Judge . J. II. Logan, then (at ?. the time of the discovery)' of "Santa Cruz, -Cl., and now of Oakland, Cal., 'Who will .reach his 86th year In ; the eoniing December. The tellins of the story by Judge Logan was printed in .the Slogan number -of The Statesman' at that time, and that article ws the one used by the Literary Digest. ' Reduced to the ..greatest possible- brevity, the 'tory- is as follows: i Judge Logan was making some experiments fn his garden 'at ' Sianta Cruxf the Literary Digest article erroneously says it was at Oakland!, with the idoa of pro ducing an, Improved strain of gar den blackberry. This; he did by; crossing the lrtcal wild , berry, j whose flavor he had,r always ad; mired, with the Texas Karly tor AuglnbauKh). a cultivated black- j berry.. Rut he bad also planted 6ome? Red Antwerp raspberries In the same garden, vand his exporl- winnts' in cross-fertilization pro duced an" entirely unexpected result. ' : - , ; . So the discovery was accidental. jThls was lu 1SS1. . ( . : ' It was . something absolutely new in the Rubus family, and in "all the' 44 years since the logan berry .was dLscovered It has re 'mained absolutely the same, never Tevertlng in .the smallest particu lar to either parent berry, but peeping its own identity. ' ; There have been attempts to Improve upon the loganberry; but they, have all failed. Even,, the great Burbank, the plant wizard, tried ilt, and brenght out the Phenomenal, which had - some vogue in the beginning; but time proved the loganberry to be sup erior in many ways, y ' Great tt Hush Fruit - The Statesman has told many times of the beginnings of the Industry ; bvre; - the first . plants being brought from California by DrJ.

As penwall. Gervais, a grower with 19 years of experience, the follow ing answer to an iaqufry'jbyj the Slogan editor, and what Mri i As pen wall said then is -good advice for this year, and for . the im mediate future. ? It follows':, i ! ; "Advice to the loganberry grow ers:! jTake an inventory of your self arid your yard arid see. where you stand. If you cannot raise loganb,erries for less, than 6c per pound: you better quit, for you have i( neighbor than can. Under present , conditions I believe that "the market will be below 6c more often 7than it is above, j If you cannot average two tons per acre or more you better take them ;opt and ; iise the space to raises feed for icows and hogs. . Your patch should be in full bearing two years after planting, then : with goodlfcare at the right time, and plenty of cover crops or barnyard I manoxe, it is good for 15 or 20 year Don' try to make your self Relieve that a yard that pro duces! one or one and a half tons per ; icre 1 can compete with one that? Averages three, nor that the cannery man will pay you any morel for your berries because it costs! you more to raise them. Quito the reverse, for quaatity and qaaliiy generally go hand in hand. I bnleye the time is coming soon wheii -we. will be paid according to quality. U should be here now' . . ' '; -' . ; ,' US THIS Yl Got Fifteen Tons 'From Four and a Tenth Acres; Neigh- ' - bors Did Better . W. J. Linfoot, 2100 West Nob Hill, Salem, has a loganberry yard, on route 3, four miles south of the ; Salem city j limits, a mile and a half from Liberty. He has four rind a tenth acres in loganberries! Thiajyear he picked 15 tons of berries j from this patch, and he marketed them through the Pro diicers' Cannirig anTPacklng com pany, being a member of this co operative concern, vllls check' was fr ; $li25. The loganberry pool off the Producers' cannery paid out ajtj five- and tire; eights 6nts , a pbiunfl. t Someof thf berries fur nished by Mr.j Linfoot were sec onds, and these were slightly shaded in price. .' j ' : ' j f Neighbor Did Iletter p . Mr. Linfoot 'phoned that he was too busy to wrfte, but he gave the Slogan editor the above facts over the telephone. ; . He said that last year his log anberry patch yielded nearly the same tonnage but the price was nq so high. Mr. Linfoot has- had the farm on which is the logan berry patch for 16 years. It was formerly the - Roy Ohmart place. The loganberries, were set out four years ago. He had three good crops. . So far, Mr. Lintoot has done no fertllizing. He has the ordinary red, hill land of his district. He takes good care of his loganber ries, however; see that they are well cultivated; He hires all the work done. He has several neigh bors who did as well as he did this year 'in tonhage per acre of loganberries. One neighbor, Mr. Stanton, did better, with five Or six acres. , ;Mr. Linfoot paid on an average acent and a half a poun,d for picking and $2.50 a ton for haul ing. That was. the total expense, except Tor cultivating. j Mr, Linfoot is also a' prune grower.

