Hood Klvcr mhih Denies. o
Tl,.. fnlli.wiiiu article ntiiieaied in the
Practical Fruit Wrowcr, Springlield, Mo.
and was written by Henry T. Williams
an extensive fruit grower in Arkansas
and Colorado, who has been sojourning
in our valley for the past three months
Vl...n.ii.r line L'oes ill the Northwest
at the proper time of the year, in sprin
i... .. ill in,, I in all the stores of every
neighborhood one sign: "Jlood liiyt
Strawberries." I nderneatli that sig
a w niithered in crates some of the most
tempting sights in beautiful strawberries
that a person ever beholds. In little
souare iioxes, holding just about a pound
each, or a little less than n quart, are ar
ranged in regular rows, just like applet,
face sid up, large, handsome, firm dark
red berries, of most inviting appearance.
All crates tire packed alike, all boxes
fared, all berries the same color, one var
iety only every w here alike, every day,
all the season. ' That sign w herever dis
played settles the fate of every strawber
ry from every other part of the country.
No other berry can be sold with favor
but this one variety, and from but one
place the true home of its adoption
Hood Hiver, Oregon.
There are certain peculiar merits con
nected wilh this berry and the locality
where raised Which makes it unlike
imv other variety, so exceedingly ililti-
cuft of imitation or of competition that
it constitutes a chanter in horticulture
very remarkable. This variety is called
tbeClnrk's Seedlinu. It has been tried
in other nlaces. west and east, in other
... 1 .J n,r I .4.. .C. , l.llt.1Ci i
en.wnhere. The same variety is
like itself when removed from here to
imv other sectim.
I'lureitisa lanze, firm berry, solid,
deen red colored, flesh to the centre, so
firm and its skin so close and tough that
it ill carrv for i avs in open crates w lth
out anv chanire or variation, and so solid
in its character that when canned it re
tains its color, form, solidity and flavor
so perfectly that it can he taken trotn
the cans and placed on the table in
lieurlv the same perfect appearance
has when gathered fresh ; so it Is'comes
the ideal favorite of households for can
ning and preserving; and home canned
lieTrios can be called upon all the year
for either strawberries and cream, short
cake or any other of the uses that straw
berries have. In canning it retains its
firmness, not breaking the skin, the ler-
rv does not dissolve into mush nor the
juice leave the fruit and spread all
throiiL'h the can. However, the uses
and the demand for it fresh for the table
are such t hat not enough are raised to
meet the demand, and while it lasts no
ciiini.etition is able to displace it and
none liills it place. It seems to have
found a tilace of its ow ti and fills it to
perfection.
The profits from its culture are most
enroll railing. I have never seen straw
berrv fields on the face of the earth fill
tivated with such rare and attention as
the best fields receive here. Straight
rows are run in one direction and as
straight ones across them in another,
and at the intersection a plant is set. As
much care is used in putting them out
as if it was an orchard, and if yon stand
in any position you w ill find the plant
in rows all ways, lust like trees are
placed, in the same beautiful regularity
These rows are kept constantly cultivat
ed one way bv horse cultivators m row
L"., feet apart, the other way by hand
cultivators, rows 15 to IS inches apart
All plants are kept in hills. No runners
are allowed to form. While picking the
pickers are instructed to pinch every
runner off. After the crop is gather'
the grower has a large circular eutte
with sharp edge and long handle, whir
lie uses ireqiiently, going up and now
the rows, w hich he lifts and sets dow
forcibly over every plant and cuts off all
runners starting around. The liills are
preserved for four, five or even six years
but usually four years is considered the
limit of profitable grow th. The number
of plants or hills per acre is usually 15,-
000 to 1 1,0 0.
All growers use water for irrigation.
Constant cultivation and irrigation is
kept up until the time for picking comes,
but irrigation is not excessive and does
not make the berries soft. When well
cultivated the hills average one box or
pound each, which, if that proportion
were kept up over a field, would be (00
crates of 24 box each per acre. In
practice the best yields are :00 crates, or
a trifle over for the best places, and the
common average is 150 crates per acre.
The picking is done by Indians, who
come here i-i large numbers from nearby
reservation, and do the picking for 1 la
cents per quart. Those who face the
berries receive S rent er quart. The
berries are often very uniform and can
lie packed in rows in the box, similar to
apples, and the top layer is always laid
in regular rows. Ticking lasts from four
to six weeks, owing to difference in ele
vation where raised. The country is
loud and picturesque in color. Kvery
Indian wears a multi-colored blanket
ami every squaw a bright shawl.
. Prices are very extraordinary. The
honor of having the first U-rries from
Hood Kiver is coveted by many places,
but usually Seattle gets the first crate,
The price sold at there is usually50 rents
per pound box. The first rrate this sea
son brought the grower $12. Puring the
the first week growers received a net
average pric of $5 per crate, ami the

the result might have been serious. Hut for
