The farmers wear a benignant, self satisfied expression by reason of their belief that this fall their graineries will be filled to overflowing with large crops of all kind of grains,, but the fruit grower can be told as far as he can be seen by" the broad smile which he wears, yet they, are ail bustling around very busily, and It Is very sel dom one finds time for a very long chat on the street corner. Thel outlook Jsjlor one of the largest crops of fruit W iill kinds, ever grown In the Willam- i ette valley, and Mr. Fruft grower feels homself, of all people, the most fortu nate. ; Hop yards, or even bank have no .'allurement for - him, and he only wonders why all sensible people do not flock to the Willamette valley and en gage, in fruit raising. He feel sure they, would unanimously say it Is the long lost Paradise. r .. ; J "Why." said C O. Constable, the Rosed ale prune grower, yesterday, "we are going to have the largest crop of fruit ever, our prune trees are just simply loaded. Our only worry is that we don't know what we are going to do with so many prunes, we haven't nearly enough drier! capacity,, and; no time to build more, and then material Is so scarce and high priced we could hardly build anyway. We are making good use of these warm days cultivat ing our orchards., Such is the story . told . by all the prune men and is It any wonder their countenances are wreathed ip smiles. No section of the valley has so far sent n any report of the least shortage of fruit or Injury to the growing crop, so the people of Oregon may prepare to eat their fill of prunes this coming winter., . .. . . Walter Jenks. of the Fruit Growers Association, said that some complaint had been made to him about prunes falling from the trees, but. said he, "if none "of the prunes fell, the trees would be overloaded and utterly unable to bear the load, and besides he prunes would be sc small as to be worthless. There Is no cause for complaint, a that is the only salvation of the crop." The bloom was very heayv on ' the Bartlett pear trees this season and al though it Is" too early yet to tell the final outcome, the prospect is for large crop of this luscious fruit. As In the case of the prunes, the pear blossom are falling considerably, but there will still be plenty left to" load the trees. C. A. Park, manager of the Wallace orchard, reports, that the prospects are excellent for a large crop of pears and apples in his orchard. He' thTnks the pear trees will have all of the fruit they will bear, but the apple trees will not be so heavily loaded. This will In sure larger, finer fruit. The apples In the Wallace orchard are all of the Spitzenberg variety. ' Probably the only fruit not looking well are peaches. They were slightly Injured by frost, as they bloomed very early I nthe season, still a fair crop of this delicious fruit Is expected. The cherry trees of all varieties are literally loaded with fruit, which Is now past all danger of damage from any cause. The cherries are now as large as peas, and already begin to look eat able. ! The small boys are reminded of the stomach aches which they enjoy each year when the cherries begin to turn, and the older boys are thinking about lying on the 'grass In the shade of the trees eating the Juicy fruit, or climbing for the choicest laden branch es for their turtle doves. , RAILWAY TUNNEL CAVE-IN PROBABLY FIFTEEN NEGROES KILLED IN BLUEFIELD AC- : : CIDENT.
