Fruit is the 30th day of May, 1917, at the hour weeks from the 8tl day of May, 1917, FARM SURVEY a valuable food. Many people simply of ten o’clock of said day, at the front the same being the date of the first publication of this summons. It has taken County Agent Smith nearly two weeks to compile the farm census figures made a week ago last Saturday—or rather we should say which are still coming in, though most or the farmers of the county, 610 in fact, have already furnished their re ports. As stated the total number of acres in these farms is 103,971. This equuls 162 sections or square miles, indicat ing that all these farms would make a tract 16 miles wide and 10 miles long but comprise only one-tenth of the total area of the county. The total acres in crops on these farms this year is 18,464. More land is being prepared for cultivation, how ever, and these 610 farmers promise to have 20,157 acres under the plough in 1918. The acres in crop this year are dis tributed as follows: Fall wheat, 87; spring wheat, 97; oats, 2414; barley, 893; corn, 2127; potatoes, 1130; hay, 7825; beans, 335. It is impossible to compare these figures with the number of acres us ually devoted to the crops, as Mr. Smith intended, because so few of the farmers filled out the second column of the blank to show the number us ually sown. Neither will it be posible to estim ate even the total acreage in pasture, and such root crops as beets, carrots, turnips etc. The names of these crops not having been printed on the blanks but few farmers thought to list them in the extra space provided for miscel laneous crops. No. of Head of Livestock on Hand. The following is a list of the live stock reported on hand May 1, 1917: CATTLE:— Dairy cows, 8,184; dairy calves, 3027; beef cattle, breeding stock, 2605; beef cattle, other than breding stock, 2072. HOGS:—brood sows, 502; breeding hogs, 2850. SHEEP:—Breeding ewes, 1617; other sheep, 1521. HORSES:— Brood Mares, 389; oth er horses, 1360. GOATS:—476. POULTRY:—All tyld, 26,884. Reports on Seed Needed Etc. Fifty-seven farmers reported that they needed seed as follows:—Corn 550 lbs.; beans, 600 lbs.; potatoes, 12.000 lbs.; barley, 16,000 lbs.; oats, 8.000 lbs.; clover, 675 lbs.; grain 550 lbs. The seed reported for sale was by nineteen farmers, as follows:— Pota toes, 19,300 lbs.; oats, 1500 lbs.; wheat, 2.000 lbs.; beans, 250 lbs.; corn, 150 lbs. It is noeworthy that potatoes which are so high priced now are the only item in which the listed supply above exceeds the demand. Labor and Other Needs. Furmers who report that they need labor are 73. Laborers needed at once are 46. Those wanted for harvest are 98. The total number of farmers need ing machinery is 65. Those needing capital in order increase their produc tion this year is 72. The amount they want to borrow is $65,690. look upon certain staples like wheat and meat as necessary food, and de prive their diet of the value of fruits. But on the other hand, thousands of men and women have dropped meat from their daily diet and arc bene ficially using fruits and nuts instead. Many others are including a larger and larger proportion of fruits in their diet; physicians are encouraging the use of more fruits. They contain .ery valuable acids, extracts and fib ers and are rich in sugars. Some of the fruits are very rich in oils. Fruit and nut growers should write at once to their representatives and senators urging that no action be tak en which would jeopardize the fruit and nut industries of the Pacific Coast which is destined to become one of the greutest industries of the entire Unit ed States.—C.

Yes; every American who sub scribes to the justice of the course of the United States in entering and conducting the war we are now en gaged in should subscribe to the Lib erty Loan Bond issue to the extent of his or her financial ability. Every American who subscribes to the belief that an American should stand by his or her country should subscribe to the Liberty Loan Bond issue. Every American who loves Ameri ca and is jealous of America’s honor should subscribe to the Liberty Loan Bond issue. The real success of the loan is to be more determined by the number of Americans participating in it than by the amount subscribed. The spirit of the Nation is going to be judged abroad, especially by our enemies, more by the number of its American men and women who sup port this bond issue than by the mere amount of money subscribed.

Gardner & Larsen CHARLES BAXTER, Proprietor ¡T ry the Herald W a n t A d Columns Your Patriotic Duty— Buy a Liberty Loan Bond FRUIT NOT A LUXURY. Should Be Classified as Farm Product by Government. Leaders identified with the fruit In dustry in the Northwest are very much worried concerning the influ ence of the war on the fruit industry. There is a possibility that the Govern ment may classify fruits as a luxury and not as a staple food product. If this is done it will mean that the la bor used in the production, handling and harvesting of fruit. In the ware houses, packing houses, cold storage plants, etc., will be subject to military conscription. Already the supply of men for work in the orchards is short. Also if the Government should make this ruling it will mean that it would be harder than ever to get cars; that fruit men will have to give way for other products and stand and see their fruit spoil. There is also the bare possibility that zones may be es tablished. This will mean that the fruit produced in certain districts can be shipped only to certain zones. With the box fruit trade of the Pacific Coast this would be working a tre mendous hardship because our mar kets are widely scattered. It would force a very large tonnage of fruit in regions where perhaps it could not be consumed. There is a possibility that the Gov ernment will fix a minimum price for farm products. If this is done it should apply to fruits as well as to other foods. If it does not the fruit grower will have to pay the high wag es, taxes, etc., and have no assurance that he will secure a good market for his product, which would be an unfair discrimination. The Fruit Growers’ Agency, Inc.. of Walla Walla, Washington, which is the agency established by the United States Department of Agriculture, re cently had a meeting and as a result telegrams were sent to all members of Congress representing the states o f Oregon. Washington, Montana and Idaho. Telegrams were also sent to the International Apple Shippers' As- aociation, Western Fruit Jobbers, and the California Fruit Exchange. The members of the Agency realize that if the fruit should be discrimi OREGON NEEDS ROADS NOW! VOTE 314 X Y E S— (FOR R O AD BONDS) Election Monday, June 4th— Don t be a Slacker!

Nothing doing on this impor tant link of the Coast road. $50,000 State & Federal funds will be spent on Curry county Coast Road. Our neighboring county will remain in its primitive, unde veloped state. Secretary of W ar Baker says: “ Federal aid should, in general, be granted only for roads such as can be designated ‘through roads’— that is, roads leading from one center of population or commerce to another. “ The War Department recognizes certain areas as more likely to be the theatre of military operations than other parts of the coun try. Every effort should be made to persuade the State Road Commissions to complete the network of ‘through roads’ within these areas.” The voters of Oregon ha'-e the chance to give the State Highway Commission the means o ' following the above recommendation. No one can fortell what nilitary necessity will demand of Oregon in the next two years: Roads cannot be built overnight.
