the Pacific Power & Light Co. at Pas
co, having been instructed to report on
September 2 at Fort Leavenworth,
Kas., J. V. Strange, local manager of

prominent in military activities.
MIR. Strange states that Mr.. Hall is
the second district manager of the
company to be called as commissioned
man. Roy F. Dean, former local
man who recently received commits
sion as first lieutenant, was district
manager at Pomeroy, Wash.
Universal expression of regrets are
heard from local people on announce
ment of the departure of Mr.. Strange,
who despite his brief residence, had
won esteem and popularity among Hood
River people. Mr.. Strange expects to
return here in ten days and confer with
his successor, whose appointment has
not yet been announced.
The power concern covers a large
territory at Pasco, extending from
Priest Rapids on the Milwaukee rail-
road to Wallula on the O.-W. r. & N.
1t is one of the banner districtsof the
company, because of the big sales of

|DR. and MRS. SCOBEE
VISIT CRATER LAKE

Returned last week from a motor
trip to Crater Lake and klamath Falls,
DR.. E. l.. Scobee, who was accompan-
led by Mrs. Scobee and son, Russell,
says that one of the toughest stretches
of highway encountered on the entire
journey of 900 miles was between Cas-
cade Locks and Hood River.
I'VE made the trip south by way of
The Dalles, Dufur and Bend" says
Mrs. Scobee, land except for stretch
of highway between Bend and La Pine,
where motor trucks have worn out the
road, the entire distance was good. We
visited Madras and crossed the Des-
chutes at Mecca, encountering here a
long, steep grade that is difficult of
, negotiation.
while at Crater Lake DR.. Scobee
attended an initiation of the Knights
of Pythias on an island within the cra-
ter. Pythians from many parts of the
state were present to participate in the
unique ceremonial.
I'VE returned to Portland up through
the Willamette Valley, after having
visited at Ashland and Medford. From
Medford north all of the roads we
travelled over were in the best of
shape.
while at Klamath Falls we called
at the drug store of Carl A. Plath, for
merly of Hood River, but We failed to
see Mr.. Plath, who was away motoring
in the north"

Aviation PleaSeS Lutte" Carson

The art of flying has made lasting
impression on the young soldier, ac-
cording to letter just received from
Lucian, son of City Marshal Carson.
Young Carson, member of the
Twelfth Aero Squadron, stationed at
Fairfield, o., writes:
81 have had some experience in she
air, and | am quite fascinated with it.
Our commanding officer, Major Leo G.
Hefferman, took me up one day and
looped the loop. 1t was great sport,
and right then fell in love with avail
tion.
81 would advise all the boys with no
dependents and subject to military SER
vice to enlist at once. Of course I
would suggest aviation, for then they
will have excellent chances of seeing
foreign service"

Underwood Crops Good

While the peach crop of the neigh.
boring fruit district is practically q
failure, A. J. Haynes and son-in-law,
Claude Davidson, who own one of the
largest bearing orchards of the Under.
wood district of Skamania county, Wn.,
while here Saturday on business, de.
clared that the apple crop of the Un-
derwood section will be one of the best
ever produced.
"0ur crop in total tonnage" said
Mr.. Haynes, twill be somewhat short
of last season, but because of the clean
condition of the apples, we will proba-
bly, pack out more fruit than on any
former year. Our orchard will yield a
total of 5000 boxes this year" i"
But one Underwood orchardist has a
commercial yield of peaches. j. F.
Dubois will harvest approximately
1000 boxes, it is said.

Homer A. Rogers, proprietor of
Mount Hood Lodge in the Upper VAL

weeks outing spent on journey to
Alaska.
81 made the trip by way of the in
land route" says Mr.. Rogers, land
was thus able to see for the first time
some of the noted fiords, glaciers and
mountains of the indented coast. And
it is wonderful trip. But to me it
does not hold the appeal of the Mid
Columbia"
Mr.. Rogers, who for five years lived
among the Swiss Alps and who is one
of the few Americans ever to have
scaled the Matterhorn, declares that he
is now completely won by Mount Hood
and that he believes his love will be an
abiding one.

FARMERS PLANT A
FIELD OF GRAIN
Hood River, Ore, Aug. 20, 1917.

Hood River, Ore., Aug. 20, 1917.
To the Farmers of Hood River Valley 4:
Gentlemen: 1t is time to wake up.
1t is time now to plant your winter
wheat and other winter grain and for
age crops for next year. Get the land
ready as soon as possible. Make every
acre count. There will be bigger de.
mand for grain and hay next year than
there is at present. Plan to double
your grain and hay yield. The country
needs the food and feed. 1t will soon
be time to get the soil in condition
both for fall and spring crops. Please
bear in mind it is a patiotic duty to
raise all the food stuffs and fodder we
we can. Yours truly,
Kelly Bros.

ANDERSON TO SHOW
CLEVELAND TRACTOR

]. W. Anderson, distributor for Hood
River and Wasco counties, will demon.
strate the new Cleveland tractor at the
Belmont place of j. r. Nunamaker
next Saturday afternoon, beginning at
2.30 o'clock. The announcement of Mr..
Anderson is creating great interest
among the orchardists of different
communities of the valley, and a large
crowd is expected on the Nunamaker
place.
The Cleveland is of small size and
because of the ease with which it may
be operated under trees, it is said to
be especially in favor with orchardists.
1t may be used with equal convenience
in driving farm machinery.
Mr.. Anderson has also taken the
Hood River and Wasco county agency
for the Locomobile.

The Best Laxative

To keep the bowels regular the best
laxative is outdoor exercise. Drink a
full glass Of water half an hour before
breakfast and eat an abundance of fruit
and vegetables, also establish a regular
habit and be sure that your bowels move
once each day. When medicine ia
needed take Chamberlain Tablets.
They are pleasant to take and mild and
gentle in effect. Obtainable everywhere.
