"What In the proper tlma for a man to
retire from bunlnean?"
Thia waa tho queatlon propounded by the
New York Tlmea to John C. Stubba. vlca
president and director of traffic of the
l,OW mile which comprlnes the Harriman
ay it em. Mr. Btubba hag created widespread
dlscuaalon all over the United Sttatea by
the announcement made a day or two ago,
that when he attalna the ane of 65 years.
In May of next year, he propones to lay
aid the carea of business life and devote
his remaining' years to peaceful recreation
on hi country estate and to foreign travel.
Moreover, Mr. Btubba punctuates this
declaration by atatlnf aa his fixed belief
that every man who attains the age of
66 should be retired, whether he ao
desire or not. In order to make room for
younger men. Mr. Stubba, however, quail
fled this declaration in his conversation
with the Times representative today, by
stating that In fixing this age limit he had
done ao on the theory that every man hon
orably retired at 66 should receive a
pension from his former employers.
"Of course," said Stubba, "when I ex
pressed the opinion that no man should
work after he Is 66 years old, I had not
the slightest Intentions of advocating any
system which would deprive men who had
attained that are of their livelihood and
leaving them dependent upon others for
atupport.
"On many of the big railroads a pension
system haa been introduced which makes
retirement compulsory at the age of 70.
I believe an employe should have the op
tion of retiring honorably at 66 and I have
advocated making that the age limit In
the army they fix the age of retirement at
63, and I do not know but that 60 would be
even better than that
Stirred lp Treabln.
"It seems to me," continued Mr. Btubbs,
"that when I made this casual observa
tion as to the age at which a man should
cease to engage In business I unwittingly
stirred up a lot of trouble for myself. I
am deluged with letters, offers to write
magazine articles and not a few protests.
"One of my correspondents writes that
if employers were to discharge their men
upon attaining the age of CO years It would
work a very grievous Injury and In many
cases untold hardship. Quite true, although
I fixed the age aa 65 and not 60.
"Apparently there has been some mis
understanding as to what I actually meant.
Inasmuch as I have no time to write maga
alne articles, perhaps It would be Just as
well to make myself clear on the subject
through the-columns of the New 1 York
Times."
Mr. Btubba settled himself back In his
chair. This man, the associate and fellow
worker of such railroads giants as Collls
P. Huntington and Edward II. Harriman,
has spent almost fifty of his sixty-four
years of life In the -dally grind of the rail
road business.
But he does not look It. He Is a rather
alight ' man of medium height, with
JOHN C. STUBBS.
smooth-shaved face, gray hair and clear,
penetrating gray-blue eyes.
lie Is a man of charming personality
and of artistlo temperament. His office,
overlooking one of the busiest comers of
Chicago, Is a veritable picture gallery In
Its way. On its walls hsng the portraits
of every railroad man of prominence In the
United Btates during the last half century,
those of Messrs. Huntington and Harriman
having the place of honor.
"While I have expressed the opinion, and
still hold to the belief that no man should
be allowed to work after he la 66 years
old," said Mr. Btubbs, "my expressions and
utterances on the subject must be regarded
as applying more particularly to my chosen
profession. The range of my experience
must be considered.
"In my observations on this subject,
which seem to have attracted undue at
tention, I had more especially In mind
railroad workers and the employes of such
Industrial concerns as have adopted a pen
sion system for the benefit of the men
who have worked loyally and faithfully.
There waa also present In my mind the
fact, that In practically all cases In which
a pension system has been evolved, the
retiring age Is fixed at 70 years, at which
age retirement becofes peremptory.
Proper Ace for Retirement,
"After studying the question In all Its
phases, I have come to the conclusion that
at 65 years the officer or employe should
be permitted to retire and receive his pen
sion, or on the other hand that the com
pany or Its employers should retire him
without discrediting him, at that age. In
order .to make room for younger men.
"It was not In my mind, however, to
suggest, or even hint, that all employers
should dispense with employes when the
latter reach the age of sixty-five without
any provision for the future. If ruch a
policy were pursued great hardships would
be worked. They should be honorably re
tired with a pension sufficient to provide
for all reasonable needs.
Of course it Is perfectly true that all
men may not cease their activities at the
age of sixty-five. Nevertheless, It Is my
judgment that they ought to and should
be able to do it, and If so the world
would move much faster toward the
millennium. ' .

