CALIFORNIA'S COAL OUTPUT
DURING. YEAR OF 1907
The product inn of eonl in California
in lftft7 was the smallest reported in
the state since mining began in lsiil,
acocrding to E. Parker, of the 1'nit
ed States geological survey. The in
creased product inn of petroleum and ils
use for fuel purposes have had a inosl
demoralizing effect on the California
coal industry, and except for domestic
purposes there is little market for the
product. Prom 77,ft.i tons ia lftit'i
the eoal output decreased to 2."i,2ftft tons
in lftnfi; in 1!M)7 the total production
was but 13,ft:"i0 tons, valued at .f3S,
213. During lft7, hnwevel, a eunsid
orable amnnnt nf development work
was done at the Stone Canyon coal
properties in Monterey county, and
when transpiration Hues now in course
of construction have been completed
to this field, which lies 2." miles from
the Southern Pacific railroad, the coal
output of California will probably be
greatly increased. The domestic, market
lias in the past been supplied by coal
from the sub-bituminous (black lig
nite) mines of the Mount Diablo and
Corrall Hollow fit-Ids in Alameda and
Contra Costa counties, by boal brought
in from Oregon, Washington, and Brit
'ish Columbia, and alsu, to some extent
by coal from Japan and Oient Britain,
The. Monterey county coal is true hi
tnminous and is of much higher grudi
than that produced in other parts of
the state or at Cons Bay in Oregon. It
can be delivered at -San Praneiseo and
o her cities in the state at less cost
than' the coals brought from other
sources and should fin 1 a pmfitnhle
market.
The attempts at briuett ing which
have been made do not seem to have
resulted in the increased utilization of
the sub-bituminous coal.-, of Mount Di
abh and Crorall Hollow. It is probabl
that this is due partly to the form of
the briuuets, which makes them nun
suitable for power purposes than- foi
demostic use; moreover, the briipielting
industry has suffered because of tin
competition of the product with fuel
oil.

HOOD RIVER '8 APPLE
CROP BEING SHIPPED
HOOD RIVER, Or., August 14. The
first of Hood River's early fall apples
are now being shipped out, but as yet
no sales of winter fruit have been re
ported. Usually by this time in the
Reason arrangements have been made to
secure the part of the crop handled by
individual shippers, but buyers so far
this year have made no purchases.
Authorities here on the apple situa
tion on the coast state that the same
conditions prevail in the other fruit
growing sections in the Pacific north
west, and it is also stated that buyers
are holding off iu the hope of securing
lower prices. Advices from the east
are to the effect that thev have com
bined to bear the apple market iu the
west, although eastern growers report
small crops.
It is thought by many that some kind
of nn agreement was entered into by
buvors not to purchase any apples until
after the meeting of the International
Apple Shippers' association at Niagara
Falls August " to S. It is belie veil that
later there will be the same scramble
for fancy western box fruit that there
has been in former years.
