MARKETING ASSOCIATION.
Producers OF Several States Are Or
ganizing.

Chicago, ILL.,, June 12.-Following
the organization of the Michigan
branch of the American Society Of
Equity a short time ago at Owosso,
the national association called a meet
ing, which opens here today at the
Great Northern hotel, for the purpose
of forming a Marketing association.
The new association is to be COM
posed of farmers and its object is to
market all kinds Of perishable vege-
tables and fruits, as well as butter,
eggs, poultry and all kinds of dairy
products. Farmers of Michigan, In
diana, Illinois and other middle states
are in attendance. 1t Is proposed to
control the supply of all products till
the markets are ready for 1t, and in
this way bring to the producers all the
benefits that are derived by others
from storing vegetables, fruits. eggs
and the like, at time of plenty and
low prices for a time of scarcity and
high prices.
1t is distinctly stated that the new
organization is not to be a trust, but
is simply to be organized for the pur-
pose of eliminating the individual as
marketer of his products, and
market through the association,
though they may reach the consumer
ultimately through the same channels
| as now.

IMPROVE ARMY RIFLE RANGE
VIII Spend s25, 900 on Famous Range
at Fort Riley.

Washington, D. c., June lit Is
the intention of the war department
to expend about one-fourth of this
years appropriation for target ranges
in the improvement Of the marksman-
ship facilities at Fort Riley, Kas. The
department still hopes that the range
at the Kansas army post may be so
equipped as to afford an opportunity
to hold the national match of 1907
there. II this idea is approved, 1t will
mean an expenditure at Fort Riley of
fully $4,000. This will leave only
$4,000 for the rest of the country
and It is a great question how this
may be profitably allotted and how to
get the most out of the disbursement
Among the places which are re-
garded by the military authorities as
deserving of special and immediate at
tention, are the target ranges at Fort
Sill, Okla; Cheyenne, Wyo.; and Fort
Sheridan, Ill. Major General Wade al
Governors island, has been asked tc
make his recommendation regarding
the allotment Of target range funds
in the Atlantic division, and 1t is pos
sible that a small fraction of the sun
remaining of the Fort Riley allot
ment will be expended at a few points
in General Wade's territory
The total fund to be available aftel
July 1, however, Is only about one
tenth of what the war department au
thorities regard as absolutely neces
sary, IL there is to be the proper pro
motion OF national craftsmanship.

TOUGH SALOONS CAUSED 1T.
Malheur County Revolted at the Vio'
lation Of the Law.

Malheur county carried for prohibit
ton at the recent election, and now
that county will be without saloons
for at least two years M. Jacobs
gard, formerly of Baker City but
who has been engaged in the whole
sale liquor business in Ontario for the
past six months, Is in Baker today,
says the Herald. He says the vote
for prohibition carried by an alarming
majority in that country, only three I
four precincts In the entire county
going wet.
This will put many saloons and
wholesale houses In that county out
OF business. Mr.. Jacobsgaard, In dis
cussing the situation, said:
1.-THE real cause OF Malheur going
for prohibition is the manner In which
the saloons have been conducted. I
believe a majority Of the voters Of
Malheur are in favor of saloons II they
are conducted along the proper lines.
But in Malheur there was gambling
and music and open towns and every
thing that the prohibitionists could
object to in addition to the regular
liquor business. The result was that
the county went dry. And II may be
some time before the people vote for
saloons again.

FTeewater, June 12.-It is found
that the strawberry crop of the Free
water Milton district will be consider
ably short of what was at first antici-
pated. 1t is now estimated that the
entire amount shipped out this season
will amount to but 1000 crates, the
usual shipment being from $4,000 to
10000 crates. Many of the growers
did not complain. however, as the
prices have been high, and the berries
were good, bringing most of them as
much as on former years.
Blackberries will be shipped the
last of the month, a bumper crop be-
ing expected. Cherries are now COM
ing in, but there will be short crop.
Green peas are also being shipped out
in large quantities.
The price now being paid for straw
berries is s1.75 and $500, the early
ones having brought as high as $3.50
| and $500. Cherries are selling for
s2.00 per crate. The recent heavy
rain and the late frost injured the
strawberry crop materially.

ton, has sold 16-acre tract of land
