L. @. MEACHAM SUG-
GESTS TOUR SIGNS

l.. 0. Meacham has suggested that
Hood River people should capitalize
the brands of their Blue Diamond and
Red Diamond apples. as marketed by
the Association, and mark two tours
through the orchard districts with large
arrows and the apple box labels.
Mr.. Meacham. who has just returned
from week in Portland, says that
never in the history of the city has
there been such demand for for hire
cars by visiting tourists.
eve stopped at the Benson" says
Mr.. Meacham, "and | gathered my in
formation from the taXi-starter whom
know very well. He said that fre-
quently people, having heard of Hood
River through the districts apples,
asked to be driven there. But in al
most all instances the drivers of the
for hire cars are ignorant Of roads in
the valley. No signs direct anyone to
smooth drives off the Highway, and
the sightseers come to the town of
Hood River and return without ever
seeing an orchard.
Mr.. Meacham believes that huge
signs should be placed at the west
edge of town directing visitors to the
two proposed sightseeing tours of the
valley. He says that he drew approxi-
mate logs of journeys that might be
aiken here, while he was in Portland,
and that as a result five parties saw
he orchard districts and were well
pleased.

WIPE APPLES WELL
SAYS DAVIDSON

The 1920 apple DEAL according to H.
F. Davidson, who is Just back from a
trip to New York City following at
tendance at the Chicago convention OF
the International Apple Shippers AS
sociation, is going to be characterized
by an elimination Of speculation.
Growers are now holding at prices that
do not tempt speculative elements, he
says, and the condition results in a ne
cessity on the part of growers and
shippers to finance the marketing of
their crops or take the prices specu-
lators are willing to pay. Growers
must arrange for storage, he says.
Mr.. Davidson. in commentinggon the
recent action of the Boston health
authorities in refusing to permit sale
of a carload of California pears be-
cause of traces of arsenate sprys, says
that apple growers should carefully
wipe their fruit this season.
Here in Hood River" he points
out, 1--WE are making heavy application
of Bordeaux mixture this season for
control of anthracnose. This spray
leaves an offensive looking sediment,
and growers should see to it that the
fruit is not packed until wiped"
He says that the advance in freight,
about 25 cents per box. where apples
are shipped under refrigeration, and
20 cents without, is having a material
effect in preventing purchases of ap-
pies. Except in isolated instances,
where shippers secure space on some
tramp vessel, he does not anticipate
any shipment of apples through the
Panama canal to Europe under refrig-
arafinn

Just Little Stories

1t is rare that real boy has grown
to manhood without having tucked
away somewhere in his memory some
recollections of jokes played on him by
his elders in the days of barefeet and a
face spotted with freckles. Times
have not changed in this respect, and
| Wayne Mendenhall. whose father, M.
f. Mendenhall, is member of the
freight office force, as he grows older
will look back on incidents of one day
last week with more of a levity than
he ls willing now to grant them.
Wayne has just begun his early
teens. He recently became the proud
incumbent of the position of shine boy
at the Hotel Oregon. A customer pre-
sented pair of white shoes. The lads
stock of polishes included only browns
and blacks. He made an inquiry of
someone as to how he was to shine
such shoes, and was promptly instruct
ed to call on E. E. Brett, of the Mount
Hood Motor Co.. who had stock of
white lamp black. Mr.. Brett's supply
had been loaned to another garage.
Indeed, young Mendenhall was kept
chasing for the full part Of half day
in quest of the elusive white lamu
black One of the garages had lust
sent it on to another. Finally the tie-
titious preparation for white shoes
could not be found and young Menden-
hall was sent to the .kresse drugstore
with a prescription for a bottle of
H-2-O, declared just the thing for his
task. He paid 10 cents for two ounces
OF water, which he applied to the
shoes.
The Joke, however, was'on the owner
of the white shoes, for Young FIenden-
hall with a display of admirable thrift.

work.

RATE INCREASE is
HURTING BUSINESS

Chas. 7. Early. en- route to Portland
after three weeks spent in eastern Ore
gon, declares that the advances in
freight rates will result in a checking
of business.
Business conditions" said Mr..
Early, "are far from satisfactory, and
the freight increase will make them
much worse. Just before leaving Ba-
ker checked over our unified car or
ders, which run into the hundreds dur
ing The course Of several months. Had
they been furnished as ordered we
would have marketed many millions of
feet of lumber now in the pile.
Manufacturing costs OF anything
that am familiar with are increasing
right along. There must be stopping
point somewhere. We must have a
greater efficiency and must produce
more, if we prosper.

