THE HOUR IS PASSING Until the buds appear, it is still time to spray with lime-sulphur solution for San Jose scale, says the Portland Journal. In the case cf peaches, prunes and cherries, the hour will soon have passed, but in the more import ant apple industry as late as April 10 is usually opportune. The reward for the work is redeem ed orchards, obliterated scale, gradual emancipation from moss and scurvy, cure for apple scab, and trees that present the pleasant appearance of thrift, cleanliness and vigor. This is the immediate reward. Later com pensatlon comes In the more remuner ative condition of fruit that the mar ket wants and is willing to pay hand somely for. To let the orchards stand unsprayed is at par with half-fed and uncurried horses, farm machinery ly ing exposed to winter rains, poorly cul tivated fields, indifference to debt and other marks of unthrift. Where pro gressive method is in vogue on the farm, the standard of living is highest and the per capita of wealth greatest. Competence and thrift seldom come to the sloven and laggard, but are re served for the man whose eyes and ears are open and his hands busy to utilize the newest and best way of do ing things. Oregon soil and climate are ready to do their Dart in the production of fruit, if only the husbandman will give them the opportunity. The world wants Oregon apples and is willing to pay the price. Three dollars a box for Hood River apples and three dollars a box for Rogue River apples last season mean splendid prices for Willamette valley appples if Willamette valley growers will bniy aid them to mature unblemished by worms and unblighted by scale.
