APPLE ESTIMATES
ARE AGAIN CUT

A further reduction in the prospects
for an apple crop has been made since
the June report Of the Bureau Of Crop
Estimates, the July report of the Bu-
reau estimating the total production
for the United States at l02, 1870, 900
bushels as compared with final crop
in 1920 of 240, ,442, 600 bushels. The
commercial crop is estimated at IT,
666, 600 barrels in contrast with &c.
272, 900 bushels last year and 26, ia, 900
barrels in 1919.
The Pacific Coast and Northwest
states along with few of the New
England states promise a heavier yield
Of apples than last year whereas all
the middle western and Ohio valley
states will have a much lighter crop.
Washington promises to lead the states
this year with July estimate of s.
l63 600 barrels of commercial apples.
Last year New York was the heaviest
producer with final estimate on the
commercial crop at 9.275, 600 barrels.
Missouri will only have about a tenth
as MANY apples as in 1920 and several
other states in the Mississippi valley
will not fare much better. Virginia
which produced 1855, 600 barrels of
commercial apples last year has a fore
cast for crop of 255. 600 barrels.

EAST FORK DISTRICT
WINS HIGH PRAISE

II. A. Wentworth, here last week to
gather data on local irrigation districts
for the United States Department of
Agriculture, says that the East Fork
Irrigation district, covering the East
Side Of the Hood River valley, is one
of the most completely recorded on the
Pacific Coast. Mr.. Wentworth, who
states that the federal government is
canvassing all western states, securing
first hand information on legal proceed
sse leadinV up To the formation of ir-
'figation districts and methods Of their
operation subsequently.
1.-THE Oregon laws, believe" said
Mr.. Wentworth, "are the best in the
country. And | was able to get more
data on the East Fork district here in
an hours talk with the secretary, Geo.
r. Wilbur. than gained in a weeks
investigation of some districts. The
facts of the local district are all down
in orderly fashion, and when | asked
question the secretary merely had to
turn to his records. The Department
Of Agriculture is seeking this data in
an endeavor to standardize water
legislation in all Of the arid states. and
thus placing itself in position to aid in
land reclamation.

BINGEN VEGETABLES
Sell. HIGH HERE


The ruin of lowiand gardens BY the
recent Columbia freshet has resulted
in high prices for vegetables here.
The lowland truck gardeners for the
past five years have not only supplied
the local market but have shipped
out vegetables in ton quantities. The
community had grown to depend on the
production Of the fertile bottom lands.
This year most of the vegetables sold
by local grocers are shipped in.
Local consumers have interested
themselves the past few days in trac-
ing shipments of vegetables grown by
Japanese truck gardeners of Bingen,
Just across the Columbia and in sight
of the town. The produce is sold to a
Portland broker. who sells to commits
sion men here. The latter sells to the
Hood River Produce Exchange, who
distributes it to the grOcers. The pro-
cess results in expensive vegetables
for Hood River tables.

