A FRUIT GROWERS UNION.
CALL HAS BEEN Issued for a meeting of Coos Bay fruit growers
to be held In the Chamber of Commerce In Marshfleld, Saturday
mnrnini. .Tnnimrv 1 fi. Tlila la n matter of real Importance not
on y to the fruit growers but to every one Interested In the development
of the varied resources of Coos county. There has been some complaint
among the apple growers that the prices realized for the products of
their orchards were not sufficient to warrant any particular effort being
made to Improve conditions. There Is some justice In the complaint of
low prices but the fruit growers are themselves responsible. It Is only
within the past year or two that any attention has been given to the
proper development of orchard products either In quantity or quality.
When urged or compelled by the fruit inspection law to prune, spray
and otherwise to care for his orchard the fruit grower will promptly
reply that at present prices on Coo? Bay It does not pay. This is no
reason, however, to abandon hopa and go along in the same old rut leav
ing trees uncared for and deteriorate until almost worthless. There is
a remedy and one that iseasily applied. Form a strong fruit groue.-s
u-nlon, develop the orchard into good condition, producing first-class, fine
flavored fruit and then the union will bo able to increase the price of
apples. The Hood River union has within four years raised the price
of Spltzenberg apples from 85 cents per box to $3.15 and yellow New
towns to $2.50. Coos Bay fruit growors may not equal this but with a
union and proper care and attontlon they can advance prices until there
will be a handsome profit in the business. The Gravenstein and King ap
ples offer a most excellent field of effort for Coos county fruit growers
to develop an apple market of their own and the results that would
follow Intelligent and concerted action would prove surprising.
There are some fruit growers so blind to their own interests that
they look Indifferently upon the formation of a union and think It would
be usoless. If these men could hav heard the comments of a recent vis
itor on Coos Bay who came here to secure an orchard they might get
a different view. This man who 13 an experienced fruit grower said:
"What Is the use of buying fruit land here? What fruit trees you have
are not cared for. No price for what apples you do raise and you have
not energy enough to form a union. I can buy land as cheaply where
they have live unions as I fin hero with the advantage of a good mar
ket for ovorythlng I raise at good prices and a live progressive commu
nity in which to live."
This is the view of an exp rlenced fruit grower froni outside and
should be studied by local orchard owners . A strong union will not only
develop quality but will also Increase the quantity so that the Coos Bay
market will attract buyers from abroad and the advance In prices will
:be immediate.
ThlB is an ago of centralization and organization. Strangers base their
estimate of a community largely on the spirit of unity and progress
that Is evident in the efforts to advanco local interests.
Coos Bay has an excellent example In the benefits and advantages of
organization in its cooparatlve creamery. Contrast the difference be
tween tho ranchers on Coos River before the establishment of the cream
ory"and what it is today. The same splendid results will follow tho or
ganization of a fruit growers union.
Wake up!
Organize!
SUPER-SENSITIVE SOULS.
THERE ARE, on Coos Bay, as In other lively communities, men who
aro super-sonsltivo about newspaper comment. They are always
glad of the friendly paragraph or story in which they figure, how
ever much they may, by way of mock-modesty, deprecate the public
monUon; they are rarely averse to the pleasant note and comment In
which thoy or theirs ar paraded In kindly fashion, and there have- been
instances of real gratitude, felt and expressed, for tho saving grace of tho
public-prints when sonio of the gravor episodes of life have confronted
thorn. But, onco hale a man within the range of newspaper criticism,
direct, or Implied, and ho grows vonomous with hate and incoherent
with rago at tho liberty taken with h is name or relation to the matter
under review.
It is ono of tho farces of life, and the newspaperman has a grim ap
preciation of It that verges near the mark of contompt when ho scans
hla general treatment of men anil finds thorn so helplessly and hopelessly
childish. For bo It known, that In all tho relations a paper assumes
with Its reading patronage, the porsonal equation Is tho ono most relig
iously obsorved at all times; mistakes will ofton occur; but In tho main
thoy aro caught on tho long lino of careful scrutiny that pervades a
newspaper office and boforo thoy ar o uttered In cold black and white.
There Is justification of sonio kind b ohlnd overy personal mention and al
lusion In a responsible nowspapor. This must bo remembered at all
tlmos, In justlco to tho public, tho p erson, and tho paper.
Thoro la ono way of suppressing t ho super-sensitive soul who cannot
stand tho counter-point of journal! stic animadversion, and that is to
liar all mention of him under any a nil all circumstances; this is a cruelty
coltlom resorted to, but always avail ablo; and ofton as editors and re
porters aro tempted to uso It, they, as ofton, refuse to probe, Or Hatter,
tho vanity, that has brought tho I ml Ividual undor such contemplation.
Tho papor Is a croatlon of n day, a nd In Its absorbing processes and
high duties, It raioly stoops to th o pitiful alternative, choosing tho
plcasantor task of forgetting.

After other folks have quit.
Laying It as a companion
On tho pillow by your head
When you really should forget It
As you nestle down In bed.
Worrying, dear little children.
Will not get you anywhere.
Nor will It tho paces quicken
Of tho staid and ancient mare.
It, when you linvo missed connections,
Will not make the train delay.
Nor win It the bill collector
From the doorstep chaso away.
Worrying won't buy the baby
Shoes to warm Its llttlo feet.
Worrying will never purchase
A Buppiy of things to eat.
Worrying will not unaided
Prove a remedy for corns.
Nor present you a dilemma
Minus such a thing as horns.
Nor can worrying exactly

Thoro are other Joys that truly

But perhaps, defending worry,
Vou may nrgue It Is cheap.
