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

Quadruplets Born This Year
Set Ail-Time Record in U. 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:
