High Production
Of Fruit Looms
In Future Years
Prospects fbr improvement in the
market situation for fruits and nuts
grown in Oregon depend largely on
improvement in consumer purchas
ing power, inasmuch as prospective
supplies of most of these commod
ities will be on the increase for the
, next five years, barring unusually
unfavorable conditions.
Such is the conclusion reached in
a new situation and outlook report
just issued by the extension service
at Oregon State college, dealing with
the outlook for tree fruits and nuts.
The market outlook for this group
of products is of real concern to
Oregon's agriculture, the report
points out, as the income from in
terstate and export shipments of
fruit and nuts represents a rather
large percentage of total sales of
Oregon farm products made outside
of the state. The industry also pro
vides a considerable amount of em
ployment, particularly during the

harvesting and processing seasons.
The combined annual production
of all fruits in the United States
during the next five years probably
will be larger than the average for
the past five years, the report
states. As fruit prices are rather
closely related to the two factors
of fruit production and consumer
income, the latter will be highly im
portant in determining prices for the
next few years.
Oregon's markets will also be af
fected by a continued rapid increase
in citrus fruit production. While the
civil war in Spain has given the
United States orange growers some
advantage on the export market,
domestic outlets will continue to be
the most important. Citrus fruit
prices during the past year were
close to a record low, and with pros
pects of record high production for
the next five years, keen competi
tion from this source is expected
to have an unavorable influence on
prices for Oregon produced fruits.
The current report, which is
available at any county agent's of
fice, contains detailed outlook in
formation on apples, pears, peaches,
prunes, cherries, walnuts and filberts.
John Kerrick, safety speaker from
the office of Secretary of State Earl
Snell, is giving a series of nearly 30
talks accompanied by movies dur
ing the month of March, before
Portland community clubs and
American Legion posts. The series
is under the sponsorship of the Port
land Federation of Community
clubs.

Laurel Beach, With Waring's Pennsylvanians,
Says Big Radio Programs Lots of Work
It takes work, hard work, and
plenty of it, to get a big radio pro
gram in shape for presentation. At
least such is the case in the organi
zation of Fred Waring's Pennsyl
vanians, avers L. Edwin Beach, son
of Mrs. Elsie M. Beach of Lexing
ton, tenor soloist with Waring's glee
club, who was home on a visit this
week end and who called, on old
time Heppner friends yesterday.
Beach said Waring had not yet
signed a new contract, and that
while considering the severalprof
fered had instructed his 75 Pennsyl
vanians to take advantage of the
opportunity to enjoy a short vaca
tion, but to get back on the job
pronto. Little chance for respite
would be had when the new season
was on, what with the big world's
fair at hand.
With prospect of another whole
year passing before he could get
home again, Beach made up his mind
to step on it. Taking the bus west,
he saw his brother Lawrence, now
located at Logan, Utah, on the way,
and on the return east, (he leaves
today) he will see his brother Har
old at Phoenix, Ariz. Laurel, as home
folks are wont to call him, dropped
in on the practice of "Purple Tow
ers" at the Elks hall Monday,, eve
ning and complimented the show
ing of local talent who are preparing
the musical comedy for presentation
as a benefit to the school band in
April. He also sang in the church and
school of his old home town, Lex
ington, where he was most heartily
received.
But to get back to the work of
putting on a radio program. War
ing's gleemen learn all songs by
heart. Time demands of the air are
exacting. All of which makes three
long rehearsals necessary, for prep
aration of each program.
To help keep fit, Beach uses the
"Y" gym, plays basketball and bad
minton, and last winter he officiated
basketball games.
The east seems Closer to national
politics than the west, to Beach.
And he said all is not too rosy on
the political front. In New York,
Dewey and La Guardia are dynamic
characters claiming much attention.
Most of the time since he joined
Waring's organization a year ago has
been spent in Radio City. But one
of the biggest thrills he experienced
was in a recent appearance in Wash
ington at a party staged by Vice
President Garner for President
Roosevelt. The president sat in the
front row about thirty feet in front
of the performers and was observed
in off-stage character, along with
some forty other notables. When a
noted sleight - of - hand performer
asked the president to draw a card,
then later asked him if that was the
card and the president said yes, then
the trickster said, "Are you sure?"
and the president said ,"I am posi
tive," and the magician replied, "I
just wanted to see if the president
would make a positive statement,"
Vice-President Gamer guffawed.
Beach asserted that it did feel good
to get back to the wide-open spaces
where a - fellow really does have
room to stretch his legs.
Though possibly a mite heavier
than when he went east, and his
forehead a trifle higher, the work
withal seems to have agreed with
Laurel. Anyway, he says he likes it
and all he wants is more of the
same.
