PROVIDING The KEYSTONE

For many years we have heard of
cooperation in Northwestern fruit dis
tricts. Cooperative organizations have
been born. have lived their lives, at
intervals successful and at others tenn
pestuous, and have died. Builders of
the arches of cooperative fruit selling
machines have been overlooking the
need of strong keystone, and as
result the structures they have reared
have soon crumbled
AT Saturdays meeting of the Apple
Growers Association. by practically a
unanimous vote Hood River growers
took steps toward providing a keystone
that will bear any burdens. In the
event of pressure, the great purchasing
fund that the new per box tax will
raise will bind the arch all the closer.
No cooperative organization will hold
together very long, at least it is not in
position to withstand reverses and de-
structive conditions, unless it has some
financial strength. The Apple Growers
Association is reaching the point where
it may become strong financial insti-
tuition, the wise administration Of
which will benefit every grower mem

TO SAVE CIVILIZATION

In Liberty bond advertisement in
this weeks issue Of the Glacier the
reader is SHOWN an official photograph
Of a gruesome looking club with which
German soldiers dispatch wounded
prisoners. During the past two weeks
we have read of the murder of women,
childen and church worshippers by ex-
plosions of the long-range gun that has
fired on Paris. The story Of the Lusi-
tania is an old one. Proof after proof
of atrocities in Belgium have poured
in on US and have caused US to shudder
at the barbarism of the Prussian mind.
And this week we are called on to
assemble our material wealth, our idle
dollars and those dollars that we may
save by future sacrifices, to help the
battle against the heavy hand of the
hun. Civilization as we know and
cherish it here in free America is at
stake, and the man or woman who does
not subscribe to his or her utmost for
Liberty bonds indicates thereby pref
erence for Prussian bondage to the
freedom of democracy.

Col F. F. Eastman. u. S. A. retired,
has been here the past week looking
after property interests. Col. East
man is interested in the Capt. Mitchell
ranch at Laurel. He reports that Capt.
H. 4. Mitchell has not been we'll late
ly, due to great strain the of his duties
in charge of the training of artillery
schools. Col. Eastman first knew Capt.
Mitchell in the Peking Boxer expedi-
tion, and he speaks very highly of the
captain.
Patrons of the rural free delivery

Monday after their mail, the rural car
rier having quit the job after having

Mr.. Stauch had been getting a salary
of SlO7 month for carrying the mail
over the % miles of the route of Bur-
doin Mountain. The present high cost
of living. feed for horses and repairs
on wagons, made the $107 look sick
each month, in fact, it took $l2O a
month to keep up the four horses,
wagons, etc, necessary for this route.
1t was a losing game and Mr.. Stauch
must be given much praise for the way
he stuck out on the mail route.

0DELL HIGH SCHOOL
(By Chas. Mcllwraithl

Last Friday afternoon the grammar
school boys came over to play the high
school second team. The grammar
school had pretty narrow escape from
being skunked. Only four innings were
played and the score stood l9 to in
favor of the high school. Our lineup
was as follows: Dick Odell, p; Verne
Hammer, c; Fred Walter fb; Maurice
Graft, sb Johnny Wiekham, tb Harry
Plog, ss Kenneth Krumenacher, rf I;
Elmer Annala, cf Fleming Absher, If.
Fred Eggert pitched for the grammar
school and was easily hit.
The girls team is getting practice
for another defeat.
Ray Hillstrom has been absent from
school for more than a week. You can
never accuse him of being a Stacker, as
the last we heard of him he was plow-
ing. He is the working man of the
family, AS both of his brothers are
working for Uncle Sam.
Last Monay evening the high school
boys sang Keep the Home Fires
Burning" and Where Do We Go From
Here" at the Parent-Teacher meeting.
Tuesday a case of books from the
county library was sent to the school
house. This will reestablish the branch
libary at OdelI. 1t will be open to the
public Friday afternoon, when the Red
Cross meets. Miss Johnson will be
librarian.

