Railroads Qivs Out Figurss Showing
Oregon’s Bala of Fruits.
Portland— More than twice as many
apples were shipped out of this state
during 1907 than in 1906, according to
reports compiled by the railroads. The
Southern Pacific and O. R. A N. lines
ha ve completed figures showing the
cars of apples shipped from every (mint
on the allied lines, and the total num
ber of cars is a surprise.
“ Nearly all these paples were bought
f. o. b. at the station nearest the or
chards,” said General Freight Agent
Miller, of the Harriman lines. “ Thia
shows the fruit is in demand, and
Eiatern buyers come here in search of
H. The prices this season are better
than ever before.
One station on our
lines that never shipped an apple be
fore this year seut away 40 cars to the
East a short time ago. This indicates
how the apple industry la going ahead.
I predict it will only be a few years be
fore apple growing will be one of the
biggest activities of Oregon people.”
Can’t Usa Wood.
Burns— The forest rangers of tbe
Blue mountain foreat reserve have fined
several Harney citizens for cutting tim
ber in tbe reserve without permits from
the foreat guards. The largest fine im
posed was on B. A. Dickenson, who
operates a sawmill about eight miles
from Harney.
He was caught taking
timber from government land and fined
$300 for about 17 treea. The sawmill
men have been making thia a practice
for years before the reserve was creat
ed, and thought it no harm to continue
the practice. Last fall waa the first
time a foreat guard has been stationed
here to give permits for cutting timber
for wood and other purposes. There
has always been plenty of timber out
side the reserve for wood and timber
for botlding purpoees until
lately,
when it waa all eecured by outside peo
ple, to be transferred in time to large
timber companies.
Board Raisas Teachers' Pay.
Oregon City— The teachers of tbe
city schools will receive a substantial
increase in salaries next year. This
was assured at the annual meeting of
the local district, at whifeh a special
tax of 3)4 mills was levied. The levy
is 1 milli n excees of the recommenda
tions of the board of directors, and the
excees will be added to the salaries of
the teachers, making the amount ex
pended next year about $10,000, in
comparison with $8,000 for the year
just closed. The annual report of the
directors shows the schools to be in a
flourishing condition, and the financial
report shows that the floating indebt
edness is $909 lees than last year.
Clyde 8ayne Acting President.
Salem— The executive oommittee of
the state normal schools haa elected C.
E. Payne, of the department of science
at Ashland normal, to serve as acting
