(From Wednesday's Daily.)
After a period of several month's of
comparative Inactivity, j during which
considerable repairing was j done, the
Willamette Valley Prune - Association
warehouse has begun to liven up again
and; in a few days more win be thi
busiest place of business within the
limits of the Capital City.
When a Statesman reporter called
yesterday afternoon he found the ma
chinery running for the purpose of
testing the new machinery which has
just been installed, and at the door a
load of dried prunes was being un-
loaded, while several I mons wagons
were waiting their turn to discharge
loads of evaporated fruit, the fruit
which is fast making Oregon famous
In the Eastern states and foreign
countries. " ; ; ;., , : ; ;.- .
; Manager II. S. Gile-courteously lnvit
the. reporter to inspect the new plant,
and on the second floor he was "sur
prised to find a large amount of dried
prunes already stored 1 , On tha floor
the entire space, with the exception of
a. passage way down the center, is de
Tided into bins, large and small, one
of which Js assigned to each member
of the union, w-here his entire crop is
emptied." In 'this manner; each indi
vidual crop is kept separate, until it
is all delivered aid processed ready for
packing. The prunes are taken to this
floor by means of power elevators, in

emptied "into the' bins. The farmers
are then enabled ' to tlte thlr nrk

umns, is all of the latest and most ap

endless chain running from the base

prune?, in the dirty Condition in which
they fcsiae from the evaporator, are
dumped, without further handling, into
the new forty-two-foot grader, with -a
capacity of Ifcft tons of fruit per. day o?
ten hours. : This- new grader Js one of
the -greatest improvements, - replacing
the old band grader with & capacity of
ten tons a day. j After being graded
the prunes are processed, through the
agency, of the new .steam , processor,
where, every, yestige- of dirt i and mic
robes are removed, and the . product Is
packed, clean and wholesome. Jn fin

At the trial yesterday the machinery
was all tested and found to be in per
fect working order, ready for the sea
son's run.
The packing plant will be started lii
earnest net Monday morning, by which
time sufficient prunes will have ac
cumulated onwhlch ; to run steadily
during the season.
The owners of the building, the Sa
lem Water Company, are repairing the
basement in a" permanent manner, re
newing the blocking, and replacing a
portion of the old wooden' floor with
concrete. About one-third of the floor
will be thus rebuilt at present and
gradually the entire basement will be
floored with concrete. ; ' I ;
: About one-third of the first floor is
at present filled with prune boxes,
knocked down, in which : the Willa
mette valley crop is p be packed, but
in order to have more room the asso
ciation is building, at their " Wft ex
pense, a large addition on tne south
side. This building is fifty by twenty
five feet and thirty feet high. . The box
lumber will be stored on : the lower
floor and the "boxes Will be manufac
tured above. Making the boxes for
the crop of prunes is no small busi
ness in itself, and requires a great dea'.
of 'space, besides sexerat expert box
makers, who will be employed through
out the season.

has been enlarged and changed, and on
the west two private offices are being
built, to be nicely finished and furnish

for the stenographer. The business
will still be conducted in the old office,
where W. T- Jenks . and Bookkeeper
Heimroth have their desks. .
' The work of harvesting r the prune
crop has only just begun, most of the
growers starting their driers a week
ago, but in the Rosedale district many
were not started until last Monday, All
of the prunes dried so f ar are those
that dropped early from the trees and
are consequently small and the poor
est of the year's crop. ,Those which
wirf be shaken from the trees later will
be larger and of better quality. -
During the summer many prune men
became frightened - because so many
prunes were dropping from the vine
but this has greatly improved the six-;
and quality of the remaining prunes,
and the trees are still heavily loaded..

the prlees received will be a trifle low
to the grower. One very noticeable fact
about the new crop ts that the fruit is
much sweeter than last year; , conse
quently more valuable for food.
Manager Gile estimates the crop, of
Oregon at about 16,000,009 pounds, an
Increase of 3,000.000 over last year. Ha
thinks the crop of the Northwest will
be about S7.000.00O pounds, but others
place the estimate at 40,000,000. The
capacity, for drying and caring for the
crop is not over 25.000,000 under the
most favorable conditions, so it is evi
dent that a. large quantity must go to
waste. In the jvlcinity of Vancouver
particularly the drier capacity is not
nearly sufficient to care for the crop.

So far as known up to the;' present
time, Harry Lamar, of this, city, holds
the record for having caught the
largeet black bass in the Willamette
river, or. for that-matter, any stream
or pond in the state of Oregon, ' and
that with a hook-and line, the only
manner permitted by law by which
they may be taken,
Mr. Lamar came into the citv yes
terday afternoon having in his pos
sion a. bea-utiful specimen of this
tribe of fish, which measured twenty
Inches In length and; weighed four
pounds and fourteen ounces exactly,
or just twelve ounces larger than any
fish of its kind, heretofore "caught, the
record having been previously held by
a Portland Angler, Albert Spalinger,
whose catch weighed four and a half
pounds .'i '
Mr. Lamar was naturally very proud
of Jiis prowess and good fortune as an
angler and very modestly consented to
posing for a pictuie of himself and
his prize catch. He said the fish was
ft very difficult one to land and that
he pulled the boat for several rods up

FIRE, AT NORTH YAKIMA.

The residence of Enoch Boyle. of the

with all its contents. The loss' Is
about 8700. The origin of the fire J is
supposed to tx from ; a defective flue.
Mr. Boyle was sound asleep in bed on
the second floor and was awakened by
the discharge of a rifle that hung on
a wall in the kitchen. The fire became
so intense in that part of the building
that the cartridges we're discharged.
If it had not been for this It Is more
than likely that he would have been
burned to death. There was no Insur
