for what S(siuh to those who luiv.
olserved this waste as shiftlensnesh Its
isrmltting It, when In pnint (,f ra.i
they were powerless, under the tir
cumatancea, to prevent It.
In the tlrst place, the older orchards
of the state were planted with refer
ence tlrt to the production of a family
supply, and afterward to meet a n.ir
row local demand. Some thirty-live1
years ago, it Is true, Oregon applet,
found a remunerative market In San
Francisco, hut that was oyer when
tsiiironiia orchardlssp demonstrated
the fact that apples, as well as grapes
and peaches, could be grown there In
abundance. Hence the Oregon orch
ards that were planted to meet tho de
mand of the Sau Francisco market
have been for years given over to
moss, caterpillars and decay.
Planted to supply a limited market,
the universal plan of early onimrillstx
was to sport a wide variety of apples,
the usual allotment being from three
to six trees of a kind. As a eonse
quonee, when transcontinental rail
roads, with their numerous feeders
tailing fruitless regions, brought a
widened market, tliere were not
enough apples of any kind In otiy
orchard of ordinary size to warrant
snippers in handling the product. This
stage of fruit growing in the Willam
ette valley had Its discouraging, waste
fill day, but it has to a great extent
vanished. Those who have nliiiii.xl
orchards in recent years have planted
for the wider market that lian heen
opened up by transportation facilities
and by the springing up of cities and
towns in regions that a generation ago
were uninhabited. Many of them,
orchards are now coining Into their
first bearing, and the consignment of
fruit to these farther points Is made
practicable by H. ability of dealers
to secure enough fruit of a kind -as

meet the opportunity, tliere are Intel

the Ibid for all the better classes of
iiiiii-Kcinoio rrniit, wherever It Is
raised In quantity and quality that will
Justify sending pickers to tho orchards.
While the grower does not get all
tho prollt there Is In fruit raising In
tills way, he gets what the old system
and conditions denied hlm-a market
-by having It brought to his very
doors. Of course, the farmer who vet
adheres to the old method lias more
1 run ttian tie can use, and lose his
surplus, as In former years. Tliere
are enough of these still to make the
waste of fruit lu the Willamette valley
enormous in aggregate. This simply
cannot he helped while these condl
Motis hold, since, as in former years,
tho demand of the local market In
limited. There are enough fruit grow

tablish the reputation of Oregon In

Then came the reply:

J, It. Carter In Kugena Hoglster:
t have I mm' 11 visiting several of the
hop yards In the past few days In Post
Valley preelnel, your correspondent
finds by eh observation that the
Imps miiko a beautiful outside show,
but under the vine next to the pole
there wo find 110 uoi to speak of.
Also your correspondent visited T,
Howard & Sons' ami James Scriven
ers' hop yards. We find all the yard
on about the same grade, all on good
bottom land. At the present outlook
tho coming hop crop w hen picked ami
baled will be away abort of the es
timate already made. We think there
will be something over half a crop,
In our locality your correspondent has
as good a hop yard as can 1st found In
our valley and on good river bottom
hind. Wo don't expect over half a
crop as the hop has not lllied up the
tinea as they should do according to
past years. We have l'cu cultivating
nml growing hops n a business occu
pation ever since the year lwcj, in
cluding this year Is 111 years, and 1
tlml the hops have not turned out as
low down on the poles as they do
commonly, especially on tall poles,
