Bone Sells Corn For Seed

c. r. Bone, who perhaps has planted
more apple trees in Hood River than
any other man, finds corn growing
very profitable. On his Central Vale
holdings last year Mr.. Bone produced
more than two tons of White Capped
Yellow Dent. Because of the quality
of the corn he is finding keen de-
mand for the grain for seed purposes.
1t is selling fast at 10 cents per pound.
While millers are making offers for
the product, Mr.. Bone says he will en-.
deavor to place his entire crop in the
hands of growers. With local seeds.
men supplied, Mr.. Bone is now supply.

VOLUNTARY SUBSCRIP-
TIONS ARE EXPECTED

Numerous voluntary subscriptions are
expected by the Liberty Loan commit
tee. In fact, number of citizens,
who were overlooked when lists were
being made for soliciting teams, have
already appeared at the banks and
have volunteered gratifying subscrip-
tions to the great loan.
''lt was inevitable, says Chairman
Blanchar, that some names were
overlooked. But we would urge those
on swhom no solicitors have called to
come to one of the banks at once and
turn in their subscriptions.
The committee expresses sincere
qualification at the manner in which
the Hood River county people have re
sponded to the call for loan subscrip-
tions. Every district has reached the
allotment, and Liberty Loan honor
flags will fly in every Hood River
county community. AS early as Tues
day night, the official figures in the
hands of the committee showed that
more than Sl50,0o0 had been sub
| scrihed

Seven Deaths Is Toll
of Influenza Epidemic
Within Borough Limits

Seven lives have thus far been
forfeited to the grim reaper through
the influenza route since the cpl
demic started here, two deaths
therefrom occurring yesterday. Many
new cases of the disease were re-
ported yesterday and even the vol
unteer squad of Boy Scouts had all
they could do in rushing reports Of
the new cases to the board of health.
Scouts yesterday covered every doc
tor in the borough but so busy were
the latter that only two physicians
found time to make their reports.
One of these reported forty cases
and the other ten.
The emergency hospital on the
Cottage Hill athletic field under the
supervision of the State. Board of
Health treated twenty cases yester-
day.

STEELTON
Borough Police to Check
Up on Number of Cases
of Spanish Influenza

The Steelton police department will
to-day make a house-t house canvass
to ascertain the complete number OF
persons stricken with influenza in the
borough. This canvass will be under
the direction of Burgess T. T. McEn-
tee and Chief of Police Grove. All
cases of the disease will be immedi-
ately reported to Health Officer But
Ter. 1t is hoped that the people of
Steelton will cooperate with the po-
lice department, as there is large
amount of territory to cover in the al
loted time.
With three more deaths reported to-
day. there is a total number of ten
deaths in the borough since the cpl
demic started Although the Boy
Scouts were working hard yesterday
to discover the number of new cases
the doctors were so rushed that the
boys couldn't get complete reports to
the Board of Health. One of the local
physicians reported forty new cases
and another doctor reported ten.
At the emergency hospital. twenty
persons are being treated for the DIS
ease, and it is expected that more pa
tients will be received before even
ing. Several more tents are being
erected by members of the state
Arsenal force. Captain Battley is In
charge OF the hospital.
