The markets are taking more each vear than they did tho pre vioiiH season, and there w ill In: no trouble alioiit the market! increasing with th i.ri ill lli't it ill . There was no market this vear that got all it asked for. 11$ 1 1 th Vrnit (Irowers' I'liion and the Pavidson Fruit Co. made several sales of straw ben-fen for shipment to the Klondyke eoiintrv, and the'lierries were report' as arriving there ii good condition, am selling t f i per pound uo. cond week :5 'r crate. The entire crop ol the vuuey wan nnimn ma uniform average price of fl per crate to the grower. Taking these prices and theseyields together the returns to the grower average :H) to iK) per acre to the best growers and fl.'tU or more to the rest. Many reports ot success nave iveen made, too numerous to mention.

Markets that wanted them could not be supplied, and had to go without.

HARNESS AT COST. lor a man s Their lirst Q in r Hood Klvcr mhih Denies. o Tl,.. fnlli.wiiiu article ntiiieaied in the Practical Fruit Wrowcr, Springlield, Mo. and was written by Henry T. Williams an extensive fruit grower in Arkansas and Colorado, who has been sojourning in our valley for the past three months Vl...n.ii.r line L'oes ill the Northwest at the proper time of the year, in sprin i... .. ill in,, I in all the stores of every neighborhood one sign: "Jlood liiyt Strawberries." I nderneatli that sig a w niithered in crates some of the most tempting sights in beautiful strawberries that a person ever beholds. In little souare iioxes, holding just about a pound each, or a little less than n quart, are ar ranged in regular rows, just like applet, face sid up, large, handsome, firm dark red berries, of most inviting appearance. All crates tire packed alike, all boxes fared, all berries the same color, one var iety only every w here alike, every day, all the season. ' That sign w herever dis played settles the fate of every strawber ry from every other part of the country. No other berry can be sold with favor but this one variety, and from but one place the true home of its adoption Hood Hiver, Oregon. There are certain peculiar merits con nected wilh this berry and the locality where raised Which makes it unlike imv other variety, so exceedingly ililti- cuft of imitation or of competition that it constitutes a chanter in horticulture very remarkable. This variety is called tbeClnrk's Seedlinu. It has been tried in other nlaces. west and east, in other ... 1 .J n,r I .4.. .C. , l.llt.1Ci i en.wnhere. The same variety is like itself when removed from here to imv other sectim. I'lureitisa lanze, firm berry, solid, deen red colored, flesh to the centre, so firm and its skin so close and tough that it ill carrv for i avs in open crates w lth out anv chanire or variation, and so solid in its character that when canned it re tains its color, form, solidity and flavor so perfectly that it can he taken trotn the cans and placed on the table in lieurlv the same perfect appearance has when gathered fresh ; so it Is'comes the ideal favorite of households for can ning and preserving; and home canned lieTrios can be called upon all the year for either strawberries and cream, short cake or any other of the uses that straw berries have. In canning it retains its firmness, not breaking the skin, the ler- rv does not dissolve into mush nor the juice leave the fruit and spread all throiiL'h the can. However, the uses and the demand for it fresh for the table are such t hat not enough are raised to meet the demand, and while it lasts no ciiini.etition is able to displace it and none liills it place. It seems to have found a tilace of its ow ti and fills it to perfection. The profits from its culture are most enroll railing. I have never seen straw berrv fields on the face of the earth fill tivated with such rare and attention as the best fields receive here. Straight rows are run in one direction and as straight ones across them in another, and at the intersection a plant is set. As much care is used in putting them out as if it was an orchard, and if yon stand in any position you w ill find the plant in rows all ways, lust like trees are placed, in the same beautiful regularity These rows are kept constantly cultivat ed one way bv horse cultivators m row L"., feet apart, the other way by hand cultivators, rows 15 to IS inches apart All plants are kept in hills. No runners are allowed to form. While picking the pickers are instructed to pinch every runner off. After the crop is gather' the grower has a large circular eutte with sharp edge and long handle, whir lie uses ireqiiently, going up and now the rows, w hich he lifts and sets dow forcibly over every plant and cuts off all runners starting around. The liills are preserved for four, five or even six years but usually four years is considered the limit of profitable grow th. The number of plants or hills per acre is usually 15,- 000 to 1 1,0 0. All growers use water for irrigation. Constant cultivation and irrigation is kept up until the time for picking comes, but irrigation is not excessive and does not make the berries soft. When well cultivated the hills average one box or pound each, which, if that proportion were kept up over a field, would be (00 crates of 24 box each per acre. In practice the best yields are :00 crates, or a trifle over for the best places, and the common average is 150 crates per acre. The picking is done by Indians, who come here i-i large numbers from nearby reservation, and do the picking for 1 la cents per quart. Those who face the berries receive S rent er quart. The berries are often very uniform and can lie packed in rows in the box, similar to apples, and the top layer is always laid in regular rows. Ticking lasts from four to six weeks, owing to difference in ele vation where raised. The country is loud and picturesque in color. Kvery Indian wears a multi-colored blanket ami every squaw a bright shawl. . Prices are very extraordinary. The honor of having the first U-rries from Hood Kiver is coveted by many places, but usually Seattle gets the first crate, The price sold at there is usually50 rents per pound box. The first rrate this sea son brought the grower $12. Puring the the first week growers received a net average pric of $5 per crate, ami the acres, . single crop pays and.
