SAW MILL WILL
BEGIN OPERATION

Mosier will soon have new payroll
of about $1,000 per month. The sale
of E. L. Roots saw mill and planer to
W. R. Bailey and H. Kersten, both of
Portland. who have had considerable
experience in the saw mill business,
has just been completed by w. A.
Firebaugh, of Portland.
They will begin saving lumber on
July 23rd, and expect to run the mill
at full capacity through the entire
season. One of the first orders on
their books is filling large contract
for ties for the Union Pacific Railroad
company, on which they will begin
delivery on August l.
Mr.. Kersten, who is spending a
month in an automobile tour of Cal
ifornia, expects to make his home at
Mosier shortly after his return, where
he will look after the interest of the
firm.
In view of the fact that these people
understand the business and have
ample capital, Mosier is assured of a
pay roll of $1,000 month for some
time to come. They will be able to
take care of all local demands for lum-
ber, which will in itself be a great
convenience to the people of Mosier
and surrounding country.

TOLL CHARGE IRKS
TOURING MOTORISTS

Numerous motorists passing through
Hood River the past several days have
expressed criticism of the toll
charges assessed automobilists that
cross the old toll bridge over the De-
schutes river between Wasco and Sher-
man counties.
1.-The toll charge of 81 for an auto.
mobile" says d. W. Wade, of Wacso,
who passed through here last week en-
route to Portland, sis exorbitant. The
owners of the bridge are taking in
500 daily. The condition is giving US
Oregonians, who have been heralded
as good roads enthusiasts, black eye
with the motor car parties from other
states.
Until recently, | am told, the gov
ernor and other members of the Ore
gon State Highway Commission never
knew of the 81 toll charge. The ar
rival of the governor in the vicinity
has always been heraldei before hand.
and when the state authorities crossed
the toll bridge the gate would be left
open and no evidence of charge for
use of the bridge would ever be made.
But recently Governor Withycombe
was attending meeting at Wasco and
decided to travel into The Dalles by

Rules for Country Correspondents

One of the most valuable assets a
country weekly can have is that cooper
alton from clever and energetic county
correspondents. The news OF the county
should be covered by a good correspon-
dent in every community. The brief,
newsy letters from the rural centers are
the making of country weekly.
The Glacier feel like congratulating
itself on the list of good, live news gath.
erers, who each week fill many columns
with readable news of local happenings.
AS far as the real gathering of the news
is concerned there could be no great inn
provement. However, there are some
few, simple rules that could be followed
benetically. II country correspondents
will observe the following, the page Of
country items will be more attractive
and can be set by The Glacier without
innumerable annoyances that sometimes
arise when the rules are not observed.
Always secure, where possible, initials
of persons. Don't say Mrs. Smith and
daughters visited Mrs Brown and fam
lily. If it is Mrs John Smith or Mrs. A.
A. Smith, designate then by their
proper initials or given name.
Always give definite dates.
Do not use abbreviations, except in
case of given names.
In case of a fire, give cause, total dam
age and insurance, if any.
Remember The Glacier sets country
correspondents on Tuesdays. Endeavor
to mail your letter, so that it will reach
the office by Tuesday morning. We'd
nesday is reserved for the setting of the
news happenings gathered IN the local
office, and if the country correspondence
piles up on Wednesday, the office force
is badly hampered. A little co-opera-
tion on the part of the country corre-
spondents will in many cases prevent
late hours for the Office force on We'd
nesdays.
If any important news happening
breaks in your community after your

FINS, FURS AND FEATHERS

Not far from his own back yard, in
the West Side orchard district, DR.. j.
Williams, a Civil War veteran, last
week caught one of the largest steel
head trouts reported by fishermen in
the Mid Columbia this season. The
big fish, twenty eight inches in length,
and tipping the scales at eight pounds,
was take from the Farmers Irrigating
company ditch supplying DR.. Williams
ranch with water.
DR.. Williams discovered the fish sew
eral days ago when he attended the
watering of his orchard tract. Nu-
merous attempts to catch the big
fellow ended, however, when the fish
took refuge in an inverted siphon
under road. DR.. Williams finally
hemmed the log steelhead Friday, and
the family feasted on baked salmon.
Screens are set across the mouth of
the irrigation canal, fed by Hood
River, and the steelhead must have
entered the big ditch by making 10
foot leap over the headworks.

SINSEL AGAIN BUYS
MOSIER PRUNE CROP

The Mosier Fruit Growers Asocia-

were so we'll pleased over the deal
made Hast year that terms have been
agreed upon and the local prune crop
has again been sold to Mr.. Sinsel at
satisfactory price. The buyer expects
to pack them again in the association
warehouse, in the fresh state, as was
done last year. This is good news to
local people, many of whom find en-
ployment at the warehouse at that
time. After an inspection of local or
chards, MIR. Sinsel pronounced the
Mosier prunes in fine shape.

Mr.. Wade declares that members of
the county courts of Sherman and
Wasco counties have held joint meet

ways and means of taking over the
