there is so much leing prepared for
us, It looks doubtful about our
reaching Oregon before September

have had a smooth trip yet we are

LORD LOVELACE
WINS FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS
At the State Fair Groyae in Th ree
Straight Heatf-Thii Race Wn
the Ev" th Day.
Salem. Or.. Sept- "'-In three
straight heats, K.B- Tongue's Lord
Lovelace won the 2:n pace for a
$500 purse at fair grounds track this
afternoon.
The race was the went of the
day at the track, the interest in the
contest being due largely to the fact
that Iovelace was competing against
two Washington horses and one
from California. The result was
wildly cheered by a good sized
crowd in the grandstand. The first
heat was paced ia 2: IS with Frank
Child's Sherlock Holmes second, L.
S. C. Schell's Bonnie M. third and
W. S, Harkey's Develetta fourth.
In the same order the horses made
the second heat m 2:17);.. The
third was also made in 2 ; 1 7 5 , Bon
nie M. was a poor second, Shirlock
Holmes third, and Develetta dis
tanced.
The only other race of the day
was the 2:18 trot, for a purse of
$500, won by Al Phillips' Van
Norte, George A. Kelly's Packline
second, J. S. Cranes Hank third;
time, 2:27. The second heat of
this race was won by Packliue in
2:27, with Van Norte a close second.

The Weather.
The first two days were warm
and sunny. The temperatures fell
during the middle of the week and
heavy frosts occured in the southern
and eastern counties on Friday aud
Saturday mornings. In the plateau
section of the state the temperature
was several degrees below the freez
ing point and the frosts were very
injurious. Sunshine continued and
the afternoons were moderately
warm until Saturday, when cloudi
ness increased and by Suuday morn
ing rain was falling in the north
western counties. The rain spread
during Sunday afternoon and by
Monday morning it had become
general thioughoet the greater part
of the state. The rain of Sunday
and Monday occurred after most of
the correspondents had mailed their
reports and consequently but little
mention is made of it.

THE OREGON
FRUIT INDUSTRY
AN ACTIVE INTEREST SHOWN
The Southern Pacifio Doing Much
Toward Promoting and Stimu
lating Fruit Growing.
''C. A. Malltoeuf, district freight
agent of the Oregon Lines, "was in
Eugene on Thurday. Iu an inter
view a Register representative learn
ed that Mr. Malltoeuf's mission at
this time is to arouse the valley to
the importance of fostering and de
veloping the fruit industry, where
by canneries will be in greater de
mand and growers will reap higher
reward for their industry. Mr.
Malboeuf said that already there is
widespread activity in the fruit
business in the Willamette Valley
the increased output having started
expenditure of fully $250,000 in
building uew canneries and enlarg-
Ijng those now in operation
'.Vtaen
we consider that not over 50 cars
of canned fruit will be shipped out
of the valley this year, we can re
adily see the opportunity ahead for
expansion of this industry into one
of the largest aud most profitable
in western Oregon. The Southern
Pacific has taken up this industry
with a vim, as it did the dairy busi
ness several years ago, and has
grown rapidly and is still expand
ing. 'The present season,' said Mr.
Malboeuf, 'has been noticeable lor
one of the biggest crops of berries
and cherries on record. Favorable
conditions throughout western Ore
gon have made the yield a large
one. Within the past two years,
the people of the valley have plant
ed large numbers of blackberries,
loganberries, raspberries and other
fruit roots, largely with the view of
marketing the fruit in Portland
The very large yield this summer
exceeds the most sanguine expecta
tions, and the Portland market was
oversupplied. Nearly 1,000 tons of
cherries alone were shipjed from
the Willamette Valley to the Ptigct

' ENCOURAGE TUB INDUSTRY.
'Realizing the conditions, and
with the desire to encourage an in
dustry so well suited to the climate
ot western Oregon, the Southern
Tacific Company is fostering in er
ery way. the cultivation of small
fruits and the establishment of can
ning establishments. The result
will be a more extensive cultivation,
and the dividing up of large farms
into smaller tracts. Many of the
cauneries that will be established
will be built and operated on the
! pcative plan
It is the inten
tion of the Southern Pacific to aid
in every way in the introduction of
the best varieties of small fruits and
to assist their cultivation by scien
tific methods.
'This work is bringing result. A
number of catiuing establishments
will be erected within a short time.
At present there are two fruit can-
neries at Portland, and others at
Salem, Springbrook, Eugene and
Ashland, and others have been
started this year at Grants Pass,
Brownsville, Monmouth and Leba-
uou. lne baiem plant is to dc en
larged, the Eugene cannery has
been improved, and the arrange
ments have been made to establish
another large cannery at Salem and
another at Newberg.
'AH sections of the valley are
awakening to the possibilities of
fruit growing in connection with
the canning industry and by next
spring it is likely that 1500,000 will
be invested in canneries throughout
western Oregon.
'The output of canned iruiu on
the Southern Pacific lines in this
state, outside of Portland, during
1906, was less than 50 car loads.
This year the output is larger, and
by next year there should be near
ly 100 carloads for shipment to the
Eastern markets. Within the next
five years, shipments of tinned
fruits from western Oregon should
amount to 1,000 cars a year.
