Essentials Of Good Paving.
(Paid advertisementD

The great growth Of the good roads
on this continent has
brought the important matter of paw
ing material strongly to the attention
of the public. The people demand
better pavements than formerly, and
municipalities realizing the import
ance of we'll paved, well kept streets,
are much more exacting in paving re-
ouirements than they used to be.
What is demanded now is paving
which will approximate as nearly as
possible the combination of durabil-
ity, non-slipperiness, noiselessness,
resiliency or elasticity, dustlessness,
easy drainage and economy, the
Ipavements most in use are brick,
granite blocks, wooden blocks and bi-
luminous compositions. All of these
have their merits and also their draw
backs. None of them approach the
ideal pavement as closely as that
which is known as bitulithic
The brick pavement, for instance
is noisy, and must be laid with spe-
cIal skill and care to prevent, under
the action of heat and cold, a heaying
up and settling down, leaving many
oroclta Granite blocks are also dur
able but noisy, and lack the quality
of rebound. Wooden blocks, since the
discovery of the creosoting process
have good wearing qualities, but be-
come slippery when covered with
mud or frost, and require such large
tribute from the forests that their use
is disproved by those who believe IN
the careful conservation OF natural
resources.
Bitulithic pavement, which is com
posed of hard rock broken fine, ant
specially prepared bituminous ce
ment. seems to solve the problem o
paving approximating the ideal com
binatlm Of qualities mentioned above
For ten years it has withstood Tho
most rigid tests Of usage and has 81
commended itself to municipal engln
eers that It has been adopted in Owe
200 cities in the United States an'
IL in Canada The many beautliu
bouleyards and avenues upon whicl
it has been laid prove that It has
fine appearance, and the fact tha
these thoroughfares are practically i'm
mune from the necessity Of repair
under normal conditions, proves tha
bitullthic has that staunch durabilit

There seems to be a wrong impress
sion regarding the registration at the
court house. If you are registered
for the June primaries it is not neces-
sary to have your name recorded

THE UNDERWOOD SECTION

Naturally, one who visits the Under
wood section at long intervals notices
the progress of improvements more
than the resident of the community,
who sees them gradually shaping day
by day. The orchardists of that dis
trict are to be congratulated on the
development they are conducting The
Underwood community, just across the
Columbia from the Hood River valley,
is perhaps in closer touch with it than
any other neighboring community. The
orchradists there have many things in
common with the local orchardists.
They have practically soils that are al
most identical, and the Underwood
orchardist is watching his more ad-
vanced neighbor to learn OF his meth
ods. The Underwood orchardist enjoys
the same scenery and just little more
than the HoodIRiver neighbor; for he
can at any time look over the whole
of the Hood River district, and get a
view which the Hood River man can get
only by paying visit to the heights
across the river.

district engaged in orcharding. as hei
residents are, all of the best results

APPLE TREES BEAR
THROUGH HABIT

"Apple trees bear through habit,
saws G. K. Bone, exponent of the sys-
TEN of pruning whereby the tree is
cut back when IL is set and again the
following year in the early spring only
and not thereafter unless such process
be necessary to form limbs to support
the fruit. Mr.. Bone has followed this
system on the orchards developed by
him and points the present season to
tract of seven year old trees in the
Central Vale region, all of which will
yield, according to the estimate of ex-
perts, four boxes to the tree. The
Apple Land a. Orchard Co. has a tract
of 40 acres in the same district, the
trees Of which were pruned in an
identical manner and which have
yielded for the past three years in like
quantities with the Bone orchard. The
only differnece between the two tracts
is that the former has received no irri-
cation. 1t is of the opinion that as
the trees grow older, however, that
summer irrigation will add great bene-
fits, as a shock from wet to dry is
necessary to keep apple trees bearing.
In 1910 the trees Of both tracts bore on
an average two boxes to each tree
Last year the yield was only about one
box.
"Other tracts of trees, receiving
equally as good care. but pruned by
different methods, are not reaching
this yield" says Mr.. Bone. without
cutting back the tree should be allowed
to grow tough wood fiber. when young.
Then there would be no danger Of
the limbs swapping when loaded with
apples, or becoming willowy with fruit
all along the limb, as each time you
prune you throw the fruit farther from
the center of the tree and postpone the
bearing time. When the tree has
reached full bearing, then is plenty of
time to remove all surplus length OF
limbs. In the meantime an abundance
of fruit would be secured.
"0ther fruit sections of the North
west bring their orchards into bearing
at the age of live years, thus more
quickly realizing the profits from land
development. Get your apple trees
bearing early and they will get thu
bearing habit.

