HOW PRUNES ARE GROWN

Substitute, Wanted for Italian Prune

ing: and Packing:.
WASHINGTON, Sept 25. The Depart
"moBt of Agriculture is about to issue a
xepert on prune culture in Western
Berope, with especial reference to exist
ing conditions in the Pacific Northwest.
This report is the work of Professor Ed
ward B. Lake, in charge of the Oregon
Agricultural College, who, at the request
of the department, spent a large part of
the Summer of 1S00 in Europe gathering
data. The department recognized that the
prune Industry of the Pacific Northwest,
while prosper ous, was lacking In several
particulars, and through Professor Lake,
hopes to give some valuable assistance to
prune growers. The following extracts are
niade from Professor Lake's report, es
pecially as showing the shortcomings of
Northwestern prunes, and the merits of
European methods which surpass those
naw practiced In Oregon, Washington and
Idaho:
"The prune Industry is today the fore
most pomological interest of the Pacific
Northwest. Beginning with a few trees
planted by the late Henry Miller, at Mil
waukie. Or., in I860, and a commercial
orchard planted near Portland by Dr. J.
B, Cardweli. in 1S7L the plantings have
Increased until at present there are ap
proximately 50,000 acres of commercial
prune orchards In these three states. The
estimated value of this acreage, with
equipment, is $20,000,000. Of this acreage
at least 2 per cent Is of the variety known
-as Agen, or French, and the remainder,
or S3 per cent, is of the variety known as
the Italian prune, and it is with this lat
ter variety that this report has especially
to deal. There are various other varie
ties grown in small quantities in an experi
mental way in this section, but as yet only
the two above mentioned, together with
a .so-called Silver prune, are of commer
cial importance. This latter variety is
rapidly passing out of commerce; in fact,
the trade journals in 1900, almost to a
unit, did not give quotations on this fruit.
It is generally estimated that a light crop
of prunes for the Pacific Northwest for
the year 1901 would yield approximately
30.803,000 pounds of the evaporated pro
duct, while a full crop would be not less
than three times that amount. On the
basis of the prices received for the crop
of 1SO0, the Petites being Included In the
estimate, an average crop ought to yield
not far from $2,500,000 per year, on a basis
of the present acreage. It is quite prob
able that the income would be much larg
er if all the crop, taking one year with
another, could be saved and the product
put upon the market in a uniformly high
grade style. With the rapid increase in
bearing acreage since 1891-95 there has
fcoen a decided decline in the average mar
ket price of the product. No longer do the
growers receive the large prices 8 and
12 cents per pound that were received
in the decade from 1880 to 1S90; still, the
present prices, which are somewhat high
er than for the past three years (the av
erage being 4 cents per pound for the
crop of Italians of 1900), yield a fair re
muneration. As the marketable output
ias increased and ihe-prlce declined, pro
ducer and dealer alike have turned their
attention to the problems of Improve
ment in quality and extension of markets.
Among the first phases of the subject to
attract their attention have been the -various
problems relating to the proper cur
ing of the crop. The chief difficulty In
the way of Improvement lies not so much
with the methods of curing as with cer
tain rather undesirable characteristics of
the leading variety itself. The climatic
conditions of the Pacific Northwest are
--6h. fehat usually the early Autumn rains
begin, in one section or another, before
the prune crop is more than half harvest
ed, resulting not infrequently in the loss
of much fruit by bursting, as well as re
tarding the work of harvesting and in
creasing the cost of evaporating. The
Italian is also a shy hearer, taking one
year with another, a feature that is prob
ably due, in large measure, to the self
steritity of its pollen, though occasionally
it would seem to be due to the preva
lence of cold, wet weather at the time
of blossoming. In the meantime those who
have been looking for increased market
facilities have ascertained that in some
sections exception Is taken to the cured
fruit of this variety of prune on several
points, viz., toughness of skin, tartness
of flavor, large size of pit, etc. "With
these several objections in mind together
with the Jact that the Italian "has been
found subject to malady --hich manifests
itself in a distortion of the foilage, local
ly callod "curl," which threatens to be
a more or less serious handicap in the
cultivation of this variety, the more pro
gressive growers have been gradually com
ing to the conclusion that a variety other
than the Italian must be found for this
section If the best results with this crop
are to be obtained.
"The Italian has been characterized as
the 'lazy man's tree' because it rarely,
if ever, sets so much fruit that the opera
tion of thinning seems desirable. TVhllc
this quality formerly commended ihp va
riety, growers are now generally express
ing a desire for a more prolific tree which
at the fame time will yield a fruit of the
same type and possess the desirable qual
ities of the Italian.
"With a view to ascertaining whether
there are any European varieties that
possess the desired qualities, or part of
them, and are therefore worth Introducing
into the Pacific Northwest, a study of the
prune industry of France, Germanv and
Austria was made during the Summer of
1000, and the results of the observations
are embodied in the following paragraphs:
The irune industry of France Is about 1000
5'ears eW, anfl with a few exceptions due to
the recant introduction of modern commercial
evaporating and packing plants, it Is carried
on in much the same way today, so far as the
producer is concerned, as it was 400 or more
years &so. "White the Industry is less than
a half century old in America, and great
cnenges have been made in the methods of
producing the cured product. French methods
have remained practically unchanged for cen
turies. To the person familiar with the Pacific
Ooaet orchard areas, France offers a vey dis
appointing field for orchard study. Her or
chards would be called, more properly, fruit
gardens. As such, of course, they are ex
tremely interesting and fraught with lessons to
the American horticulturist, "While it Is true
that one finds an occasional small area planted
to trees In the way that is common in "West
ern America, yet on the whole the orchards of
France are composed of a mixture of planta
tions of fruit trees and shrubs, ornamentals
and other plants.
The soils of the prunegrowing sections of
France. Germany and Austria are widely dif
ferent In their physical and chemical charac
ter. The soil or the districts in which the
prune is profitably cultivated In Southern Ger
many and Xorthwestern Austria resembles very
much the average basaltic loams of "Western
Oregon and "Washington, while the soils of
France generally resemble the soils of the
eastern parts of these two states and portions
of Southern Oregon, though they generally
carry a larger lime content than the Pacific
Coast soils.
In Bohemia are to be seen thousands of acres
of prune orchards planted on the same gen
eral plan as our American orchards, with
these differences: There are no large individ
ual or corporate plantings, and prune trees
are freely planted along the highways, lanes,
boundary lines and about the buildings as well
as in orchards. An occasional single orchard
block may contain 20 acres, and, while this
may appear quite Insignificant to the Jarse
oroaardlst of the Pacific Coast, it Is very dif
ferent from the French type of prune orchard,
wMeh is generally a very irregular and mlx-d
plantation of fruit-hearing trees, shrubs, vines
and other plants.
"With the exception of a quMe limited re
gion, the prune orchards of France are not
planted in blocks or masses. The trees are
set In rows, usually, though frequently there
appears to be no attempt at regularity, and
when in rows thp rows are from 40 to GO feet

