The interest in fruit growing has reached a stage in Lane county when the formation of a county horticultural society would be of great benefit. A number of or chards planted as an investment are beginning to bear while new or chards of standard fruit are being planted. A horticultural society would bring growers together and often the experience of one wrvuld be oigrea.wxneut and saving of expense to others. Although the vt ins incite vaney nas ueen a great fruit growing country for years the work has been of a haphazard na ture and the beginner in orchard planting finds difficulty to obtain reliable information as to the best method of planting, pruning, culti vating and the numerous other de tails connected with orchard work. Then again to obtain a good price and rstablish a market, a reputa tion must he made for the fruit in commercial centers. This will re quire knowledge of the best meth ods of (tacking and drying. Hy combination in selling enough could be obtained to make it an ob ject to ship to the best markets and establish the reputation ol our fruits. A small quantity would have no effect wkii-ver. Enough must be sent to bn.. it into popu lar favor, r or these reasons we believe a society for the discussion of our fruit interests would be of great benefit to those interested, and prove a stimulant to orcliard and fruit growing.
