PAGE TEN THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON THURSDAY, AUGUST 21, 1930 BUHER PRICES ADVANCE 1 TO 2 CENTS A POUND Portland 'IP) Advarwe in the but ter market as almost general throughout the United States dur ing trie last 24 hours. On the Portland produce exchange there vat a further rtie of 1 to 2 eenU pound for cube while but terfat showed a general advance of one cent pound for the day. The advance In the price of but ter here waa one cent except for the extreme low grade, which ad taneed two centa. The latter -m somewhat of a surprise in view of the fact that there hat been a scramble for top acore recently. However, aome of the retail hop are trying to tell butter aa cheap ly a poMlble and acore meant little or nothing to them. Thla hat brought forth agitation for a law which will compel the labeling of butter with the acore. At this time the public has no pro tection and can be sold cold stor age butter at fresh make. The advance In butterfat Is gen erally maintained although there are report of a milk war about to start. There a practically no change hi the trading price for eggs local ly for the day. An outside co-op was reported aa having met the re cent advance quoted by Manager Dixon of the Pacific co-ops and a general firming up on the tone Is Indicated. Demand for live chicken Is tak ing care of whatever stuff is now offering from the country. Prices are unchanged but there Is a fair showing of strength for light v.elght broilers and colored stock. Htremrth In the market for coun try killed calve has forced extreme top quality llghta to 18 cents. A new high for recent movement hogs are steady at 15 cents while sheep and lambs are ea?y, espec ially lambs.

In the meantime some local stock la due According to the West Coast Fruit Co, the Oregon filbert nut crop Is showing excellent prospects Already advance orders P. 8. S. are sufficient to take the entire ton nage. Demand for potatoes Is still In creasing but there continues a lark of general offering at Pacific north went sources of carload lots. Local stock Is still taking care of mo.it nerds of the home trade. Watermelons are lower again. Price of sugar is down another nickel. Lemons are off 50 cents case aith general sales S10. GROWER'S COST OF PRODUCTION IS PROFIT CLUE Corvallls (IP) While the pear growers' profits depends on tlie dif ference between market price and cost of production, the latter Is largely within the growers' control, believe Oregon Experiment station specialists who have Just compiled data obtained in a three-year study of the cost and efficiency factors In producing pears In the Rogue River valley. As yield is the dominant factor affecting production cast per box of p?ars, the grower's major problem Is efficiency In those practices which are within their control and which Increase the yield, they point out. These practices Include the amount, kind and method used In cultivation, fertilization, spraying, orchard heating, pruning, blight control and Irrigation. Labor has been found the largest tingle cost Item, representing 45 per cent of the total, with Interest on Investment comprising 25 per cent, general expenses 10 per cent, ma terials and depreciation each even per cent and marhlnery six per cent. The average Investment In bear ing pears In the Rogue district la 11000 per acre. The size of the busi ness was shown to have a pro nounced Influence on the farm In come, as the greater volume of sales from the larger orchards provided higher farm Income for the oper ators, although the labor income per acre was less than from the smaller orchards. The 20 Pr cent most pro fitable farms had 57 acres of bear ing pears, while the average farm bad but 30 acres. A detailed report of the findings resulting from this study has Just been issued in pamphlet form by Ralph 8. Reese, farm management specialist. W. 8. liroan, horticultur ist, and L. P.

