BERRY INTERESTS TO
MEET AT SALEM WEDNESDAY
Oregon City Woolen Mills have found particularly our fruits, salmon, lum
ber, etc. It is setimatea inai camer
as have many other advertisers, that
by putting the merits of their prod
ucts squarely before the nation, they
have enlarged their business and thus
absorbed the cost of advertising in the
economics of operation.
This advertising for the Oregon
City Woolen Mills is handled by Bots-ford-Constantine
company, the lcad-
irtut need of more national advertis
ing for Oregon product, Many of
our renders probably saw in last
wet-k'a issue of the Saturday Kvenlng
Pot n double page center spread ad-
w-UMTnetit in colors for the Oregon
City Woolen Mill. In two different
iuufs of the Saturday Evening Post
thi year the Oregon City Woolen
Mill have taken this great adverti.se-
meiit, which i the largest ana mom
eiM-iTive advertisement in the world.
It's cont is 117,000 per Ukuv, but the
northwest, with offices at Portland
nnd Seattle. Botsford-Constantine
company is also conducting large ad-i-pi-tisintr
cumnai?ns in all parts of
the country for such products as Till
amook cheese, Hood River apples,
Snowflake crackers, Albers cereals,
Mapleine, Jantzen swimming suits,
Goodyear rubier footwear, and
others.
Oregon is rapidly approaching the
point where we should have many
other nationally advertised products,
nia cooperative associations and such
products as the Del Monte canned
goods are spending around six million
dollars a year for national advertis
ing. This has helped to build the
wonderful reputation for California
products which exists in all parts of
the world.
If you sit down and think you will
realize these lower skirts are merely
for higher education.
Women powder their noses in pub
lie, so why can't men shave on the
street cars as they ride to work?
Have you heard about the Scotch
man hunting, a reasonable postoffice?
Our idea of a good time is sitting
around wondering how tired we
would get if we were not too lazy.
Salem The loganberry industry of
this part of the Willamette valley
which is again facing: a very uncer
tain future, due to low prices, will be
fully discussed at a meeting called of
all berry growers of Oregon, to be
held in the offices of the Oregon
Growers' Cooperative association,
' Wednesday, December 20.
The associations especially inter
ested in the future of the loganberry
and which will send delegates to the
meeting- include the Woodburn Coop
erative Berry Growers, Springbrook ,
Packing company, Producers Canning
company of Salem, Willamette Valley
Prune association of Salem, Oregon
Growers1 Cooperative association of
Salem and the Eugene Fruit Growers
association of Eugene.
During the season of 1922, there
was canned in Oregon, 243,639 cases
of loganberries. Figured on a basis
of 30 pounds to a case, this means
that 7,309,170 pounds of fresh berries
were used in the 1922 pask of canned
goods.'
In addition to loganberries canned,
King's Products company evaporated
4,000,000 pounds. It is also estimated
that in Oregon there was barrelled
3000 barrels of 385 pounds each,
amounting to 1,115,000 pounds. It is
estimated there was made into juice
200,000 pounds of loganberries.
Among those deeply interested in
this great Oregon industry, it is felt
that all will depend upon increasing
the consumption of loganberry prod
ucts. In other words, following the
example of California growers in ad
vancing the sale of raisins when the
market was so low that the industry
was about to collapse, something
must be done to bring the merits of
the berry before a larger consuming
public
Figures are not available as to the
acreage of fruits for 1922 as asses
sore are obliged to make a report only
every other year. Hence the 1921
reports on acreages in the state are
the latest
Based on the 1921 horticultural re
port of acreages in each county, the
total loganberry acreage of the state
for the year was 6253. In the central
Willamette valley the county acreage
in 1921 was as follows: Benton, 100;
Clackamas, 204; Linn, 167; Marion,
38G8; Polk, 268; Washington, 319, and
Yamhill. 423, a total of 5349 acres
for thij immediate section of the
valley.
Comparing the year 1920 and 1921
report, it is estimated that there was
an increase of several hundred acres
throughout the state. In the Willam
ette valley counties, there ras a
slight decrease.
Many growers claim that the in
dustry cannot survive on a price of
four cents a pound. Many are asking
for six cents the coming season, but
those who are familiar with the in
dustry at both the growing and sell
ing end, are of the opinion that if
loganberry growing is to continue
profitable, there must be a great in
crease in markets and a much greater
consuming public.
