ForSnstance, we grow as fine tomatoes
as can be grown, but when shipped,

SIEG DISCUSSES AUS
TRALIAN MARKET

Discussing the 400 carload order of
apples reported to have been received
by growers of the Wenatchee district,
Wilmer Sieg says: 1--WE do not expect
any Australian business this year.
The British government has issued or
der that British vessels shall give pref
erence to fruits grown in the provinces
and we don't expect to be able to get
space. The Australian buyers know
this and as yet we have received no
queries about our fruit from Australia.
Such a status of affairs produces prac.
tically boy colt of American fruit.
Nor do | think there is going to be
any big demand in Australia for Amer
lean apples. The fruit growers there
have been accustomed to ship large
amount of their product to English
markets. On account of the war and
because the vessels have been used to
transport men and munitions of war,
this fruit has been left at home. Ac.
cording to the information have re-
ceived, the Australians are going to
have large surplus of their own ap-
Piles to consume at home. Then, too,
droughts have prevailed over Australia
and the financial conditions are not
such as to warrant heavy purchases,
even though we were able to reach
them with the fruit"

STRUCK TO GIVE ILLUS
TRATED ART LECTURES

Herman Struck, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
l.. Struck, who now reside at Lyle but
who formerly lived on the West Side
macadam road, will deliver an illus
trated art lecture at the Heilbronner
hall next Tuesday evening, July q.
MIR. Struck, who has been in San Fran
cisco where he has won repute as a
painter and magazine writer, will il
lustrate his lecture with examples of
his own work, showing IL paintings
which are being prepared for an eX-
hibit later intSan Francisco.
Mr.. Struck has won marked recogni-
tion in the city of the Golden Gate for
his mural decorations, having recently
executed nine large pictorial panels in
the Odeon theatre and six pictures in
the San Mateo theatre. The great
proscenium arch of the Imperial the
atre, though under the contract of A.
G. Disc, the well known Italian paint
er, was done almost entirely by Mr.
Struck. This is an allegorical canvass
over 40 feet long and of proportion
ate height.
MIR. Struck, however, is chiefly a
painter of horses, bronchoes and other
objects of western life. His lecture
for the most part will be based on his
experience with that phase of art and
its material. There will be a general
admission charge of so cents. Tickets
on sale at Clarke's drugstore.
Hood River people who have followed
the progress of Mr.. Struck express a
pride in his work. and it is expected
that good audience of Hood River
people will turn out next Tuesday af.
ternoon to hear his lecture.

CHIEF FORESTER EN-
THUSES OVER PARKS

I'VE we're certainly well pleased
with the trip Of last Saturday. when
Portland citizens and We Hood River
men with Chief Forester Graves made
a trip over the Columbia river high
way" says W. l.. Clark. who with
Truman Butler, Homer A. Rogers and
K. 4. Scott represented Hood River
county.
Chief Forester Graves. who was en-
route 20 Alaska. was persuaded by the
Portland men 10 come TO that city and
personally investigate the government
lands that are proposed to be turned
into a public park along the Columbia
river highway. Mr.. Graves grew en-
thusiastie over the suggestions Of the
Portland men, and the IL, 600 acres will
no doubt soon be dedicated to park
purposes.
The main feature of the chief forest
eT's visit, however, for Hood River
people, will be his willingness to aid IN
the opening Of the proposed highway
through the national reserve to the
east of Mount Hood. He has stated
that he will use every influence to Sc
cure a survey of the road as soon as
possible. Indeed, plans are already
under way TO have government engin-
eers go over the route and a party is
expected here in the near future.
Almost half Of the park along the
Columbia river highway is in Hood
River county.
No one is more enthusiastic over the
proposed parks than Asa Benson, who
was here Monday with his family, who
are stopping at Mrs. Howe's Cottage
Farm. 1.-THE park grant by the gov
ernment and the Mount Hood road is
going to be big thing for all of US, |"
says MIR. Benson.

MRS. HERSHNER'S FA-
Their PASSES AWAY

All the children and grandchildren
of the late l.. W. Loughary. father of
Mrs. j. l.. Hershner, of this city, ex-
cept his grandson, Harold Hershner,
who is in Ohio visiting relatives, were
present at the funeral services and in
terment conducted yesterday on the
home place near Monmouth. Mr..
Loughary. whose death occurred Tues
day morning. was an old Oregon pio-
neer. having come from Iowa, his ma
tive state, in 1852. He was 81 years
old.
MIR. Loughary was married in 1863 to
Eliza Simpson, who survives him. They
settled on the Monmouth farm the year
of their wedding. MIR. Longhary was a
veteran Of the Indian war of 1853. On
that year he passed through the pres
ent location of Hood River, ford.ng the
stream al that time called Dog river.
Two sons. Hon. u. S. Loughary, state
senator of Dallas, and Frank Loughary
of Monmouth. and Mrs. Hershner sur
vive. Twelve grandchildren survive
the pioneer resident.

SO CLOSE AND YET SO FAR

The residents of the Underwood and
Hood River valley communities are sit
ated similarly to people who might live
on the top of a couple of skyseraPers.
one building on one side of street
and one on the other, They are neigh
bors. close together and yet very far
away from each other.
The residents of the two fruit districts
have much in common, social inter-
course between the two would be much
greater but for the transportation fa-
cilities. During high water periods,
when the ferry boats of the Hood
River Underwood system, now oper-
ated by Bert Kent, are able to land at
the foot of First street, the Underwood
and Hood River people get pretty we'll
acquainted, but at other times of the
year the long walk across the huge
sandbar north of the city is barrier.
And all this brings us to the point of
wishing that Hood River had public
dock for ferry boats and river steam.

BROADWAY HIT is
COMING TO ELECTRIC

The Jesse l.. Lasky Feature Play Co.
takes pleasure in announcing the film
production of II. II. Warner, the noted
Broadway favorite in last seasons
greatest Broadway dramatic hit, THE
Ghost Breaker" by Paul Dickey and
Charles W. Goddard, the films to ap-
pear at the Electric tomorrow.
The sensation which the original pro.
duction of E!he work created when il
was offered at the Lyceum theatre and
Immediately hailed by all the metropol.
itan critics as an unqualified success,
must still be fresh in the minds of all
people who follow the trend of dramat-
ic events. 1t came to the two-dollar
houses as something novel and refresh
ing something hlled with good red
blood and far from the monotonous
routine of every day modern business
existence. 1t is safe TO say that this
is not only one of the most absorbing
film productions ever made but also one
of the most utterly different.
