Th CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON SATURDAY, JANUARY 10, 1925 DENNEY PLANS GREEN FRUIT CAMPAIGN IN VALLEY GERMAN PAPER IS HELD BOON TO WIESBADEN PAGE EIGHT PLAN TO HANDLE Ap:anme In the valloy the pat lew dity of F. H. llugue and G. 1. Mcl'etk,, official of liennry & company, with Ky Hurst ttnir field iii:tu, travertins every uccliun from Uose'uiitf to i'oi tluntl, in fuie runner of what mav be the biKKet fresh fruit uiil ever inilk-d off In the northwest. Definite deemlun will be iiuiilo In tho next few diy as to wliJt thi comintny'H plaim are for the onnlnR seasun, Suo cvta here last season with blaek cherries nnd preen prunes is res ponsible for the company's plaiiK which If currkil out will mean the most widenpread fresh fruit ship ping campaiiin ever bI.'ik 1 I" 'be Willamette and Umptiuu valleyH. On iJirjjc Senile Both black cherries and prunes will be handled on un enoriuous scale with shipments probably mode from every available point from Portland to Hoscburi?. Salem undoubtedly will be one of the but centers ir the deal kh over, us It appeirs it now will, and it it probable that the company will handle every bliuk cherry out of here that It can et hold of. Present plans Indicate that ex pert will be went in here from Dennev & company in the near fu ture for the sole purpose of put ting over a cmnpulgn to p't K'ow erg t.i start In spraying as soon as Is the proper time for the cherry maggot and later to spray for the brown rot. Official of the company are Rat ified that tho brown rot in cher ries can bo suceeaiifully coped with here by proper spruylnK and It can be warded off except In event of a rain Just at h:uvt lime, itut the buyeri und growers are both up against the name possibility In the Idaho section and from past experience there Is Just as much of a chance for a rain In harvest time In Idaho as there is here. Probably Permanent If a successful fruit year Is had here there Is a good possibility of Uenny A compiiny transferring a large share of Its operations to this valley as a permanent propo sition. While last year was an ex ceptional year with black cherries here, In fact the flrt year of its kind In the bluck cherry Industry, Uenney representative say there is no reason why the situation should not be good If proper cure Is taken of orchards. It Is understrod that cherry damage from freezing wan very se vere in the southern Idaho sec tion this year where in places It went to 30 degrees below aero. As far as con be ascertained daiiiuge from freezing here was very light as far as cherries are concerned. Frost damage and general condi tion of the orchards, It is under stood, Is what tho IJenncy offi cials have been looking Into dur ing their present survey of the Valley, leading up to a final tie terminal Ion as to whether they will come In next year or not. Last yoar the company shipped about 1 4 enrs of black cherries from Salem alone and a lare num ber of cars of green prunes. If they come In Hits year It Is Inti mated that the sky will bo the limit as far ns the amount of cher ries and prunes handled Is concerned.

Another .-Ironi; conlributlnK factor lies in the compara tively low production of the past few years. During 1924 the decreas ed npulatlon (which was lower in January, 1922, than at any time since 17K) had been increased to some extent, but had barely begun to ulr.ice its path to the production level of pre-war years. DurinR tho summer the movement of feeder lambs to the country was far ahead of last year. nlthouKh a largo total was recorded for The movement diminished later and the number of lambs on feed throughout the entire country shows a decrease of lens than 1 per cent on a tally around the last few weeks of the year, while Colorado, a strong supply stale for the lamb market after the first of l elruary, shows an Iru-i of 200,OUO head over the 192J figures This lncrc.i.se. however, will not Indent the market receipts for some time, and relatively high prices are expected to contlnuo th-ounh J92S rnd probably for tho next few years.

