WEATHER CONDITIONS MUST BE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION IN HARVESTINGS THIS VALUABLE ' AND EXTREMELT SENSITIVE CROP IN THE VALLEY. - Some of the newspaper have bad eocxl deal to say about the projser time to pick the bops. The growers are no without plenty of advice. , r'J, They are adrtsed to let the bops get fully ripe before picking. The are caul tloned to not pick them green. This is good advice. The right time to pick hot Is wtfen they are 'just right and ready to pick. But there are other con sideratlons. ." The hope, In any one yard of any considerable else, or even of small pise, will mature unevenly. Some wU be ready to pick before others. It Is not safe, thererore, to wait until all the hops are ready to pick.; 'And then the grower ;of , a particular yard may not have as many pickers as he should have. Or he may be deficient In drying space.' Or it may rain and keep- : on raining. ' The rain will : not injure his hops if he can get them picked " and dried promptly But he cannot get them picked as quickly, .especially ! If he must depend, on women- and chil dren for part ot hie help, in-the rain as in dry weather.; v And it takes longer to dry hops that aVe. wet with thi rain than if they were dry. Hl deficient drying space may grow more deficient with the necessity to dry his hops wet. There are many growers who will figure that they would better put up part of their hops a little green than to wait untO they are just right and get them water soaked, and then loe part of them for want of sufficient pickers or sufficient drying space. ' It is a very good thing to pick the hops when they are just right. . But circum stances alter cases. It is very seldom that we have a September when it does not rain, at least a tew showers, be tween the first and twentieth of Sep tember, between which dates the pick ing must be done, and often the show ers are heavy and continuous for days at a time. . ' The writer knows of a man who al ways begins to pick bis hops a little green.' He Is blamed for this, by the buyers. His "price on his first picking Is often cut down. But he separatee his pickings in . different bins in his warehouse, and so he generally comes out as well as his neighbors who wait until their hops are just light, and put them all together in the bales, thus having only one grade to offer the buy ers. . It ie not'every grower who is fixed to separate his hops and have more than one grade to offer the buyers. But it would pay more of the growers to do this. It must be remembered that this is Oregon, and that it rains in Oregon when it lists Jto rain, and . the wise grower is the one who prepares himself to meet the conditions, as they are or are likely to be. : '5 Catarrh of ths Nose, Chronic, or ulcerative, causes' ulcers to form which . produce scabs and fetid breath; first one and then the other nostril.

School x THE MINISTER'S j COMING FROM f PORTLAND TO TAKE UP THE work he is a Missionary of AMERICAN SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION, i , . .. . . In regard to the appointment of a fhaplaln for the Oregon Penitentiary and the United States Indian Training School, which was mentioned In the Statesman ot yesterday morning, the following statement is furnished by a friend of the movement, The Oregon State Reform Sshool Is to be included la the institutions to be supplied in this manner ' with religious instruction. If Mr., St Pierre' la the sort of a, man d- scribed, he is caoable'of doing a great deal of good. . Following Js the state ment; .j-":;;' .. : ii The State of Oregon makes no appro priation of money for a chaplain to the Penitentiary or the Reform School, nor does the United . States Government make any for the Indian School at Chemawa. Hence these three lnstltu tlonsVfrom a religious standpoint, have been a long neglected field. Employ of the Institutions have done what they could personally and have invited min isters and others to, preach or give ad dresses. Mrs. Smith, the prison mission ary from Portland, comes to the prison once a month, and ministerial and other volunteer service usually fills the time allotted for service - - on . Sunday morning in that Institution, but the Other two'instltutlons have not been so fortunate, and it remains true , that there has been no chaplain at any one of the places whose duty,, privilege and opportunity have been to devote lys time and effort to these places. Many ministers and other people, interested in the moral and religious welfare of these institutions, have 'regretted this, and some effort has been made to have more of this kind of work done, but the effort has failed. . Some time ago the Itev. W. R. Win- ans, the State Missionary of the Amer ican Sunday School Union, took up the matter. ' , This society is not a church and it does not organise churches. It ia . a missionary society under, the manage ment of thirty-six laymen, mostly bus iness and professional men. These men are members of different denominations and employ, ministers and others for missionaries and secretaries, but of the different denominations, hence the so ciety ', is . lnter-denomlnatlonal. In its policy and operations it is unsectarian. Mr. WInans talked not only with ministers but also with the Governor, the Secretary of State, the Superin dent of Public ' Instruction, the Super intendent of each of ' the institutions. and many others concerning the ap pointment of a man by this unsectar ian' society, who should work in these three .Institutions on an unsectarian basis.- He met. with so much approval and encouragement. .- that' he proceeded to secure the appointment of a man. - The American Sunday School Union has, therefore commissioned the Rev. E. W. St. Pierre, of Port!and-He will live in Salem and devote his time to this work. He" is a man in the prime of life: a man who loves men and delights to, work with men. He is a college graduate with an A. B. and an A. M. degree. 1 lie has been seven years a missionary In Persia, and six years of that time bad charge of a. school of about. 300 pupils. Since then he has served seven years as a pastor," He is a man who believes in religion and in salvation, but in his. work in these In stitutions he Will also aim to mingle much with ' the boys and inspire high Ideals In life, and he will labor to de velop character, and will-especially em phasise good habits, temperance, social purity and good citizenship in general. Friendly, social j personal effort will be the largest part of his work rather than preaching. - He will be subject . to the U very ranch like the blossom ing of a flower. Its beauty and perfection . depends - entirely upon the . care bestowed upon its parent. Expectant mothers should have the tenderdst 'care. They should be spared all worry and anxiety: They should, eat plenty of good nourishing food and take sreatle exercises, . This will go a long way toward preserv ing their health and their beauty as well as that of the little one to come.

