James Roots, an enterprising farmer
of Clackamas, was in town Tuesday.
Mr. Roots is making a success of evap
orating apples, that would otherwise go
to wast in his neighbor's orchards. He
pays 15 cents per sack for all apples de
livered at his drier. He ships the. peel
ings to San Francisco, where they are
used in the manufacture of jelly. He
receives 2 cents per pound for this
product, and later gets six cents per
pound for the evaporated fruit. By

by his wife and child, .visited his par
ents at Canby Sunday night . Mr.

Clarke county last week. He will put
in every day during the campaign, and
will finish up at his home at Seattle, on
November 7th. Mr. Shank is a Clacka

The prune growers in the vicinity of
Olac kamas station are feeling consider
ably encouraged over present and pros
pective future profitB in the prune busi
ness. The product of five of the larg
est driers there aggregated 82 tons ap
portioned as follows: Holcomb Bros.,
25 tons; Marion Johnson, 15 j J. W.
Roots, 14; J. B. Cramer, 15; Goorge H.
' Webster, 13. The entire product was
disposed off to a Portland wholsale gro
csry house for cash, at prices ranging
from 3 to 4 7-16 cents per pound. Some
of the driers are now running on apples.
It is probable that the yield from the
driers around Canby will aggregate
about 150 tuns, as the Willamette Land
Company's drier alone produced about
75 tons of prunes. Clackamas county
growers are learning that it pays to
produce large sizes, and to cure them in
the best possible condition.

Postmaster Horton has received the
new money order blanks, which under
a new regulation of the postofflce depart
ment, can be made payable at the office
issuing money orders. This will be a
great convenience to the public in many
ways. Thus a person can pay a small
bill or large one for that matter,
through the postoifice, without going to
the trouble of hunting up the creditor,
or a person who wishes to deposit
money lor sate Keeping can secure
money orders at small expense, payable
to himself. This is considered an in
troductory prelude to the establishment
of government savings banks in the fu
ture.
