DISHONEST PACKING
IN ROGUE RIVER

Charles Meserve, manager of the
Grants Pass Fruit Growers assooia-
tion was in Ashland last Saturday to
meet with the Ashland Fruit Growers
association to consider lseveral mat
ters OF interest 10 the two ass ocia-
tions, the principal of which was to
effect cooperation in the shipping
of fruit and the buying of :paper and
other supplies.
The Ashland Fruit Growers associa.
tion has las members and is the iold-
est and largest association in Rogue
River valley. The yield of fruit OF all
kinds is up to the average about Ash
land and the association will handle
more this season than In any previous
year, owing to the gain in member
ship and in young orchards coming
into bearing.
AL is not success with the Ashland
association and it has troubles In
plenty and chat are serious and which
can only be eradicated by thorough
campaign of education with the
members and the strict enforcement
of the same grading and packing rules
that the Hood River association has
so successfully employed to give that
famous district the highest prices had
by growers In the United States for
apples and Strawberries, the two
fruits that they grow. Prior to last
year the members did their own grad
ing and packing with the result that
the buyers made such kick about
poor packing, bad fruit in the center
of the boxes aud cups and short
weight that many of the best custom
ers were lost to the association. Last
year the association did all the grad
ing and packing. The dealers were
delighted and orders came in plenty
but the mossback element In the asso-
citation opposed this innovation and
this spring it was voted by small
majority that the memb bers again do
their own grading and packing. As
the other fruit growers associations
on the Pacific coast have been raising
the standard OF their pack the buyers
we're less inclined than ever to stand
the interior pack that the Ashland
association was shipping them so they
cancelled orders bv wire and by mail
and crisis was brought on Manager
Johnson's office.
To take measures to remedy this
state OF affairs President Brigg called
a meeting OF the association last Sat
urday afternoon that was attended
by lulge number of the members.
President Briggs made frank state
ment OF the conditions in which the
a sociation was placed by the careless.
ness and dishonesty Of some Of the
members and he admonished the
members that they must raise the
standard of their pack or the reputa-
tion of their fruit would be a thing
of the past. He stated that when In
Portland last week he was shown at
Wholesale houses handling Ashland
fruit cups of cherries that weighed
but 10 ounces ana many that weighed
but IA to 10 ounces and few that
weighed the full pound. Strawberries,
lpgsn berries and other berries were In
plenty that we're both short weight
and that we're faced with fine berries
on top and had fruit ct inferior in
the center and bottom ss to be almost

ter pack was put up that Manager
johnson would be compelled to have
every box opened and inspected ard
th IN classed In the grade it warrant
ed and sold accordingly.

KEMP NOTINLIV
NO GROUND FOR BELIEF THAT
HE HAD BEEN FOUND.

The mystery regarding the whereabouts
of James Arthur Kemp is still unsolved 1t
WAS for q short time yesterday supposed
that he had been definitely located, but
later developments indicate that this was
mistake.
The basis for the belief yesterday that
the man had been found was a cablegram
received at the Department OF State from
the American embassy at London stating
that the Liverpool police department had
inquired formally whether Kemp was still
wanted in washington The cablegram was
Immediately communicated by the State
Department to police headquarters. and
INSPECTOR Boardman lost no time in cabling
to Liverpool direct an affirmative answer to
the question.
This morning. however, the inspector call
ed at the department and informed the Or
ficials that his reply from Liverpool in
dicated that Kemp was not there. 1t was
impossible for the department to learn the
basis for the original inquiry from Liver
pool.
The State Department has been doing
everything in its power to assist the local
police in capturing the runaway, and to
this end it has sent to every American en-
bassy, legation and consulate copies of the
printed notice issued from the district at
torney's office here with the half-tone pro-
duction of Kemp's photograph. and required
this to be posted everywhere.
