Portland. Ore.. Jan. 15. After mar
keting the most profitable fruit crop
ever produced in . the state. Rogue
River growers have begun the plant
ing of apple, pear and peach trees on
a scale that will double the crop' of
this section. The record-breaking
prices paid In eastern markets for
Oreaon fruit is responsible for the
planting of 7000 acres with half a
million trees this winter.. Only 2600
acres of new orchards were, set out
last year.
r Ya a.t ImaUd tntnl 4t tlOW trRft
225,000 are pear, 175,000 apple, and
100,000 peach trees. At the bearing
stage these trees In one season would
produce a crop worth 13,000,000, if
the growers received only $1 a bushel,
which Is far below the prevailing
prices for Oregon fruit. By keeping
up the reputation of Its output to the
highest mark, the apples and pears
grown In the Rogue River section now
command the highest prices In home
and forulgn markets.

ment, culminated today in the mar
riage of Miss Helen Currlngton of tills

baseball team for two years. The
ceremony was performed at the resi
dence of the parents of the bride, Mr.

The romance of Mr. and Mrs. Wlns-

followed, an acquaintance was formed
which ripened Into love and the cou
ple became engaged before Mr. Wins
