DAVIDSON MAKES
RECORD BERRY SALE

Through w. II. White, representing
the North Dakota fruit merchants, H.
+. Davidson, who is handling the straw.
berry sales of the Hood River Apple
Growers Association and the White
Salmon Fruit Growers Association
jointly this year, Saturday morning
sold 60 carloads of Clark Seedlings to
c. H. Robinson Il Co.. of Grand Forks,
N. D.
81 only reserved enough fruit 10 fll
existing ORDERS" says Mr.. Davidson,
''and we began to fill the big order
Monday. 1t will take practically the
entire remainder of the crops of the
two districts to supply the 60 carloads
of fruit. "
So far as is known by local fruit
men, this is record sale Of strawber-
ries in the history Of fruit marketing.
On former years some of the big oper.
ators have taken as many as 40 car
loads. 1t is record deal, when IL is
considered that the fruit is sold I. o.
b., Hood River, at little more than
81 400 per car. The total returns will
reach approximately Ss5, 000 The news
of the big sale has been especially
gratifying to the growers of the Upper
Valley. whose fruit is just now begin
ming to ripen.
The cool and rainy weather of May
was a blessing in disguise for local
growers. The fruit rpened slowly and
some of the shipments on account of
having been routed out while wet,
reached their destination in a very
poor condition. On account of some of
the poor returns of the early ship
ments, due to the condition Of the fruit
istelf, and the competition of districts
producing large quantities of earlier
fruit, the local growers have been de-
pressed. However, the price, despite
the increase In deliveries, has been
constantly increased, now ranging
around So per crate.
This price," says MIR. Davidson.
means that we are now receiving as
much for the fruit as on former years,
when we we're getting So per crate,
when the crates contained "a short
quart boxes. The filters now contain
"a full pints $3.50 used to be consid-
cred top price for strawberries.
''In all my 20 years Of experience in
handling Strawberries. continued Mr..

ilty of the local berries better, since
the rains of this spring have ceased.
They are arriving on the markets in
excellent condition, and while the price
is extraordinary, we figure that the
dealers will make good profit. Since
the rains stopped the berries, almost
without exception, are being settled
for at invoice prices"
Up to and including the fruit sent
out Saturday evening. the local associ-
alton has shipped 81 carloads of fruit.
Thrty-five cars have been shipped by
the White Salmon growers.
The local office is a scene Of activity
until far into the night. For the past
10 days Mr.. Davidson has been receiv-
ing from rs to 100 kilograms daily
from all parts of the country. His
close touch with all markets has en-
abled him to maintain rising market
with ar. increasing production.

Perseverance Wins out.

SCRANTON, Pa, June 25.-Aftef
living five years in a shack on the
mountainside and continually pros
pecting for hidden coal measures,
which he believed lay underneath that
portion Of the valley, but which eK-
pert mining men claimed did not, the
patience of James H. Rollins, Of this
city. has been rewarded. He has
found two veins of coal extending be-
Meath a 4O-acre tract. for which he
has secured the mineral rights.
ROLES has passed his life around
the mines and at the same time has
been somewhat of a student on geo
logical conditions. He became con-
yinced that there was coal under the
West Mountain, near Olyphant above
where the coal company engineers de-
clsred that the outcrop occurred. He
was laughed at, but persisted in his
belief and, securing permission, he
prospected the mountainside.
Discovering traces Of coal in spots
he drilled several bore holes and To-
Gated one five-foot and one three
foot veing 100 feet beneath the sur
face.
Mr.. ROLES estimates that there are
nearly 100000 tons Of coal in tn,
tract and will at once take steps tC
commence mining operations.

BAN ON "BONEHEAD" HITS.
Bill in Albany Legislature Would

New York. Feb. 9-Coney Island will
have to struggle along this summer with
''redhOts'' and scenic railways and other
athletic diversions without the aid Of
that soothing exercise of hitting with
baseball the head OF an Ethiopian" as
it prOtrudes from hole in a canvas
sheet. This is the depressing news which
arrived today from Albany. where
fussy legislature is interfering with the
cheap and simple pleasures of the poor.
The bill If passed as introduced by
Senator Gilchrist and Assemblyman Null
ligan, prohibits. on pain of fines ranging
from 800 to 800 the earning of an honest
though hazardous living by exposing the
skull to the aim Of snipers at COney
Island or various county fairs Many
persons who have no more profitable use
for their heads will join the army OF the
unemployed and the millions which
thrOng to COney Island each week will
have to content their violent natures by
throwing baseballs at china sets instead
OF at the African brother"
Not only those "artful dodgers who
pTotrude their heads through holes in a
canvas sheet. but the brain workers who
poise on 4 trapeze over a tank OF water
into which they fall if smitten by a sure
throw, are forbidden to follow their life
calling in this State by the terms of the
bill
Whether this bill was introduced at the
request of the WOrkingmens Compensa-
tiOn Commission TO reduce the risks in
this profession, or whether the lcEisla-
turc feared that the enterprisinG COncy
Island shOwmen would dress their dodg-
crs up as the various contenders in the
European war thus bringing on violent
complications. Is not revealed.
