an Impression That Has Become
Almost Universal.
It Is an old saying that most prov

wholly contrary to fact, ...
For Instance, there Is an ancient
saw to the effect Hint "lightning never
strikes twice In the same place." This
Is absolutely untrue.

A summary of all of the prunes of
the new crop in the hands of the
Oregon Growers' Cooperative associa
tion at the end of October showed
nearly six and a quarter million
pounds had been received up to that
time. Large quantities of these
prunes have been packed and shipped
to eastern markets. Deliveries are
The United States forest service. not entirely completed and many
members of the association still have
prunes to be delivered.
Early estimates showed that the
association would handle 8,000,000
pounds of dried prunes this season
and it is expected that later de
liveries will bring, the total tonnage
up to this figure. Last year 50 per
cent more prunes were handled from
a smaller acreage the total amount
ing to more than 12,000,000 pounds.
The prunes are being processed and
packed in nine different plants in
the Willamette and Umpqua valleys.
Though the crop is light the prunes
which dreads lightning as a frequent
cause of forest tires avers that light
ning has "zones of frequency," where
in it Is likely to strike whenever there
Is an electrical storm. It suggests
that such zones might be mapped with
a view to special precautions.
These zones have reference to topog
raphy, especially In mountainous re
gions. A hill much more likely to be
struck by lighnlng than any area of
lowland because It is nearer to the
clouds.
An Isolated tree does not "attract"
lightning, as Is commonly supposed. If
It be very tall, lightning Is more apt to
strike It than to hit objects In Its
neighborhood because of Its height
merely.
For a like reason the Eiffel tower In
Faris Is often been struck by light
ning. The lofty shaft erected In honor
of the father of his country. In Wash
ington, Is a frequent target for thun
derbolts, and has to be protected
against them by an elaborate system
of lightning rods.
A high mountain top Is sure to be
struck frequently hy lightning. Rut

to uplift It beyond the ordinary level

pipe of glass, perhaps an Inch In
diameter and some inches In length.
Such pipes, called "fugurltes," are
sometimes found In large numbers on
mountain tops.

Probably the first solid car of
20-SOs ever shipped from Oregon was
shipped from Dallas about a week
ago by the association and it is likely
that there will be at least two more
cars to follow. The car brought
$10,800 from the New York market,
the prunes selling for 18 cents a
pound.
In spite of the light crop in th?
villamette valley some growers ar
reporting two tons of dried prunes
to the acre. One grower near Albanv
produced 80 tons on 40 acres, ten
tons of which were 20s. This would
be an excellent record for the best of
seasons.
The prune growers of the Umpqua
valiey are the fortunate ones this
season and a bumper yield has been
harvested u? that district. Packing
