new HARDIE TO
BE SHOWN HERE

Another high-powered, large capac-
ity sprayer- the Hardie Big Four
will make its bow to the Hood River
orchardist on Saturday of this week
when demonstration will be given bv
Bennett Brothers at their place of
business on Cascade avenue.
The new machine has four-cylinder
pump and four-cylinder engine of the
automobile type. 1t has capacity
ranging from 20 to 25 gallons a minute
and is said to be the lightest big
sprayer on the market, its weight
being only 2450 pounds.
One feature of the machine, aside
from its light weight, which is attract
ing favorable comment is its compact
ness, the pump and engine being set
side by side, permitting the equipment
to be mounted on an allsteel, under
slung truck similar to the Hillside
truck heretofore manufactured by the
Hardie company.
A l0-horsepower Universal engine,
with Bosch magnetic ignition, is used.
The pump has four cylinders, three
inches in diameter. The pressure is
between 300 and 400 pounds,
as desired. by means of the Hardie
Peerless regulator. BY means of this
device the pressure in the airchamber
is maintained when the discharge lines
are cut oil and the pressure on the
pump itself is released, thus keeping
a constant pressure ready for the
operator, but allowing the engine TO
run practically idle. thus effecting a
considerable saving in gasoline.

HUELAT TELLS OF
RETAIL CONVENTION

"The biggest thing initiated by the
Oregon Retail Dealers Association in
session last week at Marshield," says
c. o. Huelat. local director of the or
ganization, who has just returned from
the junket to the southwestern part of
the state, twas the campaign to intro
duce prune bread. Pretty soon this
delicious bread will be available to
every housekeeper.
Mr.. Huelat says that a feeling of
optimism over the business conditions
of the state prevail among the retail
ers who think that the bottom has
been reached and that affairs are again
on the upgrade. He says the cooper
alton between the economics depart
ment of the University of Oregon and
the retailer association will result in
great benefits. Mr.. Huelat says that
some excellent talks on salesmanship
were given, but it was emphasized that
the retail salesman, he says, must
learn how to sell his own town to him
self before he can be truly successful.
Zone of the big talks of the ses-
sion," says MIR. Huelat, was given
by President McGarvey, of the Wash
ington State Retailers Association,
who pointed out that the organizations
were doing many things of benefit to
the statesias a whole. Our own organ
izati0n here has been active along such
lines, probably as much so as any in
the Northwest. The annual session
next year will be held at Roseburg
The hospitality of the folk of Marsh
field will never be forgotten by us.

ONTHANK ASSESSES
JAIL SENTENCES

Determined to break up bootlegging
and the illicit manufacture of liquor in
this county, Justice of the Peace On
thank, cooperating with District At
torney Baker says that all violators of
the prohibition laws who face him will
be given Jail terms. Judge Onthank
initiated his campaign last week by
jaiing Mrs. II. A. McGinnis, mother
Of two daughters of school age and
several married children, for 30 days.
A fine of $l0O was also assessed against
Mrs. McGinnis. Bert Hopkins, who
was caught in a raid on the McGinnis
home. was given 80 days in jail and a
hundred dollar fine.
On Monday Justice Onthank placed
Mrs. McGinnins on parole in consider
alton of the family removing from the
county. She paid her fine. A war
rant last week was issued for Mrs.
Geo. McGinnis. but she had fled to
parts unknown before the officers could
apprehend her.

