new buildings and beautiful homes have
been erected. The Congregational

any city Of ten times the size of this.
Tourists travelling through the largest
cities OF the world would pause to be-
hold the beauties of such home as

The wonderful picturesque beauty
of Hood River valley can not be de-
cribed; but with its beautiful homes,
many OF which have all the conven-
fences of modern city home dotting il
thickly, II must be seen to be appreci-
ated. For natural beauty and grandeur
one need but raise their head and view
the rolling ranges. the rugged noun
tains and the lofty snow capped peaks,
or dip into the Hood river or Columbia
gorge.
The raising of fruit is not the only
industry. The brick and tile put out
by the brick and tile factory is of a
high grade and the Hood River Cream
cry is another valuable asset, and many
hogs are raised with profit. The peo-
pie here do not have TO depend wholly

ROAD SUPERVISION
LAW OBLIGATORY

Ralph Root, secretary of the commit.
tee Of Hood River citizens who have
been collecting data as to popular sen.
timent toward the appointment of q
road supervisor, has received the fol
lowing letter from the states attorney
general relative to the appointment BY
the county court of someone to super,
wise the construction of county high,
ways:
Dear Sir: Replying to your letter
of November 2lst, would state that
under section z. chapter lag, Laws OF
1918, 1t is obligatory upon the county
court to place in charge of the road
work either roadmaster or the county
surveyor. A roadmaster appointed by
the county court is more or less subject
to the direction of the county court"
Mr.. Root states that the opinion of
the attorney general harmonizes with
the sentiment of the people. So far
answers TO postals recently sent the
voters show an overwhelming majority
of more than IL TO one that the court
appoint someone to conduct a system.

The members of the st. Mark &
Guild, who will hold their annual ba-
zaar at the Heilbronner hall Friday
evening, have a number of features
that will be attractive and tend to
draw those looking for pleasure and an
evening of diversion. The presenta-
tion of "Trial by Jury, one of Gilbert
q Sullivan's most pleasing productions,
alone will be worth the price of admis-
sion. Forty of Hood Rivers talented
people are taking part.
But in addition to this the ladies' of
the church are planning on aumsing
features for their bazaar. A beautiful
doll. said to be one of the prettiest
ever seen in the city, will be disposed
of. A grab bag will be prepared. and
one of the bags, all of which will be
filed with useful articles and worth the
money paid by them. will contain an
order for the handsome doll.
Articles, all the way from tinware
for use in the kitchen, to doll clothes,
will be for sale at the bazaar.

of George Wuest, p. |. Packard and N.

council Monday night the matter Of
chief discussion was the remonstrance
against the acceptance of the Twelfth

HEIZER BELIEVER in
DIVERSIFIED FARMING

l.. G. Heizer, who has made a repu.
tation as corn raiser. having been q
pioneer in planting corn crops on a
large scale, is thorough believer In
diversified farming, which he is put
ting to the test on his 0dell farm.
81 was born and raised back in
Iowa, says Mr.. Heizer, "and from an
early age have had it drilled into me
that a farmer should raise as much of
the necessities of life, not only for
himself but for his farm animals, as
possible. And at the present time |
grow all of the products thet | need.
| have carrots for my cows and horses,
and | grow my hay myself. Every Or
chardist in Hood River should make an
effort to farm in this manner. He
would be more prosperous.
MIR. Heizer last year had a crop of
10 acres of corn. He harvested about
375 bushels of excellently matured
corn grain.
81 have enough grain for all my
stock. | have 18 head of hogs" he
says. "The seed was secured two

year, from seed that had been accli-
mated, was much better. Every ear

"rhe main thing about a corn crop
is the prepari tion of the soil. 1t must
be in good condition and thoroughly
pulverized in order that the moisture
may be conserved. find that it takes
Just five months for the corn to ma
ture."
The variety of corn planted by Mr..
Heizer is Minnesota 13. A display of
the Heller corn was recently made at
the store of the Franz Hardware Co.
A number of ears of MIR. Heizer's
corn, not especially picked but taken
at random from his corn crib, were
sent by the 0-.W. X. & N. Co. to the
Walla Walla corn show. where they
took prizes.

POLK COUNTY MAN
PRAISES THE VALLEY

Arthur ID. Allen, formerly of Polk
county, who spent last week here vis-

Portland, where he now resides. Mr..
Allen. who two years ago was prom
inent in Polk county politics, was bare
ly defeated at that time for county as
SCISSOR.
Speaking of Hood River and the Hood
River country, Mr.. Allen said: This
is my first trip to Hood River in six
years time. Although we hear lot
about Hood River as being famous for
strawberries and apples, and in the
state at large are justly proud of Hood
River as q part of us, the people who
live here may well be proud because of
the spirit Of progress and thrift every
where evident. The city is to be COM
plimcnted on its progressive up-to-date
appearance; the business streets have
all been paved as have some others, and

GIFT APPLES
| WILL GO FAR
ASSOCIATION CARS WELL FILLED
Boxes Of Fruit Go to Far South, Through
out New England and to England
and Scotland

With orders for Hood Rivers class
lest fruit having poured in from all
parts Of the state, the Apple Growers
Association gift cars, filled to capacity,
have started on the eastward journey.
One Of the cars goes to New York and
the other to Chicago for distribution.
The Chicago car carries gifts of fruit
for hundreds of Middle Western towns.
One box of apples will go as far south
as Alabama. Others go to Arkansas
and to Kansas City.
The New York car will bear Christ
mas presents for friends of Oregon
folk whose homes are in New England,
New York state, Pennsylvania and
Washington, d. G. A number Of the
boxes Of apples will be dispatched by
steamer for points in England and
Scotland.
"No gift cars have ever been more
popular" says Harry Farrell, who has
had charge of the gift cars. How
ever. the most of the orders poured in
the latter part of last week.
The Chicago gift car contained S93
boxes of fruit, while the number of
gift boxes in the New York car reached
200. The cars were not fully loaded
and ready until Tuesday, when they
were routed out to their destinations.
The Association continues to ship a
capacity number of cars of fruit daily.
On Monday IA cars were shipped from
the local warehouses.
According to statements Of the Off
cials of the Association a greater por-
tion of the Spitzenburg crop has been
disposed of. Manager Stone says that
it is the policy fof the organization to
work off the fruit that shows poorer
keeping qualities as fast as possible.
However, the Newtowns for the most
part will be held IN storage as long as
possible.
A bulletin from the Northwestern
Fruit Exchange says:
''The crop of the northwest was han
died mainly through three channels,
the two central selling agencies and
the independents whose stock Is now
largely in the hands of eastern commits
sion firms. Officials of the North Pa
cific Fruit Distributors are quoted as
holding over half their tonnage in stor-
age. preferrng the risk, delay and ex.
pense to the low prices reigning from
the beginning of this season. The
Northwestern Fruit Exchange has sold
for cash, its officials say. about three
fourths of its tonnage, and is still TAX
ing the spot market. So far it is said
to have put only 10 or Is per cent into
storage.
"From these facts ii is evident that
the two central selling agencies are ad-
herring closely to radically different pol
icies this season, while the independ-
ents. both individual growers and local
organizations and firms. are more or
less of an unknown quantity. Some of
them are putting practically their en-
tire holdings in to storage. while the
names of others are seen frequently in
the auction catalogues.
