the asso ciatio n is fine b u t as for
m yself I w ill not join because as
a re su lt of th e larg e p a rt of th e
tonnage being u n d er association
con tro l, I may be able to sell to
g re a te r advantage as a re su lt of
my n eighbor’s paying th e cost of
o rganization control of th e tonnage.
The independent grow er is a very
expensive lu x u ry to th e in d u stry
and th is year cost th e in d u stry not
less th a n l ^ c per pound on red
ra sp b e rrie s, 2c per pound on s tra w ­
berries. and V4c per pound on lo­
g an b erries.
This would am ount
th is y ear in the G resham te rrito ry
(conservatively estim ated) to from
$80,000 to $100,000 and in the Pacific
n o rth w est to a m illion. So it can
be seen the independent or u n o r­
ganized b erry grow er is a ra th e r
expensive luxury for th e industrjr
to ca rry , not only for his neighbor
grow er but for himself. The local
g ro w ers who sold th e ir No. 1 red
ra sp b e rrie s at 6tyc forced down th e
price of association b erries sold
to can n era to nearly th e sam e level,
and afte r th e harvest expense was
paid they had no money left. T his
idea th a t som e folks have of pay ­
ing such a high prem ium for cash
at th e close of the season is a very
expensive one that is not fully u n ­
derstood by m any grow ers or they
would not pay a t th e ra te of 50 per
cent per annum for th e cash. They
can n o t afford to pay such a large
prem ium and in addition th e in ­
ju ry to th e ir neighbor by u n d erse ll­
ing w orks double. M anager Towle
says, “ L et’s m ake a m em bership

the local berries. W ill you help?
If so, drop us a card of en co u r­
agem ent and we will fix< th e date
for a m eeting of all grow ers
w h eth er w hite, black, or brow n and
try and get to g eth er for th e com ­
mon good."
Mr. Tow le fu rth e r says, "We have
not received m any re p o rts of o u t­
side sales. T h ese should be tu rn ed
in a t once in order to com plete our
records.
"A lso in th e m a tte r of th e c a n ­

“We need your o rd ers for weevil

“Also in th e m a tte r of your o r­

On th e Roosevelt or Oregon
coast highw ay, 34 m iles south of
Hebo and 21 m iles north of New­
port is th e city of T aft. A h alf

and facing the beach is th e tra c t
bought a year ag«e by F. N. Lasley,
form erly of C orbett.
Mr. L asley h as erected th ree fine
cottages, one of w hich he and Mrs.
, Lasley occupy. The o th ers are for

It w as th e privilege of Mr. and
Mrs. H. L. St. C lair to be th e guests
of Mr. and Mrs. L asley in one of
th e ir cottages over la st Sunday,
m otoring down S atu rd ay afternoon
and re tu rn in g Monday forenoon.
It w as th e ir first o p portunity to
m otor over th is portion of the
Roosevelt highw ay and the rev e la­

of th e new m otor ro u te excited in ­
d escribable enjoym ent and praise.

It is said th e highw ay from T aft
south to N ew port is even m ore
sta rtlin g and b eautiful In scenery
but, though open and used, is a
g rief to th e m o to rist because of the
p resen t co arse rock su rface which
is the foundation for th e top d re ss­

T aft is 137 m iles from G resham
via Newberg, McMinnville and

th e rec en t trip . N early half th e

From near G rand Ronde to Otis is
a new cut-off w hich when com ­
pleted, probably by next sum m er,
will sh o rten th e d istance ap p ro x i­
m ately 25 miles.
F. N. Lasley, having sold his
farm at C orbett, bought a sm all
tra c t near T aft and about a y ear
ago began im proving it and during
th e p ast sum m er erected th ree co t­
tages. Mr. L asley hud trav eled co n ­
siderably, observed the best auto
cam ps and cam e to the task with
ideas far above th e average. These
he has ca rrie d out a t his place,
which at p resen t Is Just known as
L asley's for w ant of a b etter name.
One of his ideas w as to give a
m axim um of convenience and com ­
fort. To afford th is he has p ro ­
vided hot and cold w ater and a
show er bath in each cottage w ith
all m odern plum bing. Also each
cottage h as electric lights th ro u g h ­
out and all th e n ecessary conven­

th e re are m any niceties not usually
