Bv C. C. ("ATE, County Agriculturist. Tho duties 'ol' the county putholog ist and agriculturist for the past your hove embraced uiuny phases of work along the line of agriculture nud hor ticulture. " While the primury object of the office is to work in eo-opera tion with formers and fruit growers in th,o matter of controlling and com bating the various diseases and in Reels, that affect our agricultural in dustrics, neverllieless, other phases o tuirioulture have received consid erable attenlion, as for instance, cro rotations, better seed selection, drain age, irrigation, fertilization, besides Other general agricultural practices. Diversified Crops. Our policy is to eneodrngc 1 lie de velopment of nnv agricultural pro jeet that will assist in building up or maintaining tho county's resources. There lire many crops that may be grown and marketed on a piolitabli basis in our county besides grain and fruit. The fanners need more nssis tnnce along the line of suitable di versified crops, which will net thcui greater returns on their investments. We should diminish our importations on many commodities and increase our cxporta turns. In looking over the products that are imported, we , find many things that should be grown in our county and be produced at a profit to the grower and a savinc to the consumer. Special efforts arc being made to organize the farmers of the county in order that more efficient work can be accomplished by holding regular meetings for the discussion ot every dnv agricultural problems. Organ izntion, especially along the line o co-operation, is what the fanner and fruit grower is in greatest need ot. Franklin's motto, "United wo stand divided we fall," is just as applicable today' ns' it was in his day. Many farm- loan associations are already organized and in time they will be re organized so as to serve as farmers1 .clubs for. holding meetings for the discussion of agricultural problem Invasion of Pests, Within the last few years apple and pear scab has invaded the valley and has caused large losses to many or chardists. The orchardists were no familiar with its habits and rapidit t of dissemination, and consequent! f did not realize (lie necessity for im '; mediate control measures, with thi h result that many crops were serious y damaged. Last spring and sum mer much time was allotted to the control of scab, and where instruc i" tions were followed in smayin; amount of seubbly fruit was smn ! Some experimental spraying wa J conducted in order to determine the S best spray materials for controlling X sonb. The lime and sulphur gave tin ?! most uniform and- reliable result j However, it was found that later ii; the season when there is danger al burning the fruit and foliage by the !v use of lime nnd sulphur, self-boiled "5 lime and sulphur can be substituted y with .equally good results. The control of the codlin moth was also given considerable attention. V This pest is familiar to all, since it ?-. is one of our oldest and most de structive pests ot the apple and pear. To insure its control it is necessary to sprnv thoroughly and nt tlic proper time. Unfavorable weather at the time of spraying is the cause of many larvae entering the fruit. Considered generally, the amount of fruit culled i due to codlin moth iniurv was small. : Control ot Wight. 2 Our old enemy, fire blight, is still with us nnd will continue to be more or less of n nuisance, but indications i are that it is on the decrease. The ?! :K southern part of the valley was quite ;V;frec from blight this last season, y y where in IflLI there was a verv scri- 'ous outbreak. This fact is attributed the efficient root inspection prac- cd since that lime. A few districts t in Hie northern part of the valley were mi nnrucr nun nil? can tie muium'-u f root inspect ion. The Hectors have been nam at j. iwork this fall locating and aiding the Wchardist in his blight work, and ev- ;.ery effort will be put forth this win iter to get a thorough clean-up. experiments conducted in the Klam ath orchard for the ,pat two years! it was found that sulphur applied about the roots of the trees acts us u repellant to insects, and by its use root blight will be a lesser problem. In generul, our methods of con- olling insect pests and plant dis- ases compares favorable to those ot Iher districts. l'uct and Figures. Iluring the past year eighteen pub- meetings weie held, with a total tlendunce of So."). Seventy-one :iernioiueters were tested. One hun dred and twenty moisture tests were udc. Fourteen orchardists were ns ted in gelling legume inoculation iilturcs at reasonable prices. In the ruit ripening .tests a total ot J a ests were made. From this work some valuable results were obtained Inch can be taken advantage of the ommg year. -No less tnan iumu peo ple called at the office for informa tion on various matters, of which umber 1054 were engaged in some me of agriculture, During sue lrost season there was a total of 1331 phone calls, the largest number for one night was Hi). The total other phone calls in were 1411 and 1280 ut. A total ot 044 letters were mailed und f7'J received, and 8-10 ulletins and circulars were distrib- tcd. To bo of the greatest service to 11 agricultural interests it is of ut most importance that we have their co-operation at all times. If you have found either through observa tion or experimentation something new (hat may be of value, tell it to us, so that we can pass it on for the general good of others. Tell us your troubles; if wo cannot assist you di rectlv, perhaps wo can get in touch with experts on just that subject. Wo do nut pretend to know everything, however. We are iu a position to ob tain information from the department of noriculture, state experiment sta tions, the agricultural colleges nnd practical men engaged in the various agricultural pursuits. Suggestions as to how this office can be of greater service are always welcome. Fair criticisms are also invited. Col.
