Polk County Observer J. C. HAYTER, KDITOR ATvTIJ PUBUgHER, Published Weekly and. Semi - Weekly at $1.50 per Year. 8trlctlv In Advance. DALLA8,OREGON,Jui.y2!, 1907. The way to build up Dallas ts to pat ronise Dallas peoplt. i The meanest of all men who edit, Are those who clip and don't give credit. Judge. It is said by the fruit farmers in the Salem district that the Phenomenal berry will eventually supplant the Loaanberrv. The reason for this opinion is that the sharp acid of the Losranberrv attacks the metal of the cans, making it impracticable to seal them In any but glass jars. While this will not impair their value for domestic use, it will put them entirely beyond the pale of commercial value, except as they can be sold while fresh On the other hand, the Phenomenal berry has all the good points of the Loganberry and Is also well adapted to canning, because of its sweetness.

The people of Dallas, where a free library has been success fully maintained for three years, will heartily indorse the above sentiment To Mrs. George T, Gerlinger and the good women who so ably assisted her with their time and talents in establishing the library and placing it on a solid foundation, our city owes a debt of gratitude it can never pay. In a letter to the California Fruit Grower, H. C. Atwell, president of the Oregon State Horticultural Society, estimates the output of prunes this year at 22,000,000 pounds for Oregon and 5,000,000 pounds for Washington. This is a larger estimate than was made by growers earlier in the season. Prices range high in the Northwest, while in California the market is almost at a standstill. A large portion of California's old stock has been con tracted for August and September shipment at prices ranging from 3c to 4-e. The appearance of these old prunes alongside of the new crop from Oregon and Washington will not be such as will redound to the credit of California, but will serve as an excel lent foil to set off the merits of our shipments.
