Fruit Growers Meeting.

The annual meeting of the Lin
coin County Fruit Growers Union
was held at the courthouse last
Wednesday afternoon. A large del
egation of fruit growers from all over
the county was present, President
Ramsdall presiding.
S. G. Irwin of Newport; N. L. Me-
Elwain of Toledo; George Hodges of
Elk City; d. B. Ramsdall of Elk
City, P. II. Martin of Harlan were
elected rs directors.
A committee composed Of Messrs.
Martin, Bell, and Crosno was ap-
pointed to revise the bylaws and
constitution, and report at the next
regular meeting.
Many short but enthuiastic
speeches were made by members
and Others interested regarding the
raising and handling of fruit, and
the importance of union among the
fruit raisers in handling the mark
citing of the fruit. Mr.. Martin of
Harlan, who is an old Hood River
apple grower, told of the workings
Of the union at that place and gave
some very interesting facts.
Among the good things that he
said was that he knew apples could
be raised in Lincoln county at least
25 per cent cheaper than they can
be raised at Hood River. Mr..
Martin also said that when they
first began to raise apples at Hood
River their lands went up to hun
dred dollars per acre, and they
thought that was q large price.
Now, since the fruit industry there
has reached such world wide rep
utation, the same land is bringing
from $1,000 to $500 per acre and
/ is not for sale at even that figure.
He thinks Lincoln county's lands
can be made to command the some
prices when the iruit industry is
developed as it should be.
p. A. Miller said he had young
orchard which he will have pruned
within a few weeks and wanted the
union to meet at his place when the
work was done. A request will be
made to the Oregon Agricultural
college to send a representative over
to instruct the union on methods of
pruning young orchards, and give
a practical lesson.
The meeting adjourned to meet at
Elk City at their next regular meet
