BERRY GROWERS
OF COUNTY WILL
ORGANIZE SOON
The Oregon State Board of Horti
culture has notified O. E. Frevtar.
tate horticultural inspector, that a
meeting will be held on Friday De
cember 17th, at 10 o'clock at the of
fice of the Oregon State Board, Room
52, Multnomah county court housa,
Portland, for the purpose of discus
sion of a ban which has been placed
upon the strawberry plants grown in
the northern part of the 'state.
It la very Important that all growers
should attend this meeting, and again
bring samples of plants.
The strawberry plant growers of
Clackamas county are planning as
organization in order to protect the
Industry, and to stimulate and adver
tise the business of plant growing
more extensively.
The organization will be known as
The Oregon Strawberry Plant Grow
ers of Clackamas county. There is
no district .tn Oregon where better
plants are grown than In Clackamas
county, in fact this U the first county
that went Into the industry In a com
merctal way. There should be no
reason why the plants grown here
should be classed among the common
run of plants that are put on the
marltet by Inexperienced growers who ,
put mixed varieties on the market '
thaeby (Mtroylng the (commercial
value of the plants, and injuring the
Industry.
It Is quite likely that A. H. Finn
gan of Oregon City will be1 elected
President of the Association. He is
the largest strawberry plant grower
tn the county, and la well qualified to
head such an organization.
Recently an embargo was placed
on strawberry plants grown north ot
a line drawn east and west through
McMlnnville, by the quarantine of
ficers in California, and this restric
tion on shipment? in a district known
to be free from Infection or Infest
ation Is unwarranted.
At a meeting held in Portland re
cently with the President of the
State Horticultural Society, a district,
was set aside bounded by the Wil
lamette, Clackamas and M alalia
rivers, known to be absolutely free
of any Insect pest or disease ot any
kind that Is in furious to the Industry.
Such an organization! ot growers
will protect them against discrimin
ation and unfair rulings by outside
interests, and will tend to stabilize
the business, which Is of too great
proportions to be lost to the county,
amounting from $75,000 to $90,000 per
year.
An organization will be effected by
the Clackamas county strawberry
plant growers In the office of 0. E.
Freytag at Gladstone, Saturday after
noon at 1 o'clock-
Mrs. Oren Cutting, of Molalla, ac
companied by Mrs. Suean M. Baty,
and the latter's daughter, Susan, of
that place, were bere Wednesday,

accompanied by his family, arrived in
Oregon City Tuesday evening. They

arrived In Oregon City a few days
ago from) St. Louis, Mo., and have

Cartlidge, on Washington street. They
left Wednesday afternoon for Port
land, where they will make their
home'at 147 Park street, for the pre
sent. Mr. Cartlidge, who Is a b-othei
of H. B. Cartlidge, has accepted a
temporary position with the Coin
Manufacturing company of Portland,
but expects to go .into business later
in the Northwest.
The Crtlldw family started fo;
Oregon tn their automobile, and had
gotten as far as Marshall. Mo., when
weather conditions becoming severa.
the automobile trip was abandoned
and the machine disposed of. Thp
remainder of the t"lp was made by
train.
.t one stop in Missouri a flood cov
ered the road, and it was necessary for
the family to return and remain at
a farm house for several days before
they could proceed. It was at this
point that Mr. and Mrs. Cartlidge de
cided on making the remainder of the,
trip by train.
