From Newberg Graphic report of
State Horticultural society meeting
at Salem.
Mr.. Hofer read a lengthy bul
interesting paper on strawberry
culture. He said there Ia no excuse
for growing a poor quality of straw
berries. and that the worst pest is a
lack of cultivation. He spoke of a
hali-acre of Strawberries that yielded
$500, and sold readily in market
that was glutted with other straw,
berries, simply because they were
Of superior quality. The quality
was secured by setting first-class
plants in the first place, followed up
by thorough, intelligent cultivation,
and marketed in prime condition.
In speaking of over-production he
said: "There is no such thing as
over production of excellence, but
there often Is an over-production of
iuferiority."
