They Missed It
Every observant person who visits
the Lewis and Clark fair remarks upon
the fact that Oregon lost a great oppor
tunity for advertising herself. Califor
nia has a magnificent building, filled
with samples of the products of that
state. Ho has Washington. The Ore
gon displays are largely in the agricul
tural building. They are placarded
with the names of the counties. But a
great many people from the east fail
to graps the situation. They see "Ben
ton County" or 4 Polk County," for
instance, placarded nv front of an ex
hibit in the agricultural building, bat
they do not know wnether it is Benton
or Polk county, Alabama, Georgia or
Oregon. Thev often ask. Thousands
not take the trouble to ask. The

Placed in the Oregon building, all to

Footing Assessment Roll
Marion county's 1905 assessment
roll is now in the bands of County
Clerk Roland and his deputies are at
work footing, up the long columns of
figures in order to prepare a summer'
for the sceretay of stae. This is a
tedious task and it will require many
weeks to complete the work. Lntil
the footings are made it will be im
possible to compare the figures with
those of last year's roll, but County
Assessor F.. J. Rice is of the opin
ion that there will be put very little
if any, lifferenee between the grand
total valuations. He believes the in
crease from improvements will offset
the amounts allowed for exemptions
under the new, law.

HOP PICKERS ARE SCARCE
Hop Growers Finding Some Difficulty
in Securing Help to Harvest
Their Crops.
With the hops approaching la stage
of maturity that will make their rapid
harvest an absolute necessity if the
crop is saved, ' tbe growers now find
themselves confronted with an appar
ent shortage of pickers. It was thought
some, timo back that their would be
plenty of harvesters for the hop fields
but since the growers have oegun to
scramble for them it is found mat the
supply is limited and some little anx
iety is felt by some of the most ex
tensive growers who are .obliged to em
ploy several hundred pickers to get
their crops out of the way in due sea
son. .
The hojs arc rifening nicely! and the
prospects are bright : for an excellent
quality of produce, but, if the j scarcity
o pickers becomes more serious than
is at present anticipated, the quality
will not be depricated materially, but
l..eir is danger of the hops becoming
over ripe before they can be gather
ed in. Picking in this section of the
valley will begin Thursday, in some
yards, but generally; the first of the
week. , .
Same Condition at Aurora.
j
Aurora, Sept. 6.--Hoppicking has
commenced in most yards but as yet
there has been a scarcity of pickers and
the, work has been retarded, Jt is too
early to make a correct estimate as to
the yield but enough has been picked to
show that it will be very uneven. E. M
Bracket has finished ' picking j and ac
cording to the number of boxes, his
crop is almost double as compared with
last year. On the other hand, Henry
Muessig, who finished Monday, reports
that his crop will be less than 0 per
cent of last year's yield. -

Cuba Said to Be Home o Boll WeeriL
. .But Pest Cannot .Work During Bainy

NEW YORK, Sept. 7. (Special.)
Four bales of cotton weighing seventy
five pounds eaeh which arrived in New
York from Cuba a few days ago repre
sent samples from the crop raised on the
island. Two years ago when cotton
prices went kiting, attempts were made
in various parts of Cuba to start cot
ton growing on a seale sufficiently to be
competitive. Although not altogether
successful, the result has ' been rather
gratifying than otherwise. It has been
demonstrated by experience, it is said;
that cotton of the finest quality long
staple sea island that brings from 23
to 25 cents per pound and yields some
thing over 500. pounds tothe acre, can
be grown, in any part of the island of
Cuba, or the isle of Pinos, particularly
the latter place. On the other hand, the
boll weevil, the cotton plant's deadly
foe, flourishes in the Cuban climate as
almost no place else on earth. It is
found in every district where cotton is
grown and effectually prevents tbe crop
from assuming any particular . propor
tions. It has been - suggested, however,
that Cuba has one advantage over' the
south, in that for at least a part of the
year the boll weevil is unaoie to work.
During tbe rainy season, which com
prises the months ot July, August, Sep
tember and October, the heavy rains
and extreme beat keep the weevil from
damaging the plants, so that if the crop
were planted prior to July 1, instead of
April, as in the southern states, by the
time the boll weevil begins to work in
November,there would be a good frop
on tbe producing plants. It is estimat
ed that by this method of raising cot
ton, the yield should be, of tbe long or
short staple, from one to one and a half
bales. te -the acre. Of course," for the
succeeding four months the dry sea
sons the weevil would have full sway,
but with one erop folly matured the
planters would not be so badly off. Un
til some sure extermination for the wee
vil is found, however, men will prefer
to invest their Cuban dollars, in sugar
and tobacco, but the possibilities of cot
ton growing in the island still remain
amazingly good.

