Com'l St VALLEY FILBERTS FOR THE ' SMALLER FARMS (Continued from page 2) t native European species of our i common hazel not, native to al most every section of the United ,: States and Canada. Two or three distinct species ; of the hazel aro native to this country. First, there Is Corylus Americana, hav ( log a range from Southern Can ada in the north to Florida, in the I south and Kansas in the west. This species is the most valuable ; of the native hazels, resembling the best European varieties in soma important respects. Another native species is Coryius Rostrata, the eastern form of "the beaked Basel, having a range from New England to Georgia and mostly confined to tha - coaul ' countrr. Still another species of the' beaked I hazel Is Corylus California which has a - range from . 'Canada to outhsrn California arid "like its i eastern relative. Rostrata, la con fined closely, to coast territory. : In Europe the filbert has been 1 a cultivated ptant yielding food for man; from prehistoric times. Many improved --varieties of the European fllbertDorylns Avella na, were Introduced into the east- ern ttr.ves during the past 5 0 yearsr but they were all promptly attacked and destroyed by the filbert blight, native to the wild v hazel of the east During the past ten or P fifteen!, years we have learned that tbe European filbert can be very successfully grown in the Pacific ! northwest, ( and this success seems largely due to the fact that thus; far the eastern fil bert blight has , not been Intro- duced into Pacific coast territory. As a Commercial Proposition ; "y- In considering the filbert as a commercial proposition one of the first and most Important points t demanding - ; thoughtful consider- at ion Is a suitable soil, There are some prevailing notions as to the, universal adaptability of the fil bert to alt 'soils and v situations' ; that ought to be modified. While the filbert wilt succeed on a great variety of soils, and in a greater variety of locations, than the wal nut and most tree fruits, yet It will not succeed on all soils and in all situations. The filbert r thrives best and yields most pro- ;i:ilcally when)! planted on good : 4ep,rich bottom aoiL providing the soil has good air and water , eralnage. : t While the filbert is practically immune 'from irost Injury when in the dormant, state, yet It is often injured and the erop largely ' destroyed by late frosts during the growing season. For this reason low bottom lands rot having good air drainage are ; 'to be avoided. in selecting a lo cation for a filbert1 orchard. The filbert wilt ; succeed splendidly on ' food. deep fertUe soil ot,tfa ec end bottoms or first ptntW unas, and 1 will succeed almost as veil In th:first range of the red hills where, the soil is, deep and mois- . toreabundant durlngi the grow ing, season, but I have not seen the ttilberf flourishing anywhere - In the upper regions where the soil... la shallow and underlaid by travel and 1 ahale. ObservaUon . also indicates that, filberts grow ing In elevated locations do not ,eome into bearing so early nor I fill so welfas'the same varieties when grown da lower elevations. The! Planting , Authorities differ as to the 'proper distance to plant the fil bert In orchard culture, but most growers are of the opinion that jiO feet each way gives sufficient i room for e'ven; the larger growing varieties like Barcelona. Many . growers are using the filbert as a iwier mt walnut orcnaras, wuero it seems to do exceedingly well, as It grows naturally in tbe shade Sri L b N i h A L h IVI" J h K 1 P Dates of Slogans in Daily Statesman (In Twice-a-Week Statesman Following Day) Loganberries, Oct. 5.

