PRUNE CHOP
HEAVIEST SOUTH
Salem Grower Tours State and Finds
Best Yield in Southern Counties
Thinks It Mistake to Supplant
Prunes With Apples.
W. C. Tillson, a leading prune
grower of Salem, who recently vis
ited Medford to inspect orchards
and fruit conditions, on a 1000-mile
automobile trip through the fruit dis
tricts of Oregon in an interview upon
bis return comments upon the prune
situation in Southern Oregen:
"I discovered that the crop in
Southern Oregon is much heavier
than in the northern section. The
area over which primes are grown
is much smaller in Southern Oregon
than it is here. There prunes are
largely grown in the valleys, where
there is a rich alluvial soil, and the
trees arc large, strong and health'.
The prunes there also average some
what largor than the prunes in this
district. In the northern part, where
tho prunes are grown on the uplands,
tho soil is materially different.
Neglected Orchards.
"In the south I found that a good
many orchards were dying 'out, some
from lack of cultivation and some
.from tho fact that they were not lo
cated on the proper kind of soil, and
in these cases tho owwner might just
as well allow them to die off. If tho
growers will select suitublo soil and
give proper caro to their prunes they
must find that this class of fruit
raising is highly profitable.
"Prune orchards in Southern Or
egon are widely scattered, while in
the Willamette valley they are more
concontraated. In the south I saw
only one orchard on tho high laud.
This is tho property of Dr. J. M.
Uauslmair of Portland and is plant
ed at nn elevation of 1000 feet. Tho
trees are loadod to the fullest capa
city and at that elovation, tho owner
says, tho fruit is never injured by
frost, and ho has novor lost a crop.
This orchard lies ten miles south
west of Roseburg. It probably will
yield 100,000 pounds this year.
Replaced With Apples.
"Near Medford I fouud that tho
prune orchards have been very gen
erally replaced with apple orchards.
In fact, they seem to have the applo
crazo there. To a largo extent I
think this chango is a mistake, but
timo will toll as to tho advisability of
making this change. I noticed that
many hundreds of aorus of new ap
plo orchards aro being planted in
many sections, but tho now pruuo
Roreago Is comnarativoly small.
"I should estimate tho pruno crop,"6 rule, will also bo smaller."

WASHINGTON, D. C. Aug. 13.
In an attempt to gain recognition
from tho United Stntes, General San
Sebastian Salinas and Dr. Modesto
Barrios wcro still in conference to
day with Acting Secretary of State
Huntington Wilson, presenting the
claims of fhe Madriz faction in Nic
aragua. It is reported on high au
thority that Wrilson made it clear
that his government would not
change its attitude toward the Cen
tral American dispute betwween Mu
driz and Estrada, recognizing neith
er except where injury to Americans
or their interests nre involved, when
both will be held responsible.
Wilson, it is said, expressed a de
sire to bring about a compromise
between the warring factions. Tho
representatives of both Madriz and
Estrada probably will meet at the
state department to discuss the sit
uation. Born.
