THE NEW OFFICERS

The Glacier opposed the recall petit
tion, the election and the attendant
campaign that will naturally leave fac
tiOnal feeling in the different eommun-
tiles Of the county. II opposed the re-
call as a matter of principle and honor
and because it thought the reasons for
the recall of the old county court were
insufficient for such action on the part
of the voters. 1t has not changed in
attitude on these scores. However,
these are dead issues now.
We believe that the members of the
new county court are capable Of giving
the county an administi alton as good
as that of the old board. We have had
no fight to make on the personnel of
the candidates, but ii is natural that
we, as all Of the citizens, as well those
opposed as those who supported them,
are going to watch their administration
with interest.
We are glad to hear their express
sions as to the policies they expect to
pursue, unhampered by the dictates of
any faction. Their campaign platform
for good roads in the valley and the
Columbia river road was worthy one.
The new court, through the expression
of MIR. Stanton, has announced sim
cere intention of following this policy
and Of being a court of all the people.
This course, pursued. will meet with
the commendation of the citizens.

The SPLIT Log praa.

The split log is due to the ingenuity
of a Missouri farmer, who, to improve
the condition of the highway between
his farm and the neighboring village,
devised rude contrivance to smooth
the rough places and round up the
surface from the ditch to the center so
as to drain Off the water. This device
was most simple since 1t consisted or
log split into two equal parts, with
few braces between them and a
chain by which the horses hauled the
drag. Ii was tried after a rain when
the road was soft, and 1t worked so
well that its fame soon travelled far
and wide. This was the beginning OF
the split log drag. the improved form
of which any farmer can make in a
short time II has revolutionized the
work of maintaining dirt roads, work
which had always been expensive and
ineffective Harper's Weekly.

THE STATE EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION

II the State Editorial Association has
many more conventions like that re-
Gently held in Portland. the people of
the state will come to know that such
an organization is in existence. II is
gratifying to the progressive newspa-
per men Of the state to see the interest
that was taken in the recent meeting.
These gatherings, when fellow editors
tell each other the result Of their en-
deavors, tell of their problems and how
they have solved them, tell of their
successes, are decidedly worth while.
The life Of the country editor, es-
pecially the man who aids with his
composition, becomes one Of dreary
monotony, in many cases, if the editor
is not an unusual man. and the grind
Of his weekly tasks Of setting the news
Of his town, news that he can usually
anticipate, is only broken by an elec-
tion or the appearance of some gigantic
vegetable monstrosity, which is left in
his Office for exhibition.
But the Oregon newspapers, the up
state press and the metropolitan papers
are among the best in the land (pardon
US for throwing little boquet at our
selves). They are expressing their
progress in their publications. and it
should be further expressed in an in
terest in their association, an associa.
tion that will take a leading stand
among the organizations Of the state.

COLLEGE ADVOCATES
USE OF LIME-SULPHUR

although the use of lime sui phur
spray as an insecticide is more effec-
tive when applied in the spring than in
the fall and winter, it may be applied
row or later with good results in the
control of scale insects" says Prof.
Fl. F. Wilson, head of the crop pest de-
partment of the Oregon Agricultural
College. at will destroy young in
seets if it reaches them shortly after
they are hstched, but it is not so effec-
tive against eggs Of aphs and other
insects as is generally supposed.
Neither does il seem to have much
effect on plant lice after they are "a
few days old.
Most eggs of plant lice and other
insects hatch about the time the buds
are opening in the spring. The spray
should be applied about the time the
buds are showing green, or just after
the buds have opened to slight eX-
tent on apple trees and other trees in
which the leaf buds open first.
'WhIe lime-sulphur may be used
with safety at the rate of six or eight
to one, ii is just as efficient under ord
mary circumstances at the rate of
twelve to one. When used in the
spring its effectiveness may be greatly
increased by the addition of one part
of Black Leaf-40', tobacco spray, to
1900 parts of diluted lime sulphur.
; 'If the combined spray is used in
the spring at the time indicated, prac-
tically all plant lice can be controlled,
as we'll as several other kinds of in
sects which cannot be controlled by
lime sulphur alone. The combination
is effected by diluting the lime-suplhur
to the one to-twelve strength in the
spray tank, and then adding the Black
Leaf-40.' The combined spray should
be well mixed before using.

New YOrk'S Neglected Apples
CFrom New York Tribune)

D ..., " ibil ANNN > u AtlANltJ 4.
1t is recorded that in celebrating
Apple Day" members of the Consoli-
dated Stock Exchange who are inter
ested in western apple lands passed
around several boxes OF the product
yesterday, and the entire membership
munched apples. Any celebration of
Apple Day is good. but it seems too
bad that. the celebrants did not at the
same time recognize New York states
possibilities in apple growing.
, There is no need for any orchard man
in this state togo west if he wants to
grow. apples or to get a market for
them. lie can find as good apple land
here as there is anywhere in the coun.
try. He will be able to find any tracts
of splendid apple growing possibilities
where he may buy orchard sites within
easy access Of markets for low sprice,
This is not because the lands will not
produce apples as good as the western
fruit, but because the New York state
orchard men until recently have
wanted nature to do all the work and
furnish brains to assure a good crop as
we'll. ..
The state now produces, packs and
ships fruit which experts pronounce as
cnpice in. appearance, size and flavor
as anything grown between the two
oceans. There is room for an extern
sion of the industry. with profit to the
investors and the public. The Wall
Street men might look much nearer
home the. next time they want to in.
vest their money. and if they eventu.
ally help to grow enough good appes
to force the present high prices to de-
cline they'll still fud market enough to
assure good income,

