FRI CROP THIS SEASON
ESTIMATED AT 100000
1t Will Cost About $l75,OOO In Labor to
Harvest Product, Besides $4,000 for
Box and Basket Material

The fruit crop of the Revision.
Charleston valley with that portion of
the Snake river tributary I'd Lewiston
will bring the growers an aggregat.
sum Of 100000.
The cost of producing and market
ing this crop will approximate $175,-
600 in labor, besides an expenditure
of $4,000 for box material
In the gathering and packing of the
fruit 1,500 persons will be employed
and the growers are now contracting
for the seasons labor. The labor ques-
ton is said to be a serious one and
nearly half of the number required
to handle the crop will necessarily be
brought from outside points.
The fruit season is now at hand and
within a few weeks the orchards Will
be filled with pickers and large forces
will be employed in the packing sta
tons. The big fruit packing house of
White Bros. & Crum will be opened
in Charleston next week, and early
cherries and strawberries will be ship
ped from this point by May Is. This
firm will employ 200 persons in Clarks-
ton and at points on Snake river
where fruit is received in bulk form.
The opening of the fruit season IS
a week later than usual in the Lewis
Charleston valley but from the time
of the ripening of the first cherries and
Strawberries the rush will be undated
until the last of the fall apples have
been received in early October.
Careful estimate compiled by grow
ers and dealers show the crop to be
gathered to be about 25 Der cent OF

the capacity of the acreage, due to
the youngness of the trees. Tire acre
age will aggregate about 5000 acres
and large per cent is young trees
just coming into bearing.
It is also estimate with the cop,~
pletioa of the three irrigation projects
now under construction the annual
income to the growers from the fruit
output will reach $5,oo0,O00
This estimate, based upon this
years crop and the per cent cost of
labor and box material, gives some
idea of the. magnitude of the future
industry and its benefits to labor and
manufacturing.
The estimates of the crop show the
large per cent to be peaches with cher
industry is also an important feature
and with the large vineyards to come
into bearing in the next two years
the grape crop will become one of the
most important.
Due to the wonderful success attain
ed in the cultivation of grapes, large
areas will be planted and the expor-
tation of wine promises to be large
factor in the commercial interests Of
the community.
The value of the crop for this year
has been divided in reference to the
several varieties in the following man.
ner: Peaches, $4,000; cherries, $780,
900; grapes 100000; plums, 5000;
prunes, $4,000; pears, $4,000; apples,
$4,000; apricots, $4,000; almonds.
$4,000: Strawberries, melons and by
products of the orchards, $4,000.

NATAL DAY OF
MAD KING OTTO
For Years Has Never Been
Outside of Castle
Grounds
Special to Evening Teller.

! Special to Evening Teller.
| MUNICH, April 27.-With little Wis
ible change apparent either in his
mental or physical condition since he
| assembled the throne of Bavaria %
years ago the mad King Otto today
entered upon the sixtieth year Of his
life. For many years he has never
seen outside the grounds of Fuersten-
ried castle.
He has been hopelessly insane since
the summer of 1884, his kingdom be-
ing ruled by a regent, yet the royal
title is still vested in the useless piece
of clay surrounded by a host of
lackeys and servants, who approach
and serve their insane master with
all outward signs of homage and re-
spect, while they and all the world
know of his utter decay--for he is the
king.
Gradually Growing Worse.
Reports from time to time have had
it that the king has become worse.
Those in a position to know, however,
state that this is not true and that
there has been little change in his
condition since he assembled the throne.
He was hopelessly insane then as he
Is now.
His lucid intervals always have been
! few and of short duration. He is to-
tally ignorant of his terrible aff1iction
and converses on subjects referring
| to his immediate Surroundings logical
ly and with volubility of speech.
| When at his worst his attendants
have the greatest difficulty to prevent
him filing his mouth with whatever ne
can lay his hands on, and when out
walking in the park he has been dis
covered devouring grass or leaves. and
even filling his mouth with earth.
| Occasionally he will invite the gen.
tlemen of his court to dinner, and,
while they are discussing the meal,
will himself stand with the servants
and stealthily nibble at the dainties
within his reach.
Exhibits Great Piety.
! His medical attendant and the ply
sicians who visit him from time to

king may still live many years, his d.

Was cleaving crystal Seine.

Had caught tke city's stain
Swiftly the Iimpid current flowed.
And sweet with hawthorn bowers
Where dark against the sunset showed
A ring of fortress towers
Iaereat the swimmer. half in sport
A furious gesture made:
A curse upon the dingy fort
That casts SO dark a shade!
By every stone in yonder walls
And Louis heart l swear

A dripping athlete, rose,
And glittering in the western CLEAN
Did on his threadbare clothes.
One careless, scornfu pebble cast
AT the grim sentinel;
Laughed as the fellow scowled; and
passed
Ere the first shadows fell
And that was Danton. Many May
The hawthorn thickets stirred.

For, thrown by Fate on violent times
He learned their ways too well
Five years his meteor spirit blazed
Those darkened heavens through.
Then perished in the storm he raised.
And by the sword he drew.
For "BEshted be the narne.' he cried
If only France he freel''

TWO FORESTRY LECTURES
STUDENTS HEAR TALKS on PROD
UCTs OF FORESTS.

Yesterday at the university Royal S.
Kellogg, forest inspector in the United
States forest service, gave two special
lectures before the students of forestry
and others interested in the work. Mr..
Kellogg has as his special work the
collection of data concerning the pro-
duction and consumption of forest pr
ducts, and his talks were along this
line. At the morning meeting Mr.. Kel-
logg gave to the students a large
amount of statistical information which
has very recently been published in
circular form, and which will soon be
elaborated to appear as a bulletin of
the forest service. 1T is not to be con-
sidered that these figures are accu-
rate said Mr. Kellogg. They mere
ly represent the most scientific guess
that can be made with the information
at hand" The statistics show the
amounts and kinds Of timber used for
lumber firewood, shingles and Iath,
hewed cross tiesn> n>cooperage stock, pulp
wood, round mine timbers, tanbark,
telephone and telegraph poles, veneer
and .distillation, and the value of tur-
pentine and resin, maple sugar and
syrup, posts, piles and other products.
The total aggregates twenty billion
cubic feet of wood, as the amount con-
sumed in this country without consid-
ering the exports and imports, for
which no figures are obtainable Of
this total amount of wood, nearly 40
per cent goes into lumber, which de-
mands the very highest class Of mate
rial. The amount of lumber now used
ia this country is thirty-five billion
board feet per year. 1t would seem that
the maximum of production had been
reached, and without a weakening of
the demand, the price of lumber is
destined to increase rapidly in the fu-
ture.
The relative rank of the first seven
species in lumber production was
shown by Mr.. Kellogg's graphic table
to be rs follows.

Continuing in the same line OF
thought in the afternoon, Mr.. kellogg
said in part:
