(The I allowing article was In

Statesman. hut It waa mislaid at
. Corvallis by mistake, and did not

this week.) ,
Kditor Statesman: .
The growers of strawberries
have been making money. The
demand ior r berries . has been
very keen and this. demand has
held:iip the prices It ' I really
needless to state this fact, hut the
.foregoing fact is the foundation
for greatly increased activity in
strawberry growing such" as we
see going on In the 'state at the
present, time. ; ..'".'',". ' '
Following a. period s of depres
sion when the berries: were worths
less for selling purposes', , there
came" in tines 1 market a gradual
clearing up -of over supply - of
stock and the market reached out
tor more, .immediately ' the in
dustry improved, prices "went up
and with the increase in prices
came as . Increase in ' acreage.
? ' llie Ihwe Outlets
, , There are three outlets for the
local grown berries:, fresh trade,
canned and "barreled market. The
fresh fruit Is mostly Cor local mar
ket except wHaihilooa Hirer,
.where' the berries are shipped by
the carload,' No other section
'ships strawberries to any -great x-
tent. : , ; ' " ;,
The banning berry was formerly
the foundation of the strawberry
iudnstry except for the local trade.
The .VUson' waa canned to a great
'extent as well as the Oregon and
Marshall la a limited 'way. JWlth
" the advent, however, of the Etter-
bn rg." 1 2 1 .lhe others were relegat
ed to a back seat for canning pur
eposes;'1':;: r
- TKterburg Bert, Is Ffolckr -
' The Etterburg 1?1 Is " one of
the best berries ver developed
for putting up in cans. It has all
the characteristics in the fruit for
canning berries that can be de
sired. It is medium sized., firm,
holds its color well. It has many
defects, though, so far as produc
tion and growth are concerned.
, Unless placed on the exact type
of soil it demands, the berry more
often fails than succeeds. - It de
velops well only on heavy, -valley
floor soils and not at all on the
hill soils or in the sandy river
bottom types. Why this .ahould
be so, no one yet has offered an
adequate explanation. Of the
heavier type of, soil, the Wltlam-
-tte series, like the loams, the
silts, or , the clay loams are the
. best. While the berry; can be
grown tin white lands or the half
white Jands. the best success is to
be had on the better drained soils
like the Willamette series. On
. 'the other well drained soils for
some reason or other .this variety
fails to come through with good
production year after year. JEven
then it seems to be -a berry that
occasionally will fail on the best
soils to which it la adapted.
. t Before a grower Attempts this
variety he ahould know that It is
adapted to his sou -or it ahould be
tried- only In . limited way. , No
berry is more disappointing, than
this one in Its-behavior when con
ditions are not exactly suitable
Not all the vagaries can be ex
plained as yet, but in seasons not
. really suitable for various reasons,
as before stated, this variety will
fall and I all 111 many types of soils.
These marginal soils are very good
In same cases.' but - disappointing.
In the, returns at other times. No
more erjcatlir yarlety has ever been
tried that has shown promise in
some ways and failed so -completely
la others. I -, V .
- 1- -The Barrellajc Vrletle
A 'big .business has een; devel
oped in the barreling berry in ad
, dition'jto the canning trade. "This
' trade Is supplied by Oregon and
Marshalls. - Both names are used
indiscriminately lor the same ber
ry and .for different berries. -" All
these berries of different types
are large; red, well flavored ber
ries, but too large and soft for the
canning trade.' The "biggest ex
pansion Jn -the berry Industry has
probably been In this line. i
.According to reports . from the
members ot the Preservers essoc-1
iat!onr they 7 are looking to the
Northwest for the supply .of - bar-,
reled berries.' ot only. In straw-
H berries but largely in other forms
1 of berries. As a large part of the
M stock goes to these people, their
interest in the Northwest berries
ia an added' encouragement In the
development of this trade. Again,
M according to same other persons,
I this .. method of putting up and
11 conserving strawberries is in its
'Infancy, and great 'strides' are to
'be expected, in, the future. J ZIow-

