Another criticism Is the failure to
learn how to pack and handle the
fruit. kindergarten methods are bad.
And right here I want to say that
more fruit is spoiled through loose
packing than through solid packing
Slack packing will chafe the life out
of the best fruit grown. The keeping
qualities of green fruit are such as to
enable the buyer to regulate his bus
mess. There seems to be an impress
sion that Seattle is the whole coast;
that Is with those shipping west.
II they would remember that there is
a long coast north and south some
of the fruit wouldn't swell as much
"The tendency to try to realize on
the whole orchard is to be deplored.
Windfalls and good fruit all come to-
gether in so many instances as to indl-
cate that something is wrong. Fruit
in poor company is known by the
company it keeps. Graded fruit will
bring a better return than the run Of
the orchard unsolicited. Growers can
ship less and get more money. Not
only that but they can turn their at
tention to utilizing the by-products
and add to their revenue.
THAT there are not more individu-
al shippers is a surprise. The fruit
men throughout the country with a
national reputation are not men who
grow better fruit than that produced
here. There is none better. They
are the men who select their own
shipping stock and keep out the in
ferior stuff. Here you have scores
of men with the necessary capital to
enable them to do their own busi-
ness and am surprised that so few
are thus engaged. Those making the
greatest success have taken that step.
The money goes with the greatest
care and attention.
Having picked and packed their
fruit some growers resurrect the most
unique rigs for transporting It to the
shipping point. In many instances
there Is failure to realize properly
the perishable quality Of the freight.
However, in this respect I can say
that there have been new wagons in
evidence this year and the number Is
| increasing. / saw n citizen of some
prominence drive in a few days ago
and pull box Of loose fruit from the
back Of his rig, throw It down and
ask for weight, saying he would make
n box out Of It anyway. His care Of
It was minus quantity. hate to see
good stuff spoiled.
And that reminds me that with
the strawberries there is a whole lot
spoiled through failure to cover the
entire patch each day. This picking

From the point of view of man
who for a score of years has handled
fruit for shipment l would like to read
a lecture to the Yakima valley fruit
growers" said S. L. Rowland to a
number of fruitmen gathered in front
OF one of the city hotels yesterday.
Mr.. Howland is a foreman of packers
who has followed the highways of
the continent and sought to learn
something of the various localities by
actual contact with the conditions in
them. What he had to say was list
ened to with interest by many fruit
men, some of whom agreed with
more and some with less of his views.
There is no question as to the fruit
which can be and is grown here" said
Mr.. Howland, but It certainly can be
said that the proportion Of men who
know what to do with 1t after 1t is
grown is limited. / know nothing
about the growing of fruit, and don't
profess to, but l do know how to ham
die it, and starting in at the begin
ming l say that right here 1 notice a
tendency TO allow the fruit to remain

They were in such condition that they

Jack Kness, of this place, was shot
and, it is believed, mortally wounded
at 10 o'clock tonight at Vollmer, a
mile distant from here, in McBride's
saloon, by the proprietor says the
Ilo correspondent of the Lewiston
Tribune. The particulars of the un-
fortunate affair are meager.
Kness had gone to Vollmer yester-
day and returned here feeling very
sore over something that had occurred
there. He got his pistol and went
back to Vollmer today
- He went into McBrlde's saloon and
treated. When drinking Kness Is in
clined at times, to be quarrelsome.
In the course of the remarks that
passed Kness complained that the
Volmer people were sore at his hotel,
and further along applied an often
sive name to Mcbride. Mcbride
struck at Kness across the bar, when
the latter started around the counter
to get at Mcbride. Mcbride also
started from around the bar and the
two men met at the end of the coun-

Oregon Can Employ an Army of Men

"Ten thousand farm laborers can

round" says Fruit Inspector Reid to
the Oregon Daily Journal. UNLESS
some relief is forthcoming in the
near future the oregon farmer will
find himself confronted with an ex-
igency that threatens to assume CO.
lossal consequences. The Oregon
producer will be unable to compete
against the eastern grower because
of the steadily increasing wage de-
manded and paid the farm laborer
Every thoughtful agriculturist
realizes the truth of this assertion"
says Reil, "whether he be a grower
of hops, fruit, grain or a dairyman.
Millard C. Lownsdale, for instance,
the most extensive orchardist in Ore
gon, last year lost 10 carloads in Ore
pies because the labor to gather the
crop was not available.
Hop Growers Big Losers.
Losses that will aggregate in the
