ORCHARD CULTURE,
Editor Willamctto Farmer!
la tho Farmer, of September lOtli, I made
proposition that we, a farmers, discus og
ricultural topic through tho Willamette
Farmer, and that we discuss tho question of
orchard culture.
So far a our observation goes, the most
productive and healthy orchard were tended
with all the caro of it garden. A itrong and
vigorous growth of wood i not always pro
ductive of corresponding fruitfulncai, but
often leema, for tho time, to hinder it. Cut
turo promote tho growth of wood, and for
thisj-eason there i little division of sentiment
a to the propriety of cultivating tha ground
whilo the tree aro young, but many recom
mend sec-ding to grau after this. They say
tho root of a bearing tree should never bo
disturbed, and any cultivation now Is an in
jury. Tho root of an applo treo aro of two
kinds, each having its own special work. All
tho largo root havo a thick succulent bark
and a hard woody structure. Theso aro the
main support of lifo and tho reservoirs in
which tho sap is stored for the use of tho tree
and aro also tho arteries for convoying it to
and from tho trunk and leaves. They gener
ally penetrate tho earth rather deeply and
hold the treo in position. Tho other classes
of roots are thread-like filaments that spring
from these main root and make a perfect net
work in the soil abore them. Theao rootlet
aro to the large tree what the leave are to tho
branches. They ore of annual .growth and
never increase in eizo as they grow, but fre
quently decrease, tho tip being heavier and
stiller. They contain no woody structure and
cannot long stand exposure to the atmosphere
'Their destruction checks growth in about tho
proportion that the removal of leaves does.
A small amount of growth can and does take
place from the main root by absorption with
out these rootlet, but the main growth is af
fected by thein. They are not powerful
enough to force, their way through a hard.
closdaoiljh.no the necessity of keeping JJie
ion mouow, nicy are mainiy near in sur
face, tho largo root lying deeper, below tho
reach of sun and drouth. Nature intended
all her vegetable productions to be ful from
the surface of the soil. Manure buried deeply
does little or no good. Hence tho benefit of
culture on tho surface, which greatly over
balances any injury to the root. The plow
must not run deep enough to tear up main
roots; a snisll one may be broken off but it
loss is nothing more than the pruning of a
limb. The mass of rootlet cut oil' and turned
over in tho early Spring are mainly the dead
feeder.of last year. To thoroughly plow and
loosen up the surface In the early Spring is to
give oil tho roots and rootlet a full oppor
tunity to perform all .their functions, and if a
liberal amount of fertilizers aro worked in at
tho samo time the result is greatly increased.
Subsequent surface cultivation may possibly
Injure a few roots, while it benefit tho
grow th of many, Iu orchard long neglected
the largo root do como nearer the lurfaco
than Is desirable, but where frequently stirred
thero is no trouble with them. Here, then, is
one good and sufficient reason for tho culturo
of orchards; that tlte ground may lie kept
sufficiently loosened for the rootlets to grow
readily through it and to bring fresh supplies
o! nutriment within their reach. A mellow
soil Is what wo should aim at to promote the
longevity of our fruit tree. Loiuink.

The Tune to Cut Clover.
Kditor Willamette Farmer i
In your last issue Mr. John Minto asked
when was the proper time to cut the first
crop of clover to reap tho greatest amount of
soed. I think that I lave answered the ques
tion In a previous issue, but as we fail to read
or our minds fail sometime to take In all that
is said, I w ill tell it again and again if neces
sary. The labor I perform I done for the
good of others a well as for myself, Clover
should lie cut a soon as the first blossoms ap
pear; by so doiug the roots of the clover have
more vitality, will send out stronger shoots
and will hare longer to mature, and the after
math can be cut and threshed before our Sep
tember rains, though a little rain on it after
cut will make it thresh easily, Loiuink.

Tbe Aphis, or Tree lice.
Mr. Henry Miller called on us Tuesday and
aaid that he hod noticed a number of lady
bugs on his place near Portland, and after"
watching them found they destroyed the
aphis, in some instances cleaning the bushes
and tree entirely of this peat Tbe exhaust
He article published a few week since from
the N V. Tribune recommended tha import
ing ol these lice destroying bugs. But since
we have plenty of them here there will be no
u importing them. This is probably a good
o:nen for our next year's crop.

