SOUTHERN PRUNES
BRISK
OENUND
Bulk of Abundant Crop Re
ported to Have Been Al
ready Contracted.
BUSINESS SLOW AT SALEM
Growers Secure an Excellent Yield,
but Appear Cn willing to Make
Sales at the Prevailing
Schedule.
SALEM. Aug-. 16. (Special.) Though
the prune market has been open for sev
eral week, very little business has been
done by the packers in this part of the
tate. An active business has been go
ing on In Southern Oregon, however, and
It Is said that the bulk of the crop in
that section has been contracted. The
price offered by the packers is 5 cents a
pound for prunes going from 30 to 35 to
the pound, and a quarter of a cent less
for each additional five prunes required
to make a pound. So far as learned,
this price Is quoted by all the packers,
With the exception that a few purchases
fcave been made at a slightly higher
figure by a dealer doing business in a
small way for one firm in the East.
Growers in this part of the state do
not seem ready to sell, for they decline
to make contracts. Whether they do not
like the price or the terms of the new
contract is not known.
Price System Changed.
The new system of computing the
grade of prunes for the purpose of de
termining the price is materially differ
ent from that which has been In use in
the past. The contract provides for the
payment of S cents for prunes going 30
to 35 to the pound, and a quarter of a
cent less for each additional five prunes
required to make a pound. Prunes go
ing M to fi to the pound would brine
4A cents and those going 45 to 50. which
Is about what an Italian prune crop will
average, would bring 4"4 cents. The price
now quoted would mean about 15 a ton
for crops as they run.
Though packers have joined in framing
a contract to be used by all. they are
not entirely agTeed In Interpreting Its
provisions. It will be noticed that "40
to 45" Includes six numbers if it is In
clusive, and there Is nothing said In the
contract to Indicate whether the first or
last number 1 to be excluded in making
it five. Some of the packers have said
that "40 to 45" means the sizes 41, 42. 43.
44 and 45. the next lower sise beginning
with those counting 46 to the pound. The
difference would be very slight if the
40-45 size Included 40. 41, 42. 43 and 44. but
It Is difference enough to lead to mis
understanding. Disputes Are Avoided.
Under the new contract, when a
grower delivers a load of his fruit, five
or more samples will be drawn from the
bag and the number required to make
a pound will be ascertained, an average
of the five draughts being computed to
determine the size of the prunes In the
load. L'nder the new system a load of
prunes averaging 41 to the pound will
bring exactly the same price as those
averaging 45 to the pound. In recent
year it has been the practice to com
pute a new price for each additional
prune to the pound. The change was
made for the purpose of avoiding dis
putes. Prunegrowers of this vicinity generally
report a very large drop of fruit in the
la-xt ten days, the heavy drop being at
tributed to the dry weather. Because the
trees generally are not heavily loaded
with fruit a very light drop had been
expected, but reports indicate it will be
as heavy as usual at this time of the
year. There are also many reports that
the prunes are smaller than usual at
this season, but this is probably due to
the fact that the season is late. Quite
likely the growing season will lat later
than usual, and by the time the fruit
matures it will be as large as In previous
years. Harvesting generally begins
about September 5 to 8. but this year will
be a week or ten days later.
ENGLISH WOMAN MAKES LIGHT
OF HER TRIP.
Miss Gertrude Benham Has Climbed
200 Snow Peaks and Travels on
Foot to See the Country.
HOOD RIVER. Or., Aug. 16. (Spe
cial.) Miss Gertrude Benham, an Eng
lish woman who has walked over a
good part of the earth's surface, ar
rived at the Mount Jiood Hotel here
vesterday. after having pranced In
from Cloud Cap Inn, apparently as
frerh as a young colt.
Miss Benham enjoys the distinction
cf being the only woman who ever
walked from Hood River to the Inn
and back again, and flouts at the Idea
that she accomplished anything re
markable. The distance from Hood
River to the Inn Is 28 miles. In the last
four of which there Is a raise of 6000
feet. According to the guests at this J
skyscraptng resort who made the trip
in an automobile. she was less
fatigued than any of the party staying
there, and entertained the guests on
the evening of her arrival with an
Interesting narrative of her adventures
on foot In many countries.
Shod in broad-soled shoes and armed
with an alpenstock. Miss Benham left
Hood River Thursday morning at 8
o'clock and reached the Inn at T that
evening, a small handbag, all the lug
gage she carries with her, having been
sent up by the auto. Friday morning
she was ready for the ascent of the
mountain, despite the fact that a high
wind was blowing and that the guide
accompanied her with reluctance. For
several hours they battled with the
wind and Ice. but finally were forced
to turn back when near the summit,
owing to the velocity of the wind,
which the guide told her made It ex
tremely perilous to continue farther.
Descending the mountain. Miss Ben
hair' walked back to Mount Hood post
office, a distance of 14 miles, where
she remained for the night, and yes
terday walked Into Hood River, reach
ing hera at 1 o'clock-
When asked about her trip Miss
Benham said:
"I was very much disappointed at
not belnsr able to reach the top of
Xount Hood. I have walked over a
jrood part of the world and have
climbed over 200 snow-capped peaks,
and this Is my first failure. I think
wa could have made It at that If the
guide had not Insisted on turning: back.
Perhaps he knew best, though. The
wind was ttrrlfic. Mount Hood Is dif
ferent from any other mountain I ever
attempted to climb. The ascent is
very abrupt. The view from it Is
megniflcent.
'Why do I walk? Because I can aee
the country to better advantage. I
have been touring the world on foot
for several years. I was born In Lon
don and first started by tramping
through England. From there I went
to Switzerland and climbed the Mat
terhorn and other snow-capped peaks
In the Alps. Later I went to Asia,
where I also climbed in the Himalayas.
From there I walked over a good part
of Australia, New. .Zealand, Tasmania
and other islands "in the South Pa
cific Tour valley reminds .me con
siderably of the Tasmanian country
on account of your timber and apple
trees. Instead of pine, oak and fir.
there they have the eucalyptus, which
they are clearing from the land and
planting orchards. They are already
growing many thousands of barrels of
apples mere annually -and are ship
ping' them all over the world, except
possibly to America. Last year I spent
walking In Japan and this Summer I
have been in British Columbia. I have
climbed all the snow-capped moun
tains there and almost all of the
others on the Coast. From here I am
going to Mount Shasta, where I will
make my final ascent in America. In
two weeks I expect to sail from San
Francisco for the Hawaiian Islands,
where I will do some mountain climb

