WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAY 25, 1921 DOUGLAS FIR IS ER Tree is Only False Hemlock, Says Portland Profes sor In Lecture PECK SPEAKS TONIGHT Study of Bird Migration To Be Presented in Address At Library Tbe Douglas fir Is a lier. ac cording to Prof. John A. Lee of Portland, whose delightful lecture at the public library last night on The Cone Bearing Trees of Ore gon"! charmed all who heard. The Douglas fir is only a false hemlock, and not a fir at all. said the . speaker In making the dis tinction. The true fir cone grows upright, and sheds its seed before it falls; whereas. the Doug las pretender does neither, but hangs 'em downward and hang on to 'em like a monkey to a co coanut. ! Many Varieties Known. There are 33 varieties of coni fers In Oregon, that are personal and Intimate acquaintances of the speaker. He has found them all tbe way from sea level up to the tops of the tallest mountains. Four, varieties occur regularly above the normal snow line o' 6500 feet altitude the White Bark pine, the Alaska Cedar, the Alpine fir, and the Mountain hemlock. Mr. Lee is the leader of the Mazamas, the mountaineer) tip club of Portland and the north west,; and Is essentially an out doonunaTi who practically lives in and among the trees he loves. He speaks of trees as most other men speak of sweethearts. Urography Lavished Professor Lee told of one Inter esting Incident In Oregon business that has foisted an untruth onto .the geography of the state. A company that thought it bad a lot of larch Umber to dispose of. named Larch. Mountain along the Columbia highway, partly to ad vertise its company product. Rut in reality it wasn't larch at all it .was Noble fir; so both the wood an,d the mountain are standing monuments to unconscious au dacity. .The lecture was well Illustrated by. slides, which showed accurate ly -the points the speaker wished to bring out. . Bird Picture Tonight. Another lecture along the lint of ,Oregon products Is to be giver tonight at the same place by Prof w; E. Peck of WlllameUe univer sity, recognised as a national au thority on natural history. H will present "Oar Birds, at Home and Abroad," partially a study of bird migration and partly a gen eral outline of .Oregon bird life It' will be; illustrated partly by thf splendid pictures of R. Bruce Horsfall of Portland, now being exhibited in the hall, and partly by Prof essor 1 Peck's collection of .bird skins that will jihow the ac tual birds minus only the life that rafcde them move. An Invitation If extended to everyone to attend. The HorsTall pictures will be on exhibition from 2 to 5 every da this week, and from 7 untltl 10 every evening. They are well .worth seeing.

The? will furnish all the material, d al the connecting, and turn thf Job over to the park without even asking for thanks all In the name of their honored craft.

' Nobody Is talking price however. There Isn't a slngb whisper about what the year' product Is go'ng to be worth- but there I no doubt that there wil' be a crop sell, whatever the price. Packers who have been inter viewed say that several kinds of fruit will cme close to a full nor mat production. Apples especial ly art looking well, and It is be lieved will yield at least double last year's crop. In general, the O 7AVA 7AVdVAYW O 9 aS fcj , See the 3 Husk in' Bee Band "The County Fair" 7A9AVAVAVA VAVi Q HI Oregon apple crop is said to prom ise a bumper yield. I'eMs Are Fought. From thoe sale of sprayers this spring, good hrticulturistg expect this year's crop to be of excep tional superiority so far as insect ppsts go. The prices promise to be none too high, but even so the growers are netting resolutely to sive and remake the fruit-grow-iiig industry following the ter rible winter of ll!-2 and th disastrous prices of the past sea son. A visit to some of the packing houses brings out the fact that tbe fruit grower of the far north west has been practically exclud ed from the middle states market by the high freight rates that have prevailed. Fruit that can be shipped to the Atlantic seaboird by water, goes cheaply enough, but the rail haul to the interior has left the Mississippi valley to pay such high prices that it has done without fruit, or encouraged the growing of inferior stuff near er home, to the detriment of tho northwest grower. Reduction Welcomed The report of a 20 per cent cut in freight rates, announced yes terday, will be exceptionally wel come news to the northwestern fruit grower. Indeed, hardly an other industry has been as effect ive in getting the rates lowered is the fruit growers; for the re duction means for them to live, ind t leave them at the peak means for the fruit expert bus! teas practically to die of strangu ation. The change comes in time to afreet all the fruit still unsold, joth the canned fruit yet in stock ind the fresh fruit now almost ready to market. The canneries are preparing foi their usual season run. but have authorized no statement as to the quantity, price, or other condi tions for this season's pack. Wag s are expected to fail consider ably from last year's schedule though perhaps not in the sanif ratio as farm and perhaps some other lines of work. The canner ies have been paying up to 50 cents an hour, with time and a half for overtime, so that a can aery Job for many of the depart ments meant silk shirts, silk socks. furp and flivvers for the employ as. Flivvers will have to sell at loren. prices this year, to be with in the reach of farm and cannery workers, it is predicted. Re IT lea Coming On Strawberries and gooseberries ihould be ready for canning, with in the next two weeks at the lat est.' Some few local berries arc Already being picked for home use though not enough have ripened 'o 'make a really marketable oroduct. But another week will tee them clamoring for a big mar ket and by that time the can aeries may have the big story tr tell of what they want and what he can sell It for and how much hey can pay.
