Walter A. Frost, president of thd
A. Rupert company, spent the day
in Ko.seburg looking ever the local
situation and making plans for the
work to be done in this locality. Mr.
Frost is one of the big canuery men
cf the country and he has been se
lected to head the Kupert company,
which without doubt is one of the
largest concerns in the northwest
Mr. Krte-t is obtaining first hand in
formation and is securing a general
idea of what Is needed by the com
pany. In order that he may deter-
mine the future course to lie taken.
"PiiloRs we sjiocd up production
the country will eoon be in tbe grip
of one of the greatest fruit short
ages the world has ever known."
V.r. Frost says. 'The fruit situation
in tbe east is serious. The eastern
market is taking high grade fruit
Hnd Is taking unlimited quantities.
This means that we must produce
for unless we do the market will be
come short and we will then face a
condition of fruit famine that is un
desirable. That is why we are en
deavoring to can more fruit, but to
i!o this we need the co-operation of
ihe erower.
"The grower must produce more.
"Hie canneries must can more. It
now becomes a quostion of produc
'lon. You have a wonderful fruit
country here nnd we Intend to heln
vou develop It. We are coming in
here with the Intention of growing
and we hope soon to see this valley
'eadlng in fruit production."
Mr. Frost Inspected the local
Main and made a trip into some of
the fruit distrle'R near the city In
"ompany with D. J. Matthews, gen
eral sunerintendent of canneries,
nnd A. T. Redden of the local can
nery, lie expressed hlmse'f as be
ing greatly pleased with local con
ditlons. '
The mntket, he states. Is much
better than had ben exneeted'. The
r.ne that b!';h prices must be paid
vill no' effect the pack this year be--a"s
of tbe shortage of fruit In the
opst. Per"le were tinablo to enn
fruit them-elves on account of tbe
mgar shortaeo nnd consen,ttontlv
re tnrnin to the cannery product.
The Puoer eomnnnv. he states, was
"'into enough to secure a good
tuptily of sugar end cans nnd tho
r.aek this vear will be larger than
ever before.
The hour has come, to determine
once and for all time whether or not
Hoseburg and vicinity is to have a
live and aggressive chamber of com
merce to care for its needs, or
whether or not we are lo slumber
and drift with the tide.
There will bo a meeting at the cliy
hall Wednesday, Juno 16, at 8 o'clock
li. m., for the purpose of formulating
plans, electing officers, and reorgan
izing the-chamber of commerce to
carry on the work for tho remainder
of the year.
We feel that the Interests and fu
ture of Hoseburg . and Douglas
county are at stnko and not keeping
pace with other communities where
an effective chamber of commerce is
at work. The burden Is light, if
borne by nil. but extremely heavy if
required to be carried by a few.
The organization is absolutely
necessary to keep step in the progres
sive line of march. Home seekers
aro asking for information and
should be aided In their efforts to
choose wisely; road projects are to
be urged and encouraged for the de
velopment of the county as a whole;
industries which lie dormant should
be revived and awakened; Ihe great
fruit, grain, stock, and other numer
ous resources of our county need at
tention and can only be given atten
tion through a general body, such as
live chamber of commerce should
represent. Are you interested? If
you are, be present and counted on
the side of progress and develop
ment. Mr. Business Man, Professional
Man, Farmer and Citizen of Rose
burg, the opportunity has come. Aro
you willing to do your part? If so,
be present al this meeting. In jus
tice to yourself, town and county,
you should not miss it. Kemeniber