In tho open Is always fascinating and with the modern motor cum pint; outfits is a simple mutter. The barbecue Idea is an excellent one to follow In this sort of an outing and as It Is a first cousin of the old fashioned clam bake, we can highly recommend It to trlpperri. The barbecue Is hard work but pays a rich reward In de lictus food. A folding broiler, a folding oven nnd a stew pot will bo needed for the reguliir camp fire, as well ns a generous sized coffeo pot with tho ground coffee all ready In baps. Then a very largo sized grill and two swabs for biiHtlng, the usual tablo equipment and fiueh fancy feeds as may be desired. A shovel Is needed for digging a trench four or five feet long, two feet deep and tho width of the big brolier. When the trench Is dug It may be lined with flat field stones, with stones on each side it tho top to rest tho broiler on. Then ends of the trench are left open to regulate the flic by a long forked stick of green or damp wood. The fire Is built of hard wood nnd Is nllowel to burn to a solid bed of coals, then the cooking Is bgun. Tho regular cam pf Ire Is used for cooking the rabbit stew the coffeo nnd the biscuits. Kor tho barbecuu young roasting chickens may bo prepared. They uro singed, washed, cleaned, the sinews drawn from tho legs before tho feet are cut off, then firmly trussed with steel skewers, rubbed over with melted butter and light ly dusted with pepper nnd salt The grill should be well greased then placed over the Btones and It is ready for the chickens. The chickens must be turned with the long forkvery frequently and swab bed with a sauce made for the pur pose. The sauce may be made at homo and bottled, then warmed up and used when necoed. Kor the sauce put into a sauce pan a pound of butter, a pint of water, n teaspoonful f pepper, a teaspooiifnl each of suit and curry powder, a tnblespooufiil of Worces tershire sauce, a sliced lemon, a h.ilf-:u rubier of currant Jelly, a large minced onion, a crushed bud of garlic, a tu jlcspoonful each of chopped celery leaves and parsley Poll gently for a half hour In a double boiler, then strum into a jar ami let cool, then cover and use for basting chicken. Wet the swabs with the paueo and baste freely as the chickens cook. Potatoes may be washed and prepared for baking at the Mime time as there will be room on the grill between tho chickens, and If the potatoes are greased over, the skins will not burn ns the potatoes cook. If the chickens happen to bV broilers, they should bo split down tho back In the uuul way be fori cooking them on the grill. They should be brushed over with butter and dusted with pepper and salt before being placed on the grill and cooked on the under side, then turned and basted. All the giblets from the chickens may be parboiled, then cut up and put Into a rich well seasoned brown sauce nnd baked In a pie, or made in little turnovers to be served hot I with the chicken. A few mush rooms may be ea'itcd and added to the giblets nnd the sauce should be thick. K.ich turnover should have a hen ping t abb-spoonful of Ihe filling. If the stew Is not need cd then boll corn In lis place as Kcrxanl Aiv Tmed Homo The ltomnn who Is suf ficiently well-to-do to employ do mestic servants In henceforth to be taxed by the city on his afflu ence. One male servant costs his employer t) lire a year; 100 for a second servant and IsO for a third On female servants the tax Is 10 lire for one, and for each addition al helper 40 lire. that always tastes so good when cooked and eaten in the open. It can be roosted, If preferred, after It has been boiled by Just laying It on the open grill over tr.e camp fire. Have soft butter and salt at hand to use on the corn when It Is done. It should be roasted af ter tho dinner is served as It take.? only a few minutes and must be eaten hot. II read and butter sandwiches may be served with the chicken, and bread and currant or mint Jelly sandwiches also for those who do not eat tho hot biscuits. If tho family are rather English in their taste a fine baked ham may be taken along to sllco and eat with tho chicken, especially if no stew is used as a side dish. Melons generally take the place cf other sweets at a barbeque, but it Is a matter of taste. Many people take the canned plum pudding, l'ut into boiling water for an hour it makes a hot desert. The sauce la made at home and reheated, or a good hard sauce Is mado for the pudding. Pies, If chosen, may be easily reheated by placing them on top of the grill. Telegraphic advices received by (he Kobert C. Paul us company from New Yoi k advice of the prob ability of buying interest develop ing in Oregon ii'id the dispatch slated that a certain buyer is be ginning to make Inquiry ns to the situation on Oregons. The tele gram Is of extra interest bocuuse" this particular buyer for many jenrs has shown a tendency not to get into the market until stocks are virtually bare, and lie invari ably, according to past experiences buys Just before an advance. Paulus yesterday turned down orders for over u quarter of a mil lion pounds of prunes because of prices offered which were stight'y below thi regular market. He still Is buying prutK-s and has absorb ed a cons ioerable quantity during the past few weeks. He is paying priced higher than offered by any other buyer, as far as can be as certained. Huports are to the effect that r.o a pp recta Mo amount of sales have been :uad of r.li-tiu.s nince the last advance in price but local packers are not worrying tis the situation seems to indicate plainly that these are scarce and It is only a question of time before the de n. and will absorb all there are and ask for more, nnd possibly even at another advance. Paulus yesterday accepted an other order for a car or dried ap- pie crop, the second car of this sold by him in the past 10 days. PRUNE HOLDINGS NOW HELD BUT UNMARKETED The Calif T.-nl i Packing 'orpjra tion !s credited with still having 5,000.000 pounds of prunes In its 1!I24 pool out of a total of what has generally been estimated as 3,000,000 pounds. Last year they were credited with a total of 5,- COO.O'JO pounds In their pool at its largest, Tno JJrager Fruit com pany has been credited with hav irtg about 7,000.000 pounds at the peak of their season nnd the north west exchango handled about 9, 500,000 pounds, according to gen oral report. General estimate now places about from 2, 00,000 to 3,000,000 pounds as still In the hands of growers in th-j valley. FOUR MENWVESEAS IN 32 FOOT OPEN BOAT Tacoma. Wash.
