OVER-PLANTING OF HOPS FEARED BY HOP MEN Much concern Id be!njr Mt atnniitf hi' Kiowoi ami doalcru over hop plantings which nrc hoint, tiiiide In various parts of the valley. The biff fU-majjij for hop root. It Ik reiiorlfl. ban put them up to $12 prr 1000. where tiny would normally o at $5 and from various pin ecu romi'H reports of rnnniiWralily incrcast-d acrcaffe onU tu-w iilantlriKK. Albert "".n. north end ranch er, mm fH that lnwn through llori ahl nn (I St. I'aul mictions many new planting's are Koinff In. "N'ohmly wants to hiK anything and if thei'n was plenty of room fir these hup plant in'H every hod y wiuld be welcome," tit a ted --n tod.'iy. "Hut the fituatlon will bc n nerioUH one, not only for tlie new cruwciM, hut old growers oh well If farmers run boff w.ld on planting liotH." lie cotitiiuted. "It-i isinj' hops Is different tlinn it Until to he. It runts from 1 He to Ihc a pound to raiKo hopt nowa days and with that heavy cn.it it takes a pre It y Koud mar lift for anyune to make any money. The reaxon why tin- market has been up fail ly wel, nnd It isn't up thi'i any more, in simply from the fuel ( hat t he product ion won ahout at a iiht point f'r the market. "There in a limited demand for hop and it isn't ffoliiff to ret any hlKK'!' under present condil ions. If Die crop hcK iim to sat urate t lie market' the market is ffolnj down and we are Kointf to have a lot of growers out here who are losing money every year und no Krower making it. "What wo n'-ed here more than anything else is uuality prmluction. The ouality tiiin year has been pret-1 ty poor, generally speak! up, dirty hops, poorly picked, and not at all up to standard. "We don't need more hops, but we need better ones. If wo don't ffet better hops, but do K't more hops, the uation Is KiiiK to be a tnihiy sail, one f"r a lot of peo ple. That's not propaganda. It's n mere fact, ami any dealer or re Hponsihle grower will bear me out in this dcclaratinn. lt looks like the old story, which has been repented in logan hen n s, prunes and any number of other crops I could name, which have bad their balmy days, then n smash, and then followed a period of disaster fr the growers. It was found out in spuds here the past few years that production would have to be limited or nobody could make anything. It was found out in leKaiit.ei i ies, after n great num ber i.f farmers virtually went to the wall, trying to nurse them alone. Now production and de mand in loganberries ore some ahng hand in hand, ami It is pos sible fur the grower to get by. No body is making any hig fortune in hops at a. i-'Oc market, or even higher. At 1'Oc a little money can he made, not much. If several t housaml ha les are added on to what wo already are trying to sell, the market w.ll drop below pro duction costs. "All that we ask Is that a farm er Investigate the condition care fully before he plants any hops. Ho will lie saving himself a good many headaches If he does go Into r he sltuat Ion carefully before he makes the plunge." BRITISH ADVOCATE SMALLER APPLE BOX A representative of th Vnlted States Department of Agriculture in foreign rnaiketing reports from the Imperial Kruit show held in London In November that consum er were much Interested In the in troduction of a new 20-nound box for apples, which provides a more convenient sale size to consumers, says the California Kruit News. Kdwln Kmtth, the specialist re porting, says: "Kritlwh Columbia used the oc casion of the Imperial Kruit Show for the introduction of a new 20 pnund box for apples, which they purpose to put into commercial une. The package ifl very similar to the California half pear hob. carry. ng two tiers of apples packed in the usual manner. In shipping, two half boxes are strapped togeth er, as is common with small pack ages of pears, peaches and plums. The Intent is to provide a package small enough to be convenient for purchase by the consumer. It made a widespread appeal to all of the visiting members of the trade. "A convenient package for larger unit sales to the consumer has long been wanted by our own b"X ed apple states. U would be one of the greatest factors for promot ing apple cun.sumpib.n ami would, no doubt be adopted with alacrity by many of our larger retailers. COMPROMISE IRRIGATION (Continue., from Paga On al obligations of the district. 4 -Allow the state to foster nnd encourage Bound irriga tion projects without obligat ing Itself financially, and to assist in straightening out the existing muddle without as suming and responsibility for tho outstanding Indebtedness. From the suggested bill propos ed to the Oregon Reclamation Con gress by Its legislative committee those advocating the new method of attacking the Irrigation mesR would take the suggestion that a commission he organized for the purpose of negotiating with the bond holders and the settlers a fair and equitable basis for settling the outstanding obligations of the dis tricts. Ah to whether such a com mission should be an entirely new body, or whether these tasks should be delegated to an existing commission or consolidation of commissions there is a difference of opinion. New Hoard OpMC(l Rhea Luper, state engineer, fav ors a consolidation of the desert land board and the state Irrigation securities commission Into a single board of five members comprising the governor, secretary of state, state treasurer, attorney general and either tve state superinten dent of banks or the state engin eer, and ho is supported in his po sition by those who are opposed in principle to creating useless boards and commissions. Whereas, those sponsoring the creation of n new non-salaried commission have so far put forward no plausible reasons for the need of B.ch a board, I,upr and those standing with bim have a strong argument In the economy to be secured thru consolidation of the existing de partments, and score an added point in their arguments that the state officials comprising the ex isting boards have more time to give to the work and are generally better Informed as to all of the facta entering Into the Ituation than members of a new commis sion would be. Whatever form such a commis sion might take its duties would be the name under the proposal now being offered its task would be to determine through careful in vestigation and surveys the actual conditions in the districts in de fault, and to work out a settlement based upon tne ability of the di.4 tilcts to pay. To this end the com mission shuuli!, it Is argue. 1, be authorized and empowered t , com promise the cla.m of the Plate for money advanced for th payment of Interest and for delinquent state taxes accrued and unpaid. In working out Its reorganization schemes the commission would be expected to accurately survey each project and elim'nato such lands as were found unlit or fur any rea son unsulted to piofitable utiliza tion under th pioject, thus con fining the refinancing to the cost actually necessary to tin proper delivery of wafer to those lands which can be benefitted at a figure proportionate t ti eir valuations. Seek Limited Liability In this latter connection It Is pointed out that many of the dis tricts c-mbraco considerably more land than thero is water rvailatde to irrigate, and that much of tho land is wholly unfilled to success ful cultivation u It'll or without water. In:o the proi.osed comri'omisc statute its proponents are also In clined to write the sucrre.T.lon of .State Kngineer l.uper that Oregon adopt the Colorado plan ot per mitting the issuance of refunding bonds by the distiicts which would limit the liability of each individ ual eettler to a ilcfinite portion of the district's general obligation and enable him to clear title to his land and secu.-e release from fur ther liability for the principal aud interest on the refunding bonds by payintr at any time his proportion ate share of the general lnib;h:ed ness plus 15 per cent for contin gencies, payments could be made either In cash or in bonds of the district at par, enabling tho settler to take advantage of any differ ence between the market and par value of the bonds which would also serve to increase and stabilize the market value of the bonds by creating a new demand. It has been estimated that Ger trude Kderle used approximately 20,000 strokes in her channel swim. ESTIMATES ON COOPS REVISED Washington. Pee. 21.
