AN ORCHARD SURVEY
OF HOOD RIVER DISTRICT

Bulletin 80 Of the oregon Agricul-
tural college experiment station, re-
Gently published, gives report Of
"An Orchard Survey of Wasco Coun-
ty," by C. l.. Lewis and r. w. Allen.
From this bulletin, which may be
had free on application to the ex-
pertinent station at Corvallis, the fol-
lowing facts are CLEANED:
In the Hood River district the or
hards average 16 acres in size. The
net returns per acre are about $500,
and as high as $500 per acre have
been realized.
Hood River valley lies between two
ranges of high hills or mountains,
open to the north where the Columbia
marks its boundary. There are three
natural divisions of the district
namely, the west side, or that part
lying between the Hood river and the
mountains to the west, the east side
lying east of the river and extending
southwark to distance of about 1C
miles from the Columbia; and south
of these extending for distance OF
10 or ~ miles is the upper valley
constituting the third division.
The elevation of the orchards near
est the river is about 200 feet. In the
main valley the altitude averages
about 500 feet. The Willow flat dis
trict averages 1910 feet, and the mid
die valley and Mount Hood districts
range from 1850 to 1000 feet.
The whole valley has an east o.
west slope, and the orchards are 10
Gated with a good exposure as t
light and air drainage.
In the Hood river valley six dis
tinct soils are found, but at Mosie
and The Dalles the orchards are most
ly of two kinds of soil. The bulletii
gives the chemical analysis of tn
soils of the different districts.
The analyses don't show a ric
soil. so far as chemistry can tell III
the soils are not rich. The nitroge
is much below the average and tn
phosphoric acid runs low

MEXICAN SUGAR GROWING.
Excellent Natural Conditions Ar
Aided by Cheap Labor.

Consul P. Merrill Griffith, Of Tam
pico. submits the following report on
land values in Mexico, and the cost OF
planting. cultivating and harvesting
the cane crop:
One of the leading industries Of
Mexico and one that has advanced
most rapidly during the last five
years, through the introduction of I'M
proved agricultural and milling ma
chinery and the adoption of more SCI
entif,c methods in the cultivation Of
the cane, is the production of sugar
There is an excellent demand in
Mexico for all sugar produced, and all
grades find a ready sale at good
prices. A few years ago the demand
among the Mexicans of the middle
and lower classes was for brown SUI
gar exclusively; now they demand also
granulated or white sugar manufac'
tured into pilons.
The amount of sugar produced de-
pends upon the character of the soil
and the location of the land. In this
section the yield averages from 20 to
40 tons of cane to the acre. The sac
charine matter from this quantity OF
cane amounts to about 65 per cent
Of the weight, and the quantity OF
white centrifugal sugar produced
from 71h to 10 per cent or from lSO
to $50 pounds of sugar to he ton.
The cane raised in most sections
of the United States has a higher
baume. usually running from 9 to 10
and the sucrose contents in prqAor-
ton. The stalks grow from 1S to II
feet high, have from 80 to S6 joints
and often measure from to s inches
in circumference at the bottom.
It has been stated by persons OF
practical experience that sugar car
be produced here for less than l CEN
gold per pound, which enables 1t tC
compete successfully in almost an!
market of the world.

and spitzenberg are the leading va
rletles. The total number Of apple
trees from one to 25 years of age was
$40, 4S5 last year. OF these Yellow
Newtowns lead with 1884 trees,
followed by Spitzenbergs with 1907
616. The balance is made up OF
some 20 other varieties.
OF pear trees there are 9152; cher
ry trees 1927; peach trees 1880
Eighty-two per cent Of the apple
| trees have been set out during the
past six years.
strawberries-Str is the
pioneer crop Of Hood River. They
are planted extensively in the young
orchards where they are allowed to
remain until the trees come into
bearing and furnish much needed
income while the orchard is growing
up and producing only expense bills.
I
The only berry grown is the Clark
Seeding, which is a remarkably good
shipper, selling the past season (19OD
as high as 1896 crate 1t is light
bearer, 175 crates being considered a
good crop. The total acreage In
strawberries at Hood River is 756. OF
this 532 acres are grown in orchards
As a result of this orchard survey
the author Of the bulletin draws
few conclusions, among which may be
mentioned the following:
From present indications, the yell
low Newtown and Spitzenberg will
continue to be the leading varieties
of apples grown;
Irrigation, which is bound to be-
come q factor In the development OF
the country must be practiced with
care. Some growers are using 1t In
such way that the tree and fruit are
likely to be injured. An average OF
one or two. irrigations will be all that
will be needed on an average in q
bearing orchard. The problem is to
use as little water ss possible.
Something must be done before
long to furnish the soils with humu'
and plant food. Cover crops are one
of the best agencies to bring about
these results.
More care should be used in the
distances and systems in planting Or
chards.
In most Of the young orchards
windbreaks could be used to advan
tage.
As to pruning, the majority o
growers do not head the trees bacl
severely enough during the first feV
! wears of their growth.
} Methods of harvesting and packin
5 are high class, but will probably b
: still further improved by the buildin

JAMES ]. HILL

SOUTHWARK INTO INTERIOR
Oregon Trunk Railway Now Being
Projected From The Dalles Is
Thought to BE a Hill Road-North
Bank VIII BE Supplied From Ore
gon Territory.

That James j. Hill Is the controll-
ing spirit behind the oregon Trunk
railway which is to penetrate CEN
tral and eastern oregon by way or
the Deschutes valley. is the firm con-
viction of number of Portlands
leading bankers and capitalists, says
the oregon Daily Journal
One of the most prominent men In
the commercial life of the city, who
is at the head of one Of the largest
exporting concerns on the coast, and
who has been closely connected with
the Hill interests since that system
lust invaded Portland territory, COM
mented on the situation today as fol-
lows:
"There is no doubt in my mind
that the oregon Trunk, or Deschutes
Valley railroad was projected by the
Hill system, and will become an Or
egon feeder Of the north bank line.
"I have known for some time that
Mr.. Hill was seriously considering in-
vading Harriman's eastern Oregon
preserves, and I believe that the or
ganIzation Of the oregon Trunk rail-
way is the first move by Hill in tho
Titanic struggle that is sure to ensue
for a division Of the eastern Oregon
freight traffic.
"The enormous acreage Of arid
land soon to be brought under irri-
CATION in eastern oregon and WASH
Ington, and the resulting increase In
the volume OF freight to be handled
ir that district is certain to stimu-
late activity in railroad building
throughout the inland empire.
"It will be recalled that just three
years ago James j. Hill was In Port
land and made the first public an
nouncement of his intention to builC
a road down the north bank Of th'
Columbia. At that time Mr.. Hill salt
that upon the completion of tn
north bank road he might turn hi
attention to the development OF east
ern Oregon by means of buildin
feeders for his new Spokane-Portlan
line.
The fact that N. w. Bethel, locat
ing engineer for the Hill system. ha
recently been at The Dalles h
northern terminus of the orego
Trunk roand, and that a large sur
veying party is working sout
through the Deschutes valley, point
strongly to the conclusion that tn
Hill people are making preparation
to begin the actual construction of
railway through central oregon.
