The berries are not only abun dant but of the b>est quality. A price o f five cents a pound ir assuied and it will probably advance still higher. Pickers will be paid two cents a pound and may get a bonus Local growers have contracts with the Gresham Berry Growers,, Libby, ivlcNeili and Libby, the Scenic Can nery, Gresham Packing Co. and othei leceiving stations. Heavy Crop o f Filberts Carroll D. Bush| o f the Bush Nut Nursery at Barton and Fred W. Bates o f Eagle Creek report a heavy crop o f filberts thiuout this territory. There is also a heavy crop of waN nuts. Quality is first class. The nut growers will get twice as much foi their product this year as compared to last year’s receipts. This is due laigely to the fact that no nuts are being imported from Europe and the nation’s domestic demands must be met entirely by home nut growers Mr. Bush also reports thhat there is a good demand for giapes. The De Slvazer Wine company o f Poitland is now contracting with local growerv and it is understood the price is $3<, a ton.