planted Elde-oy side, the trees being, approx
imately, 1G to 20 feet apart each way. In the
rows not only are prunes planted, but there
may be cherries, apples, pears, peaches,
quinces, bush fruits, grapes, nuts, osier wil
lows and an occasional ornamental tree. Be
tween the rows of trees are grown the various
cereal, foraire and root crops, or In many In
stances the tract of open land Is a meadow.
The trees are never cultivated for themselves.
Such tillage as the soil receives Is given for
the benefit of the field crops. It must not be
Inferred from this, however, that fruit trees
are never cultivated In France.
The same course Is followed in the German
and Austrian orchards and tree plantations,
consequently the trees of these various sec
tions are generally much smaller than trees
of a corresponding age on the Pacific Coast,
In Europe the universal practice Is to train
orchard trees with high heads, the object being
to let the sun and air have free access to the
ground in order that the cover crop may have
ample opportunity for development. Usually
the trees are headed at a height of from four
to five feet. Little pruning is done, save to
thin out and occasionally to cut back the
young growth If the trees are grown on land
that Is Irrigated. The heads are usually round
to roundish, and generally much smaller than
In the case of Pacific Coast trees of corre
sponding age. The plum tree lives to a good
old age In Europe and frequently is of large
size. The fruit, when properly cured, Is graded
by means of a grader made upon the eame
general plan as the Cunningham grader used
on the Pacific Coast. Each grade is placed in
a separate bin, and after a period of sweating
put through a processing bath, the composition
and method of use of which the packer en
deavors to keep secret. The fruit is then
boxed, racked, -bottled or canned, according to