Thorough cultivation of the fil bert orchard is essential at all times, but when in full bearing, and on good deep soil, it will do very well when used as a pasture' for sheep or hogs. Cross pollination of the filbert seems to be necessary to insure regular annual crops, but one should be on his guard about in traducing too many untried va rieties. Many varieties found growing throughout the valley have no commercial value, and some or them are very subject to the attacks of insect and fungous pests. .Pollination and Varieties V . Many experiments In -associating different varieties for' best re sults in pollination are being con ducted at Corvallls. and by practi cal growers in Washington and Oregon. The Barqelpnajs byar, the leading commercial variety in this section,. It is perfectly polling ated by the DhChilly, and as Bet more than 20 per cent of. this variety are required for pollin ation and as the DuChllly bears fairly good yields when so used, should be inclined to limit my commercial planting to these two varieties. In this section to flsrt is tie subject to Insect pests or fun gous diseases. "srne bud mite is practically the only insect that does the crop any injury, and. this pest confines its attacks mostly to varieties that have little commer cial promise. We have in Oregon a bacterial twig blight or the fil bert which some seasons is quite serious, killing back to the ground or to the main trunk of the tree the vigorous, young shoots of the plant. These blighted branches should be carefully cut out. This disease rarely attacks a bearing . Thara a in ihfl east and UW.' - - middle west a native, fungous bllghtVof the filbert which has been death to all plants oi too European filbert ever introduced nto Ithat section. It Is the rig orous" purpose of all Paclfic'coast quarantine officers to prevent the mportatlon of this- disease into our territory. Should Graft These Over As I have written in a former letter to The Statesman a large number of the eaTlier plantings of filberts in this county have failed because of the selection of unde sirable or barren varieties. Some of these plantings have been well cared tor and the trees have crown to good sue. It tnese trees were grafted over to Barce- ona and DuChllly they would very soon be brought into profit able bearing. I have been told by high authority in filbert lore that it is impossible to successfully eraft the filbert. Nevertheless, in sad disrespect to authority, igno rant people continue to succeea at this work right along. J. u. ner ren, of the Middle Grove nursery cast of Salem, has some wonderful demonstration work In grafting the filbert or the native nazei. Wild hazel plants growing m rrther dense forest were selected for grafting between 50 and 100 of them. This grafting was all done late in the season, some oi u late as July 4. And it was uniformly succesful. I saw these plants the past summer, which was the second season of growth. The development of these grafts uca most remarkable, aii were bearing nuts and some of them were fairly loaded. American exporters are advised that in Spain there is a demand for our bathtubs and fountain Dens. The blamed things do seem tr together.

Pianos that the children drummed upon until they grew up and moved away; the cribs where the kids used to climb and crow, and wail when the colic visited them; tbe kitchen range that used to produce the most lav. ish crops of cream biscuits and luscious pies and home-made bread, and beefsteak and dough nuts and hot water for the Satur day night bath. Chairs where mother used to sit and rock the baby, or gossip with her neighbors who dropped in for a friendly chat; soras that would hold Big Sis and her beau in the darkened parlor; lawn mowers that used to run as heavy as loco motives to the small boy who wanted to get away with the gang for a Saturday holiday; fishing poles, -guns, bureaus, dishes, al most everything that people can own or use in the home all these get into every public sale. One can read a wonderful human story in every gale; some gay tales of prosperity, some wonderfully bright hopes for. the sellers that are clearing out to go to a better land somewhere beyond the hozi zon, some of the dreariest trag edies of life, that end at the auc tion block. No wonder that the people of the rural communities, where hu manity is a little closer to the surface than it sometimes is in the cities, fairly haunt the public sales, and make a Bale day a gen uino holiday! In the cities, a sale does not usually partake quite so strongly of the personality of the owner or of the people. TJio articles are more likelyCto .be merely articles for use, or ornament, and their history is forgotten, because the buyer does not know the people Monuments and Tombstones Thia !( the only monument works in Salem Big Stock on Display Capital- Monumental Works 2210 3.

West Salem THE FILBERT IN Salem is filbert headquarters for the United States. It cannot he successfully grown commercially on this continent, excepting in western Oregon and Washington; and perhaps a small strip near the coast in northern California. S'The filbert acreage here will be doubled next year. "Perhaps 100(T acres are now in filberts here. Another 1000 acres will be out before next spring. This will be the story for several years in the future aU the available filbert trees will be set out. Filberts make a very profitable crop here. The father of the industry in this district says filberts are the safest and most profitable of all orchard crops here. ' !.top " um.iSE J. B. GABLE Salem's Xew Auctioneer who owned them.

He followed the pure-bred live stock sales game for years, and is an adept on pedigrees and the good points of fine stock. This business he will take up here in the Willamette valley, along with the regular auction store work; but the store is a permanent, every-day thing. Sales are to be held every Saturday afternoon, at the big store, and private negotia tions can be made any day. Profitable to Owners So much "stuff'.' accumulates in the average home, for which the owner has to find storage, that eventually the home may come to be mostly a store, and not a com fortable home, where there is room to rest. A long term of years in the average home, and the house fainy fills up with fur niture, at least some of which, however good it may be, is a lia- tnlity rather than an asset because it. interferes with the daily home life. To sell it off and get a lit tle new stuff that fits the needs of the present, is often a tremen dous profit to the owner. The safes store takes care of such a need. It offers an outlet to relieve the crowded home of its burden of storage.
