The County Library

1t is of value to occasionally call at
tentiOn to the practical value OF our
local institutions. This has been done
so repeatedly in the case of our general
school system as to have perfected ap-
probation and the public schools have
now become the idol Of the American
people. In few words | would like
to center moments attention on the
practical value of the library. II is
Just possible that many who are really
willing patrons look upon the library
as a place for the innocent passing of
time, or the obtaining of some permis-
sable reading or possibly as an aesthet-
ic adjunct to the general town advant-
ages, but do not take the institution
seriously.
If the local library with its present
accumulation of reading and reference
matter was all there is to it. there
might be some possible occasion for
such light thought. But an organised
library is more than local matter; il
is part of great system and con-
Meeting link for the people of its local
ity, to the advantages of such system.
For instance, have now on hand lit
tie special literary work to which am
giving some attention during these few
weeks that | am waiting here for my
daughter to complete her high school
work. For this work | needed some
books which could not be obtained in
any Oregon library. To meet my needs
Miss Northey took up the matter with
the city library of Chicago, and OBJ.
tanned from them loan of the books
required, the expense to me simply be-
ing the express on the package to and
from Chicago.
So. should any one in the county
have some subject of Importance on
which reference was needed, the H.
brary facilities of the United States
are really at his disposal through these
local centers.
The library of Hood River. as of any
other county when properly organized,
is not toy, but real and vital part
of our educational system and | look
for the day when the county librariesy
with the attendant officers, will be
considered part of the county educa.
tional system and be provided for as
other educational expenses. In the
meantime, the special tax should be
looked upon with favor.

EXCHANGE CLOSES
YEARS PEAR POOLS

The Fruit Growers Exchange this
week closed its pools on pears. The
early apple pools will be closed the
latter part of this week.
Manager Kenneth Mckay gives out
the following statement:
"The Fruit Growers Exchange, in
keeping with its policy of getting as
much money as possible for the fruit,
and getting it back to the grower
quickly, has already closed its pools on
pears.
1.-The follwing pools have been closed
and the (. o. b. prices are, Anjou, extra
fancy. $l.32; Bose, extra fancy, $l.75
Fall Butter, fancy, $l.34; Comice, eX-
ira fancy. Si.34, fancy, $l.l0.
1--WE will close our Jonathan pools
this week, and so get money back to
the grower in time to pay his hired
help, before he has finished his crop.
Despite disquieting rumors which
have from time to time been circulated
our growers continue to have strong
confidence in the organization to which
we have affiliated ourselves this year.
We wish all growers to relaize that
this Exchange is local body of men,
whose soul aim is to get for the grow
er, every cent we can possibly get.
mot only that, but it is our aim to
take up, and work out. various prob
lens that the grower is unable to cope
with as an individual. and which have
heretofore been neglected. and, by
making success of these issues, we
are sure that we can reduce greatly
the cost of production, and get our ap-
Piles to the consumer in more efficient
way, a better standard, and, what is
most important to us, in more eco
nomic way, which. even should prices
not be as high as in past years, will
still bring good returns to the grower. "

I'm a Persian Garden. -

Selected from the Rubaiyat of Omar
Khayyam.)
1t is hoped that every lover of the
beautifully W no is not already familiar
with the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam,
will read the poem before the date Of
the concert, November %. This Per-
sian poet, mathematician and astrono-
mer was born and died at Nishapur--
his dates, as nearly as can be ascer-
tanned, being l050-ll23.
Contentedly living in his beautiful
city of Nishapur. where the roses he
loved so passionately. waited their fra
GRANGE across his terrace, occupied
with those lofty questions which come
home with doubly powerful insistence
to an astronomer, he looked at the
world with curiously quizzical eyes.
Occasionally,as recreation perhaps,
he would compose on exquisitely per-
feet quatrain or rubaiyat, the conven-
tional form of which called for the first
two lines and the last to rhyme, the
rhymes being in many cases triple,
quadruple or even quintuple. The third
line was generally left blank, though
there are instances of the same rhyme
occurring in all four lines.
Like the conventional japanese po-
ems these rubaiyat are each entirely
distinct and disconnected. In the man.
uscripts that have come down to the
present time. they are always copied
in alphabetical order, arranged in ac-
cordance with letter that ends rhyme.
In contemplating all those poems
and there are thousand and more at
tributed to Omar Khayyam-many OF
them are only replicas and variations
of certain themes: complaints of fate
and the worlds injustice, satres on the
hypocrisy and impiety of the pious,
love poems, rubiayat in praise of spring
and flowers, addresses to Allah either
in humility or in reproach. and ever
lasting reiteration of the old Biblical
Eat and drink, for tomorrow you die. .
the question comes. how many were
really written by Omar himself.
Fitzgerald gives l0l stanazs. There
are German, French, Norwegian anC
Hungarian versions. but it is through
Edward Fitzgerald that they became
known to the English speaking worlC
editions of which appeared in 1859.
1868, 1872, 1879, 1889.
The modernness of 0mar's spirit, his
half pessimistic, half defiant view OF
the world; his wit, good humor anc
good cheer, make him appeal to a wide
circle of readers. They find in his ech

ings. They too, look upon the universe
as the plaything of fate which they
cannot pretend to explain or change
and they, too, somehow feel that the

Batchelder Discusses By-PrOducts

The apple growers of the Northwest
do not realize great demand for high
grade evaporated apples and the diff
Guilty in supplying this demand. If
they did they would take immediate
steps to supply this deficiency by put
ting up evaporating plants that would
convert part of their low grade apples
into one of the best nOn-perishable food
prodcts. This cannot be done by indi-
viduals but must be done by associs-
tions or companies, as small evaporat-
ors cannot produce evaporated apples
of uniform grade and at price to
compete with the large plants, and the
small plants cannot take care of the
by-products that should be turned out
by the evaporating plants.
Under date of October 27 H. F. Da-
wilson writes from New York as fol-
lows:
al hope you are able to land the or
der for 100000 pounds of evsporated
apples and that you will be able to fill
the order. This would be big thing
for the northwest, but | am afraid the
people in the evaporating business out
there are not moving fast enough to
take care of an order of this size"
The order Mr.. Davidson refers to is
one of 800, 900 pounds of evaporated ap-
Piles for London. They must be high
grade and sulphured apples will not be
accepted. As Mr.. Davidson says, it is
going to be very hard to secure the ap-
Piles on the Pacific coast, if we do not
get a move on at once.
A company is partly financed to in.
stall plant in Hood RIVER that could
supply part of the apples wanted for
the above order and there will be other
orders from the same source. Califor-
MIA has sent samples and prices, viz,
seven cents per pound. +. o. b. San
Francisco, and they cannot ship any
apples before 80 or go days. Their
sample is not up to the Oregon apple.
See samples at Commercial club.

Bond Election May Be Held Soon

According to an opinion received by
Charles Steinhauser through his attor-
ney, E. G. Smith, from Attorney Gen
eral A. M. Crawford, the county may
hold bond election any time after the
first of January, 1915. The opinion has
prevailed that an election could not be
held until year had elapsed from the
time of the Columbia highway bond
election. According to Attorney Craw-
ford's Interpretation of the statute
governing county bonding elections, il
is meant that the year in which the
election was held must only elapse.