An orchardist the other day suggest
ed that the Hood River valley should
have more watering troughs along the
county highways. 1t is true that one
can drive for long distances and be
unable to water his horse. With many
irrigating bitches paralleling the roads
the work of constructing watering
troughs would be easy. The same
orchardist. noting the drinking foun-
tain, for humans only, on Oak street
opposite the First National Bank, ex-
pressed the wonder about what thirsty
horses were going to do in Hood River.
The city council has taken care of this
matter, and convenient watering
trough will be placed on the city
streets soon.

Applying poisonous sprays to fruit
trees while they are in full blossom
often kills many of the bees that have
come to feed on the nectar. Last
spring, reports Prof. A. l.. Lovett, OF
.. A. c., many colonies We're practic-
ally wiped out by careless application
of poisonous sprays. Great care should
be taken he says, to prevent recur-
renee this year. The bees are OF ines
timable value IN pollenization of fruit
trees. increasing the yield of first class
fruit from Is to so per cent. The loss
of the bees this year would be OF itself
a serious matter, because of the neces-
sity of increasing the honey supply as
a substitute for sugar.
The ideal time to spray apple trees
is just after all the petals have fallen.
but with certain varieties the central
and important blossoms have closed so
that the spray cannot be driven in, be-
fore the petals have fallen from the
outer clusters. The standard recon-
mendation is therefore to apply poison
spray to the blossoms of the apple trees
when two-thirds of the petals have
fallen.
To apply the spray earlier than this
serves no additional good purpose and
is highly destructive to the bees.

A Well Preserved Corpse

A press dispatch last week told of a
convivial spirit in middle western dry
state, who was caught shipping in a
supply of wet goods in a casket. Miss
Margaret Reilly. of the local school
faculty, tells of an even more interest
ing dry state incident.
1t was back in Iowa. Miss Reilly s
home state. The liquor was brought
across the line from a wet state in a
hearse. The mourners were all there,
following moanfully in line.
But the mourners were too many and
too mournful. Their lamentations
aroused suspicious, and on investiga-
tion the lamented was found to be in
bottles well preserved.

Constipation and Indigestion

These are twin evils. Persons suf
ering from indigestion are often
troubled with constipation. Mrs. Rob-
ert Allison, Mattoon. H., writes that
when she first moved to Mattoon she
was a great sufferer from indigestion
and constipation. Food distressed her
and there was feeling like heavy
weight pressing on her stomach and
chest. She did not rest we'll at night.
and felt worn out good part of the
time. One bottle of Chamberlain s
Tablets corrected this trouble so that
she has since felt like different
person.

Dee Gets First Honor

The work Of Hood River county
good organization has been shown from
every side this week, and the work
of soliciting committees has been one of
passing out blanks and having them
filled. Many subscriptions have come
in voluntarily. The larger percentage
of Hood River people have already
made up their minds as to what they
are able to give, and they have gone
the limit.
Dee was the first Hood River district
to win Liberty Bond honor flag.
We've gone over the top with our
full apportionment of 81, 600 already
raised" was the message f. H. Green.
phoned to the central committee Satur-
day morning.
Mill employees and oggers of the Or
egon Lumber Co. show 100 per cent
loyalty. The quota was raised by the
subscriptions of workers and the cor
poration. 1t will be greatly increased
/ when orchardists of the district are
heard from.
1 A. w. Meyers, of Cascade Locks,
here Monday, stated that the proposed
meeting of Saturday night, to be ad-
dressed by f. c. Smith, would be un-
Necessary, as the quota of the district
would be oversubscribed by that time.
4 One Of the most enthusiastic meet
ings ever held in the district was the
patriotic all day meeting at Pine Grove
/ Sunday. The afternoon was devoted
/ to promotion of Liberty bond sales.
The patriotic double quartet was pres
ent and instilled patriotism by fine
singing. Addresses were delivered by
Truman Butler and Rev. j. d. Level
len.
The meeting at the Valley Christian
church Sunday morning was truly an
inspiring one. 1t was truly Liberty
bond church service. The sermon OF
Rev. j. b. Lister was an appeal tc
loyalty. t. 0. Blanchar gave brief
and telling talk on the bond:campaign.

Every Hood River community must
reach that goal which will entitle it to
an honor flag. These handsome flags
will be granted whenever the commun-