U J
It
uuuutu
ever that may be, there Is no
doubt that the .growers of Oregon
are willing to attempt to plant all
the acreage that is necessary. The
acreage has almost doubled each
year for the last two or three
years, and it looks as though this
rate of Increase wftl just about be
.maintained for the coming Sea
son. It causes one to pause and
wonder as to. the ultimate, limits
of this development.. Many
growers are looking at It from
the viewpoint that If they can ob
tain . one good season from the
plantings they are justified in put-
ling out K piiLULUllS wueiucr iue
price drops after that season or.
not.
. More Kinds Xecded
With, just : two or three com
mercial varieties of i berries it
would be an advantage - to the
strawberry industry to have more
suitable kinds. For instance it
would be a greaty help If a berry
of the canning quality of the Et
terburg $21 could be.grown in
the hills with the yields . of the
Oregon and Marshall. This Would
allow the growers to diversify as
to the market and allow, them to
sell through more than one outlet.
In the future mbre attention
will have to be paid to the type of
soil for which our varieties are in
tended! . That ' the strawberry Is
very local ' in Its adaptation has
been known for some time, but it
seems possible that this can be
carried stiU further with good re
sults. Testing .Many SerdUngs
In the hope of obtaining. addi
tional good varieties, the Oregon
Experiment Station is testing
many seedlings and varieties. Sev
eral thousand seedlings have been
raised 'and fruited, while ' several
-hundred more will be set out this
year.' In addition to these, the
best seedlings chosen from thou
sands by the U. S. department of
agriculture are being sent here
for trial. Maybe among all of
these one or two can be found that
will be of advantage to Oregon
growers. " The tirst of the Oregon
selections will be sent out on trial
this coming season.
Several new varieties have
shown up the past tew years, but
none are of sufficient Importance
as yet to cause them to be planted
in large .acreages. It is just a
case of trial in order to see if a
new variety is satisfactory, and it
must be considered and tested In
many areas before it can be put
out on a large scale. Most of the
varieties brought in will have
one or two good points in their
favor, but in order to surpass or
even accompany the varieties now
being grown, they must fce -equal
or superior In all other .points.
That makes it Tery difficult for a
new variety to make itself valua
ble for all growing conditions.
Tbe Poison Bait .
One of the .biggest strides from
the1 cultural standpoint has. been
the development of the poison
bait lor the strawberry root wee
vil. In some .districts this insect
was gradually increasing, cutting
down on the yield of berries In
some places -even it was so bad
that it almost prevented straw
berry growing In a profitable way.
Results by experiment station
workers and by growers this past
season has been very encouraging
so far. Weevils have been killed
by the thousands In the patches,
and when the poisoning lias been
well done few larvae are found in
the soil At the present time.
If a poison bait or some similar
remedy or control could be workr
ed out for the crown horer, the
Insect problem of the strawberry
would ' be well in hand. As the
acreage increases in a section, par
ticularly In an area of small hold
ings, that insect becomes a great
er and greater menace. In many
places the crown borer lias "been
doing greater damage than tne
root weevil, itself. -One -neglected
patch In a neighborhood seeming
ly can serve as " a breeding place
for "all the' other acreages to be
infested from. '; - " '.
The Cultivation
More growers were using shal
low cultivation this past season in
order to avoid disturbing the lead
ing - root. Cultivation is eces-i
sary mainly from the viewpoint of
elimination of the weeds, so . that
the moisture can be heM In. Shal
low cultivation aeryes for, this pur
pose and' at , the same time does
not reduce the feeding capacity of
the roots. Alter. A alight mulch
has been placed on .the surface by
cultivation, the following icuiuva-
tion necessary apparently: is just
enough to hold: the weed , growth
down.' as the weeds are One big
factor in the ..use of moisture. ; '

