eminent reports show that the apple
crop this season is given as 67.s per
cent of full yield. Last year It was
b7.s per cent, so that basing the
outlook for the price on this, the
market should be practically as good
as in 1911. Peaches, he thinks, may
be a shade lower than last season, as
the crop in the west averages some
what better.
Besides apples and peaches, the
Eismann ranch has gained local
reputation as a producer OF high
grade potatoes Last year ths crop
of Burbanks was 800 sacks per
acre, and the nine acres now grow
ing are expected to produce not less
than 1000 sacks The acreage in
the country is large this season. so
that Mr.. Eismann does not anticipate
so strong a price. though he says he
can make big money at s1.00 per
hundred. The potatoes were planted
late, as is the practice, but are max
ing a satisfactory growth, and are
now being irrigated.

ASHLAND TORRENT is
CAUSE OF MURKY ROGUE
(From Mondays Daily)

Rogue river has been running
murky and high since Saturday, a
miniature cludburst that struck the
Ashland and Bear Creek countries
being responsible. Rain fell In tor
rents and the ground was whitened
with hailstones as large as pigeons
eggs. 1t was the severest hailtsorm
ever recorded In that section, and did
some damage to peaches and other
fruits, Bear creek became a roaring
torrent for few minutes, wall OF
water sweeping down as high as the
highest water mark of last winter,
The storm was accompanied by a
heavy electrical display The north
and west part of Ashland received
hardly drop of water, but from the
new high school east and south the
country was deluged and blanketed
uy hail
The same storm flooded the foot
hills about Eagle Point, sending
Butte Creek on a rampage and put
ting the telephone line out OF COM
mission, filling the desert with pools
of water, and muddying the waters
of the Rogue. No other damage is
reported.
Thursday evening a heavy shower
fell east and north of Central Point,
but beyond filling the road with
puddles, did no damage.
