Let ,mu first consider the be-glnningr-of
silkt As far back as
H 0 B. P.. we 'must go. to Si-
admiring the beauty of the silken
fabrics, : the empervr persuaded
Si-Lin g-Chl to -take : some of the
women 'Of the -- royal household
into' her confidence and develop
the product of the silk worm.
! Seeing that she was finding fa
vor with hr iiubaud, she cbosa
a ; few princesses to help her in
the silk eulturei . These, .women
carried:, the -tiny eggs in specially
made pockets ori cells closes to
their bodies-so that the .heat from
them would help stimn late the
life and hasten the hatching."
! When the worms were hatched
they' were transferred with ' the
greatest of care to clean warm
yet -airy boxes and fed mulberry
leaves every hour of the day and
night till they were full-grown.
?. Tedious care ; - they required.
but it was considered an honor
to be allowed to help in the silk
culture. Later , other - Chinese
wre hired to do the , tiresome
work,! hut the knowledge of the
silk worm was kept a secret for
many centuries. In, fact all the
royal houses of Europe were en
Joying silk -without any idea of
how- the Chinese produced the
threod with which to weave such
wonderful fabrics." I said the roy-
af houses of Europe,' for only such
were allowed to wear it. Silk
was for queens, and the favored
ones of earth.
! During the sixth century two
estorian monks "defied the Chi
nese death penalty and carried
eggs t to- Emperor Justinian of
Stoma in' hollow pilgrim staffs, to
gether with complete information
of the silk inustry. For this they
were richly rewarded. After thia
the silk culture spread rapidly.

France and England. Japan took
up the culture, and Is today the
leadine silk producer of the
world.
There were several attempts to
raise silk in this country, but to
bacco proved more profitable and
easier to raise and so silk did not
newish for long at any time
In 1835 Cheney Brothers and
other silk merchants were behind
a inovement to encourage the cul
ture "of silk in the south of this
country. The silk was perfect.
Even China and Japan with all
their experience could, not produce
a finer quality, hut the tedious
labor, and the long hours of care
required in the feeding of tb
worms, and the unwinling of the
delicate threads of silk from the
cocoon required high priced labor
in this country, while in Italy
arid the orient it was' done for a
few cents a day.,
put the American silk mer
chants werenot to be beaten. If
they could not compete with the
old world in the raising of the raw
materials, they, could at least sur
pass them in the manufacture-of
fabrics from the raw silk. So
they; began contracting with the
silk farmers' for the silk after
it was unwound from the cocoons,
and when It reached this country,
on the most delicate of machines
they produced the fine materials
that we enjoy very day f amrics
far. superior in every way to those
the "orientals produced on hond
turned machinery. " ' ' . '" '
For? the last three years, most
of the silk from the orient has
been brought across the - Pacific
tp Seattle, andj from there sent to
New York and Chicago by rail.
Silk, the queen of fabrics, the
gem of the orient, Is a very prec
ious .cargo, and receives even
more consideration than human
freight.. 1 ., ?' J......,tr i

When a; silk train is ready
nsually about two hours after a

systems give way to it. Speed
limits are waived, and special
trains , , must ' wait. : Each train
travels under sealed orders with
heavy cordon of armed men to
guard it. Sixtyfive hours is all
the time they are allowed to cross
the continent, The fastest passen
ger train takes 70 hours by law.
These, special passenger trains

