According to Theory, Electrical Action
Is Responsible for Storms That
Frequently Do Damage.

The formation of hail through cleo
trical action, according to one theory,
is an interesting and even wonderful
process. The wind draws out 4 CLOUD
into q long, narrow strip. In that
form, owing to the great amount Of
surface exposed to the air. the cloud
evaporates rapidly, producing intense
cold. 81.
Dry particles Of snow are then form.
ed, and these, by friction with the wa
ter drops, quickly become charged with
Negative electricity. But the water
drops carry positive electricity, and
since negative attracts positive film
of water is formed upon each snow
particle and is instantly frozen into
a layer Of thin Ice.
At this thickness Its outer surface
remains moist, the water not freezing
so rapidly there, whereupon the cleo
trical charge changes from negative to
positive and the particle Is repelled Dy
the water drops and driven to the
outer parts of the cloud. Here the In
creased cold covers It with snow, and
friction charges 1t anew with negative
electricity.
Repulsion is now once more changed
for attraction, and the particle rushes
back into the cloud, receiving upon Its
surface another film Of water, which
Is turned into a second ice layer.
Thus the growing hallstone darts
zlg-zag through the cloud, piling up Its
alternate layers Of snow and ice, until
gravitation gains control and sends 1t
with a jIngllng crowd of its fellows
spinning to the ground. -'H%-,.

Kindness to Animals and People.

So much of childish cruelty is
thoughtless that the help to be OBJ
tained from Bands Of Mercy Is ap-
parent. To make boy understand the
misery that his airgun and his fish
hook may cause, to show the cowardly
cruelty in throwing stones and in hurt
ing innocent and defenseless creatures
this Is what the Band Of Mercy may
accomplish.
There is abundant testimony from
teachers who have introduced humane
teaching into their schools, to the effect
that the children are not only kinder
to the lower animals, but also more
thoughtful and considerate toward
each other.
We want our boys and girls to be
strong and brave, but in no way can
their strength and bravery be made
more certain than in protecting the
weak and helpless.

Commissioners Establish A New
Quick Record

The DeSoto County Board of
Commissioners established q new
record for expeditions work on
Monday, eclipsing all previous
time records by many hours. In
spite Of this however, a vast a
mount Of business was transacted
as the official proceedings will
show.
The commissioners met al their
room in the court house in regular
monthly session at 10 O'Clock
Monday morning, with every
member present and set for
speedy action, and with Auditor
Eance's table piled high with bus
mess demanding the action of the
board.
By 1 O'Clock the commissioners
had concluded their business, and
by 6 o'clock Auditor Vance had
made out, signed and mailed war
rants covering every bin fled a.
gainst the county during the pre-
ceding month. And this bunch
OF bills in itself was no small mat
/ ter.
But the record of quick action
established by the board did not
IN any manner impair the tror.
/ oughness of the work of the ses.
sion, as the session was really one
OF the most important in the mat
ter OF big business transacted OF
any held in recent months.
The only work left over on the
table Of Auditor Vance at the ad.

'portant session was the matter Of
compiling the minutes of the
meeting, and this work was speed

one wonder why the machine has
not been in common use here all
the time. 1t is on the order of an
elevator and has a conveyor belt
which carries the fish from the
boats to the fish house. This ma
chine carries the fish to another,
along which is a bench on which
stand two men who grade the fish

oranges are graded in the packing
houses. The machine is run by a
fye-horse-power engine and saves
eighty per cent. of the time and

Unshaken Testimony

Time is the test of truth. And
iDoan's Kidney Pills have stood
the test in Punta Gorda. No

the monthly meeting Of the Hood Riy-

members Of which instigated work on
the scenic forest route and secured the
cooperation of the forestry service in
its construction. The government, it
is stated, will furnish three carloads
of the powerful explosive for the TO-
mile stretch of road work.
The explosives and other materials
to be used by the forestry service. 1t is

AS a result of agitation by the Game

FRUIT RATES WILL
HIT SHIPPERS

The Traffic Committee of the Fruit
Growers Agency, the members Of
which held conference at Spokane
the first of the week, will make a
strong protest to the International
State Commerce Commission at hear
ing set for July l6 in Portland, accord
ing to c. W. McCullagh, a member Of
the Agency's traffic committee, who
returned yesterday from Spokane.
Mr.. McCullagh says that the adop-
tion Of Perishable Fruit Ta'iF No. J.,
proposed for the regulation of fruits
forwarded with heater or refrigerator
service, will be disastrous for north
western shippers The rate of increase
ranges from Is to 125 per cent At
present the heater service from here
to New York City on a carload of ap-
piles is $27. The revised rates provide
for a charge of $55. On refrigerator
service, the present charge is $40,
whereas the increase will bring the
cost to S9S.

mittee of fruit shippers present at the
Spokane meeting were j. Curtis Rob
inson, DR.. H. l.. Gearey and J. II.

Foreign Markets
Are Now Open

They are the best markets in the
world for Hood River Apples.
We have twenty branches in Eng
land-conneCtions in all markets of France
and Scandinavia We do not need to
hunt our trade; we have it already
We think we have the best SER
vice and distribution in the world, and
we offer this to Hood River Apple Grow
ers knowing that our results will Justify
their confidence.
We have made permanent invest
ments in Hood River Valley and will
make more. We are here to stay as
long as apples are grown, and our or
ganization is available not only when
apples are easily sold but also in years
when the market is doubtful cash buy
ers cannot be found, and the best sales
manship and the widest distribution are
necessary to market the fruit at satsfaC-
tory prices
The value of any business to
community lies in the money brought
into and the service rendered to the
community.
We are proud of the fact that we
have always taken care of our growers
in manner entirely satisfactory to them.
We are also proud of the fact that
for the six years we have been Operat-
ing in the Valley our net average returns
to our growers have far exceeded any
other returns or prices made for apples
from Hood River
We need tonnage, and we believe
that our record shows that Hood River
Valley needs the Dan Wuille Company.
Due to transportation conditions
during the war this company has never
had fair opportunity to demonstrate
its sales ability. We are now in a pos
ition to do this and we want your
fruit.
We will buy your apples if you
prefer selling to consignment
If you COnSign we can assure you
an organization and a distribution second
to none. We actually sell the apples
ourselves to trade that we sell some
thing to every day in the year. This
trade needs at least thousand cars of
Hood River Apples They have asked
us to secure them.
We know that we can
get you the most money
for your Apples.
If you are growing Apples to make
money come in and see us.
