INTRODUCE H KEW INDUSTRY

and they have ready market for them
in Kaw-Tork at prlees that do not
drop below IS cents per pound. Other
things considered, this Is a very lucra
tive reimbursement. In the first place
the product l produced from under
Sized cherries a well as . over ripe
fruit. Only 50 per cent In.' weight Is
lost In the process of drying. . It costs
the growers at Cove 1 cent per pound
to lay thein down at the Cove drier,
and 1 cents to have them dried.
The transportation comes under a
dried prune rate, and, ot course, there
is no room for losa in transportation
like there Is with the fresh fruit
hence the shipments can be made In
slow freight cars.'
Cherries, ot the Republican variety,
are being picked this week, says C.
Stackland, who Is In La Grande to
day, and when the entire cherry crop
that did not sell Is converted Into this
new kind of product that takes the
place of raisins, he will have about
two carloads at least.
That this Industry may grow to be
come an Important side Issue of the
cherry hnnlntwis in this Valley, is firmly
believed by the Stackland Bros. They
are delighted with the ready market
which they found and have figured a
snug profit from the by-product, si
to speak.