ROW 4 MILES TO ODESSA
Landlady of Little Hotel Graciously
Entertains Her Xeighbors From
Pelican Bay Lodge Boys Seek
Big Game In Mountains.
USHLAND, Or., Aug. 16. (Special.)
Reports which reach here from Harrl
man's private hunting and fishing pre
serves at Pelican Bay, 60 miles east of
Ashland, on Klamath Lake, where the
wizard of the railroad world is spending
his Summer vacation with his family,
say that Mr. Harriman is enjoying a par
tial respite from the strenuous life which
the seclusion of his retreat makes pos
sible. A good portion of his time, however, Is
taken up with hearing the reports and
sending out the orders which go to and
from him over the telegraph wire daily
to all parts of the country, a special wire
and a force of telegraphers being a part
of the equipment added to the lodge when
he Is occupying It.
Mr. Harriman goes out rowing and
fishing daily on the bay, and. is reported
to have had fairly good luck angling for
the gamy rainbow trout, which abound
in the .waters of the bay surrounding his
Summer home.
Makes Social Call With His AVlfe.
An amusing Incident is said to have
happened the other day when the railroad
magnate rowed his wife to the resort at
Odessa, four miles from the Lodge. Mrs.
D. M. Griffiths, the very accommodating
landlady of the hotel, spying a strange
boat at the wharf, with an unpretentious,
bespectacled and ' stoopshouidered man
mooring it, hurried down to welcome the
little craft and Its occupants. ' "
Asking the man who he was and what
accommodations were desired, the man
replied:
"My name is Harriman, and we are
neighbors of yours who are living up here
at the Lodge, four miles distant. We
have come to pay a friendly call and to
see your place."
Mrs. Griffiths was equal to the occasion
and welcomed the visitors heartily, as
she does all her guests.
Boys Go After Big Game.
The Harriman boys have been out hunt
ing far back in the Cherry Creek Moun
tains, two days' travel from the Lodge,
guided by a well-known local hunter, Gus
Melhase. and they are fully expected to
secure big game this trip. Last year
they went into the woods with great
eclat and trappings enough to scare all
the game from inhabiting the township
and came back to the Lodge empty-handed.
They are wiser this season and are
believed to be working upon the proper
system to achieve results.
Ashland is furnishing the supplies of
fresh fruits for the Harriman family dur
ing their stay at the Lodge, and supplies
are sent out regularly from here by stage.

SEASOX'S COST FOR SYSTEM
WILL BE $250,000
Plans Being Prepared for the Im
mediate Improvement of High
ways Throughout the County.
MOXTESAXO. Wash., Aug. 16. (Spe
cial.) Chehalis County can now boast of
one of the best systems of public roads
in Washington. By the end of the pres
ent season $250,000 will have been expended
on highways, and the trunk line through
the county to the ocean beach will be In
excellent shape. It is claimed that this
is the only practical automobile route
from the interior to the ocean beach north
of California. The run can be made from
Montesano to the beach, a distance of 36
miles, in a trifle over two hours.
The roads are. well built and what with
gravel and cement there will be a system
nearly perfect. The cost in some parts
of the county is as high as $6732 per mile.
This was the average cost per mile of the
last link of the trunk line through the
county, the Montesano-Aberdeen road,
over which the. first vehicle passed one
year ago this month. This mam trunk
line, when completed, by October 1, will
be 62 miles In length.
There are also numerous branch 'and
short roads, among which are the Kirk

between Cosmopolis and Melbourne, which
Is tVt miles long, and cost for clearing and
grading J18.129, making an average cost
of 238o per mile for a 13-foot roadbed.
There is also being built in the North
River Valley a road, with four-inch
planks nine feet wide. This cost 1000
per mile.
With all this expenditure the era of
road building has scarcely more than be

roads and in improvement of those al
