The Crop Is Almost a Complete Fail ure for the I'lrnt Time. The apple crop In Arkansas I practically a total failure. It Is the first time such a condition has exist ed In this state since apples became a staple crop. Early frosts and rain during the flowering season are to blame. The Arkansas apple growing dis trict Is Included largely Jn the three counties of Washington, Benson and Madison. Fruit growers of these three conutles received about three million dollars for the crop last year. The three Industries dependent on the apple crop, fruit canning, vine gar making and fruit drying, are put out of business for this year. There are nearly two dozen canning fac tories In Washington and 'Benton counties, and It Is estimated that the output of the canning factories In Washington county alone amounted last year to $200,000. Evaporators were In operation last year through-1 out the fruit belt, at the one shipping point of Rogers, doing a business last year of $02,000. The big vinegar fac tory at Rogers, which has a capacity of 3500 bushels a day, and which last year shipped 530,000 gallons of vine gar, will not be able to operaie this year at all. SHIPPERS COMPLAIN. Sulin IUpcr Tell of Plea for Lower (.rain Rate. The Salem Statesman says of the complaint filed by farmers of eastern Oregon concerning the grain rates on the O. R. & X. and Its branches, of which the East .Oregonlan has given the news: Grain shippers on the main line of the O. R. & X. railroad, between Haines and Seuerts, and upon the Pilot Rock, Elgin, Shaniko, Heppner, Condon branches and the Washington division in Oregon and Portland have filed a complaint with the rallroaj commission against the existing schedule of rates and ask, that a re duction of at least 40 per cent be made by the commission, after for mal hearing of same has been had. This complaint Is made in the name of George Peebler of Pendle ton, through Attorneys James A. Fee and R. J. Slater, and embodies prac tically the same allegations as those j set forth In the complaint made by i the railroad commission, upon Its own motion, and hearings have already j been set for Pendleton, September i and Wasco, September 22.

Orchards in the Rogue River valley will suffer from frost this year. There la not a fruit, grain or vegetable producing country In the known world which does not have the elements to con tend with to a greater or less extent. This being true. It cannot be expect ed that the Rogue River valley of southern Oregon would be an excep tion to the general rule. We do have here sometimes the elements of frost to contend with, but the necessity of protection against this element is so rare as to cause our fruitgrowers to become careless of their Interests and they sometimes forget the possibility of Injury. This was the case last spring with a few of our orchard men and they are now regretful. One Insance of this over-confidence and abiding faith which may be cited Is that of Colonel R. C. Washburn, who owns the famous Ta ble rock orchard. For 12 or 15 years i this orchard has borne av good crop of fruit, each season, but there Is no fruit there this season.- The orchard could reasonably have been expected to have produced this year $10,000 worth of fruit, and It would undoubt edly have done this had not a little frost happened that way just at bloom time last spring. There were other orchards In the valley which happen ed to be in the path of this cold wave, and they, too, were nipped. .ADORERS SAYS ARE SATISFIED FEDERATION AGENT large Industrial Insttlutlons are once again getting on their feet there Is a heavy depand for laborers.
