There was, however no king, khedive

OF the best huckleberry picking
grounds.
Seasons Bright Features.
There were three bright features
of the past season, however, Mr.. Ew-
aid says-the cherries, plums and
pears. The cannery handled more
cherries this season than the two
previous combined and this applies
also to plums, while the pears were
a good normal crop. So far as the
cannery is concerned, its pack up
to the present time is about 25 per
cent more than last year, and the
season has been quite gratifying
though the prices have been unus-
ually low.
This week the cannery started in
on canning apples. buying as many as
it can locally at prices about the
same as last year, averaging $40 a
ton, and will be busy with this fruit
for the next six weeks, expecting to.
handle from 40 to SO carloads. Last
year it operated but five apple-pear-
ing machines, but this year it has in
stalled five more. 1t expects a heavy
run on huckleberries, too, and later
on cabbage and pumpkins, which
will close the season.
