It also protects inoculation and substan tially adds to the capacity of the bacteria and plants to utilize free atmospheric nitrogen reports the experiment station. In Irrigating potatoes, the av erage amount of water giving most percentage returns In many years experiments on the station grounds at Corvallls Is 3.7 Inches per acre. The total wator consumed, Includ ing soil and rain wator, was 9.5 inches. The average yield waH 280.6 bushels obtained at a water cost of 565 pounds of total wator consumed to tho pound of dry mat ter produced. Experiments by the Oregon sta tion indicate that sulfur is an es pecially critical element In plant growth, but that only a small amount is neeessnry. Yields have been Increased and water require ments strikingly decreased by add' lng a little sulfur when this ele ment la low. A practical means of replenish lng and maintaining organic mat tor in solla in Oregon is cover crops Because of mild winters In western Oregon theso cover crops are us ually barley and common vetch, Crois for this purpose should be sown before the fall rains begin, at tho rate of 30 to 40 pounds of VL-toh and 25 to 30 pounds of bar ley. In the spring they are turn ed under. Oregon farmers usually prefer to usu limestone which contains some rock ground to a dust pow der and some which Is ground to pass through a 10 mesh sieve. The fine Ftono sweetens the soil kulckly and tho coarser material remains to keep it sweet.

The last day of which there has been any real rain was June 11, when .02 inches of moisture waa prccipi tatcd. The rain on that date mark ed the conclusion of a long wet spell which had discouraged many people of Salem, who were begin nlng to fear that there would be no dry eiiull at oil this year.

Tho third codling moth spray in Willamette valley apple and pear orchards will be due not later than AugUKt 8, according to reports from tho experiment station. The first moths of the Hecond genera tion appeared In tho rearing cage at tho atation July 2i, The maximum number of moths Is expected (hiring the first week of August. Tho egg hatching per iod will begin about August 3, nnd the peak of the hatch will prob ably be about the middle of Aug' uut. - The poison cover spray mut bo on tho foliage of tho pears and ap ples before the worms hatch if the fruit Is to be properly protected, Increasing, the dosage to five pounds of arsenate of lead to 200 ganons or water is a frequent prac tice witn this spray, if this snrav Is on the fruit nnd foliage when the new worms arrive .and begin to oat, their first meal is more than likely to prove their last. This Is the third regular codling moth spray, known to growers as the August cover spray. Its date varies -with the weather and other conditions, making it difficult for the growers to know just the right time to npply It. Tho station is able to learn the time of hatching oy ooserving motns in the breed ing cages. The information Is sent to the growers through cooperative news papers. The moth children, tho worms, are so skilful In their ef forts to see the inside of the nic est apples that It takes the com bined efforts of station. newsDan er.( and growers to keep them from doing It. With this combination woraing euecessiti iv. the worms are balked and turned to tiny bits of fertilizer on the apples or pears before they can reach the Inside or the fruit. '"ield observations are made bv me station entomology department staff members "to check" on the breeding cage estimates. The can- tive moths In the station cagca are taken from pupae transformed from worms that were in little ap ple picked up from under the trees last spring. They go thru the same changes as free worms. 3c; local cauliflower $2.00 crate; Oregon apricots $1.76 per lug; fresh parsley 60c dozen ; casabas 4c; local peaches 20c basket, water peaches $1 crate; yellow freestone peaches $1.25 crate; pep pers 22c pound; peas lc, fancy dill 15c lb.; dill size cucumbers 3 c; gherkins 8 He lb.; outdoor $l.t!0; sedless grapes 9c lb.; sweet t-oi ii i uuz, lur i.ji) iocui iieaci plums 20c basket; new cocoanuts i.ia uuz. , ii uw .ti. hi;i grapes iuc.
