Portland — Fifteen thousand fruit
trees, the number o f donations to the
premium list for the Pacific North
west Land Products show |which were
predicted by Manager G. E. A. Bond,
have already been offered by nurseries
of the Pacific Coast.
"T h e total number o f trees that
will be available for premiums will
far exceed my first estimate.” said
Mr. Bond, ‘ ‘ and may come nearer 20,-
000 than 16,000, judging from present
indication.’ ’
To the 8,000 trees otfered by differ
ent nurseries more than a month ago
have lately been added 7500 by other
nurseries in Chico, Woodburn, Salem,
Milton, Carlton, Toppenish, Hood
River, Sunnyside, Washington, Louis
iana, Missouri and Roy, Utah.
In addition to the trees offered, im
plement companies and companies
dealing in fruitgrowers’ accessories
are sending daily to Mr. Bond offers
o f their materials for use in the com
pilation o f his premium list.
Ten o f the prominent fruitgrowers
periodicals of the Northwest and the
Middle West have each offered 60 an
nual subscriptions to the commercial
clubs winning prizes for community
exhibits at the Land Products show.
The premium list in its final form
will be published during the first
week in September. In the meantime
Mr. Bond is sending out thousands of
circulars to agricuralists in all parts of
the Northwest, acquainting them with
the purposes and scope of the show.
