Not Afraid to Thin Well.
It takes coimideralilo courage to
thlu your owu apples properly, When
Hood Kiver apples are worth three
cents apiece, there is a disposition to
leave as many on the tree as the
grower thinks will mature into fruit
of sufficient size to rank as first-class
fruit. The tendency, therefore, is to
leave on too many. Many are of the
opinion that they can get better re
suits by leaving the job to a disintere
estod patty. Borne think it Jean be
done better by putting one's worst
enemy into the orchard with author
ity to knock 'em all off. It is seldom
that apples are thinned too much, but
often the case that when the fruit has
matured, there have been too many
left on and too many under 4-tier are
the result.
In this oonoeotion it may be said
that the most progressive growers are
not afraid to thin their apples. A few
days ago, while thinning at Egger
mount, on the east side, Henry Avery
took pains tocount the apples taken
off an average tree, and found there
were 2390. Were it possible to mature
these to 4-tier size, the apples thinned
or taken from the tree would amount
to 24 boxes. As a matter of fact, were
no thinning done, very few, if any, of
the apples on the tree would be of
size to market up to the standard re
quired by the eastern buyer. Those
that are left will now be of nearly or
quite all uniform size, there will be
less danger of worms, and the tree
will be enabled to carry Its load, and
bave strength enough to bear next
year.

STRAWBERRY SEASON
IS ABOUT OVER.
This week wil. see the bulk of the
strawberries maiketed from Hood
Kiver. As the season advances tbe re
turns continue light, anu Ihe last es
timates of 50.000 crates will not 1 e
realized. It is now thought that the
total yield iu the valley will not bo
much over 40,000 crates. Up to last
night but 28 full carload shipments
had been made, compared with 109 last
year.
While the foothill berries have
shown a better yield than tbe patches
in the lower valley, none of tbem are
turning out full crop. Karly indi
cations gave promise of a full crop,
but will not hold out. While they
were apparently not damaged by the
March ireeze, the cold raluy weather
later prevented a full setting of ber
ries.
Manager Shepard, of the Fruit
Oroweis Union, says: "While the
vield tbls year is very small, tbe re
turns will be the beat per crate that
Hood Kiver bas hi d for the past ten
or twelve years. It has been a recu
liar year iu all berry districts. Near
lv every locality bas been sbort thi
year from various causes. While Hood
Kiver was hurt by tbe Maich freeze
and the wet cold weather, the east has
suffered from drought aud heat. As
a consequence there has been a good
demand at all markets that has been
strong all tbe time. There were many
days wbon we cu ild bave sold train
loads at around 92.75. Prices bave
been pr ctlnally unchanged for three
nteHK. - hetu Is still no prospect i f a
change. While the supply of Hood
Klvers Is growing leas, yet, we are
now meeting some new competition.
Wenatohee, Hitter Hoot Valley, Utah,
Idaho and Colorado berries aie now
coming in, aud are partially or quite
supplying markets iu their immediate
neigbborbocds. Cherries and raspuer
ries are also taking the place of st.aw
berries in tbe markets to some extent.
These conditions will operate ngaintst
a boom lu prices, but the prospect is
for a good steady market from now
until the end of tbe season.
"Missouri started In this year with
brilliant piospects for a big crop
The first shipments were liberal, and
tne quality good. Lack of rain, how
ever, and continued heat, shortened
Ihe crop, and it soon was exhausted,
with tbe end of tte picking of poor
quality.
"We bave a normal demaud foi
about 75,000 orates at points on the
Northern Pacific and Oreat Northern,
with some localities on tbeO. K. A N.
lines. We meet competition from
Missouri and Arkansas at tbesu point,
but we have the advantage of superior
goods, and can delivrr them in better
oonditlonfl. Union Paoilio points will
take 30.000 more. When the crop ex
ceeds this we have to go into the home
territory of the competition, at Oma
ha, Chicago, St. Paul and Minneapo
lis. We tl'cn meet the Missouri, Ar
kansas and Wisoonsin berries 12 boon
from the'vines, with a light freight
bill, while we are four days on tbe
read and have heavy freight to pay.
These latter markets are not naturally
profitable for hh. It also outs down
the average of the n hole crop. This
happened in 11)01.
"1 have noticed Hat tbe Hood
Kiver patches having the .est yield
this year were those tm.t were well
taken care of last season i Hi r picking
was over, while the uegleuted pu cbes
Hollered most. Returns almost invar
ably show that it does not pay to ne
gieot the berries. It pays tetter to
have a smaller acreage than 1 1 try to
take care of too much aud uot give
them proper care.
II 14' tuif .lutn ' t l.ji nn , um,
Fruit Co. said: "I do nut aultoinata
any particular change in prices from
now on. We bave had less complaint
about quality this year than any year
slnoo we huve tieen lu buslneHS. This
i attribute to two oauses. ihe cool
weather has made the lierrloj (Inner,
and while some of the berries picked
in the rain bave moulded, yet not
'mien oomplaint has oomo from this
source. J lien, on account or the
small crop, many dealers bave pro bah
ly made less complaint than usual, as
they needed berries, and did not ca e
to ran the ohance of being cut oil.
Last year we had the most perfoct
strawberry weather 1 ever saw, and
this year has been the woist. Vet,
the rains have beeu the salvation ol
the business tbls year. Tbe hot diy
weather at the beginuiug of the sohmou
was making small berries and forcing
tbem on all at once, while tho contiu
ued rains and cool weather have held
them bank, increased the size and
yield and kept the demand far in ex
cess of the supply,
"In regard to the upper countiy,
the first estimates of the ciop will be
nearly continued. There will not be
a full crop, but very nearly so in our
Willow f lat ranch, at least. We ex
pected 2500 crates, aud think we will
get them, and may possibly get more.
1 think the entire crop this year will
not be much over 40,010 crates."

CONSOLIDATION
IS DEFEATED
The result of the election Monday
on consolidation was disappointing o
those who wish for school advanoe
meut and a geneial improvment in
higher education in the valley.
In Hood Kiver out of 92 votes cast,
only seven were against consolidation,
while all were unanimous in favor of
free transportation of children to and
from tbe high school from tbe coun
try districts.
Frankton voted almost unanimously
in favor of the consolidation, and it is
to be regretted that the other distri tt
In the proposed consolidation did not
see matters in the same light.
Barrett voted against the ptnpnsl
tion by a small majority, while Pine
Grovo catt a vote of 17 for aud fif
against. It is Ha id the result In Pine
Grove was largely because of local fac
tlotiHl troubles, and that tbe case uaB
bardly tried on its merits.
This leaves tbe matter as it was te
fore with onch district to shift for it
self. Hood Kiver will bare the twelfth
grade as the highest, and all thou- i,
the countiy nishiuglo take this gtade
at the Hood Kiier school, till be
called upon to pay I heir proportion of