do not think he would have retired at
sixty-five by any possible chance.
"He was one of those peculiar men who
never could retire, who have got to work.
and who If they could not work would die
anyway. Nevertheless, Mr. Harriman did
not die from worrying over his vast busi
ness interests.
"Mr. Ilsrriman never worried. He be
lieved In himself aa much as did Napo
leon, lie had a right to believe In him
self. In my judgment, for he did things
and big things at that. Harriman lived
as long as could reasonably be expected.
considering the manner In which he
worked.
'I owe a great deal to my association
with Collls P. Huntington and E. H. Har
riman," said Mr. Stubbs, remlnlscently.
"What wonderful workers were they!
Huntington always was In his office be
fore any of his employes simply a tire
less worker. Harriman too.
ThlnUlna- in Red.
Harriman used to work all day and
think all night. That was what killed
him. He used to think In bed. One of
his most daring schemes he told me was
thought out after he went home one night.
"The Erie railroad was In dlstresa. If It
went Into the hands of a receiver It
meant that the stock market would be
affected disastrously and that the Harri
man securities would necessarily suffer.
"All that night he thought It over, until
6 o'clock in the morning, when he had his
plan matured. He rose at 7 o'clock and
gave Instructions over the telephone.
"When the bank was open -t 10 o'clock
Harriman waa there with the necessary
securities and paid $5,000,000 for the notes
and securities. It was a. daring thing to
do, but he had planned In the night how
he would bring that great property through
the crisis, and he knew that he could not
fall. It can readily be understood that
It would be useless to talk to such a man
about retiring at sixty-five.
"Again some of the most able men this
country has produced have died long be
fore attaining the age of 65. Jay Gould
died at 66, If I remember correctly. Thomas
A. Bcott died at 66 and Devereaux of the
Lake Shore system, a very promising man.
died at 66 or along about those years.
"Retiring at 65 from the particular pur
suit which has engaged his aotlvltlea of a
man all through his working career, does
not. In my judgment,, mean Idleness for
the remainder of his days. It suggests
leisure, opportunity to pursue an avoca
tion, to round out one who has been
warped somewhat by following one Idea
to the exclusion of all other considerations
of Inestimable value to the man himself.

"I am not going to stagnate simply be
cause I am going to relinquish the relna
of office in the Harriman system.All my
life I have been working for the road
that was the deaieat ambition of my life.
' I told Mr. Harriman once that I be
lieved I thought a good deal more of It
than he did, and I meant it I am not
going to stagnate.

