FRUIT MEN SEEK
BETTER INSPECTION

Uniform fruit inspection laws of
types best suited to protect growers
from insect and disease pests, both
within the states and from other states
are being sought by leading fruit men
of the Pacific slope. A conference of
leading horticulturists from these
states was called by Governor West to
meet at the Agricultural College for
the purpose of considering the laws
best suited TO this purpose and of TAX
ing steps to have the measures recon-
mended enacted into laws.
The conference, which met early in
December, was presided over by h. c.
Roberts, president of the Oregon Hor-
ticultural Commission. Members of the
commission from four horticultural dis
tricts were also in attendance as we're
a number of specialists from the Agri-
cultural College. DR.. J. A. Cook, ho1-
ticultural commissioner of California,
was present and took part in the pro-
ceedings. The National Nurserymen s
Association, the Oregon State Nursery
mems Association and the American
Pathological Society were represented.
The state legislative committee, con-
sisting of Judge Chas. l.. McNary,
chairman; Albert Brownell, of Port
land, and Ray H. Roberts, of Lebanon,
was appointed. The legislative COM
mittee for the nurserymen's associa-
tion was composed of W. M. Mcdonald,
president of the Oregon Nursery Com
pany, and Prof. c. /. Lewis, chairman
of committee on handling such matters
in the American Pathological Society.
Drafts of proposed bills we're presented
by both of thess committees. After a
close comparison of the two measures
submitted by a joint committee was
appointed to select and unite the bes
and necessary features of both bills in
order to have them presented to the
legislatures of the various states repre-
sented with the earnest recommenda
tion that they be enacted into laws.
In drafting the final measure to bC
submitted to the Legislature. the join
committee called in as advisory mem
bers, Professors Wilson and Jackson
and Mr.. Vickers. Should the committed
succeed in having these measures
adopted by the legislatures of the Pa
cific slope states, their efforts will b,
extended in an effort to have includes
all the fruit growing states Of thu
country.

Heights, were conducted yesterday
afternoon by Rev. W. B. Young at the
Bartmess chapel. interment following

of rs years, was the victim of stroke
of paralysis little over a year ago

different sections of the Willamette
valley. where he engaged in orchard
work, being an expert pruner and
CRATER. He came to Hood River

eral years. when not engaged in work,
he has resided at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Bradley.

ness. He did not use tobacco or liquor
in any form, and although a great

Mr.. Fay left surviving no near rela-
tiVes.

The ELECTRIC SlTuATION

In discussing the rates on electric
lights for the city Of HOOD River and
the adjoining rural communities and a
probable revision in rates by the Ore
gon State Railroad Commission, the
Glacier does not intend to assume an
attitude hostile 20 the Commission.
Our remarks are not meant as criti-
eism; for as yet we do not know what
the Commission will do. But we do
feel safe in saying that the overwhelm-
ing sentiment Of the public will be that
the rates are unjust and exorbitant, in
case the Commission sees fit to make
an increase in any schedule.
We of the northwest nave been made
to believe that we we're fortunate for
living in regions possessing an abun-
dance of white Coal'', the energy of
our dashing mountain streams. Even
the local prices paid at the present time
do not compare favorably with the
rates of electric systems in other COM
munities, as far removed from fuels,
coal or OIL as in Hood River, but where
the energy is developed by plants using
such fuels. Have we of the northwest
been resting under delusions? Are our
mountain torrents, when developed,
expensive uxuries after all? 1t would
seem so.
If the system of valuation of the
local electric properties brings about
an increase in rates rather than re-
duction, the sytsem is wrong. 1t is
system that the people of Hood River
will not tolerate, because they cannot
afford to tolerate it. II is a system
that will lead toward municipal owner
ship. No doubt statistical data may be
produced by the companies showing op
Grafton at loss. the swollen valuation
of the properties taken into considera'
tion. We, however, make our state.
ments from observations based on COM
mon sense. 1t has all but been ad
mitted that Hood Rivers two electric
companies are under one ownership.
Why should the people pay to keep two
Offices in operation, when a single
Office, with less red tape, would take
care of the business?

