STUM MiMFACTlRLNC
It ia not our parptwe to arade as
expert in the Dianufactiire of spray, an
industry exceedingly more twhuiral
than editing end publishing a iu-ws-f,ier,
when we touch on an episode of
last Saturday'a meetirg of orchardists
involving, as we think, an unwarranted
attack on J. Butcher, spray manu
facturer. Some of the growers, in their talks,
declare i that they could tr ai ufactiite
their spray, purchasing their raw ma
terials, for about half what is churgfd
for the prmiwt manufactured by Mr.
Butcher and ld through the A pule
Growers Afriation. We would uk,
have these growers figured in the cost
of their time? We believe their rests
for home-made spray will look differ
ent when they have.
And then, ore orchardist may manu
facture with his honie plant a spray
material that tray equal and excel
thai of the plar.t especially equipped
for the wirk, Imt he will he the excep
tion. Ninety-nine of his fellow or
chardistH will secure from their home
work an inferior prodtn't, gome of
them will spoil their purchases of raw
material. Now we hold no brief for
Mr. Btitchtr, nor have we spoken in
his behalf at his request.
Our comment is made in a spirit of
fairnoto. Mr. Butcher was encouraged
to bring his industry here. He w
working as hard as any Hood River
orchaniist in trying to make his busi
ness a success. Wo believe his success
is to our own interest, the interest of
the fruitgrower. We do not believe
he deserved the effects that might
result from eriticium directed at him
Saturday.
But we hope our comment w ill not
prevent any grower, if he knows what
he is about and is prepared for it,
from manufacturing his own lime
sulphur. From what we have seen of
it, howwer, Htid smelled of it, as it
was applied with the machine-gun
accompaniment of" spray machines, we
should think that contact with it in
the orchards, would suffice any grower.
WISCONSIN GETS RIGHT
Wisconsin last week sponged off the
black ni.'irk made on the state's honor
by the rebuke administered by the
state legislature to United States Sen
ator Robert M. La Follette. It was
certified thereby , that La Follette
stands condemned at home as well as
in all recesses of the nation.
The speech of Assemblyman hom i
ly, a part of which follow s., is worth
remembering.
"The state of Wisconsin is on trial
before the bar of public opinion. The
people of this state and the people of
the nation expect the legislature to
condemn and rebuke those in high and
representative places who have sought
to obstruct our government in the sue-
cessfui prosecution of the war.
'Senator Robert M. La Follette has
by his actions and his conduct brought
the fair name of the state of Wisconsin
into ill repute. The people of this na
tion will not be satisfied with any
more lip service loyalty. They expect
us and demand of us to rise to the oc
casion and publicly condemn those who
hamper us in our fight for democracy.
This much we must do ; we can do no
less. ' '

Col. Watterson's slogan in the Louis

says he is going to repeat his slogan
once every week day and twice on

Perhaps more .sentiment than ev r

a larger courtroom. After standing
for hours listening to the sensations of
a criminal prosecution, many were
heard to ssiy : "I wish this place was

