THE BAKER PLAYERS
Season's Opening of Popular Amuse
ment Organization Takes
Place Today
When the box. office of the Baker
Theater opened Wednesday morning
a long line of people were waiting,
many of whom had been there all
night, and some dozen or so of the
most enthusiastic women and mati
nee girls had been there nearly the
entire day before. No better proof
of the immense popularity of Mana
ger Baker's Stock Companies with
the people of Portland could be found
than this. An entirely new organiza
tion, has been announced all new
faces and names, (all with the ex
ception of Alice Fleming and William
Bernard) never been heard of before
by the greatest majority of local
playgoers. These two familiar names
would do much we are sure, but it
is very doubtful if they alone would
be enough to attract as long a line of
seat-buyers as is found at the open
ing of the sale for the -biggest Stars
. of the country when they appear here.
; No. It is simply the confidence, won
; by long years of earnest endeavor by
j Geo. L. Baker, from the theater going
i public of this city, and from all fore
: casts he is now in line for the big
! gest and most successful season he has
ever known. Today the new com-
Pany will make its initial bow on the
tage of the Baker the opening bill
place at a post in Kansas. The big
action is in old San Francisco, along
the famous Barbary Coast, and the
plot deals with the tracking down of
a supposed murderer by a young wom
an detective. , There will be a mat
inee every Sunday, Wednesday as
Saturday at the Baker this seain,
and the immensely successful Bar
gain Nights will be given every Mon
day. These, with the already low
prices announced should do much to
wards insuring a highly successful
financial season for the Baker Play
ers. HOP CROP SUFFERS
SEVERELY FROM MOLD
In the hopyards of this state, and in
California a"s well, the weather' is still
a serious disturbing factor. The in
dications now are that the damage to
the Oregon crop by mold will be con
siderably more extensive UTan was
thought possible a few weeks ago,
and this to a great extent is attribut
able to recent unfavorable weaher,
Failure on the part of some growers
to spray their vines propedly also gave
the vermin a chance to get in their
j work and in that way contributed to
I the injury of the crop.
For the most part the growers op
eraling Targe yards took the best pos
sible care of the vines, and In these
yards generally the crop is reported
to be coming down in good shape and
with a yield even greater tham was
anticipated. In a number of fields, not
ably where the crop was covered by
low price contracts, the growers this
year naturally were less interested in
the crop than would other wise have
been the case and there neglect was
more or less general, with moldy hops
as the inevitable result.
A number of such' yards are already
reported to have been abandoned by

Flue Range heats six griddles without heating the oven; the oven

Mr. Frank Herron of New York will be here to demonstrate the
Laurel Range. Be sure and come and try a biscuit baked in
three minutes in a Laurel Range which is not attached to a

We'll also explain why a Laural Range takes one-third less fuel

L. ADAMS Oregon City's Big Department Store
the growers, the crops, under their
contracts, being worth' little if any
thing more than the cost of picking,
but reports say that in all probability
speculators will buy up the abandoned
yards, gather the crops and market
them for whatever they will bring.
Such action will of course have a bear
ish effect on the market.
In the 'Salem district the damage to
the crop brought about by the bad
weather appears to be more serious
than in some other parts of the Val
ley. Some of the growers says that
at least 25 per cent of the crop of
that section will be ruined, the rains
there aggravating the injury already
done through mold and making it all
but impossible to get the undamaged
crops under cover in a satisfactory
way.
Picking is being pushed as fast as
pljssiETe in all parts of the valley, but
there has been some rain almost ev
ery day last week, and this has made
the work so unpleasant for the pickers
that many of them have left the fields
and returned to their homes. In
many fields distant from the centers
where pIcTceTT were available, the
growers started the harvest with short
forces and have been working short
handed all the week.
In California similarly unfavorable
conditions are reported, the heaviest
rains ever known at this time of the
year having fallen this week in some
of tne leading hop producing districts
of that state. In the Sonoma section
it is said that a very large" portion af
the vines are down as a consequence
of the unusual storms. New York al
so reports unfavorable weather, with
the estimates of the yields of that
state reduced as a result.
