KEEPING DOWN FRUIT DISEASES

While on the watch for some more
menacing fruit pest, the orchardist
should not forget the many lesser
troubles that are universal and appear
in all orchards unless care is used in
guarding against them. There is a
story told of a city in the southern
part Of the United States, where an
epidemic of yellow fever was feared.
1t was in the day when the first frost
was welcome signal for those, who
poessed the means to get away to the
hills in summertime, to return to
their city domiciles. Yellow Fever
was a bugaboO, the mention of which
caused babies to shrek and men to
trun gray haired. The cause of the
disease had not been discovered and
eliminated.
In this particular city, yellow fever
threatened. The host of doctors issued
proclamations and practiced on the
population with all remedies known to
the science. But all of their attention
was turned toward yellow fever, and
by the time the first frost had fallen
and before the people, themselves, and
the physicians knew what was happen
ing, a scourge of seven year itch broke
out over the land.
And so fruit growers should beware
lest they devote too much of their talk,
time and attention to novel pests, else
the old, well known ones may muster
their hosts and steal a march on them.

The Cost of Orchard Heating

This is the subject of some elaborate
statistics by J. c. Alter, in the Month
ly Weather Review, partially answer
ing the question Does frost fighting
pay in Utah" Assuming 80 degrees
as the temperature below which heat
ing is necessary, he finds that for the
30 degrees-the cost is 60 cents per
acre per hour, while with a further
fall of temperature the cost increases
40 cents per degree per acre per hour.
Thus to heat the orchard to the safety
mark with temperature of 20 degrees
the cost is S4.20 per acre per hour. Ii
is also assumed that if the tempera-
ture falls below 20 degrees, the crop
cannot be saved and this may happen
after large amount of fuel has been
expended. Again, the business of tir-
ing presents many chances for small
leaks of one sort or another and much
unnecessary firing is apt to be done in
the attempt to err. If at all, on the
safe side. Finally, there is the ques-
tion whether the soot-lad and smoke
covered pollen can continue its work of
fertilization. Some of the growers who
in the past have successfully" fred
their orchards have now abandoned the
practice. On the whole, MIR. Alters
deductions are discouraging, so far as
his observations in Utah extend, but
of course do not, necessarily, apply to
other parts Of the country, where
frosts are less frequent and severe, or
where fuel and labor are less expen-
sive.

FRUIT PROSPECTS FOR
ALL WEST GOOD

High prices for deciduOus fruit in
eastern markets and a bumper yield in
the Northwest have combined to make
propect exceedingly bright for farmers
in Oregon and Washington. Shipments
from California have brought from
$500 to $4,000 per acre, with an esti-
mated yield of "A, 900 cars to be shipped
from the State. On the basis Of pres
ent prices the revenue from these
ii, 600 cars will be S28, 900, 0O0. Taking
this as an index, Oregon and Washing
ton crops should also yield a sum which
will go a long way to keep the wheels
Of prosperity turning.
The Southern Pacific company reports
the movement over its lines eastward
of l29 cars during three days of this
month and states that shipments are
now going forward at the rate of from
40 to GO cars daily. The season is two
weeks earlier this year than last, and
the yield is heavier. Plums are most
important in qurantity, but will soon
be replaced at the head of the list by
pears Next in order come peaches,
together with the last of the cherries
and apricots. Shipping began a month
ago and will continue until November,
the maximum being reached when the
grape crop is at its height in October.
Railroad companies are calling upor
shippers to cooperate that there may
be a full supply of cars. If cars are
loaded and unloaded promptly, there
will be plenty to go around, but only
prompt release of cars once loaded will
allow the crop to move easily and rap
idly. An especial appeal is made a
this time to prevent congestion and i
is believed that users of railroad equip
ment will respond.

two sales of cars and has received a
new 1914 model of the Cadillac, which

l.. M. Baldwin, Mace" as he is
known to his many friends, was mar
ried Wednesday of last week to Miss
Aida M. Puddy, Rev. Van Nuys, of
Parkdale, performing the ceremony.
The wedding came as a surprise to Mr..

sociates in the First National bank.
where he is a member of that institu-
tion's force. Mr.. Baldwin left here
on Sunday, August II, with the party
that climbed Mount Hood, he guiding
the party. The first news of his inten-

was learned that he had purchased a
license.
MIR. Baldwin will make his home in
the city. At present he and Mrs.

