RAPID PROGRESS IS
MADE ON HIGHWAY

Unless labor troubles interfere.
grading of the Columbia River High
way from Cacade Locks to Hood Riv-
er, except for the Ruthton hill section,
will be fully completed and the road
open to traffic within the next two
months, according to Walter G.. Att
well, general foreman of the Kern
Construction Co., who was here Satur-
day to receive his commission as de-
putty sheriff
Mr.. Attwell stated that work was
progressing rapidly despite frequent
disagreeable incidents with workmen
of l. w. W. tendencies. He declares
that every effort has been made to
weed out the discontented element,
whose demands are unreasonable.
For instance said the visiting
road man, 'the |. w. w. demand mat
resses and springs at their sleeping
quarters. They have issued the threat
that they are going to burn their
blankets on May,l, and that employers
must furnish comparatively luxurious
beds. The minimum wage, for an
eight-hour day, on our works. is So, SO.
and no ore can raise an objection to
that.
Mr.. Attwell says that good progress
is being made at Ruthton, where the
grade of the Highway is being cut
through almost solid rock. The crews
of men at Ruthton are now making
preparations for the discharge of a
blast of carload of powder within
about week. 1t is estimated that
the huge blast will move 10000 yards
Of rock.
Mr.. Attwell safes that 225 men, at
seven different camps, are now at work
on the Highway between here and Wy

J. A. WILSON WAS
A GREAT BOOSTER


The late Joseph A. Wilson, news of
whose death at his old home in Cherry
Tree, Pa, was received here last
week, played an important part in the
development of the Hood River valleys
fruit industry. Mr.. Wilson. planter Of
one of the earliest commercial orch
ards. was the first sales manager of
the old Hood River Fruit Growers
Union, organized for selling the val
ley s strawberry crops before early ap-
pie orchards had begun bearing. He
was ever known as one of the sincerest
boosters of the Oregon apple industry.
The orchard planted by Mr.. Wilson is
now known as the Brinkhaven tract.
1t is owned by the Seeley-Dresser Gro.
Gerry Co, of Portland.
In addition to his orchard develop
ments Mr.. Wilson early saw the possi-
bilities Of water power here. He Sc
cured rights of the waters of Indian
creek, and constructing flume, lead
ing to big reservoir at the edge of
the Heights, developed water power
system of more than 200 horsepower
When the property grew to be one of
The most valuable in Hood River, Mr..
Wilson enjoyed telling how he was de-
rided by neighbors when he first men
toned his plans. The water plant, by
direct transmission of the power
through water motors, now drives the
refrigeration machinery Of the Apple
Growers Association. the machinery of
the Hood River Apple Vinegar factory,
one of the largest of its kind on the
coast, the Snow-Forden machine shop
and numerous smaller manufacturing
plants. Shortly before he left here
Mr.. Wilson sold his water plant to the
Apple Growers Association for almost
$50, 600
Mr.. Wilson was well known in Port
land. Until he left here in 1912 he
never failed to attend the meetings of
the Oregon Horticultural Society, of
which he was member His chief
hobby was baseball. No Oregonian
was ever stronger booster of Beaver
teams than he. Mr.. Wilson never
missed game played in Portland.
His gifts of Hood River strawberries
and apples to the Portland club gave
MN SlCde popularity. iic NlSiltu -lUe
grounds and knew most of the teams
personally Players often visited him
here.
Another idiosyncrasy of Mr.. Wilson,
he lived in tent, the sole structure of
vacant lot, although he was one of
the wealthiest of Hood River citizens.
He did this, not through miserlness,
but because of his health, for the sake
of the open air. However cold it got
or however deep the snow might pile
up, Mr. Wilson was never driven in
doors.
Mr.. Wilson's health broke down in
1912, and for this reason he left his
beloved Oregon to be with relatives IN
Pennsylvania. He is survived by a
single son, imports Wilson, a student
at an eastern college.
The Commercial club, of which Mr..
Wilson was one of the founders, has
adopted resolutions of respect for the
deceased pioneer orchardist.

