FURNITURE FACTORY
is URGED FOR salem
Conditions Favorable For De.
!. velopment OF Industry
Is Belief.

If the city of Salem is to work out its
destiny as one of the chief manufactur-
ing centers of Oregon, the next logical
addition to its industries will be a iiurni-
ture and implement factory.
At a recent meeting of Oregon manu-
faeturers in Portland the fact was
brought out that in spite of their largo
volume of business the Portland furni
ture makers cannot keep pace with the
demand for their goods, and the ques-
tion of encouraging outside capital to
locate in the valley was discussed. Thus
far the manufacturers have been de-
pending upon nearby markets, large
proportion of their goods being sold
locally; but it was pointed out that
with a proper system of extension their
products could be distributed over
largo part of the inter-mountain terri
tory.
There is nothing lacking to make Sa-
lem the home of some such plant, unless
it be the absence of water power, and
that is a negligible factor as compared
with the question of labor and plenti-
full supply of proper timber. Salem is
SO located that vast lumber resource
is made available through tributary
streams-lumber suitable for wide
scope of manufacturing purposes. While
there is no hard wood in this territory
suitable for the finer grade of furni-
ture, oak and other hard woods can be
shipped in by rail or by water at
mere fraction of the cost of the same
amount of timber made up in furniture.
The greater proportion of the turni-
ture sold in Salem is made up in the
west, but there is vast quantity of
goods shipped from the east which could
be as economically made up in this city.
A prominent local dealer states that he
has not had a call from furniture
salesman for months. The wholesalers
are unable to keep up with tho demands
of the territory. Sooner or later capital
will look over western Oregon with a
view to securing a favorable site for
manufacturing plants of this kind, and
Salem should be found ina receptive at
titude.

Federal Duck

provisions Of the state law, with the ex.
ception of the opening and closing dates

GOOD APPLE PRICES

Local Expert.

Apple growers in Oregon os well as
throughout the northwest may feel as
surc4 that, taking everything into con
si,icration, good prices are assured FOR

TEis is the opinion of the apple stu

after conference with the apple grow

or correspondence with men who attend
ed the national apple growers sonven-

There is diversity of opinion be-

ing public.
Buyers in the cast are also more
cautious than usual due to the fact
they lost considerable on the soft fruits,
peaches, fresh prunes and plums. The
fact that the apple market opened the
highest III wears had induced many buy
ors to adopt hand totmouth policy in
buying.
"'This tendency towards waiting is
changing to some extent due to the 1act
that there will be shortage of refri,-
orator cars. Buyers realizing this are
beginning. to take care of their require
ments by carly shipments.
: "The actual heavy demand for ap-
pies will not develop until after the
middle Of October, Mr.. Paulus said. "lt
is at this time of year that fruits are
delivered in the east and not until de-
livery is there any way of knowing what
the demands will be. The probable in

''But, on the other hand, eastern buy
els recognize the unusually pros rcrous

tically no one not employed and wages
are the highest ever known. The Amer

AS for the export business, this is still
an uncertain factor, due to the ever
changing ocean rates and the low point
of exchange and the governmental re-
in European markets.
Gone factor that NAV have much to
do with the price is the fact that the
of apples in the northwest
have been purchased by eastern buyers
and are now being held. This will have

"But the final test of the situation
is the consumer. The law of supply
and demand is the prime factor in the
