PAGE EIGHT THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON ;e sees HEED FOR BETTER SALES METHODS M. 3. Newhouse, assistant manager of the Oregon Growers Cooperative association,- will de liver an address Saturday morn lag at Corvallla before the State Horticultural, society on "The Prune Outlook." In his address, be will take up the matter of prune prices in rela tion to the prune acreage, and will advocate the use of sound merchandising methods of distri bution to properly dispose of the large crops of prunes which are sure to be grown in the north west within a few years. Prune acreage is rapidly grow ing in Oregon, and with the cer tainty of a largely Increased, ton nage to be sold from year to year, Mr, Newhouse believes it of vital importance that business methods should be employed in distributing the crop. One of these is in proper adver tising of Oregon's crop of prunes to an. extent that will iDsure a much larger consumption, not only in this country, but in for eign markets. There are in this northwest prune district, which includes Clarke county, Washington, 45, 000 acres in bearing and non bearing prunes. In Douglas couuty alone, about 240,000 Italian prune trees will be planted this season, and this la bat a sample of what is going on in other prune districts, Mr. New- house said. Hence the necessity of developing business methods in securing markets In the future that will care for the crops when the northwest produces double its present crop. Last year the prune crop In the northwest was about 25,000,000 pounds, while this year many growers place the crop at 50,000 000 pounds. Those who have been watching the rapid growth of prune acreage, predict that with in a few years, the northwest will produce 100,000,000 pounds. The California crop averages 200,000, 000 pounds, although this year the estimate now Is for 185,000, 000 pounds. PRUNE MARKE I SLOW BUT FIRM . Market conditions of prunes in the east show no changes with in the past few days, according to the New- York Journal of Com merce, recognized authority on dried fruits. This Is due largely to ' unsatisfactory transportation conditions, even when shipments are made by water from the cific coast to New York city. Under recent date, the Journal says: 'The prune market U devoid of any new interest. Prunes on the coast are held at prevailing prices. The pot market Is quiet One reason assigned by the New York authority for the piv-m quiet market is the uncertainty of the time of arrival of prunes when shipped by boat, and the fact that shipments often are divided and arrive in New York on different boats. The Journal of Commerce says: "The time of New York brokers is being spent in trying to find out when and on what boat prunes sold will arrive in New York. Per haps never before have transpor tation conditions been as baa as they are at present, which appears to be the peak of congestion. Bearcats Doped To Win Struggle With Linfield; Many Changes Are Due WRITER HERE SEEKING DATA FOR ARTICLES COUNCIL AT WOODBUBN NAMES CITY OFFICERS Woodburn, Or., Nov. 23.- At the new city council meeting Tuesday night Virgil H. Massey was elected city attorney; Dr. Os mar K. Wolf, health officer; E. N. Boule, water superintendent. Tne solec-tlon of a street commissioner 'was postponed until one was need ed. Salaries fixed were: Mayor and city council, (1.50 for at tendance at every regular meet ing; chief of police, $100 a month; city recorder, $100 a month; city treasurer, $25 a month; water superintendent., $100 a month; health officer, $100 a year; city attorney, $20 a month. Frank Covey was reap pointed chief of police by the may or. The fire department will give its annual ball on Thanksgiving night. Fred Lockley, well known writ er for the Oregon Journal, is in the city looking over old records with a view of writing a series ,ol Articles on slavery in the north west and especially fliat action was taken by the early Oregon legislatures in regard to slavery. This morning he Interviewed Mrs. John Q. Wilson, whose hus band was the first county judge of Baker county. He also haa a long talk with Mrs. Virginia Watson Applegate,'. 