APPLE CLEANER
lessons WORK

Inventive geniuses are now using
their talents in attempts to secure ma
chinery that will aid the orchardst in
his work of cleaning and packing his
apples. During the past few years a
great evolution has taken place in the
way in which the apple grower cleans,
grades and packs his fruit. One Of the
most recently invented apple cleaning
and sizing machines that has been in
vented is that now manufactured by
the Oregon Fruit Cleaning Co, Of The
Dalles, which will demonstrate the
new mechanism here some time next
week.
The machine cleans the fruit by
means of revolving brushes 1t is sale

it without injury. 1t is a home product
having been invented by O. X. Porter
Of The Dalles, and manufactured by 1

THE CHAUTAUQUA

The rain has come and gone and left
the sky a bluest hue. The slight heat
of the Summertime is but q remem-
brance and weather conditions are
ideal for the Chautauqua, which begins
today. The Valley orchsrdists as they
gather in Woodwork park should, and
no doubt will, be a happy lot. The
rainfall has come at just the proper
moment TO make the fruit, just before
maturity, swell to the finest size.
Estimates place the increase in boxes
that will be made by larger sized fruit
at 100, 600 boxes. Some even 90 so far
as to declare that we may reach the
million boxes after all. Be that as il
may, the year ahead looms large
toward prosperity, the thoughts Of
which act on man as do lubricants on
ruusty machinery.
Plans are Oh foot TO make the Chau-
tsuqus a permanent affair. From the
evidence of the success attendant on
the present gathering. this plan will
in all probability carry. Other chau-
tauquas should prove decidedly more
successful than that of this year, be-
cause of longer time in which TO get
ready. The fact that the committees
that have had charge of the affair this
year have made such headway and
created so much enthusiasm should be
gratifying.
The Chautauqua will become another
Hood River institution. a gathering
just before the harvest time, where
families may meet and become better
acquainted in addition to the purpose
of acquiring a better knowledge Of the
Valleys dominant industry.

THE SAND.CLAY METHOD

The Glacier printed in its issue Of
last week, the recommendation of Prof.
Ayres, highway engineer at 0. A. c.,
on the sand-clay methods of road build
ing for Oregon. II would, indeed, be
an ideal state of affairs if we of Hood
River county could hard surface or
macadamize all of the highways at one
big undertaking. However. the financ-
ing of such proposition is out of the
question. For. years to come we will
have.miles of highway that will be
unmacadamized.
Prof. Ayres delivered an address
here last winter on the sand-clay
methods. His suggestions then as we'll
as those in the article are worthy of
study. The sand-clay road is mex
pensive, but when property constructed
forms a smooth, serviceable highway.
In last weeks issue of the Glacier at
tention was called to the work that has
becil uOfS ny bupSlf1oOI H1dulCiHdl III
the Oak Grove district. All who have
travelled the roads in that district
know that it has proven to be one of
the best stretches of highway in the
county.
The materials Of sand-clay road can
not be merely thrown together and be
expected to form the road without
effort on the part of the builder. lie
must use great deal of practical
effort in getting the roadbed properly
constructed and in the mixing of his
sand and clay. And when once con
structed the road demands watchfulnesi
on the part of the road builder to keel
1t maintained.
Lack Of maintenance is one of tn
great causes Of poor roads in the coun
try. The road should be constantl
watched to prevent ruts ana washes
Expenses in maintenance are kept at
minimum by applying the old adage
