OREGON GRADING JOB ON COAST HIGHWAY COSTS $100,000 Portland, tPt The tat high way commission, at a special meet ing here Thureday, uathorlxed one mile of grading on the Oregon coast highway In Douglas county at a cost of $100,000. The unit will be north of Gardiner and will be financed on a co-operative basis. The commission received assur ances that Douglas county will contribute 2O.O0O, the road district at Gardiner will contribute $5,000 and as these offerings are on a 25 er cent basis it will mean the cost of the unit will be $100,000. Con struction at that point Is extremely heavy, commissioners said, as most of the road will have to be blasted out of solid rock. Bids for this project will be ad vertised at the March meeting and work probably will start in early summer.

The paintings are several "miles from the picture gorge which la at the head of the Oorge lead ing to the world famous fossil beds of the John Day country. To eliminate two bad curves on the cratCT lake highway near prospect, the commission ordered a project of one half mile grading, bids to be opened at the March meeting.

The society each year appoints committees to investigate general conditions affecting each variety of fruit, taking Into consideration the national agricultural outlook re port and all available marketing Information. More than three-fourths of the world's production of 'dried prunes is in the three Pacific coast states, the report states. The 1929 esti mated world production was only 292,000.000 pounds or 55 per cent of the three year average from 1926 to 1929 or under 50 per cent of the 1927 output of 598,000,000 pounds. The Pacific Noruiwest, it is esti mated, produced 72,000,000 pounds of which 60.000.000 pounds were grown in Oregon and 20,000.000 pounds of this state's crop came from the Umpqua valley. In Cali fornia the report states a moderate business Increase is expected until 1931 when acreage and production in all coast states will likely be come about stationary. European crops, it is estimated are decreasing and will continue to decrease for several years. Foreign markets are becoming in creasingly Important for Pacific coast dried fruits and 50 per cent of the output for several years has oeen exported. The Umpqua valley It is stated has about 11,000 acres, in prunes producing on an average approxi mately 2,000 pounds per acre. somewhat higher than the average ior tne state or Oregon. Since the cost of production de pends very largely upon the yield per acre, the recommendation is made in the report that unless an orchard will produce one ton or more of dried fruits per acre, it should either be brought up to that point or eliminated. . Prune growers are also urged through soil management, pruning and fertilization to make every ef- iort to increase the size of the fruit, in order to obtain the higher prices offered by buyers for the larger sizes. Development of a greater mar ket for canmVl green fruit is also urged and encouragement is being given local canneries in an effort to build up a larger market for the canned products. In keeping the recommendations of the federal farm board the county horticultural society urges that the production be kept within the bounds of consumption de mands and that, therefore, there be no further expansir, rf the prune business in any variety. The recommendatiijii also Is made that more efficient and modern merchandising methods should be adopted and that federal grades should be established and that an advertising funds should be cre ated, possibly by the levy of a quar ter cent per pound on all fruit sold to the paekers.
