ELLIS WILL ACCEPT
 THINKS JUDGE TAFT
FIattering Outlook for Republicans in Illinois and Northern States.

Hot Springs, Va. Aug. 25.-While the announcement cannot be definitely made MT. Taft today gave as his be- lief that Wade 1T. Ellis, attorney gen eral of Ohio, will accept the position of assistant to the attorney general, , to succeed Milton D. Purdy, who has
 been promoted to q federal judgeship
 in Minnesota. The opinion was eX- pressed after a conference between
 Ellis and Taft today.
 Optimistic political information was brought to Taft from several sources today. Senator McCumber of North Dakota, speaking for his own state. as well as for Minnesota, Montana and South Dakota, predicted that very little, if any change, would be found in the electoral votes.
 Senator Hopkins of Illinois, who is visitor here, believes the republi- can national state ticket will be suc- cessful in Illinois to the extent of 100000 majority, although it con- cedes that Gompers may turn some
 labor votes to Bryan.

CANTALOUPt CROPS
 OF FUTURE SEASONS
A Californian Protests Against the Stories of Overproduction.

J. J. Jeffrey, California's state com missioner of horticulture. writes as follows in the Los Angeles Times on the "Overproduction of Cantaloupes'
 Some one writing to the Chicago Produce News about the surplussage of cantaloupes grown at Imperial this season says:
 T am convinced there will be just as many acres planted next year as there were this. There are fresh grow CTS always looking for a snap, and leave it to the Brawley land spiders to rope in the new suckers. The ar gument will be that this was the eX- ceptional season and next year will see the big net returns, such as came in 1907. Just so long as the acreage is so large and there is such rank care- lessness about growing. picking and packing, just so long will you see low prices"
 I do not hope to contradict very sue cessfully man in his own ground, but do not think the above statement should pass without examination, even though I may display some ignorance in doing so. I remember very well when my old friend, Nat Wetzel, tried to handle the whole output of canta- loupes grown at Rocky Ford. He had the contract to dispose of the goods, but it was too much for one man. This was nine years ago. The same argu- ment of overproduction used in the News was used then, with but few hundred cars of the famous Rocky Fords" then produced in the whole cOun- try. But there was room for thOus- ands of cars, as developed later. The question then comes up, can there be an. overplus Of extremely early canta- loupes if a system of general distribu- tion is established, such as that in op- eration with the California Fruit Crow CTS Exchange? Did not the Imperial growers try to dispose of their melons through one. or very few agencies? If their marketing arrangements were defective did not that have to do with failure, more than did the persuasive ness of the land boomers? What crop has been more land boomed than oranges, or what product more eXten- sively planted by land owners as a real investment? And what fruit so profitable?
 It seems that the cantalouDe busi- ness. whether it's following is curtailed or extended, will resolve itself in this final solution: Either the growers must arrange through commission firms gen. orally for a wide and responsible dis tribution of their melons, or resolve themselves into mutual organization.

Strawberries In November.

Strangers in this section wonder
when the strawberry season ends,
but no one seems to be able to tell
them exactly, as 1t seems to depend
more on the man and the plants
than on the season. J. c. Calhoun
has been picking berries from very
early IA the spring and is sti!l at H.
and nearly every day brings straw
berries to the market. He has shin
ped some recently to Portland but
prefers to sell them at home as he
makes a little more on each box.
ries he shipped to Portland brought
12h cents, while locally he has no
difficulty in getting Is. What Mr..
Calhoun has done Others can do,
and in fact others are doing,
though his place has been called to
our attention oftener than others.
With the climate we have here,
there is no reason why our mar
kets should not be well filled with
strawberries and like fruits almost
the entire year.