THE PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN

Z We find that the publicity campaign
is appealing strongly to great many
people of the valley, business men of
the city and orchardists and ranchers
as we'll Everyone who studies the
situation realizes the possibilities of
great benefit TO be derived from a
judicious expenditurelin advertising at
the San Francisco exposition. Hood
River will have an enviable location
in the Palace of Horticulture, one of
the most interesting buildings at the
great fair and one that bids fair to
draw the greatest percentage of
visitors.
And the people are going to visit the
San Fancisco exposition next year.
They are going in thousands and hun
dreds of thousands, and a great many
of them are going to be attracted to
Hood River. The publicity fund pro-
posed in the Hood River county budget
will be good investment. 1t Is proper
that the expense should be borne by
the people of the county as a whole.

RanCher Opposes Expensive Road Master

Hood River. Dec, 5, 1914.
Editor Glacier: 1t is my opinion,
and you may take it for what it is
worth, that county roads can be built
just as economically by men of good
judgment and business qualifications as
by high salaried officials after grades
and curves are established, which. as
understand the situation, is already
supplied with a man for that purpose.
Now | wish it distinctly understood
that am not seeking any office but
am very much interested in good
roads. | have the greatest respect for
MIR. Kay and think he is a thoroughly
competent man for engineering work,
such as building macadam or paved
streets, but country roads cannot afford
that kind at present.
Yours respectfully,
H. c. Winans.

Why do not publications practice
what they preach? The Hood River
News recently preached a sermon to
the Glacier on newspaper enterprise,
stating that the Glacier, even after we
had given our readers facts on the gen.
ernl election, failed to give the public
figures, since it had been impossible to
clip the same for the columns of our
esteemed contemporary with the edi-
torial scissors. After the puny scream.
we expected to see news of the city
election spread across the front page
of the News in big black banner. In
spite of the recent self horn. footing,
not a word was mentioned of the cleo
ton.

line. and big automobile stands near
by,
The candy house is now on display
at the Model Bakery, at the corner of
Fourth and State streets.
In discussing his architectural proph-
ecy Mr.. Welder says: Nov you must
remember that the state will have been
dry a year, and really | believe that

and will be in need of big bakery like
that have made by the end of 1916"

FINS, FURS AND FEATHERS

Hood River has some very clever
dogs, among them TED, the Shep-
herd dog belonging to E. K. Bradley
and family. This animal has been
trained to hold the rens of the hand
some bay horse MIR. Bradley drives.
When Ted's master stops at one of
the local stores the dog gets out with
him and is handed the lines to be held
until MIR. Bradley returns. And the
man who tries to take the reins during
MIR. Bradley absence is liable to be
bitten.
However, Ted has some good canine
friends and sOmtimes when he is en-
gagged in his duties of watching the big
bay horse, one of these friendly dogs
passes along. Ted was holding the
horse in front of a local store last
week, when friendly brown acquaint-
ance happened by. He forgot his work
for moment and greeted the friend
with a wag of the tail, dropping the
reins. MIR. Bradley returned about that
moment. and Ted, after severe scold-
ing. hustled back to his task, looking
very much like laborer wh0 has been
caught soldering.

is Bert Stranahan's Babe. Babe
knows the men working in most of the
stores in town and often drops in. Es
pecially is she fond of visiting Cara
brant 4 Parker's place Of business,
where hunting story is often in prog
ress. When a nimrod is talking of the
ducks and geese he has shot or of the
sport he has had shooting grouse, Babe,
with ears back and tail eagerly twiteh-
ing, is one of the most interested lis
teners. Ordinary conversation never
interests her. She is a boon compan-
ion for a hunter There is just one
thing Babe prefers to accompanying
sportsman on a shooting expedition.
That is killing rats.
