts hope soon to become rival for
the title now held undisputed by their
district Extend to the people hearty
invitation to visit our Idaho and Wash
ington sections.
The livestock men had as their mas
cot small Red Jersey pig, which,
with grunts of satisfaction and at
intervals a squeal to add to the hurrah
spirit of the day, accompanied them
from the train to The Commercial club.

HORSES MUST EAT
SOCIETY'S ORDERS

That the Hood River Humane society
is living issue was evidenced one day
last week when it was noticed by sew
eral people that small saddle horse
had been tied to post on State street
from 8 a. m. until nearly 6 p. m. 1t
was reported to the Humane society
and pretty soon the city marshal was
on the scene to investigate the case.
1t was found out later that the animal
had been ridden into town, distance
of seven miles, and left there tied to a
post all day without food or drink. The
marshal soon hunted up the young
man, whose horse it was, and ordered
it to be watered and feed forthwith.
and threatened with arrest if the like
incident occurred again. Ii is presum-
able that it was explained to thu young
man that there was difference in ma
ture between horse and an automO-
bile T. that whereas the latter could
subsst very comfortably upon gasoline
and stand any number of hours with
out becoming hungry, the horse was
differently constituted and suffered
the same pangs of hunger and thirst
that human being does when neglect
ed for a whole day. Any way, the
young man seemed to have learned
some thing he did not know before, and
promised not to. repeat the offence.
still sadder case was reported to the
society that of a horse which was
seen by passer-by out in field, so
very thin and weak that it almost
seemed unable to stand. Its enact
ated form told an eloquent tale of the
weeks and months Of slow starvation.
The case was Immediately invest t'gated
when it was learned that the animal
belonged to poor Indian woman who
earns her living by doing washing.
She was informed that if she was un-
able to give her horse proper care and
food that it must be transferred to
some one who could, as the law does
not exonerate cruelty on account of
poverty. The hoise was transferred
to field where grass is growing and
some of her neighbors promised to
look after it and report to the society.
The strange thing about this case is
that it was not sooner brought TO the
knowledge of the Humane society.
The Humane society keeps a stand
ing ad in both Hood River papers, with
number of phone, aud the public at
large is urged to report all cases Of
cruelty to the society.
The state has enacted laws against
cruelty to any animal. against under-
feeding, over-working, over-driving;
and no case of suffering is too trivial
to gain the attention Of the Humane
society. whose business is to see that
our state laws in regard to animals are
enforced. -" observer. "

Germs IN the United States. and we
judge this TO be so from the great
number Of letters which we receive
/ from time to time asking US for gen
eral information concerning the organ
ization and workings of this Union
and the general underlying causes Of
our success. During the past year we
have had letters from nearly every
state in the union and from the Cana
dian government officially. from Aus
tralia and New Zealand. from Switzer-
land, and especially from the principal
Agricultural schools of the United
States in line with their investigation
of cooperative work Surely there
must be some reason for this wide
spread popularity and conceded success
of this Union, but if the rumors of the
air are facts, then OF course is every
one of our inQuirers mistaken.

In the second district, Congress

of the third district is popular
among the-members iof his sec

fourth distric t, not certain OF
asreasy sailing as in 1910 when
he virtually had no opposition.
Hon. S A. Witherspeon, of the

Hon. Pat Harrison, of the

State, has no opposition so far.
In the seventh district Far

SOUTHERN r. r.
ISSUES BOOKLET
On Poultry Raising In The
South

Washington, d. G. Feb. An
an effort to encourage and in
crease poultry raising in the
South, the Southern Railway
Company, through its Land and
Industrial Department, has is
sued a foiasl for wide 1distribu-
ton calling attention to the su.
perior advantages offered in the
States traversed by it's lines for
the profitable development of
this industry.
The big home demand for poul-
try products with prices higher
than on other markets, and the
ideal conditions prevailing In the
South for raising chicks at low
cost are two of the good argu-
ments set forth in the folder. It
is d fact that every Southern
city of any size imports annual.
ly thousands of f-dollars worth of
eggs and chickens. Eggs will
average throughout the year at
least five cents more per dozen
than In the North. The South
ern poultryman has a market
near his plant and does not have
to consider long hauls and ,un--
certain markets.
For the small poultry raiser
who is satisfied to make a living
only at first, gradually building
up his business with his profits,
the initial cost Of a poultry plant
in the SoRtheastssheuId not run
over $500, according TO an esti-
mate given In the folder, Many
prosperous Southern poultrymen
began on as low 800 first capl.
tai. Several ceres of land, a
small laying house and runs is
about all necessary for poultry
raising on small scale in the
Southeast. and such a plant will
make zhealthful, pleasant liv
ing for the family and under in.
telligent management will in "a
few years result In a large in.
industry.
The Southern Railway Com
pany is very much interested in
the activities of the poultry in
dusury, as it is in other indus
tries served by it, and Land and
Industrial Agent M Richards
at Washington, and Western
Agent Charles S. Chase, Chemi-
cal Bldg. st. Louis, are prepar-
ed to give all possible assistance
without charge to prospective
poultrymen desiring to locate In
the Southeast.

Nashville, Tenn, Feb. s.
An Anti Parcels Posts Conven
ton to protest against the pas

measure proposed in Congress
Tor the purpose of establishing q
parcel posts system in this coun-
try is called to meet in Nashville,
February 26-27-28. Last spring
like convention was held in this
city, at which 1000 representa-
Tive merchants of the states of

Georgia and Mississippi, were
preseut. At that meeting, suffi
clent sentiment vas created
against the then pending. parcels

materially assist in causing Its
postponement IN d temporary
defeat. 1t is hoped to again &C.
complish a like result this time
when much larger attendance
promises to be on hand from the
same territory.
