Now, all the interest that is awakened in
business men here from various localities is
owing to the great exhibit here.

The following letter lrom Miss Angell, of

that every momout the Immense torrent of

The California Fruit Dayer.
Tlio abundance of fruit In California the
present year has Induced many to go lutothe
fruit drying business and a great ntuubsr of
California Fruit Dryers hvo been manufact
ured and so.'d In that Stste In consequence.
The scarcity of fruit in our own State pro-
vents tho production of any great quantity
of dried fruit tho present year, so Oregon
will not bo in tho markot with any great
amount of it tho present season.
Wo find tho following concerning the Cal
ifornia Fruit Drjer In thoSicramento Valley
Agncnttimst.
" Wo call It a pro3erving machine as the
fruit before us is preserved to a high sugared
state, unlike tho sun-dried fruit, and is
moist, full and plump In appearance. The
giapes, plums, prunes, nnd all ol her trulls
are ouroii in a diy heat that cures them Into
a preserved or sugared state so it will keep
in that condition an v Ioncth of time. Nearly
all ol our cranes can thus bocurod in a yery
high sugared slate, mid put on the maikot
111 a better cuudltlou and quality man mo lor
eign ralsms, A3 far as our observations
hye been nudo this drying machine excels
all others in curing all lruit that contains
oacclmrioo juices, and at a cost tr les than
any know 11 process. Our grape growers can
tako tiia dnor and turn their surplus lruit
Into tho most Miperior quality ot dried or
preserved fruit, that will bring the highest
prices in San I'racclsco and in the Ktslern
maikets, where it, is in constant demand,
To show our fruit-growers the largo prollt
realized In preserving fruits on this valuiblo
dryer, we will give the actual iiguios of the
lruit preserved on thoo driers. Mr. J. M.
Ciishlng, olSt. Helena, stilts that '220 pounds
ot French prunes, dried and prt-sorvul, net
ted 94 pounds of dried and sugared prunes,
selling at '2- edits per pound; Mr J. A Craw
ford, of Sobastopol. states that Ills dried and
preserved lruit will brine; four to live cents
moro than other dried fruit; Mr. Houtier,
near Sacramento, who is canulng'awi drying
Immense quantities of fruit, says that oveu
six cents per pound will pay for plums and
prunes dried anil pre-erved on the Dolt?,
patent. By actual test it takes les than three
pounds of Mhlaua or Muscat umufs to make
a pound of highly siuarod raisins, superior
to tliosun-diied. Mr. Chandler, ot Marvs-
vlllo. sivs that his fruit i suiendid and in
tends to dry all the dillerect variolic of
grapes on tuo rleKelson raneu, near ljin
coin. Mr. Grosli. 011 the UldwMl mmili, at
chico, sold aprltots dried on this drier, at :i0
j cents poiliui; .Mr. lir.cK, 01 JiarysvuiH, 10
ceived tlio highest piice for all tliedill'fieui
dried and preserved fiu.it sent to tho city,
and the couiuitsMou merchant writes that ho
wanted all that could be had now. This
shows that our grapes, plums, primes, apri
cots, nectarines and peaches can be sent
Kast to an unlimited m-tiket, and w ill not
ood payitiit pr.ces on account of its superior
quality, and k6ipiug any length ot time, be

It. 1. Stoen, Master of the Grange at Djy

his way to attend the annuil meetiug ot tho
Slate Grange at Albauy. He reports times
as prosperous In Walla Walla and Columbia

with business. The harvest has been re
markably large this year, many fields yield
lug as high as sixty bushels of wheat to the
aero. The two sto-tmers ot the o. B. rv. co.i
