THJ2 OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, THURSDAY, JULY 5. 1918. 13 - GIRLS AND WOMEN HELD RESPONSIBLE ; FOR SAVING CROPS Hundred of Hahdi Needed 1o Gather Fruit Crops; Easy Work and Good Pay. Upon th thouldari'ef th girl and th woman of ortland and it Tidnlty hu bn placed th a aVln- of.th blackberry and prut), crops of th Willamette valley. Thar ar no men to pick toe. fruit, there is fro other help available. Unlea the girl and women of Portland answer th call .that baa been sent out by J. w. Brewer, farm labor apeclaUet of the de partment ox agriculture, loouunu 01 dollar will be lost by th fruitgrowers and thousand of dollars' worth of food will b lost at a time when fruit 1 badly needed. ' Mabet B. Plowman. S21 .Jefferson street, ha been working withgirls and women la chart of picking squads all all summer, and sh claim, they are a efficient as men, or. even more so. She .asserts they can make more money in this way than in any other; that the work is net hard ; that it is an oppor tunity as well as a duty. Just now 100 girls are needed in the Newberg district to pick blackberries. Four camps are to be established, with 23 in each camp. Three cent a pound is paid for picking blackberries and picker with experience can gather 200 pounds a day. One with little or no ex perience can pick 100 pounds easily. And prune pleking pays even better, with the crop following hard upon the , berries. , This fruit is needed by -the government, first of all. to make Jam for the soldiers. Some fruit must be furnished the men In service, and none better than Oregon blackberries Is to be found anywhere. In camp the girls have a supervisor and a cook for each division of 25. Tents are furnished, beds provided and at) the girl has to bring with her 14 her bedding. Board is at th rat of 60 cents a day. "Girls can find here a method of serv ing their country." says Mrs. Plowman, "and these who have been wishing they wer men to help wtn the war can find something t do right at home, with none of the discomforts attendant upon th life of a soldier, and with splendid remuneration. "Many of the girls who ar aiding In th work ar doing so from a sense of duty rather than for the money they earn, but the work affords a fine chance for both. v "Th girls make splendid workers. None better could b obtained. But we need more of them ; many mor of them. ; In the Newberg district 100 must be , put to work If the berries ar to be , savea, ana Lebanon needs as many more. Many fruitgrowers hav told m their crops will be a total loss unless girl com to their aid. We must hav girls and women if the fruit crop of the Willamette valley Is to b saved." MRS.