Letters from, a Hood River -Apple Grower
HOOD RIVER, Ore., April 23. Dear Jim:
Bo you 'want to know how It happened that
I heeded the now common cry, "Back to
. the farm," and left the desk where I had
been tied for the last ten years. You are
especially Interested in knowing If all the
stories about apple growing In Oregon are
true, and whether or not the literature
sent out by the various commercial clubs,
real estate firms and railroads Is too highly
' colored. You fear that "far oft fields are
green" and want actual facts concerning
the apple business from one who has noth
ing to gain by exaggeration. Well, here Is
my story, and you can rest assured every
statement I make Is true.
Too close confinement In the office was
telling on me, and the doctor advised me
to get Into the open. Farm life doea not
appeal to many women, as the work Is hard
and long and the pleasures and comforts
of the city are lacking, but Gertrude read
ily agreed to make the sacrifice for my
sake, providing we bought- an apple
orchard.
That much decided upon, we began look
ing for a suitable location. Everywhere
.this state, and In Washington, we were
confronted with advertisements telling of
apple lands. "Just aa good as Hood River"
or "only blank miles from Hood River"
or "In Hood River's sister valley," and
- we asked: Where Is this Hood River val
ley, which Is the standard of excellence in
apple growing and by which all other ap
ple districts are measured, and what Is
giving this valley the high distinction It
now enjoys T
So one Sunday we dressed the kiddles In
their best and took the east-bound Oregon
Railroad and Navigation train out of Port
land and after a run of two hours along
the south bank of the Columbia river
reached th little town of 'Hood River.
There waa nothing extraordinary about
the burg, which varioua advertisements
said had a population of 6.000, but Which the
census man put rtown at nearly S 000. Here
we aaw Indians In their gaily colored blan
kets wheeling their papooses In up-to-date
go-carts. It was berry picking time and
the Indiana were helping harvest the crop,
a they do every year. There were the
usual country hotels no better and no
worse than one meets with in every wes
tern town two main business streets where
all lines of business were represented, and
some beautiful new buildings In course of
erection, notab'y the one now occupied by
the First National bank, a very reliable in
stltutloo. Beyond and up the hillside were
scattered houses, but where, oh. where
were those famous v orchard. We were
disappointed, but our real estate agent,
who waa to pilot us around, assured us

v wo iook neart again.
And right here, In passing. It may not be
amiss to say a, word about the Irrepressi
ble, Irrealstabfe real estate agent. No
doubt he. is built along the same lines,
whether under sunny southern skies, away
back cast, or here on the Pacific coast,
and It should not be necessary to warn you
against him, yet let me say to you, beware!
He will spot you the moment you get off
the train, follow you to. your hotel, listen
to and Interrupt any conversation you may
be carrying on In the hotel lobby, and
finally follow you into the dining room
and seat himself at your table. He will
use gentle persuasion, hold out promises
or big returns and when all other arts
known to this class of men fall, he will
try to bulldoxe you. So, I say, beware
of the man who tries to sell you apple
land, not for Its real worth for growing
apples, but aa a speculation; who states
In his advertisements that values will
double In two or three years, and assures
you confidentially that yau can unload on
an easterner at a handsome profit; who
asserts that, if you buy a young orchard,
you can grow strawberries between the
trees and get Income sufficient to carry
you along until your orchard comes Into
bearing. To be sure there Is a grain of
truth In all his representations, but only a
grain, so I repeat the warning that you
Investigate well before tying yourself to
any real estate shark.
To' return to our trip. After breakfast
the auto was brought around and we
started for the "land flowing with milk
and honey" and I might add apples. As
we were served with condensed milk for
breakfast at the hotel, we concluded that
"flowing with milk and honey" was only
metaphorically speaking and not to be
taken literally. We crossed Hood river,
then cllmebd the hill to the east of the
town, winding In and out until we rounded
a curve that brought us to the top. Ye
gods, what a view! The entire valley was
spread out beneath up and it seemed like
one vast orchard, with miles upon miles
of trees. Away down beneath us was the
river, a wild mountain stream, and over
all like mighty giant sentinels standing
guard, one at either end of the valley, was
Mt. Hood and Mt. Adams.
You remember the Bible story of the
great temptation, how his satanio majesty
took the Lord up Into the high mountain
and showed him the kingdoms of the earth.
Now, 1 don't mean to infer that the real
estate agent was like unto the tempter,
nor that the other character was duplica
ted, but as I feasted my eyes upon that
beautiful valley, the story came to my
mind and I felt a great wave of tempta
tion surge over me to be master over
part of th's land. If only a few acies. And
ever, as the auto started, did we turn for
one more look upon that wondrous scene.
Upon closer view, we wore now In the
famous East Side district, where the old
est and beat orchards are located, and we
got a better Impression of what care and
thought and hard work the orchardlst be
stowed upon his orchard. The trees were
pruned Into perfect symmetry, each like
unto the other; and, a one looked down
the long rows, not a tree was out of line;
there was no litter of any kind strewn
about, no big clods of earth, but by careful
eutlvatl.n the ground was worked Into a
finely pulverised dust. The Impression re
ceived waa that of absolute cleanliness
and tidiness.
As w proceeded up the valley, our real
estate friend pointed out, here a ten-acre
bearing orchard, sold for S2.2S0 per acre;
there a ten-acre tract, not yet In bearing,
at SI. 60O per acre. Orchard after orchard
was shown us. with valuta ranging from
S1M up, for full bearing, and Sl.OuO and
stltuttons and throughout the professions that I had the world by the tall. It Is

