MKOFORD DAILY TRIBUNE. MKKFOKD. ORWIDX. WKPXKSPAY. A I'd I 'ST WOS. 410 CARS OF OREGON APPLES Most Districts Show In creased Production-At Hood River Banner Crop erop, owing to :t great extent to the j cold au rainy weather early in the, season. .Of pears there will lie a full crop, tViutue and melons are also up to the average and there will be a full crop of both. The big crop of the season, however, will be the apples, there being a large acreage of the finest and best market able variety that will bear this year for the first time, besides whieh all the old orchards are in fine shape and will alt yield heavy crops. Last season, tioseburg fruitgrowers shipped nine ear loads of apples, while this year a con servative estimate places the number of carloads that will be shipped at least 15. BUTTE FALLS ITEMS. Oregon will have over 1000 curs of fine apples to ship this year, as com pared with about (100 curs last year. t.'Mp prospects on the whole are favor able, though some sections of the state an doing better than other:i, says the Portland Oregon in a summary of the fruit situation. Hood ltiver will have its banner crop, though' it was feared 'earlier in the season that some damage had been done. The shipments from Hood River valley will be between 400 and 00 ears against -0) cars in 110". The (irand Honde valley is preparing to send nut 300 cars, double the mini ber sh i pped last yea r, while Med ford growera expect to dipi-tch about 200 cars, an they did last season. In the other apple sections of the state the conditions are reported as good or n little bettor than they were last sea son, though it is known that .Home, vi ne ties, Baldwins especially, will run lighter than last year in the Willamette valley, and it is also said the valley New towns and Spitzenbergs will not produce the crop they did a year ago. Prices that will be realized on shipping stock will be governed by conditions in the eastern states, where the yields are reported to be comparatively light. High Prices May Rule. Apple men who are gathering infor mation in regard to crop conditions in advance of the shipping season state that late reports give evidence of high prices for fancy western apples again this year, states n Hood ltiver dispatch. It is stated that so far New York and Missouri, which are big factors in tin apple market, only show indications of an average crop, vhile that of Ohio. Indiana and Illinois is almost a failure. At (irand Junction, Col., which is one of the greatest competitors of voast box apples in the west, the falling off in the amount of fruit shipped this year will according to a report received from John P. II Moore, manager of the Writ it (! rowers ' association there, amount to ".(MM cars. The Grand Junction district includes lunula, Clifton, Palisades ami (iiaud Junction. The normal shipment from there is from 2."nni to .toon cars, hut it is staled liv Mr. Moore that it will be less than oti this year. Last: year 800 cars were shipped from the i dint net. j In Willamette Valley. , "The only trouble with the apple in- j dustry in tin Willamette valley is thej difficulty of marketing to advantage," said Fruit Inspector K. C. Armstrong of Salem. He continued; "The apple , business is somet king like the cherry business. The quantity grown is com paratively small, and no adequate fa cilities are at Imnd for marketing them, j In the clierrv business we are at the; mercy of the local buyers for this sen Hoi), and the apple industry may be said to be in much the same condition. "The apple crop this year will be larger than ever before, but it is ini possible to say how many cars there will ho to ship outside. Last year the crop was virry light and the outside shipments amount ed to comparatively not hing. ' Several of the large nrcliardists in Na lem's vicinity are looking forward to very large yields this senr.ou. The Wal lace orchards, for example, ernbrncitig about 4-" acres of apples, are especially promising. The same may bo said of the Vender and other large orchards. In Grand Rondo Valley. The most conservative and in fact the lowest estimate put on the apple crop of the (irand Konde valley for tin coining season is .too carloads of a fruit that has suffered by little with blight. Early in the season growers were alarmed at frequent but light frosts, and then again by the apparent spread of the dreaded apple disease. Hut through individual attention to the mat ter at the opportune moment, and by reason of t he careful work done by Fruit Inspector C. I). Huffman, the fruit stands todav as prolific and of as high a grrulo a" has ever been pro diU'ed here. The .tin. cur shipment that is expected for the coming venr is about double what was produced last vear. though ihe year before that was close to the mark ;;et for this The oualitv is expected to be on a par with other year--. In Umpqua Valley. Fruitgrowers of the Fiupqua valley have good reason to be pleased with the outlook for this season's crops. Al though somewhat rainy -luring the early part of the season, all crops are now in a flourishim.' condition and it is safe to Riiv that more tnouov will be received by half by Douglas county fruitgrowers than was ever received for any pre vious crop. Owing to the faithful work of County Fruit Inspector Kiddle in causing the re moval of all old and diseased orchards throughout the county, the quality of the fruit will be far better than ever hefore; in fact, it is the bmist of the fruitgrower hen- that Douglas county fruit will compare this year in over particular with the celebrated Hood Kiver fruit. Blight has not appai I in nnv section 't tno county tnis neaon. camp J. I. I. Patton of Eagle Point is at the Falls. Vance Colvig will soon bo in with friends. There are about 1" men employed at the mill and kept busy. ! Fraud Xetherland anil J. 1. Patton j have gone into the hills. ! C. P. Briggs, postmaster, is in Med ford, hut will return soon. Several of the homesteaders have i raised fine crops of hay and have it harvested. Mrs. Tref frcn came down from his ; homestead and has gone to Med ford for supplies. J. P. Hughes is kept busy these days having new goods bought in for his in creasing trade. The work on the new school building is in abeyance temporarily awaiting lumber supplies. I The weather here is much more pleas ant 1 ha n in the vallev. Cool nights and ' partially warm days. j Ed Ham, with his wife, and liouis Warner are all at Camp "Nick" and having a splendid time. Claspill it Wheeler has placed sign boards all along the road to Hutte Fulls advertising their feed stables. Rev. Mr. (irueder in company with John Butler, Mrs. Bough ton nnd Mrs. Butler, have brogen camp and gone to Medford. Fred Root, cousin of the secretary of war, is here visiting Attorney Pont. Mr. Root has just come from New York and it is hoped persuasion may prevail upon him to settle in the valley. The story about the big fire near the Falls and which was said to have burn ed the mill and one house, your corre spondent has found to be untrue. There was a small fire in the woods, hut at no time was Butte Falls or its property imperiled. We are all well and safe. The special attention of t he county judge and commissioners is called to the dilapidated condition of the "cor duroy'' bridge near t'aphart 's. It can not be cr ssed and teams and travelers must cut around it. It is in a danger ous state and should at once be repair- as the material is close to hand for the purpose. Wo hope this will be sufficient to have immediate needed re pairs made and the public highway put in travelable condition. This "cordu roy ' ' is on an important road much traveled.
