In the operation of a mine by means

cooling moth pest by selling his Gull

nutting a man who has the smallpox

that disease. Will a man scatter the

Orchard Problems

1t must not be thought that because
only six varieties of winter apples are
recommended for a commercial orch
ard this list contains all the good
apples there are. No two men can
be found who will agree absolutely
on the apples to be recommended for
planting. There is the Baldwin, an
old apple and famous in some Sec
tons of the country, but quite I'M
profitable in other sections. 1t is
we'll known that it specks badly in
some places. This disease is known
as the Baldwin speck." No one seems
to know either the cause or the cure.
But where it prevails the apples are
worthless. The only way we can find
out whether this disease will prevail
is to make the experiment. Before
wO do this it would be unwise to plant
this variety extensively. The North
ern Spy is a good apple in quality
but is slow in coming into bearing.
If a man is not willing to wait ten
or fifteen years for this variety to
come into profitable bearing, he would
better not plant it, Then there are
sections where this apple natures too
early in the season. There it is es-
sentially a fall apple and must be
moved at time when apples are low
in price. The same may be said of
the King. Neither the Spy nor the
King do as well east of the Cascade
range in Washington and Oregon as
on the west side of these mountains.
And this suggests what every fruit
grower must know before he can pro-
coed with perfect safety in planting
a commercial orchard-and that is
whether his location is adapted to
certain kinds of apples or not. The
Winter Banana, Smiths Cider, the
canada Red, the Hubartson, common
ly known as Hubartson's Nonesuch,
the Vandevere, sometimes known as
the Newton Spitzenberg, and hun
dreds of others are apples having
more or less merit 1t would not be
wise to plant extensively of any of
these without first studying location,
markets, time of ripening, whether
the trees are good annual bearers,
now well they will keep in or out of
cold storage, etc.
IL is good thing to consult the
men VINO are in the business of sell
ing apples. They can tell a man
what apples sell we'll and what do
not. But the grower must not be
eulded wholly by that. The apple
merchant in many cases knows but
ilttle about whether certain kinds
pear well or not and practically moth

localities to the growing of the differ

With her parents she crossed the
plains to Oregon in 1858. Later
the family went to California,
where in 1861 she was united in
marriage to Garrett Long. In 1862,
Mr.. and Mrs. Long returned to
Oregon, but year later, went to
| Washington and settled at Dayton.
In 1888 they returned to Benton
county, settling on the farm where
they have since resided, but which
was recently sold to a Washington
man. A few weeks ago, Mr.. and
Mrs, Long determined to move to
Corvallis to settle and spend their
time at ease, and with this end in
view purchased the Buxton res
idence property, which has since
been fitted up with much care for
their occupancy. Almost at the
moment when they were ready to
occupy the place, Mrs. Long, still
at the farm home was stricken
with disease. She did not live to a
realization of the plan, but at the
age of 81 years and nine months,
passed over.
