Snow Insurance Would Be Popular

1t is likely that some enterprising
insurance company will devise new
form of policy to include reimburse.
ment for damage from collapse due to
weight of snow. Those who have OBJ
served the feeling of citizens here the
past few days declare that such a
scheme, if it really materializes, will
be launched at a psychological mo-
ment. Indeed, Monday citizens were
calling on insurance agents asking if
property could be so insured.
Present insurance policies on resi-
dences and business property do rot
carry such indemnity. Citizens not
strenuously inclined faced the task of
welding snowshovels reluctantly, yet
in many instances where fiat roofs
had begun to creak with the weight of
snow, there seemed no alternative.
Men were paid 81 an hour for shovel
ing snow, and no extra hands were
available.

PRUNING SCHOOL
TO BE HELD SOON
BY Gordon q. Brown

December 5-8 inclusive, pruning
school will be conducted in the Hood
River valley. The purpose for which
this course is offered is to familarize
the grower with the fundamental un-
derlying this practice. 1t is not hoped
to turn out expert pruners from anna
teur stock in two or three days train
ing, but it is reasonable to expect that
anyone taking this course will become
proficient in handling the problems as
they arise in the average orchard.
Two district schools will be conduct
ed, one at Parkdale during Monday and
Tuesday, December and inclusive.
The remaining two days will be spent
in the Lower Valley with the city of
Hood River as headquarters.
A one-half day indoor session will be
held in the McIsaac hall during the
morning OF December 5. The remain
der of the time in that section will be
spent in the orchard. The indoor ses-
sion in the Lower Valley, will be held
in Library hall of Hood River, in the
morning of December z. The remain
ing one and one-half days will likewise
be spent in the East Side and West
Side orchards.
The writer especially desires to i'm
press upon those who contemplate TAX
ing this course, the Importance of at
tending the indoor sessions. There all
preliminary discussion of fundamentals
will be carried on and will not be re-
peated in the field. This is important.
Be there and make the most Of this op-
portunity. Field work will be a prac-
tical application Of pruning. The work
will be Immediately in charge of Clay
ton l.. Long, extension specialist of the
Oregon Agricultural College, assisted
by members of the local Experiment
Station staff.
This is the second pruning school to
be held locally. In 1917 very sue
cessful school was held and attended
by large number of growers. This
year the enrolment will undoubtedly
be large. Any one is eligible for this
course and no charges will be made.
Watch the date and be on hand.

UPPER VALLEY SPUD
CROP is SHORT

The Upper Valley potato crop will
not be affected by the heavy snowfall
that covers the district, according to
j. F. Thompson, who was here Satur-
day. other than that the weather condi-
tions. if they linger. will prevent
movement of the crop.
practically all of the districts po-
tatoes were dug" says Mr.. Thomp-
son, but not more than 10 per cent
had been sold and shipped. Growers
have stored their potatoes in pits. The
Upper Valley potato yield was very
disappointing this year. We expected
100 cars. We will not get over go.
The quality, however. is very high,
and all growers are expecting top
prices for their tubers.

The moment this sulphur prepa-

- Members of the executive COM
mittee Of the Chamber OF Com

on record as opposed to increasing
the wages of policemen or fr"men
and any increase in the salaries of
employees in any city department
during 1921. A committee was ap-
pointed to confer with the city COM
,nissioncrs when they are consider
ing the municipal budget Cor 1921,
at theif meeting Wednesday.
Reports to the committee on mu-
nieipal affairs discussed by the ex-
ecutive committee showed that the
proposed increase OF pol;cernen's
wages would mean AN outlay of
100000 to the city during the COM
ing year.
The members declared their srand
was based on the fact that the pres
ent is an inopportune time to raise
wages as retrenchment is under way
in nearly all business lines and the
cost of living is being lowered and
would continue to fall for some
time.
Mayor Smith has proposed to the
city council yesterday that the pay
of policemen and firemen during
1921 shall be on the same basis as
