FREIGHT RATES
ON APPLES CUT
Washington, D. C-. May 20 I.ow
er freight rates on apples from
tho Hood River and U'enatehee
valleys undo rlhe provisions of the
Ifoch-Sniith resolution were asked
of the interstate commerce com
mission today by the Wena tehee
valleys under the provision of the
Yakimn Valley Traffic and Credit
association and the Inland Empire
co-operative Federation of Walla
Walla.
Tho reiiucst for reduced trans
coutinuental rates on boxed apples
in carload lots from the northwe.it
was supported by tho argument,
thnt tho freight on apples is now
$1.50 per hundred pounds, an In
crease of 50 per cent since 1912.
in that time, due to larger load
ings, earnings of tho railroads per
car on apples have advanced 80
per cent, it is declared, while the
apple traffic has Increased six
times.
If carloadings at present were
630 boxes to the car, the apple
growers' associations contend the
per car revenue on tho basis ,of
present rates would be $4G7.78. In
stead of 750 boxes of apples are
loaned to every car, so that the
rate could be reduced to $1.26 pei
hundred pounds and bring- the
roads the same return they now receive.
In a statement to F. JJt Kent
of the statistical department of
(ho agricultural department
who was In Salem yesterday,
Karl Pearcy made tlx; follow
ing fciiimmirizntlnii nf fruit crop
ctmdltions In the Salem section

Straw berries 150 ik-i cent,
loganberries 115 per cent.

LIGHTNING VICTIM
COUSIN OF HUSSEY
J. W. Htissey. who was killed by
light nine Monday near llalsey.
Linn county, wan ft cousin of H.
C. Alanela, assistant state insur
ance commissioner. They wer
about the same ase, and when
were habee in Missouri often slept
in the same cradle when their
parents were visiting; each other.
The cousins had not seen each
other since 1SS1 when Mancla lcf(
Missouri, nd he did not know
llnpsey was in Orercon. Mr. Manela
will attend the funeral.
Rain conditions aro threatening
tho cherry crop and the outlook Is
exceedingly gloomy for a success
ful black cherry shipping year
here this year, according to Karl
Pearey, Denney & company's rep
resentative here on the black cher
ry deal. Ho predicts now u Ua
tier cent crop us compared to last
year with'brown rot developing a
little all over In the orchards and
conditions so far of moisture and
warmth being ideal toe brown rot
development.
In a telephone call to Prof, p.arss
of the Oregon Agricultural college
yesterday, parss confirmed Pear
cy's ideas as to this being a brown
rot year.
There has been some blossom
blight, states Pearey, but tho hot
weather for a period or two dried
tlui up.
The brown rot is what Is feared.
although a spell of hot weather
may keep it away.
He as'!ert it Is up to the grow
ers to spray for brown rot and this
spraying must, be done within the
next 10 ilay.s to do any good. After
that period has elapsed the last
ennnce is gone, he states
Ho says that liquid lime mil
pour or me noroeaiix mixture are
not recommended, that tho lime
suipnur is apt to mako small cher
rles and the Bordeaux to burn
the foliage. What the college
recommends Is either a sulphur
dust spray or a liquid application,
many farmers not being' erpiipoeu
iu use imp suipnur oust spray.
j no jiqum application recom
mended is made up of 16 pounds
or me iinest ousting sulphur, S
pounds or hydrated lime, 1 pound
of spreader nnd 100 gnllons of wat
er. The materials nre to be ni(xei
dry and sift Into the spray tank
while the agitator Is In action.
Application must be very thorouirii
on the fruit.
A real danger which Pearey soos
because nf present poor crop con
ditions lies in the chance that in
many orchards the cherries will
not be worth nicking and ns a re-
suit there will be no application
against ine cnerry worm nnd the
worm will have a chance to com
plete a new life cycle and cause
considerable trouble next year.
A continued moist nnd warm
condition is certain to bring about
a had hrnwn rot situation, say
cherry growers and this Is begin
ning to be seriously feared.
As the conditions now are jt Is
certain there will bo nothing like
tho cherry shipments1 thnt were
first figured on and the question
now Is whether thero will be any
black cherry shipping season here
nr not this yetr to speak of.
