Thege trees described are 32 years old. Pruning Urged RegurdliiQ pruning, Mr. Long de- J rimed that this year, of all years when the trees are ready to bear heavily, pruning will bring in cash Talues, Increasing the vigor of the trees and the size of the prunes. He advised that prune growers have other crops on the place since the one-crop farm means utiliza tion of only 40 per cent of a nuin'R labor. Combining prune growing with other crops which have a la bor burden at a different seawon of the year, or with livestock or poultry raising was declared bet ter, since a man may use Ills labor all the year round with some re turn. Moisture In Soil "To preserve the moisture In the soil, don't leave the cover crop on too long this means earlier spring plowing or discing. .Summer weed control Is also imporlant to pre serve the moisture," Mr. Long said. "To put more humus Into the noli than the trees .are taking out Is something else to keep In mind. For this, plant a cover crop in August or September. Manure or clover fertilizer, or good alfalfa. , clover or vetch straws those with hlth niirneen and protein content have also the advantage of de caying rapidly." said Mr. Long. For nourishing the trees them selves he urged additional use of commercial fertilizers such as mil-, phate of ammonia, nitrate of soda or the like, used about the first of March. Phosphorus and potash bring no returns In the Willamette valley, flu the soil Is n I ready sup plied with these.
