BULLETIN TELLS OF DISEASES OF The more important diseases of strawberries are described In a re cent bulletin termed by the United States department of ngrleulture as I'll rm era' Bulletin 14.r8 together with an account of such control methods na are of proved value sayfl the California Fruit News. The great variety of conditions under which the strawberry Is grown necessitates diffoiont metli ods of culture and ha lulling. Mcth oda of control or tttrawuerry dis eases must be adapted to locul conditions. Severe attacks of leaf diseases leaf-spot, Bcorch and mildew may bo controlled by spraying or dust ing. Often, however, frequent re newal of strawberry patches or the use of resistant varieties will serve to keep tht'Ke diseases in check. The diseases caused by nema todes may be avoided by planting strawberries in soil which Is free from these pests. Infected land may be freed from nematodes by uiree-year rotation with immune crops. Fruit rots may be reduced by proper mulching. Careful handling and adequate refrigeration will greatly lessen the losses from rots which occur after picking. A copy of the bulletin may be secured, ns long ae the supply lasts, oy writing to the United States de partment of agrlculturo, Whshing- u. u. ton, METHOD OF PICKING CHICKEN STARTS ROW , San Francisco, Oil., Oct. 2fi (A. P.) Radical differences on (ho correct method of picking n chicken brought G. G. Dclhon'.a, Oakland chicken picker, to the uakland receiving hospital. It all happened at the Oakland chicken pickers' union ball. Del- bonta Instated that the orthodox way to pick a chicken was to start at the right center instead of the lower left center. Proponents of correct picking proceeded to make the foul hers fly Delbonta was sadly vanquished in the more direct method of argu ment. CRANBERRY SPECIAL TO TAKE BERRIES TO MARKET Ilwaco, Wash., Oct. 2fi A special ranberry train Is run every day from points In l'aclflc county. Washington, to toko the cranber ries to the markets.

APPLES IN CANADA Tlie present commercial apple crop In Canada Is estimated to bo 10:t per cent of 1024 or 2,860,336 barrels, and 76 per cent of a five- year average, according to a re cently Issued estimate of the Ca nadian department of agriculture as reported in the California Fruit News. Conditions in British Columbia are shown to be better than antlcl paled enrlior In the season. The commercial crop In Ontario Is es tlmated nt 1,190,886 barrels as com pared with (18-1,810 barrels In 1924.
