. 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.

The Salem district will have a
bumner cron of hay on the west
side of the Willamette river this
year, Is the report of Charles K.
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

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. '
