THE FRUIT IN JOSEPHINE
The Possibilities of Fruit Raising in This Portion of
Southern Oregon.

crates of strawberries, raspberries
and blackberries to supply the local
trade. Many of these berries are
shipped from California points, this
home market is an opportunity that
should be taken advantage Of by small
fruit growers living in this county,
as there is no place on the Pacific
coast where berries of all kinds can
bs grown better than we can grow
them in Josephine county. In place
of importing berries Of all kinds,
each year for domestic use. we should
supply our home market with homo
grown berries and export large quan-
titles to Sound cities and Interior
markets. Our climate and soil is so
we'll adapted to the berry industry,
the want in this respect OF the home
mar ket should not any longer be neg
lected. A few small strawberry
growers around Grants Pass have de-
monstrated that with water for irri
cation. this fruit eau be kept bearing
through tho season from May to
November. But few acres in eight
or 10 miles of Grants Pass planted
to berries and irrigated would give
employment and good living to q
large number of energetic families
Many may say the want of water
would prevent many people from en-
gaging in berry growing.
There is not 40-acre tract of land
in Josephine county but what an
abundance of water can be had by
digging wells and with cheap gaso-
line or electric power 1t is prac tical
and money making scheme to dig the
wells and use the water. Especially
il this true when it is known that one
acre intelligently handled with
water to irrigate with will, during a
year, produce 10 times as much as
without.
To illustrate, dwell Bros. of Cen
tral Point-commeroia apple growers
have made u success growing apples
without irrigation. These successful
men do not allow themselves to drift
they keep ON doing things.
