THE DAILY CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON, SATURDAY, AUG. Hf, 1916. SEVEN Some Figures About Logans What Year's Yield Shows Ideal Crop for Small Tracts While several tracts of loganberries have average.! more than five tons to the acre, these are really phenomenal yields and like other unusual things in the world, never happen until the first time. Loganberry growers in mnking their estimates ns to yield, place it at two anil one-half tons an acre as a gen eral average.-- Several tracts this year went wnv un der thi estimate and these mnv be rail ed the unfortunate ones who' had but little to show -for their year's work. Then again, where condition have been about lno per cent in favor of the grow er, there has been yields that alaiost equal that of Bruce Vox. living nenr tie Liberty district who netted sV-'OO on 8(1(1 hills. The big grower of loganberries who perhaps will carry off the blue ribbon for this, year's crop, is Dr. Chapman with Ins 20 acre tract not far from Sil verton. The doctor averaged about five and three-fourths tons to the acre. The total weight of logans raised on his trnct on shown lv the receipts wn9 230,039 -pounds. What Growers Have Done. The average man with small tracts runs about as follow. W. O. Mahoney, living on rural route three out of Salem, has a four acre patch this year aiid his total weights were 35,000 pounds. 17 1-2 tons, which puts him near the top of the class for this year. F. J. Chapman, on rural route eight out of Salem, struck about average luck this year as he raised 28,331 pounds ou his five acre trnct. This gives him a little over two and three-quarters tons to the acre, placing him slightly above the estimated average of two anil one-hnlf tons to the acre. M, Dormnn, living east of I.ibcrtv, lias five and one-half ncres planted in loganberries and lie old 40,523 pounds This is 20 1-4 tons for his five aud one hnlf acres, or about three and three quarters tons to the acre, bringing him pretty well above the average. t OPEN FORUM WAS IT AN ACCIDENT. To the Editor: - L. D. Ratliff asks if Hughes is an accident 1 and then quotes from Minnie's '-Twenty Years in Congress" to prove it. The quota tion is as follows: " We had our guld en era of industrial development under the 'Walker Kree Trade Tariff." Mr. Blaine may have used that lan guage in his discussion of the tariff question, but I fail to find it. He did. however, say that the Free Traders claimed that "the farmers and plant ers at no period of our history were in receipt of such good prices,' steadily paid to them, in gold coin, for their surplus product, which they could send to the domestic market over our owa railways and to the foreign market in our own ships." Then for the Protectionists he says that "While admitting the general cor rectness of the free-trader's statements as to the prosperous condition of the country, they call attention to the fact thnt directly after the enactment of the tariff in 1840 the great famine occurred in Ireland, followed in the en suing years by short crops in Europe. The prosperity which came to the American agriculturist was therefore from causes beyond the sea nild not at home; causes which were transient, in deed almost accidental. Moreover an exceptional condition of affairs ex isted in the I'nited Stntes in conse quence of our large acquisition of ter ritory from Mexico at the close of the war and the subsequent and almost im mediate discovery of gold in Cali fornia. A new and extended field of trade was thus opened in which we bad the monopoly, and an enormous surplus of money was speedily created from the products of the rich mines on the Pacific Coast. At the same time En rope was in convulsion from the revo lution of 1S4S, and production was ma terially hindered over a large part of tho continent. This disturbance had scarcely subsided when three lending nations of Europe, England, France and Russia, engaged in the wasteful and expensive war of the Crimea. This etrnggle began in 1S33 and ended in 18.