SOME HOP INFORMATION
DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE GIVES
SOME STATISTICS.
Cost Of Production From Time Of Planting
Until Ba.ed Other
News.

The department Of agriculture gives
the following information, which we
print for the benefit of our readers:
The price Of hops on the Pacific coast
has ranged all the way from 8 cents to
81. 10 per yound, which amply illustrates
the extreme variability and uncertainty
on the business side Of hop culture.
At 12 cents or less per pound, hop
production involves loss. At from 10
to 20 cents, the grower can make fair
liviag and may get something ahead. It
is the wide fluctuations in price that
have caused so many failures in the
business OF hop culture. The price Of
$l.l0 per pound in 1882 proved calam-
ity TO the legitimate grower. 1t led
many TO embark in the business with
dreams Of sudden wealth. Disaster to
nearly all was the natural result.
For planting an acre 1900 roots will
cost $50, and the expense OF planting
them is 81.
The high wire trellis will cost from
$50 to 500 per acre, and the cotton
twine for support Of hops SO per acre
annually.
On an average il takes more than SO
pounds Of green hops to make one Of
dry, and the cost Of picking a pound Of
dry hops is about 3 cents.
A kiln sufficient to cure the crop from
80 acres, with everything complete, will
cost from $500 to 81 600, and for dry
ing, about three.iourths Of cord Of
willow wood, worth from 81 to So per
cord, is required for every 1000 pounds
Of dry hops.
OF crude sulphur, costing . cents
pound, 80 or 40 pounds must be used Tor
every | 900 pounds Of dry hops.
Each bale requires five yards Of 2i-
ounce, 4i.inch balng cloth, which cost
from 8 TO 10 cents per yard. Sewing
twine costs 80 cents per pound.
Cost Of shipment, when the product is
marketed in England, is about $50
per hundredweight.
The following tables show the esti-
mated hop production of the Pacific
coast states for 10 years, and Of the
United States for II years, ending with
1899. These tables are made up princi-
pally Of figures published in the agricul-
tural and trade journals, whose esti.
mates are believed TO be most nearly
correct. The figures for 1895 1899, i'm
elusive, appear in the year book of the
department Of agriculture fol 1899.
Wisconsin disappears from separate
mention since the ceusus, and in esti-
mates no account appears to be taken of
the production Of any but the states
herein prominent, as 1t is comparatively
Insignificant. All accounts Of hops
herein given are in bales of $50 pounds.

ANOTHER MONTE
GLAD TO GET BACK TO CIVILIZATION
WITH A WHOLE Skin
Brings Reports OF Some Of the Salem People
None Of Them are Getting
Rich

Geo. w. Gosser OF West Salem re-
turned home yesterday from Nome. Mr.,
Gosser says that he saw many things Of
interest since he left Salem and that he
is well pleased with his trip.
On the way up they we're ship
wrecked upon the rocks for 4S hours and
the vessel discharged 4O7 tons of cargo
before they were freed from their
situation. While the vessel was aground
they explored an island that was
near by and found a monstrous Masta
don with ribs IL feet in length by 2l6
feet wide and the skull measured 81
feet across. They also found a hut or
dugout with five skeletons in it and as
there we're a number Of doctors on board
they examined them and found
that they we're white men. In the dug
out they found many curios that these
men had gathered up and he says
from the looks Of things they have been
there some time. He says that he was
in Nome City IL days and did not do
any work, but looked over
that part Of the country. While they
were there forty people Including three
women" came TO their tent begging some
thing TO eat.
Mr.. Grosser says that there 10000
people there dead broke and could not
come home il the fare was 25 cents.
The fare from Nome TO Seattle is now
advanced to $75 and no first class boats
are bringing out people as the are in the
government service. But many are
coming out in any old tub they can get
Mr.. Gosser saw Mrs. Fiester the night
before he left and says she is not making
any money at all. Also saw Mrs. Niche OILS
and she is running the Home Hospital,
but as there lie not much sickness they
are living on prospects.
Taylor and Lockiey- are still carrying
mail.
Prof. Hall was robbed Of everything
he had "even his clothes"
lie says that considerable robbery is
going on and that they chloiorm their
victims there rob them Of every thing
they have. lie left Nome on Jnly 4th,
aud arrived in Seattle IA days later.
Mr.. Gosser an interesting talker and
a man Of cluse observation. He says no
words can describe that country as II
really is. He is we'll known here having
been employed a number Of years with
Pohle & Bishop and his many friends are
glad TO see him home.

Orange Judd Farmer quotations on
New York state hops;
Utica, Oneida Co. N. Y.-The general
opinion among the growers is that the
yield Of hops will be below the average,
but that the quality will be good. A
hopeful feeling exists and the impression
prevails that prices will be higher than
for several seasons and ought to range
from 10 to zoe. Many growers are in
clined TO hold for these figures,

are small, Prices are firm but unchang-

To Raise Hop Prices.

