The REPLY OF THE STATION MEN

While their words of defense hold no
brief for the system under which they
are operating. j. X. Winston and Le-
Roy Childs, the young men in charge OF
the local branch of the Oregon State
Experiment Station, in defense of them
selves have set forth some points in
answer to an editorial in last week s
Glacier. And grave defects in the op-
Grafton of the station are shown. 1t
seems that, while unique, the fact that
the entire acreage of orchards of the
community forms an experimental plot
for the workers is a burden rather than
a help. The experimentalists declare
that they could get better results if
they had tract, absolutely under their
control snd observation, on which to
carry on their work.
We continue in our opinion that the
local station has failed in the task for
which it has been provided, and that
the full return has not been received
from the $4,000, expended by state and
rountv

Il wild and almost unknown land.

In the interior are volcanoes and vast

as station bill, giving the post of duty

requires that there shall be drills once
each week at least and that during the
stay Of ship In port these drills must
be performed In the presence Of Unit
ed States inspector of steamships. This
Is done to insure orderly and prompt
action against any danger that may
threaten. During these drills the

the Inspector or the ship will not be
permitted TO sail until repairs have
been made and everything works as 1t
should.
Some ships are provided with tubes
let into the deck and extending into
the holds containing thermometers,
which are examined every four hours.
Any suspicious increase In temperature
brings about immediate and thorough

Brush and grass fires are getting too

Hood River should remember that an
ordinance provides that no fires for
burning rubbish should be set without
permission from city authorities. A
close observance of this law and an.
other that provides that all property
owners keep down growths of weeds
