CITIZENS ARE URGED
TO CLEAN UP

The second week in May has been
designated by the state as Clean Up
Week. 1t will also be observed in
Hood River city and county by agree.
ment with the civic committee of the
Woman's club.
Those who are depending on other
people to remove their garbage and
other matter, offensive to the sense ,of
smell and sight and to general de-
cency, should not wait until thatstime.
They should begin the work right now,
for means during that week may not
be available for all.
If we are to prevent an epidemic of
infantile paralysis this summer and
fall every manure pile, unsanitary toi-
let and garbage pile should be annihil-
ated, so that myriads of flies may not
be the messengers of death to the ba-
bies of your neighbors, if you have
none of your own to be infected.

Health Officer.

plant of 10000 feet daily capacity at
Bridal Veil, of a plant from the Wind
River Lumber Co. of equal capacity at
Cascade Locks and large timber hold
ings on the headwaters of Wind river,
in Skamania county, Wash, one of the
largest timber deals of recent date has
been consummated.
Nelson Emry, superintendent of a
local distributing plant of the purchas-
ing company, who has just returned
from Cascade Locks states that he un-
derstands the Bridal Veil company will
take over the new property within the
next two weeks. The Wind River
Lumber Co., owned chiefly by Wiscon-
sin capital. was under the management
of Clark W. Thompson. The logs were
sent by raft down the Wind river and
RATED across the Columbia.
The company making the disposal of
the big timber holdings has not been
operating at capacity for several years.
The Bridal Veil company, it is stated,
expects to construct railway to tap
the heavy holdings and their plans in.

ALL OF 1916 CROP
OF APPLES SOLD

Except for about eight carloads of
late keeping varieties that have al
ready been purchased, the storage
plants of the Apple Growers Associa-
tion, the total tonnage of which for
the 1916 season reached $40. 900, are
now empty and the big ice machines
are engaged in turning out supply
for the refrigeration Of express cars
to be used in strawberry shipments.
The remaining storage apples have
been paid for and the shipping agen-
cy's clerical force is busily engaged
getting out the. data on the final pools
of last years apple crop, the biggest
in the history of the local fruit indus
try. A total of $l15, 900 was distrib-
uted to the concerns affiliated growers
last week.
The Association is now making
ready for the handling of the 1917
strawberry crop, which because o.. the
tardiness of spring will not begin to
move in carload lots it is now predict
ed, before the middle of June. In
normal seasons car shipments of the
berry crop which reaches around 100
carloads annually, are made between
May Is and June l. Ripe berries are
harvested about six weeks after the
first blossoms. Local berry acreages
have as yet shown no signs of bloom

FOOD CAMPAIGN
WELL UNDER WAY

With the local campaign for the in
creased cultivation of staple foods well
under way, the food preparedness COM
mittee, headed by Mrs. w. L. Clark, is
now directing its attention toward in
teresting city residents in raising more
poultry.
1--WE ought ALL. says Mrs. Clark,
"build a little hen house in our back
yards and thus provide our own eggs.
Our committee is gratified at the man.
ner in which the people of the city
have taken hold of the food campaign.
We would urge, however, that plant
ings be made as much as possible of
such foods as will not spoil. We ought
to plant articles that we can can or
keep over the winter in dried state.
''The agricultural class of the high
school has completed the task of a
survey of all available vacant lots.
While but few available plots have not
been taken those desiring space for
planting may be able to secure the
same by comforting with Prof. Me-
Laughlin, a member of our committee,
who is superintendent of the city
schools"
The food preparedness committee in
addition to taking an active part in
putting forward the local planting
campaign is visiting different valley
communities and assisting in the or
ganization of similar committees. The
Barrett people have been visited, adj
dresses having been delivered by DR..
j. W. Sifton, Mrs. G. H. Castner, Mrs.
Clark and Prof. Mclaughlin. The 10.
cal committee will go to Oak Grove
Friday night and start a food prepared
ness committee.
Mrs. Castner was present in Portland
Saturday at the meeting attended by
DR.. W. j. Kerr. president of 0. A. c.,
who has been placed at the head of the
Oregon food conservation campaign.
She declares that the meeting was a
momentous one and will result in a
great deal of benefit. 1t is planned to
make survey of the entire state simi.
lar to that conducted here. Approx
mately $4,000 will be needed for this
campaign between now and July l.,
when federal appropriation has been
called for by Secretary of Agriculture
Houston.
One of the things of greatest impor-
tance now facing the state authorities
is the securing of proper seeds. Those
having surplus seed as we'll as those
desiring them, are requested to COM
municate with the Oregon Agricultural
College.

