POLLEN VALUES TOLO
PROFESSOR OF AGRICULTURE
GIVES Y. M. C. A. LECTURE.
Method;) Whereby Orchardlst Mar
Best Profit In Culture of Apple
Are Explained.
Pollrnatlon was the subject of an
address delivered Saturday night by
Professor E. J. Kraus. of the Oregon
Agricultural College, In the series of
lectures on apple culture under the
auspices of 'he educational department
of the T. M. C. A. The speaker haa
devoted the past three years In making
experiments with the pollen of fruit
trees, especially that of the apple. Ha
declared that the study of pollenatlon
was one of great Importance to the
orchardlst and has been of scientific In
terest for many years, the first book on
the subject having been written In ITS
and even now there are many features
of the subject that ara still In the ex
perimental stage.
The fall of the bloom, he said, was
generally attributed to pollenlzatlon.
but thts may be caused by variety
characteristics, rapid growth, diseases
of the tree, rain or snow and too
much spraying at the wrong time. Ha
gave the following rule for the plant
ing of an apple orchard so that the
most complete pollenlxatlon might re
sult: "At least two varieties should be
Dianted as each will benefit the other."
said Professor Kraus. "The varletlea
must bloom at the same time, they
must have an affinity to each other,
both must be good pollen producers,
both should have a commercial value
and both should flower at the same
time."
The transmission from one tree to
another Is done by bees, he said, and
is not blown about by the wind and
for this reason a few hives of honey
bees Is a valuable adjunct to an or
chard. To secure the best results, he also
said, the trees should be planted In
blocks of four rows, the different
varieties alternating In this way.
The next lecture In thts course will
be given next Saturday night. It will
be by Professor Whistler, of Medford,
on "Pear Culture."

FIiRESCK. Or.. Not. 2. (Special.)
The fishing season closed last week
. V. . j ..:.
- -
and fishermen from all along the river
have been In town receiving their pay
for the season's catch. The run of sal
mon has been fair, and at the prico
paid by the canneries, 2a cents each
for sllverslde salmon asd 4 cents
pound for large fish, fishermen have
made their work pay.
It has been an unusual season, as In
stead of first a run of Chinook salmon
and then sllversldes, the larse and
small fish came together, and the Chl
nooks wore still coming when the sea
son closed. It Is the general opinion
among the fishermen that a larger run
of sllversldes Is yet to come, as they
come later each year, and at the close
of the season the men were making
Tery good catchea.
The pack put up by the Florence Can
ning Company, operated by William
Kyle Sons. has. this year approximat
ed 12.000 cases. This cannery installed
new machines this year for heading up
the cans without the use of solder.
Those machines make possible a large
output with fewer laborers. The
largest number of fish received at the
cannery In a single day was more than
12.000. and the largest salmon weighed
a trifle more than 63 pounds. This
year tha cannery had 67 fish boats on
the river. ,
Preparations are being made for the
renewal of construction work on the
Jetty at the mouth of the Eluslaw
River and a crew of men are engaged
In cleaning and repairing the buildings.
The Johnson-Anderson Company, of
Portland, has the contract, and will be
gin by building an extension of about
400 feet on the south Jetty, where work
was done last year. The larger part of
their contract Is for work to be done
on the north side of the entrance to
the harbor, and It will be necessary to
rebuild about flve-elghtha mile of tram
way back of the old Jetty before begin
ning the rock work. It Is understood
the contract for this construction of
the tramway will be sublet, and that It
Is to be built while the contractors are
at work on the opposite side, in order
that there may be no stop after they
have begun towing the rock. The work
will be under the supervision of W. Q.
Carroll, of the Government engineers.
Mr. Carroll was In charge last year in

Reld. ex-City Engineer of Colorado
Pprinpt, has spent the past 10 days In
Lakeview collecting data and investi
gating the work done by the Lakeview
Irrigation & Power Company toward
the reclamation of 0,000 acres In Goose

That the report of the engineer will
be a favorable one Is evident In his

aside from a few legal technicalities It
Is believed that the bonds are prac

In order to facilitate the bond issue,
the Oregon Valley Land Company
transferred its property rights to the
Lakeview Irrigation & Power Company
who In turn last week transferred Its
entire holdings to a corporation known
as the Goose Lake Irrigation Company.
Warranty deeds were given for all
holdings and quit claim deeds to all
rights of way, water rights and water
contracts.
Up to the present time, nearly II.
000.000 has been spent on the Drews
Creek project which Is now about 70
per cent complete. In addition to the
completion of the Drews project, con
struction work will go forward In early
Spring on the Cottonwood project,
which roughly estimated, will cost close
to three-quarters of a million dollars.
With these two projects completed,
sufficient water will be available for
watering every acre of land in the val

