HIGH PRICES BAR MASSES Secretary of State Board of Horti culture Saya When Applea Oct' Cheaper More Will Be Sold and Profits Will Grow. Over-production of marketable apples In Oregon will never ba a contingency to reckon with, according to H. M. Wil liamson, secretary of tha State Board of Horticulture. In tha course of hla ad dress given Past night at the T. M. C. A. Mr V llllamson aald there la no ground for the fears of some that tha people of thla atata were planting too large an acreage of applea He said that tha foreign market for applea raised In thla atate and other Pacific Coast atatea la grom-mg In large proportions annually, and la bound to increase rapidly. He waa of tha opinion that with the comple tion and operation of the Panama Canal. tha market for apples raised In this sec tion of tha United States will be world wide In extent. Prices Declared Too High. Ws should not expect to get fancy prices for our apples, such aa we have obtained In tha past." aald Mr. William son. "Apples at $1 a box are too high, and. of course, tha demand will be lim ited aa long aa tha price la that Man. Our market In the future must os created among tha middle class. We must, therefore, be content to sen our products at a pries that will ba attrac tive to the masses, and yet give ua rea sonably fair returns. People who earn from $in to tlSOO a year will ba tha ones who will buy our apples. They consti tuts the masses both, In this country and Europe. I am positive we can raise apples In Oregon to aupply that class of people, snd tha returna will ba such as to mska apple-raialng still tha most profitable Jnduatry In Oregon. "Within tha next few yeara. Continen tal Europe and tha English possessions will take all tha apples we can ship, provided ws are satisfied to accept rea sonable prices for ths product-" Many Varieties Possible. Mr. Williamson said It waa a mistake to believe that Spttaenbergs and Tellow KeertBwn Plnnlns were the . only two commercial varieties that should be raiaed. He aald that certain vanetiea grew to better advantage In different dis tricts and that eaoh fruitgrowing district should make a specialty of the. kinds which do best there. For Instance, the Northern Spy does well In the Wll- matte Valley and falls to reacn tne same standard east of the Cascade Mountains. On the other hand, tna win ter Banana, raised at a high altitude and in a dry climate- such as In the district above The Dalles. . glvea better satisfaction than if raiaed on tna west side of the Cascades. The sneaker was of the opinion mat yellow apples were better adapted to the Willamette Valley than red applea Col ored apples, he said, reached the greatest degree of perfection where there were longer periods of sunshine throughout the growing season.

The elevation of Circuit Judge Besn to the Supreme bench has brought forth a swarm of candidates for the of fice of District Attorney as well ss for the office Jndge Bean will vacate Jan uary 1.
