These are the busy days in the prune
harvest as the crop is all ripe and need
to be dried as fast as they fall. All the
little ones who ara able TO walk are in
the orchards from daylight till dark and
the driers are kept full. The loss OF Sir.
stones drier is felt by the whole COM
munity, but luckily for him he has an
other drier at Corvallis and will get to
save the most OF his prunes.
We have been visiting the prune or
chards the pas; week and find a lively
set Of Johnnies in all OF them and some
genuine poets among them. We listened
10 some of Their rhymes. One verse was /:
Away back east at the break Of day,
The Old man arose and cut his hay,
Jumped on horse AMI rode away"
And another reads thus:
Early one morning in June
The old man got up 10 sunc,
And chokei his cat 10y the light OF the
moon,
And fed his pig with silver spoon. IS
We accepted an invitation 10 dine with
Mr.. and Mrs. |. y. Smith. Of West Oak
vile, last TUESDAY. We never refuse
when peach pie Is on tap.
Now as the prune crop is about saved
shy not save some OF the apples? The
apple crop Is very large and il the half Of
the fruit could be dried il would save
longer in that condition and at four cents
pound II would pay better 10 dry the
apples than the Drunes.
