RETURNS ARE GOOD
FOR STRAWBERRIES
Manager Newton of the White Sal
niiiii I'nlon has about wound up the
strawberry business for the season.
Financial returns have been delayed
because of some ditliculty In making
two collections from business men.
When these pn merits are secured the
balance of the money due growers
will lie Immediately sent out. The
Manager reports returns as follows:
Sales lull', nb.iut 14,(XM crates nt
an average of MIO a crate.
Sales 1U11, about lll.lHM) crates at
an average of f J.!4 a crate.
Sales 1U10, llM) crates at $2.2:1 a
crate.
The prices are net F, . l. White
Salmon. The price this season,
while lower than a year ago, Is rela
tively higher considering market
conditions and the poor quality of
the berry this yt-ar.
WORK STOPPEfTON
MOUNT HOOD ROAD
Work has been stopped, tempora
rily at least, on the automobile road
from the Sandy river across the up
per end of the Hull Hun reserve to
Hood Hlver Valley.
This road Is lelng constructed by
the Forestry Service, with the as
slstance of Portland automobile en
thusiasts. At a recent meeting of
the Portland Water Hoard, however,
Superintendent Dodge declared that
the road would be an avenue where
by parties would go Into t lie reserve
and set tires or contaminate Port
land's water supply. Asa result of
this complaint a halt was called to
the further construction of the road.
and the Forestry Service and Oregon
representatives In Congress will be
asked to prevent further encroach
ment of the public Inside the limits of
the water shed of the city's water
supply.
T. 11. Sherrard, superintendent of
the Hull Hun reserve, appeared be
fore the board with maps and ex
plained what work had already lieen
done on the road am) what was con
templated. The road, lie said, was
designed to connect t he Sandy Itoad
with the Hood Hlver Valley. It
would be a great attraction to
campers and tourists on account of
Its scenic features. About six miles
Is already constructed.
STRANGE FREAKS
FROM APPLE SEEDS
An apple tree Is the result of a
graft from the tree that Is known to
be a producer of a certain kind and
flavor of apples. If the seed were
planted and one relied on It to pro
duce a select grade of fruit the result
would be disappointing, for the rea
son that from the seed the most re
markable varieties will be shown.
Perhaps they will be miserable little
erabapples or misshapen, bitter fruit
or a useless conglomeration. The
seed somehow or other harks back
to Its origin, notwithstanding years
of cultivation. The varieties of ap
pies known today are n result of
careful selection anil constant graft
ing of t he bet ter kind from yeat to
year until the present development
has been attained. Harper's.
WANT ALL APPLE TREES
AT STAYTON DESTROYED
As the old fruit trees around West
Sta.vton, being principally In home
orchards on grain farms neglected
for a score of years, are a menace to
the orchards set out by new settlers,
efforts are being made to have the
Marlon county fruit Inspector take
steps to do a way wit h these old fruit
trees In order to protect the coming
fruit center.

EAGLE CAP CANNOT
RIVAL JOUNT HOOD
Mount Hood's title as tun highest
peak In Oregon Is still clear. Fugle
Cap, reputed to lie the highest moun
tain In Kastern Oregon, Is no rival of
the local peak.
Clyde H. Altchlson, chairman of
the State Kallroad Commission, and
well known In Hood Klver, removed
all doubt In the matter when he
climbed Eagle Cap the last of the
week. ills aneroid barometer
showed Its elevation to he about
9700 feet. Mount Hood's peak tow
ers up ll,2L'r feet.
On the summit of Eagle Cap, In
bottles, are records of two previous
barometer readings, both being close
to what Mr. Altchlson's Instrument
showed. Surveyors also say the ele
vation is only about 10,000 feet. The
climb to the summit Is not difficult,
but It is wonderfully Interesting.
Eagle Cap Is a bub or axis from
which the ridges and canyons that J
form the Wallowa range radiate.

NEGLIGENCE GOSTS
APPLE JROWER S70
An orchardlst lu the Naches valley,
Washington, was recently fined $."i0
and costs, amounting to a total of
more than 70, for failure to cut
blight out of his apple and pear trees
after having been notified to do so
by the horticultural Inspector. The
Instructions of the Inspector were to
cut all Infected branches of apple
trees twelve Inches below Infection,
and to cut all branches of pear trees
thirty-six Inches below the Infection.
It was charged that the orchardlst
failed to do this.
Neighbors who were trying to con
trol fire blight In their orchards tes
tified against the defendant, claim
ing that his Infested trees threatened
their orchards. The case has been
appealed, but In the meantime all
orchardlsts In the Naches valley are
being warned to fight blight vigor
ously. This shows how this disease
is lielng fought In the Pacific North
west.
In connection with this crusade
agalnt blight It has been found that
many js-rsons In thinning pears and
apples use their thinning shears to
cut off blighted twigs. Iustend of
checking the disease, this method
really helps its spread, for the shears
are Infected and carry the bacteria to
sound wood. It is recommended
that separate shears lie used to re
move blighted twigs, and that dlsln
fectants be used after every cut.
SIEG HAS HANDS FULL
ARRANGING FOR MARKETS
A dispatch from the meeting of the
International Apple Shippers Asso
ciation at Chicago says:
Wllmer Sieg of Hood Hlver, Ore.,
and but recently of Milwaukee, was
receiving congratulations on his se
lection as general manager for the
Hood Hlver Apple Growers' I'tiion.
The convention was the first oppor
tunity that Mr. Sleg had to see the
leading apple men of the country all
together since accepting his new po
sition and lie had his hands full talk
ing over their various markets with
them and making various arrange
ments for handling part of the fine
Hood Hlver crop tills season Mr.
Selg Is one of the best known apple
men In the country.
HUCKLEBERRY CROP OF
40,000 GALLONS PICKED
It Is estimated that a Heast 40.000
gallons of huckleberries will be taken
from the patches In the vicinity of
Trout Hake, Wash., this season. The
roads are lined with dust-laden ve
hicles and persons on horseback, all
going for "olalli" or returning from
the fields. Many people from as far
away as Yakima are there for ber
ries. On this side of the river the
crop has also been exceptionally
heavy and many parties have com
blued business and pleasure by
camping out In the huckleberry
patchet.
WENATCHEE'S CROP 5,000
CARS IS NOW ESTIMATED
Five thousand carloads of fruit
will lea ve the Wenateht" Valley this
season. This Is the estimate or liny-
ers, growers and the tireat Northern
Hallroad. This j ear's tpple crop
will be practically double that 'if
last year and ."0 per cent larger than
any previous season. The Increased
acreage Is responsible for the big
gains. The (treat Northern Hallroad
has planned to handle 1'H) carloads of
apples a lay more than twice the
number of any previous year. New
markets have been opened In Cumuli,
Australia mid California this year.
RAIN MATERIALLY
BENEFITS ORCHARDS
Material lieneflt to the local apple
orchards resulted from the two-days
rain which came the last of the week.
Although considerable damage wnt
done to crops lu other parts of the
state, the apple crop was helped by
the abundant moisture. The precip
itation here was four-fifths of an
Inch. This was sufficient to make
up for the slight deficit-ucy of moist
ure previously this season. The rain
coming In an Intermittent drizzle
served to thoroughly soak the ground
and to provide water sufficient to
meet the stratum of moist subsoil.
Tills will tend to Increase the size of
the apples.
