ministrator Ayre, during which all con.
ditions affecting the growing in
dustry Of the northwest were fully CON

tive growers selected to determine the
maximum selling prices to be voluntar-

which the 1918 prune crop will be sold

Food Administrator Newell throughout

California Prunes Higher
"The schedule agreed upon by the
Oregon and Washington growers" said
Mr.. Richmond, care from one-fourth
to three-eights of cent lower, accord
ing to grade, than those adopted by
the California growers. This difference
is due to the fact that the California
prune absorbs much greater quantity
of moisture in the process of packing
than does the prune Of Northwest sec.
tions, this moisture content adding sub
stantialy to the weight of the prunes af-
ter they reach the packer and before
they are passed on to the consumer. AS
the packer sells the prune by weight
ii will he seer that the Oregon and
Washington packers who handle prunes
that do not absorb so much moisture
would be at a disadvantage if they had
to pay as high a figure for their fruit
as does the California packer. For this
reason the lower price was adopted in
the northwest. Oregon and Washington

problem.
As outlined today, the probabilities
are that the allied representatives will

struggling Russians fighting to shake
off bolshevik-German rule.
Some authorities believed the Unit

Vladivostok and thus assist all loyal
Russian factions to rally to their stand

SThe Czecho-S'ovaks are making won

This was accomplished by a pitched
