A GOOD
OUTLOOK
FOR PRUNES
Some Growers Think the
Opening Prices Will be Best

Salem Special
The stock holders of the Willamette
Valley Prune Association formed a pool
Of 500 600 pounds Of Italian prunes, and
adher, d to the price established come
time ago, which was cent basic, in
b,Qs. The association has already sod
all its Petite prunes at the best prices
offered. aud as il has orders for more
than the quantity owned by the stock
holders, the manager is buying Petite
prnnes to Gil the orders. No prices on
Petites we're given out, but it is learned
from outside sources that the association
received the top OF the market to date
The market for Italians has not opened
here.
While the outlook for prune prices is
much more promising now than it was
early in the season, many growers are Of
the opinion that the opening prices will
be the best. The drouth in the East
stimulated demand Tor prunes held by
the California Association, and the com.
bine unloaded the greater part of its
holdings. At the same time, the pruEes
sold were not consumed, and the bulk
OF the hold-over crop remains to be
marketed in competition with this years
crop. The output of dried apples and
dried pears will be comparatively small
and this will create more demand for
dried prunes, but even this advantage |
does not lead growers 90 believe that
high prices will he received Several |
growers who expressed themselves today |
say they will sell at the best figure offer
ed on the day their fruit is ready for
market. and few believe it is good pol
Icy to sell now at prices quoted. Dealers
have been Offering for Petites, cents
net or 4l4 cents with some percentages
IF, for 4Os. Perhaps 4ll cents net could
DO had for good lot OF fruit Italian
,runes usually sell at a slightly higher
,rice than Petites, and growers think
hey should receive AZ cents net for the
ormer, while cents is offered for the
after. A AZ cent price for 40s would ,
'e a go cent basis, or d cent below the =
'asis price estimates some time ago by I
he directors OF the will annette Valley
rune Association.
The price may go, above' the 81 cent
asis, but II growers continue to enter
ain the present opinions now few will y
old their fruit for better price than is
ffered when the prunes are dried. Men !
,ho have considered the situation in sc
california predict THAT when the new h
rop comes on the market there will be I
ONE price cutting that will send the
rice down below the opening figure.
he California Association, apparently,
aust sell in competition with hold over \
lock now outside the association, and !
lso with new prunes held outside the v
ssociation. II the combine holds out
; it did last year Oregon growers will a
g greatly benefited thereby,
BY "basis price" is meant the price
aid for the four sizes, go to 20 20 to 80, v
to 30, and 80 TO 100 to the pound
he price to be paiG for any particular d
ze can be computed when the basis I
rice is known. c
When prunes are selling on basis Of 9
y cents for the four sizes Cos to zoos, c

Owning Books.

In newspaper was recently printed
a letter from book lover asserting that
books were of little use to those who
only borrow them or receive them as
gifts. He objected, as Ruskin also did.
to cheap books, and said he was almost
concinced that if the cheapest books
cost five dollars or more the world would
be better off,
No doubt, says the editor Of st. Mich.
olas, this is an extreme statement, and
The courier., 1901-08-10

would have to be expressed more eau
tiously to be true. Yet there is some
truth in the idea that books may be too
plentiful and too easy to buy. There is.
possibly, a likeness between libraries and
schools in this respect. The boy or
girl in big school is not 30 likely to
form friendships as il in smaller school.
Where there is. too wide choice, there
is less intimacy. So in the library. A
large library is not so likely to become
familiar and valued as a smaller collec-
tion we'll chosen.
The very company Of books is edu-
eating. As one sits before the bookcases
and glances at his favorite volumes, il is
as il each said word or two or sug-
gested thought. Thus boys eye
may fall upon his copy Of "Tom Brown
at Rugby" and in his mind rises the re-
membrance Of the great hare. and hound
run in which Tom and East and the
Tadpole struggled so pluckily, and at
last held that delightful little interview
with DIR. Arnold; or visions OF East's
tricks on old Martin. There is no Ieed
to open the book-one breathes it's
healthful air at the mere sight Of it's
title. So from each old favorite there
comes friendly greeting, and we recall
the pleasant hours spent in its company.
A great orator said: Books are the
windows through which the soul looks
out. A home without books is like
room without windows. No man has a
right to bring up children without sur
rounding them with books il he has the
means to buy books"
