OLD SALEM FRUIT UNION PROPERTY IS DISPOSED OF
INCORPORATE
NEW COOPERATIVE
PACKING PLAN!
UMPQUA VALLEY APPLES
FOR LEHIGH VALLEY DINERS
What Li to become of the Salem
Fruit Union property, a question
wnicli has been alive on fruit row
ever since entrunco of the JudK
ment in favor of the I'hez com
pany, la answered In the filing of
Incorporation papers yesterday by
C. JVI. Mlall, LeHter Jiurr and Paul
B. Wallace for the Northwest
Fruit Union, with a capitalization
or $40,000.
Filing of the articles indicaten
that tho new Northwest Kruil
Union, which will bo a subsidiary
of the North went Fruit Products
company, present owners of the
Salem Kruit Union building thru-
tne judgment, will work out uh
direction under C. M. Mlnll, mana
ger of the Northwest Fruit Prod
ucts company, the outgrowth of
the defunct I'hez company.
The plan is to rejuvenate the old
Salem Fruit union under the new
name of tho Northwest Fruit
Union, to start off In the first In
stance with a co-operative prune
packing plant and work gradual
ly Into a co-operative handling all
fresh fruits, including fresh fruit
shipments, and to generally fill the
hole left vacant when tho Salem
Fruit Union lost Its identity In the
Oregon Growers Co-operative asso
ciation. It la hoped to sell the entire
block of (40,000 worth of capital
stock to interested growers, al
though It Is understood that some
of the stuck already has been spok
en for.
The articles of incorporation per
mit the new union to establish,
own and operate canneries, pack
ing bonnes, driers, factories and
plants for canning, preserving or
otherwise preparing food for mar
ket and consumption. The articles
permit the handling of either
iruits, vegetables or otner rood
products.
It is considered likely ns the new
co-operative develops It may rem'h
Into the field of walnuts and til
bortfl, and generally Into food pro
ducts, although the present plan is
to move slowly and make the union
develop itself.
It Is the intention of the man-
-agement to make a success of this
co-operative, moving along con
enrvatlve lines and developing It
slowly, and for this reason tho In
itial plan Is to handle prunes only,
Of the $40,000 in capital stock,
$15,000 worth or KpO shares Is to
be common stock and tho other
$25,000 worth, or 250 shares. Is
to be In prof erred stock, paying
8 per cent Intercut.
It Is understood that Mlall will
not personally manage tho new co
operative, but that a manager will
bo selected, probably a local man
with considerable experience In the
fruit business, ns well as consid
erable connection with the co-operative
movement. Hackers of the
plan are not yet ready to announce
the namo of tho prospective mali
nger. Tho proposed union will oper
ate at (ho old fruit union building,
probably eventually using it in Its
entirety, according to present plans,
although no definite handling of
crops Is planned ofr this year, ac
cording to the Ideas so far worked
out.
Roseburg, Aug. 19 A carload
lot of Umpiiua valley apples were
ordered by the superintendent of
the Lehigh Valley dining car ser
vice of rensyivanta, because, a
year ago, the railroad man saw a
display of te fruit In the display
booth at the Southern Pacific sta
tion here. A blanket order for 800
cases of apples has been placed by
tho official through the chamber
of commerce,

Portland, Aug. 19 The cron re
port for Oregon issued by the Unit
ed States department of agricul
ture for tho week ending August
is, ioiiowh:
Moderately warm weather pre
vailed at the beginning of the
week, but toward the close It was
much cooler, with light frost In
some central elevated sections. The
change in temperature was accom
panled by considerable cloudiness,
with heavy showers In a few east
ern localities, and light rain over a
large part of the state. Rain and
higher humidity chocked the
spread of forest fires, and the
heavy, smoke which covered a
large part of the slate last week
was cleared away.
Cereals: Most small grain Is ma
ture, harvest is over In many places
ana tnresning Is making progress,
though It was delayed by rain In
places. Irrigated corn Is doing
wen, but unirrigatcd corn gener
ally needs rain. Plowing for fall
seeding will make little progress
until more rain falls.
Fruit: Apples are dropping some
what because of lack of moisture.
burly winter apples are beginning
to show color. Picking of Bartlett
pears continues. Canning of over
green blackberries Is under wnv.
Some fresh prunes are being ship
ped.
Meadows, pastures and rnnges:
Pastures have been somewhat
freshened by rain in localities, but
are mostly dry. Irrigated alfal
fa is doing well, but most second
crop clover In unlrrigatcld districts,
Is suffering from drought. Some
local delay in haying was caused
by showers.
livestock: Itango stock Is gen
erally In good condition, Some do
mestic stock is being fed, and
there is complaint of decreasing
weight and diminishing flow of
milk.