LABISH ONIONS NOT EXPECTED TO MOVE EARLY T.mu rrrr.nr f ftir. fm the Lake Labih section is expected until later in the fail after Walla Walla crop has been disposed of, L. S. Ha yea of the Hayes farms. Lake Labiah, stated Thursday. The Labish onions are being harvested and stored in warehouses in that district awaiting a more favorable market, Hayes says. The Walla Walla onion must be put on the market immediately after reaching maturity because they are not of a good quality. The eastern mar ket has not revived to any great extent, onions being quoted there at $1.75, while freight of $1.10 a hundred must be deducted. The mint crop on the Haves' holdings is a good one this year, although some fields In that section are below the average. Just what the oil will bring this year is an uncertain matter, Hayes believes. He has heard rumors that lack of moisture in the large mint produc ing eastern states has cut down the yield to a large extent. Hayes has nothing official on this however, since the government does not is sue bulletins on mint. ROBINSON CALLED TO START RELIEF (Continued from page 1) loan set-up as a knotty financial problem. They must work without any but general authority from congress and must refrain from us ing federal funds except such .as are indirectly available. Friends of Mr. Hoover believe the same credit plan used in Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana during the Mississippi river flood wilt be employed. Under ths plan, bankers and leading citizens of each state would organize groups to endorse notes which would be accepted by the in termediate credit banks. The banks would issue debentures to cover their advance. Secretary of Agriculture Hyde. Is preparing to lend some Immediate seed loan assistance to fanners In certain states. He had discovered hi department has a surplus of $800,000 remaining from a $6,000. 000 appropriation made by congress a year ago to enable southeastern farmers to get seed loans directly from the government.

MRS. KENNEDY TALKS TOO MUCH IS CLAIM (Continued from page 1) and added that she once had to lock Mrs. Kennedy in a closet be cause "she talked so much." While the battle raged between Miss Waldron and Mrs. Kennedy the evangelist herself was at her Malibu beach cottage recovering from a nervous breakdown and preparing for a possible appear ance on the platform of her "Four-Square" gospel church Sun day. Her physicians have warned her that she must not become ex cited if she Is to recover quickly from her nervous collapse. So far she has Issued no reply to Mrs. Kennedy's latest accusa- tion that "she once threatened to have me killed." Mrs. Kennedy charged that Miss Waldron "has sister in her con trol." "Mrs. Kennedy and I haven't spoken since the big argument," Miss Waldron answered. 'She Just Is angry because I locked her In the closet to keep her quiet 8he was saying all sorts of things about me. "Her nose Isn't broken, either. She Just had an operation on It. She says sister broke her nose Just to gain sympathy. Sister didn't strike her at all." Miss Waldron's admission of a part In the scene that ended with Mrs. Kennedy's withdrawal from the church completed the story of that episode as all sides had been told. All principals agreed that Miss Waldron and her position of pow er In Angelus temple caused the battle but there tne agreement ended. Mrs. Kennedy claimed her life was threatened and she suffered a broken nose when she was knocked down by her daughter. Mrs. McPherson'sald her mother fell to the floor In a tontrum and that if her nose was Injured It was when she fell. "Nothing but Mrs. Kennedy's dlg nty was hurt," declared Miss Wald ron. Mrs. Kennedy reiterated the charge that the present turmoil over Mrs. McPherson's illness was a plot to aid In wresting control of An gelus temple from the evangelist. "Sister doesn't have any Idea about how to do business and she already has almost lost the temple," Mrs. Kennedy said. "All she has now Is a note for t250.000. "Certain people are trying to make her look crazy so that they can declare sne is not restionslble and grab the temple from her." "What she ought to do Is to ao back to Angelus temple right away and show her people that she Is all right. She ought to be proud to let them see how much more beautiful she is with her new face lift." Miss Waldron declared that Mrs. Mcpherson was recovering from a nervous breakdown and had under gone no facial operation. Mrs. Mc pherson, herself, would make no comment on the matter. Dr. E. H. Williams, physician and psychariast, was authority for the announcement Mrs. Mcpherson might be back in her pulpit Sun day. In the face of medical authority to the contrary. Miss Emma Schaef- fer, trusted secretary of the evan gelist, again told Angelus temple members that "sister still is blind." Miss Schaeffer, who was with Mrs. Mcpherson when the latter assertedly was kidnapped from a beach four years ago, then success fully introduced a resolution which called for three days of fasting and prayer lor Mrs. McPherson's re covery.

Of re cent years some have been experi menting with only tramping the very top part with good results.

