MRS. HAMMOND Is
HAPPILY MARRIED

Mrs. Emma Hammond, an elderly
widow of the Heights section of the
city, who left the early part of last
week for Denver, Colo, where she met
James Chapman, of Sterling, who, .ac-

Hammond as his bride provided the
temperament of the two seemed com.
patible.
Mrs. Hammond and Mr.. Chapman,
who had been participating in court
ship by mail, pleased each other, as
was evidenced by their marriage i'm
mediately following their meeting.
The latter event, however, was de-
layed two days, the prospective bride
having been a victim of the snow

HIGHWAY CONTRACT
SOURCE OF WORRY

A section of the Highway right of
way contract, executed by Hood River
county authorities and O.-W. X. N. Co.
officials in 1914, has bobbed up to ere
ate worry for several private individu-
ais and to puzzle county officials. ..---- .---
The contract provides for a relin-
quishment by the county of all rights
of way for county roads crossing the
railroad company's tracks or lying
within railroad property between the
O.-W. r. N. right of way and the
south bank of the Columbia river. The
concession was made by the county in
consideration of the railroad company
permitting sections of the scenic high
way being built on the south side of it
right of way.
J. W. Morton, who owns a ranch
west of the city, and j. II. Koberg, the
truck gardener just east of town, de-
clare that they will be seriously affect
ed. inasmuch as the outlets from their
places are county roads crossing the
railroad track, which must be vacated
according to the terms of the contract,
when the Columbia Highway is COM
pleted.
The Interpretation placed on the con-
tract by the ranchers is confirmed by
County Commissioner Hawkes., who
protested the execution of the docu-
ment when it was submitted to the
county court.
Through the terms of the con-
tract" says Mr.. Hawkes., "Mr. Nor.
ton and Mr.. Koberg must necessarily
make some private arrangement with
the railroad company about crossing
their tracks. For as soon as the High
way is completed, the county, under
the contract, must vacate the crossings
that connect their ranches with other
county public roads. Because of this
section of the right of way contract,
Mr.. Morton is refraining from giving
the county right of way for the Co.
llmbia Highway as surveyed across
his place.
But the Highway right of way
contract goes even farther. 1t is spec
flied in its terms that we were to va
cate in 1916 grade crossings at Ruthton
and Herman creek just this side of
Cascade Locks. By the ultimate route
of the highway, as surveyed. these two
crossings will be eliminated. But at
present the county has not sufficient
funds to construct the expensive sec
tions of road necessary for this elimin-
alton, and tourists are crossing the
railroad tracks merely on sufferance.
ut is true that the Ruthton crossing
will be done away with the coming
summer, provided the proposed con-
struction of the new section of road
over Ruthton hill is completed.
Condemnation proceedings may be
necessary to secure right of way
through the ranch owned by Mr.. Nor
ton

MISS THE MARKET" Well all of
you know what happened in 1912. The
EXCHANGE averaged s0.6S per box
NET CASH for the entire output, all
grades and sizes of the Cashmere Union
output, and so. 20 for the Peshastin as
soeiation. These figures net after de-
ducting all marketing charges. While,
so far as We know, these are easily the
highest figures received by any shippers
for the entire outputs that season, the
pity of it is they might easily have been
25c per box or more higher. had the sit
uation been met at the psychological
moment.
However, you cant blame those men;
they would have been most severely
criticised had they taken the bull by the
horns-now wouldn't they? This mark
citing game takes courage and also the
keenest sort of judgment. In my talk
No. /, | remarked that Judgment not
based on knowledge Gnformation) is
worthless. 1t is just as dangerous for
a man to pass judgment on fine point
like this when he is without reliable up
to-the-minute information, as it is to
monkey with a buzz saw" BUT,
when he has the information if he does
not act on it, it's like the man who has
gangrene in the toe and can not muster
up the courage to amputate the toe and
so delays. Pretty soon the gangrene is
up to the knee and if he doesn't ampu-
tate then, after awhile he will have to
amputate at the hip to save his life.
When 1914 came along, and more ad-
verse set of conditions than 1912 pre-
vailed, the employers of the EX-
CHANGE, having learned lesson,
met the situation much more promptly,
with the result that great majority
of their holdings were sold at the mark
ct, at harvest time, with results that
lead the entire Northwest, and showed
the growers profit over the cost of
production.
| shall tell you more about these mat
ters in my next talk, which will appear
in the next issue of this paper.
Faithfully yours,