Miscellaneous: Rome early hops!
are being picked; the main crop is
generally doing well. Late potatoes
where not Irrigated have suffered
considerably from drought. Brec
on is doing well. I

LONGFELLOWS
ORGANIZING 10
DEMAND RIGHTS
The local branch of the Lone-
fellows club, which hae its nation
al headquarters at Marsuffeld.
will perfect its organization with
in a few days, It was stated this
morning by Dr. A. O. Bates, who
has been appointed temporary
head of the organization by Ben
jamin Ostllnd of Marehfield. Ost-
Hnd 1b president of the national
organization. Just how national
tho Longfelowe are at present 's
not specifically announced, but
they are known to be spreading
rapidly.
Dr. Bates received his appoint
ment from MatSBiield yesterday.
By noon today he had secured the
names of more than 25 men who
have signified their intention of
joining the local chapter of the
order. "We want anybody who
Is eligible to get In touch right
nway," sabl Dr. Bates this morn
ing. "I'm going to Bend in a list
of nameB tomorrow or the next
day and then we'll get our chur
Any man measuring six feet or
nioro In height is eligible to be
come a member of the new order.
The purpose of the organization
is not only to get together and
have a good time meetings will
be held probably once a month
but to make a concerted demand
that certain rights, heretofore not
granted tall men, be accorded
them.
One of the first things that the
tall mon here will move to do, Dr.
Bates indicates, will be to demand
a special row of eeats in the new
theater being constructed In Sa
lem. Heretofore tne voices of tall
men have ont been heard, he says.
and theater builders have crowded
their seats together with 11 tie or
no regard for the convenience of
men built with more generous
proportions than their fellows.
"A special row of seats could be
built just as well as not," eaye Dr.
Bates, "with the row in front not
jammed quite so closo as they
usually are. It's really quite an
uncomfortable proposition for a
tall man the way sets are usually
built his knees jam into the back
of the seat in front.
'A special row could be re
served at the theater, and then
every night the management could
fill that row up last. If there
weren't enough of us on hand to
fill the row they could let some
body else have It."
As a national order the Long-
fellowB Intend to go after their
long neglected rights with hotel
owners, Pullman car companies,
automobile manufacturers, and
even clothing manufacturers. Even
now certain hotel managements
ire acquiescing to the demand and
installing longer beds, higher
doorways, etc., it is reported. The
prevailing idea seems to be that
everyone else is demanding his
rights and Bpecmi privileges, e
why not the tall men of the coun
try?
The move for a woman's auxil
iary has not been launched as yet,
but 1b believed to be imminent hs
soon as the men's organization gets
capable of staniing firmly on its
feet.
As soon as the local branch of
the order gets Its charter a busi
neea meeting will be called and
officers elected, Dr.. Bates has an
nounced. Met-nwhile he a
everyone eligible and Interested to
communicate with him at the
headquarters of the Staples Optical
company, located at the corner of
fatato and High streets.
BELGIAN WAR
DEBT SCALED
BY INTEREST
(Continued from page ine)
$248,000,000 borrowed for recon
struction work.
Must Be Ratified
The agreement subject to ratifi
cation by the American congress,
and the Belgian government, was
described as recognizing by tho
United States "weighty moral ob
ligations" as a result of assurances
given the little . country by Presi
dent Wilson at the time of the
Versailles peace conference and
also the right of Belgium to par
ticular and special treatment by
this nation.
The terms call for complete
payment within 62 years.
The 9171,780,000 loaned during
the time of actual fighting with
Germany Is to be paid free of all
accrued or future interest.
The interest on the post-armls-
tlce debt of $246,000,000 was fix
ed at the rate of 3 per cent. The
Americans agreed to forego a part
of the interest on this account for
the first ten years and arbitrary
amounts were established bringing
reduction of nearly $50,000,000.
The Belgians insisted during the
negotiations that the pre-armlstice
loan should be considered a debt
by Germany to the United States
because such a proposal was "ac
cepted by President Wilson at the
peace conference."
Americans Refused
The Americans, however, refus
ed to accept this agreement, but
declared that "while no legal ob
ligation rests upon tho United
States in the matter, there does
continue a weighty moral obliga
tion as a result of assurances giv
en which entirely differentiates
tliis sum from all other debts due
the United States from foreign
countries."
The funding program In conse
quence laid down for tho pie-arm-1st
Ice debt a schedule of re-pay
ments calling for Belgium to pay
$1,000,000 nnd the same amount
in 1927 with Increases In each of
the next years when the annual
payment becomes $2,100,000. The
annual payment then will continue
at this figure until 1987, when a
final payment of $2,280,000 will
be due.
Concerning tht post -armistice
loan, the settlement provides that
Belgium pay $1,470,000 as interest
and $1,100,000 on the principal for
the first year. The second year
tho total payment will be $3,100,
000, of which $2,000 000 will be
Interest. The charge for Interest
then increases sharply In each sue
eeding year and the payment on
principal will decrease until the end
of the ten year period. In tne
eleventh year Belgium will pay
$8,172,000 interest and $1,600,000
principal. Thereafter payments
will remain in excess of $9,000,
000 per year until the debt has
been liquidated.
It Started Something
