HUNDREDS GATHERING WALLA WALLA CROP Walla Walla, Wash., Aug IS. Hundreds of men, women, boys and girls are now employed In the fruit packing establishments of the valley, and from now on until the apple crop is disposed of there will be employ ment for all who desire it. The or chards are filled with pickers, and the work of harvesting the fruit is going ahead rapidly. Thousands of dollars will be paid out in wages before the crop Is tak en care of, and for the first time prob ably in the history of the ralley the money paid out will exceed that of wages in the harvest fields. Orchardists Prefer Girls. Girls are much preferred by the or chardlsts of the valley for packing the fruit, their work being much neater, better and faster than that of the men. At this time most of the men who are looking for work are employed in the harvest fields, but as soon as this work is done there will be a general rush .to the orchards. Prunes are the center of attraction just now, and hundreds of tons of this fruit is being prepared for Bhlpment. The cars of fruit eastbound are being sent out regularly now, and the ship ments are much larger than ever be fore in the fruit growing history of the valley. Results Rrom Packing School. Apple growers are expecting great results from the apple packing school that was held here last winter, and they believe that their fruit will be much better prepared for shipment this year than ever- before as a result ot the Instructions given. Not only did the actual operators who work in the packing houses learn the art of packing, but the owners of orchard themselves took the lessons, and are much better prepared than ever before, to supervise their pack ing. There has been as yet little diffi culty In getting help to take care of the fruit, but orchardlsts say that hundreds of helpers could be put .Into service right now.