-5(1, nnd during those years it in creased consumption and decreased production abroad, and totally closed the grain fields of Russia from any competition with the I'nited States. .. . When peace was restored in Europe, when foreign looms nnd forges were set going with renewed strength, when . Russia renewed her export of wheat, and when at home the output of the gold-mines suddenly decreased, the country was suddenly thrown into distress, followed by a panic and by long yenrs of depression." The render can draw Ms own infer ence as to the present industrial condi tion nnd thp reason therefor, nnd if. when peace is. restored in Europe dis aster may not be anticipated. There were those nt that time who prophesied the disastrous results which follows the restoration of peace, notably Horace Greeley and ITeury C. Carey, two of the most ardent advocates of a pro tective tariff, and may note the advo cates for nrotection have as good rea son for anticipating (lisnster from and after the nations now engaged in war ahull have "bent their spears into pruning hooks? '' Was it nn accident thnt my friend should have quoted, or misquoted Blaine, to prove Hughes nn accident. . P. WEBSTER. - COBB AS ' ' STRIKE ' EXPERT Washington. Aug. ID. Ty Cobb, ball player and one of the greatest "strike" experts in the country today conferred briefly with President Wilson on how to hit the ball in a pinch. After he got through he said he thought the presi dent knew more about the strike busi ness than he did. .T. K. Ellison, living on rural route seven, Salem, was one of the., fortunnte ones, as his record shows that from hi five acres, he sold 44,450 pounds of log ons, an average of about four and one half tons to the are. ' Above $100 Per Acre. William Kosteuborder, ou rural route seven, Salem, owns a three acre patch and sold 13,700 pounds at the regula tion price of three cents a pound, bring ing him 411. If the family picked most of his berries, that left him a pretty fair average for his three acres. B. O. Zelinski, living near Salem, did about as well. Ou his three acres he sold 13,32$ pounds nt three cents a douimI. There is nothing unusual nbout this yield, yet it the work was nil doae bv the folks at home, the three acre's brought in $399.84. Mr. Zeliuski lives at Hazel Green. fleorge X. Thompson got in nbove the average, as from his eight acres, he sold 40.594 pounds, which is almost three tons to the acre. Mr. Thompson lives on rural route eight, Salem. O. II. (trnbenhorst. on the Jefferson road, has a four and one-half acre tract from which lie marketed 3.1,057 pouads aud had a lot more ou the vines but could not find pickers. Anyhow, he got almost four tons to the acre. Small Tracts the Best The general opinion of those interest ed in the loganberry industry favors the plunting of small tracts, with diversi fied farming. With the rapidly increas ing business of the two plants 'in Salem, the future of the loganberry is assured. The price of three cents a pound is fairly well established, us it gives the grower, the manufacturer and the re tailer a fair profit. In fact, all the business of the loganberry is based on the price of three cents a' pound. This year the picking cost one cent n pound but with the larger tracts, the difficulty arises of securing pickers just nt the right time. All of which is an argument for diversified farming. It is an ideal crop fur those who own but small tracts. Flax Experiment at University of Oregon Among the statistics being compiled by Labor Commissioner Hoff is the following concerning the Vniversitv of Oregon's experment with the flax in dustry, which resulted as follows: Cost to Farmer per Acre.

In Southern Pacific Section Onng under Foreman Tnft, who has n crew of fifty men on Superintendent Whnl en's Los Angeles division, there are twenty-five or more children who are being tinight daily in a box car which has been fitted up with benches. They have a teacher who instructs them daily ill England nnd Spanish and in primary work. The result, thus far, have not only beeti satisfactory, but the class of men in the gang remains high. As the gang moves along from place to place so does the school-car and the children never have to miss a day 'a attendance. Superintendent Whalen has now made arrangements to obtain an old passenger roach which will be fitted up with benches and blackboards and which will be easier to heat, expecting in this way to im prove materially the conditions in this unique schoolroom. He has further more arranged to fit up a hospital car for the women and children in the camp who become ill. Hubbard En j terprise. I CONTRACT IS RATIFIED A special meeting of the eitv fathers was held Tuesday evening to consider1 i the contract, easement ami bond ns sub jmitted by the Silver Falls Timber Co., ; covering the building of the auxiliary water system.

