Mrs. Hamilton this season put In her 40th consecutive year aa a gatli orer of huckleberries In the famous mountain berry patch, It was reveal ed today by Karl L. Janouch. forest supervisor. Bhe has been going each year to the Huckleberry mountain sector since sho was sevon years old, Mr. Janouch said. . ' The huge berry patch has proved more popular this year than ever be lore and the facilities provided by the forest aorvlce for 80 camps have been extensively utilized, Mr. Jan ouch related. Many persons, he aula, drive to the area to purchase berries, the prevailing price being $1 a gal lon. (11,000 Crop Up to aeptember 8. Mr. Janouch tated, 30.0U0 gallons of berries had been gathered and the picking la atlll In progress. At a'l a gallon, this rep resents a gross Income of 920,000 to the pickers, he pointed out. Three gallons a day, the supervisor xplalned, constitute an average day's work. Recently, however, four persons tn one camp picked 48 gallons In three days, representing a daily re turn of au.76 for each. The huckleberry area, situated on top of the mountain which derives It name from the berry, comprises about 30,000 acres.

Is valued at more than 930,000, he aald. I'tckers From Afar . The supervisor stated that during recent Inspection at the berry campground he saw cars from Wash ington and California. Moat of the berry pickers, however, v came from astern and aoutheaatern sections of Oregon, where fresh fruit la not Crown and la therefore highly valued, fee aald. Some of the berry pickers set up their camp tents early In July and remain until late In September, Mr. Junouoh related. The time of the eraeon, he explained, determines the use to which the berries are beat adapted, the early berries being beat for Jama and Jellies while the late ones are auperlor for canning. The best canning berries are those picked late In the season after floaty weather haa developed the luscious sweetness, he averred. "Huckleberry mountain provides tlie largest berry area on the Rogue River national forest and the best tn the state," the supervisor declared with pride.

NO smoking la allowed under for est rulea excepting In the camp ares nd the old-timers are fervent In biding by this law, Mr. Janouch aid. They realise, he added, that a fir would deatroy the berry, patch forever. Turns Detective Recently a picker who . Insisted on Wolatlng the smoking rule Joined the mp. He waa reported but he took great care not to amcke whenever a guard was around, Mr. Janouch re lated. The veterans continued to re port him and to Insist that he be punished. Finally a guard from an other station Joined the encampment as a picker, giving a good imitation of a Cl-mrm, the supervisor recalled, i nnauy, when the offender was convinced that the newcomer waa a bona, fide picker, he became careless nd started smoking. He waa prompt ly cited to appear In Justice court and later was fined. Jack Crump and an assistant are stationed In the area as forest guarda.