2274 State street, regarding pioneer times in Oregon. Mrs. Applegate came to Oregon in 1845. Mr. Lockiey's father was one of the owners of The Capital Journal about 30 years ago, and he him self was one of the carrier boys along in 1888 and 1889. He had associated with him at that time as carriers, John J. Roberts of this city and Joe Evans now of Portland. The lineup which the Bearcats will present at McMlnnville to morrow afternoon wjien they meet the Linfleld college eleven, as part of the home-coming week end program there, will see many of. the regulars In positions dif ferent from the ones they have been playing this year, according to Coach itoy Bohler. About the only person in the backtleld who is sure to remain at the old position is Cramer, full back. From two to five yards were made by him practically every time he carried the ball last Sat urday, but Zellar, captain, and Bain, quarter, did not think it best to use him too much. Cramer hits the line low and strikes like a battering ram. White, center, left Wednesaay for Berkeley to attend a meeting of the student body presidents of the northwest and in his place will likely be Bain, center on last year's team. Isham or Booth will be the runners of the team, ertner jf whom is at home in the posi don. Isham acted as quarter last year most of the time. Booth has been calling for the second leuiu this year. He has the build and goes into the line so low that It looks like he is crawling. The jne that does not play the quarter position will be found at half, at least for a time. Another man riohler wants to give a chance in the backfield is Stolzheise, guard, and if the game is going in the Bearcats favor it is likely that he will take Zellar's place for a trial. U open field running and dodging Zellar .is the fastest on the team but he hits the line rather high. In the Pacific game it was im possible for him to make yardage straight into the line. Other players that are likely to be found in strange positions are Sherwood, Allan, Huston or War ner. All have played at tackle but when Stolzheise gets his chance in the backfield. As the Bearcats defeated Lin field here by a large score some time ago It is not thought that the locals will be hard pressed and the experiment in positions will develop some good material for the game with the College of Puget Sound here on Thanksgiv ing day. Doctor Jailed; Prison Sought; Study His Aim Portland, Or., Nov. 23. The story of four physicians Who have sought prison sentences in order to study psychopathology among convicts was told here by Dr. E. J. Lenihan, after he had received a sentence of 11 months in federal prison on a charge of taking a jtolen automobile from Portland to Spokane. He surrendered re cently at Missoula, Mont. When Judge R. S. Bean asked him if he had anything to say be fore sentence was passed Lenihan explained that he wished to re ceive a penitentiary term in or der to carry out his plan of stu dies. To newspaper men Dr. Lenihan said he was a graduate of a large university In the-east, that he and several associates planned to make studies of criminals at close range, and that three of his medi cal friends have been sentenced to penitentiaries and are now serv ing terms. He said he had made numerous attempts to obtain a prison sen tence in New York, but each time had only succeeded in getting e jail term. v DALLAS DECLINES :T 0 DISCUSS ROAD WITH OLD BOARD Dallas, Or., Nov. 23. Believing that a new state highway commie sion will soon be In office Dallas business men connected with the commercial club declined to en ter into negotiations with the present members of that body tor the completion of the West Side Pacific highway In Polk county. What other sections of the county will do is not known, but the rumor is general throughout the county that the commission at its meeting this week will let con tracts for the completion of the highway for the approximately 13 miles of unpaved road south of Monmouth and north of Rlckreall. The position taken by the busi ness men is that they believe they will be able to make a better deal with the new commission than would be possible with the men now in office, and that they are disposed to wait. The wisdom of this action is doubted. sections ct the stats now, even though it Is right in the conten tion that the highway should have been constructed according to the legislative act, All other sections want the highway completed, par ticularly now that the traffic is so heavy on the east side - pavement. While he was in Dallas at the hearing of the bond case in court, J. M. Devers. attorney for the state highway commission, let it be known that the present high way commission would like to have a meeting with the majority of the county court and other citi zens of Dallas and if possible agree upon some plan that will allow of the paving of the remainder of the highway without delay. It was this proposal that was turned down in Dallas, but which will likely be taken up by other parts of the county.' NEW ROOM ADDED TO SCHOOL AT VALSETZ Dallas. Or., Nov. 23.