The DAVENPORT MONUMENT

Oregon editors at their recent annual
convention in Portland are to be com
mended for the support they gave to
the proposed monument to be erected
to the memory Of and in honor Of the
late Homer Davenport. beloved by men
who knew him and famed the world
over as a cartoonist aud author. The
city Of Silyerton, Oregon newspaper
men and Oregonians, all Of them,
should be proud Of the successes
achieved by one Of the states gifted
sons and it is beiitting that they should
express their pride in erecting some
fitting monument, lasting token Of
the honor ia which bis memory is held.
But should the subscriptions be lin
tied to Oregon people2 No action
tending toward such a decision was
taken, but a sentiment to this effect
was expressed at the recent c0nyen-
tion. II is true that il is a commend.
able spirit on the part of Oregonlans
to desire TO erect the monument alone /;
for Homer Davenport loved Oregon
and never tired of telling Of his love.
He loved Silverton and the simple
country life of the Waldo Hills. But
Homer Davenport was American, his
fame has spread among Us and abroad
as a representative of great nation.
He was known personally and beloved
by the newspaper fraternity the land
over; he created the interest of men
and women throughout .the. land. We
will have the honor Of placing proper
marker to his tomb in our midst, but
is it not rather selfish to make the
task exclusively our own? We believe
that newspaper men in ala the country
will be glad TO aid in the building Of
a monument to Homer Davenport.

Mr.. BOURNE'S PROPOSED BILL

We think that had a bill similar TO
that now proposed by Jonathan Bourne,
Jr., formerly. United States senator
from Oregon, been effective the past
year that number, at least, if not all
of the referendum petitions against
meritOrious measures passed by the
last legislature would not have secured
the required number OF signatures.
The hired petition hawker without an
interest, other than that of securing
his money for the signature, submits
mis- paper to an Indifferent popuace.
The nuisance of the paid petition
hawker should be abolished.
And the citizen should be made to
use intelligence in the use of his sigma
ture. not putting it to every petition
that is presented to him.

OUR OAKS

white Oaks" or "Roble Oaks"
they call them down in California,
where this variety of hardwood may be
found intermingled with the Live Oaks
that have given fame to Menlo Park,
San Mate0. Fair Oaks, Berkeley and
other suburban towns Of San Francisco,
peopled by the home loving people of
the Pacific Coast metropolis. But here
in Oregon we call them just "0aks.
And that is enough. for the dwarfed
trees, dwarfed in comparison with the
giant evergreens of the Pacific north
west, are almost the only hardwoods
that the people of Oregon and Wash
ington know.
Many country homes from Louisiana,
where the gray moss hangs down in
funereal festoons, as it seems to the
stranger that visits that land in the
rainy season. to the middle Blue Grass
states, where the big mountain and
White oaks. from which much of our
beautiful furniture is made, rear them
selves, and on to the Cascade region of
Oregon, have been called 1.-THE Oaks. 4"
And 1t would be a fitting name for
many of our estates in the Hood River
valley.
The man who has no home is unfor-
tunate. Even though it be but shack
on some barren seashore, a hut in the
wilderness, a dug out on the prairie's 8
hisak stretch or a lone cabin in the
widest forest. he loves it. Even
though he may look with envious and
covetous eyes or the more palatial res
idence of neighbor, the home of his
own is part of him, and longings for
1t fill his breast. when he is away from
its environs.
And here in Hood River we have
homes, homes that each respective
owner abides within and loves. Ma
ture has been prodigal. and yet all of
us do not make the most of it. AS
Mrs. Connel. who recently returned
from the hills and valleys of far away
Japan, where the artistic Orientals
have made some of the most beautiful
spots in the world, told us, we should
help nature.
No Hood River valley home could
better be named 1.-THE Oaks" than that
of MIR. and Mrs. W. E. King in the Oak
Grove district. For not only do the
tough trunks and scraggly limbs of this
tree guard the grounds. but one can see
the evidence of the utility of the
branches that had to be sacrificed in
making the clearing. Little rustic
pergolas have been constructed in in.

ward trips. As they passed through
the steerage, he called his fair com
panion's attention to big, husky Irish
emigrant who was putting away with
knife. fork and spoon bountiful sup

captain eyed him for a moment, then,

Eastern publications still make the
mistake of advising their readers to
the effect that they have just as good
fruit as the folks out west. In this
issue of the Glacier we publish an ar.
tiele taken from the New York Trib-
une. In some respects the New York
paper is correct. Some varieties of
fruit can be produced better in the
east, and the eastern fruit man can
better his product by the practice of
scientific methods in use in western
orchards. But the northwestern apple
districts, because of climate and soil,
produce better commercial apple than
is grown in the east.