that he had enough money to quit active

more In proportion than I have saved In

SPIRITS TIP OFF LONG SHOT
over for yound orchards Just coming Into
bearing. Raw land was offered at $150
to $250 per acre, according to location
Inasmuch as it costs $75 to $125 per acre
to clear, and It has been found much the
better plan to plant some crop the first
jrear after clearing, we concluded that ev.:a
raw land was by no means cheap.
About eight miles of a drive brought us
to Booth Hill, a very long, steep hill,
beyond which lay what is known as the
Upper valley, but we did not Investigate
this district, aa we had been sufficiently
impressed, not only with the beauty of
the Lower valley, but more with Its desir
ability as a money maker and a home site.
The auto now crossed Tucker's bridge and
returned to Hood River through the West
Side district; and, as we boarded the train
that night for Portland, I turned to Ger
trude and said: "It's Hood River or bust'
and. at this wrlUng, it looks Ilk both.
After that we made frequent trips to
Hood river. Investigating this or that prop
osition, and we soon came o know that
mere w.u, much or exaggeration and mis
represtnutlon In this valley. We learned
thai not all the Hood River valley Is
adapted for apple growing; there are frost
pockets In places and in other places no
depth of soil. One orchard ahown us had
been twice planted, the first trees having
attained a certain growth and then died
for lack, of depth of soil. Another place
recommended as having plenty of running
water for Irrigation purposes was found
to be underlaid with springs, and of course
the land had no value aa apple land.
For our purposes we wanted a partly
bearing orchard (I had no faith in straw
berries planted between trees) and to carry
us along knew we must have a steady In
come from an orchard. Then, too, we
needed buildings, and in every case where
the buildings were at all desirable or the
orchard in good condition the price was
almost prohibitive. There were no real es
tate snaps, such as you read about. We
became discouraged and were about to
give up our Idea of settling In the Hood
River valley, when we were told that
prices In the upper valley were not as high
and the land Juaf as rich and productive.
The real estate agents never so much as
mentioned this upper valley and even Hood
river people generally had no good word
to say of it, but we decided to Investigate
for ourselves, and one Sunday found us
again in Hood river ready to take the !
train to Parkdkle, the terminus of the rail
road in the upper valley.
As we afterward learned, this road Is
known In railroad circles as th Mount
Hood railway, but Is commonly called "The
Polygamy Central." being owned and con
trolled by the Mormona. It Is a little go-as-you-please
road, making atopa at almost
every crooalng. The conductor is a genial
good fellow, liked by ail, and generally
haa the passengers helping him load ana
unload his freight Occasionally the train
has to stop out In the country to let the
engine lay In a supply of wood or get up
steam or to give the conductor a chance
to chase stock off the track, but sooner or
later It reaches a little lumber camp owned
by the same interests. Here a couple of
hours is spent In shunting cars, while the
passengers amuse themselves as best they
can. Somt ladies bring along their lunches
and fancy work and have a regular picnic,
others, less philosophic, cuss and fume at
the long wait In a hot lumber yard. But
ail things have an end and Parkdale la at
last reached.
Many stories are told of this railroad
uncomplimentary to IU management It
la said that a man wanted a hair cut and
a shave and there came a time when he
could wait no longer. There being no
barber shop out in the country Itm was
forced to go to Hood River, arriving there
after the shops had closed at night .The
following morning the train left before
the shopa had opened and he waa forced
to stay over a full day. His hair cut and
shave cost him just $6.80. One day a
gentleman inquired of the agent when the
train would be In, and the agent replied:
"Oh, it won't be long now. Here comes
the conductor's dog." At another time
the train pulled out from Parkdale Just as
a gentleman drove up. He was anxious
to be In Hood River that night, so started
to walk, and four miles down the track he
overtook the train. '
Such was the line over which we trav
eled one Sunday to Parkdale. A drive of
three miles, after our railroad trip, brought
us to th Glacier View Orchard and one
look decided us. This ' was our future
home.
In my next letter I will tell you more of
the country and how Hood River has been
able to grow the finest apples in the world.

