A TESTIMONIAL OF
BERGLUND'S WORK

As testimonial OF my work in the
orchard, | would have Hood River grow
ers contemplating such work read the
following letter written to me by II. NJ.
Grant Of the Belmont district:
"July 90, 1915.
"Mr. c, A, L. Berglund,
HIP 5th St, City.
''Dear Sir:
81 desire to say that the work you

work.
" The gratis which you put in the
Spring Of 1914 have attained strong
and luXuriant growth, and those put in
during the past Spring have vigorous
and satisfactory growth, and the prun-

and 1t gives me pleasure to commend
You for your work.

BL00DLESS BATTLES.
One Campaign Where a British Army
Did Nes Lose q Man.

The battle Of Futtehpore, one of four
fights In eight days, In the midst Of a
forced march of 126 miles to the relief
Of Lucknow, was as far as the small
British force is concerned absolutely
bloodless, and Havelock's classical "or-
der Of the day" puts the fact on record
In one of the battles against Akbar
Khan In Afghanistan the result was
almost equally surprising. 1t was the
punitive expedition Of 1S42 after the
massacre at Kabul and the horrible re-
treat from which only DR.. Brydon es-
capped. This battle made up some
what for the frightful disaster, for the
victory could not have been more ccm-
plete.
The Afghans were driven headiong
into the river, and camp, baggage, ar
tillery, horses, standards and arms Of
every kind were captured. together
with abundant ammunition and provi-
sions, while Akbar fed. Yet the Brit
ish only had ten killed
Probably the only bloodless cam
paign ever undertaken by the British
was the Abyssinian expedition against
King Theodore led by Lord Napier Of
Magdala. 1t was this bloodless war
which gave him his title.
Although the British army consisted
Of 10000 men and although they were
met by the enemy, who put up brave
fight, and although they stormed Mag
dala, situated on cliffs so steep that it
was said a cat could not climb them,
yet not a life was lost on the British
side.
If the last Ashanti expedition against
King Prempeh could be dignified by
the name of a campaign then 1t must
be added to the list of bloodless wars
Certainly it cost the life Of Prince
Henry Oh Battenberg, the husband Of
Queen Victoria's youngest daughter
and the father of the queen Of Spain,
but of other casualties there were none

FLORAL SOCIETY WILL
WORK FOR BEAUTY

"A more beautrIful valley" is the
solgan of the Hood River county Floral
Society, the regular monthly meeting
of which was held Monday evening.
The society has launched a campaign
to increase interest in planting shrubs
and towering plants along the high
ways. Its members also protest against
the cutting of trees along the roads.
1--WE want to see hollyhocks take the
place of weeds, " says President Lara
way, "and California poppies the place
of the hated poison oak. Our associa-
tion will be glad to discuss proposed
improvements with anyone, and we
will assist in the selection of plants
and shrubs that are best adapted to the
locality in which they are to be plant
ed. Our organization will study plant
culture and give out information as to
methods to be used in growing flowers
locally"
The floral society will hold meetings
the first Monday in every month.

REAL CORN MEAL

Sam Jackson. publisher and editor
Of the Portland Journal. who on ocea-
sions recalls with smacking of the lips
the corn pone Of his old Virginia, may
soon be able to secure the fundamental
making of this delicious food in Hood
River.
The dull hum of the old millstones,
that a quarter Of a century ago con-
verted the grain of the Hood River val
ley into -four and meal, will be heard
again at J. r. Phillips sawmill on
Phelps creek a few miles west Of the
city. And Hood River rsnchers, those
who have planted corn, can shell a
hushel or two and drive down to the
Phillips mill and have the pleasure OF
waiting and watching the dusty miller,
after he takes his little toll, make
meal from their own grain.
An epieure Of the old south. il offered d
some Of the so-cs led corn bread of to-
day, would probably remark that he
fed his pack of hounds on better food.
The making of real corn pone depends
on the manner in which the meal is
ground. The com grains must be
cracked by slowly driven mill stones.
No power has ever been devised that
does this better than water-at least.
that is what your corn bread connois.
seur will tell you.
But we are amateurs. and we feel
like Sam Jackson can be Of great SER
vice to the Hood River valley if he will
but give lis a little dissertation on
proper methods of making meal. We
now have the mill and the corn.

