FAKE CONTRACT Following the expaso of thu one Bldednefifl of the cherry contracts they have made witn wiiuirnoiie valley growers, published in tho uapn.ai journal or Tiiesuny, wen ney and company through its lo cal managor, Roy R. Hurst, comen forward with n.n announcement guaraiitoclng a cash advance of 6 cents a pound to growers upon delivery. Tho advance will he paid to the growers as soon as the cherries have been accepted and weighed at tho plant, Mr. Hurst said this morning, intimating that tne com pany would walvo the provision of the contracts calling tor written agreements of all alterations in the contract. Under the provisions of the con tract the company agreed lo ad vance only 2 V4 cents when the cherrlea had been delivered, nacK ed and loaded Into tho lcod cars here. Another 2 cent advance upon completion of the sale of the cherries In the eastern markcttt was provided. No other concession In the "Jok er" contract have been reported, but growers are expressing confi dence that tho Denney pool will now work out satisfactorily to the growers In any event, in view or the publicity that has bcon given the agreement. "It is up to Donney to make good now," snld one grower thl morning. "If timv don't they will be through in the valley." Most of the growers who have Igncd the contracts are giving th company credit for operating In good fnlth and are satisfied that they will got a fair return for thf'r fruit, although many state that they would not have entered Into any agreement to sell on the con signment basis had they known there would have been a cash market for the cherries. All of the buy on and shippers are now operating and accepting cherries, but there Is little Indica tion that the first car will roll from here beforo Sunday. Younj; ft Wells are caring for their early receipts by packing and trucking them to The Ihilles for shipment from that point. Reports on the extent of the he-it wave damage to the fruit continue to vary, but so far the fruit delivered has been of very fair quality. Rings appear to have Buffered thu heaviest damn go and tinny of thorn allow considerable hrlnkage. Reports rocolved from Dallas aay that very few of the early cher rlos there were plckod, due prin cipally to the heavy damage done by th wild pigeons. Oreat droves of th birds, whlMi are protected by Ihw. swarmed into some of thn orchards and ate up the entire crop. THEATER FIRE TAKES HEAVY TOLL OF LIFE (Continued from rge ,ne) Ixcd a volunteer party of 100 men to search the smouldering wreck ago for bodies. I'lrcman Killed They predicted It would take many hours nf digging before an accurate appraisal of tho casual ties could be made.

Archerd, local buyer Oats and vetch hay Is unusually heavy In that district and the clover crop Is fair ulthough there Is a shortage of acreage In the clover this year. A good crop will be harvested on tills slue or tne wiiiumeue, dim will not be as large as on the west aide, be declared. Farmers are profiting by Ideal weather for hay Continued heat will do nun drcds of dollars of damage to the loganberry crop that has. not yet been harvested, was the report of packers and growers this morning. The past three days of heat has already forced an appreciable loss, growers report, and a few more days of the heat will bring a pre mature halt to the logan harvest here, they declare. it is not the rine berries but those that are green and those whose color Is Just changing, the growers say. A white blister has appeared on the unripe berries on the sunny side nf tho vinos in prac tioally all of tho fields. Many of tne ripe berries havo been damns- ed through scalding but the loss on these is not as great as on the green fruit that was counted on ror a continuation of the harvest and pack. rOstlmates of the amount of damage dune cannot bo made until there Is Indication of how ong the hot spell will last. lleports from cherrv irrawors mis morning indicate that they will not suffer an appreciable loss un- ohs tile neat Is lonir continued Damage now centers around the inngs which aro the onlv vnriotv ripe enough to be severely affeetc The heat, however, has caused n drying of the f uit that is coming oiu locai ennnenes and has mar red considerably the looks of the puck.

OrrynD riH tit Portland, Juno 26 Portland and vicinity Is showing a healthy growth as a shipper of vegetables and garden produce to other mar kets. This industry has shown a steady gain during the last few years, due largely to rigid govern ment Inspection. Growers are benefitting from theno outside shipments, not only from the remunerative returns from the shipments but also from the fact that it keeps the home market In good shupe and allows them to sell their crop at a good profit Instead of having to unload at any old price on a market al ready over-supplied. During the past two weeks some thing like 10 carloads of peas and 15 carloads of lettuce have gone to eastern consuming markets. "We have shipped out some of tne rinest cars or peas this sea son," said Billy Bullettsett, pro prletor of Garden Products. "These shipments have not only kept the local market from becoming over- supplied but have also enabled the growers to harvest their entire crop at a fair profit.' Approximately 18 carloads of strawberries were shipped. Cherry shipments will start from the val ley next week and there will prob ably be around 50 carloads move out for the eastern markets. Very few fresh prunes are ex pected to be shipped this year on account( of the severe winter kill and the resulting light crop. The poultry market Is well sup plied and prices are barely steady. Butter continues firm although standard cubes are a half cent lower on the exchange. All other grades posted steady. Likelihood of an au vance in print prices thb-: week end has apparently blown over. Current receipt eggs are a half cent f uglier on the exchange- at 32 cents net. Graded stocks posted steady. Hot weather re- Quires closer candling and great er loKscs. There is little prospect of prices working much higher. commission firms alonir the street havo carried over country dressed veal for the past two days. ueeeipis were tight today but there is very little demand and prices barely holding at 13 cents. Choice light hogs firm and scarce at 18 U to 19 cents.

COMMUNITY HOUSE AT CAMP GROUND - IS OPENED (Continued from page one) $463.16 being the balance on hand from last year, according to Louis Aldrich, member o fthe commit tee who keeps the books. During the same period $1887.76 has been spent, the report shows. Of the sum spent $1062.30, plus money for a few odds and ends, went In to construction of the community house. The total cost of the house la estimated at approximately $1100 Other expeditures went Into lm provements, repairs on the grounds and wages for the two caretakers employed there. The caretakers each roceive $75 per month, or $25 per month less than they re ceived last summer, Mr. Aldrich states. Rumors which have sprung up from time to time to the effect that various citizens of the city, singly or In groups, are planning to se cure furniture, exhibits and decor ations for the house, have proved for tho most part to be groundless. Each group has adopted a consist ent policy of postponing action or leaving action for somebody else to perform. Meanwhile the community house plans for which were launched with high onthuslasm, continues to He idle, while much traffic which It was expected to attract, passes by.
