Edward L. Barton, 1247 Mallorj
Avenue, Performs Unique
Grafting Operations.
BUYERS TO VISIT GAMP
DNETREE PRODUCES
Experimenting with tire climatic
conditions of Oregon as a suitable
state for raising varieties of fruit
has been higniy successful in the
case of Edward L. Barton, who lives
at 1247 Mallory avenue, if his
achievement with a Hungarijn prune
tree can be taken as any indication.
A few years ago Mr. Barton con
ceived the idea of gratfing a little
variety on his tree, for as is always
the case it is impossible to supply
the family table with a variety of
orchard products from one lone tree
in a back yard. .
First Graft Is Success.
Jlr. Barton first selected a twig
of a Petite prune tree and after
carefully digesting the pages of sev
eral highly scientific orchard maga
zines and the encyclopedia he per
formed the first grafting operation
on the Hungarian prune tree. His
attempt was a success. The Hun-
garian prune tree thereafter pro
duced Petite prunes as well. The
success of the first operation en
couraged experimentation with an
other distinctive brand of prune and
the twig of an Italian prune tree
was next annexed to the family tree.
Likewise successful was the second
experiment and as a .result the
skillful surgeon of trees began an
exhaustive search into new fields of
endeavor.
Plums have been considered as a
hardy fruit and, feeling the need of
a few plums on the dining table to
add a new note to the variety of
the fruit dish, Mr. Barton operated
again and this time a Blue Damson
plum twig began to grow and pro
duce the desired result. Then fol
lowed in quick success the annexa
tion of a Columbia plum twig and a
peach plum, both of which grew and
began to bear fruit.
Apricot Next Tried.
The fields of research among the
.prunes and plums having been ex
hausted to the satisfaction of the
embryo-orchardist, he began to seek
more varieties. A branch of an apri
cot tree was transferred to the Hun
garian prune tree, or what was the
Hungarian prune tree in the begin
ning, and apricots began to find
their place with the prunes and
plums in the family fruit cupboard.
But a trial with peaches was not
successful. A twig from a peach
tree was grafted on the old faithful
prune tree, but it withered' and died
without bearing fruit.
yal Anno cherries next caught
the. eye of Mr. Barton and he re
solved to try another experiment.
The operation was performed and as
a result Mr. Barton has -just reaped
his first harvest of luscious Royal
Anne cherries. With the cherry ex
periment the grafting has ceased for
a time, although Mr. Barton is yet
undecided as to whether or not he
should cease his operations of at
tempting to find new varieties from
the family orchard, which began
with one lonely prune tree.
Just 14 years ago the Hungarian
prune tree was planted In the rear
yard of the Banton home and now
eight varieties of fruits are pro
duced from its branches. The pos
sibilities are immense if we are to
take Mr. Barton's experiment for it,
for one lone tree may someday sup
lily the family with the season's
fruit.
WILD WEST SHOW TO BE
FEATURE OF WEEK.
Reception, Ball, Fashion Show, ;
Vaudeville and Trips to En
tertain Guests. ,
A typical minim? camp with its
bar, gambling devices and other fea- j
tures will be reconstructed at the
municipal auditorium as a feature
of the entertainment of the visiting
buyers during Portland buyers' week
August 7 to 12, according to tenta- ;
tive plans announced by E. X. j
Weinbaum. R. L. Brackett has
been placed in charge of the
committee to arrange this feature,
to be known as "Roaring camp."
Other features of the week will be I
a reception, and grand ball at the ;
Multnomah hotel, a fashion show j
and grand vaudeville programme at :
the auditorium, sight-seeing trips
and a river excursion. Special com
mittees have been placed in charge :
of all these different events.
Mr. Weinbaum said word has been
received from buyers as far east, as
Arkansas, as far south as southern
California and as far north as Alaska
of their intention to come. This, he ;
said. Is a tribute to the fact that i
Portland is becoming recognized as ;
a market throughout the country, i
Mr. Weinbaum said there were more
than 1600 buyers in attendance at
buyers' week last year and that I
there is every indication that this J
number will be greatly surpassed
this year. .
Portland is said to be the only j
city on the coast which has not
changed its policy of making a
round trip fare refund to buyers !
who make purchases of $500 or over. j
mis policy was inaugurated nere
with the inception of buyers week
in 1912 and is still in, vogue in spite
cf the increase in the cost of trans
portation since that time.

BRICK OUTPUT RESUMED
Old-Time Resident Returns to
Help Rebuilt Prineville.
PRINEVILLE, Or., July 20.
(Special.) The first kiln of brick
to be made in Prineville for more
than -20 years was fired Monday
morning by W. F. Hardin, recently
of Goldendale, Wash., who returned
here a month ago to help in the re
building of the town for which he
burned brick more than a score of
years ago.. . The present kiln has a
total of 75,0-Ofl brick, but the next
one will be larger. The plant is a
small one with a daily capacity of
20,000 brick, and, it is being operated
only to half capacity at present,
owing to a shortage of skilled labor.
Mr. Hardin found his return to
Prineville like an awakening from
a dream. With prospects for oil
promising, with irrigated lands
producing rare crops of alfalfa, with
gold mines shipping ore and mills
already to begin sawing the vast
"sources of timber tributary to this
city, Mr.- Hardin finds the future
outlook much brighter than when
he formerly lived here.

UNION PACIFIC SYSTEM
A Great Industrial Worker
Theri isn't any doubt about the de
pendability, adaptability, efficiency of
economy of the Fordson Tractor.
These things have all been proved by
the most severe tests on farms all
over the country where more than
170,000 of them are in daily use. '
Light, easy to handle and operate in
small spaces, there is absolutely no
doubt about , the practicability of the
Fordson for industrial uses. This has
, been proved by manufacturers in most
every line, construction and excavating
engineers, cementing contractors, coal
and building supply concerns, street
and road building contractors, cities,
towns and villages.
You can undoubtedly apply a Fordson
to your line of business. Let's talk
it over. It will interest yon to get all
the details.' -

The people of this country, through an act of congress, signed by. President Wilson,
established a tribunal to decide such disputes over wages and working conditions, which

the shop crafts are striking.
"Regardless of any question of the right of the men to strike, the men who take
the strikers' places are merely accepting the wages and working conditions prescribed .
by a government -tribunal and are performing a public service. They are not accept
ing the wages and working conditions which an employer is trying to impose. FOR
THIS REASON PUBLIC SENTIMENT AND FULL GOVERNMENT POWER WILL
PROTECT THE MEN WHO REMAIN IN THEIR POSITIONS AND THE NEW
MEN WHO MAY COME IN." ,
