Get More Profits by
Clearing More Land!
4.
Measure the Profit of
Your Stump Land Cleared!
PLAN right now to clear off more land before planting
and after harvest, too. Use the "off-seasons" to provide
for bigger profits on future crops. One crop usually pays the
entire cost of clearing and leaves a profit besides. All following
crops are clear profit.
The great land -clearing movement that swept the country
in 1920 is even stronger in 1921 farmers the country over
are clearing more land this year than ever before.
The modern way is to use dynamite for blasting out
stumps and boulders, for this method is very rapid, reasonable
in cost and leaves the land in good condition for cultivation.
The majority of farmers use
STUMPING POWDERS
Du Pont and Repauno Brands
(Pacific Northwest Product)
rhich have done and are doing highly efficient and economi
cal work in the clearing of hundreds of thousands of acres.

82K to 775. and had started off with a
lead in the first half of the next, the
locals rame to life with a venireance
andpiled up three doubles, two tur
keys, and a seven in a row, winding
up the game with magnificent 984
score, having rolled 585 in the last half
of the game.
I he third game was a see-saw affair.
not settled till the last frame was
rolled, the locals finally winning out
by 16 pins, largely owing to Alva
bherrell s "roodles. " and Green's tur
key at the finish. House got high
single game, 22f, and high three
games, 07. Nordstrom s and 543
was high for the visitors. The Long

men, (. lass 11 gets 12 handicap; Class
25, and Novice, 35 handicap per

The committee i Tonuses good eats and
a good time.
The following letter has been sent
growers by Fruit Inspector Armstrong:
You doubtless realize how important
the control of anthracnose is getting
to be in the production of clean Jorch
ards and apples in this valley. The
control of this disease will never be
obtained until orchard owners will pre
vent new infection from getting start
ed. To do this the Bordeaux spray
must be on the trees before the spores,
which are the seeds of the disease,
have germinated and grown into the
bark of the tree. These spores com
mence to fly about as soon as a good
rain has wet up the old cankers, and
will germinate and grow into the bark
of .the tree or through the skin of the
apple when the weather continues
moist for several days at a time. The
August spray of Bordeaux prevents
these early infections, but unless a
spring spray has been put on, it should
be followed by a fall spray of greater
strength to withstand the winter rains.
If your orchard has received neither of I
these early sprays it is very Important
that Bordeaux spray be put on just as
soon as possible, and 1 wish to urge
that you use every means to get it on
as fast as the apples come off. Spray
machines and material should be ready
and every opportunity taken to spray
such trees as have been picked. With
large orchards a little extra help will
be much worth while, it the spraying
can be accomplished while the picking
is being done. However, this work
must not be left to inexperienced men.
With the smaller orchards a little ex
tra time will insure the same thing.
The future welfare of your orchards is
very important, as well as that of your
immediate crop.
Help to get a thorough control of the
disease this fall by early after-harvest
praying, and by urging and assisting
your neighbors to do likewise. Plan
to get it on and then get it on.
Yellow varieties which received the
August spray should be picked as soon
as possible to avoid any possibility of
red spotting in case of excessive rain.
The Experiment Station reports that
tne spring applications of Hordeaux
and Bordeaux oil look very promising
for the control of anthracnose, and if
so will help to solve this problem.
However, more will be determined as
to this before it is time for this spray
in the spring.
