"Most of the dryer men in the

a total of 228,000 pounds of fresh
fruit reports a dry-out of 1 to 3.b3,
or 2S.3 per cent .
' "TJie mid-Sentember rains an
pear to have caused an unusually
rapid "ripeijing of the fruit, and
later raips caused much cracking
and brown rof resulting In' much
fmlt not being harvested.
"In the Roseburg district weath
er conditions were less unfavor
able and It is estimated that 60 to
75 per cent of the fruit was sav
ed. "Trade estimates of the total
northwest crop vary from twenty
to thirty million pounds, with an
average of around 25,000.000
pounds. California state-fed;

Thor has developed and now offers you a new type
of Wringerlcss Washer -which extracts tSie water from
the clothes by centrifugal force and does it la the
same tub in 'which clothes are being washed.
Not only does this washer eliminate the necessity of
tjuttitig yout clothes through a wringer, but it eiim- '
mates the necessity of lifting heavy, steaming clothes
from the washing tub into separate spinning tabs.
The ingenious arrangement by which this is accom
. plished must be seen in operation to be fully ap
preciated. Speed and Simplicity
This new Wringerless' Washer is the climax in the
effort of the Trior people to attain speed, Thor Speed
Washers reduced to about half, the time in which it
was formerly necessary for a woman to do her weekly
washing. The newXTringer!essXrasherc!ips about 20
minutes more from the time now required to wash,
making it one of the speediest washers on the market
today. A more attractive, trimmer, neater washer
was nevef built. Moreover it is simple in operation,
having an arrangement that extracts the water from
one batch of clothes while another batch is being
4 washed in the water below the extractor.
