WASCO COUNTY FRUIT.
for the past two or three years Wasco
county apples and strawberries bare at
tracted wide attention, and this has
been due, in a considerable degree, to
the packing and marketing. This sum
mer oar cherries are attracting atten
tion in the attention in the eastern
states. One writer comments particu
larly upon that packing, and suggests
that a Californian had a hand in the
packing. We do not believe a Califor
nian had anything to do with it. But
this illustrates the importance of this
branch of the business. Fruit well
packed will sell for a good price, when
lrait improperly picked and packed will
not sell at any price. The raisers of
peaches In Ohio, Pennsylvania, New
Jersey, and other peach-growing states,
have learned this. Packed in small and
attractive packages, their products are
sold at a profit. Passing through these
regions on the cars, we have seen at the
depots these packages awaiting ship
ment, each email basket neatly covered
with pink mesqnito netting that added
much to the beauty of the fruit and
tempted everyone who saw them to
purchase. Skill and care in some such
devices in packing does much to aid the
sale.
ciow that cur cliemes are finding a
market, why not our grapes, our prunes,
plums and other fruits?
FOURTH OF JULY BOYCOTTED
Just wherein the labor unions of San
.Francisco are going to help themselves
or avenge their supposed grievances
against the United States government
by refusing to have a good time on the
Fourth, we do not see. If the Fourth of
July is good for anything, it is by reason
of the patriotic sentiment it engenders
by recalling the separation from Eng
land, which was the inception of the
national life. The labor unions eeem to
regard the day as oue sacred to the pres-
ent administration, and to feel that b
' refusing to celebrate the present official
will feel hurt. Thev will learn that the
rest of the nation will bang the cannon,
wave the flag, fire the rockets, and snap
the firecrackers just the same; that the
government will continue to govern, and
all-wise men will honor the nation the
more because it is a nation, notwith
standing the pouting labor unions of
Ban Francisco refuse to have a good
time. We wish they would join the
rest of us in the patriotic jubilee; but if
they won't, we are going to have a good
time just the same.
having any peaches vill probably find
them unprofitable for other than local
markets.
Inquiry is still made about shipments
of peach plums, and it may be well to
make carload shipments of this fruit;
but we must take great care in packing.
Th-se prove profitable shippers in other
states, and it is best to settle this year
whether or not our Oregon peach plums
are good for anything. We think they
are. Black republican cherries are in
greater demand than the Royal A nne,
and we do not look for a great decline
in prices. If there is a decline at all, it
will be immediately after July 4th.

The latest report received by the Fruit

aays that cherries eold yesterday in Spo
kane at 75 to 90 cents. Irf Helena an
Butte 75 cents to $1. The shipment of
300 boxes, which were sold in Denver
on the 28ih, contained thirty-two boxes
in which the cherries were considerabl
braised. This was caused by slack pack
ing, as the others of the same lot were
all right. Shippers must be careful and
pack full.
Blackberries are in good demand, an

From 3 to $3.50 will be paid for first ar

Overwork, either physical, or mental
will produce weakness and loss of en
ergy. Too many business or family
cares, overwork in the harvebt field, an
excess of woman's work and worry will
produce months of misery. To prevent
this, the exhausted system should be re
inforced immediately. Dr. J. H.
