ALLEN STARTS
BARRELING OF
APRICOT CROP
Barreling of apricots is expected
to be started ai the Allen Fruit
company next week, the apricots
coming down here from Yakima.
The concern lat year made an ex
perimental pack of a car of barreled
apricots and will double the amount
this year, as the first shipments
proved satisfactory. The apricots
are barreled in brine in the same
manner as cherries and are process
ed by the receiving firm. They go
mainly into glace fruit, although
they are u&ed for fruit cakes and
other purposes. Last year some
fresh prunes were also put in brine
by the same firm, but whether or
not this will be repeated this year
is not known.
W. G. Allen, head of the fruit
company, has samples of apricots
which were brined and later con
verted into glace fruits, the sam
ples showing results from both
green and ripe apricots with the
verdict all being in favor of the
ripe article. He stated there is a
general conception that fruit loses
its flavor in being put through the
sulphur brining process, but he
says the experiments shuw that
fruit gets Its flavor back after the
sulphur is removed and that for
glace pack especially, the ripe fruit
has proved to be much preferable.
The Allen Fruit company is also
working on its fruit concentrates
which it has been developing lor
some years, and is putting up good
sized packs of these concentrates,
especially in loganberries and cher
ries and will also put up a consid
erable quantity of prune juice in this
form.
The concern plans to can a large
prune pack, including about 1000
tons of prunes from VV. G. Allen's
own orchard and additional tonnage
which it has contracted.

Analysis Made of
New AAA Bill with
Ever-Normal Granary
Washington, July 21 (P) How would the Jones bill
try to establish fair prices and incomes for farmers and a
stable food supply for consumers? By regulating the flow
of farm products to maket under a
quota system. Each farm would be
given an acreage and marketing at
lotment of such major products as
wheat, corn, rice, cotton and to
bacco. What would be done with surplus
crops the portion not needed for
domestic competition and export?
They would be stored in granaries
for release in years of crop fai
lures, thus keeping the supply "ever
normal." Sponsors say such stor
age would tend to stabilize prices for
the benefit of both producer and
consumer.
Would farmers be required to
comply with acreage and marketing
quotas?
No, but those who did not com
ply would be denied cash benefit
PLAN CAULIFLOWER
CONTROL IN OREGON
Washington, July 21 (A) A mar
kPting agreement to regulate ship
ments of cauliflower grown in Ore
gon, the agricultural adjustment ad
ministration said yesterday, will be
placed in effect July 23.
Hie agreement and an order mak
ing It effective will regulate ship
ments of cauliflower by grades and
sizes and pro-rate shipments to out
side markets during the growing
season.
The program will be administered
by a control committee made up of
four members representing coopera
tive handlers, five members repre
senting independent handlers, three
members representing northern dis
trict growers, and one member rep
resenting growers in the southern
district.
The agreement also will enable the
industry to use surplus removal op
orations of the federal government
as an outlet for surplus production.
Cherry Growers Lose
By Delaying Sales
Aurora Clackamas county cherry
growers lost some $1,200 this year by
not marketing their crop promptly,
according to Carlos Johnson of
Johnson Feed and Produce com
pany. This firm bought around 20
tons of fruit and turned down at
least 10 tons which were over-ripe
and wormy.
"Too many growers decided to
market their fruit after it was out
of condition," Johnson said. "Some
of them thought that by waiting
until the cherries were riper they
could get more weighi on the fruit,
The fruit became heavier all right,
but part of the weight was worms,'
the produce man said.
He asked that cherry growers be
more alert next year to pick the
fruit while it was in good condi
Uon and not too ripe.

Cherry Yield Good
Monmouth An unusually large
crop of cherries has been harvested
in the Powell orchards located
northwest of Monmouth. Fifty or
more pickers were given employ

M06t of the pickers were from the
vicinity of Monmouth and Inde

of cherries of a good quality. The
crop was marketed through a co

How would surplus products find
their way into the granary?
The secretary of agriculture could
require farmers receiving cash bene
fits to store up to 20 per cent of
their crop. Loans would be allow
ed on the stored portion.
How would stored surpluses be
released In poor crop years?
By calling in the loans. It is
presumed that most farmers would
place on the market such stored
products to obtain funds to retire
loans.
Suppose surpluses filled granary
needs; what steps would be taken
to bring production in line with
consumption?
Processing taxes would be levied
on the major crops. Funds raised
by these taxes would be used to
increase benefit payments to far
mers complying with acreage and
marketing quotas.
In what other ways is the bill de
signed to help farmers?
It authorizes the secretary to help
farmers obtain lower freight rates
on their products. It also authorizes
expenditure of $10,000,000 a year
for developing new uses for farm
products.

LEAD CANADA
IN SHIPMENTS
Ch icago, July 2 1 W Canada's
long occupied position as major ex
porter of wheat, grain traders said
today,' may be assumed by the
United States this year.
In the Chicago grain marts pri
vate experts figured the United
States would get an exportable sur
plus of about 140,000,000 bushels
out of Its biggest wheat crop In six
years.
This would compare with appro
ximately 100,000,000 bushels, count
ing he available carryover, which
they estimated as Canada's ex
portable surplus.
The traders' views were based on
reports of prolonged drought and
spread of rust in Canadian wheat
fields as well as the prospect of a
bumper domestic crop.
Probable Canadian production
was estimated recently by private
sources at 125,000.000 to 175,000,000
bushels. Rains last week over Al
berta. Saskatchewan and Manitoba.
the major gain producing provinces,
were believed to have raised the es
timate to near the latter figure.
The long time average Canadian
production Is In excess of 300,000,000.
Last year drought was blamed for a
decline to 212.000,000. The United
States Imported much of Canada's
surplus crop In the drought years
of 1935 and 1936.
