SEVERAL GROWERS INT , SALEM : JlECEIVED THIS FLATTERING OFFER THOSE ' WHO SOLp CHEAP ARE ANXIOUS TO ANNUL THEIR CONTRACTS, HUT FAIL. . The hop market is climbing' ap steadily, and several local "grWera were yesterday . offered 20 cents p?r : pound on contract f or . this year's crop and the indications are that the, price will go higher In a short time. DeaH ers are extremely anxious "to secure contracts at any price, as one grower put it last night and this augtfrs wsil for the grower who has not contracted his crop, for i means good prices for this year's crop, of which Oregos prom Ises 40 have a. rich and valuable one, ? ? Many growers' early in the. season contracted for ai jow as 10 cents a pound, and some of these growers are fcow In despair, and are' anxious to be released from their contracts, but are unable to secure releases. One grower, a farmer residing near Salem, who contracted his hops at 10 cents. Is fu rious at his want of foresight, but is, In a manner, relieved by the fact that the existing condition of affairs .has stimulated his inventive brain into con structing a machine that may make up for blm, what be will lose oh his hops. lie has invented and construct ed a spanking machine an automatic spanker, and :the motive power Is per petual motion." This contrivance he has posted In a shed at the barn, and regularly , three times , every day. he takes up a position before t and takes a half - hour's spanking punishing himself for his act In selling his hops so early and. so cheap. On the day he hears of a new advance In the mar ket, he Increases one of ihe doses to 45 minutes, and yesterday, he made It one- hour. .When he has mmseir suf ficiently punished, the patent "spanker will be placed on the market for those of his neighbors who' have done as the Inventor didsold hit hops too cheap; and the gentleman hopes for reim bursement for. bis losses on nops rrom the sale, of the spanking machine. ; 1 ' j 1 " - - -- '. 1 Fifty bales of I the -1301 crop were soli In Oils city today to A.

The average for the county is probably 1700 pounds. 5 The cost of growing, harvesting and mar keting does not exeed t cents a pound even where the men are poorly equip ped. A leading hop man states that tho crop this year will be baled at 1 cents, or eveitf less. - : ; " "Men wrth small yeards have ar ranged their drying houses and other details In the past, so that much of the work Is ' performed by their families. They will make more money than, the commercial yards, where every kind of work is employed at high pricea . All expect the net returns will be at east 15 cents a pound., There are about 150 men engaged In the production of hops In the county. Some of them have their yards leased to others, A few plowed up their yeards last spring, and planted to alfalfa ; They are now feeling badly over this action, r - "Several small growers contracted their hops, early In the spring, far 11 cents, This was done to get money d cultivate' and harvest the crop. A few even sighed contracts for four, years a this price.. , The buyers expected such a rise In the general market and too advantage of tho situation,; , , "The Yakima hos are chiefly ship ped to Liverpool, where they bring the highest prices, because of being grown without 'rriolsrture touching the burrs. There is no mold or mildew and the lupulln Is in the best condition. Aside from the ravages of ants' In the early spring, there seems to be no danger of the crop being cut short this seaaon The louse has made its appearance, ia great numbers, but will be killed by the hent of next month before Injuring the burrs. -' ' ;y '"'"'. srs 1 Salem, Oregon. , - .