line.
Approximately 100.000 acres of land
capable of producing tremendous crops
under Intense farming methods will be
reclaimed.
USE OF COLLS SOUGHT
CO-OPERATIVE DRYER URGED
FOR HOOD RIVER.
Profepsor Lew la Says That With
Right Management By-Products
Can Be Made Profitable.
HOOD RIVER, Or., Nov. It. (Spe
cial.) The question of profitable
handling of lower grade apples was
tho main topic before the Hood River
Fellowship Association, whose mem
bers were addressed Saturday by C. I.
Lewis, of the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege, who suggested co-operative vine
gar and evaporating plants to utilize
the cull product. The expert's plan
was received enthusiastically by a num
ber of members of the organisation and
a general discussion was aroused.
"We should be shipping out train
loads of high-grade vinegar, jellies.
Jams, canned apples and evaporated
fruits." said Professor "Lewis. "Many
communities make a serious blunder,"
he continued, "of making tnese plants
too expensive, however. Elaborate
machinery Is Installed. Machinery that
Is not necessary and which merely ties
up capital, and the result will be that
many of the plants will prove failures.
"In some of our sections prune dry
ers and hop dryers can be easily made
to handle the dried fruits. One large
orchard on the Paciflo Coast made a
handsome profit on cull apples last
year by drying them in a hop dryer.
The expense In changing the dryer and
the addition of certain Implements was
very small. By using proper precau
tion in establishing - by-product
factorlea and employing men who un
derstand the business we will be able
to manufacture our culls into products
that we can dispose of at handsome
profits."
Professor w. ti. iawrence. wno nas
charge of the local experimental work
tt the Fellowship Association, gave a
brief outline of what he has been do
ing In the past month.
The growers recommended that A. I.
Mason, who will meet with a commit
tee of representative horticulturists In
Portland next month to devise some
means of fighting the Lafean Apple
Box bill, which It Is understood will be
again Introduced at the next session
of Congress, to urge the adoption of
the short apple box, at present In use

BOOK CALLED JOKE
Y.
M. C. A. Horticultural Pub
lication Misleading.
COLLEGE EXPERTS STIRRED
Oregon Agricultural Instructors In
dignant at What They Assert
Is Misrepresentation of Con
ditions in State.
OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE.
Corvallis, Nov. 26. (Special.) The
book entitled "Apple-Growing In the
Pacific Northwest," recently published
by the Portland T. M. C. A., is declared
to be "erroneous, misleading and un
scientific" by the members of the Ore
gon Agricultural College faculty, who
delivered the lectures purported to be
published In the book. The college ex
perts are divided between, a feeling of
Indignation and amusement at what
they call a "Horticultural Joke Book."
The college men say that the T. M.
C. A. authorities did not ask their per
mission to print the lectures In book
form or allow them to read the proof
of the stenographic report of the lec
tures. They say that as a consequence
the reports are full of Inaccuracies,
'which make the lectures "ridiculous"
and "very misleading." The instructors
concerned have examined the lectures
as published and point out flagrant
errors in almost every sentence. They
say that the publication will be In
jurious to the college and to the best
interests of fruit-growing in the state.
Account la Garbled.
"The members of our faculty are cer.
talnly justified in feeling indignant or
uproarously amused at the sensation
ally garbled account of our respective
lectures as published in "Apple-Growing
in the Pacific Northwest,' " said Dean
A. B. Cordley today. "No doubt all who
delivered lectures would have been
pleased to aid the T. SI. C. A. in every
way possible to publish a book really
worth while had they been consulted,
but as It stands merely a garbled ac
count of a number of lectures the book
seems to me to be entirely unworthy
of the great T. M. C. A. and of the col
lege." Professor C. L Lewis, who Is chief of
the division of horticulture, said: "A
book eptitled 'Apple-Growing in the Pa.
cific Northwest' has been recently pub
lished by the Portland Y. M. C. A. This
book is supposed to be the report of
some 19 lectures given by various hor
ticultural experts from the Northwest.
Ten of these lectures were given by
representatives of the Oregon Agricul
tural College and Experiment Station.
The division of horticulture alone fur
nished five of these lectures.
Errors Are Many.
"Unfortunately we had no oppor
tunity to see the stenographic report
of the lectures or to read the proof be
fore the book went to press, conse
quently the book is full of errors. In
fact, ridiculous errors. As far as hor
ticulture Is concerned, the book might
be well termed a 'Horticultural Joke
Book.' Unfortunately many of the er
rors are serious, as they misrepresent
certain sections of our state, as well
as place myself and other members of
the division of horticulture In a false
light before the people of our state.
understand that many of these books
are being sent to the East and are be
lng purchased by Eastern people. This
Is unfortunate, as It will mislead these
new people In many ways."
The college experts feel that some ao-
tlon should be taken In order to off
set the Influence of this publication
They are convinced that It will be very
damaging to the State of Oregon If It la
given wide circulation. What will be
done has not yet been decided, but the
college men are already In communlca
tlon with the Y. M. C. A. authorities,
and a conference will probably be held
In the near future with the purpose of
taking some action In the matter.
Potato Experiments Success).
GOLD HILL, Or., Nov. 26. (Special.)
With the idea of propagating a po
tato suited to soil and climatic condl
tlons In Southern Oregon, which has no
particular claim to fame as a potato
county, George Holcomb has expert
mented the past season with vines
grown from seed from all the potato-
producing countries of the world. Al
though potatoes grown direct from seed
are supposed to be about the size of
marbles, Mr. Holcomb has some as
large as eggs. He will experiment next
season with several varieties, and
hopes to discover the best potato for
cultivation in the Rogue River Valley,
which at present ships in a large part
of the potatoes It consumes from the
Willamette Valley and California.

It In connection with his planing mill.
This will enable Mr. Peterson to add
largely to the output of both sawmill

advantage to Woodland Is .the fact that
Mr. Peterson's payroll amounts to
aDout $2000 a month, and this money
will circulate In Woodland. Mr. Peter
