AS Tar as an over supply is con-
cerned, said MIR. Roberts, az do not
apprehend it, for with increased crops
necessity comes forward with invention
IN the way of ingenuity, to create the
remedy for that bugaboo. A demand
for all the fruit which can possibly be
raised in the northwest will exist if
catered to judiciously.
The handling organizations will aid
this by arriving at some tentative
agreement, not as to price control but
TO refrain from using any one market
to excess. Competition in marketing

lated. There is room for two great
handling organizations and even more

derstanding between them would give
a regulated outlet. Cutthroat competi-
tion will react as dangerously as the
same lndiscriminately carried on be-
tween the growers themselves. The
point brought to me from that angle, >"

Mock Wedding EntertainS

A recent social function occasiOning
much amusement among the demoi-
selles of the younger set was mock
wedding given at the home of Mrs
Flora Hartley on State street Friday
evening at $50.
The high contracting parties were
| Miss Marie Bartmess, the bride, and
Miss Florence Gould, the groom. The
matron of honor was Miss Kathryn
Hartley, and Miss Jewel Taylor and
Miss IClara PARTS were bridesmaids.
The groom was bravely supported by
Miss Marie Berry, as best man. Little
Carroll Bartmess, the ring bearer, was
the only invited gentleman guest pres
ent. Miss Gladyse Calkins was the
officiating clergyman. The rooms we're
decorated charmingIy in asparagus fern
and pink roses.
The bridal party descended the stairs
to the gushing strains of Mendelssohn' s
Wedding Macrh, played by Miss Lucille
Bonebreak. The bride was quite com
posed, but it was evident that her
mother miss Clara Randi, on whose
arm she leaned, was torn by fearful
grief. With their retinue, they were
met by the best man and groom, who,
to all appearances, had sneaked out of
the clothes closet, and by the preacher,
who was detected emerging from the
kitchen. All proceeded to the parlor,
where. under magnificent floral com
position the pomp0us minister became
the important party. Sorry to say,
the brides mother forgot her grief and
solmenity so far as to try to put on
little more powder when no one was
looking. The matron of honor also
seemed bent on mild Irritation with
the best man. The little ring bearer
and the soIoist, Miss Elizabeth Carson,
who sweetly rendered, 81 Love You
Truly" were the only persons not at
tempting a hit.
The bride was fetchingly attred in
white charmeuse and rose point lace,
with cascading tulle veil with pearl
ornaments. The matroA of honor
thought she was quite chic in a light
blue crepe meteor with shadow lace.
The bridesmaids wore fashion plate
costumes in brocaded crepe. The
preacher. with other suitable attach
ments, wore thrilling mustache which
fell off rather too often to be truly ar
tistic.
Numerous elegant and lovely gifts
were received by the bride and groom.
1t is suspected, however, that most of
them had been purchased at the fifteen
cent store. The groom's gift to the
bride was necklace of genuine pearls
of inestimable value. The bride be-
slowed lavish gifts on her attendants,
chief among which were an expensive
rice bracelet and scintillating dia-
mOnd brooch.
Immediately following the ceremony
a reception was held whereat was
served all the punch and cake which
the Villalnous Merrill Gesslng and Cliff
ford Ross had been unable to consume,
out in the pantry. The brides bouquet
was caught by Miss Gertrude Morris
of White Salmon.
Doubtless the reception never would
have come to close, had not the
Mesdames Hartley and Blagdon, who
presided at the punch bowl, run out of
fluid and the many guests gone dry on
congratulations.