Secretary Lane Passes Through CITY

Returning with party of Portland
business men WHO had accompanied
him to the Central Oregon region,
Secretary of the Interior Lane passed
through the city Monday afternoon.
A delegation from the Commercial
Club met Mr.. Lane at the train and
invited him to stop over for about
twenty minutes, in order to get a
glimpse of the Valley. However, the
train stopped for only a few minutes
and the Secretary was unable to ac-
cept the invitation.

ANOTHER ROAD BOOST

The expressions of the party who re-
turned last week from Lost Lake as to
the construction Of highway by the
side of the Lake and through the Bull
Run forest reserve should be of cheer
to the people of the Hood River Valley
who are interested in seeing the scenic
highway promoted 1t is another evi-
dence of the fact that those who have
visited the ground, even though they
are not in the least biased in the mat
ter, fully recognize that the conten-
tions of the Portland Water Board,
who claim that highway will cause
pollution, are without practical found
alton. Highway experts and water
works experts who have visited the
country over which the road will pass
can see no reason for pollution. All
grow enthusiastic over the proposed
highway.
Oregon's United States Senators and
Representative Latferty have aided in
the introduction of bill into Congress
for the blocking of the highway,
They, of course, have been influenced
by the contentious Of the Portland
Water Board. However. Representa-
tive N. j. Sinnott, who has been over
the country and who fully understands
the situation from a practical stand
point, has used his endeavors to SCI
the matter right.
We think that the highway from tn,
southwestern portion of the Hoo,
River Valley to the headwaters of tn
Sandy river, will be built. Let NOR
of Portland people see the scenic at
factions it will open up. Let tn
members of the Portland Water Board
themselves, come take look befor

Two Suspects Held

While it is considered doubtful that
they are the right parties, the Portland
authorities have captured two men who
are being held as suspects of the Sulli-
van Gulch hold-up. P. A. Hudson,
who was aboard the train and who left
here yesterday for his home at Dee,
advances the theory that the robbers
never left the train but travelled out
of Portland with the other passengers.
Mr.. Hudsca declares that several sus-
picious looking men were seen to pass
from the rear of the train to the front
soon after the holdup.

HUMANE SOCIETY HAS
ACTIVE MEETING

A meeting Of the board of directors
Of the Hood River Humane Society
was held at the Commercial Club
rooms Friday. August Is. In the alb
sence Of the president, Mr.. Stranahan,
+. II. Hartwig presided. Among the
many subjects coming up for discus
sion was the leaving Of horses for
hours at a time on the streets, unfed
and uncared for, and it was unani-
mously moved that the City Marshal
be made an honorary member of this
society and that he be instructed to
| take charge Of any animals thus neg
| ected, placing them in a feed barn.
and so forth, the owner to redeem
them upon payment of the stable
charge. Aud notice is hereby given 70
careless owners that such action will
| be taken.
Report was also made-regarding the
overlooking Of teams on the grades,
especially those drawing stone for
street imp oyement, and committee
was appointed to confer with the
drivers.
Discussion regarding a means OF get
ting the work Of the society more
widely known in this community was
held and, at the suggestion Of Rev.
Mr.. Macdonald, it was decided to ask
that the Home and School Association
give one evening during the winter to
a discussion on humane" ideas, and
it was also ordered that the secretary
purchase for distribution the leaflets
and other publications of the Humane
Society. For this latter and also for
the sending Of an officer into the
country to Investigate reported acts Of
neglect and cruelty, some funds are
necessary and the society would great
ly appreciate it if the members would
send their dues for the last year to
the secretary, or to the treasurer,
Leslie Butler. These dues are small
only one dollar a year but funds are
absolutely necessary if the society is
to do effective work.
