Any oi tne mousautis of berry pickers reaping the rich harvest of Oregon's wild blackberries this year who find what appears to be a cross between these two widespread vari eties will help the progress of agri cultural science by reporting such finds to Dr. George M. Darrow. pom ologlst in charge of sum 11 fruit In vestigations for the United States department of agriculture, who has been sent here fur a year's work at the Oregon experiment station. The Oregon Evergreen blackberry is the best .commercial l berry known. being the highcat ylclder and having b ' ... ,. rutt. iti iiuvur, iiuwever. is lur ue low that of the Himalaya, which is of little use commercially because the fruit Is so soft. "Now, If we can Just get a hybrid of the two which will keep the size, yield and texture of the Evergreen combined with the flavor of the Himalaya, we will have a berry that be of greatest value to the- Pacific coast." Dr. Darrow says the. Evergreen is cne of the few varieties which ap parently comes exactly true from teed, which explains why the wild berries arc acceptable to the can neries. "Hybridization is not im possible, however, as crosses havo been made experimentally and "a number of, off-type vines have been found wild." These off-type wild berries, wheth er among the Himalayus or Ever greens hold possibilities of develop ing such a desirable cross more quickly than can be hoped for in r. purely experimental way. so Dr. Darrow Is appealing to the public to coopcrute In notifying ' the college when such apparent crosses are no ticed during the current berry sea son.