" The giddiest, gayest, grandest, glit teringest galaxy iu the whole wide, wonderful world is trekking this way and will spread its acres of tents here on Saturday, September !. If one does not infer from this that reference is' made to the Barnum Bailey Greatest Show on Earth, the-publicity man will regard the case as hopeless.' The first advertising car is iu this city today anil more than a score of experts: are spreading with tack and hammer and paste and brush the flam ing lithographic tiding of the ap proach of (the big- traveling amuse ment institution.' They are under the direction of Arthur. E. Diggs. a well known ' advertising specialist. This is the innovation of novelty year, the greatest of all seasons. More railroad cars are required to trausport the show, bigger tents are raised, more area is needed to accommodate tho show than ever before. -In fact), the circus has reached a point where it is the despair of many of the smaller railroads ami taxes their facilities to the limit, for eighty-nine cars are need ed to convey the gigantic canvas va grant from town to town. There's material enough in this yean circus to make a dozen circuses of the old days. A "big top" 6U0 feet long, nearly 1. 300 employes, three rings, four elevated platforms, acres of aerial ap paratus, a 108 cage menagerie, 730 horses, forty elephants, a street parade three miles long. The stereotyped ' "grand entree", with which the circuses were content to open their program for many years, has been permanently eliminated from the Barnum Bailey tournament. This season the nreuic entertainment is in augurated by the spectacular pageant "Persiji or the Pageants of the Thousand and One Nights." The 'subsequent three hour arouie performance, below aud aloft, scorns all comparisons ami breaks all records of the past. Every one of the five hun dred participants is a champion in equestrinnic, aeralistic,' equilibristic, acrobatic or gymnastic effort. Trained animals are in great variety.

The cook wants ten dollars a week or she goes, "On account of the war." ? The baker reduces the weight of his bread, The butcher scads steaks that could muster as lead. The tailor's wool suits are of shoddy instead; "On account of the war." The tinner can't patch up my roof where it leaks, "On account of the war." The car that I bought will riot come i for six weeks, "On account of the war," The cost of my' shoes mount eaci time that I buy, The prices of drugs are prodigiously high, But when I demur I receive the reply "On account of the war." And what can I do when they airily tay, ' "On account of the war." What else can I do but obligingly pay, "On account of the war."

They av eraged almost 200 lbs. each, were nine months old, had been pastured on clov er and fed skim milk up to three weeks ago when they were turned into a small field of wheat and field peas, where they were finished. That's one good way of finishing pigs for market at a time when one gets the beuefit of a good price and everbody else isn't selling hogs. Don't blame Mr. Mertou if you are jealous of him. The St. Paul road district is doing its annual road graveling this week. The roads radiating from St. Paul are gradually getting covered. Every year sees a little more of the good work done. A charter has been issued for the establishment of a court of the Wom an's Catholic Order of Foresters- at St. Paul. The organization and in stallation of the new court took place at the city hull at 2 p. in., August loth, under the direction of Mrs. H. A. Kirk, state deputy of Portland. She was also assisted by some members of the Woodburn and other neighboring courts. There were 2.1 initiations ut this meeting and there will be three or four more at the next meeting owing to the fact that they could not be pres ent on Tuesday. Many Ht. Paul people were at the Woodburn picnic lust Sunday. fall grain is not turning out very well, but prospects are excellent for a good crop of spring oats anil the clover seed outlook is also fine in this vicinity. A canvass of the. corn growers in this vicinity has revealed mi acreage of 7H4 acres among 70 growers. Ernst & Kretcher have been inude direc t agents iu this Si. Paul territory for the Ford cars. They have a num ber of prospective buyers for fall and more in sight for the spring. Max Leonard bought one of the new 1917 runabouts .through this firm. The honey harvest for 191.1 seems to be a good one. Henry Wohlfnrt, the St. Paul bee man, and whose prin cipal souri-c of income is honey, litis shipped a ton of th product and ex pects to have another ton for shipment before the season closes. He has m hives and understands bee culture from A to Z. Fatiier Stern, S. J., assisted Father Chubot ou Monduy ami Tiiesduy on account of Tuesday being the Feast of the Assumption.