THE BACK QUESTION TO BE SETTLED.
The following from the Sacramento Record
Union I intcresting'to nil fanners on tho Pacific
coasti
"It has been a big question for California
wheat farmers how to get rid of the exponso
of sending their grain to market In sacks.
This expenco ha been a burdensomo ono
when tho farmer were obliged to pay a fair
price for sacks, but when dealers, seeing a
short supply, clubbed together .and put up a
job on tho farmers, or in tho moro polito lan
guage of the craft, mado a corner on sacks
and compelled the payment of a heavy ad
vance, simply because they could, tho burden
lias becomo almost unliearable. Tho fanners
havo been talking about trying to bring about
a chargo in this respect for years, but each
harvest has been found them still in tho samo
helpless conditiou, and obliged to pay round
prices for sacks to put their wheat in. Often
crops have been sold when the cost of sacks ha
absorbed tho last dollar of profits in the pro
duction of the crop. When tho grange was
started in California, one of the greatest in
ducements held out to wheat growers wa
that of making a grand combination of those
who would have 'to buy sacks and order them
direct from the manufacturers in Scotland, or
what wa supposed would be still better, it
was said by associated effort and capital the
growing of juto and tho manufacture of sacks
and pay whatever the greed of monopolists
may dtrnand. Hut now the day is near at
hand when tho sack question is to bo settled,
and inadirectionondbyan agency least expect
ed. I The Southern Pacific rnllrosd Is to be
the means California capital the power that
is to relieve tho farmers of this burdensomo
tax on their enterprise and industry. When
tho Southern Pacifio is completed through to
tha Gulf of Mexico tho routs of thi wheat crop
ol utiitornia to Europe will bo changes!. In
stead of going around the Horn Itwillgo over
land over the Southern Pacifio to Ualvcston,
and not in sacks, but in bulk. When there
It wlHJi.Jitlstcd Into elevators from the cara,
and'from the elevators It wiirle carried by
machinery into the ships and delivered from
these ship into the warehouses at Liverpool.
The coat of handling will then be avoided, and
the grower will get tho benefit of it. In from
two to five years from this dato the great
wheat crop of this coast will go in this way to
!U destination, and then wo may expect to
seo a new era In the development of this
country. Iu order to get some Idea of this
sack tare wo will state that tho wheat crop
alone in this Stato this year will bo not less
than 33,000,000 bushels or lO.AOO.OOO sack.
At ten cent apiece theao sacks will cost
the farmers the sum of O.fl-TO, 0C0. Addthii
to the profits of the wheat prod ucerscco'i year
nnd we will sosn to g'n te seo p Yiterlty wbsr
we now see constant struggle to jmy Interest
an 1 expenses. Iiesldei this, other ,u ntlo i of
alii o it equal importance to the fanners of this
State are about to bo nettled by the comple
tion of the Southern l'acillo railroad. San
Francisco has always bocn the most expensive
port In the world from which to shin tho nro-
duce of the country. Tho w heat of tho eutire
State will pass right by San Francisco iu the
cars of this rca 1 without paying to that citv a
cent of toll. The cars will take the grain
direct from the local warehouse ami land it in
the elevators on the Gulf of Mexico, and from
the local warehouse it will only 1 reshippod
once before it reaches the warehouses in Liver
pool, and tho entire work of thw rcshipment
will bo done by machinery at a small expence.

The aulas r lands Occupied by Indians.
St. Louis. Sept. 21. Judno Krum. James
O. llroadhoad aud John F, Phillips, a com
mittee appointed to report on the status of
the Government land of Indian Territory, and
particularly in the Ocklahama strips, will re-
Jiort to a citizens' meeting to-night that the
urisdiction of this vast territory was not ac
?uird from the Indians, but by purchase
rom France. Tho Indians never had a
title to the country, and simply occupied It
under contract and permission from the
United States. The Government has by va
rious so-called treaties assigned to Indian
throughout tho, country certain Isnds, but
ha never granted them freehold of the land
in any caaoi nor cai tho Government bv
treaty give them the right to occupy in per
twtuity. In fact, according to the law of na
tions, treaties con only bo mail, between civ
ilized people or nations. Tho President can
not will or dispose of lands by trcatvi Con
gress alone has this power. Tho treaties were
simply agreements to allow the Indians to
cultivate lands under existing acts of Con-
peas. Tenons may cuter pre-emption and
homestead claims ou any lands not reserved
by the Government for other purposes. There
can be no valid objection to tho settlement of
these lands.