The Oregon Hopgrower's Association
has adopted a new plan for raising the
price Of hops. President NJ. L. Jones
says Manager Winstanley has orders to
contract for hops of the 1900 crop at l /
cents and furnish picking. money, the
hops to be suject to inspection as to
quality. While the association officers
do not advise growers to contract their
hops, they feel certain the prices will be
better, and make this offer in order that
those growers who must contract may
gel II cents instead Of 10, which latter
price is the one prevailing at present.
This new move ON the part Of the as.
sociatiou means that the managers have
negotiated with capitalists for picking
money, and propose 20 control prices by
themselves offering the growers what
they think the hops are worth. While
the managers do not say so in that many
words, it is evident that they expect the
hopbuyers to go them one better by rails.

Richmond News (Dem.) !

Richmond News (Dem.)
Democratic contemporaries and orators
preach continually that the true policy for
this country is to stick strictly to its own
business and have nothing to do with the
affairs of other countries. Yet the Filipi-
nos on one side of the world and the
Beers on the other are reported to be
keeping up fights in the hope that the
success of the Democrats next November
will in some way result to their advantage.
They have probably been taught that folly
by ignorant leaders, but they seem to be-
lieve in it. The truth is, no country has
any exclusive business in this age. The
peoples of the earth are 30 knitted togeth'
err that the business of one must be the
business of ALL Mr.. Jefferson is a mag
ni6cent counsellor, but his maxims must,

ministration is mora anxious to advance
the interests of Great Britain in China
than to rescue American citizens and
Christian missionaries from the blood
thirsty barbarians. This statement, sent
out by the friends of MIR. Bryan, says;
'The diplomatic note sent out by Secreta.
ry Hay on July 8 stating the objection OF
this Government to the partition of China
was intended to aid Great Britain against
Russia, France and Germany"
1t will be remembered that the note of
Secretary Hay to the Powers won the
universal commentator of the press and
of the right thinking people Of the coun-
try. The harsh criticism of the Demo
cratic Congressional Committee is the
first unfavorable comment on the note.
The statement of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee also says: "The Ad-
ministration is now engaged in pulling
England's chestnuts out of the fire in
China, and thousands of valuable lives
and millions in treasure will be sacrificed
in the Orient because of the secret Anglo
American alliance"
Thus do we find Bryanism making a
brutal assault upon the policy of the Adj
ministration for its conduct Of the Chinese
question: policy which has been sp-
proved by all the Christian and philan-
thropic people of the country, and disap-
proved by none but the vicious politicians
who would do anything to obtain control
of the Government.
The political ghoul Organism first fed
upon the deap bodies of our gallant SOL
diers and sailors who died in the Spanish
War. Then it whetted its hideous appe-
tite upon the brave men that were falling
before the guns Of the Filipinos, who were
encouraged, by the hope of Democratic
success in the United States, to resist the
authority of our Government and kill our
soldiers. Now it is rolling, as sweet NOR
scion its brutal palate, the murdered mis-
sionaries, outraged women and butchered
foreigners, of all Nationalties, in China.
Calamity, disaster and the hideors are
peculiar diet to Bryanite statesmanship.

The Sincere Mr.. Bryan.
New York Post Qnd)l

New York Post Qnd.)l
We do not question the sincerity Of
those who maintain that Mr.. Bryan is
sincere reformer. But what reform they
expect him to accomplish, knowing who
are bis chief supporters and most trusted
lientenants, we do not understand. Fol
our own part, We can entertain no deep
conviction of the sincerity of reformer
whose bosom friend is Ex-Governor Alt
geld, the man who would not lift finger
to suppress the frightful rioting at Chica-
90, but foamed at the mouth with impo-
tent rage when President Cleveland put
down the anarchy which had come to
threaten the peace of the whole country.
We do not anticipate sincere action in
favor of purifying our politics from man
who graciously receives Mr.. Croker and
the gang who have made the Democratic
party in New York stencil in the nos.
trils Of the community. We do not look
for sincere endeavors to lessen the in
fiuence of the "money power" in our
Government from the man who admits
Mr.. Clark, of Montana, to a position Of
influence IN bis party. We do not know
that it is true that Mr.. Clark will give
81 900, OC0 to Mr.. Bryan's cause. But we
feel quite sure that if Mr.. Clark pays bis
money be will not pay 1t for nothing, and
we do not expect Mr.. Bryan to insist on
his expulsion from the Senate when he
next applies for admission. No better
test of reformer's sincerity can be found
than the company he keeps; and Mr..
Bryan does not appear to us to stand that
test.

From a Former Free Silver Organ.
Denver Republican Rep)l

Denver Republican (Rep)l
In the Presidential campaign of 1896
the advocates of bimettalism used the
fall in prices as one of their chief argu-
meuts in favor of The election OF Bryan,
because they regarded it as convincing
evidence that the purchasing power OF
money was increasing, to the benefit Of
creditors and the injury of debtors, and
most of them honestly believed that no
rise in prices could occur without the res
toration of silver to its old rights as a
coinage metal. 1t is a matter of history
now that silver was not remonetized as a
result of that election, and it is also a
fact, patent to everybody, that prices
have risen from the low water mark OF
1896 far above the level of 1892, which,
according to all statistics, was the most
prosperous year in the entire history OF
the country until 1898. 1t might be sup
posed that the rise in prices which has oc-
Cured since July /, 1896, would be in
tensely satisfactory to everybody, In
Guiding our friends, the Democrats, who
wanted to see the purchasing power Of
money decrease for the benefit of debtors,
but oddly enough that does not happen tc
be the case.
