The Rogue Hiver Vuey Cunning company, K. U. Boutelle, manuKer, 1h now making preparation! for it 1930 season and receiving orders for Its product. All or the lii!y pack has been sold ami shipped a most fortunate condition, as many of the northwest canneries mill have in thefr warehouses part of their heavy output of lust your. Cunning of cherries the first output is expected to begin about June 20, next. Manager Houtelle said yesterday. The cherry crop of the valley, ho said, would he about one-third of h,t year, as the fruit is now dropping. Rather cold weather after the cherries set is given as the reason for this condi tion by Clarence I'ierce, u cheny glower and expert. He says his ob servations show that unless warm weather follows the set, the cher Tics grown here drop heavily. The cannery 1h now nmltln;; ar rangements for beuu and tomato tonnage, the acreuwu being on ti level with previous years. Cut Pear Output ' It Is too early to make any pre dictions on the pear puck, but Man ager Houtelle feels that, owing to the large carry over from last year, the local output will be lesa than in The cannery this your will con tinue the use of the patented pear peeling machine. This muchlue Bkins the pears with one fell swoop, and buyers reiiort the pear pack produced by the contrivance of a high quality. Minor repairs are being made to the machinery in the plunt and the cannery placed In order for the June opening.

The question of financing will also be taken up at the conference and particular emphasis will be made to formulate a program of activity towards attracting to this section those types of industries which could avail themselves of the min eral deposits to be found here. The Mid-Pacific Empire agricul tural economic conference will be held In Medford, Oregon, about September 1 5th. The chairman has not yet been appointed. Study Agriculture livery phase of the agricultural life of the .Mld-l'aclflc Kmpire will be presented for dlncuHslon by men thoroly conversant with ngrlcul- , ture 0 this section. Dairying, bulb ; raining, horticultural crops, veget- i able, poultry, sheep, pears, apples, potatoes, etc., will be fully covered I during the conference, with the result that the awoclatlon will know exactly how much land In each county is under cultivation, what Ih being raised and the amount of production, what land is available and the type of farming it is suited for. and what can or cannot be profitably exploited. Transportation will also figure largely in this conference as many aKi'iculturul leaders have many times svited that production of certain types of agriculture would be greatly enhanced were a water outlet available. This is particu larly true with pears and apples as it is practically impossible for these products to enter the export markets without water transporta tion and the low freight rates af forded by same. The timber conference will be held ubout October 15th, most likely at Klamath FuIIh, and the chairman with tho program for same will be announced by Presi dent (Jates as soon as arrange ments are completed.
