H I). Hoke, inntingor of the Hoko

berries will be trebled tho coming
neuaon. Where Inst year grow em
hud to bo begged to plant tomatoes
ami loganberries, they nre now un
solicited nniioiinclng their Intention
of engaging In tho culture ot the
two staples. In view of the fact that
the Hoke cnnnery was pronounced a
fizzle before It started by tho lending
wallers of the city, this showing Is
of especial Interest.
One ot those who Is Impressed
with the possibilities of lognnberrles
Is 1). Hosonbcrg, owner of a large
stock ranch nenr Hoguc Klver. Mr.
Hosenberg Investigated the growing
of loganberries In the Willamette
valley, nftcr a talk with Mr. Hoke,
nml has decided to plant a largo tract.
The growing and canning of lognn
berrles in tho opinion ot Mr. Hoko Is
one ot tho great industries of Oro
gon. In tho east and middle west,
tho Oregon loganberry is In high de
mnml. Owing to tho Indifference of
farmers, tho domand cannot bo sup
plied. Mr. Hoko announces that he
will handle nil lognahorrlea grown In

Tho tomato output this year will
also show the result of Inst year's ov

J. A. WcMcrltind returned yester
day from nn extended trip eastwhere
he wns called by the serious Illness
of his inothor. On his wajrj burlc
through Seattle, hfl represented tho
KnrmeH and Fruitgrowers' Lenguo ns
a dclegnte nt the meeting of tho fruit
growers of tho Pacific northwest
called liy the by-products committee.
Mr. Westerlnnd Is enthusiastic In
his report of tho convention. There
was everywhere observable a healthy
sentiment of optimism, and tho spirit
of "get-together" over alt of tho
gathering. The attendanco wns u
truly representative one, no Import
nnt district being missed when tho
roll was called. Leading members
and officials of tho various growers'
associations and selling organiza
tions were nmong the delegates, and
all Joined In tho resolution to work
together harmoniously for tho ad
vancement of tho fruit business In
tho four states represented. Tho
representatives of the selling organi
zations were present In, an adylsory
capacity only, anil weronot" recog

the meeting, but they Joined heartily
In the spirit of tho movement Inaug
urated, and pledged their support to
It without reserve.
Hroml I'lehl Ciircrnl
Whllo the meeting wns cnlled and
held under tho nusptces of the by-'
products commlttco, tho discussion at
onco occupied a broader field, tho
wholo range ot horticultural Interests,
from the fruit on tho treo clear
through to tho ultimate consumer,
coming In for consideration. Put
ting the fruit-growing and fruit-sell-lug
business on a business basis was
tho central themo on which nil dis
cussion turned. An association of as
sociations was proposed by tho com
mittee, nml the proposition wns
heartily endorsed by tho delegates.
The proposed organization Is not
meant to displace any existing organi
zation, either of growers or sellers,
but to supplement tho ncllvltten of
those now In existence, anil bring
them nil Into ono harmoniously co
operative body, furnishing a' center
from which tho whole field ran Im
surveyed, and tho energies of the
various units guided Into the right
channels for tho best results.

Tho plan of organization contem