FERTILIZERS FOR '
BERRIES SUGGESTED
(By Gordon G. Brown)
The writer wishes to ma We a few
brief suggestions to the strawberry
growers of the valley which he hopes
may prove interesting and wormy oi
trial. Reference is here made to the
ieruiizer nuesiion. o iue is iu uu-
f , hu alst, in
of local experience,
The necessity for dealing in princi-!
pies is especially apparent in Hood
River valley. Owing to the fact that ;
we have a big range in conditions i
within a very small area, it is practic- i
ally impossible to give such clear-cut
recommendations as will fit all cases.
Soils on which the Clark Seedling is
grown comprise several types ranging
from the lighter redshot "Parkdale
loam" of the Upper Valley to the
heaviest clay loam of Barrett. The
former ia a virgin soil, as it is com
monly called, while those in the Lower
Valley have been cropped for a consid
erable time. Naturally the fruiting
period, whether early or late, influ
ences the grower in his use of fertil
izer. It is worthy of note that in practic
ally all strawberry sections throughout
the United Statesland Canada artificial
applications of fertilizer occupy a
prominent role. It is remarkable how
unstandardized the practice has be
come. Records show profits from both
extremely heavy applications and
thos of a comparatively lighter na
ture. Heavy applications of stable
tnanure.Jhardwood ashes, Inine meal,
tankage, fish guano, dried blood, su
perphosphate, nitrate of soda and pot
ash compounds, either alone or in com
bination, form the basis of the differ
ent practices found.
In Hood River the use of nitrate of
sooa has been most prominent. The
use of Berne Brand animal fertilizers
and fish guano has also been conspicu
ous. However, the strawberry is not an
exhausting crop. The slight amount
of plant food in berries, as shown bv
Prof. L. L. Van Slyke, of the New
York experiment station, indicates that
over 9(1 per cent of Iihe entire weight
of the fruit is water. He estimates
that the approximate amounts of plant
food constituents used in producing a
crop of WOO pounds per acre, or a little
more than 4(K crates, are 7J pounds
nitrogen, : pounds phosphoric acid and
8 pounds potash. Contrast this with
the reouirementslof a 34 bushel wheat
crop which are 3H pounds nitrogen, 13
pounds potash anu J'J pounds ptiospnor
ic acid.
In view of this fact it is often ipies
tinned why is it necessary to fertilize
the strawberry? Whv do strawberries
on normally rich solis respond to heavy
applications of fertilizer? A number
of answers may be given. First of all
it is worthy of note that the strawber
ry is a very shallow rooted plant and
consequently its feeding urea IS mute
restricted. Most of its focd is taken
within a foot to IK inrhes from the
ground surface. The most satisaftoiy
and generally accepted explanation is
found in the fact that its main require
merits of fertilizer come within a com
paratively short period, namely from
lilossom period until the crop is har
vested. Its moisture requirements are
also very heavy at that time. During
a period of five to six weeks the plant
often produces as much as a quart of
berries weighing much more than the
plant itself.
Contrast this feeding habit with that
oj the apple or pear, riant loon is
taken Jf'rom a large area and at consid
erable depth. The tree has an oppor
tunity to gather its nourishment dur
ing a period of live or six months,
The strawberry grower should Keep in
wind therefore that while the straw
berry does riot require a very large
amount of fertilizer in the aggregrate
its requirements are very heavy during
a very short period when it must be in
a readily available form. Hence the
necessity of artificial applications.
The station has been experimenting
with the use ot nitrate, superphos
phate and sulfate of potash during the
past two years upon the red shot soils
at Dee. Nitrate has been usedfat the
rate of 220 pounds, one half applied in
early spring and the remainder at bios
soming season. In other tests the
whole amount hasjbeen applied in early
spring and in others at 0 ossom period
The same series of tests have been
conducted with a 440 pocnd nitrate an
plication. These weights have been
used on the basis of every 10,000 plants
fertilized. Superphosphate has been
used at the rate of 470 pounds and sul
fate of potash at 125 pounds. All the
combinations possible of these three
fertilizers have been tested. Both
tests from which averages were taken
were composed of one year old plants
of excellent vigor and umtormity.
Both were upon clover seed
Briefly, 440 pounds nitrate of soda
applied in two equal applications gave
the largest yields upon a two year
basis. This was closely followed by a
similar amount applied in early spring.
The 220 pound application put on in
two equal amounts closely approxi
mated the results tor the heavier ap
plications. Such an application ap
pears to possess some advantage over
a similar amount put on at one time
only either in earlv spring or when
blossoms are out. In the light of
yields it has not been found practical
to use either superphosphate or potash
The various combinations indicated
j above appeared to possess no advan
tage.
In the light of results to date the
writer recommends the use of not
more than 220 pounds nitrate especial
ly on rich soils or where clover has
been turned under. Larger amounts
may tend to give soft berries of poor
shipping quality, iso tests bearing
directly upon this problem have been
made as vet, however. Soft berries
prevailed last year, but this was due
very largely to tne season as well as
to the kind of fertilizer used.
i The grower of strawberries in the
I Lower Valley should make his first ap
1 plication as soon as the plant begins to
' u,u,m ,1 nnr nrr.U. Thu I Tnmi Vullou
grower should wait longer, not only
! because the season is later, but also
; because the light soils of the Upper
1 Valley may tend to allow much valu
able nitrate to be leached out if ap-
' tilled before it can he Utilized.

The Basket of Fruit
(From the Portland Telegram)
The local branch of the federal food
adminsitration department is 'about to
launch a campaign favorable to the
big Oregon apple. The boosting of
the apple is incidental. The conserva
tion of food to the gratification and
good health of the consumer is the
main purpose.
Fruit figures in the desert column,
but does it figure as much as it might?
Do we use fruit for desert as a
steady hahij. oionl,occasionally? Echo
answers, only occasionally.
We are given to other forms of the
tapering-otl' dish that require the use
of sugar- possibly more sugar than we
consume in the rest of the meal. Why
not sidestep the greater use of sugar
with the basket of fruit, the chief and
attractive feature of which should be
the Oregon apple'
In our judgment this is a splendid
campaign for the local food adminis
tration to undertake. iThe prospects of j "
its success are twofold - the healthful
ness and gratification in fruit con
sumption and the direct encourage
ment to Oregon industry that will be
afforded in the creation of a better
market for the Oregon apple. j