I j ! H. S. GILE BEUEVESHUWIPHBEY DISPENSEHWIAYPUTJUICE 1 It Transforms One of the Highest Priced of the Fruit Juices, i Into the Most Profitable Orink to the Selier That He Can , Get, and at the SameTime Gives the Public the Finest Fruit Juice Drink That Can Be Made s i ; - - j The Slogan editor found H. S. GHe too busy to answer his-letter asking . for a statement of the loganberry situation up t date. But Mr.'.Gile.. at the Oregon state fair, was willing to talk, and he Was able to demonstrate what was able - to demontrate W' what 'was principally- on his mind. ' This demonstration may be introduced by the following paragraph Which was printed in The Statesman of a week ago Saturday: -. "There will be on display at the state fair. In two places, the Humphrey dispenser;-." They will be operated with loganberry juice." This is a most ingenious device for mixing cold drinks, which are carbonated and then displayed in a most attractive manner., H. S. Gile, in his visit east last summer, watched the operations of ' these devices at Cleveland, Ohio, In the parks; some of them dispensing loganberry, juiee yery much thin ned f with water. These devices, made for the company owning and operating them a guarter of a mfl lion . dollars clear' the past sum mer ; in about 1 Z weeks. There are seven patents. The inventor was Mr. Humphrey of Celeveland, who died a. few years ago. His heirs, are making and operating the , devices now. There is noth ing that .can compared vith these devices in dispensing any kind of a soft drink and there is nothing as good . as - loganberry juice to use in them. It looks like a solution of the proper way to dispose "df bur surplus loganberry Juice. Mr. Gile has the two dis pensers ready for ' us now. But yt will want to see them at the state fair. Words cannot adequa tely describe them. They must be seeri to be appreciated." : " Causing Much Rntliosiasm The, Slogan editor found Mr. Gile at -the booth with one jot these Humphrey, dispensers, yes terday forenoon," with crowds surging around the booth. This one Js near the north side W the new, pavilion', i fronting the main paved roadway. . The other one is near the old pavilion,- close-to the Christian Science booth.' - , Every observing . person f t who sees this dispenser in actidh im mediately -' becomes enthusiastic over it. Every one with vision sees in it the solution for the per manent success of the loganberry industry. - " Mr. Gile said yesterday, that during the early years of the loganberry,' industry " it was im possible to get far with the dis pensers of soft drinks in the sale to thim of loganberry Juice,' be cause of the high price of the Juice and the consequent small profit to the dispenser "But the Humphrey system makes loganberry juice the Imost profitable of all Srinks, to; the dispenser, without exception and at the same time gives the public a pure fruit juice drink, with nothing in it but' loganberry juice, water and sugar; - Biggest of AH Outlet It gives the loganberry a.chance to appeal to ; the biggest outlet there is in this country, , How are more Humphrey dis-pen?er- to be manufactured and marketed? That is the problem. And men of risibn are working on this problem, f Put enough of the dispertsej.i in -trse, - in th4 ! great centers or population, and all the acreage western - Oregon has to devote to loganberry culture will be needed. 4 .4 '.. s Mr. GHe has .three - machines spoken for now,' for this coast, two for California and the other for Oregon. : The original dlspcnre was made by Mr. Humphrey wjth loganberry juice fn mind- The machine is for loganberry -juice, and, logan berry juke is for the nacMne. - Other Outlets Yet " In the Slogan columns of & year ago Mr. Gile was interviewed. Fol lowing are some of the high lights of that interview: .;; . "The grower of ..loganberries must look . back to the years of io and 13 cent prices to locale the trouble which was so - serious in 1&23; j ' ':LjS " -;y "It Was -that period of high prices which killed the promising jam 'arid jelly business, and 'de livered fa staggering blow to the , rapidly " growing Infant juice in- dustry the thing which more than any other must be fostered iff th& growing of loganberries ii to ever have a solid foundation. j "But loganberries are coming into their own and will eventually become thoroughly sta,billzedr be cause they possess merit Can- -ners are doing . much to "hasten that time by increasing their pack of-syrup grades and. hy. packing less of the water grades, -and the person who makes Juice should discard in the future all thought of storing loganberry juice etthef for a short or long period in wood or tin if It is intended to' be used for, beverage purposes. ; f ', "Enormous injury has resulted already to the juice: business, so well started in 1915-16 and 17 by distributing a produclt.whlch would not in any sense measure iup to the .original standard of quality upon which loganberry Juice, was demonstrated and Introduced to the public.
