IN THE FRUIT GROWING WORLD Conducted by Charlee W. Wlbw-, roth, manager of the Rogue River'' Fruit & Produce Asseclatlen. To Our If embers and Growers : The past week has completed the shipment of the Cornice and Boso pears, and our next work will be tho shipping of our Jonathan and Bald win apples. We have lately sold ono car of Jonathans at very fair prices. I had hoped to get put more cars of Jonathan? this week and prevailed upon our growers to pick as rapid ly as possible, but thev have been slow in resoonding. My past expo rieaee has been that the early mar kets on Jonathans arc always the beet. If we cannot have the apples whin we think it it advisable to have them, wo must not bo criticised wheci results do not materialize ub well as you expected. It ill be owes us to adviso other than what we consider is for your best inter nets and the interests of tho asso ciation. Such of you as have Jon athans should come in and talk to H8 ho we will be able to load full ears promptly and not have our Jonathans straggling along until wo get to picking Spitz. More frujt is ruiaed by picking Into than by piok iag too early, espocinlly when the apploa are well colored and seeds Maelr, showing that they are ready te pUk. We do not want you ,to pick your apples too green, but we do think they should be picked when they aro red enough and when wo aro ready to put them into our best grades. Our Jonathans do best in car lots, so get them in at tho time wo are loading straight cars, at least come in and talk the matter over with us if you have any apples to ship. Shook. The unexpected has happened. Our boxmakers, on account of fo est fires and scarcity-of lumber on this account, are unable to turn out our boxes as fast as we order them. Wo have cautioned you time and time aguin to get your shook ordered. J Tho association is borrowing money to pay for this shook without ask ing you to pay for them before your apples aro shipped, and still there aro a number of our growers whoso wants aro not supplied for boxes, and you alono aro to blame. The I management will not bo censured on' this account, and in turn will not censure our boxmakers, and if you linvo any complaints to make you should bo charitable to them, as you know you havo been repeatedly cau tioned in this matter. Packers aro not plentiful this sea son and all tho growers expecting to pack at their own orchards should locate their packers at once. The association is ready to give all tho information it has concerning pack ers, but it has no control over tho packers and cannot guarantee that they can bo secured at any time they are requested. Settle your dates of packing and make your ar rangements for packers at once. Newspaper Talk. Perhaps most of you have noticed in our daily papers thut tho associ ation averaged on Bartlett pears $2.50. This is incorrect and mis leading. On account of large quan tities we havo shipped and in tho absence of officnl account sales, wo are not able at ths tmo to publsh our averages. Wo ask our membo'rs to not bo displeased with their n'y. sociation until they aro satisfied thoy havo something to bo displeased with. Do not forgot that the major ity of our pears come from smaller growers, and each ono has some spe cjal condition of fruit that the other does not have, and quite naturally wouldmako a harder car to soil than one with a straight pack. By tho association work' wo scattered our pears judiciously, making better markets for thoso who do not ship through tho association, and by not shipping through tho association do not givo us tho revenue. At tho same timo theso independent ship pers should bo fair when they give offhand somo of their sales. Ono of tho unfortunate conditions wo aro laboring against as an association is, wo do jiot know what prices you would havo obtained if you had no association, consequently cannot state at this timo what benefit the association is. Perhnps at this timo it would not bo out of order to pub lish on editorial from tho Portluud Evening Telegram of September 15. This editorial mentions our vallov and in sovornl instnnenn I have had expressions from tho outside world and tho idea, seems to prevail that wo havo started on linon onlv second best to tho citrus association of Cnl- itornia. Other people think wo amount to something, while somo of our own people aro loath to boost at all. C. W, WlLMEROT-il. Ynklnw Loss an Incentive. "Yakima valloy lost heavily this year through not being ab)e fully toJ market its tremendous peach crop. Thoso arc reflex strokes in general progress, which aro unfortunnto hut not uncommon, and should not dis courage tho orchardist of that groat valloy or othor northwest fruit reg ion. Yakima growers wero not or ganized to got full benefit of markot opportunities. Their loss is n mar kot lesson only. They lacked sys tem in their effort, tho foresight which spans minor difficulties. Their loss should inspire careful, study of Hood Itivor and Roguo Rivor valley methods, or tho great successes won in California in both citrus and pome fruit marketing, "In this region tho market is all important. Fruit of tho host grades can bo produced by upplying scien tific methods now coming to bo well known. It is in tho highost demand among eastern consumers. Tho moans of reaching markot must bo foremost in ovory community's thought, and this moans organiza tion, assooiutod effort and common ndvnnco upon transportation prob lems, Community ennnories which do not put immodiato comfort ubove tho orohardist's misfortuno nro an other essontlal. All tho methods oJ( getting fruit propnrcd for market in most nccoptablo form should bo ex perimented with nnd put into prac tice whoro found u buccobb, that ro liunco is not exclusively upon any ono nvonuo of safety. Markot stud ies will bo preachod as insistently in tho coming yours as production, and tho Yakima valloy is but an incen tive, not a discouragement." Tho Roguo Rivor Fruit and Prod uco association havo issued tho fol lowing suggestions to growers who pack apples at tho association's packing house: If you do not know tho timo of picking, inquire at tho offiqo. Provido plenty of picking boxes, u sufficient number to givo tho pack ing houso ono day's timo on your fruit. No packing boxes will bo loaned by tho association. Fruit should nlways bo placed, not poured or dumpod, into boxes, Han dle liko eggs. Bruises of all sorts should ho avoldod, Rough sorting should always bo dono when picking, thnt is, sorting for tho worst of tho worms nnd do formed npplos. Novor allow fruit to stand long in tho orchard. Fruit should always bo hauled on springs. It will not ho roooived at tho association packing houso when not hauled on springs. When hauling on tho road, fruit should always bo covorod to protect from dust and mud and sun. Tho charge for packing, including boxos, papor. nails, lubol, stamping nnd nailing, is S3 coats. Evory grower should have a namo stump, bought through tho assoolution, thnt nil may ho uniform. There should ho n oompotont fore man over each crow of paokors, and ho should control tho packing. All paokors must bo rogibtorod at tho association nnd tho association will givo tho growers nil possiblo infor mation in regard to paokors. Also tho association will inform tho paok oib of growors uooding tholr sorv icos. Tho association, as an associ ation, has no paokors to soud to any ono, does n6t employ any, oxcopt In its own paoking houso, and is in no sonso rosponsiblo for any of tho pookorfl' pay, or grado of work. Growers must nrrnngo for and with thoir own packers and pay thorn, Growers aro oxpootod to koop tho itublos properly filled wth applos for tho paokors. - v "
