' (i 'irrespondeticc of the Capital Journal.) I would like to Inquire where T. E. Patton's "blackberry vineyard," m"ntioned in last week's .TofitKAi. I L located. 1 nmln the berry bust-! ncKsauil If I cm find where I can I raise eight thousand pounds of bluckberles from ouo acre,'' and , an average of twelve cents u poll. id for them," lam going there nthti off and will send no more blackber- ( rics to the Woodburn cannery for three and a half cents, you bet. And I wont make twelve cent blackber ries into $1.2.5 wine either. See? I don't refuse to believe these figures truthful, but I fear they miBfced a figure somewhere in the calcula tions. The article in question was taken from the Orting, W. T., Oracle, which was given credit for it. Ed. It Is also pleasant to learn that the Willamette dryer company can "u-sj a good many bushels of fruit thus i giving the farmers a chance to make ! something out of their orchaids.'" . They pay three-fourths of u tent i per pound for these fruits, and it will cost one-half a cent per pound lor us nere to get lruit gatnereu anil transpoited. A fourth cent per pound Is "something," and is per haps better than letting the fruit rot under the trees, as thousands of bushels are now doing; but It will scarcely pay the farmer for his labor und 90 per cent on his investment, as I am told the dryer does. If these prices will pay to buy fruit laud in J'nrrish's addition at $400 per ncre, it ought to pay here, where as good fruit laud as ever was tickled with a hoe, can be had for $20 to $40. A few years ngo the Oregon papers told us that canneries and driers would be established "so soon as a supply of fruit could bo had," nnd extolled tho profits of fruit raising, and advised farmers to plant fruit. Now,tho canneries andVlrycrs get all tlie fruit they can liaudle at starva tion prices, and yet there is fruit enough going to waste all over the country to run a dryer or cannery in nearly every town and hamlet, and thousands ot tons more would be raised if there was a prospect of a remunerative market. Why don't tho farmers join together aud can and dry their fruits? Because tlie farmers are farmers, aud arc not manufacturers or traders. In the meantime wo are pleased that Salctn and other towns boom. Hope there may be enough to go around. Aumsville, Or., Sept. !2. F. S. M. Painless dental operations at Dr. T. C.
