URGES BETTER PACK
PREDICTS BIG CROP
The State Board of Agriculture met
in Portland last week and President
W. K. Newell read his annual report
to the board. He predicted a big crop
this year and also urged the growers
of Oregon to better their apple pack
which showed a slight falling on in
quality last year. Following is the
report:
"Once more has the time arrived for
taking account of fruit crop prospects
and conditions. Judging from the
looks of the trees in those Sparts of the
state which have been able to visit
this Spring, if we have favorable
weather all through blooming time, we
will surely have a bountiful crop of
most all kinds of fruit this year,
Whether Buch hopes are well grounded
or not, I believe the impression exists
in most ail 01 the Iruit growing sec
tions of the country that this year
to be a year of big fruit crops.
bach succeeding year in Oregon
shows better general care of the
orchards, and though the past winter
was a very difficult one in which
accomplish the usual Winter work, it
was compensated lor by the beautiful
month of March which allowed the
work to be brought up to date. In
many sections the blooming season
nearly over for the early fruits,
others it is just at hand, and with no
reports of injury or damage of any
Kind as yet.
A. noticeable feature of the past
Winter has been the great number of
fruit growers' organiaztions that have
been formed. Almost every community
in which there is any activity o
orcnaru-pianting now has its associa
tion. Many of them will have but
small amount of fruit to market for
year or two, but they will do splendid
work in having uniform methods of
planting adopted, in guiding their
members in the selection ot proper
varieties and in the purchase of all
kinds of supplies. And of even more
imjiortance than any of these, they
will learn the habits of working to
gether and of subordinating their in
dividual preferences to the will of the
majority.
"Ihe year 1909 marked the begin
ning of what I believe will grow to be
a great industry, and that is the pro
duction of grape juice on a commercia
scale, tne ixmcoru grape is superior
to an others tor the production ot fine
juice and this grape succeeds admirably
on tne rootnills ol western Oregon.
rive thousand gallons ot this juice
that is the equal of anything on the
market is just now being bottled and
distributed to the trade, and is meeting
with a ready sale.
This company paid from $115 to $40
a ton last season for the grapes and
they tell me that they can pay $.'jf)
the coming season and for the future
if other conditions are not materially
different. The grape industry has been
slow of development because of the
lack of certain market : the local mar
kets were easily overstocked, and other
markets could not be reached, but with
a certain market and at an attractive
price, the industry will grow rapidly
and can be increased enormously.
"The matter of Federal legislation
relating to the apple industry has
attracted our attention during thi
past winter, and from present indica
tions will need further attention before
the case is finally settled. The La
lean bill, which has been before
CongrtM the present session, seeks
to accomplish two main objects; to
standardize the packages used in inter
state commerce, and to standardize the
system of grading and marketing the
fruit. 1 he reason for the agitation in
this direction is that there has been
confusion in the markets from the use
of four different styles of barrels in
the Eastern States, and from the use
of one size of box in Colorado and
another from the Pacific Northwest
and Calif jrnia. Absolute lack of any
rules of grading whatever in the
average Eastern barrel-packed fruit
also caused discussion.
"The objects sought to be obtained
by the supporters of the bill, who are
principally the commission dealers and
retail grocery men of the Eastern
cities, are laudable, but it seems very
improbable that the bill, if passed and
enforced, would accomplish the result
desired, ho objectionable were the
terms of the bill to the growers of the
Northwest, that it was found necessary
to send representatives to Washington
to protest against it. C. K. Whisler,
ot Medford; J. A. Wilson, of Hood
River, and myself represented Oregon
and I.. H. Monroe, of Spokane and J
A. Tichenal, of Wenatchee, appeared
lor Washington.
"The standard apple box provided
in this bill contains IMl cubic inches,
which is 170 inches more than our pre
sent box contains ; the contention be
ing that our box does not contain a full
bushel, or, as the retailer puts it, it
will not measure out four heaped
pecks such as he must deliver when
he sells by the peck or half peck.
I his is a very important point, as we
tound on careful investigation of the
markets of all the cities which we
were able to visit, that our apples were
being discriminated against to a mar
ked BMfMM DO tins account.
"While we were able to demonstrate
to the full satisfaction of the com
mittee on agriculture, before whom
th" hearing was held, that our box when
Pftcktd honestly and carefully would
mensure out four heaped pecks, yet we
were tillable to find any boxes on the
regular market at Washington that
would mensure full quanity. This was
the weakest point in our opposition to
the bill and it was very mortifying to
have it caused by the carelessness of
our own growers.
"There has been very general com
plaint from the dealers and consumers
in the Eastern markets that our fruit
this year was not up to the standard,
either in pack or quality. We set to
high a standard in foiiner years and
secured such splendid prices on account
of it thai even a slight falling oir is
very noticeable ami brings a strong
protest. Careful invest igation showed
us that this complaint was justified to
a large extent. 1 wish to urge as
strongly as possible upon our glowers
that such n policy will not do, that it
will be lucidial. Only fruit of high
quality and absolutely Inmost pack
can be marketed successfully against
the strong competition to tie met in
the Eastern market.
"We are much indebted lo M. 0.
Lownsdale and to the Hood River and
Wenatchee fruit unions for the boxes
of splendid apples which they so kindly
donated for our use in demonstrating
to the committee on argiculture. The
committee members appreciated them
also."
TOP GRAFTING IS
OFTTIMES NEEDED
That there is much value to the horti
culturist in top grafting and that the
best time to plan this is late winter,
is the opinion of Prof. H. E. Van
Deman, the horitcultural expert, who
gives some good suggestions along
mis one.
He says it is true beyond all doubt
that there is scarcely a farm where
any fruit trees are grown that there
are not some that would be gladly ex
cnaiigeu ior some mat are Detter in
variety. Some are poor bearers, and
others that do bear well produce fruit
that is not desirable. Trees that are
not so old as to be feeble and declining
should not be sacricfied by digging
them out, and they may be made to
yield many crops of good fruit, pro
vided they are grafted over to such
varieties as are suitable and if the work
is done prorwrlv and at the rieht time.
The first requirement is that the tree
be healthy and vigorous. It does not
pay to top-fgaft a tree that is weakly.
The scions will not take well nor will
they grow well afterwards, should they
unite witn tne stocks.
Z The next essential is good scions
1 hey must be cut from vigorous trees
such as are making a foot or more of
annual growth. Only the wood of the
last year's growth is fit for use, and
that with large, well developed buds is
the kind that is best. If they are
damaged by the severity of winter they
are not fit. The sooner they are cut
the better after the leaves fall in
autumn, but any time during the mild
weather, up to the time there is danger
of the buds swelling will do, provided
their vitality is normal. Scions will
keep in any damp cool place, and they
must not be allowed to dry in anv
degree or to get warm. The latter
condition will cause the buds to swell
and that will ruin them.
In the sawdust of an icehouse is a
good place, or buried in the soil where
the sun's rays cannot reach them.
Various kinds of trees may be grafted,
but the apple and near are the easiest
of the ordinary fruit trees. Almost
any two varieties will grow upon the
other, but a very thrifty kind upon a
slow grower does not work verv well.
It is much better to reverse this
order. The stone fruits are much
i i i , i , .i ,-i
nanier to grait, nut tney duq very
easily. Peach trees are never grafted,
nut cherry, apricot and plum trees are
mucn more easily made to unite in
this way. It is better to do the graft
ing very jaarlr on them, or else hold
the scions In cold storage and do it
very late by the bark graft method.