H. VanTrump, county fruit inspect or stated Thursday after visiting numerous orchards. Although the yield this year will be an average one, many orchards are reporting a heavy drop of mature pears from no apparent reason. The price for valley pears appar ently sill be around $25 a ton, although some have been sold as low as 120, Van Trump states. A few carloads of Grants Pass fruit have been brought into Salem, these pears having txn purchased for VanTrump believes valley pears are unjustly discriminated against as compared with fruit shipped in from Yakima and the Rogue river valley. Canners claim local pears will not "stand up' In the cans as the others, stating they get "fuz zy" around the edges after being put into the cans. The inspector states the bench lands of the Wil lamette valley can grow pears the equal to anything shipped in. He has disposed of his crop to the Woodburn cannery this year. The buyers of that plant state that-If they could obtain fruit of this qual ity in sufficient quantity there would be no need to bring fruit in from the outside. VanTrump's pears are grown on bench land near Mt. Angel. DISCUSS SPECIAL LEGISLATJVESESSION 'Continued from pace 1) way. The movement, he said, likely had its inspiration in the recent fil ings of private power companies on the largest of the power sites re maining In the state feasible for private development, referring to the applications of the California Oregon Power company on the North Umpqua and Klamath rivers, and those of the Northwest Power company on the waters of the San tiam river and Marion lake, which latter rights are also sought by the city of Salem for municipal power and water supply purposes. These three applications, If ap proved, would place In private hands practically all of th feasible power sites in the state, Luper said. They have already bee approved by the federal department and are pending before the state reclama tion commission. As the request for a special legis lation is understood here it con templates the enactment of legis lation permanently withdrawing all unappropriated water sites in the state from filings except for public development and to grant priority rights to municipalities and other governmental units In the appro priation of water for public purpos es. The question Is raised in state house rirrleff fl in whetVta- .h. legislature has authority to enact retroactive legislation which would withdraw from appropriation power sites which private interests have made application and preliminary filings in full conformity with ex isting statutes.

DENY SHORTAGE OF WATER IN OREGON Continued from page 1) said some shortage of feed crops In Harney and Crook counties was prevalent but that taking eastern Oregon as a whore crops are nearly normal in spite of a series of years subnormal rainfall. H. A. Llndgren, extension live stock specialist, reported that the Harney district was seriously short of wild hay because of three dry years but the Blue mountain region had a surplus. The telegram sent by the Bend chamber of commerce to President Hoover, as quoted by L. K. Cramb. secretary of the chamber, in a let ter to Governor Norblad, read as follows: In line with your program of droueth relief in middle west w desire to bring to your attention . more serious conditions In central Oregon due to shortage of water for irrigation and venture to suggest immediate investigation and action by national government. Due to dry cycle water in Des chutes river and other rivers and in lakes insufficient to supply ail lands within irrigation districts and unless relief is provided sev eral hundred families will lose re sults of years of effort and their farms will be abandoned. "Relief possible through action by national government at com paratively small expenditure in providing additional storage and the eelimination of use of water for power p urposes. Entire cost to government could be repaid by water users. Unless relief can be assured within short time lots will be irreparable." Cramz's letter to the governor concludes: "We believe an emergency exists here that should command the sympathy and attention of the national government. It seems be yond local control. We venture to suggest your assistance in urging the national government to give relief." Cramb's letter V.T& dated last Monday, and stated that the tel egram to the president was sent Saturday. He mentioned this condition as obtaining in other streams and lakes in the district and reiterated Cramb's suggestion of how the na tion algovernment could give re lief. neer alone, except where matters of public welfare are shown to be involved, when the matter goes to the reclamation commission for final consideration. Of the three major filinps Luper said, explain ing that the application on the Umpqua involves the state game com m ission wh ich operates a hatchery on that river, and the Umpqua special highway improve ment district. Luper also disclosed that the secretary of the "Klamath Irriga tion distrirt has notified him that the district desires to file a pro test on the Klamath river applica tion, and that he has given them until September 2 to file the pro test.
