Almost beyond belief aro tho prices received for the Cornice pears shipped to New York from tho or chards near Medford, and from the Wallace orchard, near Salem. Half boxes, containing only forty or fifty pears selling for $4.20 to 10 cents a 'pear wholesale, and this for whole carloads, not just sample boxes. The Bartlett, the finest canning pear that Is grown, grows to perfection and will be a source of great wealth In tho future. Selling to the cannery at $20 to $40 per ton and yielding 3 to 10 tons per acre, It ls easy to see a good profit. Tho cherry, like the pear, seems peculiarly at homo in Oregon. They have a size and flavor here, unequaled by any other region. Many of our best varieties have originated in Ore gon, such as tho Blng, Lambert and Black Republican. These are all splendid shipping cherries, and in refrigerator cat'3 can be sent all over the United States. A very largo acreage is being planted around The Dalles, and this point will probably lead in shipments of fresh cherries. ' Office over Flanagan & Bennett Bank. Marshfleld, ....

ALBERT AREL, our output will increase by leaps aimi bounds each year and In a very tfew years should roach tho value of SO.OpO.OOO. Tho apple will, of course, always lie king of fruits, and the acreago will perhaps equal that of all other tree fruits combined. Tho most Im purtant centers of apple-growing at tXia present titno aro Hood River val "loy. iMosler Valloy, Kogito River val ley around Medford and Central .iVoInt. tho Grande Hondo valley near ILa Grande, the llttlo Walla Walla Twillcy, near Milton and Freowater, -amd numerous poIntB in tho Wlllam ta.to valley. But thero aro hundreds jaf other localities equally good and an!y needing tho enterprising fruit jsrowor to develop them. So generous has Nuturo been to Orogon in her gifts of soil and cll inato that nil tho fruits of tho tom jpcraUi zone can bo grown successful ly almost an) whero. Tho success do jioiuls upon the man far lttoro than tho locality. Every citizen of Oro Eoh knows that tho Hood River Splt :&onl i ri; Is tho highest priced applo in h. Now York tnurkotB and that ftho Roguo River Yellow Nowton brings tho most money In London and Berlin, outselling tho California 2e.ton nlmost two to ono. A market for Orogon apples is ho ling developed across tho Pacific, fov bj1 'luuisand boxes being sent un Kiiuiily to Vladivostok. As tho Asiat ic people gradually acquire- tho abll ty to buy theto will be an unllmltod sarket for our fruitb over thoro. The prune- rank. next tho npplo Ub vuluo of output.

Recently, however, plantings have beon very heavy around Medford, Merlin, Roseburg, Thc Dalles, and in many places in tho Wlllatuctto valloy. Tho homo markets wero generally suppfled this year, many wore exported, and largo quantities sold to tho canneries. Canned peaches, always regarded as a luxury, will soon bo ono of tho stnplo products In Oregon. Grnpes succeed splendidly along tho Columbia river, from Tho Dalles eastward. Tho Wlllamotto Valloy produces tho American varieties in nbundauco and of tho finest quality. Tho homo markets wero abundantly supplleld this year and several car loads of Concords wore shipped to Seattle. A grapo jttlco factory will pay well, and ono ls very much need ed. Spaco will not admit of a detailed description of each of tho kind of small fruits, but sufllco It to sny they aro all staplo crops and as suro as tho seasons thomsolves. Tho produc tion is only limited by tho help avnll ablo and tho market demand. With tho recout rapid lncrcaso In tho num bor of canneries In tho stato, tho market is provided.
