ORGANIZING TO SAVE
BIG FRUIT CROPS
In No Other Way Can Distribution
Reconcile Supply and Demand.

1T is only by organization of fruit
growers and cooperative transporta-
tion that the successful distribution
of horticultural products of the West
can be secured" said E. l.. Goodsell,
the transportation and marketing ex-
pert of New York selling associa-
tion. "In no other known way can
the supply be regulated to the de-
mand and periods of surplus and def
icit be avoided"
Mr.. Goodsell, Arthur NJ. Geary and
Professor c. l. Lewis, discussed the
question of satisfactory marketing
before students of Oregon Agricultur-
al College recently. Professor Lewis
said that while the production prob
lem is present with the Oregon grow
ers it is not acute, but that the ques-
tlon of transportation and markets
requires serious and immediate con-
sideration. He introduced Mr.. Good
sell as one of the best informed men
OF the country on these subjects and
told of his mission to confer with
growers of this country and with the
governors of the four states, Oregon,
Washington, Idaho and California, on
these subjects
Mr.. GOodsell declared that market
ing conditions of this state are but
repetition of those of other fruit
districts. A few years ago California
growers were selling their oranges
through 461 selling agencies. Failure
stared them in the face and they
sought a remedy in organization
They now have probably the best or
ganized fruit industry of the world,
the California Fruit Exchange. Nor
thern California is also well organ
lied, and last year sold 100000
packs of special fruits and 1900, 900
packs of deciduous fruits in the New
York market alone, which was about
'25 percent of the entire fruit crop
of the district. Averages of results
for any five-year period show that the
industry has been very prosperous.
The chaotic conditions of the Porto
Rico market for bananas ""
edied few years ago b.
cation of growers VIII -atly
extended production -. increased
profits. Last fall 100000 fruit
packs were sold in New York.
The Florida crackers" by coming
together have increased their bust
ness and profits enormously. They
marketed last year 100000 packs
in New York alone.
The United Fruit Company in
creased business 10 percent and
made it profitable by organization.
Last year it sold 100000 punches
of bananas by auction in New York.
New York state growers organized
and last year sold their fruit by auc-
tion in orchard lots. Apples brought
$2.70 to $9.40 a barrell as against
$3.50 to $1.75 per barrell by unor-
ganized methods. By the same pro-
cess Virginia got like better prices.
According to Mr.. Goodsell, organi-
zation will be the exact difference be-
tween success and failure in the Ore
gon fruit industry.

REGARDING POLISH WHEAT

Washington, D. c., March IL
The Z. S. Department of Agriculture
recently has been informed that Pol.
ish wheat is being offered for sale in
Montana at the exhorbitant price OF
$1.00 per pound Polish wheat is q
variety more closely related to the
durum wheats than to the common
wheats. The head is 3 to 6 inches
long and one-half to three-quarters
of an inch wide, usually flexible in
stead of stiff. The chaff is very long
and thin and papery. The kernels are
larger than those of durum wheat
and about twice as long as those of
ordinary varieties of common wheat
Like those of durum wheat, the ker-
nels are flinty and of an amber col
or.
A few years ago this wheat was
exploited in Idaho under the mis-
leading name Corn Wheat" 1t has
also been exploited at different times
as Jerusalem rye" "Giant Rye"
etc.
This wheat is grown to a slight ex-
tent in southeastern Europe, but nev-
er has been grown commercially in
the United States. 1t is carried in
stock and sold as novelty by most
seedsmen. 1t has been tested by
many experiment stations and has
never been found to yield as we'll as
good varieties of common and durum
wheat. From our present knowledge
it is not recommended for growing
anywhere in the United States.
Those offering the seed claim that
it does very we'll on dry land and also
under irrigation if not watered too
much. They state that Polish farm
ers in Montana claim that this wheat
yields from IS to $50 bushels per
acre and makes the very best of -four
and hog feed.
These statements are directly con-
trary to the experience of the Depart
ment of Agriculture and several State
experiment stations. They are also
contrary to the experience of many
farmers who have written to the De-
partment at one time or another.
The accumulated evidence regard
ing this wheat does not indicate that
it has any value that will in any way
justify the charge of $100 pound
for the seed, and farmers are ad-
vised not to be mislead by the glow
ing statements regarding yields and
value which have been made concern
ing this variety.