Women , complain too, little

shipments, and the skill, and effi
ciency of the: silk mills in the
eastern state,' that ; make every
American woman an empress and
clothe her in the royal silk.
A Wotlerful Display
At the store of -Kafoury Broth
ers, in Salem; there is now being
displayed, in the east front show
window, a wonderful exhibit "of
silk worm breeding and raw silk
farming and -silk manufacturing.
- There is shown in the exhibit
the display which Mr. Thomas of
Scio had at the Oregon state fair
a few weeks ago. The cocoons in
this display are on oak tree
leaves and boughs, seeming to in
dicate that the silk worms have
been feeding on these, leaves
These cocoons of Oregon growth
are as fine as the others in the
display in 'the Kafoury store win
dow. .
. The others are from Syria,
showing them on mulberry tree
leaves and boughs, and from Ja
pan, showing the natural colors of
the cocoons. There is also a dis
play of the Taw Silk In the natural
color, before washing, from Syria.
"dn the Japanese part of the dis
pay all the grades are shown ffom
the cocoon to the finest manufac
tures of silk. First the cocoon
Then the raw silk, the silk ready
for winding,, then ready for spin
ning; ready for twisting, ready
for the dye house, etc.
There is also a display showing
the development of the silk worm

bhtterfly.all the way up to the
silk worm In its wonderful
cocoon.
t Other Oregon Growers
There are several other Oregon
growers of silk worms, besids Mr.
Thomas, whose display' is in the
ir 1 .
"'ry snow .window. A com-
paay in the suburbs of Portland
has undertaken the production of
silk worms, and of raw silk, on an
extensive scale.
A number of farmers through
out the Willamette valley have
experimented with the silk
wvnns. luej nave found out
that we can grow the mulberry
trees, on the leaves of which the
worms feed, as well as they can
oe produced in any country.
With American enterprise and
inventive genius on the job, there
is nicely to be in the Willamette
valley before very long a larre

Several Days Yet
The display in the show win
dow of Kafoury Brothers will be
Kept intact; for several days, in
order that every one Interested
may have an opportunity tosee it

wortn your while.
tthe trees are not yet in full bear-
lug, and very few nuts as yet
reach the market. fj$ tv
t What; we want Is more produc
tion, to . establish marketing and
quotations for .the Oregon nut,
wbkh is far ahead of the import
ed in every way," the latter being
small, some without kernels' and
all of doubtful age, and as soon
as the haying public learns the su
periority bf our nuts oyer those ot
Europe, they will cut such a hole
in the 25,000,000 pounds Import
ed annually at present, that all we
can grow! for years to come will
meet a quick "demand.
Get the Right Kind
Prospective growers should be
careful .to select the right varieties
of nursery stock, such as will bear.
Those without experience should
be able to ascertain this from re
sponsible nurserymen, or better
from a grower who has plants for
sale from a successful orchard.
Remember that the filbert is a
cultivated haiel and that the lat
er grow here to perfection! If I
should tell those fellows bick ln
owa thatrwe use the, wild hazel
for props for our apple and peach
rees, some of which are tour

Down j in southern California
they grow most of our crops and
more and they can dictate the

there first and failed. It seems
that filberts are grown more suc-
:essfully along the Oregon coast
and part! of Washington than In
eny other place in the United
States, which gives a huge terri
tory to snpply. They are a long
lived tree. Plant a few for old