tistthat Is, she does now; but It was not
her state of mind yesterday when Dr.
Simons, after making preliminary exam
ination, said, "The Job will cost you just
$40."
"Let 'er go, professor," said Miss Loyd
despondently, as she wondered just where
the rent was to come from. The dentist
seized upon a monstrous pair of tweezers
and his patient shuddered with apprehen
sion, but before he could apply them the
Instrument dropped out of his hand.
"Wait," he said, "I must talk to the
spirits," and turning his back upon her
and leaving her speechless because of the
number of towels, wedges and assorted Im
plements of his art which he had left in
her mouth he disappeared Into a side
room.
It was then that Miss Loyd remembered
that the friend who had recommended the
dentist to her had explained that he was a
spiritualist and would leave his work the
Instant he fancied he heard a call from
the departed. It waa 'an hour before he
came back, and without looking at his
helpless patient he began to put on his hat
and coat. (
In desperation Miss Lloyd made herself
heard.
"Where are you going?" she said.
Dr. Simons looked around at her. "I
have been talking to the spirits. I always
leave everything to talk to the spirits.
They don't like It If you keep them wait
ing. They have Just told nje to play a
horse named Dell In the second race at
Jacksonville. I simply have to do what
the spirits tell me. You sit perfectly still
until I come back and I will fix you up
right away."
"Do the spirits ever lose?" she asked.
"Hush," said the doctor, sternly. "Of
course they never lose."
"Well, then," said Miss Lloyd, "I don't
believe In gambling, but this looks like a
sure thing. Put down five for me," and
she reached In her purse and handed over
the five.
It was almost two hours later when the
doctor returned, and coming to the door he
Immediately came over to the dentist's
chair and started to work.
"Did we win?" gasped Miss Loyd.
- VSlt still or I can't work," answered the
dentist, and kept on without reply. Nor
would he make any answer until he had
finished.
Then he handed her $25.
"The horse was 12 to L" he explained.
"That would make $06," protested the pa
tient. "Yes," said th dentist, "but my fee
was $40."
"I would have paid you," retorted Miss
Loyd Indignantly.
"Of course you would," answered the
dentist, "but the spirits told me to take
the money out first, and I always do what
the spirits say they have such good
sense."
The actress pocketed her money grate
fully. "Good day, doctor," she said. "I am sure
I am going to have a lot of trouble with
my teeth while the racing season lasts."

It Kills The Dandruff Germ
Stops Falling Hair
Tho individuals, whether men or women, who are the proud
possessors of a natural thick head ofhair are the ones who may ex
lioet the greatest and most lasting benefits from the use of NHW
HltO'S HKUJMCIDK. Don't neglect such hair. It is worth saving.
, The dandrfti'f germ is ever ready to pounce upon and destroy "
the lite of every unprotected hair. An intelligent use of JIKHl'l
CTDK kills the germ. The scalp is -kept clean and healthy and thia
not only prevents the hair from coming out, but permits it to grow
naturally.
Hair thus treated has the snap, life and luster that are so much
admired. Herpicide possesses an exquisite fiagrancy and does
not stain or dye. It rtops itching almost instantlv.
