APPLE CROP LARGER
THAN ANTICIPATED
Arrival OF Early Varieties On
Market Indicate Condition
To Be Good.

The influx of the earlier varieties of
apples into the Salem market gives evil
dence of much larger crop than was
anticipated, and it is further noted that
! the fruit does not show the effects of
/ the drouth as much as some other fruits.
The local consumption of apples of all
grades will be larger this season than
ever before, although the market for
J barrelled cider is only fracticn of
what it was before the days of prohibi-
tion. In questioning local manufacture
ers it was learned that one handicap on
the cider business at present is in the
fact that the acids used in preventing
the formulation of cider have become
lycry scarce aad high during the war,
and this adds materially to the cost of
manufacture. However, thousands of
tons of apples, from the windfall to the
higher grade of culls, will be demanded
by the Salem plants during the next few
weeks. The Commercial Cider plant on
North Commercial street, is already in
operation, while the Stolz Vinegar
Works will begin its annual grind about
the first of September. 1t has been
demonstrated by the management that
the highest grade of vinegar cannot be
made from the earlier apples on account
of their scant percentage of sugar. This
plant will consume all the way from
300 to 500 tons of apples il the season,
their output running in the neighbor-
hood Of 100000 gallons of cider and
vinegar.
The class of apples that goes into
! these products brings usually about So
! d ton, and this is practically .'vclvet y
for the grower as they cannot be mar
keted otherwise. The only serious prob
! lem this season is that of transporta-
! tion, as all truck hauling has bcen ad-
vanced from i25 to 80 per cent over for
mer seasons. Ne
The amount used by these plants, how
lever, is only fraction Of the tonnage
that win be taken by the Salem Kings
plant, the Phez people and Kurtz evap-
orator, which will of course demand a
much higher grade of fruit. Between
the local consumption and the shipping
demand there is very bright outlook
for the apple growers this. season. A
canvass Of the situation in the east az
in Europe by experts shows that there
is likely to be high range of prices
for all of the Willamette valley ship
ping stock, although the English mar
ket is badly demoralized by industrial
conditions and the cost of transportation.
| 1t is stated that in some of the big
apple regions of the east the crop will
only run from 25 to 80 per cent of nor
NAL, while the northwest generally has
"a fine crop. 1t has been demonstrated
further that prohibition has given Is
great impetus to the apple industry, and
there is degree of prosperity in the
country that assures the purchase of
high grade apples even at a top price.

YOUR RED CROSS CALLS
ROLL ARMISTICE week
Membership Rather Than Mon.
ey Is Asked to Complete
War Relief.

Red Cross Chapters, branches and
auxiliaries in the Northwestern Div
ision, comprising Alaska, Idaho, Ore
gon and Washington, will participate
in the THIRD RED CROSS ROLL
CALL November to November II,
Armistice Day. The American Red
Cross, the greatest relief organization
in recorded history, the modified
heart-action of the American people"
will engage in no more drives" for
huge sums for war relief, but will
continue it's annual roll-call, which is
simply the occasion on which the
American people express their belief
in the ideals and work of the Red
Cross by enrolling as members. "All
you need is a heart and a dollar"
For five reasons, say the leaders of
the Red Cross, this THIRD RED
CROSS ROLL CALL should enroll
every loyal and public spirited Ameri-
can citizen among the millions of mem
bers of the organization that served
our boys at home and overseas, saved
the morale of France and Italy in our
early days in the war; relieved the
millions of refugees, fed the starving
babies of Europe, saved whole nations
from determination, stood as next
friend to those families in America
whose dear ones were in the service
threw its tremendous resources into
the fight against influenza, dealt with
great national disasters of flood and
fire, and now carries on to do its part
to serve America and to make the
war worth having been won.
These five reasons are:

