STRANGE TELLS OF
ELECTRICAL PROGRESS

w hen one contemplstes a box Of
Hood River apples, says J.N. Strange,
assistant general manager Of the Pacific
Power & Light Co, here from Portland
on a tour Of inspection last week, II
would never occur to him that electric
ity h6d anything 10 do with the perfec
ton IF the beautiful package Yet
electrical power will perhaps be used
in grading and sizing 80 per cent Of the
?. o00 carloads Of apples shipped from
your valley this year. Practically all
growers who use power sizing ma
chines, which effect saving of labor
more so than any other orchard device,
drive them with electric motors. More
than 80 such power graders have been
purchased here this year. and We will
be called on 10 make connections and
be ready to offer our service to that
many lndiviGal or community packing
concerns Power graders also, | am
told by experienced fruit men, result
in a desired standardization of pack.
MIR. Strange says that he knows Of
no agricultural district Of the state
where electrical power is so generally
used by rural residents as in Hood Riv-
er.
We sell far more energy to Hood
River orchardists than to rural resi-
dents of any other of our Offices in Ore
gon and Washington, he says. "0ur
lines penetrate every district, except
Dee. where the Oregon Lumber Co.,
operating its mill with electrical power,
furnishes light. We have Is miles of
distributing line in the Hood River val
lev, where the area in cultivation does
not exceed Is, 600 acres. Most all orch
ardists homes are lighted by electric
ity. Washing and ironing is accom-
plished in many instances with electri-
cal energy Our development here has
been rather extensive. | find that our
records show that for every 81 of gross
increased revenue we have expended S.
in property Investments.
MIR. Strange, who left here for tour
of the White Salmon country, stated
that his company had found orchard
lists. whose profits from fruit sales
have been unusually good the past two
wears, interested in an issue of pre-.
ferred stock offered by his concern.
We are trying to stimulate this in
terest, says the electric man, "realiz-
ing that it Will result in a better CO.
operation for future development in
the orchard districts p"
Mr. Strange warned apple grocers
who will complete new packing plants
this year and who will require service
/ for elevators and motors to make
/ known their wants as soon as possible.
I'VE find it very difficult to obtain
materials in our line" he said "and in
order to prevent shortage or con
gestlon at harvest time. we should
know the requirements of the district
at once. f"

IN telegram received today BY
VIM -Griswold, City Food Admin
istrator- United States District Attor-
ney Joseph l.. Bodine calls the atten-
tfon of the public and food hoarders
to the real teeth" in the food laws.
The telegram is sent to all of the food
administrators in the state, and lays
emphasis on the provisions of section
6 of the Lever Food Act of 1917 pro-
yiding $4,000 fine or two years i'm
prisonment or both.
The district attorneys telegram
reads:
II now wish to call attention to the
portion of Section of the Food
Control bill of 1877. which is still in
force, and which in my judgment
makes it possible to enforce the fair
prices that your committee will
shortly fix.
The pertinent portion of Section
6 is as follows: That any person
who wilfully boards any necessaries
tthat is food supplies) shall upon
conviction thereof be fined not ex-
ceeding $4,000 or imprisoned not
more than two years, or both. Nee
essaries shall be deemed to be hoard
ed within the meaning of this act
when withheld under any contract OF
arrangement from the market by any
person for the purpose of unreason-
ably increasing or diminishing
prices
The city food administration made
special effort to inform the press OF
the prices that had been decided upon
in order that they might take effect
today and tomorrow, when much OF
the marketing for the week end is
done.
The list of prices and fair margin
decided upon by the County Food
Administrator Mettler in conjunction
with the United States District Attor-
ney Bodine, includes most of the sta
pie food items A fair margin is al
each retailer. The highest of the two
prices quoted is for the best quality
In credit and delivery stores. the lower
prices are for second quality in cash
and carry stores.
Mr.. Griswold said that he expected
to have his price fixing committee
named by this evening. It Is probable
be on the committee representing the
public and the various businesses
affected. He said that when approach
ed with a request to serve on the
committee everyone so far had been
anxious to assist in every way possible
and that none. had refused 10 serve SO
far The general impression was that
of the utmost Importance to the COM
munity at this time and the members
named SO far nave been eager 10 share
the responsibilities, even to the. extent
of interferink with their own business.
The price list as issued today is
subject to change at any time Mr..
Griswold said. 1t is understood he
said that this price prevails through
out the state at this time and 1t is
probable that within few days slight
adjustment may be made as they af-
feet the various districts and COM
munities throughout the several coun-
ties The committee is naturally
forced to allow a margin between the
prices charged for various grades OF
foods and for the service rendered
by credit and delivery stores The
fact that a commodity is sold below
the list price does not necessarily inn
ply that the article is inferior.
