LOST LAKE GOES
TO CONGRESS- HALLS

An enlarged photograph of Lost
Lake, with its background of Mount
Hoods snowclad peak. one of the most
appealing scenes of midi Columbia Cas-
cade scenery, will soon grace the walls
of the office of the congressional Com
mittee on Public lands, of which Rep
resentative Sinnott is chairman. The
picture, the work of Fred w. Donner-
berg, was forwarded to Washington
Tuesday. 1t is the gift of the First
National Bank and Butler Banking Co.
The dispatch of the picture resulted
recently from letter from Mr.. Sin
mott to Truman Butler. Mr.. Sinnott
stated that he had been very much inn
pressed with pictures made by Mr..
Donnerberg of the Legion's climb of
Mount Hood last summer. He sug-
gested that some typical photograph of
local scenery should be added to the
collection of the land committee.

which was expected to be heard before

MIR. Morton, who alleges that an
acreage of valuable land was ruined,
asks Sl3, 900 damages. He also claims
that the cutting Of the grade damaged
springs, utilized for irrigating his
farm. The place in question is held

APPLE MARKET is
NOW AT LOW EBB

Local shippers think the apple mar.
ket has reached the bottom. Although
the entire deal this year has been char
acteriZed by inactivity on the part of
buyers, this week shippers with fruit
rolling unsold have been unable to get
lobbers to take hold except at prices
far below the regular quotations.
The maximum price for the best red
varieties the past week has been 81 .85
for extra fancy stock, and most of cars
sold have been closer to $l.50. Central
distributing points, it is said, are
fairly glutted. Sidings are filled with
cars of unsold apples.

Clark. "a good heavy freeze, which

c. w. McCullagh says he does not
anticipate any great betterment of the
apple market until about February |.
Then, he declares, the market will
show a reaction, and he believes that
the Hood River Valley Newtowns will
net local growers good profit. The
Newtowns, long keepers, have been
rolled out to eastern storage or have
been held in storage plants here.
Although the apple crop of the
northwest has been of record proper
tions, the early harvest and eagerness
of shippers to roll their product has
resulted in heavier shipments than in
any former year. Total shipments up
to Saturday night had reached 1889
cars, an approximate half of the val
ley's tonnage, according to Agent
Fredricy.
The Apple Growers Association up to
Saturday night had received from
growers 1,092, l66 boxes, and Of this
number 628, 800 boxes had been shipped.

Southern States, which now supply
the larger part Of the lumber Vermont
uses, will be unable to do more than
fill their own needs. After that our
industries must depend upon wood
from Washington. Oregon, and Cali
fomia, which contain full half Of all
our remaining timber.
Four-fifths Of the standing timber
IN America is in private hands. 1t is
being destroyed as rapidly as ever;
and concentration of ownership keeps
pace with forest destruction. Half Of
the privately owned timber is held by

nearly half the privately owned stand
