COMMISSION LOWERS
ELECTRIC RATES

Lower lighting rates for small con
sumers than were agreed upon by the
Hood River Gas & Electric Company,
the Hydro Electric Company and the
Commercial club of the city have been
fixed by the Railroad Commission in an
order just entered, being the result of
a hearing held some time ago.
The order eliminates the rule that
mo connected load shall be considered
less than one kilowatt, enabling lower
rates to be enjoyed by the small con
sumer. A provision has also been in
serted to permit the consumer under
the residential rate to use the cooking
rate, if he so elects, this applying prm-
cipally to cooking and baking ranges.
The effect of the order is to confirm
the argeement between the companies
and the Commercial club, with the
modification indicated, and to author.
ize the establishing of meter rates in
place of the fiat rates heretofore in use.
This is not made as final order. AS
data was lacking to enable the commits
sion to determine with any degree of
certainty as to the reasonahleness of
the charges, it is announced that the
schedules named are tentative, and
may be revised when accurate infor-
nation is secured as 10 the practical
operation of the new meter rates.

CHAUTAUQUA PLANS
NOW UNDER WAY

The executive committee of the Hood
River Chautauqua Association appoint
ed last August at the close of the first
of the events, met Saturday at the
Commercial club rooms and devised
plans for the Second Annual Chautau-
qua, which will be held at Woodwork
Park near the Lava beds in the Upper
Valley July 2l-22. c. E. Ravlin, who
had charge of all the theatrical pre-
sentations and the entertainments fea-

manager of the Chsutauqua for the
present year. Mr.. Ravln, who is now
associated with the Baltes Printing
Co, of Portland, came up Saturday
especially for the meeting. lie expects
to spend June and July here on his
ranch in the Oak Grove district and
will devote a good deal of time in

DISTRIBUTORS TO
HOLD MEETING
DECISIVE ACTION WILL BE TAKEN
Trustees Will Gather in Morning and Mass
Meeting of Growers Will Be Held
Here in the Afternoon

At meeting Of the board of trustees
of the North Pacific Distributors to be
held here Saturday morning, action
will probably be taken that will decide
the fate of the organization for the
present year.
j. IL. Robbins, head of the Yakima
Valley Fruitgrowers' association and
slated for manager of the selling
agency, as a result of the recent meet
ing of truitgrowers at Wenatchee, has
been of the opinion that it is wise to
let the project drop for this year.
Three things are possible for the dis
tributors, he said: to hold the organ
izatlon intact, with occasional meet
ings, exchanging information and being
ready to proceed with the original plan
when the larger districts are unani-
mously in its favor to go ahead with
the central selling agency without We
natchee, OF to adopt the suggestion of
Wenatchee and make of the organiza-
tion a machine for advertising and ex-
plotting the box apples of the north
west. Mr.. Robbins has been in favor
of the first option.
However. resolutions were passed by
a number of the prominent districts Of
the northwest, ii is stated, asking that
the Distributors maintain their identity
and organization as outlined and mar
ket their fruit. II. F. Davidson, mem
Der of the executive committee of the
Distributors and their treasurer, got in
communication with II. C. Sampson,
of Spokane, secretary of the concern,
last Friday morning and the meeting
for Saturday was arranged for. The
trustees will spend the morning in de-
liberation and in the afternoon they
will submit their plans to the mass
meeting of growers from Hood River,
Moiser. Underwood, White Salmon and
The Dalles. Representatives of the
Willamette fruit districts will be pres
ent.
At mass meeting here at the time
the local growers decided to form the
Hood River Apple Growers Assoca-
tion, the growers instructed Mr.. Dav-
dson to proceed in the matter of the
Distributors as he thought best. While
he favors the plan of the central sell
ing agency, the ultimate decision has
to whether or not Hood River will aiiil-
late with the Distributors will be left
to'a vote of the growers.
All growers are especially urged to
attend the Saturday afternoon meeting,
when some final action will be taken
on Hood Rivers attitude for the com
ing year. The directors at the morn
ing meeting may change the plans of
the Distributors in material way, N
order that some feasible method may
be proposed and such as will meet with
the satisfaction of the representatives
of all the northwestern district who
will be present for the occasion.
The mass meeting of growers will
convene promptly at ] 80 Saturday af-

LOCAL STRAWBERRIES
NOW ON MARKET

Big. luscious Hood River strawber-
ries may now be seen on the local mar
kets, and shipments of fruit grown in
other pats of the state have ceased.
The first berries offered for sale in the
city were grown by Thomas CaIkns,
whose place is west of the city on the
protected lowands of the Columbia.
The fruit was well sized and colored
to perfection. However, because of
the berries that had been shipped from
southern Oregon and the lateness of
the local fruit, the price of the first
boxes was clipped from that of former
years, when the first berries usually
sold for so cents or more per box.
W. II. Galligan, whose place is on
the Washington bank in a protected
cove near Hood, has been sending
quantities of fruit to local merchants.
Five hundred pickers will be needed
to harvest the crop here this year, says
II. F. Davidson, district manager of
the Hood River Apple Growers Asso-
citation, which will market the berries
of the district. Mr.. Davidson and Will
mer Sieg, sales manager of the asso-.
citation, have made thorough inspec-
ton OF the berry acreage of the valley
and both declare that the crop is going
to be good. The estimate of the val
ley's yield is placed at GO, 900 crates
for the year. In addition to the many
Indians from the nearby reservations,
many well to do people come here from
the Willamette valley and aid in the
berry harvest. while participating in a
kind of an outing. These people come
up the Columbia on the river boats,
bringing their wagons and camping
outfits, and spend the days camped in a
some of the beautiful nooks of the dis
trict, while the returns from the berry
field pay the expenses of the journey.
Harvesting berries is a lucrative en-
ployment and some of them often earn
more than SIS per day.

Ferries Land at First Street

Since Tuesday morning the Hood

Underwood ferries have been landing
at the foot of First street. The river
steamers of the D. p. & A. N. Co. are
also landing there.
Since the water has risen over the
flats north of the city, the coves and
nooks are becoming popular. Row
boats may be secured there from the
Regulator Line Office, and many are
enjoying the outing on the water.
The ferrymen carry many who have
learned the fascination of the trip
across the Columbia and who are de-
lighted with the view to be had of the
