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

and thrives there better than any
Bucculent fruit.
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

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.

USEFUL BUSINESS
The Auction Sales Company,
New Salem Concern, Fills
a Long Felt Want
One of the most interesting
places in the world is an auction
store, where people bring the
things that they must sell, either
because they are moving and can't
take it with them, or because they
must have the money it will
bring, or because they have, more
of it than they want, or because
they have been stung by the
prosperity bug and simply can't
bear to live with the old things of
their earlier life. 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

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. '

DID YOU KNOW That Salem is permanently the filbert
center of the United States; that this district now grows
more filberts and has more young trees' and more prospect
ive filbert growers than any other section of the country;
that this is the only district of the United States suitable
for filbert growing, excepting parts of western Washington
and northern California; that there is big money in filberts;
that this is a crop that has la number of very important ad
vantages, and that there is vast room here for more fil
bert growers, who will take none of the risks of the pio
neers in the industry; and that the acreage in the filberts
in the Salem district will double next year?

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. Somebody wants , every-
