pickers will receive cents per box,
with 'a bonus of 2 cents for staying
the entire season, optional with the
individual growers.
Kiln keepers will receive $5 per day
while common labor will be paid $3
per day. A price of $10 per ton will
be charged for drying.
The prices announced are about 80
per cent of those of last year.,. The
charge for drying is just half what
was charged last season.
Prune growers as a whole are sat
isfied with the result of the sale of
last year's crop, despite the fact that
little money was raised. This was
largely due to the fact that the har
vest was handled under war prices
for labor and material, and the crop
sold under peace-time prices.

Volga Valley From Caspian Sea
Northward Is Declared to lie
Most Acute Sufferer.
WASHINGTON. D. C Aug. 2. Gen
eral decadence or agriculture, decay
of transportation and a decrease of
Industry in general of more than 90
per cent of the pre-war output were
held responsible tonight by Secretary
Hoover for the food shortage in
Russia.
The most acute famine area, he
Bald, In a statement describing the
economic situation there, covers the
Volga valley from the Caspian sea
northward. The drought there, he
added, would not be so fatal were it
not for the reduction In the surplus
crops in other regions and the diffi
culties of transportation of such
surpluses as do exist. He cited
reports showing the reduction of
acreage under cultivation, varying
from 100 per cent in the province of
Kazan to only 68 per cent in Samara
Of the acreage cultivated last spring.
Farm Production Drops.
"Overshadowing such local situa
tions there has been a steady decline
In agricultural production," Mr.
Hoover said, "since the revolution,
owing to the lack of incentive to
farmers to provide more than their
own needs, to the shortage of seed
and the shortage of implements. The
urban population has produced little
goods to offer in exchange and the
currency depreciation through the
increase of currency issues to over
1,000,000,000,000 of rubles has ren
dered their accumulation no attrac
tion. "Russia, before even last year's
harvest, had declined from a state
producing from 6,000.000 to 10,000,000
tons of food for export to a condition
where there was such an insufficient
supply of food for the cities that the
urban population has been reduced
by about one-half.
Grain Condition Discussed.
An Indicating the demolished grain
crop in 1921, Mr. Hoover cltedi the
quantities estimated to be requisi
tioned for taxes by the soviet gov
ernment, showing for all soviet Rus
sia, except the Ukraine and Turke
stan, 4,320,000 tons of grain, as
against 7,614,000 requisitioned in 1920,
while the potatoes estimated for
requisition totaled l.OSO.000 tons as
compared with 2,016.000 last year, and
216,000 tons of oil seeds against 432,
000 in 1920.
"The decadence In fat production,"
he continued, "is even more general
and more acute than breadstuffs ow
ing to the requisition of animals and
the diversion of animal feeds to
breadstuffs. Consequently children
are suffering more, acutely in many
sections than adults."
Mr. Hoover showed a decrease of
railway motive power from 60 to 70
resulting from a reduction from 19,
106 locomotives before the war to
from 6500 to 7650 now in working
order, while serviceable cars de
creased by from 48 to 70 per cent of
the pre-war number. Roadbeds, he
declared were reported in bad con
dition. Furl Situation Serious.
The fuel situation he described! as
"very serious," with cessation of pro
duction of coal by 80 per cent and
the deterioration of the m ln.es forc
ing railroads to depend much more
on wood.
Tabulating the percentages of In
dustrial production during 1920 as
compared with the pre-war output,
he showed the largest outputs, of 20
per cent, were in coal production and
the paper lrwlustry. They ranged
down to .6 per cent in copper ore out
of 13 Industries.
Some stimulation to Imports, he as
serted, has been given by shipment of
the former bank reserves of gold but
the total imports from April 1 to May
15 were less than 4 per cent of the
pre-war average while exports for
. April were 1-20 of 1 per cent of the
same pre-war period.
"Recent reports as to Instructions
iriven to foreign agents of the Rus
sian government," he concluded, "in
dicate the practical exhaustion of
gold and consequent reduction of
foreign purchases.

Practically every buyer radiated
optimism yesterday. There was Har

ample, executive officer of a large
mercantile - firm, which owns the
largest fruit orchard in the state o
Idaho. He said the. crop is absolutely

Portland Market Preferred.
A. Ruppreck of Yoncalla, Southern

with his wife after having visited Se

in buying where his dollar would
bring him most and if he could hav
done better in the Puget sound city he
would have ordered his goods there.
But he found more advantageous mar
kets here and his section of the state,
he said, was humming and prosperous
Business was about to set a new strid

creased demands sure to come.
M. Beck and son of Hubbard. Or.
were also optimistic. The Becks op
erate a sawmill property and the
younger man is rebuilding a store
which he will open with a new stock
soon. He said the time seemed rip

for it.

Furniture houses were showing big
sales to the trade yesterday, but ac

"Farmer" Smith Tells Housewives'
Council Members Can Overcome
Profiteering by Boycott.
Roll your own rolls and bake your
own bread this was the solution, of
the bread problem suggested by C. L.
( Farmer ) Smith, Agriculturist of
the Union Pacific system, speaking
at the housewives' council in the
story room of the library yesterday
afternoon.
Mr. Smith said that the price of
flour of late had declined 33 1-3 per
cent, but that no reduction of bread
prices had been made by the bakers.
He estimated that bread could be
made in the home by the housewives
at one-third the cost of buying bread
at present prices from bakers.
A baker in the back of the audience
informed Mr. Smith that the bakeries
of the city had red-uced the wages
of their workmen 10 per cent without
making a reduction in bread prices.
The Dread' made in the home is
more nutritious end palatable than
the baker's loaf, was the declaration
of Mr. Smith. He charged the bakers
with being niggardly with their use
of milk and sugar in making their
bread and said that they likewise
often used a lower grade of flour.
The speaker suggested that a cam
paign of encouraging housewives of
the city to make their own bread, and
teaching those who did not know
how, be conducted by the council.

phare of the study of the bread prob
