ATTOKNKY-AT-LAW NOTARY PUBLIC A campaign started by the company for the growth of the fruit-canning industry in this state promises to bring about the best results. Under the direction of Charles Malboeuf, district freight agent for the Oregon lines, a great industry in the can ning of small fruits will be built up in Western Oregou. It is Mr. Mal boeuf 's plan to make this industry as important in Oregou as fruit- I growing and preserving in Califor nia. This can easily be done, he says, by encouraging the marketing of green fruit and the increase of canneries in this state. Mr. Malboeuf has attended a number of meetings of fruitgrowers in various parts of the Willamette vallef, and his project has been fav ored. He has promised very favor- Jffice: kooms J, 4 and 5.

Generous reductions have been made in the tariffs for the benefit of the fruit grower and canner, and during the coming year there will be large tracts throughout the valley planted to small fruits.

Favorable con- ditions throughout Western Oregon have made the yield a large one. Will practice; in anj Within the past two years the peo ple of the valley have planted large numters of blackberry, loganberry, raspberry, and other fruit roots. largely with the view of marketing the truit in Portland. "The very large yield this sum mer exceeded the most sanguine expectations, and the Portland mar ket wasoversupplii-d. Nearly iooo tons of cherries aloue were shipped from the Willamette valley to the Puget Sound canneries, as the Western Oregon canneries could not handle the crop. KNCOI RACK SMALL FARMING. "Realizing the conditions, and with the desire to encourage an in dustry so well suited to the climate in Western Oregon, the Southern Pacific company is fostering in every way the cultivation of small fruits and the establishment of canning establishments. The result will be a more extensive cultivation and the dividing up of large farms into smaller tracts. Many of the can neries that will be established will be built and operated on the co op erative plau. It is the intention of the Southern Pacific to aid in every way the introduction of the best varieties of small fruits, and to as sist their cultivation bv scientific methods. This work is bringing results. A number of canning establish ments will be erected within a short time. At present there are two fruit canneries at Portland, and others at Salem, Springbrook, Eu- state, outside of Portland, during 1906, was less than 50 carloads, This year the output is larger and by next year there should be nearly 100 carloads for shipment to the Eastern markets. Within the next five years, shipments of tinned fruits from Western Oregon should amount to 1000 cars a year. CONTRAST IS STRIKING. "There is quite a contrast with California on the fruit output. Cal ifornia ships 60,000 cars a year of fruit products, exclusive of wines, Of this amount, 35,000 cars are or anges and lemons, 10,000 cars dried fruits, 8000 cars green fruits and about 6000 cars canned fruits. large part of the fruit raised in Cal ifornia is grown with the aid of irri gation. In the Willamette valley there is no need for irrigation. The best cherries in the world are grown here with scarcely any attention Berries raised here without lrriga tion are equal to any grown in any part of the country. I am informed on the best authority that the Cali fornia fruitgtower realizes much more profit from his canned fruits than from that he dries. "The output of green and dried fruit in the territory served by the Oregon lines of the Southern Pacific does not exceed 1000 cars a year, With the promotion of the canning industry and the raising of large amounts of small fruits, this figure will be much increased." .Mr. Malbocut savs the canning industry should equal the creamery business in this state, and he is sat isfied it will do so within the next lew years. How great the cream ery iudustry is in Oregon is gener ally known. It is interesting to know that Mr. Malboeuf has much to do with turning the attention of Oregonians to the possibilities of the creamery business in Oregon, and he secured the location in this state of the largest milk and cream condenser now operating in Oregon. The campaign just begun by 'the Southern Pacific will be carried on energetically throughout the year, and it is hoped to have many more canneries in operation by next Sum mer. Morning Oregonian.

This has been stated before but there seems to be a general misunderstanding about it, judging from the letters received here. All of the 400,000 leaflets adver tising the low rates to Oregon will be in circulation before the close of this week, a record in advertising never before excelled in the United States. The prominent citizens of New York composing the Brooklyn League went away delighted with Oregon. A report comes from Chicago that the Trans-continental Passen ger association will never again make colonist rates after those now in effect and to continue until Octo ber 31st, so that the people of Ore gon should mate tne most 01 me present opportunity.