ARTILLERY BALL
TOMORROW NIGHT

The Artillery club, men of Twelfth
Co., will give ball at the armory to-
morrow night, the proceeds to be used
in swelling the mess fund of the COM
pany.
The government appropriation is
rarely ever large enough to sufficiently
and properly provide the new national
guard companies. Indeed. such organ
izations, when called for mobilization,
are accustomed to have a fund called
the mess fund, to supplement the gov
ernment appropriation. Do you know
that the Hood River boys have no
such fund?
Do you Furthermore know that rare
ly in the history of such military or
ganization as Twelfth Co. have the
residents of home community been
called on for so little as has been the
case here in the artillery company or
ganization? Twelfth Co. has broken
well set precedents and has proceeded
along its way quietly and modestly
The boys now need some financial
assistance.
The foregoing words ought to be
enough to swell the crowd at tomorrow
nights dance. Be there to show
Twelfth company members that you
are behind them.

ROAD MEN PRAY
FOR SUNSHINE

Not only the rancher and orchardist,
but the Hood River county road builder
is praying for sunshine. Orchardists
and strawberry growers are about a
month behind with their work. At
intervals when the sun is shining the
exhausts of sprayer engines simulate
the popping of machine guns on bat
tie front.
IF we would just have a week of
dry, warm weather." says County
Commissioner Hannum, who is devot-
ing his entire time to road improve
ment, 1--WE could get local highways in
fair shape. We have already spent
$4O0 on the east extension of the Col
umbia Highway over the Mosier hill,
and that section of the Highway is
now fairly good. 1t will be fine as
soon as it dries up. We are working
on the highway west of town near
Wyeth.. Because of lack of proper
drainage the road bed at this point was
nearly all washed away last winter"
The warm showers are causing cher
ries and other early fruits to burst
rapidly into blossom. Orchardists fear
a lack Of pollenization if the rains con-

FINS, FURS AND FEATHERS


Six large. V-shaped flocks of wild
geese. noisily honking, winged their
way northward Friday over the Hood
River valley, and local weather fore
casters declare that the migration of
the big honkers to their nesting ground
is conclusive indication that the long
delayed springtime of 1917 is now ar
rived.
Those who saw the flocks of north
bound geese estimate that at least
1900 big birds were in the six fiocks.
Poachers are shooting China pheas-
ants in the Frankton district, accord
ing to s. F. Blythe an orchardist of
that district.
"Our old house cat," says Mr..

that she had been seriously injured and
that her body was filled with bird
shot.
Local disciples of Isaak Walton, who

NICE PROFIT |SIIMADE
ON RED CROSS MEALS

Yesterdays Oregon Journal stated
that the Albany Red Cross chapter
had cleared $3.50 on feeding the re-
cruits passing through that city en-
route to American Lake.
The local Red Cross did not feed
as many soldiers as did Albany. also
the bill of fare was decidedly boun'
tiful. electing, both from the SOL
diers themselves and representatives
OF the railroad company, many ex-
pressions OF praise and satisfaction.
OF course. the prcfit earned by the
local Red Cross is due to two things,
donation of the services of between
75 and 100 women and the dona-
tion of large portion of the sup
plies. The local balance sheet shows
a total receipts OF about 800. total
expenditures of about s325 and a
profit to the chapter Of approximate
" 1915. This sum will be used in
buying Red Cross supplies. largely
yarn for knitting articles of soldier
wear.
