' '."r "" n-miii-.m .ij.,g.n m I ujij liiifet!!iiylH' Berry Picking Device Viewed . Aurora Art Needham, berry grower of Canby'a Riverside district, returned last week from Puyallup, Wash., where he had gone to see a new, low- i cost raspberry-picking machine Cjn operation. The device is the invention of Paul Names, Puyallup grower, and Mr. Needham said it is the most practical mechani cal picker for raspberries he has seen yet. Mr. Needham said a field of berries has to be trained on wires in the exactly the right way in order to utilize the picking machine, and for that reason it will be two years be , fore he can put one into opera tion. The pickers shakes the ripe berries onto catching board from the bearing stalks, which are trained and bunched on wires. New stalks for the fol lowing year's crops are trained simultaneously on another set of wires. ' Inventor Names calls the picker a "two force harvester." Mr. Needham estimates it will do the work of about ten fast hand pickers. New Edifice Keizer's Community church, conducted for years in the basement, at last is under construction. Material is being obtained at cost and members of the congregation are donating their labor for the construction. Charlotte Kil day, left foreground, pauses in her lawn work to view structure.

S. By SHERRY BOWEN New York W) U.S. quadruplet records have been broken in 1952.- With several months of the year remaining, four living sets have been born. Three sets who all remained alive made 1046 the previous record year. The only other years in which at least two sets were born and stayed alive were 1951, 1944 and 1941. This information comes from records kept by Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Cirminello, now of New York City, whose own quad ruplets were born in Pennsylvania in 1944. So far as they know they have the only such records. Their tally of living American quads is 22. They have made no attempt to keep files on sets of quad ruplets of whom some were born dead or where some of the babies died later. The first living set was born to Mr. and Mrs. Flake M. Keys in 1915 all girls. Not that quadruplets hadn't been born pre viously. But that was the first date on which medical know ledge had advanced to the point where all four could be kept alive. The Cirmlnellos have reports of quadruplets born in the United States as far back as 1806. In 1951 they predicted that an increasing number of sets would be kept alive because of the advance of medical know ledge. Events seem to be bearing that out. After the 1915 set, it was 1929 before the four boys of Mr, and Mrs. Joseph Perricone survived. The Perricone set is the only one of the 22 which is all boys. In fact boys are in the mi nority. Of the 88 people in the 22 sets, 34 are boys and 54 girls The Cirmlnellos. whose own set includes three girls and a boy, speculate that survival for boys in sets of quadruplets is more difficult than for girls, but the four 1952 sets are evenly divided between boys and girls. A study by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. shows quad ruplets appear once in 620,000 births. With more than three and a half million births a year in the United States, the survival rate for quads apparently is still low. Here is the way the Cirminellos list the 22 living sets in the United States: PARENTS' NAME Keys. Flake H. Perricone. Joseph Marlock. Carl A, flehense. Fred Ksspars. Emtl Blodsett, E. W.
