Strawberry Nomenclature
(F. A. Cowell, Lakebay.)

That the strawberry, under different
soil, climate and tillage conditions,
varies widely is well known, but a
Puget Sound Originator" recently did
himself proud by asserting that while
these had much to do with the behav-
ior of a variety, surroundings" had
still more to do with the matter and
essayed to illustrate the point by stat
ing that with him and a neighbor the
Kansas was worthless until the neigh
Dor chanced to plant another sort next
to it, This was what he meant by
Surroundings" He went so far as
to assert that the Kansas is perfect
blossom sort I never grew the Kan
sas, but all the catalogs in which |
have seen it listed say it is pistil-
late and any child who knows what
strawberry is knows an imperfect bios
som requires fertilization by BIZ
sexual sort. surroundings" is good.
This breeder" went further and
accused me of copying descriptions of
blossoms of varieties on my place from
catalogs, saying varieties behave diff
ferently in different localities, which
last piece of information is as old
as the strawberry itself, while the first
mentioning single line that | had
copied but maintains a discreet
silence.
But this brings me to point OF in
terest to all strawberry growers,
namely, nomenclature. Numerous
sorts are floating around under two
or more names, while, if "OriginatOrs"
and introducers are to be believed,
then we surely have many other sorts
that are being sent out under dupli-
cate names. For instance, the Corsi-
can was originally sent out by
Rochester, N. Y, house as Green's
Big Berry," Then the intrOducer
called it "Corsican," now it is also
out as Armstrong" and "Maxiums."
While bought it under the names of
Corsican and Armstrong, l know of
but one nurseryman who has it listed
under both these names-and that is
Crawford, and he offers Armstrong by
the 100, while only able to supply
Corsican in small lots. That's one
on "the old vet!" Now, the intro
ducer sent it out as having been
brought over from Germany and
grown by Mr.. Armstrong, of Roches-
ter. Other Rochester houses later
gave it his name.
Crawford himself announces that as
there are two Success" strawberries
out he has none to offer for sale. He
1t was who irregularly introduced
Downing's Bride, unnamed, and it was
later named Downings Bride, but soon
after that the originator concluded to
call it Kitty Rice, and Kitty Rice it is,
as we'll as Downing's Bride.
Then there's the Klondike, both
carly and late, distinct varieties.
Crawford also lists two everbearers,
Arizona and Mexican A California

ington." One of these names wash
ington) may be said to be generic,
and as surplus titles fall off as easily
by use as Senator Dunlap" becomes
plain Dunlap" if there are really
four varieties of the Washington and
all good ones, what mix-up we will
have some day. In some cases it GER
tainly looks as tho the intention
of the originator or introducer was to
filch the reputation of well known
variety to boost new one. These
christeners ought to "get together"
and then perhaps few of the surplus
names of the "Corsican" might be
spared for some variety that is now
burdened with only one-quarter of a
name.
Why is it that a grower keen enough
to originate new variety is not clever
enough to originate a new name to
go with it?
AS to climatic effect, there is the
ST. Joseph, soft, sweet, small, which
here bears all summer, but is reported
in New York and Virginia to be no
good at all after the regular season.
The Oregon Everbearing is here also
an everbearer of an alleged Alpine
type, which does it's best in high alti-
tudes, but does not do well in Ohio
without irrigation, while in Michigan
it falls fiat after the regular season.
Enhance is not listed as a fall cropper,
but one Michigan grower has reported
repeated fall crops from it. Mexican
Everbearing is credited with being
an all-summer berry under irrigation
in California and Arizona, but with
me it does not show a sign of blossom
after the regular season, and while
some sorts require three years to be-
come acclimated here, I have had 1t
two seasons and got it from the state
experiment station. Yet it is reported
as an everbearer in Ohio. Some sea-
sons Sharpless and Jessie produce a
light fall crop here, while Kitty Rice
(imper.) blossoms every fall, and If
next to perfect-blossom sorts that also
blossom, will produce considerable
nice glossy fruit, and to show that 1t
is not wholly helpless both 1t and
Sample have produced berries when
not close to perfect-blossom sorts.
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1905-04-01

And here's Puget Sounds Oregon
Everbearing, which has come to be
known, for simplicity's sake, as Ore
gon, and it has to help launch boom
for a New Oregon" which is also as
serted to be fall cropper, and the
"introducers" were not ignorant of the
existence of the "old" Oregon.
Again, there's Washington's Favor

plant grower who has had both de-
clares they are identical.
Then we have Gaudy and Lester
Lovett, of which "you pays your money
and takes your choice" tho some
growers still insist that the higher
priced Lester Lovett is better than
Gaudy ever dared be, yet the intro
ducer of both now practically con-
fesses that their identity is the same.
One extensive grower taxes him with
having sent out Gaudy under several
other names at long prices.

Spraying for Peach Twig Borer.
BY F. Walden.

A. c. Tedford, of Wenatchee, writes,
under date of March %, as follows:
What do you consider the best spray
for peach moth or twig borer and
best time to be applied? I have a
bulletin from the experiment station
at Pullman. 1t advocates kerosene
emulsion, but several here say 1t is
no good although have sprayed with
it this spring."
I am sorry that the above query did
not come to hand sooner. 1t is now
too late to spray successfully for the
peach twig borer. 1t has been settled
beyond a doubt that the failure in
fighting this insect is owing more to
the time when it is done than to
