Every cent of this large sum
has been expended within , the
boundaries of the state and placed
In circulation in the 21 counties
where unit of the gnard are sta
tioned. The cost of the guard to
the state is comparatively small,
the report shows, the state re
ceiving practically $5 for every
dollar expended. In this connec
tion: General White's report con
tains an interesting table com
piled . from national statistics
which Indicates that the per
! capita cost to the state is less than
f any state in the union having a
similar or greater strength In
troops. :
-, More than $110,000 has been
expended by the war department
In permanent installations at the
field training site at Camp Clat

ernment for the allotment of an
'additional $103,000 in Install
ments dnring the next few years
to complete the project, the re
port shows. . The only cost to the
state is the annual rental fee of
$2253. The state holds an option
to buy the camp site at a very
low figure, a step that General
wnite recommenas in view oi io
fact that the annual rental fee.
It considered In terms ot Interest,
represents an Interest rate of

Thla la the ninth of a. ariea of
articles dealing; with the work of a
county aaent and show In r his valuo
to tbe farmlnr industry. The assist- W
anco or an agrnt in norucaiturai
work is explained herewith. .
Oregon county agents working
under the direction of the horti
cultural specialist co-operated, in
the conduct of 211' horticultural
meetings attended by more than
13,000 fruit growers during $he,
year 1929. In tbe campaign yr
the correct pruning ot . prune
trees. 28 pruning demonstrations
were conducted - with an atten
dance of 720 prune growers.' The
outstanding; work ' of the - year.
however, was in connection with
orchard soil management and
the use of commercial fertilizers.
In this connection. 52 extensive
fertilizer demonstration tests
were established in orchards,
small fruit plantings or on vege
table crops in nine. counties.
' Horticultural extension work
Is .carried on in - some degree by
every county agent In the state.
In the . counties ' where . horticul
ture is of major Importance, it
Is of course, made the major ac
tivity and . conducted in . an or
ganized manner. . The project is
headed up by one full time horti
cultural specialist to whom . the
county agent Is responsible for
subject matter disseminated.
The program of work In horti
culture for 1929 was built up to
make progress In effecting a bet
ter balance between horticultur
al production i and , - marketing:
possibilities, to effect standard
lzatloa upon the most desirable
horticultural varieties. - to work
toward more economical produc
tion, to Improve the harvesting
methods, and to Increase the ef
fectiveness of marketing . . . .
I Many Groan Meets Held
" In the work; of balancing pro
duction with - marketing . possi
bilities, effort has been mads to
keep horticulturists throughout
the state advised on the trend of
various horticultural enterprises.
This was done at 24 county hor
ticultural outlook meetings par
ticipated In by 1231 growers. At
these meetings the history ot the
development, present status and
the long time outlook of the mors
Important 'horticultural products
of each county was presented. In
connection with, this balancing ot
prodution withi marketing, possi
bilities, "' eounty agents- - continu
ously point out the fallacy ot con
tinuing' to produce ; horticultural
crops on marginal land where the
yields are . low and eost of pro
duction per salt Is high. The good
producer on good land Is encour
aged to Inereass his yields - so

In Chehalem valley, seven years
old, pruned according to the long
or high-renewal system - recom
mended by the college, produced
SO tons -of dried prunes on 20
acres in 1929.' As a four year old
orchard. It produced 1500 pounds
of dried prunes per acre. This in
dicates the value of these prun
ing demonstrations, i -
Four cherry pollenkation dem
onstrations were conducted on as
many farms . using: - bees to aid
pollenlzation. : An all ' day fruit
and nut tour was held in the vi
cinity of Newber in which 100

dusting compared with" liquid sul
phur, spray in controlling' brown
rot were conducted In as many
communities. . Constantly during
the year scores of Individual .calls
on the eounty agent to supply In
formation, on the control ot vari
ous diseases . and Insect pests of
frul tand vegetable crops were
answered. - Timely : Information
