Autoists to Work Roads
From the Mosier Bulletin

For the purpose of aiding the local
and tourist travel over the county
highways, It is being planned to set
aside day in the near future when
local autoists and others will arm
themselves with .rakes and shovels to
clear away the loose rocks In the road
and fill up the small chuck holes. The
idea will include doing this work from
the top Of the mountain between Mo.
sier and Hood River and also along the
highway between this city and the top
Of Seven Mile hill. The plan is mer-
itorious one, and should bring out q
good crowd to make success Of this

GAME COMMISSION
IS CRITICISED

The attitude of sportsmen and eiti-
xens Of the Upper Hood River Valley,
who recently have raised strong pro-
test at the failure Of the Oregon Lum-
Der Co. to construct an adequate fish
ladder over dam across the Middle
Fork Of Hood river at the eompany's
mill at Dee. is not justified. according
to members Of the Hood River County
Game Protective Association.
s.It is true that fish ladder 10 badly
needed" says D. Mcdonald. "and this
10 admitted by the lumber company.
Chas. T. Early, manager of the COM
pany, has assured me that his company
is ready at any time to construct
dam that will conform to plans accept
able to the State Game and Fish Com
mission. Mr.. Early and our organiza-
tion have made every effort toget rep
resentatives Of the Commission to come
here and make recommendations for the
proposed Dee ladder. Still We can get
no repsohse. The Commission alone is
to blame for the delay in the construc-
ton OF the ladder"
Mr.. Mcdonald furthermore declares
that the State Game and Fish Com
mission has failed to cooperate With
local irrieationl::s companies In the
screening of bitches to prevent small
fry from getting into canals and event
ually into berry fields and orchards
where they die. The irrigation COM
panies are ready to provide any screens
that the Commission may suggest 0r

have YOU Weak LUNGS?

Do colds settle on your chest or in your
bronchial tubesf Do coughs hang on, or
are you subject to throat troublesl
Such troubles should have immediate
treatment with the strengthening powers
Of Scott's Emulsion to guard against
consumption which so easily follows.
Scott s Emulsion contains pure cod liver
oil which peculiarly strengthens the res
piratory tract and improves the quality of
the blood; the glycerine in it soothes and
heals the tender membranes of the throat.
Scott's is prescribed by the best special
lists. You can get it at any drug store.
