CANAL mil REDUCE
DRIED FRUIT RATE
HUNTERS AID ASKED
TO PREVENT FIRES
(From Fruit and Produce Distributor)
Within two days after the first load
ed steamer entered the Panama canal
(the Santa Clara, of the Atlantic &
Pacific Steamship Company), word was
received by the Fruit Growera Trana
portation League of the first great-
benefits which the fruit industry is to
receive through the ranal'a operation.
tor the first time in Panama canal nis-
torv definite information la now given
to the growera of the northwest, and
hile it only covers dried fruits and
canned gooda, the saving in freight
rates is so tremendous as to point the
way to the equally great advantages
that' all branchea in fruit growing are
certain to get.
The reductions in dried fruit rates
are startling. As compared witn tne
present rate of 100 centa per hundred
weight from Portland and Seattle to
New York City, the direct water rate
through Panama will be 37 J cents, and
ith dock charges, lighterage ana
marine Insurance, the total rate ue
tween the Dorts will not exceed 40
cents Der 100 pounds. Adding the lo
cal rates to Portland, the dried fruit
shippers will have a through rate from
Willamette valley shipping poinia to
New York City and other eastern sea
porta ranging from 4H cents to 63 cents.
This will cover more than 85 per cent
of the Oregon dried fruit territory.
while Clarke county, Washington, will
have from Vancouver the low record
rate of 45 cents by water as compared
with one dollar by rail. Even the
L'mpqua valley points lioO miles in the
interior from Portland, will be able to
save 3 and upwards per ton. Aa a
whole the dried fruit growers will save
not less than 1160 on every car han
dled by water. Dried fruit shippers
are astounded at the possibilities
which the water movement opens up.
Under the influence of equally low
rates, the canning and by-product in
dustries will immediately commence
to grow into enormous proportions.
For years the crying need of the grow
er has been for relief in some way as
wold enable him to utilize his small
fruits and by-prouuets on a basis that
assure profit, and the Panama
more than fulfills his fondest
The same steamer rate of 37J
per 100 pounds will apply on
goods, and the whole of the

