Early Estimates of $50,000
Harvest of Evergreens to Be
Eclipsed as Result of Im
proved Growing Conditions.
Early estimates of $50,0U0 for tbe ever
green blackberry crop in Lut ouuty
will be eclipsed aa the reault of the re
cent heavy rainfall which baa aerred to
increase the quantity and improve the

buyers who are offering aiz centa a
pound for the product of tbeae bushes,
which grow wild in all parte of the coun
ty, and adrertiaing broadcaet in their
efforta to induce people to pick. Tbe
picking seasm baa juat begun and will
covet t a period of aeveral weeka. The
jerrief grow very prolific and it ia es
timated that a man or woman under
aitr.ige comlitiona abould be able to
pa luu pounds.
In former years tbouaanda of tona uf
theee berriea have been permitted to dry
on the vinea. It haa been only recently
that bakers have come to regard thia
berry aa the beat of all varietiee for
making pica, berauae of ita meaty Datura
and tbe fact that under beat it doca U"t

States government came into tbe mar
ket fur tbe firat time and the supply
of thrae berriea deaired for the uae of
the army and navy thia year ia largely
reaponaible for tba prevailing high price.
The berriea firat began to have a mar
ket value five yeara ago when tbe Eu
gene Fruit Growers' association purchst
ed a email amount. Laat year the aeaocia
tion bandied 368,000 pounda and expects
to purchaae 400.000 pounda during the
