Most wonderful of all this berry's
fine qualities is the self-preserving
quality as shown in bottled juices.
The severe test Of commercial fit
ness has been given all the foregoing
products with the single exception of
loganberry juices, and they have met
the test in most satisfactory manner.
In addition to the commercial tests.
the far more critical test Of the labor
atory has been applied to the products.
including the juices, by the horticul-
tural department Of the Agricultural
college. These tests have established
beyond question the fact that the
berry has very unusual preseryative
qualities. Concerning these qualities
Professor Lewis, who conducted the
tests, says:
The loganberry has come to stay.
and in IL believe that Oregon has one
Of its greatest horticultural assets.
There are but few states that can grow,
good loganberries, and the demand for
this berry is going to be tremendous.
The output will doubtless be increased
very greatly and | firmly believe the
time will come when we shall ship out
Of Oregon ten million dollars worth of
this fruit yearly.
ut is a splendid berry to work up
into by-products by drying, canning
and manufacturing into juices. These
products will, ! believe, be unsurpassed
by any berry grown. II also serves as
basis for long list Of products, val
liable in confections, ice cream and
general city trade.
I'VE have conducted numerous ex-
periments during the past year In
drying, canning and juice-making with
this berry, and hope to be able soon
TO give out the information we have
gathered in handling this crop.

is not only very resistant to the action
of germs of decay, but appears not to
be inviting to the common by-products
pests.
Jams, preserves and jellies of most
fruits are generally expected to dis
play good keeping qualities, so that
great deal is expected of the logan
berry in these forms. Nor has this
expectation ever been disappointed, so
far as reports show. Unlike the fruits
that have to be heavily sugared and
greatly concentrated by boiling, these
loganberry products keep with a mini
mum of both. Hence the natural and
distinctive loganberry fiavors are pre-
served, offering the be-desired
something" different to discriminat-
ing tastes.

Uses and Care of the Loganberry.

Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
wallis = The more the loganberry is
studied the more wonderful its quali-
ties appear. Possibly its greatest
single asset is its remarkable keeping
qualities. Who ever heard of can
of spoiled loganberries? OF course
the careless and unsanitary handling
given all fruit by some people would
spoil anything, but if such treatment
has resulted in producing bad cans or
bottles of loganberries the case has not
been reported.
Dried loganberries likewise have
been on the market in limited quanti-
ties for several years and no loss from
spoiled berries has been reported here,
either by the dealers or consumers. 1t

FARM AND .l!!, ORCHARD
Notes and Instructions from Agricultural Colleges Experiment Stations
OF Oregon and Washington

81 am very enthusiastic over the
possibilities of the loganberry juice I;
more enthusiastic now than | have
ever been before. The results of our
experiments with four or five of the
products are results that we are proud
of. Recently we made up some of this
preserved juice for drinking, carbon
ated it and gave it out to a number
of our friends to sample and test.
Almost invariably they told us it was
the best temperance beverage they had
ever tasted. 1t had wonderful color,
delightful aroma and very pleasant
flavor. In all these qualities it is su-
perior to grape juice"
A strong association of loganberry
growers has recently been formed,
and a serious attempt will be made to

escape the pitfalls and hidden dangers
that have attended the launching of
the other great fruit industries of the
Northwest. mo slump" sums up the
ambition of these growers and Profess
sor Lewis for the progress of this in
dustry.
The association expects to accom-
plish this result largely by establishing
rigid standards of products which all
growers must adhere to in order to
obtain the other advantages of the
association. Every box of berries,
every can, every package of dried fruit
and every bottle of juice that goes out
of the state is to be of first quality.
The fine preserving qualities makes
this ambitious program a little easier
of accomplishment with the loganberry

than with any other berry, so that
growers fully expect to see the policy
strictly enforced. All inferior goods
will be kept at home and used on the
farm or else made into suitable by
products.
Another means Of managing the
rapidly growing industry is a bureau
Of statistics. The acreage and produc-
tion of each years crop will be ascer-
tanned as nearly as may be, and pro-
vision made for marketing just what
is grown. Extensive advertising will
be carried on in order to widen the
market and cooperate with the agen-
les that handle the crops.
While the area Of growing logan
berries on an extensive commercial
scale has been somewhat limited TO
certain districts Of the state, and
doubtless always will be, these areas
are extending. Experiments are
being carried on in several new dis
tricts, some Of which, Il is hoped, will
show the necessary conditions for a
large and profitable industry.
