CORN, PRUNES AND CRANBERRIES HELP ENRICH FARMERS Splendid Exhibits Made at Land Products Show Ore , gonvCorn in Demand for : Meal Prune Yield Big. Baker County's Display Is Indicative of Varied Re sources of Eastern Oregon Special Days Listed. Corn, cranberries and prunes, a ' most unusual combination of crops, land out prominently at the third annual exhibition of the Manufactur ers' and Land Products Show, which will close its doors next Saturday niht v .... Every county showing; an exhibit v, offers corn as part of the farm crop. True, a few of the displays do not em . phaalze corn, but in counties like. ' Jackson, Doug-las, Baker, Polk, Mor ' row and Wasco the showing- of corn is truly remarkable. In Jackson county ' a number of farmers have produced : large fields of corn, and with excel lent results financially. The Jackson county exhibit is in : chars of D. M. Lowe of Ashland, who ".this year produced' more than 2000 bushel of corn. Since coming- to the land show Mr. Lowe has sold his corn to a Seattle firm for manufacture Into , mel. The buyer from the Milwaukee Grain Elevator company of Seattle, came to Portland, and bought all of Mr. Lowe's corn, with the avowed pur- . pose of mixing It with western corn and producing a new grade of meal. The i buyer says that Jackson county corn 1 richer in food qualities than Is . Nebraska corn, and it makes a whiter meal. In other counties the Seattle buyer Is purchasing corn, in an effort to meet the demand for wheat substi tutes. Clatsop Shows Oranberrlee The best showing of cranberries ever ' made in the state is offered by Clat- op county. ' And, the best of the story lies In the fact that the display is made up of straight commercial berries. Two or three barrels of cranberries from the marshes near Astoria were sent to Jobbers in Portland for use at the show. When the stock was wanted r it was necessary to take, hit or miss. from the boxes on hand, and thus it was that berries with no special selec tion or care were offered as display stock at the auditorium. It Is esti mated (.hat 1000 acres of bog land is available for cranberry culture In Clat sop county. Already plantings have reached full bearing. . The Salem Fruit union offers a re- markable display of prunes. The ' stock is taken from every district I 'whete prunes have been grown suc cessfully commercially. Polk county offers a superior prune, while Douk- laafcas sent fruit very rich In sugar. , The center off the prune industry Is In : Marion county, while Clarke county, Washington, produces largely of the - fruit, marketing through Portland to a large extent. It Is interesting to note that last year the prune crop of Clarke county . and the state of Oregon aggregated 41,000,000 pound of fruit. This im Amense quantity came, from trees on 16,000 acres of land. To produce the l crop and care for it required the labor i of more than 6000 persons. These flg - urea rive an adequate idea of the Im portance of the prune industry. An other fact should be added: Not less . than 10,000 acres of land are producing prune trees which have not reached - the bearing age. In other words, In a few years the prune crop should ag gregate 75,000,000 pounds. Baker Xesoorces Varied . ' At a soil products show It is not ' easy to make adequate representation . of the livestock business, yet Baker county haa made a showing which ' should Interest the men and women who are students of progress. Baker county shows that during the year ISIS, the livestock business of the ; couhty, together with its by-products. . brought $5,600,000 into the channels of business. With few exceptions, this ' figure Is the top In the list of counties - of the state. Baker county shows a wide range of resources. Agriculture gives back an , annual revenue of $2,125,000, and the mining; districts show an output val ued at $3,600,000. The livestock busi nesa has (developed a line of forage ... grasses, which make the best showing of any similar display at the land how. In alfalfa the crop Is shown in all stages, from hay to threshed seed. The. Haines district has developed al falfa culture to a top notch. Red clover and timothy come from Eagle "" valley. The Baker display haa a pa- trlotio touch, in a striking motto and draped flags of the allied nations. Special Bays Announced - Baker county goes pretty strong- In . competition with other counties.

Authority to Distribute Coal From" Utah-Wyoming Mines DEALERS WILL HELP HIM Pern an d in Idaho It ported 30 Fer Cent Greater Than Xst Tear With Ho Increase in Production. Boise. Idaho, Nov. 17. Ex-GoverAr Frank R. Gooding, fuel administrator for Idaho, has asked the federal fuel administrator for authority to dis tribute coal from the mine of Utah and Wyoming to points where it is most needed. If this authority is granted, Administrator Gooding be lieves the threatened coal famine can be averted. In meeting held over the southern part of the state he has discussed the situation with dealers and ha se cured their cooperation in his plans for relieving the situation. Demand for coal In this state is reported to be 80 per cent greater than last year, while only about the average amount has been received during the past six months. Storage by consumers may be partly respons ible, dealers report, but increasea population and larger industrial needs are believed to be the chief reasons for the heavy demand. Dealers In the southern part of the state have accepted without complaint the prioes agreed upon at the confer ence between Administrator Gooding and the Boise dealers, but reports from north Idaho indicate strong opposi tion, men in the coal business com plaining that they cannot remain in business when limited to a gross margin of $1.25 a ton, according to the term of the Boise agreement. Mr. Gooding has gone north to take up the matter with the dealers. Bank Are Merged An important banking deal was closed In Boise this week when the Pacific National and Idaho National banks were merged through the pur chase of a majority of the stock of the Pacific National by David Miller, re cently of Kansas City, and Judge J.

H. Douglas, pro fessor of sociology at Reed college in an address before the Oregon Civic league at the Multnomah hotel, Sat urday afternoon. Conversely, Professor Douglas found his analysis of the European situation that the Kerensky administration in Russia wa overthrown because of failure on the part of the allies to state their war alms, lie believes that promptness on the part of the allies ln formally announcing what they ex pect to get out of the war would con tribute to the vigor with which the conflict Is pressed and advance the date of its termination. "The waging of the war," he said, "is not so much the mechanical ar rangement of gun or the topography of the country upon which the battles are fought as what the people at home think about the war and what they are willing to do for it." Professor Douglas was unable to find, all evidence to the contrary, that the German people ecretly disagree with their leaders as to the Justifica tion of the war and the methods by which It should be carried forward. Railroad Officials At Grays Harbor Aberdeen, Wash., Nov. 17. Harry E. Byram, president of the Milwaukee road, and other official came to the harbor late thl afternoon on a trip of Inspection.

He said thati he has been greatly impressed with the prosperity of the coast, and ay there will be greater prosperity after the war. He says the government j doesn't want control of the railroads, J as it has a big task outside of that, and that the railroads are helping the ' government In every way possible. In fact, the government's interests are the first consideration now, he said, and as to a possible near ending of the war, Mr. Byram would not even make . a guess.