HOW TO SAVE
MORE GASOLINE

The Hood River office Of the Stand
ard OH Co. has recently received a list
of suggestions on methods to save
more gasoline. These suggestions are
recommended by the National Auto.
mobile Chamber of Commerce. The
rules not only save more gas. but users
of motor vehicles will be benefited
personally and individually through
moresetficient and more economical OPP
Grafton of cars. Here are the rules:
Store gasoline in underground steel
tanks.
Use measuring pump and hose. They
prevent loss by fire, evaporation and
spilling.
Don't spill or expose gasoline to air
it evaporates rapidly and is danger
Gus.
Don't use gasoline for cleaning and
washing use kerosene or other mater
ials to cut grease.
Stop all gasoline leakage. Form a
habit of shutting off gas at tank or
feed pipe.
Adjust brake bands so they do not
drag. See that all bearings run freely.
DDu l ltl bHt engine run WHEN car II
standing. 1t is good for starter bat
terry to be used frequently.
Have carburetors adjusted at service
stations of carburetor or automobile
companies they will make ordinary
adjustments without charge.
Keep needle valve clean and adjust
carburetor (while engine is hot) to use
as lean mixture as possible. A rich
mixture fouls the engine and is waste
ful.
Pre-heat air entering carburetor and
keep radiation covered in cold weather
this will insure better evaporation.
See that spark is timed correctly
with engine and drive with spark fully
advanced-a a late spark increases gas
consumption. q
Have a hot spark, keep plugs clean
and spark points properly adjusted.
Avoid high speed. The average car
is most economical at 10 to % miles an
hour.
Don't accelerate and stop quick ly
it wastes gas and wears out tires.
Stop engine and coast long hills.
Cut down aimess and needless use
of cars. Do a number of errands in
one trip.
Know your mileage per gallon. Fill
tank full and divide odometer milage
by gallons consumed.

AMERICAN SHIPS
NEED OFFICERS

About 1900, 600 tons. dead weight Of
shipping Is planned for construction
by the American government in Oregon
and Washington this year. Ii was pos
sible 10 have attained this splendid to-
tai in steel and wood ships had the
government placed contracts eXpedi-
tioulsy and given all possible encour-
agement To the builders of the two
North Pacific states. These plans
were for about l ,0O0,000 tons in each
state, Oregon taking about 600. 0t0 tons
in wood and 400. 600 in steel. and
Washington 600, 600 tons in steel and
400. 600 in wood.
To officer the steel ships planned for
the two states this year would require
more than 500 deck officers and like
number of engine room officers For
the wood ships more than 1000 deck
officers will be required, and approxi-
matley like number of engine room
officers. or a grand total of deck and
engine room in both states this year Of
well above 8, 900 officers.
Steel ships will be commissioned at
the rate of II to Is per month in the
near future. while the pace at which
wood ships will go into the service will
be greater as soon as the vessels now
commencing to be launched are well
started on the finishing stages.
Recognizing the imminent need for
officers, the government has estab-
lished nautical schools, with free tui-
tion in leading Northwestern cities,
one being stationed at Portland. A
six-week course is given in these
schools to men having a minimum of
Is months actual.sea experience. and
those passing the prescribed examina-
ti0n after the course are licensed to
become officers on the new government
ships. Prof. Arthur Williams, Electric
Building, Portland, has charge of the
Oregon school, and applications should
be made to him by those Interested.
All seamen with experience who do
not care to. take the officers course are
appealed TO for the manning of the
vessels under construction. c. b. Ken
nedy, in charge of the operating de-
partment of the IT, S. Shipping Board
at Portland, has ycharge of the work Of
hiring seamen for the ships sent to sea
from this state.

HOOD RIVER MUST
FURNISH 4 MEN

Oregon must furnish 1863 men for
military service and entrain them for
Camp Lewis between March % ana
April 2. as is share of 80. 600 men 70
be called - throughout the United
States on those dates. Hood River 5
quota is four men.
No county in the state IS to be ex-
empted from this draft call, according
10 orders Just received from the war
department by the adjutant general of
Oregon. The 369 men TO be taken from
the state on this call will be credited
later on the quota Oregon is called to
furnish in the new draft, the date Of
which is yet TO be announced.
Although the 1863 men required will
be inducted out of Glass in sequence
of their order numbers. this important
exception will be made:
Because of the scarcity of farm la
bor. the President has given orders
that "the call to the colors of men ac-
lively, completely and assiduously en-
gagged in the planting or cultivation OF
crop, but who are in Glass | and
within the quota. should be deferred
until the end of the new quota.
Instruct your local boards. there
fore. ;" continues the order, THAT the
President directs that, in filling this
emergency call, they shall pass the or
der numbers of such men and defer
their call for the present. 1t must be
borne in mind that this step is taker
solely in the need of the nation and
not for the benefit of any individual.
Therefore, while boards should con.
slider it grave duty to exercise this
power to conserve and augment the
agricultural production, they should
observe closely the coaduct of those
deferred and Immediately upon becom'
ing convinced that any person SO de.
ferred is not giving his entire time
and earnest attention to agricultural
duty. or that he is tritiing with the dc
ferment thus granted him, the boarc
should forthwith call him to the colors
"Ali citizens should assist in making
this expedient forthwith and in bring
ing to the attention of the boards
cases meriting deferment as we'll as
cases in which deferment is being
abused"

SEVEN HUSKY MEN
AND NOT A PENNY

|. W. W. suspects. seven men, three
of them negroes, were arrested by
