knows that much or the older cultl

wheat production. This Isn't the kind
of soil bo wants.
"I will select soil for wheat pro

nn I would choose It for corn pro

ehe, making the difference only In
the matter of soil type for wheat. I
am not onp those who bellevo that,

That Is nn expensive error.

FOR ROGUE VALLEY
I
. IIY W. W. WATSON
That the lognnbftrry crop Is rapidly
coining Into prominence ns a w'enlth-
produDIng hifrvest In this vnlloy np
pears to bo generally conceded by
frultlsts of thoughtful observntlon.
The honvlnosiof tho loganberry wlolil
and their rlchnoss of quality In other
berry-producing regions of tho coast
nttrncled general attention to them
ns a commercial proposition. They
havo borno out In fact all that has
been claimed for them as berries for
preserves In various forms, but they
bnve, In ndditlon to that, proven to
bo or great value ns producers ot a
wholesome potion far more popular
than the much heralded grnpo Juice.
At first regarded as a palatablo lux
ury, loganberry Julco is rapidly be
coming n dietary staple. In excel
lence of flavor It Is equal to most of
tho cordials on the market at high
prices, and for content of substan
tial nourishment It surpasses them
As n "mixed drink" nt home It Is
; delicious. It may safely be given
(n prominent place In tho rnmlly side-
Doara miring tnoso iiry t linos In Ore
gon. In addition lo being u heavy ylold
er nnd strong of growth, It Is n good
shipper In the berry class.
Acicime Griming Itnpldly
The ncrengo cultivated to lognn
borrles In tho Willamette valley Is
being extended rapidly. II. II. Pnt
torson, proprietor of tho Quaker nur
sorlos In this city, who recently re
turned from a business visit to tho
ShIoiii district, expresses much grnt
Ifleutlon over the information ho ob
tained thore concerning the general
fnvor In which the lognnberry Is
hold, both ns a canning product nnd
for lis Juice. One firm of shippers
of loganberry Juice told bliu while
at Salem that It wan behind 27 enr
louds In Its shipments of Julco to fill
onstom orders. It seems there to
hnvo quickly tnken precedence over
all othor fruit and berry Juices ns
n wholesome, delicious drink nnd. Is
used there both ns n dollcncy nnd ns
a stnplo beverage.
Mr. Patterson says tho Informa
tion ho gathered In the big valley
confirms bis contention that tho lo
ganberry will bo found to bo ono of
our most profitable fruit crops. Par
ticularly lu Itoguo river valley will
It be so because horo wo hnvo every
esosiitlnl ot soil, ellmato and season
to favor its growth and maturity.
Much Inteiesl Hero
Mr. Patterson has supplied from
his
local nursery 2000 lognnberry
plants to It. G. Smith, who sot
them out near Jacksonville ns a be
ginning of n large loganborry vine
yard. PluntiiiK tho lognnberry roots
night foot npart each way, It requires
(580 plants to cqvor nn aero of ground.
They will bear tho second your. Mr.
Patterson figures that $250 nn ncro
not Is a very consorvatlvo ostlmnto
of tho yield of profit to tho acre.
That flguro has, however, been ex
ceeded In this vnlloy.
Tho Itoguo Hlver Orchard- com
pany, whoso vlnoynrd Is In tho low
or end of tho valloy, has harvested
ns many ns -100 crates from an acre
of Its older vlnoynrd nnd sold -the
product nt 75 cents n crate, giving It
a gross receipt of 1.100 an aero. Last
yoar that company plantod sixty acres
of loganberrlos. This year It pro
