j ENCOURAGEMENT AM0N3 THE
GROWERS HIGHLY PLEASED.
: (From Thursday' Dally.)
:' With an enormuos crop of prunes In
California and 'two weeks advantage
in getting to market, the prospect for
the Oregon growers uras indeed a very
dubious one a few weeks ago and their
only salvation depended upon the condition-
of the French crop and now,
since It Is known that In France the
prune crop Is practically a failure, the
market h orison has begun to assume
a much brighter hue for the , Oregon
grower;
? Iti Is, a very unusual occurrence for
France, which is almost. Invariably ' a
heavy shipper, to import fruit In order
to supply the home demand, but such
la the case this year and no little In
quiry has been received from that
source already which makes the situ
ation more encouraging, and will effect
the market materially. -'
There Has been no change in the es
timate : for the crop this year for the
past three weeks which was placed at
that time at 60 per cent of last year:
crop,: but the growers from all parts
tt the district are bringing In very
satisfactory reports as to the. condition
of the fruit. '' In some sections tne
trees are full, of fruit which ta small
In grade but generally speaking, the
grade will be higher than last year, and
the quality correspondingly belter.
P. L. Kohen, the head of a large
firm of brokers, of Liverpool and Lon
don, t which Arm handled several car
loads of Oregon fruit last year was In
Salem yesterday and took a tour of the
fruit district south of this cKy with a
prominent local dealer in order to gain
some sort of an idea of the fruit situ
ation here and of the! country and cli
mate generally. -' , i
Mr. Kohen was very deeply lmpress-
ed with what he saw and learned and
admitted that,, although he had form
ed an opinion of his own, his idea fell
far . short of Justice and that he was
greatly and agreeably surprised at the
magnitude of the fruit industry.
He said that the Oregon fruit was
practically new to hia people, but upon
introduction "it met with a cordial re
ception and was creating a quite no
ticeabie demand. The consumers were
Well'satisfied with last TMr'i fruit and
if Oregon- can do In the future as well
as last year oar1 fruit will-be alrighj
for the English 'market- and he pre
dicts great things for the future of Or
egon prunes.
He was not prepared to see such
large 'tracts of - land devoted . entirety
to the culture of prunes and could not
find words strong enough to express
his feeling, and be also complimented
the growers very highly upon the man
ner In which their orchards were kept.
The. whole thing was a great revela
tion to him and he expressed himself
as being Infatuated With the country
in general and the climate and bis im
pressions will o a long way toward
paving a way for the Oregon fruit to
establish itself in the English market
The indications are at present that
the prune harvest will commence on or
about September 15th. r ;

have seen timothy- hay cut and bound