The RaunCher

You've heard about the squatter,
And you've heard about the rube:
And though 'tis little matter,
You've counted him boob.
You've doubtless seen farmer
Who sows and reaps the crop,
But have you seen or heard the
"Rauncher"
Or the apple raising "Fop?"
Well, I'll spin my tale
Of dear little vale
Not far from the mighty Mount Hood,
Where there is no dearth
OF the get back to earth,
But don't soil your hands kind of dude.
He wears khaki breeches
And leggings that screeches,
For not having ridden horse,
With gloves on bis hands
his chest he expands,
For he is rauncher of course.
He can make the boast
That his is the most
Scientific profession on earth.
With professors galore,
And books by the score,
He shows how to farm by the hearth.
You'll find him aroun'
The one horse town,
In the dinky hostelry lobby.
The ladies adore him,
The men all bore him
Except when he starts on his hobby.
Say "How is the crop"
And he's off like a top.
Like buzzard who sights his prey,
He swoops and corrals you
He batters and fells you,
You're his for the rest of the day.
He starts in with sprays,
And on that he stays,
Giving you arsenate, sulphur and lime,
Tobacco and Bordeaux,

STATE BOARD PLANS
STATISTICAL REPORT

When interviewed by the statistical
department of the Northwestern Fruit
Exchange, E. c. Roberts, president of
the State Board of Horticulture in
Oregon, gave a brief outline of plans
under way for the aid of the grower in
scientifically planning his growing and
distribution. 1t is proposed that fruit
inspectors prepare comprehensive
report on all fruit acreage in the pro-
ducing regions of the state.
IA card index will be kept" said
Mr.. Roberts, "of each growers prop
erty. This will contain his acreage of
orchards, number and age of trees,
number, varieties, increase or decrease
of trees, new planting and tonnage
shipped during the past three seasons.
Also the method and terms of market
ing and localities of distribution.
The result will be that the grower
will be in better position to know how
and when to market to the best ad-
vantage. He will also know the more
efficient ways in treatment of acreage
and trees to produce the highest grade
Weld.
The public is showing much inter-
est in the work of the Board, and is
lending us all the assistance we need,
and in turn calling upon the members
of the Board for helpful suggestions.
This cooperative spirit in the grower
forms a stronger incentive for consci-
entous work on our part.
a "The fruit growers problems are
young yet, and with the proper care at
this time will grow up under perfect
control, SO to speak. The community
handling is bettering facilities and at
the same time teaching determinations
in methods of distribution. The ab.
sence of heIter skelter market flooding
is becoming more in evidence all the
time and this needs must be continued.
The day for an understanding bewteen
handling concerns is not far off, which
will also help this situation, while at

countess. The opening finds Braine
and the countess discussing their fail
ures. They discover a strange man
watching the countess apartment.
Alarmed. they decide they must act
quickly. They plan another scheme to
get not only Florence, but Jones too.
Florence is invited by the countess to
a coaching party out to an old mansion
Jones is invited also. The members
of the "Black Hundred" gather secret
ly at the mansion to carry out the
iendish plan. On the way the coach
ing party meets Norton. Fearing he
knows not what. he secretly follows.
The plot progresses. Florence is lured
into the trap Norton rescues her, aided
by Jones. The three start away on
horseback, but, being discovered are
Immediately pursued. Jones stops and
by fearless, hazardous tactics delays

moving pictures-and more startling
portrayal will appear as each episode
is shown at this theatre.

Formation of Ice,

The cause assigned for the fact that
water freezes only for comparatively
small space at the surface of rivers or
ponds is thus explained. Scientists au-
thoritatlvely declare that water is at
its heaviest when it reaches 40 degrees
F.-that is, 8 degrees above freezing
point. On a frosty night, as each top
layer Of water falls to 40 degrees It
sinks to the bottom, therefore the
whole pond has to drop to 40 degrees
before any of 1t can freeze. At length
1t is all cooled to this point. and then
Ice begins to form. But Ice Is a very
bad conductor of heat, therefore 1t
shuts off the freezing air from the
body Of warmer water underneath.
The thicker 1t gets the more perfectly
does 1t act as greatcoat and that is
why even the Arctic ocean never
freezes beyond few feet In thickness.

OREGON LUMBER CO.
OFFERS A REWARD

Screens having been removed from
the ditch of the Dee Power & Irriga.
tion Co, the officials of that company
have offered reward of from S25 To
$50 for conviction of guilty parties. A
letter from Chas. T. Early, manager of
the Oregon Lumber Co, owners of
the ditch, to County Attorney Derby
follows:
Il learned recently that COMPLAINT
had been made by someone that screen
on the ditch of Dee Irrigation & Power
Company was not on sand that little
fish were seen meandering down this
ditch.
Have taken it up with MIR. West,
who assures me that this has been
placed four times this season, which,
presume, cuts no particular figure from
legal standpoint, in the event that
the ditch is found without proper
screen protection.
ut would not seem that anyone
would stoop to such thing as tearing
il off of this or any other ditch, vet, It
has surely been done. My understand.

