FRUIT BUYER ABHORS
PAYING PROFIT

As j. j. Castellini, of Cincinnati,
states. "A buyer abhors paying profit
to another" That is the reason that
hundreds of jobbing firms in the United
States do not deal in box apples. That
is the reason that the consumption of
fruit sold at auction is increasing at
the expense of the demand for box ap-
pies.
The "less than car lot" jobbers must
get their supplies of box apples through
a few large dealers with whom the
shippers now deal, while all other
fruits from the Pacific coast are to be
had at the daily auction.
Many of the growers appear to be
under the delusion that because they
are producing package of great mel
it, the demand and price should be sat
isfactory.
In order to sell, the box apple must
have statesmen. Is it not better to
have hundreds of salesmen, who get
their supplies on an equal basis--from
the auction-than to have a fewer
number who must buy from their larger
rivals?
There is great advertising value to be
gained from placing high class pack.
age before all the trade of a great city
each morning. A prominent official of

no doubt among the California Ex-
change officials but that auction selling
forces consumption. ADV.

Why Depression Comes
Hood River People Will Find that for
Every iii There Is A Cause

Defiance of certain natural laws causes
business depression. Defiance of other
natural laws causes depression of mind
and body. Uric acid and kidney weak
ness are modern evil, produced by over
work, hustle, worry, excesses, meat eat
ing and careless living. Kidney dis
eases do great damage, usually before
they are discovered, so it is well to take
warning from kidney backache urinary
disorders, pains when STOPPING or lf:-
ing, dull headaches dizzy spelle, rheu-
matte pains, etc. Neglect may pave the
way for some dangerous kidney trouble.
Doan's Kidney Pills are used in Just
such cases and recommended all over
the civilized world. Hood River people
are well represented in this grand cho-
rus of praise. Here's one of the Hood
River cases:
Mrs. NJ. A. Douglas, 1926 Seventh St.,

subject to backache, and during that

Record Term of Court

The recent term OF circuit court, pre-
sided over by Judge Bradshaw, of The
Dalles, is the first in the history of the
county that has been adjourned for the
second week. On former occasions
Judge Bradshaw has always finished
with both criminal and civil cases with
in single week.
The grand jury, which finished its la
bors Saturday night, has returned eight
indictments, double the number of any
former jury. Six of the indictments
were for larceny. one for an attempted
assault and one, against Guy Miller,
for failure to support his family.
To the Hon. W. l.. Bradshaw: We,
the grand jury, called for the regular
July term of the above court, after re-
ceiving our charge. proceeded to the
business at hand, and have examined all
matters bound over to this body from
the justice court, and have returned
bills into court from time to time as
found; we have also given our careful
attention to all other matters presented
to the jury voluntarily and have acted
upon same.
We have made an examination of the
county property, including the Jail, and
recommend that some kind OF appropri.
ate sign be placed on this building to
identify same. We also recommend
that the building be made more fire
proof and the roofs and sides covered
with some material less infiamable than
wood. We also recommend another
iron door opening out situated at the
northwest corner of the Jail building.
We also recommend ventilated iron
shutter OIL rear of Jail building, fixed SO
that tools, firearms, ETC.. cannot be
passed through to prisoners.
We also cell attention to the fact
that the city marshal is doing ianitor
and guard duty for the county without
pay or help from the county.
We find from an inspection of the Jail
ana conversations with the prisoners
that they are receiving every care pos
sible, and had no complaints to make.
We find cells, toilet, floor and walls
and everything appertaining to the
county ard city Jail in very clean and
orderly condition.
We have examined the county Offices
and fird these departments in an order
ly and businesslike condition. and the
books of the various officers neat and
well kept.
We have had the county Judge before
us. and after going over the care of the
poor, widows pensions and kindred
subjects, find that these matters are
having business like attention.

ranch house, Ell Corregidor, is located
in the Upper Hood River Valley, to
have the forest trees along the Neal

who have travelled in the Orient and
other parts of the world. declare that
the stretch of about four miles up
Neal creek forms one of the most
beautiful drives they have ever trav-
eled over.
'As the road is today" says Mrs.
Tucker, with its border of frs, vine
maple and other native shrubs. it is
as beautiful as the famous Cryptomeria
Way just out of Nikko, Japan, a road
that draws its visitors across the Pa

