Shortage In Fruit Boxes.

Samuel B. Cobb, manager Of the
Standard OK company, tells the Jour,
nal that the box factories In Portland
are finding it difficult to fill their
orders.
"The apple and prune crops in the
vicinity of Portland must be record
breaker" said Mr.. Cobb, "judging
from the unusual demand for fruit
boxes. The territory supplied by the
box manufacturing concerns of this
city is chiefly confined to Portland
and vicinity and the fruit-raising dis
tricts along the Columbia river from
Hood River to Astoria. Heretofore
we have had no difficulty in supply
ing this territory, but we have turned
down scores of orders this season.
Fortunately the Rogue River and 9th
or southern Oregon fruit districts
manufacture their own boxes. If they
depend upon Portland facories as for
merly they would be up against.a hard
problem. "
+. A. Douty, secretary of the Multi.
nomah Lumber 4 Box company, re-
ports that his concern can't begin to
supply the local demannd for fruit
boxes. 1t is said that the entire out
put of the largest box factory in Port
Iannd will not supply the demand OF
the prune- packing plants located In
Vancouver, Washington.

Emit CannerY Works 800 Girls.

The following fsom the Yakima Re-
public concerning the fruit canning
Industry at North Yakima, gives q
clear idea of the value of cannery to
city:
Employed in the Webber Russell
csnnery, and in the commission and
shipping houses on the west side OF
the track, are about 500 Yakima girls.
Those who work at the cannery are
preparing fruit for canning purposes,
while those employed in the commits
sion houses are packing fruit for ship
ping purposes.
That city the size of North Yaki-
ma could find employment for as
many young girls and women as this
seems remarkable. Ii goes to Prove
however, that the fruit industry OF
the Yakima valley is king Of all others
at the present time, and the great de-
mand for its fruit is shown in the
daily shipments to all points over the
country.
Shipped from here daily last week
by all the fruit dealers we're on an av-
erage of six cars Of prunes, five cars
of peaches, three cars OF cantaloupes
and watermelons, and two cars of ap-
pies. The largest shippers and those

Pants are made 70 men and not for
women. Women we're made for man
and not for pants. When a man pants
for a woman aud woman pants for a
man-these, my friend, are pair of
pants, but.these pants do not last. 10
make pants last, make the coat first.
Pants are like molasses, because they
are thinner in hot weather and thick
er in cold weather. A fat man cannot
keep up his pants in hot weather
without suspenders, but dog can.
Men sometimes make mistakes in
pants, and these mistakes are cplled
breeches of promise. There has been
much discussion, my friends, as to
weather pants is singular or plural.
In my mind, when a man wears pants
it is plural, but when he does not, II

"a growers association n the ia
nous Hood River valley OF Oregon is
reported to have closed a deal few
days ago for the sale of it's apples
about Go caIs-at prices nearly equal

pies, however, have gained an envia-
BILE reputation, being unusually large

perhaps the highest priced trade in
the country-the wealthy New York

the part of Iival dealers from the

siderable extent for the fancy prices.
While not authoritatively specified,
it is said that these Oregon apples, OF
which there is only limited quanti'
ty available, brought the remarkable
price of 81. %, or there-abouts, to 81

Building Sample Road at PendletOn.

At last the county court has agreed
upon a location Tor the sample maca-
dam road that is to be built by the
government engineers, the Wild Horse
road was selected. The choice was
formally agreed upon yesterday after
the commissioners and SurveyoI Kim
brell had visited the location during
the afternoon. The county surveyo or
will at once make survey of the road
and forward the same to Washington.
However, the court decided that a
half mile of experimental road was
sufiiient, and that amount will be
constructed instead Of the mile which
was first proposed. The half mile is
to cost about $1,000, the county hav.
inv to pay for all tue labor. The road
will commence just beyond the first
bill ater the road leaves the Umatilla,
and will extend for half mile. East

Evergreen Blackberry a Pest.

A newspaper In Douglass county re-
ports that the evergreen blackberry is
becoming a great nuisance in some
portions of that county. We have
feared that this might come about in
Oregon from observations of its
gro With. 1t is probable that the ever
green black berry is the same variety
which is a great nuisance in New Zea-
land, where it is ranked among the
worst agricultural pests, 1t is proba.
BILE that climatic conditions in New
Zealand are even more favorable to
the evergreen blackberry than they
are in Western Oregon, but it is a
plant which needs restraint almost
eyerywh here in Western Oregon.