PORTLAND'S POSITION
By authority of an act of Congress, the Commissioner of Labor is re
quired to investigate annually the municipal statistics of cities having
30,000 population and over. The results for 1900 are reported In a bullettn
of the Department of Labor. Last year's investigation shows that In
everything that goes to make up a city population, relative cost of gov
ernment, school attendance, municipal assets, expenditures for perma
nent public Improvements, vital statistics, etc. Portland is easily the
leading city of the Northwest. The figures are:

quality, appearance and size, as the market
may demand. This feature of the work Is not
unlike the California method of processing and
packing, which is quite unknown In the Pa
cific Northwest, though a beginning along this
line has been made by one or two firms. The
culls from the grading are distilled, sometimes
alone, sometimes together with fresh fruit that
Is considered unfit for the drier.
In many localities, and especially In North
ern Germany, large plants for evaporating,
canning, Drescrvlng, distilling and packing an.
established, and to these the growers sell their
fresh fruit Some of these establishments
have men andteams traveling over the coun
try gathering up the fresh fruit, Somestlmes
the crop is bought on the trees, but more
often after It Is picked.
As to the question of large factories or indi
vidual Fmall evaporators, the more intelligent
European dealers and producers arc advocates
of the plan of having large conserving plant3.
They realize that the large plants can be more
economically handled, can prepare a more uni
form rrade and a greater variety of product,
and are "much better able to cope with the
variable market conditions; a sufficient number
of reasons, evidently, for their view of the
history of the growth of these fruit-food fac
tories (for such they really are) In the Old
"World Is one of much interest to the people
of the Pacific Northwest, and it appears that
It is only a question of time until our grow
ers and dealers must adopt a system similar
to that existing in France and Germany. The
chief objection to the product of the Pacific
Northwest today is that it Is not uniform In
size, quality and pack, and that there Is no
certainty that an order placed and filled sat
isfactorily one year can be duplicated the next
on a large scale. If, for example, the whole
prune croo of the 'Willamette Valley could
pass through one finishing and packing-house,
there Is no question. In view of French and
German experience, that a fairly uniform grade
and quality of product could be put upon the
market from year to year, and that a stable
market rating could be secured for the prune
crop of this section, resulting most benefi
cially to the Industry. The only feature In
which the European plants excel the American
is that of making provision to use all inferior
fruit In the preparation of various secondary
products. If the fruit which comes into the
plant will not make a good evaporated fruit.
then It Is used to make some other form of
fruit product. In this latter respect our com
mercial evaporating plants have a great op
portunity for Improvement.
Of the system of evaporation In France more
may be said, for the reason that the fruit pre
pared by this method brings the highest price
on the European markets, and for the further
reason that a brief discussion of this method
will materially aid our growers in understand
ing what their -present position is In this
phase of the work or the world's prune ln-dustry-
As before stated, the prune of France Is
the Agen, commonly known on the Pacific
Coast as Petite, or French. For the first
part of the ripening period It is allowed to
fall to the ground, and if the weather is
fair it is gathered every two or three days.
Should the weather be foul it is gathered
every day.
As shown by the prices paid at the first mar
kets, as well as by the general appearance
of the fruit itself, the first gatherings are
of an Inferior quality. As the season ad
vances the trees are lightly shaken. The
fruit is gathered in common hand baskets,
usually by women and children, carried or
carted to the building where the drier is lo
cated, and there, without dipping, washing,
or grading In any way, is spread upon the
drying trays. These trays are made of varl
lous shapes, sizes and material. In one good
sized drier that will handle 12 to 20 bushels
per day, may be seen half a dozen styles of
trays varying as to size, shape, and the ma
terial of which they are made. The fruit hav
ing been placed upon the trays at the open
ing of the season. Is put into the oven or
drying chamber, which has been previously
heated to a temperature of 70 deg. C. (158 deg.
F.). The fire or heat is withdrawn at the
time the fruit is put In, the chamber Is
closed tightly, and the fruit left for three
days. During this time the fire is rekin
dled each morning, and when the tempera
ture of the chamber has reached 70 deg. C.
the fire is withdrawn as before. At the end
of the third day the fruit Is removed, the
chamber closed, the fire rekindled or heat re
newed, and the temperature brought up to
the standard. 70 deg. C "While the fruit Is out

it is assorted roughly and the large prunes
are dipped into red wine. All arc then re
placed In the oven, the heat or fire with
drawn, and at the end of 24 hours the fruit
Is again taken from the oven. This time It
Is assorted, all cured fruit being removed
and put 'into baskets, the sizing being done
by eye during the operation. The uncured
fruit Is returned to the chamber and such trays
as may be empty are filled with fresh fruit.
The chamber is then closed, and the process
repeated from day to day until the crop Is
cured.
The one most neglected phase of the prune
Industry is that of packing and packages.
In the marketing of no other fruit or food
product, save possibly the coarser vegetables,
Is so little attention paid to attractive packing
and packages. No less than four-fifths of
the product Is put upon the market In large,
rough boxes or bags, and especially Is this
the case with the smaller sizes of the Eu
ropean prunes and those of the Pacific North
west. A few of the larger packing establish
ments of France, Germany and California use
a moderate amount of taste and a fair quality
of material In their packages, while one or
two French and German firms put upon the
market a limited amount of very fancy pack
ages of choice fruit. On the markets of
the Eastern United States and Europe prunes
are usually handled like peanuts and pota
toes. (Instead of being handled as a pre
pared fruit food, they are treated as a raw
article: exposed to the 'flying dust and dirt
of the market place; shoveled and carted
about Just as on might handle coal, in old
boxes, barrels, sacks or trays. The result is
that as the housewife passes from place to
place making her purchases for the table
the thought of dried prunes for sauce gives
her a feeling of mild disgust, and Justly so.
IN THE NORTHWEST.