RED CROSS GIRLS FEED
THOUSANDS OF DOUGHBOYS

Since the armistice, twenty-five
canteens, operated by Red Cross Chap
tiers in Idaho, Oregon, and Washing
ton have dispensed 23,379 gallons Of
coffee, and 1926 dozen sandwiches,
to soldiers, sailors, and marines en-
route. The hospitality of these can
teens was accepted nine hundred thou
sand times, often by men who would
have gone hungry but for the Red
Cross service thus rendered. Figures
show that these men, through the
courtesy of the Red Cross, drank g.
497 gallons of iced drinks; used 6,663
bars of soap, and 37,713 paper towels )
ate 57,491 chocolate bars. 1929
pounds of candy, 14,754 dozen cookies,
74,913 dozen doughnuts, 9,488 dozen
hot rolls; wrote 36,400 post cards
furnished and stamped by the Red
Cross; and to their own discomfort
during a certain period, wore 12,250
influenza masks. All this, to say
nothing of 22,956 full meals,
During this time l847 sick men were
aided by the canteen, seventy-nine OF
them being removed from trains as
too sick to travel, and receiving imme
date hospital attention.
Canteen work is nearly over, but the
Red Cross still has vitality important
work to do. Every membership in the
Third Red Cross Roll Call will be q
vote of confidence in the American
Red Cross.

or Naval hospitals, the American PEG
pie still give cheer, comfort and serV
ice through their Red Cross.
In certain portions of the Old World
the American Red Cross still feeds
and clothes the undernourished and
ragged babies, cares for the aged and
the infirm, and assists the people of
these disease-ridden, famine stricken,
war-ravaged countries to organize
their own resources. Since the sign
ing of the Armistice, this work has
steadily declined, but it is not by any
means fully completed.
2. The Red Cross Is the Disaster Re-
lief Agent of the American People.
The speed and efficiency with which
the Red Cross met emergency needs
at Corpus Christi illustrated the value
of nationwide Red Cross organization.
In case of disaster, whether it be for
est fire in the Northwest or a great
Mississippi Valley flood, the first eff
fective relief will hereafter come from
nearby communities, working through
their Red Cross Chapters.
8. In Case Of Epidemic Local Rcd
Cross Organization Is Indispens-
able.
During the influenza epidemic, Red
Cross action and cooperation saved
three thousand lives, because the Red
Cross was fully organized in every
community in the United States
Against a possible recurrence of in,
fluenza this winter and against dan
tinued universal membership in the
Red Cross is essential.
4. Red Cross Peace Program Calls
For Universal Support and Co
operation.
The American Red Cross is still al
emergency organization. 1t must be
realized that there is such a thing al

under one year Of age die every veal
because of ignorance; thousands o.
mothers die unnecessarily in child

Government Aid in Germany.

In Germany government aid for the
betterTnent of houses for working
people has probably been given more
largely than in any other country.
The federal government built houses
directly to rent to the lower paid
government employees. 1t also estab-
lished a housing fund to make loans
TO building associations for work
mems dwellings and for purchasing
land to be leased on longtime grant
the German empire also contributed
largely to aid housing conditions.
They. too. provided houses for lower
paid state officials and Workmen. au
thorized building loans and building
premiums to state officials and work
men. built houses for rental, made
loans to building associations and
exempted workmens dwellings,, at
least in part. from taxation and other
fees. The municipalities in Germany
also provided houses TO be rented
to municipal workmen, and erected
houses for rental 10 the general work
ing classes. The work of the empire
or federal government in the matter
of housing for rental to its own EN-
ployes has been extensive. Prussia
has been the most active OF the indi-
yidual German states in the promo
tion of better housing. The money
put into the construction of dwellings
for the working classes by the state
and municipal governments in Ger
many in the last two decades has
amounted TO several hundred millions
of dollars

Moves Made in Congrss.

II viii be recalled that bills have
been introduced in Congress to pro-
vide for the Wiping out Of slum areas
in Washington, and the erection of
sanitary dwellings suitable for wage
earners. Hearings were held on these
measures, but nothing was ever done
with them, the only result being the
enactment of a law to do away with
dwellings in alleys No provision
has been made to provide adequate
dwellings, for the inhabitants of the
alleys after they are driven out. An
extension of the time in which these
alley dwellings, may continue to be
used was granted by act OF Congress,
largely on account of the congeSted
conditions which arose here almost
Immediately after the United States
entered the war. Yet Washington
possesses Sums which have been de-
clared as bad or even worse than
those in Industrial centers.
1t has been shown that these hous-
ing schemes in European countries
have improved the health OF large
numbers of people and have resulted
in a great reduction in death rates
in areas covered by these schemes
for clearing away slums. In Liver
pool. where d slum area was wiped
out and displaced tenants were re-
housed upon the same area, Il death
rate ranging from forty to sixty per
thousand has been reduced by more
