The Crop Is Almost a Complete Fail

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. This

Medford, Ore., Sept. 15. 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.
