The brilliant autumn coloring of the
surrounding hills and goreeaides has
been the inspiration of guests journey
tng to Homer A. Kogers' Mount flood
Lodge the past week. The frosts have
painted the maple bushes a vivid red,
with here and there, where the leaves
are unexposed to the sun's rays, a
putch of old. The thousands of dog
wood trees have taken on a coat of
vivid purple and faming scarlet.

Dredge Injures Phone Cable
A crew of men was kept busy last
week repairing a damaged cable of the
Pacific Telephone & Telegraph Co.,
crossing the Columbia river to White
Salmon from this point, the covering
of the cable having been ground to
pieces by a dredge operating near the
Oregon shore of the river for The
Dalles, Portland & Astoria Navigation
Co. Five strands of wire were broken,
but fortunately the dredge crew dis
covered thecable in time to prevent its
being broken.

Just Little Stories
All have heard of the man who ate so
many bedim that he became sick. He
ate them becau.se he didnt' want them
wasted. The folluwing is a story of
cumulative waste.
A husband, eating a salad that his
wife had prepared, grumbled and found
fault with the oil in the dressing.
"Why do you eat it, then." his wife
asked.
"Oh well," he replied, "I might as
well. If I didn't you would give it to
the hogs, and our winter incut would be
spoiled."

! With many the small farm of 10 and
1 20 acres has proven a failure. Not so
j with Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Gould, who
'own and till on of the best kept 17
i acre places in the Hood Kiver valley
And this is so despite the fact tha
I they were formerly farmers of a sec
i Don of wheat land in Grsnd Forks
county. North Dakota.
Mr. and Mrs. Gould are partners,
working partners. Mrs. Gould doas
nut merely assist her husband with
well meant and beneficial advice, but
she works side by side with him. It is
apple harvest now, and she a been
spending portions of everydiy helping
her husband harvest the apple crop,
"We try to get along without hiring
any help," says Mrs. Gould, "and I
think we will be able to do so this sea
son. We will have about 600 boxes of
apples."
Mr. and Mrs. Gould's crop, because
of their personal care, will run about
75 per cent extra fancy, five per cent
C grade and the rest fancy, while the
average northwestern crop will be but
25 per cent extra fancy, 40 per cent
fancy and 35 per cent C grade.
Mr. and Mrs. Gould are the best of
orchardists, but they are more than
that, and in this one may rind the
secret of their success. Their little
ranch is complete in every respect.
dozen fine hogs may be seen grazing in
a clover patch. A contented cow
chewing her cud beneath the shade of
an enormous pine tree shows the source
of their milk and butter. They have
ducks and chickens. Their vegetable
gardens produce a surplus to be dis
tnbuted among neighbors. They prac
tice intensive diversified farming.
All of this 17 acre ranch is not in ap
pie trees, vegetable gardens or corn
An acre at least lies on a steep'canyon
side, a portion of the gorge of the
Hood river. This very feature, how
ever, caused the present owners to
buy. Toward the head of a small
gorge entering the larger canyon was
a big spring. The waters of the spring
piped down to a Pelton wheel furnish
light and power for the ranch. 'Ihe
wheel is controlled from the house, 100
feet away. When one wants light a
little chain is pulled, the valve of the
power system is opened and the Mazda
bulbs become brilliant. Mr. Gould is
not worried over power companies'
schedule of rates. He has electric
iehts in his barn and over his grounds.
When the nights have become long he
even milks the family cow by the.Iight
or electricity.
Ihe spring, too, furnishes water for
the house. The cold mountain stream
is piped to both house and barn.
At one corner of his place Mr. Gould
has dug a 50x20 foot swimming pool.
We built it tor our own children,
says Mr. Gould, hut it has become
a popular place with all the neighbor
hood during the summer months.
Scores of children and many adults
have gathered there on one afternoon."
The water runs constantly tnrough the
pool.
The most unique feature of the Gould
country place is the home. It is unique
in construction and was built in rather
an unusual manner. Kxcept for the
fire place and some of the plumbing,
Mr. and Mrs. bourn and a hired man
did all the work themselves. Ihe
house is constructed of veneered logs,
set upright, for the first stery, and
shingles for the second. The logs, se
cured from small fir trees, are all the
same size. "It was necessary to search
over 200 acres of timberland to get
these, says Mrs. Gould.
A summer dining room sets back
overhanging the river gorge. One gets
glimpses of.the dashing, silvery waters
themselves, and far out over the gorge
in orderly array are the orchards of
the West Side.
Mr. and Mrs. Gould removed from
their Dakota grain farmto Portland 14
years ago. They removed .to Hood
Kiver seven years ago.
"The city is no place for childen,"
says Mrs. Gould, the mother of five.
"In town they learn the superficial
things of life. They soon feel too
much the need of artificial entertain
ment. In the country they become im
bued with the real things of life.
Last winter Curtis, the 15 year old
son of Mr. and Mrs. Gould, expressed a
desire to go to the Panama-Pacific ex
position. His parents did not refuse
him, but told him that, the money for
the trip must first bo earned. The lad
began on the first tide of strawberry
harvest and by the time'all the berries
were picked he had made enough
money for the expenses of the trip. He
visited the fair alone in July.
While pine trees once covered a great
portion of the apple district of the
West Side of the Hood Kiver valley,
they have given way to lumbermen or
to make a place for a fruit tree. "We
have saved as many of our trees as
possible," says Mrs. Gould, "and 1
think many now regret cutting down
those great monsters." Some of the
finest pines left in the valley rear
themselves above the Gould home.
And if one is in search for a recipe for
happy, contented living, he or she
should visit Homewood, and see the
Goulds on a late afternoon, the day's
work done, looking proudly from be
neath their giant pines at the activities
of their little estate.
When Baby Has the Croup
When a mother is awakened from
sound sleep to find her child who has
gone to bed apparently in the best of
health struggling for breath, she is nat
urally alarmed. Yet il she can keep her
presence of mind and give Chamber
lain's Cough Kemedy every ten minutes
until vomiting is produced, quick releif
will follow and the child will drop to
sleep to awaken in the morning as well
aB ever. This remedy has been in me
for many years with uniform success.

