MAKE PLEA FOR CLEANER FRUIT Denney & company, which has contracted for an enormous quan tity of black cherries In this mo tion nnd all of the cherry (flowing districts of tho valley, is launch ing ft campaign to K'.'t a clean eher ry for hltment. In a circular is sued to all growers of chcrrUn, a forerunner of other clrculaia tin company promises in connection with the cherry deal, it urge care ful work In control of tho hrovn rot and the cherry maggot, in .r der to place the Willamette valley cherry where it bel.tngs in the cherry markets of the country. The circular follows: 'Denney & company has con tracted to pack and ship a lttrit tonnage of Hings and L.imlieit from the Willamette valley. It will be to the Interests of both tho growers and shipper that the cherries be of the highest possible quality and free from such pest and fungul as are within tho con trol of the Binwr. To nwdnt the grower in following a unlfor n orchurt practice for the elimina tion of tho mala troubles, cherry maggot, synetu beello and brown rot, Denney company will Issue timely circulars covering tho best known control practice ns sug gested by the authorities at the Oregon Agricultural college. Karl Pearcy of Solcm, formerly county fruit inspector of Douglas county, and a well-known authority on pest control will be at the service of the growers shipping through this company and growers may write or call on him fur assistance at any time. "The cherry maggot, cherry slug shot hole fungus and the syueta beetle are completely within the control of the grower through well-timed spray prneMees. The last named h:w proved trouble some In some orchards however and must be handled vigoroiutty whero It h is become entrenched In a particular orchar.l. Instruc tions on the control of the cherry maggot will be Issued later as no spraying Is dono until the fruit Is nearly ripe. The chirry slug i.t easily handled by an apoleailin of 2 pounds of lead arsenate to 100 gallons of watr with the ad dition of some spreading material such, as kayso, spreado, etc. This should be applied whenever the slug appears on the leaves. It is only occjMomi'lv that this pest damages eher riot. I "Itrown rc t - i his fungus liven over tho winter in mummied cher ries burled near the surface of tin grcund under the trees. An Infec tion takes plate at bloKSom time, enuring so-called blossom Might, and later, if the weather condi tions nr- favonhle, he rot taken hold of the fruit, enpeclally ot har vest time, although in bad seasons the green fruit is attacked. Cher ry orchards should he plowed early In advance of blossoming, and frequent harrowing should take place during the bloom season to disturb the soil mummies and pre vent the spreading of tho brown rot spores. Light crops are often the result of blossom blight due lartly to nVlavcd cultivation. "Spraying A dormant applica tion of lime sulphur, now, 12 gal lons of lime sulphur to 100 gallons of water or 1 to 8, will clean up the trees of moss, II :hens and scale. Thla spray has no great ef fect on brown rot unless delayed almost to bloMSom time. If thts is dome, the application should be thinned down to 1 to 26 and ap plied Just before the blossoms op . en, or use Bordeaux 4-4-50 with a spreader. In most orchards it would pay tu make either the dor mant application or this blossom blight appllaction, although many orchards require neither. However, it la now almost too late for the dormant spray In the bulem dis trict. "The mo it Important single ap plication for the control of brown rot la made about J to 4 weeks before harvest This will be cov ered In a later circular Do not lelay cultivation In any event. Send for extension bulletin 3&0 on orchard spr.iy program for Ore gon. rile the Oregon Experi ment Station, CorvallU, Oregon. It Is free. "We believe the spray programs should be carried out very care fully, as the growers shipping wilh us, or any other firm, are vitally interested in their chevrls carry ing to markets in firtt-clasa con dition, as thin is the inltl-il step of putting the Willamette cherry on the map."
