PRUNES PAY.

Norris Humphrey will clear 5000 off
his 35 acre orchard says the Eugene
Guard.
Norris Humphrey will complete the
work OF drying prunes on his thirty-fve
acre orchard this evening. The orchard
consists of % acres OF seven year old
trees and seven acres of six year olds.
OF of this orchard he has harvested I20.-
600 lbs OF dried fruit, and shipped 81 900
lbs of green fruit. For the green pr -
duct he received $S40 and estimated the
dried fruit at cents per pound he will
receive 50, 900 for il, making a total OF
81, $40. His eultiyating and harvesting
expenses will not amount to over 81 800,
which will leave him over S. 900 profit.
This shows what fruit raising will pay in
Lane county when properly handled.
Lane eounty's climate and soil are re-
culiarly adapted TO raising the celebrated
Italian pruncs, and thousands Of acres
should be planted by our people to this
fruit, which always commands a high
price in the markets OF the world. II our
farmers would each plant ont ten acres
nj choice fruit thee cost would no. be
noticed by them, while in few years the
same would pay more profit than go
acres Of small grain. We are glad to sse
such men as MT. Humphrey making
money. They do not feel the pressure OF
hard times, and they ought not TO.