WONDERFUL JOURNEY
ALONG THE DESCHUTES!
(By Rev. G. W. Kennedy) I
Wild Deschutes, dashing down from
Mount Jefferson and the twin Sisters
through this awful rift inthe eirth
opened by the titanic forces, that a
great river with its tributaries might
flow out to the sea, forming the con
tour of tha lands, and showing the
economy of nature! Oregon' a wildest
river 1
Tbis crack in the earth has been the
travelers' terror! An emigrant train
was mislead in 1845; turned from the
old road up the Malheur across Harney
and after almost perishing they turned
northward and endeavored to get back
to the emigrant road again. They
made many attempta to cross De-
scnutes, found an approach down a
tributary canyon and crossed in wagon
boxes where Shearer's bridge was
finally built.
That was the "lost train" adventure:
and the crossing became a permanent
trail. The bridge was built, and the
old "Military Koad" made it a perma
nent highway. From this place, just
over among the hills on the east side.
was fought the first bsttle with the In
dians in Oregon. The volunteer troops
were sent out to chastise the murderers
of De Whitman. In January. 1848,
Major Lee was leading the vanguard of
the forces. He found a large band of
hostiles up here among the canyons of
Deschutes. Lee's forces were largely
outnumbered. They iled into this can
yon, hiding in the bushes. The Indians
rolled stones down from the mountains
upon them, but the soldiers slipped out
in the darkness of night and went for
reinforcements.
The Deschutes is a veritable canal
for commerce. It is the gateway for
one-third the territory of Oregon, down
waterways to the sea. Southeastern
Oregon seemed like a foreign country.
Strange we have been so long in seeing
how, as everywhere, tha rivers lead
the way.
1 wo lines ol railroad traverse De
schutes canoyn. And that presents a
view most remakable. Where else in
the world is there a duplicate? These
lines fought each other in the courts
and out. Hut they have settled down
to be very close neighbors and to live
in peace. For 150 miles along that
river, their grades are the same, their
curves and anglea the same. Never
more than a hundred yards apart. At
Ox-bow bend the "Hill line'' bridges
across from the west side and the two
tunnel that abrupt peninsula within 200
feet of each other: then another bridge
and the crossing back to the west side.
Fifty miles up, the river runs in a
crack in the rock bed for near a mile,
in width not over 40 feet. The roar
and dash of those waters is worth much
travel to see. At Maupin, 70 miles up
the river, there is the coming town of
commerce. It hasn t a rival. It has
the only possible approaches to the
river, from both east and west. All
the vast wheat belt of southern Wasco
county is tributary to it. 1 was sur
prised at everything I saw there. Two
large warehouses, one on each side the
iver, a steel bridge spanning the river
practically bringing the two together
and within the town site. In one of
these shipping places there are over
two hundred thousand bushels of wheat
awaiting shipment.
lhat farming country has the best
soil in . the world. Sedimentary base.
with a volcanic ash covering. Maupin
grand in situation: on a shelving
plateau with a basalt mountain back
ground. Out of that mountain bursts
stream of water Mowing through the
town, sufficient water for 10,000 popu-
ation. There is 180 horse power.
Wherever it is employed to irrigate
gardens it makes a veritable Eden.
Here I found two large stores, fine
school building, church and other mod
ern improvements.
From Maupin last vear there were
shipped 175,000 bushels of wheat, 50
carloads cattle, 50 cars hogs, and a
very large amount of wool. Here must
be the city of destiny for central Ore
gon. Here I found my old friends, Mr.
and Mrs. W. H. Statts. Ihe old moun
taineer, Maupin, gave name to this
place.