THE HAYES SPRAYER
BEING DEMONSTRATED

A. E. Hall, factory representative
of the Hayes Sprayer Co., has been
here the past week from Galva. ILL.,, f,
demonstrating the machine at the gar
age Of Slutz Bros. He states that he
finds growers expressing keen inter-
est in the Hayes because of its econ
omy and efficiency.
IA grower" says Mr.. Hall, "gets
more for his investment out of Hayes
Sprayer than any other make on the
market. 1t is high class product
throughout, and we are the only COM
pany that guarantees a constant 300
pound pressure. The Hayes is equipped
with the Fairbanks, Z-type engine and
a Bosch magnetic. A guaranty from
our factory and the Fairbanks people
goes with every sprayer. The Hayes
is by no means a new rig, although it
has not been sold recently in Hood
River. In 1918 F. H. Kingdom bought
a Hayes. He told us the other day
that his total expense during all this
time was $l.60. That speaks pretty
well, don't you think?
'The Hayes spray rig is simple in
design. 1t is so simple that it is al
most foolproof. We believe that grow
ers are going to give it closer scrut-
my as they learn of its simplicity, eff
cheney and economy"

II. f. Davidson, the box apple man,
returned from Europe on the steamship
"Lapland," which docked Monday.
Mr.. Davidson went across late in De-
cember. In speaking of the situation
over there, he said:

England than they are here and they
talk more about hard times than we
do. The labor situation is bad. tried

locate Fred w. Durbin. Mr.. Murray
last week found an automobile parked

Iananese Present School Problem

In some Of the schools Of the rural
districts the increase of japanese pu-
pills, according TO reports of teachers,
has presented a problem. The teachers
find their chief difficulties from the
japanese arising from the fact that
they enter classes with children usu-
ally far younger than themselves.
Teachers find that much time is con-
sumed in getting the japanese started.
The problem Of educating the Japan
ese locally, it is stated, is much re-
lieved, since most Of the japanese
families send the youngsters back TO
Nippon as soon as they reach school
age

THE JAPANESE QUESTION

Senator McNary's telegram has un'
doubtedly had deterrent effect down
at Salem with regard to the Japanese
bill. His request that Oregon keer
hands off, in order that the Harding
admins tration may be allowed tc
handle the Japanese situation without
embarrassment, would, we believe, be
needed by every one, if the citizens of
Oregon directly effected by an increase
in Japanese felt an assurance that the
administration would take up the mat
ter and pursue it to a satisfactory con-
clusion. Ultimately the national gov
ernment must act, but as California
has learned, the federal government is
slow to act. Federal action is stimu-
lated by these sectional irritations.
1t appears that President-elect Hard
ing has really sensed the Japanese
question. In a prediction address to
a delegation of Californians last fall
he expressed the opinion that the
racial difference between the two
peoples was such that friction would
become more and more emphasized as
larger groups of them came in direct
contact with each other as residents of
a single country. Senator Harding ex
pressed the whole Japanese problem
when he pointed out this impossibility
of assimilation into American life of
raclaIly different aliens.
A great many Oregonians want the
land law adopted at once
without reservations. Why can the
legislature not compromise by adopting
It with the provision that it be referred
20 the people. Then, if the national
finds it impossible to
act on the measure with dispatch. Ore
ron can proceed to put the law into
,ffect by a popular vote. With anti
Ilien land laws already in effect in
california, Washington and other COM
we cannot see how the
doption of such a law in Oregon is
'oing to add materially to any embar-
assment the national administration
will feel from such legislation.

The prune has long been the butt of
too many ridiculous jokes about the
boarding house. When one has wished
to express contempt for fellow being
he has referred to him as a prune.
Now consider the peach. The swain
has complimented her of whom he was
enamored by calling her a peach. And
the peach has gained new lustre IN the
eyes of the public. The prune has
been maligned. 1t is fruit of honest
value. The prune supplies such miner
ais as iron, lime and phosphorus. in
which many of our foods are deficient.
And if you believe the prune lacks
taste, just try some of the Mistland
recipes. Many prune dishes are de-
lectable.

744 in the past 10 years. Land under
cultivation has increased 37.7 per cent.
The report of agricultural activities in
the county, shows a value decrease
in the past 10 years. The decline,
however, has been beneficial. In 1910
the orchard boom was on here and
prices were inflated. Today orchard
land prices, good bearing tracts selling