APPLE TIME

When the wind is in the chimney
And the air is aorta chill, 1
And there's shadows in the corn
. - era .
.Like the shadows on the hill . ,
Where the orchard trees were
, bending " I
In the moments lost and gone,
With their load of luscious apples
Putting autumn colors on;
ThenI sorta get to" dreaming,
And my thoughts are wont' to
stray;.V" ' ' .
To. the time ef .apple harvest
In that golden yesterday.
You recall how- apples tasted
When you found them in the
. grass;.
And the glorious sweet odor of
the '
Bubbling apple "sass.
Apple butter, apple cider.
And the things we used to store
In a luxury of plenty i
On the old-time cellar floor; .
And these mem'ries - bring - the
voices
Of the friends we used to know
In the circle round the fire
In" the winters long ago.
Tou recall that friendly circle
Where the; firelight used, to
' gleam,
And you still can taste the apples
In a kind of waking dream.
Hear ydu mother's voice and listen
To the stories gaily told
Where the apple "odors drifted
Through the happy days of old.
Don't you think it's kinda tunny
That we drift so far away.
From the raptures 'and the glad
ness And the things of yesterday.
Bet you never eat an apple.
Scarcely ever, any more.
Though they're heaped in lavish
, plenty
At the corner grocery store.-
And . their color's caught, and
stolen
From the orchard wind and sun,
And they're spiced and sweetly
flavored
With old moments, every one.
They're, a pack of old-time glad
ness, They're a ruddy cheeked delight
Coming home to tell you "howdy"
Like a truant home at night.
OUR GROWERS AND
HIGH GRADE APPLES
(Continued from page S)
of California. Their Gravenstelp
is much earlier than ours, and in
ordinary years is out of the mar
ket before ours are ready. - We
raise a wonderful Winter Banana,
which has a fine color and a keep
ing quality which far excels - any
other Winter Banana that I have
seen in the northwest. The third
variety which I lavor is the
Grimes Golden. It Is not regard
ed as high class ah apple as the
other two, but grows to perfec
tion in this Valley and bears very
heavy crops regularly. Its one
fault Is that it tends to overbear,
and, like the Jonathan, must be
heavily thinned. It is wonder
fully free from scab, which I con
aider our biggest problen in apple
raising here, as worms are very
easily controlled due to' the cool
nights.
Blast Raise Best Apples
"There are, of - course, other
varieties which do very well, but
if we stay in tbe apple business in
this valley we must .not 'raise va
rieties which are only as good as
other districts can produce, but
we must strive to rasie those vari
eties which we can raise better
than any other districts. .
"For example, we . can raise a
good Jonathan, but practically the
whole , United States can do . the
same thing, and Colorado raises
perhaps the s best Jonathan,' which
comes about two weeks earlier
than, ours,' and, after the skim
ming off of the cream; invariably
floods the market. ;
fin past seasons it has been
nothing to see the Jonathan mar
ket drop , one (dollar a . box t in 10
days after the flood hits the mar
ket; and that . is just about our
-shipping time. '
, "We also raise a fine -B-ome
Beauty, hut it is rarely ready to
pick before 'November 1, which
means wet "weather and 'mud.

Some Random Remarks
About Apples and Our
Historic AppleTrees .
Editor Statesman:
: I have selected this title. "Ap
plet Parings," because what I have
to say Is so little compared to the
-vast number of things that may
be said on the subject of. apples,
as compared to the mere peeling,
which, just now, is coming in for
a lot of attention. Personally, I
think we could do with less or no
spraying, if the fruit was all
cleared up under the trees each
fall so that the worms would not
crawl into the earth and come
forth as flies in the spring, ready
for a fresh onslaught. As for
spray not being injurious to
health, it seems that to be strong
enough to discourage a worm it
must be strong enough to be
harmful to persons eating it, to
say nothing of the effect the fla
vor would have.
Going to Germany
That the heavy" bearing of ap
ples, in .common with other fruits
throughout the United States, will
affect the crop of 1927 is believed
by all thoughtful growers who see
their trees seriously broken, sb
wise canners, both commercial
and: domestic, are laying in ' sup
plies, while the controversy is go
ing on.' . One of the biggest ships
to take a cargo from Oregon last
week was loaded to the water line
by canned apples from our Mar
ion county orchards and going to
Germany, while very early Jn the
year we sent a ship load to Booth
America of green apples, that is
called green, but of course the
good, juicy variety that ripens
early.
An Apple a Day
Figures are not available, as to
the number of pounds of apples
that were dried commercially, but
certainly housewives in the coun
try took advantage of the sun
shine and the early ripening to lay
aside a couple of years supply.
Arid our own people seem to be
waking up to the fact that "An
apple a day will keep the doctor
away," is more than a pretty piece
of poetry, and leading hotels of
Portland who have printed their
Thanksgiving menu in the Sunday
papers are quoting "apple sauce,"
instead of cranberries. -,i
The Historic Apple Trees
No tree will stand the neglect
that an apple tree will, nor so
faithfully reward the owner for a
little care, and the writer would
be glad to hear about Marion
county's oldest apple tree. There
is one of about 70 years on the
William Egan place,) still ' bearing
when last heard from, and another
known to be bearing 60 years ago
on; A. M. LaFollett's place, while
the century old apple tree at old
Fort Vancouver yielded 55 perfect
apples in September for a festi
val. This tree came from seeds
out of an apple sent by a woman
in England to her husband locat
ed there.
Most of the apples have been
gathered and put away, but it is
not yet too late to put away a few
This adds materially to the har
vesting cost.
"You will notice that these
three varieties, the Gravenstein,
Winter Banana and Grimes, do
not bloom or ripen at the aame''
time, but follow each other con
secutively. This '; allows you ; to
cover more ground with your
spray outfit and spread your( har
vesting over a longer period.
"Another factor which I consid-
er very important Is that the lat
est of these, apples Is.oIf the trees
and gone before 'our wet weather.
sets -in. It invariably costs jnpre
to;harvest after the rainy season
begins and in times of prices like
th last fewyears, it may mean
the difference between profit and
loss." ' -
