Clierry Doxom Comments on Nc1k
of Cannery In Tills Valley Apple
.' Crop is Ukenl.se Promising; Tills
Year -Prosperity Smiles on Goxc.
Dave Clark, the well known Cove
merchant. Is over n his auta today
after cherry boxes. , Ho states that
crop conditions are Very- good this
year. , In some fields the wheat crop
Is short, but he expects the Increased
price over last year will bring the total
volume up to the average. ' Mr. Clark
this year and has Just finished a con
tract with a Portland cannery to take
the cherry crop suitable) for cannery
purposes on' a basis of $S0 per ton.
Tfro of the largest growers contracted
their crops last year, Messrs. Thomas
and Stacklnnd. They are fortunate,
receiving $80 per ton. '.
There Is ample help to gather the
crop. Oorwers are paying 4 cents pfer
gallon.
The apple crop at this time Is also
promising, both as to yield and qual
ity. Mr. Clark Is In a position 'to realize
the necessity of the establishment of
a large cannery In this valley. 'At the
present time there are hundreds of
crates of raspberries drying on the
vines of Cove growers from want .of a
market, and If there was a cannery
the present acreage would be greatly
increased.
This season Mr. Clark handled
about two-thirds of the strawberry
crop, amounting to IS000 In all, and
every grower made big money, aver
aging over $3 per crate, f. o. b. Cove,
and there was a market for any
amount offered. The Cove, 'like the
western-portion of the valley. Is not
growing the amount of strawberries
grown a few years ago. There Is a
fine opening for strawberry culture In
this valley on a large scale.