A mixture of sour dough,
Tomato catsup and thyme.
He tells you of trees,

A mixture of sour dough,
Tomato catsup and thyme.
He tells you of trees,
And list, if you please,
As he sets broken limb, and heal
wound.
For a surgeons skill,
With its many thrill,
You will think is his, as you hear hin
expound.
Then his eyes grow glazed,
His face looks dazed,
As he tells you of fungus and rot.
And you sympathize,
And wipe your eyes,
And say, "Ah, yes. It's awful rot"
He'll rave of the soil
And tell of his toll
And show you list of the things that
to do.
But if you enquire
You'll find that he'll hire
A man who can handle the spade anC
the hoe.
He won't keep a COW,
For he doesn't know how.
And to buy milk is easy, you see.
And as for pig,
He don't care fig,
For with them you must always be.
For in winter he goes,
Whenever il SHOWS,
And you'll see him not till the spring.
And you smile and gloat
And call him a goat,
Who has found new plaything.

PHONE SECURITIES
SOLD BY HALL

Chas. Hall, president of the Oregon
Washington Telephone Co., the COM
pany owning the systems of Hood Riv-
er, White Salmon and Goldendale, has
sold a block of securities owned by him
to the Chas. B. Spencer estate, OF
White Salmon. While MIR. Hall, as he
states, still retains an interest in the
telephone company, he will retire from
the active management to devote his
time to other business enterprises.
However, the management and pol
icy of the telephone company will re-
main as formerly" he said Saturday.
The transaction simply means that a
portion of the securities of the COM
pany hasschanged hands. w. N. Win
ter, who has been the active manager
of the local system for a number of
years, will continue in that capacity" :"

THE WAR AND APPLES

war" as General Sherman said,
lis hell" " And it has many rsmifca-
tions. The sudden flare-up in Earope
is already affecting almost all Ameri-
can businesses. among them the fruit
industry. But the American people
should not become too greatly agitated.
While the impending conflict, judging
from the rUmors that have been circu-
lated and from the actual declarations
Of war that have been made by the
world powers, may become one of his
tory's bloodiest wars, il is best to hope
that such will not be the case and that
the hostilities will be of short duration.
The depressing effects of the war
will be universal. The American wheat
growers and market men and the pro-
ducers of other staple commodities will
benefit because of the heavy demand
for such supplies in the warning coun-
tries. But while the conflict is on and
until international commerce is re.
sumed. other industries, especially
those depending on foreign markets for
an outlet for their products, will suffer.
The progress Of land and sea transpor-
tation facilities in the past quarter of
a century has brought the nations of
the world very close together. We can
only realize how close together they
have been after the international
freight and passenger traffic have been
demOraIized.
The apple market men of the coun-
try. who for the past three or four
years have been exerting every effort
toward the upbulding of foreign mar.
kets, are naturally worried over the
war. And it is true, that if the war
lasts out the year, the foreign apple
trade might as well not be considered
this year.
Already the market men are making
plans to concentrate all of their efforts
on undeveloped home markets. With |
the aid of the big, well organized CEN
tral selling agencies we may find that |
we have local markets for all of our
fruits. Such condition is de voutly to
he hoped for.

The quick action at the Neal Creek
fire last week, when about so men were
rushed from the city to the scene, is
used as an argument by those who de.
sire to see the opening of the roat
from the Lost Lake district to the
headwaters of the Sandy river over the
route of the trail already cut by the
government. If fire were to get a
start in the forests around the lake, il
would burn over great area and soon
get beyQund control with the forests
inaccessible, as they now are. If the
road is opened, hundreds of fighters
can be rushed from the valley to ex-
tnguish the fire before it gets beyond