Col. and Mrs. Tucker and other local
citizens will endeavor to secure the
cooperation of the county court in pre-
serving the privately owned timber

of business. because of the large num-
ber of boxes of strawberries and cher

the season is ended it is estimated by
Postmaster Reavis that far more than
a carload of fruit will .have been hand

ORCHARDISTS WANT
COAST ARTILLERY

Although the more recent reports
from the Mexican border would Indicate
that war is growing less imminent. the
stimulus of the recent critical situation
has imbued the young men OF the East
Side orchard district with such mill
tary spirit that local militray organ
izati0n may be formed.
"An organization of 40 members has
already been formed" says Ned Van
Horn, ''and we can increase the number
to 3d."
4 The East Side orchardists will at
tempt to get company of Oregon
coast artillery, and wrote last Friday
to Acting Adjutant General Wilson, of
Portland.
''We have a meeting scheduled for
next Thursday evening"" Mr.. Van Horn

ate any information you may be able to
send as to our chances of securing
coast artillery company. DR.. F. c.
Brosius, of this city, major in the Ore
gon Medical Reserve. will vouch for
our sincerity and ability to put this
thing through"
In case of failure to secure COM
pany of artillery, the young men will
try for an infantry company.
A spirited race between Hood River
and Marshfield for company of Ore
gon coast artillery will probably ensue.
The boys of the coast city won in the
first lap in that they made first formal
application.
News of the precedence of Marshfield
application was received Monday by
Ned Van Horn, young East Side
orchardist, who has been active in Or
ganizing company. in letter from
Adjutant General Wilson. of Portland,
who, however, indicated that the Coos
county boys might be deficient in num-
bers and other requirements.
On receipt of the communication from

the school district, which is comprised
of the city and surrounding orchard
community, were seeking to condemn
six city lots belonging to Mr.. and Mrs.
Mcdonald. The lots will be used as
site for proposed grade school build
ing.
Members of the school board secured
an option, calling for purchase price

option, however. was secured from Mr..
Mcdonald alone. His wife refused to
sign deed for the property. She de-
clared that the lots were worth more
than $1,000. Because of her refusal
and further Irregularities in the option,
the condemnation case was brouhgt.

Syracuse. Kan, Dec. 14.-Following

charged with the murder of Sheriff
Martin Moore of Morton county, was
started in earnest this morning. More
than eighty witnesses have been sum-

brought here on a change of venue.
The shooting occurred at Rolla,
county seat of Morton county, on July
of this year Won Wormer, it is
claimed, had beer shooting at chick
ems belonging to a neighbor. Com
plant was made and Sheriff Moore
placed Won Wormer under arrest. A
controversy ensued between the sher-
IF and constable as to which should
make the arrest, and the prisoner was
released by the marshal.
Moore secured a warrant and went

cans, the loss caused by floods in this
section of the state would be reduced
to a minimum, and, inasinuch as the
flood season usually is in early sum-
mer, there would be no injury to the
nut crop.
THE northern limit of the natural
growth of the pecan is the Mar1as deS
Cygnes river and it's tributaries. while
the western limit is the Walnut river

conditions pecan trees attain large
size and produce large quantities of
nuts. Some of the largest trees are
fully three feet in diameter and IS
feet in height.
Increase Yield and Quality.
In years of heavy production, such
a tree produces from 500 to 500
pounds of nuts. During the last Is
years the price paid for these nuts has
varied from to Is cents per pound.
There are two ways by which the
yield and quality of the Kansas pecans
may be increased materially. The first
is that of improving woodlot condi-
tions where the pecans are now grow
ing, 80 as to give the trees more room
to develop broad spreading crowns and
thus increase their yielding capacity.
This improvement will be most
readily accomplished by cutting out
the trees of other species that are in
terfering with the best development of
the pecans, thus reducing the compe-
tition for soil moisture and allowing
the pecan trees greater supply of
plant food, which will materially in
crease the size of the nuts grown.
In thinning the native timber, it
will be necessary to exercise care and
judgment to avoid possible injury to
