Contrary to many reports that
have been circulating, it was
stated that the overhead of the
organization would be not over 6
per cent. The financial outlook
for the association is very bright,
it was stated.
The dried fruit sales , depart
ment, of which J. yi. Clifford is
the head, sold approximately 7,
200,000 pounds of dried prunes.
Of this amount over 70 per cent
were of the 30-40 rade or larg

Raises Apricots and Makes
Records With His Pure
fc Bred Holstein Cows
One ot the profitable as well
as interesting little ranches ot
Riverside county, Cal., Is situat
ed near Hemet and is conducted
by the Rev. N. L. Browning, min
ister of the local Christian church.
There are only five acres In the
farm. Four, of these are planted
to apricots and from them ,a
crop of twenty-eight tons was
harvested, last year. The other
acre is well taken care of ana
supplies the minister's table with
many kinds of vegetables. Nu-:
merous friends are also remem;
bered from the 'products of this
garden.
Mr. Browning is very much in
terested in Holstein cows and
when in 1919 the Riverside
County Farm bureau shipped in
five carloads of cattle, Holsteins
from WisconsiS and Jerseys from
Texas, he purchased two of the
pure-bred Holstein cows, Bess
Hartog Pteterje De Kol and Segis
De Kol Bess. The latter has led
the Riverside County Cow Test
ing association in production sev
eral times, and is also the dam of
a fine young bull that was recent
ly sold to Riverside county. As a
five-year-old j her seven-day rec
ord is 558.4 pounds of milk and
31.645 pounds of butter. Bess
Hartog Pietertje De Kol has a
record j at three and one-halt
years of 4 84 pounds of milk and
thirty-one pounds of .butter. She
is the dam of two very promising
ifhelfer calves.
Mrs. Browning is as interested
In these cows as is Mr. Browning
and during the last test of SegU
De Kol Bess when Mr. Browning
had smashed a finger f nd coulr
not milk, she courageously-volunteered
to do the milking for tht
balance of the test,. The Brown
ings are members of the Califor
nia Growers' association and Mr
Browning is secretary of the

GOING JFTERIHE
TIPS IT FOOT
Must "Get" the Pesky Bug,
or He Will Get Pears,
Prunes and Cherries
The Statesman of yesterday
containel he news that on a re
cent inspection tour. Prof. A- L.
Lovett, entomologist of Oregon
Agricultural college, Earl Pearcy
of the Oregon Growers Coopera
tive association, and S. H. Van
Trump, county- fruit inspector,
found prune or pear thrips on
cherries, pears and prunes in this
district. The warm weather fol
lowing the prolonged, cold snap
has brought the thrips oat, but
not in excessive numbers. .
Growers are advised by Pro
ferrsor Lovett .to undertake the
regular thrip spray program. To
be effective the first spray should
be applied at once. This consists
of miscible oil four gallon's, black
leaf "40" three-fourths . pint to
100 gallons of water.
A second application hould be
applied just before the blossoms
open. Use the same solution but
reduce the amount of oil to two
gallons to the 100 gallons of
water, ,
v On pears, it la believed that the
advisable spray will be to add
Black. Leaf "40", three-fourths
pint to the 100 gallons to the
regular pink spray for scab. The
addition 61 a spreader, using ont
pound .to 100 gallons, would ; oe
particularly ' advisable in tihit
spray.
' Regarding this application on
pears, It seems especially advisa
ble because of the fact that spray
applications will be made anyway,
that with the possibility of ser
ious Injury from thrips growers
should take the precaution oi
adding this nicotine sulphate ano
spreader for thrips' control.
Going After Them
The Liberty district, south of
Salem', is where1 the thrips have
been, found ia greatest numbers.
The growers out there are al
ready after the pesky bugs, hot
foot. The Marion county comrt
has contributed $25 to a fund for
buying spray, and work was yes
terday being done In the Radcliff
orchard In the Libert district.
The thrips are' mostly working 8n
the prune trees, but they are
found also on pear and cherry
trees.
, Growers In other districts, how
ever, are warned to be on the
lookout for the thrips, and to
fight them to a finish. A stitch in
time saves nine, and a little stren
uous work done in time may save
a whole fruit crop.
THE CULLING OF
. FLOCK IMPOOM
For Egg Production This De
mands Some Skill and
Also Some Knowledge
Culling out the flock and elim
inating the drones has of late
years become almost an art, sub
ject to the operation of experienc
ed hands rather than the efforts
of the novice. This applies o
productive grounds quite as much
as fer breeding and exhibition
purposes. Paying results are on
ly possible with fowl that are
more than average producers or
which possess superior value as
breeders and show room speci
mens. In brief, the modern bird
must be up In standard qualifida
tlons as well as egg production
The strong demand for good lay
ers has of late years somewhat
obscured show room demands;
but the breeder catering to the
market for bredeing and fonnds
tidn stock cannot wholly avoid
standard qualifications. In cull
ing It Is advisable to eliminate
all those specimens showing phy
sical deformities that are ineradi
cable these, birds can often h
allowed to develop for table pur
poses until size has been attained.
In all nocks, there are here and
there, blfds that are not well
born, or they may have suffered
neglect to such an extent a to
be practically worthless; these
had better be destroyed. From a
show-room standpoint there will
always be specimens . possessing
disqualifying faults. If there is
room, these can , be gTown for
either eggs or circass though
they may possess little or no val
ue in the breeding pen. At best,
their presence is only tolerable
so long as they show possible re
turns for feed and care.
Culling for egg production de
mands some skill and knowledge
of the bird's anatomy and physi
cal conditions. In the adjust
ment of a flock of prolific fowl
dispose ot those -specimen that
are backward iu de v;.t pment and
evince a want of vitality, but
keep the puMets that lay ratner
early and are robust and active.
In the case of heni k-.ep a late
moulter. flJinlj thai show wi'll
'orme t plump cmbs and wattles
are good to keep, likewise tl.ose
w.th pale vent-?, beaks and legs.
The skin of gojl layers is rather
kose and flabby 'on thy abJ jmen
and between the breastbone and
vt::t Pelvic bor.-s of :wrodu.-?rs
should be th;n, straight, flexible
and wide ar't. Obviously iho
active and rioiom that arc go'.d
fj'-.dcrs and ro.-?st with fall crops
are also good growers of hen
fruit, while those with long- toe
nails, which' Is an evidence of in
activity, should be ' eliminated.
As already said, culling down a
flock for high production is not
only an important operation, but
one that require some knowledge
and skill; for this reason it
should be done by persons pos
sessing the necessarv (qualifica
tions to do It right, or else good
birds may be discarded and -poor
ones given unmerited distinction,
which would negative thu object
in either case.
PROFITS III THE
POULTRY FIELD
The Danger Line Is About a
Dollar Net Perv Capita,
Says This Authority
The following is from the Farm
and Tractor section of the Los
Angeles Times:
Last week, in answering a cor
respondent, reference was made to
the net' income necessary per hen
per year in order to make poultry
profitable. The proposition was
advanced that the danger line was
about $1 net per capita. For me
dium sized flocks this is hardly
enough to make them a good in
vestment though it may afford a
mere living wage. Of course. It's
all in the man behind the poultry
gun. If one is a good -business ex
ecutive and knows the how of
management, the Income ought to
be double this amount. In a recent
survey made by Prof. Dougherty,
head of the poultry division In the
agricultural college at Berkeley,
covering four successful poultry
farms, the first averaged 176 eggs
per hen and gave a net profit on
each hen of $4.43 for the year
1919; the second, with an average
yield per hen of 143 eggs, .netted
only $1.30; the third had an av
erage production ot 140 eggs, and
made a profit of $2.08; the fourth
received 129 eggs per hen "and
made a profit of $2.12. These
farms were all In the same countv
and had equally favorable loca
tions. Each was a 1000-hen farm
aand all costs, including interest
on investment. (atp fira in.
ance, hired labor, etc., were 4n-
cinaed in the expense when figur
ing net profit.

