Wittenberg-Kng
Meeting Attended
by ZOO. Growers

Farmers are evidently interested in
the propositions of the Wittenberg-
King company for long time contracts
as more than two hundred growers at
tended the meeting this afternoon at
the Salem Fruit Union headquarters to
hear the address of Stanley Armstrong
and to discuss contracts.
The Wittenberg King company, who
will erect a large evaporating plant,
will require large acreage of all kinds
of vegetables and the meeting this
afternoon was in part to secure CON
tracts for this acreage. Mr.. Armstrong
told of the workings of the factory and
also gave the contract prices as fol-
lows, the prices being quoted by the
ton: cabbage, $40; spinach, $25; car
rots, So; celery, $50; onions, $40; pota-
toes, $l7, beans, $40; rutabaga, So.
Long time contracts are preferred, as
by this means both the growers and the
factory will have basis on which to
figure Five year contracts will be
taken, but Mr.. Armstrong said his fac
tory preferred ten years.
Inc IleeIlHg was an enInuSlaSllc one
in every way, as by means of these con
tracts, the grower is assured of price
for every pound he grows. While no
contracts were presented today for sig
nature, verbal agreements were made
and within few days, the Witten-
berg-King company hope to have the
acreage desired contracted for. They
now have an evaporating plant in The
Dalles.

Exchange Plant Day"
Suggested for Salem

The American City q magazine de
voted to the municipality and its many
needs, carries a story in its last issue
regarding what is termed Exchange
Plant Day." which is day set aside
by the community for a general ex-
change of plants 1t is worked this
way; Those who have large number
Of plant clippings or slips Of rare
varieties that otherwise would be
thrown away, take these slips to cen,
tral designated place; here the slips
from various gardens arc assorted, and
labelled, and those who have no gardens
but who wish TO start garden can
come to this place and get slips for
nothing. Those who bring slips can
secure slips from others of flowers they
wish to get. In this way all unused
slips are used profitably and the whole
city benefits. No charge is made for
the slips. In this eastern city about
10000 slips changed hands and were
used that otherwise would have bcen
wasted.
1t is suggested BY interested people
OF this city that the Salem Floral Club
stand sponsor for an Exchange Plant
Day in Salon.

A public mass meeting will be called
within a short time to endorse the ac-
tion of the city council in regard to the
bridge to be built across the willamette.
1t seems that the war department has
certain regulations about navigable
streams and also bridges and one is that
not only city council but mass meet
ing OF citizens must agree that the
building Of the bridge will not interfere
with the city's rights on the river front
or the building Of docks. Hence as a
matter Of form it is probable that such

Stock Prices to Remain. Hluh

The announcement by Food Adj
ministrator Hoover that cattle and
hog prices will not be reduced BY
order of the board is of decided in
terest to the farmers of the north
west. Mr.. Hoover says in his brief
statement that the Government re-
cognizes the Importance of increas-
ing the production of meats of all
kinds, and that this can be brought
about only by conditions which will
make the raising of meat animals
profitable to the producer. There
will be not attempt OH the part of
the Government to reduce the
prices of meat animals, and pro-
ducers may proceed to secure in
the knowledge that their efforts
will be rewarded by good prices for
some time in the future. The
one line in which results can most
quickly be reached is in the produc
ton of hogs, and it is to the in
terest Of the whole state that the
fullest possible attention be given
now to his feaure.
