This week I will endeavor to give
blackcap growers a little of my per­
sonal experience In growing black­
caps, hoping that from this- others
may gather a few thoughts that may
be of benefit to them. We hope to
have other growers give their ex­
perience and observation In yfuture
art idea
"• #-,.»«■ • *
We used to raise blackcaps in
our methods and resulta were en­
tirely different from what they are
in Oregon. We did not prune the
canes in any way that I recall. Not
much effort was made to cultivate or
care for them other than to nsulah
with straw or fertilise with manure.
Ae a result we would have berries a
few years and! then the vines would
die out. Of course we raised them
there merely as a side line as that
was no berry state.
Since coining to Oregon eleven
years ago blackcap growing haa been
my special hobby or business Just as
you choose, to call It. A small patch
was on the place when we bought It.
We never knew for sure Just
what variety they were but as
they proved to be as good as any
wa are still raisin« them. Have
been told that they are Cumber lend.
As they have been making some phe­
nomenal records the past few years
it may be of Interest to some to knew
how these resulta are obtained.
To be frank with you I must admit
Just how the
th at I do .not
yield of 4000 pounds per sere In
1910 and 4400 pounds In 1081 were
secured.
^ Several things are certain. Va­
riety did not do It alone ss the earns
variety In another location fbr sev­
eral years did not approach thaee
flguses but ones. Among other thiagrs
that are certain are the following:
Pruning, cultivating, fertilising, or
location alone, did not make the dif­
ference as Is proved by another va­
riety statadlhg by the side of them
and treated In' the asms way, which
produced leas than half the above
yield during the same years. It Is
evident that here Is a good field for
further investigation to prove Just
what Is required to secure heavy
yields It is my personal opinion

MUSIC AND MAN
Music is as old as the rsce. Jubal
the son of Lantech “was the father
of such ss handle the harp and the
pipe’’ and he lived before the flood.
Music, both vocal and Instrumental,
has always figured largely In the re­
ligious life of man. Not only have
the pagan nations Worshipped to
the accompaniment of music, but
Israel gave to th e world the system
of psalmody In which they expressed
musically their praise to Jehovah.
The harp, the paaltry and an instru­
ment of ten strings were their favor­
ite instruments. The most majestic
seraphic note ever struck was the
song of the angels at the advent of
Jesus Into this world. It was only
fitting that so Joyful s message
should be accompanied by joyful
notes. Christianity of today is the
only religion the music of which is
Joyful. Heathenism knows only the
minor strain, whilst the msjeptle
hymns of Christendom find no place
in the ritual of the Jews who ever
mourn s race dispersed rather than
a race redeemed. The best Is none
to good for the church of Christ and
Newberg is to be treated to a mu­
sical feast aa part of the revival
meetings being conducted at the
Christian church. The Ross Evan­
gelistic company are musicians of
the first water. Mr. Roes Is a fine
singer, a good director of choral
music and a violinist of some merit.
Mrs. Roes is always able to make the
strings of< the ’cello speak a message
