CAULIFLOWER FIELD lii hlbhir HI By MADALENE L. CALLIN "The best field of cauliflower in Oregon," was the verdict of one buyer who saw the one belonging to Ed Clark, West Stayton. The growing of cauliflower is an experiment in the West Stayton Irrigation district and is being watched with interest by both growers and buyers. Nearly 100 acres have been planted in the dis trict, this year and so far the ex periment seems to be a decided success. The quality and quantity or tne crop is very good and if satlsfac- tory market is found this year there will no dubt be mucn larger acreage next year. Mr. Clark expects to harvest about 475 crates with an average of 10 to 12 heads to the crate. The West Stayton cauliflower srrowers association was formed this year with Mr. Clarke as pres ident. All of the first grade crop is contracted and there seems to be a ready market for the product. The irrigation district in West Stayton has been aptly named 'The Imperial Valley of Oregon" and with the present success of the first year of cauliflower growing another product has been added to the long list of fine qual ity vegetables grown in the dis trict.