KING BEGINS
HARVEST OF GOLDEN FBTJTT,
STARTS IN MANY HOP YARDS
TJT THIS SECTION.
Impossible to Forecast Yield From Be
' mats Obtained as There ta No Stand
ard of Weight to Go by When Pick
ing by Weight. - . 1
The majority of tbe growers of hops
in the vicinity of this city began the
harvest of their crops yesterday morn
ing, but picking will not become gen
eral until the first of next week. 8a
far as can be1 learned,; and information
is very indefinite and unsatisfactory,
the yield is coming down welL but no
-comparison can be made witn that of
lastrear. This is true for several rea
sons, principal among which is that
this is the first year that picking by
weight has become general and the
growers have not had an opportunity
to make a test of the yield. It is con
ceded by all that nobody; can tell what
the yield will be, or forecast it intel
lectually until the hops are in tne bale.
Then and not till then will it be
known wnat the yield of the Willam
ette valley will be, and no comparison;
ean be made with former yield. .
II may be said, so far as this sec
tion is concerned, tbe market is stag
nant, and all' hops that are changing
hands are sold by growers who have
become panic strieken over the uner
tainty of the situation' and are letting
go at figures tnat are regarded' as a
great sacrifice. Only two sales have
been reported within the past two days.,
One of these was 112 bales of baby
hops o the Mark Skiff lot, which went'
to Laehmnnd & Co. at , 12 cents, the.
other is tbe Breeze Gibson lot, consist
ing of forty-nine bales, which was sold
yesterday to the same firm at 13 cents.
These' hops are rated as choice.
Pickers are Still pouring into tne
alley, but there is a shortage appar
ent, and many of the growers msy
have to run short handed. Fortunate
ly the hops are not far enough ad
vanced to be harmed by any slight de
lay tfius occasioned, and it may be
for the good of the grower, as it will
force "him to allow his product to be
come thoroughly matured before pick
ing. - V
Hops Bad In New York,
George Rose was yesterday in re
ceipt of a letter from R. M. Rose at
Portlandsviile, N. Y-, which paints the
New York hop business in anything
but brilliant eolors. Mr.. Rose says:
'Th'e hops are not here to pick. My
twine money has been thrown away, as
there are no hops on the strings, all
being on top of poles. I am picking in
the new yard, having moved in at
12:30, and I find there the largest hops
I ever saw, but th;y are lousy, greasy
and mouldy. I have, never in all my
life seen so many lite, as everjr hop is
just covered, and in addition t'aey arc
mouldy and blaek. .. , 4 ,4
"Liters is paying 75 cents per bo
to get his hops picked, two gangs of
pickers having quit. The ( hops - are
spoiling fast. A lot of yards will be.
but- poor, miserable trash; the quality
will be very, very poor.
"I have sold to Kenyon k - Saxton
for 20 cents. I don't dare hold the
hops a minute. The Comer yard picked
240 boxes last year, while this j ear it
yielded but 140 boxe. That ysrd las
done a Httle better than the old yard,
but there are 4000 hills in the Comer
yard and the yield amounted to 100
boxes, not a veryig yield to .he Fere.
A week before hop picking commenced,
men who saw the yard said that two
acres of it would go 1200 4o 1500
ponnds to the acre.
"Not a big grower or a little grow
er in Otsego county will get half a -rop
30,000 bales tells the story, but the'
poor quality will press the - market
down. J. Colborn will not pick near
what he did last year. He expected
before picking began that - he urould !
get 2000 pounds to tbe sere.
' "I should have picked 650 loes.
That would have been a fair yielL I
will not. pick over 300 boxes if I do'
that. I have picked 240 now. I am
sick and disgusted trying to raise hops
in this God-forsaken state." !

WASHINGTON, D. O, Sept. 7
(Special.)-'-As a ! first step toward re
imbursing the federal government for
its great expense in maintaining for
est reserves over tbe country, a thor
ough investigation of the reserves in
California is under wsy to locate the
principal bodies of timber which are
ripe for cutting and which may be
logged with the least injury to the
forest. As rapidly as possible maps
and estimates will be made and plans
will be prepared for cutting the mature
trees . under methods which will - im
prove and perpetuate the forest, rath
er than destroy it. Among the lum
bermen and miners of California the
demand for reserve timber, is steadily
increasing. In the Sierras "alone forty
or fifty million feet will be sold in the
coming year to lumber firms, and large
quantities will be used in other parts
of the slate by miners, irrigation com
panies and settlers. Carefully and
conservatively logged, the timber re- j
sources of the reserves promise to con
tribute much to tbe development ' of
the Pacific coast. : ' -