RAIN MAKES EVERY
BODY JUBILANT

The steady shower that prevailed
Friday made orchardists, lumbermen
and county officials jubliant. The rain
benefited the apple crop, tending to
increase the size. Gardens were helped.
The heavy showers, lumbermen say,
will 90 far toward nsuring against any
forest fires this year, and county offici-
ais say that the downpour resulted in
much better roads.
With the smoke washed from the
atmosphere and the deep dust Of noun
tain roads settled, conditions for mo-
tOring over the week end were ideal.

with sediment at the appointed angling
place. 1t was supposed that the flood
waters of the recent rains were just
reaching the point.
The anglers tried in VAIN to catch
trout and soon decided to return home.
After motoring down stream about
two miles they again noticed that the
river was clear. They stopped and
fished during the afternoon, catching a
large number of fine trout. The men

so short distance mystifies them.

Trout hogs, according to discoveries
of members Of the Game Association,
have been at work on the upper forks
of Hood river. Fishermen, it is de-
clared, have been operating this sum-
mer without regard to legal size or
limit of catch. Unless the spOrtsmen's
league can secure a spirit of cOopera-
tion among fishermen, a petition for
the closing of the forks for at least
two years will be presented to the
State Fish and Game Commission.

While it is not infrequent that some
mischievous silver gray squirrel is get
ting into an amusing predicament here,
as the animals are protected and have
become numerous in the residence sec
tion, it Is rare that one plays prank
insthe business district. But. Monday
a young silver gray in his early morn
ing wanderings reached the heart of
the business district, where he became
badly confused. Ii would be difficult
to decide whether the squirrel was
more upset by the close rattle Of early
vehicles or the sights he saw in show
windows with mirrored backs.
The squirrel. seeing an approaching

his busy tail and offered fight. He re

I smiled with tears in my eyes. I
would never forget hew Neal had stood
by me this spring. 1t had made me very
happy. But as the minutes passed and
Jim didn't come, all happiness went from
me- 1t was long after ten when my hus-
band returned. The very first words he
said were these:s
Where's that selfish young cub ?
Couldn't he stay home with his sister
one evening""
Il sent him out. Jim said colorless-
", waiting for Jim to come and tilt up
my chin for his kiss.
But Jim dropped into chair near the
door.
I'm dead tired" he said.
Then 1 took refuge in cold sarcasm:
"Oh, indeed You weren't too tired to
run around town with your sister. SO l

water supply should be obtained first
by pre-emptying the water shed Of
White river as far, at least, as Mobiles
vile and secondly by the construction of
a lake in close proximity to the city.
These two factors would go long
way toward supplying Indianapolis at
sill times with the needed water and In
addition would provide wonderful spots
for recreation and water sports, he con-
tends.
Because this lake undoubtedly would
be patrelled by a life guard, bathers
would be assured considerable protec-
ton from accidents that annually claim
a large toll. according to Mr.. Lieber.
CITY WOULD HAVE
FIRE PROTECTION.
Mr. Lieber points out that the effects
of such lake would be astonishing in
many respects on our municipal life.
For instance, in case of a conhagration
the city would be assured of an ample
water supply to fight it.
AS a recreational enthusiastically
necessary when indianapolis has double
its present populatiOn-it would be I'M
surpassed for providing essential breath
ing space. he points out.
"Such a lake properly stocked with fish
could be made a mecca for anglers"
Mr.. Lieber said.
''Bathers, canoe enthusiasts and, in
fact, lovers Of all forms of aquatic sports
would welcome and undoubtedly appre-
ciate II.
Again, atmospheric conditions fire.
quentIy are improved to a great extent
by q large body of water. and the Sec
ton fortunate in having a large lake ex-
periences none OF the torrid heat often
found in congested and thlckly popu-
lated centers.
But most important of all would be
the assurance of an ever ready supply Of
water for all municipal uses"

GRAVE DANGER
IN NEGLECT OF
STATE FORESTS
indianapolis of Future Must
Face Problem of Water
Supply.
BIG RESERVOIR URGED

Because Indiana has been prodigal
with her once great forests until today
there Is a wholly inadequate supply Of
timber, and because this lack of forest
tracts Is a direct cause OF soil erosion
resulting in vast land areas falling to
retain the desired moisture with result
ant lowering of water levels, a problem
for future solution will be an adequate
water supply, In the opinion of Richard
Lieber, director Of the state department
Of conservation.
The department stands for legislation
that win underwrite this perplexity con-
fronting future generations.
Indianapolis is destined to face seri
Gus water shortage in the not distant
future, Mr.. Lieber declared, and immedi-
ate steps should be taken TO meet the
increased demand OF the future, he ar
cues.
GROWTH OF CITY
DEPENDS ON WATER.
I'VE have not given much attention to
our water supply, and get, If this supply
remains only stationary, let alone that 1t
should be decreased, the growth of In
di4napolis will be Immediately stopped
and life therein will become unbear-
able.
Water is the basis of life. 1t is one
OF the most wonderful resources OF our
state but neither city nor county has
properly valued it.
THE water table all over the state is
fast receding; Anticipated and n1-consid-
cred drainage schemes are lessening the
quantity of this invaluable resource daily.
'As q matter Of self-preservation, In
dianapolis should take Immediate steps
to safeguard it's future water supply
Such is true throughout Indiana, for the
water supply of tue future is of state
interest and welfare"