county and the Columbia valley, will

steamboat competition on the Columbia
and Willamette rivers, the total saving
will run close to $200 on every car
shipped.
C. A. Malbneuf, manager of the
Fruit Growers Transportation League,
who has been the pioneer and incessant
worker for Panama canal service and
rates, modestly states that this is only
the beginning of new things. He says:
"1 have always been a profound be
liever in Panama because in commer
cialized terms it means 'propserity,
Rates on apples, potatoes, soft fruits
and all other produce will feel an equal
effect in rate reduction, but to my
mind the rates will even go lower than
the first ones we have been instru
mental in getting. We are assured
that the apple rates will be announced
to us in a very short time, and will be
so low as to startle every grower
throughout the northwest. The figures
already named on canned goods and
dried fuits are simply an index of
what we may expect. What we need
we shall get. Service to New York
this season is a certainty, barring un
foreseen accidents to the canal, and
there will be enough Bteamers fitted
with refrigeration to carry an immense
quantity of our apples to the east by
water. W. R. Grace & Company, op
erating the Atlantic & Pacific line,
have named the rates given and their
fleet of modern vessels is ready or ser
vice. Service to Europe, the Orient,
Kgypt, South American markets, Aus
tralia, and many other countries is al
most equally certain this year. The
Transportation League ia looking after
all these matters, and it is now up to
the salesman to get busy."
Because of the fact that many forest
fires art set through the carelessness
of hunters, campers, and others who
go Into the wooes for recreation, the
forest service has taken up with manu
facturers of firearms and ammunition
the question of a co-operative arrange
ment through which purchasers and
users of guns and cartridges shall be
reminded of the fire danger.
It has been pointed out that in the
lumber regions of the northwest, for
example, manufacturers and other bus
iness men have been having printed or
stamped on their stationery and pay
checks various crisp, catchy state
ments about the loss which the public
suffers through the decreased demand
for labor and decreased money in circu
lation if timber, which ia the source of
many of the northwest's industries, is
burned ud.
It has also been pointed out that in
the east particularly many forest fires
are started by the carelessness of hunt
ers, who drop burning matches, cigar
or cigaret stumps, or pipe coals in the
woods, or perhaps build a fire which is
left burning when the hunter goes nn.
Forest fires, of course, greatly injure
the interests of sportsmen by robbing
the birds or their proper cover. ley
also impair the food supply of both
birds and biz game, through the de
struction of the undergrowth which
furnishes browse, berries and other
food.
J The eastern woods are 'exposed to the
danger from fires principally in the
spring and fall, when moat of the trees
are bare and the leaves on the ground
are dry. The spring fires, many of
which are due to trout fishermen, may
destroy the eggs of game birds and
even the young birds themselves,
Since trout fishermen are likely to
hunt in the fall, the same individual, if
careless, may be a source of danger at
both seasons.
It is suggested that the manufactur
era of arms and ammunition ought to
be sufficiently interested in the matter
of perpetuation of game to be willing
to .help in the campaign against forest
fires. This help may come through the
printing of some brief fire warning on
cartridge boxes or some slip to go with
any hunting or camping supplies which
are furnished. Several manufacturers
have already expressed their interest
in the mattered their willingness to
help.
PRUNING CUMBERS
FOR NEXT SEASON
CANADA'S GREAT
AUTOMOBILE ROAD
(From Christian Science Monitor)
There is projected and under way,
with promise of completion within the
next two or three years, a highway
across the Dominion of Canada. At a
very considerable distance to the north
a distance, however, not much great
er than that which separated the first
Pacific railways of the two nations a
few years ago it will parallel the Lin
coln memorial highway in the United
States. Like its neighbor to the south
of the line, it will be about 3000 miles
in length, and it will offer to the tour
ist the same variety of scenery be
tween the Atlantic and Pacific coasts.
Yet there will be enough difference be
tween Quebec and Ontario and New
Kngland and the Allegheny slope, be
tween the middle and trans-Missouri
west and the prairio provinces, between
the Selkirks and the Rocky mountains
and Sierra Nevadas, U.'.ween the val
leys of the Sacramento and the upper
Columbia, to make the round trip over
the two routes well worth while.
Fifty years ago serious doubt existed
in the thoughts of well informed peo
ple with regard to the advisability of
building a railroad from the Missouri
river to San Francisco. Serious doubt
exists today as to the advisability of
constructing transcontinental high
ways. Roughly speaking, there are
now a dozen railroads connecting the
older states and provinces with the
Pacific ;it is not unreasonable to expect
that within another half century there
will be as many automobile highways
across the same territory.
There is no longer an unbroken ex
panse of desert; the plains, prairies
and mountain sides are peopled. Vil
lages, towns and cities punctuate the
entire stretch from the Red river and
the Missouri river to the western sea.
Within a few years, in all probability,
the initial highways will be as inade
quate to the proper handling of the
traffic that will crowd upon them as
would be the initial Pacific railays to
day if they stood alone.
(From U. S. Dept. of Ag. Bulldtin.)J
After the blooming season of climb
ine rosea is over in June the depart
ment's landscape gardener advises that
shoots should be pruned, so as to throw
the growth ol the plant into tne new
wood that bore no flowers this year, for
this is the part of the plant that will
bear next year. When a trellis is low
(six or eight feet high), it is a good
plan to cut off the shoots that have
borne flowers this year clear to the
ground. Climbing roses are a valuable
aid in making an attractirve home and
will renav careful treatment.
Most people in following this advice
may feel that they are ruining their
bnshes to cut them back so severely
but the young shoots that have started
about the roots will surprise them by
snringmg up with wonderful rapidity
Each bush will probably put forth sev
eral new shoots that will grow as long
as those cut, or one shoot will grow
much longer. In either case the tret
la will soon be covered again. One
shoot in a Washington garden last year
grew 20 feet after the bush had been
cut down in this manner.
In the case of a high trellis a differ
ent method must be .followed. The
renewal of wood must begin from
point higher up instead of from the
root, as the growth of a bush is not
enough to replace all its top on a high
trellis if required to grow so far. Only
so much of the old wood should be re
moved after the flowers have bloomed
as will enable the new shoots from the
end of the remaining portion of the
stalk to replace the old growth. About
four feet is a safe measure of the
amount that may be taken off.
Those who have grown climbing roses
aa a screen on their porches, in order
to insure a hne bloom the coming year.
will do well to follow the advice as
given for the higher trellis. In other
words, about four feet of the old stalk
that have bloomed should be cut off
immediately after the blossoms are
withered. The foliage will recover
within a very short period and continue
to screen the porch, and next year an
abundant crop of blossoms win be aa
sured.

a conference of ministers in Eugene in
connection with the University of Ore
gon summer school work, and on Mon

Outside Seats Suggested for Station
During the warm months of each
year the suggestion is often heard
among people waiting to take some
train that the O.-W. R. & N. Co. would
perform a work that would be appreci
ated if a row or two of seats were
placed along the concrete platform in
front of the station. The north side
of the building is well protected and
always in the shade. Comfortable out
side seats would be a delight to the
patrons of the road.

An Inferior Farm Wagon Is A
Bad Investment
No other implement on the farm is used under such
trying conditions as a wagon. Extremes of heat and
cold, wet and dry, dust and mud, sand and rock, are the
conditions under which it must work.
The JOHN DEERE IRON CLAD WAGON is built
to meet these conditions. It is built the JOHN DEERE
WAY-to give satisfaction. It is offered as the best of
its class.
The longer you use the JOHN DEERE WAGON
the better you will like it. It will last longer, run lighter
and give more all around satisfaction than any wagon
you can buy at the price.
The running gears are the most important part of a
wagon. They must stand the strain of heavy loads,
rough roads and the wear and tear that is incident to the
use of a wagon.
Air-seasoned hickory and white oak are used in the
running gears. Axles, eveners, singletrees and neck
yokes are hickory. The wheels, bolsters and hounds
are selected white oak.
We can furnish any specifications you wish. Wide
or narrow track, any height of wheel, any width of
tire, any height of bolster stakes.
We also carry in stock the Studebaker wagon, the
Mandt and the DAVENPORT ROLLER BEARING,
all steel wagon.
A call to look at our wagons will be appreciated.
