THE LIBERTY LOAN

Next Saturday We will begin our
second year in the world 5 greatest
war. We will commemorate the first
anniversary Of our declaration against
the hellish offenses and ambition Of
kaiserism by launrhing the campaign
for our third issue Of Liberty bonds.
A year ago, when war was de1iered,
but small portion of US Americans
had been aroused to seriousness Of our
great task. If YOU will remember,
you frequently heard the talk that the
Allies did not want our men but mere
ly wanted our funds, munitions and
supplies. This was a misleading De
lief, and very likely the PRONUNCIATION
of such an idea had its inception on the
Wilhelmstrasse. Today we see mil
lion and a half of our boys under arms.
and a great, well trained army in
France. The greatest battle of all
times is beirg waged. The hun, mad
dened by the predicament he has found
himself in. like trapped monster, has
hammered at the Allied lines, hoping
for chance TO break through. We
have seen the vandal nation held, and
now our boys over there are marching
into the thick of the fight,
We believe that it is going to be
easier to sell Liberty Bonds during the
approaching campaign than in either Of
the former two We Americans are
awfully slow to be aroused we haven't t
reached the pitch Of climax by any
means yet but when we once get go-
ing, we go strong.
And it may be superfluous advice for
US to urge the people of Hood River to
buy bonds, for they are going to do
Just that thing. Just remember that
we have to subscribe for Sl20, 600 or
more of these securities. the best in
the world today. Go about the task
without any hysteria. Buy all of the
bonds you think you will be able to
pay for. Anybody can purchase and
save as an investment a $50 bond. You
do not have to have all of the money.
You will be required to pay five pei
cent 81. so for $50 bond on sub
scribing; Is per cent a month later. 4(
per cent at another designated inter.
val, and then another 40 per cent after
time. If you are unable to meet
these government requirements the
banks will make you a loan for a rea'
sonabe time.
If Hood River people just do then
duty, we will have not the least trou
BILE. And we would advise the can
vassing teams to look out for Stacker:
and apply the screws to them.

W 0RCHARDISTS, AROUSE!

County Fruit Inspector Angus de-
clares that the Hood River apple in
dustry is in danger from anthracnose.
Mr., Angus estimates that the damage
already caused by the disease. which
attacks the trunks and branches of
trees and disseminates spores that
later cause the decay of stored apples,
will reach s225. 600. We quote Mr..
Angus
Unless checked the orchards of
Hood River will be ruined. The pest
can be destroyed if growers will go
seriously about ridding their orchards
of diseased portions of trees, and they
must spray with Bordeaux mixture at
the close of each harvest. Because
orehardlSts are too busy to think much
of spraying at apple picking time or
because they hate to apply the Bor-
dauX before the apples are picked
thus necessitating wiping of apples.
growers have been prone to forego this
important fall spray application.
Mr.. Angus escorted the members of
the county couit through orchards last
week IN order to show them the raw
ages of the disease He was accom-.

The moon shone brilliantly, spetta.
tors of the great battle on the west
front last week tell us. Unlike the
fruitful harvest moon of autumn, it
was red harvest moon of blood, its
flood Of silvery light revealing the
ghastly heaps of the dull gray-clad
dead of kaiser-driven soldiery, and
among them the cold. still forms of
another order of fighting men. The
boys of France, Britannia and America
were driven, too, but in different
sense. Their impulse and the nerving
stimulus that held them at their posts
until bodies were riddled by machine
gun fire or smitten to :atoms by the
burst Of huge shells came not from a
fear or a lust for blood or conquest
Theirs was fight for love of ideals
and for the preservation of them.

DAVIDSON URGES Bet
TER REFRIGERATORS

The assurance of supply of ade
quate refrigerator ears is the most
serious problem now confronting North
western apple growers, according to
H. f. Davidson, former president of
the North Pacifc Fruit Distributors,
who arrived home Tuesday night from
New York City, where he spent the
winter representing the Hood River
Fruit Co., of this city, and a number
of sales agenices Of other points.
Mr. Davidson has just visited Wash
ington to confer with railway and food
administration officials. He says that
nothing toward relief of the situa-
tion that at present exists has been
definitely decided upon, as no plans
have been adopted for the construction
of the necessary refrigerator cars
However. he states, cork insulation
is being considered The insulation
could be applied to cars now in use as
we'll as those. the construction of which
is proposed
''The matter is very likely to lead to
a conference between apple growers
and shippers and the food administra-
tion in the near future, says Mr..
Davidson, land assured the officials
that we would send somone from here
to explain what we needed to safe
guard our fruit shipments
Mr.. Davidson says that during the
past winter. from early December un-
til March |, AS deliveries were made,
IS per cent of the cars shipped showed
damage from freezing.
Some of the cars were practically
a total loss, says Mr.. Davidson,
| while in others the damage would be
slight. But | would place the total
damage at great deal more than
| S225, 600. Ii is 10 the best interest Of
producer and consumer to keep nor
NAL supply of fruit flowing into the
market throughout the winter months
| To have apples all at once shipped
east, overtlowing markets and storage
houses, would be disastrous. The in
/ sulated car, as proposed, would be
more servlceable for summer and fall
use than that now operated, for its in
sulation would keep out heat Just as it
will be designed to keep out cold, and
i ice bills would be cut IN two
Mr.. Davidson advises growers of the
4 Northwest to use every precaution for
producing high class apple this fall.
He says he has talked with prominent
western New York fruit men who
state that indications are for an enor.
nous bloom of both apples and pears,
although the peach crops of these dis
trcts have been killed.
He SAYS that the unusually successful
sales of small size product have beer
made possible in New York and other
eastern markets this season because Of
the shortage of acceptable barrel sup.
plies. He says that apples of the vari
cites and sizes that are acceptable tC
the New York trade have been in brisk
demand throughout the season.
Mrs. Davidson, who has spent the
winter for the most part administering
to and comforting Oregon men at can
tonments near New York city, returned
home with her husband.

COUNTY Is FAILING

Hood River county. unless a great

one patriotic activity that of buying
war savings stamps and certificates.

on Paris, killing women and children

EOUR MlNUTE MEN

Uncle Sam owes debt of gratitude
to the Four Minute Men, patriotic law
yers, doctors. bankers, farmers and
merchants who have appeared week
in and week out at the electric thea
tres to deliver short and appealing ad-
dresses. educational talks. to the
patrons of the places of amusement.
The Four Minute Man always has Ii
message He gives it without frllls or
super1uity, and his work has had a
vast effect.
Mark Twain once told story about
a missionary. The divine began an
impassioned appeal for funds for the
heathen The humorist, according to
his story, made ready to give $3.50 for
the cause. But the missionary contin-
ued his harangue. Twain cut his pros
pective donation III half, and still the
preacher talked. Again Marx Twain
cut his appropriation. The long
winded missionary talked on and on
and on, and finally, when the plate
was passed, Mark Twain, 50 he said,
abstracted two bits.
And that reminds us of the words of
another humorist, Josh Billings. who
said: Il don't care how much man
talks, if he only says it in a few
words. 4"
Most of us feel Just that way. The
talks Of the Four Minute Men have
often been inspiring. They have al.
ways been educational. and thu
country owes them vote of thanks.
We are glad that we have had here
in Hood River the fine body of men
that Attorney Smith has assembled
for his four minute takers.