LATE HOP NOTES THOM NORTH MARION COUNTY ' The following 'article' to the Ore goninn was the result of an articlt in that newspaper upon the leading Oregou crops, in which no , mention was made of the hop crop: Aurora, Ore., Aug. 8. (To the edi tor.) I wish to comment briefly on article in today's issue of "Six Ore gon Crops Are Millionaires." You name wheat, oats, spuds, apples, bar ley and corn. I tail to see. why you exclude hops. This crop, as you are well aware, has brought into our state annually for years from $2,500, 000 to iill,000,000. The hop crop has averaged more value than any other Oregon farm crop except wheat and oats. . This seasoa, with every adverse condition to contend with, the hop crop will bring approximately $.1,000,000. The hop growers will expeud for gathering the crop alone close to $1,500,000. This sum is paid in largepart to women and children of your city. They at least have cause to know that Oregon produces more hops than any other state in the I'nion. When and where is it possible for a family to net from $50 ,to $250 in two weeks, besides enjoying an out ing, as they can and do in hop pick ing'. It will soon be time to gather in this season's hop crop, a crop among the most valuable grown in this state. We are growing more hops than any otner state. e grow the best hops in the world. We spend a large part of the value of our crop for harvesting. Yet you seem to give us the "go-by." Our crop brings into our state nearly all outside money new jnoney to help maKe prosperity for dear old Oregon. When mentioning the principal agricul tural crops of Oregon please place the hop crop third; that is where it. belongs. HfcJNKY L. BESTS. Under date of July 22, Straus & Co of London, write Henry L, Bents, of this city, "We thank you for your tetter or jrn inst., wnicn we nave read with much interest,, and we should be glad to receive your further news from time to time with regard to business being done on the coast, and also the progress of your growing crop of hops. With respect to the coming crop of hops in England, so far everything seems very favorable, aud we are looking for ward to the growing of a good aver age crop in this country." (The above letter had beeu opened and passed by the censor.) Hot dry weather in New York h been favorable to the crop and a eood yield for tho acreage is expected somewhere from 12,000 to 15,000 bales. At this writing the quality promises to be pretty good. Our local market has weakened- a little more, but at the slightly easier rates quoted dealers have done more business with brewers, some of whom needed stock. The browing trade bns been good this summer and a large quantity of hops has been con sumed. Conditions have continued favorable the past 10 days throughout the hop sections or urcgon and Washington. Spraying has been quite genernl locallv probably more than half the growers having takeu that . precaution. The crop promises to be a fairly clean one nere so rar as vermin effects arc con cemed. Otto Knorr wns here Toeently from his home north of town. Mr. Knorr is one of the hop growers of this sec tion who has been iu the business for 20 yeurs and has never yet sprav ed Lis hop vines. This year his yard is remarkably free from hop vermin. The Cnited States treasury depart ment mnkes the following report on the hop industry for the rear ending June 30, 1915: The consumption of hops by brewers in the United Stntes for that period was 38,83!,E94 pounds or winch amount ,40(,032 were con sumed in Now York, 4,6.19,083 in Pennsylvania, 3,734,2311 in Illinois, 3,21HI,li5i In Ohio, 2.717,581 iu Wis consin and 2,401,488 in Massachusetts The exports showed 14,241,443 pounds domestic and 16,647 pounds foreign. To tal brewers' consumption and exports 55,000,084 pounds. Imports 11,051,332 pounns. iset domestic movement 43, 415,352 pounds. The total area devoted to the growing of hops n the United States was 40,800 acres in 1899, and 44,1111.1 ncres In 1906. In 1909 Oregon held first place with a total area o'f 21,770 acres and New York wns Becond with 12,02.1 acres. In 1914 Oregon had nn nrea of 23,642 acres producing about z'j.auiMiim pounds of cured hops. Au rora uDaerver. RAISES SOME FINE CORN Lynn Miller, son of F. M. Miller, route .1, is raising some corn this year that promises to establish a record. Without exaggeration the stalks are eight feet hiuh a ad are eariuu out in fine shape, lie has only a small patch as experiment, but intends next year to plant a larger acreage, Tiie seed was secured from O. A. C. Oregon is fast hecoining a corn country. It will not be many years until Indiana will turn green with envy ut the corn we raise -Silvlto Apiel. Mr. Hall received little encourage ment here. While Hughes has many strong supporters here, few of them approve the club idea for this com munity. Candor compels recognition of the fact that the Wilson sentiment is not wholly lacking in this Republi can stronghold. Aurora Observer.