STOPPING THE LEAKS
IN THE HOG BUSINESS

Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
Wallis, Mar. 13.-With the present
high price of grain it is necessary to
make the hog business pay that ev-
erything possible be done to stop the
wastes. This is one of the seasons
of the year when much can be done
to stop many of the losses.
The season is close at hand when
the young pigs will be coming along
and everything should be done to
save as many of them as possible.
This can be helped greatly by proper
care of the brood sow just before and
during farrowing time. About two
weeks before the sow is due to farrow
she should be put in a pen that is
light and airy and her feed gradually
changed to what she is to be fed at
narrowing time. One should be very
careful in changing the feed at this
time as it is often very easy to throw
a sow off feed and cause serious trou-
BILE. Constipation is the bane of hog
raisers and should be carefully
guarded against at this one time in
particular, for should a SOW become
constipated at this time there is very
apt to be loss of pigs.
After farrowing the SOW should not
be fed for about "a hours unless she
shows signs of uneasiness. Ordinar-
lily she will not care for a great deal.
Plenty of fresh water should be given
her at all times but real cold icy wa
ter should never be given sow that
has just farrowed. The chill should
be removed. A thin slop of shorts
and milk is one of the very best feeds
just after narrowing.
Another method of stopping the
leaks is to have good light airy pen
which the sunshine reaches a good
part of the day. 1t should be provided
with a good guard rail so that the
sow will not be able to get the pigs
between herself and the wall and
mash them. This rail can be made
from most any kind of board or
pole so long as it acts as protection
for the pigs. 1t should be six to
eight inches from the wall and a
like distance from the floor. Up to
farrowing time it costs no more to
keep a SOW that farrows larger lit
ter than 1t does one that only farrows
? a. r7a~-
W has done her part of
producing large healthy litter the
one in charge should do everything
possible to help her save them. If the
SOW is heavy and awkward it is often
advisable to keep the pigs away from
the sow and return them every two
hours to suckle for a few days until
they are strong enough to keep out
of the dams way.
Another method of stopping some
of the leaks is to have some early
pasture to turn on so as to cut
down the amount of high priced grain
that has to be fed during the winter
Organizing community shipping
associations and shipping their own
hogs to market is another method of
stopping the leaks. In most localit-
les the expense of shipping and SELL
ing is less than tha huvprS' nrofts
Otherwise there would not be so
many buyers in the business as there
are. This is profit that the farm
ers are entitled to and is within easy
reach of them if they so desire.
By watching the businessc arefully
and stopping the small leaks, what
would otherwise be a loss can be very
often turned to profit.

A Bit Late.

city of Preston went to live with a
workmate Of his, somewhat older
man. On going to bed the first night
the young man noticed the absence of
blinds on the windows.
Hast no blinds for the windows,
Bill?"
mo, never trouble about blinds, "
replied Bill; "but If tn art so partic-
ular about it I'll blacklead tn win
dows for thee"
"All rect"
So they blackleaded the windows.
During the night the young man
awoke, and, finding the room in dark
ness, he went to sleep again.
This continued in turns until the
elderly man said:
II say, Jack, get up and make q
leet; I'm sure we're going to be late
for t. work"
To their amazement they found it
was 1880 a. m.
"Now we've done it; we're late.
We had better get to tn MILL"
The first person they met was the
manager.
Halo, where have you two been?"

Packers Fined for
Weighing Paper
Ham Wrappings

Yonkers, N. Y, Aug. 23.-A fine of
$l00, imposed today on Swift & Co.,
meat packers, by City Court Judge
Joseph H, Beall, carried with it a de-
cision which will cost the meat pack
ers 100000 a year if approved by
the higher courts, according to their
attorneys.
Judge Beall found the packers
guilty of having violated the law by
charging for meat containers at the
same rate as for the meat they con-
tanned. 1t was charged that the COM
pany had sold ham weighing eleven
pounds six ounces in a container
weighing six ounces and charged for
eleven pounds and twelve ounces OF
meat.
The company's defense was that
the hams are not classed as ordinary
meats and that the buyer knows he
is paying meat prices for paper con-
tainers.

Railroad Estimates of Cost
fthe Eight Hour Day Scale

Elisha Lee, chairman of the man.
ayers committee, made this state
ment:
There seems to be some question
of the accuracy of the estimates made
by the railways of what it would cost
to grant the demands of the train en-
ployes, and | make this statement
to clarity the public mind on this
phase of the matter.
There has been no change in our
original estimate that to grant the de-
mands would add $l00,0000N year
to operating expenses. On the con-
trary, subsequent investigations con-
firmed the substantial accuracy OF
that estimate.
Commissions may have arisen from
the fact that we have estimated that it
would cost more than $S0,000,000 a
year to make the concessions which
President Wilson has proposed that
we make. The difference between
the estimates is due, Of course, to the
fact that the president has proposed
that we Immediately grant only part
OF the demands and that consideration
of the rest Of them be postponed"
