Realizing that in the present world war the stlm- ulaton of all things agricultural are of prime i'm portance, and knowing the great interest taken by the boys and girls, under the direction of the County Agents, Mr. NJ C. Graham and Miss Minnie T. Allen, in their activities farm boys and girls it is a great pleasure to me to be able to make It possible for the boys and girls to come to Little Rock and show what they have been doing.
 It is to be regretted that could not have County Fair but existing conditions make 1t im- practicable. However, l believe that the present arrangement while not elaborate, will be enough to well repay those who have been preparing their club plats, their pigs, chickens as the case may be to make one final effort to round out the years work by exhibiting at the Fair.
 We are very greatly interested III the agricultural development of country and the more eSpe- cially that part of it which gives particular encour agement to the farm boys and girls, for upon them largely lies the responsibility of making our rural life the epitome of what if should be.
 Come, and if you do not win prize let 1t only make you the resolved to do better next year. Let the fathers and mothers encourage and help their children to come.

An Excellent Suggestion

An Excellent Suggestion. Editor Pulaskian:
 Don't you think The Pulaskian would be much more interesting 1T the correspondents would write more general news of their neighborhooas instead of personals only? Also f they would express their views m local affairs it would be entertaining to the rest of us. Why not sugpeet this to them? This is only because ' think the paper could be great force in bringing people together, which ons county agents seem anxious to ao and which they have failed to do yarr successfully so far
 With best wishes for success

RE-HARNESSING YOUR MIND
tBy Ruth Cameron. }

| Is there anything harder than
keeping your mind on your work
just before holiday, especially a
big one like Christmas or a summer
'aeation?" friend of mine asked
me just before Christmas.
agreed with her that nothing
could be harder than keeping one's
mind chained down those last few
days. But since Christmas | have
changed my mind. have remem-
bcred that there is something even
harder putting ones mind back to
work after holiday season.
1t should be so much easier to go
to work after few days rest.
And 1t is SO much more difficult
Your Mind Is Like Sick Child Who
Has Been Spoiled
Ones mind is utterly .unmanage-
able. 1t has been indulged and
spoiled. 1t turns distastefully from
everyday tasks. 1t escapes you and
wanders far afield whenever you try
to harness II to the work of the day
whether that work be auditing an
account or setting a house in roder.
The longer and more important
the holiday season the harder II is
to go to work again.

USE FOR FROZEN FRUIT


twenty-five years ago the or.

frozen in Florida, ard the trees were

here few days ago. Florida had
produced about five million boxes of
oranges the year before the freeze
and produced only about a quarter
of million the year after. Very
many men were bankrupted and il
looked as if irreparable harm had
been done to the state 1t turned
out to be blessing to the state al
large, though for a ime very effectu-
ally disguised.
IT was blessing because on this
catastrophe was founded the estab-
lishment of the vegetable Industry.
which is now one of larger proper
tions than the orange industry. The
fact was demonstrated that Florida
could prosper with the orange trees
all killed. And then as

UNION DEAL CLOSED
BY ASSOCIATION

Following the decree of Judge Nor
row, of Portland, in the case of the
Hood River Orchards Co. versus the
Apple Growers Association, the deci-
sion having found for the defendant
and ordered dissolved an injunction
prohibiting the purchase, the defend
ant sales Iagency has proceeded with
the purchase from the Hood River Ap.
pie Growers Union of storage, ware
house and power properties valued at
$l40,000. Included in the property
bought is water power system, with
which the sales agency operates its ice
machines. The Union plant has been
held under lease by the Association for
past four years. The Association also
holds under lease the storage plant of
the Davidson Fruit Co., owned by H.
F. Davidson, who also owns the chief
plant of the plaintiff in the recent
litigation.
Having purchased the National APP
pie Company's storage plant four years
ago, the Apple Growers Association
now controls all storage space in Hood
River except that of Fruit Growers
Exchange, the local affiliation of the
Northwestern Fruit Exchange.

HIGHWAY SOON TO
BE COMPLETED

When r. A. Klein, an engineer of
the State Highway Commission, ar
rived here Tuesday morning and an
nounced that bids were being called
for on the construction of the IA miles
of incomplete Columbia River High
way between Cascade Locks and Hood
River, the news brought general graft
fication to Hood River citizens.
With a party of five surveyors, Mr..
Klein has begun to reset stakes on the
route surveyed two years ago by ]. A.
Elliott, an engineer of the State High
way department. Similar work is be-
ing conducted by parties of engineers
working from Cascade Locks and Vi
ento.
Provided the bids are satisfac-
tory" says Mr.. Klein, 'the actual
work of completing the grading of
the Highway in Hood River county
should be under way in less than 80
days."
Six miles of the road in this county
was completed to standard grade in
1915 with bond issue of SIS, 600 voted
by citizens of the county. By an ap-
preparation of approximately $50, coo,
the state completed about half mile
of the Highway around and through
Mitchells Point in 1915.
County Judge Blowers, who has Just
ascertained that three short stretches
of right of way have been overlooked,
declares that he and his associates will
speed up all formalities in securing
them. Delay may be met with in get
ting a right of way over short dis
tance of property owned by the STAN
ley-Smith Lumber Co., owing to the
fact that the concern is at--present in
the hands of a receiver.
Judge Blowers was informed over
the telephone shortly after the arrival
of Mr.. Klein by Circuit Judge Wilson,
of The Dalles, that the latter had rem
dered decision favorable to the de-
fendant in the case of j. w. Morton ct
al VS.. Hood River county, wherein the
plaintiffs, through technicalities were
endeavorng to abrogate the right of
way secured by the county across their
property.