Splendid Showing Also Made
by I his Cooperative Con
' cern on Other Fruits
The Producers Canning and
Packing kompany, with its can
nery on North Commercial and
Jefferson streets, is making distri
bution to its members on the
prune pool for the past season.
The net returns are $58 a ton.
or si. 44 a bushel. This means
that the prunes of the members
were canned and sold in the can
on the market, and, after the ex
penses of canning, including all
overhead charges, were paid, there
was left !1. 4 a bushel of sixty
ponds to the growers; to the mem
bers of the company who furnish
ed prunes,. This cannery is owned
and operated by the growers. It
is a cooperative company made up
of producers.
The ruling price for prunes
during prune harvest was $10 a
ton, or $1.20 a bushel.
A Splendid Six wing
This make a most splendid
showing lor the Producers com
pany. The managers do not like
to give Out total figures, but it
is safe tb say that something
above $20,000 Is represented by
the prune checks. now going out.
This same cooperative concern
made a good showing the past
season In: some of its other pools.
For instance, It paid five and five-
that is being overlookea by me
farmers of western Oregon. There
is no crop that will bear more
regularly than the filbert. In the
Eugene section, ever since the
oldest orchard came into bearing
20 years ago, there has never
been, a crop failure. s lu Salem,
we have missed One crop, follow
ing the 1919 freeze' when; the tem
perature dropped to fi'om 11 to
it degrees below zeio. Since it
takes a temperature of colder
than 8 below to injure the blos
soms which are in full bloom from
December 15th to March loth,
and since rain or other weather
conditions have no effect on the
cropping of the filbert, we believe
we are justifie in saying that the
filbert is practically an annual
bearer. We know of no ' other
fruit that will stand in that class
Also it comes into profitable
bearing at from 5 to 6 years of
age and increases in productivity
until it reaches the 20th to 22nd
year and will keep bearing heavy
andj regular crops for 100 years
and belter. There is a 30 Oacre
orchard In Kent, England, that is
125 years old .and bearing profit
able crops every year.
A lroritalio Crop
For the "last 12 ' years, the
growers have! been receiving 25c
a pound average price. Yields
have been running from 2 On to
400 pounds an acre the fifth and
sixth year, 800 to 1,400 pounds
at 10 years, and a ton and better
at 20 years of age. Following are
the yield records of a filbert or
chard. The fourth year, 200
pounds, fifth year 550 pounds,
sixth year, 530 pounds; seventh
year, 950 pounds (note the sixth
year nursery stock was grown on
the orchard trees, resulting in a
cutting down of the crop). The
seventh year crop was valued at
$190 per acre. This orchard re
ceived no special care outside of
careful cultivation. The pruning
was neglected.
Our Filbert Importations
Into the United States 20,000,
000 pounds of foreign filberts
are ' imported annually. These
nuts, while small and inferior in
quality, are all sold without any
advertising. It will take 10,000
acres of full bearing orchards to
produce 20,000.000 pounds. We
have 2000 acres of bearing and
non-bearing orchards. Most of
"our local nuts are being consumed
by people who formerly ate few
if any foreign filberts. So we be
lieve we are justified in saying
that there is a market for several
times 10,000 acres of filberts.
Two Bugaboos
With the above facts before us,
why are we holding back in plant
ing additional acreage? Could it
be two troubles which in them
selves are neglible but which
have been exaggerated until they
seem to be insurmountable obsta
cles to the growers?
These two items are blight and
hliirht is native to the western
hazelnut, so Is eer present
There is one way to avoid blight,
namelv, plant good strong trees,
plant them in rich ground, give
them plenty of cultivation, aon t
forget to hoe them and to sucKer
them. In other words. Keep mem
growing.- Neglect your .cultiva
tion -and vour trees will surely
get blight, the same as young Hve-stock-vthat
are undernourished
will fall prey to different diseases.
Filbert trees four years old and
older seldom ever have blight.
Puckering; Simple Matter .
The suckeriBg or removing of
the filbert suckers is a very sim
ple matter. They will pull orf
very readily when they are five or
six inches high. At that stage
the yare not wdody. This process
should be repeated three or four
times or every time when the
suckers get six inches high. This
operation takes no longer than
hoeing and can be done at the
same time. But let the suckers
grow until they are the size of
broom handles and it will take
a half hour to remove them and
you will have just about ruined
your tree at the same time. If
the suckering is done properly
each year, the tree will produce
less and less suckers as it grows
older.
1K Not Bother Older Trees
Suckers and blight don't seem
to worry the older filbert grow
ers, in fact, nearly all of those
whose acreage is bearing are
planting more fillwerts. One grow
er is doubling his acreage, which
increase will give him one of the
biggest filbert orchards in this
section.
We Have a Monopoly
The filbert has a countrywide
market. It can be grown 'only in
western Oregon, western Wash
ington 'and British Columbia.
With this limited section to pro
duce the filberts for the whole of
North America, there should be
no fear of overprouctron for years
to come. In fact, we have a mon
opoly on the filbert growing in
dustry. HARY Li. PBARCY.
