GROWERS PLEASED
WITH new UNION
Special to the Glacier.

Special to the Glacier.
White Salmon, Wash, MAY 3O.-As
nearly as We can estimate there are
loo acres in Strawberries this season.
This acreage is dotted throughout the
valley and ranges in altitude from
lOO feet to 1900 feet above sea level.
The berries that grow on the "bot-
TOM are fully three weeks earlier
than those grown along the foot hills.
This gives the White Salmon valley a
long strawberry season, the late ber-
rles. bringing almost as much in the
open market as the early ones.
Which section produces the best
berries? That is hard to say. For my
own taste | prefer the foot hills,
for, as in life, when the severe strug-
gle for existance ends in victory there
is always added a finer charater,
which to berries is firmness and fla
vor. In size and yield Gaere is not
much difference 1t speaks well for
the foothill berries that after the taste
Is laded these berries are able to re-
vive the appetite.
The plants are nearly all two or
three years old. This brings them
into their prime Of rigor and pro-
ductiveness. They are sturdy and
have put forth large amount of fruit.
The season has been favorable. So
much of the spring has been chilly
and cloudy with interspersing showers
While that kind of weather is not
good for ripening fruit, yet it is
splendid for growth, size, firmness
and flavor.
Or berries give promise of from 100
to LOO crates to the acre according to
care and attention bestowed. The
berries are unusually large, some be-
ing three tier berries.
We can't justly judge the work of
the White Salmon Fruit Union until
the berry season is over and all the
returns are in. For a new organiza-
tion it has made remarkable progress.
Over three-fourths CT all the growers
in the valley are members. They are
well satisfied so far. They have never
shipped berries with less trouble and
and larger profit than they have this
season.
Our manager meets the shippers on
this side; receives, inspects and bills
the berries. BY wise distribution
of shipment no market has been over
stocked and so the price has been
good. There has been no fictitious
prices qouted. The first berries
brought 57.oO in the open market.
1t has been the policy of the Union
to make rigid eximanation of all
berries shipped. None but the best
have been sent out as A No. /, and
from the reports received, the White
Salmon berry is establishing a name
for itself second to none.

The Dalles Odd Fellows dedicated
their new lodge hall last Thursday
night. Among the outside visitors

Fellows and their families attended the
impressive dedicatory services.
On the first of November, 1856, Co

so during almost 30 years they have
had no permanent abiding place.
Their new meeting place is their own
property and building which does

Large Beet Acreage.

Hotchkiss rs coming to the front with
a production of sugar beets- Last year
being an initial one, several who were
inclined to engage in the business
waited until this year. At the present
writing there have been contracted for
over six hundred acres. an increase Of
three hundred per cent over last year.
This acreage will insure the erection of
tipple for unloading the beets which
would be highly essentisl as the large
amount of beets to be shipped could
not be handled any other way. This
industry promises to rival the fruit
raising in this locality and means many
thousands of dollars each year to the
farmer and of course all for the real
benefit of the country, for the more
diversified the interests, the less chance
for failure-Paonia Newspaper.

that boxes of fifty cent Ben Davis sold
readily in May for s. at wholesale, but
we scarcely anticipate that such prices
will be realized this year.
The selection of trees is very i'm
portant feature in orchard goowing, for
npon care and good judgment in this
particular depend largely the future
life and profits of our investments.
Trees with strong, stocky, vigorous
trunks, abundant root systems, well
formed tops end medium in size are the
only ones that should be given place in
the young orchard. 1t is better to pay
twenty cents for tree of this descrip-
ton than ten cents for one of inferior
quality. The age of tree is not so
important as vigorous and hardy growth
and dstocky-make-up. The best trees
are not always those of largest size.
A two-year-old tree, all things con-
sidered, will give best satisfaction, al
though there are those among our
Colorado planters who prefer whip Of
only one years growth. while there are
some that have preference for stock
three year old. We believe that when
two-year-old trees are selected much
will be gainnied cost.

THE COUNTY FINANCES.
Delta County's Liabilities Now

The semi annual statement compiled
by Ex- County Clerk Ferguson does not
show that Delta county is in such bad
way financially. In fact the liabilities
of the county are about $36, 200 less
than on December 81, 1902.

kinds