These studies are not confined to the well known trees of recognized value, but, owing to the rapid de crease in the supply ot our valuable woods, include those cheaper woods whose properties are imperfectly known. Such studies of the tupelo gum aud western hemlock have doue much to overcome the com mon prejudice against these species aud have added materially to their commercial importane.

The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe railroad has rone into tree grow mg in order to provide for its fu ture supply of cross ties. The Santa Fe has adopted the eucalyp tus as the most suitable species .for tie purposes, because of its rapid growth, great density and durabili ty, and is now planting 700 acres in a ranch of 9,000 acres in Southern California to eucalyptus seedlings, with the iutention of repeating in this amount of acreage each suc ceeding year for a total of twelve years or moie, when it will have planted several acres. The seed lings which are sprouted in boxes to the number of 100 to the box, and stored in "lath houses" until they are three or four inches high, at which time they are three or four months old- are set out in rows eight leet apart, at a distance in the rows from each other of five feet. Their cultivation after that for three or four years is thorough, but sim ple enough, and includes their wat ering two or three times a year. Thereafter the plants are expected to take care of themselves, although in the course of time, they require thinning out, which is accomplish ed by cutting out every other one, so that they stand ten leet apart in the rows. The young saplings thus removed maVe excellent fence posts, and hence no loss befalls through their taking away. The remaining young trees, numbering about 550 to the acre, will, at the end of fifteen years of growth, each yield six ties, it is calculated, or some 3.300 ties pr acre. These ties will le cut from 700 acres of the big orchard each year, after fif teen years from the first planting, with the result of obtaining more than 2,250,000 ties per annum; and, seeing that the rate of remov al will be exactly eual to the rate of planting, the same total acreage will, theoretically at least, maintain the same annual supply of ties to the end of time'. The cost per cul tivated tie is far and away below that of ties of the best quality, such as white oak, now bought on the market. The loyal friends of the Oregon State Normal school at Monmouth have come to the rescue of the in stitution and have met the condi tions imposed by the new loard of regents. Messrs. Ressler and Per kins apjwared before the executive committee in Salem last week and tendered a check for $3,000 as a donation to conduct the school the ensuing year. This is one half ot the required amount aud the board has allowed until the 1st of Febru ary for the deposit of the balance. Other revenues irom tuition aud lo cal taxation (including 7 mills spe cial tax) will add between eight and nine thousand dollars. The bud get for the year has been reduced from nineteen to fourteen thousand dollars by cutting down the salar ies of the instructors, with their full consent, an act of devotion which shows their loyalty and devotion to the old school. It will be remembered that the old board of regents, at its annual meeting in June re-elected the fac ulty, let contracts for fuel, etc., and otherwise provided for the contiun ance of the Monmouth Normal. The new board, at its meeting July 18, accepted the action of the old board and assumed lull control. At a later meeting, August 20, it rescinded its former action on the ground that the law prohibited the atntnntion of anv obligations In excess of the probable revenues Since the appropriation, vetoed by the covernor. could not become available until passed upon by the next legislature, the loard decided that no account could be taken of it. This caused the board to vote not to continue the school until a sufficient sum was deposited as an absolute donation, which, together with the other fixed revenues, would place enough funds at its dis posal to guarantee the expenses of the institution for the entire year. Now that this has leen done and the donation accepted by the exe cutive committee. Monmouth is of ficially authorized to continue and will therefore open its doors on Sep tember 24 for its twenty-sixth year. The business like methods of the j new board, the personnel of its membership and thex increased de mand in the state lor Normal train ed teachers, all combiue to make the prospects bright for the best year in its history. Its friends are rallying about it as never lefore. Monmouth has sent out over 850 graduates during, the past twenty five years and thousands oi others have received a partial preparation for the work of teaching. Ten of the thirty-three county superinten dents are graduates and scores of principals in the towns and villages claim her as their alma mater, while hundreds of others are grade teach ers in the town and country schools. With these loyal children and the thousands ot friends over the state, the Mother Normal looks forward with confidence to the verdict of the people at the polls next June, when the question of its continu ance is to be submitted through the initiative.
