It's not regaraea as respectful to doubt the word of a good wom an out in Arizona, but it seems There was a suggestion in a former blackberry Slogan number of The Statesman , that the Evergreen blackberry ought to be named the "Oregon blackberry," and that it should be bo known in commerce.

It has develoned into ' onet)f the great berries of commerce. Like the loganberry, V i$was ah accident. How .. the first seeds were carried to jveMeriv Oregon, .(q jthe Salem district, is not knpwn fora -certainty. But that the Evergreen is peculiarly an Oregbn L berry, and peculiarly adapted to our soil and sunshine and showers in attaining perfection in growth, is certain. . 1 The 1924 pack of Evergreen blackberries of the Oregon canneries was 170,677 cases. The figures for 1925 are not yet available, but they-will show an increase; likely a large increase. And the barrelled pack will surely show a big A increase- A 1 f In fact, the Evergreen blackberry industry of; Oregon is decidedly on the; up grade-r- ; ; And "there is a reason ;" there are several reasons.- They stand out. j , The Evergreen blackberry is peculiarly well adapted for bard to believe that she nears the cannimr. It "stands ud" inthe cans. In this resDect it is in seventy mark- a class by itself. It has a distinction all its own. j But there X.ZTV TS'LS, is also opening a demand for this pie berry, in barrels and and from the days when eheiook large cans frozen berries.

Berries large, firm, sweet, and in between, dressed up in real quality very good, seeds large. Season late to very late and long. Bush vigorous, tender, productive, deep rooted and drought resistant; canes semi,trailing, perennial in some . sections, but they should always be trained as though they were biennial like other varieties; root at tips.. One of the best varieties in Oregon and Washington, but not' generally adapted to the states east of the Rocky Mountains, because i the fruit is small and worthless except in New Jersey, where ; it is grown considerably with success. Planting distances, 16 to 24 by 8 feet in Oregon and Washington according to conditions. This variety is found growing wild in Oregon and Washington. ' . There you have it ; : The Evergreen blackberry is an Oregon and Washington berry; and this means that it is a western Oregon berry and the Salem district Jiaving attained the premiership will keep .Jjtf jt will go in ever increasing volume in cans and barrels to i ,the,greatiie centers, and in jams and jellies, to all parts of j the world. , 1 The certain future of the Evergreen blackberry lies part 5 ly in its great production to the acre and its economy of cultivation, enabling growers and dealers and factories to put it onto the markets at reasonable prices. The Evergreen has another advantage, in the long life of the vines. It does not seem to crow old. : It has produced here as high as 16,000 pounds, to the acre, and it may produce 25,000 pounds, with proper cultiva 'tion and irrigation. - - V Nearly -all the Evergreen blackberries of Oregon are grown in the Salem district, with Marion county first, Polk next, Yamhill third and Linn county fourth in tonnage pro duced. - ! rant.

( For Elizabeth fears, no mortal man. Wasn't . she the woman who. visiting her 6-foot, rjneb grandson on the battleship. ?Cew Mexico, told the admiral aboard: , "If you want to keep my kid. on this-boat, mister, you'll .have, to raise them damn decks, a foot or head." . , ' It was' really a" desperate-wouh a u. , ;. r i.....

Glad I ate all that Rhortcake up; I'd hate to waste it on a lot of deputies." , , In and .out of 'scattered ranch buildings the . search proceeded, wj(h jaever an interval oL even a moment, when her TacUe tongue was quiet. In a tool shed was found an oil burner for a still and a half barrel of mash. "Welt, can you beat that!" she exclaimed. "Must have been that old fellow I hired for $2.50 a day to fix my fences. In fact, I re member I did' 'see him making tome of that stuff, and I run hkn out of here. JJon't know where he, did. put "that still." . In a second ranch building was the rest of the moonsbining equipment. She was worried a moment, then said: "Hope you fellows notice that razor and man's coat hanging there; that shows you it was a man running it." At another of her ranch houses was found a complete equipment in full blast. The operator had fled, leaving behind clothing and 'mail giving his identity. "I declare, I never even knowed they was anybody living here," she Insisted.
