The Senators, to use Capt. Joyce's own
eXpressiOn, were never IN the game"
yesterday.
Not tnat the locals did not play good ball,
but it was a contest that had been decided
against them before they had donned their
| uniforms. Fate, as well as luck, cuts for
Zen water i'll the pursuance OF the natioudl
pas time.

II was not 4 case or hoodoO and the pres
ence or tue iadles lad nothing to do witnt he
result. As said before, 1t was one OF the
games that the rates ordained against the
Senators rs soon as the schedule was made
up by President Young and his assistants
last spring.
The regular followers of the sport know
that there are garnes that a club can't win;
the oyed-ln-t tbe-wool rooters present at
National Park yesterday afternoon recog-
nized tnatthey erelooking upon sucha Con-
test and reconciled themselves to the fact
that the Senators had little cnanCe to pull
out.
Inc pernicious and extremely aggravat-

habit on the part of the Weather Bureau
mana cement is not calculated to increase
its popularity among local baseball fans.
MJANES POORLY SUPPORTED.
Capt. Joyce sent Jimmy McJanles to the
slab and the ycuDgster pitched neat
game, though The club behind him lost.
hurst was not the kindest in the world
TO Jimmy in the matter CT balls and
strikes, but Tins decisions did not change
the result. Only, had he treated Jimmy
better and given him what was rightfully
his, Pittsburg would have made one less
hit and one less run than the score shows.
Tom Brown is still iDcapacitated and
Abbey again guarded the CeDtral frontier.
Contrary to his usual practice OF batting
left-hand pitcher, Charley, try as hard
as he did, could do nothing with killep's
curves and beDders.
Capt. Joyce had couple of errors at
the tnIrd corner, one OF which resulted in
a run. The other was of no consequence.
Ed. Cartwright handled Smiths light rap
slowly In the first inning and Selbach let
Patsy DonovaD's single develop into
two ba gger by not stopping it when it
was hit on bound to him at the start
OF the game.
Killen's pitching and Donovan's field
ing and batting were the features Of the
Joyce of a home run in the fifth, when
he made u magnificent sprint and nailed
Scrappy's screamer to deep right.
Too much cannot be said in praise of
Frank Killen's work on the rub
ber. His subtle southpaw delivery kept
the Senators guessing ana was as puzzlng
to them as an East Indian mystery. He
kept the Senatorial hits widely scattered
and pitched steady smooth game such
as the regular rooter delights to look upon.
Bierbauer's injury is thought to be very
serious and he will probably not re-enter
the game until late this season, IL then.

Mrs. Clara A. Hahn, of this place, died

took up her residence in Minneapolis,
Mimi, where she re3ided until six years
ago, when she removed to Fairhaven,
and lived there until last March, at
which time she came here to visit her

BARRELS OR BOXES ron APPLES.

1t has been the custom in Oregon to
ship apples to market in boxes instead
| of barrels. In the Eastern states the
package universally used and approved
Is the barrel Of given standard dimen-
sion, holding about three bushels of
fresh fruit. It is claimed that Oregon
apples shipped in 50-pound boxes are
handicapped to q considerable extent
by reason of the package not being uni
form with those received in the same
market from other places. 1t might
be greatly to the advantage of apple
shippers 10 use barrels instead of boxes.
Several elements enter into the prob
cost and adapatability of the barrel as
4 fruit package, compared with the
box ordinarily used Oh this coast for
barrel package also that it is much
tents are thus less liable to injury.
Then, again, we are told that all apples
reaching the Eastern market in boxes
are rated below No. l, and cannot be
sold at the highest price, no matter
what their condition. 1t ia claimed to
lie a rule of the trade that all apples
rated as No. l must be in barrels.
These are some of the considerations
which appear to be in favor of the bar
rel as fruit package, and it must be
said that many of them have weight
when the matter is investigated. The
cause of the difference i'm custom prob
ably lies in the fact that the Oregon fir
makes up more readily into boxes than
into the barrels made out of the more
fibrous woods in the East.-Oregonian
TThe two STAYED barrel which las
been put OH the market by J. s. Nc
MILAN no doubt will be the kind for
future use as an apple package for long
distance shipments.-ED.]

of the grower for their labor-plowing,
cultivating, pruning, gathering and
curing the fruit-and $40 will be lib
eral estimate for all the cost outside the
home work-that is, If the nome people
are workers.
Here let us say that it is necessary.
to insure profit on small orchards, that
the family do as much work as possible.
Small orchards that require no hired
labor will be a certain source Of income,
while if the labor is hired the income
must be small.
If a man with good management and
lots of hard sense plants large orchard
he may succeed by executive ability
and power of organization, but he must
have all these to meet expenses.
While excellence is indispensable,
good management is also essential.

The prune crop of Oregon is mostly
marketed, and at rather low figures.
It is probable there was All average
price paid of cents a pound, and also
probable that there was an average
product Of 1900 pounds to the acre.
This would give $12O as the sum real
lied for each acre Of bearing prunes,
and at cost of II cents per pound fol-
growing and curing. This leaves $75
and acre of profit for the successful
prune grower.
1t may be that II cents per pound
will not cover the rent of the soil, and
wear and tear, but if it does not that is
a healthy income to make from an acre
of land, besides the fact that living
wages have been made from the work
done on it.
It will be true that Of the total $40
per acre, fully 500 went to the family

ABOUT ITALIAN PRUNES.

A gentleman who has been in thu
prune orchards of Utah, and another
who has visited those of Boise and Pay
cite valley in Idaho, speaking Of the
effect Of irrigation there, each claimed
that Italian prunes that had abundance
of water did not fall off when dry
weather came, as they SO often do In
this valley, and other parts west Of the
Cascades.
1t is asserted that irrigation prevent.
this falling off, and it will be interest
ing for fruit growers to ascertain what
is the fact IN this matter.
The great trouble with the Italian
prune is that it is shy bearer; that
often in summer time its leaves turn
yellowish or pale, and seem shriveled.
We have used . solution of Bordeaux
that seemed to invigOrate the italian
strength and keep 1t green.
It is necessary to study the needs OF
all trees, and provide what they need,
to secure good results, and the italian
evidently needs something it does not
always get to keep it on the tree.
It is not from being overloaded, for
we have seen them fall i'm August when
almost grown, with but few on the tree.
It is very evident that it does i'll
where there is hard-pan close below the
surface. 1t needs depth Of soil and
moisture, but even on river land OF
great fertility, naturally underdrained,
the fruit sometimes falls badly, though
it is far more certain there than on clay
soils with poor drainage
As to irrigation being preventive OF
the fruit falling, it is said that it falls
more less in the Yakima and Walla
Walla valleys, that are irrigated, so
that may not be a specific. But the
question is very important as to what
conditions will enable the italian prune
to bear with regularity.
