CENTRAL OREGON
THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON'
Half Cent -Advance
For Prunes Paid
To Local Growers
i
An advance of a straight half
cent for prunes In all sizes is re
ported in the deals that have been
made fn the Dallas section during
the past few days. One hundred
thousand pound3 of 6 0-6 5s, on
which the best previous offers had
been 6 cents," were sold the latter
part of last week to Mangus Bros.
of Salem at 6 cents.
One local buyer in Dallas re
ceived instructions Friday to pur
chase 200 tons and most of the or
der has already been filled. The
sizes included in this purchase are
45-SOs at 8 cents, 50-553 at 7 Mi
cents and 55-60 at 7 cents.
The market continues very
strong and practically all of the
large growers are holding for fur
ther advances.
While reporting that they have
covered all of their over-selling by
purchasing 600,000 pounds from
the Washington Growers associa
tion and the acceptance of Inde
pendent growers In their pool, the
Oregon Growers association is still
seking to line up more growers
and persistent reports say that
they are still short on some sizes.
A good idea of how the prunes
are sizing up in the lowland or
chards around Dallas is to be
gained from a glance at the grade
sheets of H. A. Woods, one of the
largest growers In that neighbor
hood. This grade is said to be
typical of all of the lowland or
chards and shows an absence of
3 0-3 5s, a marked shortage of 35
40s and 40-45s. Of the 171,237
pounds graded the proportions are
as follows: 35-40, 796 pounds;
40-45S. 588 pounds; 45-50s, 31,-
359 pounds;' 50-5 5s, . 12,494
pounds; 55-60s, 66,455 pounds
60-708. 52.211 pounds; 70-80s
1654 pounds; 80-90S, 4484 pounds
PONZI'S TRIAL
Boston, Oct.' 23. Charles Ponzi,
whose scheme of quick riches for
investors in International postal
reply coupons collapsed two years
ago, was ready to go on trial in
the superior court today on the
charges, preferred against him by
the state. He now is serving a
five year federal sentence for using
the mails to defraud. "
Ponzi, who had previously said
he expected to plead his own case
was to be tried on an indictment
charging him with larceny, with
conspiracy and with being an ac
cessory before the fact of larceny
Several men who had served him
as agents were to be tried on
charges of larceny and conspiracy.
The Salem King's Food Products
company stands willing to pay at
any time the money alleged due
for prunes delivered by R. A. Mc-
Farlane, as soon as the question ot
ownership to the land on which
they were grown has been settled,
according to a communication re
ceived from the company by The
Capital Journal. ......
A short while ago R. A. McFar-
lane instituted suit against the
Kings company. He aljeged that
he had contracted his prune crop
with the company, had delivered
it. but had not received all his
money.
The company explained today
that on September 14, Carey F.
Martin, as attorney for W. C. Till
son, served notice on the company
to the effect that Robert McFar
lane did not own the. land de
scribed in the contract. He further
demanded that payment for the
prunes be delayed.
"McFarlane, having made ver
bal demand upon us for payment
ot this balance, and Tlllson, by his
.attorney, having also made a for
mal demand that we withhold
such payment, puts this company
in a position where It could not
pay either party without obligat
ing itself to pay for the prunes
twice," a statement Issued by the
Kings company said. It adds that
there Is no question of tha com
pany's ability to pay for all pro
duce delivered to it. jtti

ity these are Borne of the objec
tives of the Salem chamber of

ry,, president of the organization.

"Salem has at the present time
a well developed industrial life. It
is oho ot the great fruit packing
centers of the Pacific northwest

creased," Mr. Perry said. "Salem
is the center ot a wonderfully rich
agricultural section and the agri
cultural committee of the cham
ber should work with the canners
and packers and with the growers
in an effort to stabilize the fruit
industry and bring about such
conditions as will be for their mu
tual profit and prosperity.
Mr. Perry also explained that
the chamber should consider the
problems of city merchants. Trade
axtension work of a practical sort
jhould be undertaken. Direct as
sistance should be given to the
merchants in all special activities,
he pointed out.
Mr. Perry felt that new litera
ture, setting forth Salem's advan-
ages, should be issued and distri
buted widely. He also declared
chat it should have the highest
kind of civic development.