If the average curer of prunes on the Pa
cific Coast could see the article as It Is com
monly marketed in the large 'cities he would
feel disrustful of his own senses. Not all
of the evaporated fruit is thus handled, but
a large amount reaches the consumer In
this way. Not alone, the smaller grades,
though certainly a larger per cent of these are
thus sold than of the fancy grades, but some
of the fruit of the 40-50 grade Is sold with
so much dirt upon it that the work of pre
paring It for the table must be as great as
for potatoes. This condition can only be
overcome by adopting a style of package that
will not permit handlers and dealers to foul
the fruit.
There appears to be no reason why this prod
uct under ordinary conditions, providing it is
protected from attack by Insects, will not
keep for two -or three years without serious
deterioration. Certainly there is no reason
why it should not be placed on the market In
such manner as to make it as attractive as
the canned product, which Is the chief com
peting article. "While it -Is possible that
much of the evaporated product is of too low
a grade and quality to warrant even a 'small
additional expense for fancy packing, yet for
all the higher grades and best qualities it
would appear that this is a field worthy of
thorough Investigation by the progressive pack
er and shipper. In the world's markets today
attractive packages count for at least as
much as quality with the majority of buy
ers, and since dried prunes are looked upon
by many as a coarse food, it is the more im
portant that careful attention be given to
their market appearance. The glass Jars,
bottjes and cans In which some of the Bor
deaux packers put up a portion of their fancy
quality prunes, are too expensU-e for the gen
eral market, and yet, thus far. these are the
only packages in which the fruit keeps for
an indefinite period without decreasing in
value through being worm-eaten and sugared.
The great need at present is a cheap, light,
fly and air-proof package.

or perhaps some caller. At last, after
he had waited Imnatlentlv for an hour
or two, a turnkey entered.
Anarchist Ah! When are they going to
hang me?
Turnkey They have decided not to hang
you. ' Your execution might cause excite

would not otherwise be aroused.
Anarchist (gritting his teeth and scat

The dogs. Tell them I glory in my deed.
I'm glad I done It. I'm sorry I couldn't
have made it 10 times worse than I did.
Turnkey No. I have orders not to re

Anarchist (trembling .with rage and con

the reporters know I'm glad I done it?
Turnkey I shan't repeat a word from
you. I've got my orders and I'm going
to obey them. The reporters don't know
that you are here. They haven't learned
your name. They don't know that such,
a person as you exists.
(The anarchist throws three fits in rapid
succession. After he has ceased to writhe
he rises feebly and stares incredulously
for awhile at the turnkey).
Anarchist Well, ain't the mob goin' to
try to lynch me pretty soon?
Turnkey No. There is no mob. The
people have been given to understand that
It was an accident that nobody Is to
blame, and only the secret service officers
and I know that you are responsible for
the outrage.
Anarchist (after moaning sadly for
awhile) This Is barbarous. I want to
make a confession. Send for the reporters.
Turnkey I'm sorry, but I have orders
not to let any of the reporters know
that you are here, and as for your con

A ICentuelcy Belle's Secret.
Toledo Blade.
Louisville, Ky. Miss Georgia Shallcross,
one of Kentucky's most noted society
belles, who died over a year ago, carried
to her grave a secret which has just been
disclosed and has shocked beyond measure
Louisville society. She was the legally
wedded wife of Herman L-. Ward, a Louis
ville lawyer, clubman and society leader.
An investigation of the marriage records
in Jeffersonvllle led to the discovery. In
the brick building occupied by Magistrate
John H. Hause, In Jeffersonvllle, Miss
Shallcrosse, on February 19, 1900, gave her
hand and heart to one who promised, until
Teleased by her, to reveal to no -one that
she had linked her destiny with another's.
He proved true. The Magistrate likewise
kept his word, for he promised the young
woman tliat he should never disclose the
secret. No one else was present at the
wedding.
