Seventy tons of berries rotting on the vines because of no market, at an approximate loss of $26,000, would dls tourage the ordinary grower in the valley, be he expert or novice.'- Such wai the experience of W. L. Bentley, ot Woodburn, during the season of 1916; but today he finds the present joys of his new industry better tnmi any picture of a future paradise that was ever painted from a pulpit. All of the difficulties met by the experienced grower have been forgotten, so to ipeak, even to the immense loss sus tained last winter when the vines of his big- berry farm were frozen, and he has dropped gracefully into the re- sponsibillties of the great industry, which means so much for the future of Oregon, A man who can plunge into the Industry In the face of these condi- ttionp ami staka his future on the effi ciency of the same, is so full of faith that he ought to be talking from be hind a pulpit Instead of prancing around In a berry field giving orders to a bunch of helpers. "It's a great game, this berry busi ness," said Mr. Bentley, "and the peo- ..pta of Oregon only Bee it today in its infancy." His faith is so great in the loganberry possibilities that his yards have been expanded to .include sixty seven acres of highly cultivated berry land.

Mr. Eently has just purchased a new tractor and a berry gang plow which he is operating in the yards at present. "A great game" is right and de I serves all manner of encouragement I on the part of buyers, consumers and growers. It means the making of the Willamette valley. It means that the world, in future years, will recognize this as the most productive berry sec tion that God gave to his people. the necessity of making a new hole in the ground. The matter is being in-! vestigated by the mayor and council today. The street committee of the city council has been ordered to get bids for the construction of a new bridge across Silver creek in the Geiser addi tion; $100 has already been raised by public subscription for the improve ment of the street in that vicinity, which is necessary before the bridge can be assured.
