The bnsy seaaon of the Oregon Nur

ta'ere are now employed in the 300 or
so acres of. nurseries and in the ship
ping dejrtment of the company's
business, here in Salem and its suburbs,
about 150 men. Sixty f these men are
emploed in the e hipping barn, on
Twelfth street. There are sixteen in
the ofEee of the company, near by.
The shipping department will have
its busy time for about six weeks, an J
the field force will be employed nearly
ail summer. ! . :
A million or more of trees will be
sent out from the 'shipping barn within
the nextvsix weeks; about a carload
day. " A
The trees go to all the states of this
coast. Into British Columbia, the Da
kotas, and even beyond the Mississippi.
The company now has an office in De
troit, Alich., which, has sent in a large
number of orders, and they go to Mich
igan, Ohio, Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky
and other states beyond the ' Father
of Waters."
The packing is carefully done, and
it can be carried on night and day, the
company " having the use of eleetric
lights. The trees are packed in moss
and shingle tow. The moss is gain
ered, in the moon tains for the eompany
and supplied to them in large quantities.
Shingle tow la used mostly in the
Eastern shipments, in order to bold the
moisture throughout the trip.
In the million or more trees that are
going out now",' winter apples predomi

kind of 'fruit tree, shrub and flower
grown in this latitude. A large num
ber of teaeh tree are soing ta Colo

both varieties among the orders from
other states.
The field -force has just finished
planting "about ninety-five acres of
trees. The "work of cultivating, prun
ing, grafting and sprouting will now
go on uninterruptedly. With some va
rietios the field work must go on five
or six years before the tree ar ready
for sale and shipment. The nursery
business Is one of infinite eare and pa

There must be rigid svstem adhered to
as regards the selection and naming of
the varieties. The stock supplied to
the thousands of patrons, scattered
over more tha a score of states, must
be true to name. They must be healthy
and vigorous. '
Messrs.; M. McDonald and A. Me

in personal charge, superintending it
down to the minutest details. , They