world war service, will have charge of
purchasing supplies for the mountain
climbing party. The two men
were exceedingly popular with their
comrades, a large number Of whom
will participate in a reunion on the
recreation.
The increasing popularity of Mount
Hood and its availability as the result
of better roads resulted short time
ago in members of the local Legion
Post considering an ascent. As the
proposals were discussed, they grew
ambitious and elaborate. and finally
the Hood River Post decided to make
the annual ascent of Mount Hood a
feature in national circles of the or
ganization of ex-service men. While
the short notice of this year will limit
the initial climb to OregOnians chiefly,
DR.. j. w. Sifton. who will represent
the local Post at the national conven.
tion, will tell of next years proposed
mountain climb. Letters and printed
matter on the event have gone forward
to all posts, and it is expected that
eventually the annual American Legion
ascent of Mount Hood will attract
great attention.
1.-The excursion of this year. how
ever, " Commander Edward w. Van
Horn says, will be far in excess of
our expectations a week ago. Press
announcements of our plans have re-
suited in scores of inquiries pouring in
from all parts of the state, 1t looks
as though we will have a hundred OF
more Legion men and their families
! from other parts of the state. Port
| land will probably furnish the heaviest
outside list of recreationists. The plar
has been received generally with en-
| thusiasm.
Kent Shoemaker, chairman of the
committee in charge of arranging foi
the mountain climb, last Friday re-
cived telegram from Governor Olcott
who expressed his desire of climbing
Hood with the ex-soldiers. Other
members of the ascent committee are
Edward w. Van Horn, Harold Hersh,
ner. Robert l.. Foust and Geo. K. Will
| bur.
The trip to a camp, which will be es
| tablished near Cooper Spur, will be
made party by automobile and partly
by hiking. Cars will leave the city al
p. m. Saturday,, July 30. From the
homestea place of j. o. Hannum, the
| hike into the mountain meadow camL
will cover a mile and a half. Wal
ter b. Davidson, eX-army pack ser
geant and said to be one of the best

first occasion on which a musical or

Mr.. Rogers says that Hood River
folk know too little of the mountain.
one of their greatest assets. He de-
clares that at present. because so few
local people really know the mountain,
that it is difficult for transient motor
lists to secure reliable information at
local places of business. Following

ers plans on sending weekly bulletins

eau of the 80 per cent grade on the

COUNTY INSPECTOR
FINDS FIRE BLIGHT

County Fruit Inspector Armstrong
has discovered fire blight, one Of the
most deadly diseases attacking fruit
trees, in Upper Valley orchards. 1t is
believed the dread pest has been
brought in by birds or high winds from
eastern forests The disease has been
advancing for several years from east
ern parts of the state. The blight af-
fects natl, e shrubs and its eradication
is thus made difficult.
Mr.. Armstrong says the Upper Val
lev discovery is nothing to alarm grow
ers if they will Immediately get busy
and cut out the affected portions OF
trees. Fire blight, if handled by the
cooperative efforts Of all growers OF
districts can be eradicated quickly.

HEFLIN CHAMPIONS
 FREE MAIL SERVICE

Washington, February l0.-(Speclal.)-- Senator Heflin, who is a member of the committee on postoffices and postroads. has begun a movement on the part os the postoffice department to establish village mail delivery in towns eligible for this service throughout the state Of Alabama, where it is indicated that the town authorities and the people desire this branch of the service.
 In some instances, it appears that some of the towns where village delivery has already been established has incrased in receipts and population to such an ex- tent that a better delivery service is authorized, and in these instances the senator has requested investigations to be made and report to him the result of the inquiry. Since he began this move ment the department has acted favorably upon some of the towns with large number pending the receipt of the re- port of the department from the field in vestigation officers, and the reply to let ters written by the senator to the author- ities in the towns.
 The regulation requires that the streets be named and the houses numbered and sidewalks in good condition.

Senator Smith Declares When Real Facts Known World Will Be AStounded at
 Tremendous Shortage
By HUGH w. ROBERTS Washington Bureau The Age-Herald
 800 Davidson Building

Washington, February 1O.-(Speciai)- The government. which maintains that there is certain large amount of cot ton in the south does the south a grave injustice in depressing the price of the staple, in the opinion of Senator Smith of South Carolina, an agricultural expert of Congress.
 In order that the facts might be devel- oped, Senator Smith this afternoon intro> duced a resolution requiring the agricul- tural committee of the Senate to con- duct a thorough inquiry into the situa- tion. As result, the actual available sup ply will be ascertained.
 Senator Smith believes the department estimates unjustifably large He holds that when the truth is developed the world will be astonished that it's avail able supply of cotton is so greatly re- duced from government figures, and that the price of the staple will be immedi- ately increased
 The resolution, which authorizes an in- vestigation not only as to the amount and grades of cotton, but of wheat also, will prevail, 1t is indicated.
