FROST CAUSES NO
DAMAGE TO APPLES

While no frost damage has been re-
ported by the fruitgrowers of the Hood
River valley, the past week of prevail
ing cold rains and damp. cloudy days
took toll of the cherry crop. The dam
age to cherries because of failure Of
blossoms to pollenize is placed at rs
per cent. While as yet no damage is
apparent to apples, it is portable that
the rainy weather will result in lack
of pollenization and cause drop Of
the young fruit later. Growers. how
ever, say that this will be benefit
rather than damage. as it will elm
mate the cost of heavy thinning during
the summer months.
r. l.. Smith, pioneer grower of the
valley and formerly president of the
Oregon State Horticultural Society.
says that he has compared the temper
atures of the Hood River valley at the
frost damage season of the year with
those of other sections of the United
States, as compiled by B. s. Pague,
formerly director of the United States
weather bureau at Portland, and the
local records show the highest temper
atures during that time.
Local records show that in the his
tory of the valley no damage has ever
been caused to the apple crop because
of frost.

CANNING COMPANY
ANNOUNCES PRICE

The Hood River Canning Company in
announcing prices to be paid for fruit
this season desires to call attention to
the following facts:
Four cents per pound will be paid for
Strawberries upon delivery and your
crate back. You know exactly what
you are getting. And you can use these
crate over and over again. Last sea-
son some crates were used II times.
Our canned fruits are making q
splendid reputation for Hood River
wherever they 60. The principal rea-
son for this is that they are canned
soon after being picked, retaining all
of their original flavor and firmness.
Nothing is lost. And that is where
the grower makes money by dealing
with US.
In Strawberries we want the fully
ripe fruit. This enables the grower to
allow the fruit to remain longer on the
vines to gain in weight. A crate of
good canning berries will weigh more
than shipping berry. The sooner the
berries are delivered after being picked
the better it is for the grower, as there
is no loss in shrinkage.
4
Fresh berries are easier to stem,
thereby enabling our women employees
to make more wages. 1t will thus be
seen that il you take particular pains
to bring in thoroughly ripened, fresh
fruit. you enable us to put up much
better article. you make more money
yourself by securing the maximum
weight, and you assist a number of
deserving employees to make better
wages.
Another point to be considered.
When you get ready for field picking,
just give your strawberry field good
thorough soaking, and note the great
increased yield of fine berries.
Four cents per pound will be paid for
cherries as they come from the tree
(tree rum. This is absolutely net to
you, without selling charges or dis
counts of any kind taken out of it. And
also. your box back.
The advantage of allowing the cher
ries to fully ripen on the tree is even
greater than it is with berries. You
will gain at least rs per cent in addi.
tional weight than If you shipped your
cherries to outside points.
A fully ripened cherry with plenty OF
color is exactly what we need for the
best canned product. Phone 1881.

BERRY FESTIVAL
Is PROPOSED
BLOSSOM WEEK MAY BE RELOCATED


A suggestion of w. ]. Davidson, a
West Side fruit grower, who proposes
to celebrate annually the strawerry
harvest instead of the apple blossom
season, will no doubt receive endorse
ment from local citizens after the
furry of the elements last week end
and on Sunday.
LET US call the proposed berry cele-
bration," says Mr.. Davidson, "a Clark
Seeding festival. By June we are
having weather that can be depended
on to be good. The roads from Port
land and other cities would then be at
their best. We might we'll expect to
have hundreds Of visitors come here by
automobile. How often have we been
chagrined in the past at blossom season
because of inclemency of the weather.
al would say that it would be good
advertisement for US to feed our visit
ors at the berry harvest season on rs
much strawberries and cream as they
could eat. We now produce fine Jersey
cream, and everybody knows that our
Clark Seeding strawberries have no
equal"
Weather of all our seasons prevailed
here in the "a hours from five o'clock
Saturday evening till the same time
the next evening. Snow fell in the
Upper Valley and on the surrounding
high points Saturday night. White
capped peaks greeted the eyes of resi-
dents and visitors alike on Sunday
morning as they gazed across at the
Underwood orchard district and the
bald points east of White Salmon.
However, by $50 O'Clock the brilliant
sunshine that prevailed part of the day,
had melted the white blanket.
Despite the weather conditions Hood
River had fair number Of visitors.
A score of automobiles came here from
Portland over the Columbia river high
way, and the O..W. R. & N. local Sum-
day morning added number to the
sightseers. The hotels were fairly
we'll filled with guests.
Yet, because of the poor weather,
Hood River people will look back at the
blossom celebration Of 1916 and think
of what it might have been il the
weather had remained good.
The cold rains are said by growers
to have caused no serious damage to
fruit. However, reports from over the
state indicate that the cherry, prune
and pear crops of other sections will be
materially reduced. Young gardens in
eastern Oregon were frozen.