In commenting on proposed road
through The Dalles around Mount Hood
The Dalles Chronicle says:
at is to check this campaign of Hood
Riverites, who would eliminate The
Dalles from the loop trip itinerary,
that local citizens propose to build the
new road from Wards mill to Govern
ment Camp. This would shorten the
distance from this city to the camp by
at least 30 miles, at the same time
affordine splendid road and wonderful
scenery.
Why should The DalIes hinder the
construction of highway from the
Upper Hood River Valley through the
National forest reserve to the Barlow
road? We doubt If Rufus Holman,
Multnomah county commissioner, and
local officials who were instrumental in
interesting Chief Forester Graves in
the proposed forest road, ever once
gave The Dalles a thought. They don I
care to eliminate anything from The
Dalles. Certainly. The Dalles should
20 ahead and work out roads for her
benefit as diligently as she pleases. but
she should not get peeved because Hood
River is first to open the door to Op.
pOrtunity,

A VALLEY OF FLOWERS

The Floral Society has begun a good
work. Hood River has already become
known as a community of beautiful ru-
raj homes, but improvements can be
made .along many of the highways.
Weeds now grow alongside the thor
oughfares in many places, and the
traveller is as unfavorably impressed as
though he had looked at carelessly
dressed or slovenly man or woman.
These strips are just as repulsive as is
tramp, his touseIed hair laden with
the filth of box car floor.
We look forward to success for the
new society and its campaign. The or
ganization has representative list of
members from both town and country.

FIGHT FOR PRINCIPLE.
His Task Seems a Hopeless One, Yet
He Sticks to the Job.

He Sticks to the Job.
Every little while you hear somebody
say: 1T isn't the expense l mind. It's
the principle of the thing"
United States treasury officials have
found that the country is overruu with
persons who feel just that way. Here
is one case:
Some years ago the crew of a gov
ernment revenue cutter gave an enter.
tainment of some sort, and, according
to custom, assessed the cost Of the
affair among those aboard. Each mans
share was taken from his pay. One
young man was not in sympathy with
some feature of the entertainment and
objected to having to pay his share. 1t
cost him only 80 cents, but 1t was the
principle of the thing.
He began to write to the assistant
secretary of the treasury, who had
charge Of the revenue cutter service,
and demand justice.
That was years ago and the man has
averaged about two letters n week ever
since. He numbers his letters, and the
last one was numbered seven hundred
and something.
Two or three years ago he resigned
from the revenue cutter service and Is
now living in New York, but he is still
after his 80 cents and the establish
ment Of great principle.
When Charles Dewey Hilles was an
assistant secretary of the treasury he
sent the man his personal check for 30
cents in the hope that 1t would end the
long correspondence, but It did not.
The man promptly sent back the check,
saying that he did not want the money
but justice, and that the 80 cents must
come from the government itself.
And so the correspondence goes on
with no sign of ever letting up.-Cin.
cinnati Enquirer.

feet. Undoubtedly they would have
been croaking like frogs but for the
delivery by Walter Ford, of Perigo &
Son, of enough coffee to last them dur
ing the week.
The delivery of the coffee is the rec
ord for Hood River merchant. The
three reeleteers did not discover the
absence of the makings of the beverage
until they unpacked their camp equip
ment on the purling banks of Jones
creek. Lou Morse, of Spray, who was
visiting in town and who drove them to
the mountain forests, brought back
the message that they we're in urgent
need of the solacing berry, and Walter
Ford was the GOOD Samaritan"
Despite the rain and the unfortunate
episode of the coffee, Mr.. Banchar,
Judge Derby and Mr.. Robertson re-
turned happy, for they had excellent
luck in the virgin streams.
