Swift MILES RE-NAMED . FOR PRESIDENCY McNary Advises Prone Asso ciation That Government Wants More Fruit The directors or the Wlllamettee Valley Prune association held their annual meeting yesterday afternoon. D. J. Miles was elected president: II. S. Poisal, vice president; W. T. Jenks. secretaty and treasurer. D. M. Crosin and Thomas Moot were elected members of the board. The report of the secretary showed the affairs of the association in good condition. A dividend of 10 per cent was recently declared to the stock holders. The growers were generally opti mistic with regaid to the coming crop ana market conditions. It be ing the sense of the meeting that owing to the fact that the price of labor thla season was going to be at least a third higher than has pre vailed in the past, the maximum sell ing pricfe should be set high enough to absorb the increase. The pick ing price in former years was plac-i ed at 5 or cents a bushel, but this vear it will probably be placed at 8 cents. The secretary presented a letter from Senator Charles L. McNary. from which the following Is an, ex tract: "I am pleased to advise you that the government has promised to en ter the Oregon field this season and acquire a. large quantity of our ex cellent prunes of this yeais crop. They are especially well pleased with the prunes they acquired last year, and the Quatermaster General told me yesterday that he now appreciates their true worth."
