ty CtMintry Tl of Th Awwl Land
Thia Is a World of
Trouble.
One of the bipKet troubles thai
confront the average purtion is that of
finding Komeone or Hgiethin on
whom to lay the blame.
Just now there are n few apples go
inp out of thif section and there is u
piiiHpcct for fair prices. No ou
thinks of conceding the fact that this is
normal situation,' but tho accepted
reason for soma return from apple
production just now is that the crop
has hem short Ujib year mid the sup
ply not over-abundant, and this con
dition is more or letm supplemented
by the general fact that product., of
nil kinds have not yet entirely shrunk
from the Mlimulating demands of war
times.
Why should there not always, or
practically at ull seasons like the pres
. ent, be a demand for Grande ttonde
apples and prospectively fair prices?
This is not the ciiko by any means, an
many who live near La Grande can
testify. One orchnrdiat disposed of n
reasonably pood crop this year
cleaned up all his hack scores thnt
hnve accumulated through many years
of bad hit'k with his apple crop. Why
hlmuld not he also have a reasonable
assurance that other yenrs to follow
will be us jrnod as the present year?
A preat deal of time and energy has
been expended in trying to figure out
- just such problems as this ono. The
middleman has In nil these calculations
been the priaeipul stumbling block in
the way of decent returns for the fruit
product; and the cost of transportation
also shares a great part of the blame. (
The. solution has not yet been satis-j
fnetoiily reached. Hut M is not the
apple grower almie that has trouble1.
Sometimes the general dissatisfaction
is brought out in the way of compnrj-
RI'MS,
Just now In many markets first
class eating npnles are selling for the
some price as manors. ThU leads the 1
ornmre grower to make this port of

of mother and when he is 15 to 1H
years of age the father awakens to
find that he has a fine son and wants
to associate with him. Too late, too
late, for the hoy has found other asso
ciates not of choice, but b'nu:;e dad
dy did not have any time to give to
his boy.