It Is Gooti for the Poultry
Houses and the General :
Farm Surfaces, Too
A correspondent writes for the
"government Trecipe' for white
wash; or, In case that is not hand
ily available, for formula tha
will stick." Now "that the win
ter rains are over is a good time
te gf?ve the poultry premises a
"going over" with a good white
wash , Here is the "government
recipe" which will be found to
wear well, provided It is properly
prepared and applied:
Half a bushel of unslaked lime;
slake with warm water, covering
it during the process to keep the
pteam; strain the liquid through
a fine sieve' or" strainer;, add a
peck of salt, previously well dis
solved in warm' water; three
pounds of ground rice, boiled , to
a thin paste and stirred in tolling
hot; half a pound of powdered
Spanish whiting and a pound of
glue which-has -been' previously
dissolved over a slow fire; add
live gallops hot water to the mix
ture, s'tir well, and Jet stand for
a few days, ' covered so ns to pro
tect it irom dirt It should 'be
applifd hot. One pint will cover
a square yard when properly ap
plied. Small brushes, are best
It is fine for both inside and out
side wbrk. As will benoticed this
recipe calls for a permanent coat
ing, and hence may be rather ex
pensive for ordinary uses on the
farm. In the interests of econ
omy in cost, preparation and ap
plication the following recipes
from Farmers' Bulletin No. 474,
U. S. department of agriculture,
will be found serviceable: ' j
(1) Slack 62 Dounds (1 bush
el, of quicklime with 15 gallons
of water. Keep barrel covered
until steam 'ceases to rise. Stir
occasionally to prevent scorching.
( 2 ) Two and one-half pounds rye
fiour. Heat up in one-half rat
ion cold water then add two gal
lons boiling . water. (3) Two and
one-half pounds common rock salt
dissolved in two and " one-half
gallons hott water.1 IWix (2) and
(3) pour (1) and stir till thor
oughly mixed. All thesd are ser
viceable for interior work walls,
ceilings, etc.
. For exterior purposes, such as
poultry houses, barns, fences, etc.,
the following can be recommend
ed: " '. '
( 1 ) Sixty-two pounds ( 1 bush
el) of quicklime. Slack with 12
gallons of hot water. (2) Two
pounds common table salt, one
pound sulphate of rinc, dissolve
in two gallons of boiling water.
(3) Two gallons of skim milk.
Pour (2) Into (1), then add (3),
and mix thoroughly. A pound of
cheap bar soap dissolved in a gal
lon of bolliag water and added to
.about five gallons of thick white
wash will gJve'lt a' gross 'like that
of oil paint. - , .
Whitewash not only adds to the
appearance of - the farm, afford
ing sv? suggestion of :, thrift and
prosperity, but It Is also a puri
fier and a destructive agent to
lice and mites. and the xerms of
disease, all of which find lodg
ment (more or less) In crevices
and cracks of woodwork.
