Armstrong) The time has come when some of the apple growers of Howl Kiver valley need to strengthen their ideals of grading, increase their vigilance and use added precautions in producing clean fruit if the apples of this section are to maintain their high place in the markets of the world. Many reports come from California by those who visited there last winter that there were many examples of not only diseased fruit but of many apples which were actually far under the grade at which they were sold, and this same condition is in the eastern markets. This condition is of course deplorable and cannot continue without a tremendous loss to the valley in rep utation, and the reputation of our ap ples is dollars and cents to the growers here. Moreover the loss is not con fined to the growers who are willing to sacrifice their grade in order to get a few more boxes in the warehouse or who are unwilling to use the proper spraying precautions to insure a sound and longkeeping apple, but is equally shared by the growers who Omscien tiously pack and insure their fruit against rot in storage by anthraenose and other diseases theirs, also after they have gone to the expense of spraying and careful grading. The selling agencies generally are trying to do theirs and the growers must keep up their end. There were several factors contrib uting to the poor keeping quality of the apples last winter but chief among them was that of the anthraenose. This must be eliminated but to be en tirely successful the cankers in the trees must be cither killed or cut out and burned. This can not be done in a season or in two seasons for the old cankers give spor-.'s for three success ive falls. The spring Bordeaux or the Bordeaux-oil spray may be successful in keeping the trees clean and so grad ually kill out tne disease as no new cankers can start. Of this we will know more next spring from the tests of the Experiment Station and from growers but in the mean time the fruit and the trees must be kept clean this summer and fall. If the spray is de layed until after harvest bad weather may prevent getting on the spray at all and early rainB may cause much of the fruit to be again infected. There fore to insure a clean good keeping crop of apples, summer Bordeaux should be put on all orchards which are seriously inrecteti. this should tie followed by an after harvest spray also for the best results on the trees, but is quite effective in preventing in fectional one. Now what is a serioulsy infected orchard? Of coures any infection is serious as it persists for so long. However, if there are but a half dozen or less trees infected to a slight degree the fruit can be picked early and spray applied at once, to the tiees surround ing, or a better way still is to care fully go ever these trees and cut out all cankers and hum the infected bark at once. Where there is much more than this amount, if not cut out, all infected trees including several rows around them should have the summer Bordeaux. It should be remembered also that though you do not have the disease in your orchard, if your neigh bor has cankers in trees adjoining you that you will have infected fruit un less you spray at least several rows along the infected orchard. If the disease is general in your orchard or in the neighborhood by all means all of the orchard should get the spray. Many last year were disappointed with the summer Bordeaux as much of the red spot of the NewtownB particu larly seemed to be due to the spray. It has been proved that this spotting only comes when there is a great ex cess of rain and as such a season does not come one year out of ten growers can afford to take the risk for the ben- eni nniaineu. in some urcnaroa mucn red spotting occurred with the rain though no Bordeaux was applied. In all classes growers should get the fruit olF the trees as soon as it is ripe hs the alternate periods of dews, ruins and hot t un tend to produce this condition. Many of the best growers in the val ley.are planning to use this spray this year. H. F. Davidson, of the Hood River Fruit Co., who has opportunity to watch lioth the producing and the selling end of the apple industry, states that this spray will ba applied to all of their orchards this vear. They have found that it protects the tree and also that the apples hold up much better in the lute Eeason, and that the possible loss la not to be com pared with the great gain in freedom from rot in the apple and in keeping qualities. It is felt that growers had better take a little.chance with the red spot and color 8otting than take the certain loss of many apples if any rain comes before they are picked. These same atatements are made by promi nent members of the Apple Growera Association. This spray can either be Applied in the next or in the August spray. If put on in the next arsenate of lead spray, the trees will not be so heavy with fruit and a better job can be done on the tree. It in alao probable that in 1 case of rain in excessive amounts the damage would be leas. It also lias the advantage that the spots of the spray will be distributed more by the growth NASH Passenger Car Prices Reduced From $150 to $200 NEW PRICES Nash Si 5 7 7 Passenger Touring $1835 1990 Sedan 3045 4 2 4 Passenger Coupe " Roadster u Sport $2730 1815 1990 Nash Four 5 Passenger Touring $1440 2 " Roadster 1420 3 Passenger Coupe 5 f Sedan $1995 2215 Above Prices are F.

Brush Fire Causes Alarm The fire alarm Saturday afternoon called the Volunteer Fire Department to a brush and grass blaze at the west city limits 'above the O.-W. It. & N. tracks. No residences were endan gered, and the fire was allowed to burn itself out. The city was crowded with shoppers, and as the burning grass and brush sent up a great volume of smoke, the alarm created general excitement. Cascade avenue was crowded with mo torists and pedestrians hurrying to the fire. Laundry Workers on Outing MARKETING TALKS Talk No. 2 Distribution of the Box Apple Necessity is the Mother of invention. Distribution is the Mother of apple values. War conditions closed the export markets. America was compelled to eat its own apples. It was a groundhog cane eating. That meant more peo ple had to eat them. We had to reach more people. We had to sell in inure markets. We cun't grow apples and eat 'em ourselves and stay in business. That's certain. The war forced ui to Distribute. Before U14 we barely reached four hundred markets. In 1919 the crop was distributed in twenty-five hand fed markets. Why the change? Necessity! Our distribution in 1912 was two hundred and lifty carloads per average market used. In 1919 it was one hundred and thirty odd, with a crop three times the aife of 1914's. Some improvement but not enough. We must aell in not less than 5(KM) markets annually to keep off the price toboggan. Only one way to doit. BIGGER DISTRIBUTION. Nothing else but the widest possible distribution will make apple values healthy and permanent. Our BAK-NONE Brands will be as widely distributed as necessity demands and common MOM in marketing methods can accomplish. MALBOEUF-KIMBALL COMPANY W. A.