The band will consist of IS jo 20 pieces, and every member of the band Is an expert musician, and a loyal and en thusiastic Elk. not taken Into the order for the occasion, but a member of long standing. This will add much to ' the stahding and the attractiveness of the Salem Elks, when : parading at the Carnival. . THE SALEM P0ST0FFICE THE BIG FLAG.

FORTY CENTS DECIDED UPON Hop Growers at Their Meet- Incr In WnwIhnrTl Yes-' iU AAA I V w V ws . terday FIXED THE PRICE TO BE FAlD FOR I HARVESTING THEIR CROP THIS YEAR- INTEREJSTING -AD DRESSES- MADE RESOLUTIONS , ADOPTED. ' I i Between sixty and seventy hop growers and dealers, assembled in the armory building' at Woodburn, at ; II o'clock yesterday morning, in response to a call of W. H. Egan. the chairman of the Oregon HOp Growers' Assocla Uon, the principal object of the meet ing being to discuss and decide upon the matter oj the price to be paid per box fcr the picking. of hops uu sea son. - Perfect harmony , -prevailed throughout the meeting which was pre sided over by President Egan, and it also proved to be a very enthusiastic one. and. before adjournment was taken it was decided, by unanimous vote of the meeting, that 40 cents per box of nine bushels was to be the ruling price for picking. A .number of the most ' prominent growers and dealers In the state were In, attendance and some very interest ing and Instructive addresses were made by some of the latter during the meeting. - Ed. C. Herren spoke upon the price of picking and upon closing moved that not more than 40 Cents per. box be paid, which he considered a. fair remuneration, and his motion was sec onded by a' prominent grower of the Silverton neighborhood, who maintain ed that ; to pay ; more than 40 cents would work a severe hardship upon those growers who had contracted early tn the season for 10 and 12 cents per pound.' . Geo. Llvesley also Joined in the discussion and held that 40 cerrts was a fair price as it was a better price for women., and children to earn. He also broached the subject of the use of sulphur in bleaching the hops. during the curing process, and said that there was a considerable complaint among brewers on account of too much sulphur being used and cautioned the growers to be more careful in that re spect, .greater care, he said, should also be taken' in the handling of hops while they were on the" kiln-and dur ing the baling s6 as to avoid breaking them up as much as possible, and not to" make ' their bales too heavy as it made the hops boardy and reduced the market value to a material degree, a light, flaky hop being the desirable ar ticle. " ' ' -: -. -v' H. J. Ottenhelmer being presentind recognized as authority upon hops in every. stage of culturV and otherwise, was called . upon ror a speech.' A dis cussion having arisen as to the differ ent methods of curing and bleaching hopBkMr. Ottenhelmer tobk up this sub ject, and dwelt upon It at considerable length. ' As to the bleaching process he recommended sprinkling of the hops when they were of an uneven or mixed color before drying. This system, he said, had been adopted by his firm at their, big Pleasantoh, California, yards with . satisfactory results. He also cautioned the growers to be in no hurt ry to pick their hops, as a bright yel lows-color, with a reddish tinge com manded a better price than a greenish cast, and to wait until the hops were quite ripe .before harvesting in order to obtain a choice article. ,- ' The question of the necessity of a State Hop Inspector; also arose during the meeting and was deba-ted at great length. It developed that the great majority was heartily in favor of auch an officer and. as Oregon's sister states California and Washington, are both blessed wrth inspectors and.', are ..realis ing such satisfaction as,a result, it was decided that Oregon, with a much greater production of hoW than either of these states should also have an in" spector, and that the Legislators should be prevailed upon to enact a law pro viding for such' an officer during the approaching session to protect the in terests of both the grower and t the dealer. - - f .'. j '' S: Upon motion the chair appointed a committee on resolutions, composed of James Wlnstanley, John F. Rlslejt and McKlnley Mitchell, who. during the af ternoon session, submitted the follow Ing. set of resolutions which jwere adopted without a dissenting voice: .. , "Whereas, it . is' the. concensus of opinion of the meeting that any price fabove 40 cents per box, for picking the 1902 hop crop, would, be practically prohibitive to the majority of growers, and, i's:v:i :; : . t .' . V'':: Whereas, 40 cents per box has prov en profitable and satisfactory to the pickers so that this has come to be a standard price, and, ' ! i "Whereas, at this price an Industri ous picket tnakea more money than at any, 'other farm workand,' "Whereka, oftenttlmea a family of pickers returns from a pleasant out ing In the hop fields with a greater sum of money than represents the year's profits of the grower. It is therefore ' - "Resolved, that 40 cents per box be considered ' as . the standard price for picking the 1902 crop." : $ Another resolution, to the "effect that a commWtee be appointed to endeavor to secure from tranapoprtatlon j com panies a low rate for pickers who may desire to come to the hop yards from.a distance, was also adopted, 'and the president appointed M. L. Jones. Fran cis Feller , and Jas. Wlnstanley as a committee to consult with -the proper officials pf the transportation -j em panles with this end in view. - Lcok Pleasant Please.
