Monmouth Meditations The Varly rising law will be with is next week and ill of the clocks must be set an hour ahead ofi Sun day. While this law is pupuar with workers who put in regular hours rnd not too many of them.j the farmer whose hours already tike advantage of all the hours of daylight, is inclined to look upon it as an imposition. It is quite evident that not all of the authorities are agreed there will be a large surplus of wheat next year and among them is Mr. Hoov er. The following is well worthy of thoughtful attention and is from a recent isue of the Economist, a journal relied on largely by specula tors for advance information in fnancial lines. he statement, of Food Adminis ,iator Hoover regarding the wheat supply of the world and his opinion that "it should be possible to mar-1 ot the whole of next year's crop t' ut loss to the government" is n' ed to respectful consideration! c; use it is Hoover, who is, m a 10: tion to know more about sup plies and deliveries than anybody else. The statisticians, government rd private, on which most depen . ' : ; 1-i.rf n frre been placed indicate a large accumufation at the present time 'and the pro!abilily of a' heavy excess for '.the remainder of this year and 1920, but Mr. Hoover, conceding that our crop may be 10 to 20 per cent greater in 1919 than it was in 1918, declares that Russia, India, Bulgaria, Serbia and Kou mania, whiih all exported large amounts of grain before the war, must be importers for the whole of next year. Famine has necessita ted the removal of a large part of the Australian wheat to India, and Australia's supply accumulating for years, has largely spoiled. The cur rent Australian crop is small. Cen tral European seeding, he says, will be below normal. He concludes that we may see wheat ut $3J0 a bushel as it was in the spring of 1917 if there is a free market. As to such a market he finds that to lower the price of flour by 50 per cent would reduce the price of a one-pound loaf only from 9 or 10 to 7 or 8 cents because largely the in crease in the cost of the loaf is due to higher wages, manufacturing cost and Uie cost of other supplies. So long as the market is closed it is possibly a matter of secondary im portance to the Chicago trader what the price of wheat is, though it, is important to the farmer, who would be quite willing to get more than the $2.26 for his grain, but Mr. Hoover's statement indicates that there may be another side to the question of the world's supply and also another side to the claim that the market should be thrown open. Big Demand at Big Prices Raspberries and Loganberries Raspberries There will be an ex tensive acreage planted to strawber ries this season and when they come into bearing, which will be In 1920 there will be a generous supply. It might be of general interest to learn that 50 percent of all the jel lies, jams and preserves manufac tured throughout the country are from strawberries; 33 'per cent from raspberries and the balance of 17 per cent from loganberries, goose berries, ctlrrants and kindred ber ries. What we desire to impress upon you is the importance and ad visibility of greatly increasing the production of raspberries and logan berries. In Oregon there are very few raspberries grown. In fact, the quantity is so small as to be hardly considered, and it will be many, many years before there will be sufficient supply to meet the re quirements of the Oregon manufac turers. There can be but one solu tion and that is to plant more rasp berries of the Cuthbert variety and when you stop for a moment and consider that we are willing to pay $190.00 per ton for raspberries now in bearing and $160.00 per ton for new plantings coming into bearing in 1920 and $140.00 for 1921, and when planted on good soil and capa ble of producing from 3 to 5 tons per acre, it can readily be seen the profits which can be derived there from. We can supply you with plants at $6.00 per 1000, and now is the time to prepare your ground and plant them. . Loganberries There is a con stantly increasthg demand for lo ganberries. These are finding an enlarged market, but there are not enough berries to go around. The market price ftoday "is $140.4)0 per ton for loganberries in bearing, wh'h is the highest price ever paid in Oregon. Manufacturers can absorb the product from an addi tional 2000 acres at a price which will leave a large profit to the grow er. We can furnish you with plants at $15.00 per 1000 and in addition protect you with a long term eon tract. We' want to create a de mand for loganberries on a parity with strawberries and with your help we can bring it about. Our selling staff is prepared to put Ore gon's product in every city of the United States and the world and all under OREGON BRANDS. We are doing our share. We are willing to spend, and we are spending thousands of dollars to advertise the products of the Willamette Valley and we need your active cooperation and we urge you to plant new acre age to raspberries and loganberries uiis spring. - We welcome your letters of in quiry and upon request will gla mail you our booklet on "Berr and How to Grow Them."
