ALFALFA SEED
FOR ORCHARDS
DEPARTMENT AGROSTOlOGIST
WOULD CULTIVATE SOIL
AROUND TREES.

That the clean cultivation. Of or
chards as practiced in the Yakima and
other valleys of Washington is a mis-
take, and that this country is partic-
uiarly suited for the production Of al
falfa seed, are two opinions expressed
by Professor c. v. Piper, agrostologist
of the United States department OF
agriculture, who has been in the Yaki-
ma valley for some time experimenting
and investigating. Prof. Piper says:
In cooperation with F. Walden,
the orchardist of Zillah. 1 am con-
Quoting some interesting experiments
with various qeguminous plants as
cover crops. 1 have long been con-
WINGED that the clean culture of or
cnards, excepting where it is neces-
take Careful experiments in the east,
where moisture is abundant have
clearly shown that orchards, allowed
to grow wee Is, or better, planted with
than those which are clean cultivated.
THE reason is two-fold. First, the
continu. US culture of an orchard de-
stroys great numbers of the small feed
ing roots Ct the fruit trees, and sec
ond, the weeds or other cover crops,
when plowed under, maintain the hui
mus in the soil and keep up the sup
Ily of nitrogen.
while Yakima soils are wonderful
ly fertile they are deficient in humus
ahd the need of nitrogen will be
quickly felt. In this valley there are a

lied and with the abundant supply
of water can be so managed that they
will reseed themselves. Among the
available plants that have been tried
are alfalfa, sweet, red and crimson
clovers, yellow trefoil and hairy vetch.
The plant selected should not be of
such character as to choke the irri-
cation channels and it should perpet-
uate itself so that reseeding is ne
cessary only at long intervals. From
my present knowledge 1 am inclined
to think that red clover, mixed with
yellow trefoil will prove most salts
factory. If desired, these crops may
be pastured, using the proper pre-
cautions to protect the trees. While
the growing of legumes in orchards
may result in the increase of the
amount of water required, 1 am con-
WINGED that the practice will be found
to be so beneficial as to be generally
adopted.
Il am greatly interested in the prop
osition to increase the crop of Ameri-
can alfalfa seed. At the present time
immense quantities are imported each
year from Europe and the importa-
tons keep increasing. All the condi-
tons are most favorable in this coun-
try for the raising of alfalfa seed and
l believe the yield would be large and
of prime quality. l see no reason why
this seed should not be raised in large
quantities in the Yakima valley and at
handsome profit to the grower"

PROF. MELANDER
CHARLIE WHITNEY,,
ASK


1t is stated that the most valuable
paper presented before a horticultural
society in this state for years was that
of Mr. G. w. Taylor. read before a con-
vention of fruitgroWers in Medford a
few days ago, the subject being the
Goblin moth. This moth and its dis
gushing progeny is pre-eminently the
pest of applegrowers. Its eXtermina-
ton has been for years the orchardist's
most earnest desire. Methods looking
to realization OF this desire have been
pursued with unfagging zeal by COM
mercial applegroWers The old family
orchard, mOssgrown, uhpruned and un-
cultivated, has been, and in many To-
calities still lis the despair of this
class of orchardists, since dozen
trees thus neglected affords safe har-
Dor for enough eggs of this prolific
pest to infect trees for miles around.
Only through the destruction of such
trees-fair examples of which may be
seen in the old Lovejoy orchard, on the
Clackamas River, short distance
north of Oregon City-in conjunction
with persistent and intelligent spray
ing, as directed by the State Board of
Horticulture, can this pest Of pests be
controlled. This statement is but
''reiteration hammered on the ear but
it will be necessary to repeat it as
long as old orchards provide safe har-
bors for the Goblin moth and as long
as careless farmers, to whom the ap-
pie crop is of minor consideration,
neglect to destroy or clean up their
old orchards.-Oregonia
