the orchard and checks the radiation.
We have several times tried smudging
in our peach orchards but never Sc
cured any benefit owing to the fact
that the smoke would not remain over
the orchard but fioated away. We have
secured better results by burning, all
through our peach orchard, punches
of sage brush or old dry rails. These
fires generated enough heat to keep up
the temperature from five to eight de-
grees higher than prevailed away from
the influence of these fires. Where
our peach orchards are situated |
would prefer dry heat produced in
this way to the smudge.
While speaking of fighting frosts in
the peach orchards, it may be we'll to
call attention to the fact that peaches
can not be successfully grown in all
locations, even in what is known as
the peach belt At least some locali-
ties are much better than some 9th
ers. A fiat country can not be con-
sidered a good peach country except
in some cases that I will soon call
attention to- Good peach land must
have what our best horticulturists call
frost drainage" 1t is well-known
fact that cold air is heavier than
warm air. For this reason the cold
air is always seeking the lower levels
If peach orchard, therefore, is on
high land the cold will drain away
and thus frosts are often avoided. Put
your peaches on the highest land you
have if you would escape frosts.
Outlines we have had the high parts
of our peach orchard full of peaches
while the lower parts would not have
any For the same reason we have
had plenty of peaches in the tops OF
our trees some seasons, while the low
err limbs were without any. The same
thing can sometimes be noticed in ap-
pie orchards. Last year we had
hard frost the 29th of April, which
cleaned out all our peaches on low
and level land, while on our higher
trees there was an enormous crop. We
have some Jonathan apple trees that
have been set twelve years. Part of
them are on level land and part on a
hillside The past season the trees on
the level land were almost destitute
of apples, while those on the hillside
were very full Some ether varieties

than. Right by the side of these JON
athans that were killed were some
Winesaps that were planted at the
same time and yet~we had to thin
the Winesaps and then gathered from
some of the largest trees twenty boxes
to the tree. AS the Jonathans sold
for $500 per box and the Winesaps
$210, it can be seen what was our
loss by frost on the Jonathans on the
fiat.
There are some localities where
peaches are rarely injured on low flat
land. This fact is sometimes used
to prove that our ideas of frost drain
age are incorrect But we do not ac-
cept the conclusions in such cases.
The reason why the peaches escape on

Consider
INEQUALITY

A good tree at a fair price is
cheaper than a tree of questionable
worth as a gift. The cost of tree
is not measured by the few cents
you first pay for it.; the time spent
in bringing it into bearing and the
interest on your land are much
larger factors.
The trees we grow are superior
in every respect. Our Nursery is
in the heart of the Yakima Reserya-
tion isolated from old orchards or
forests, hence free from pest or
contamination This with the ex-
ceedingly fertile virgin soil and
fine climate enables us to put on
the market trees not only clean and
healthy, but possessing a splendid
root system that brings them into
early bearing, the prime essential
for the commercial orchardist.
If first-class quality, prompt serv-
ice, courteous treatment and care
full, systematic handling of your Or
ders are worth considering, we
want your business.

L all WlIIlIS JuoSt uOCcS III tuS col
ly part of March. The outlook TO
a good fruit crop is fine. The trees
have passed safely through the winter,
not having been damaged by freezing.
Some kinds of fruits may be injured
in the bud by severe freezing. This is
generally true of the stone fruits such
as peaches, apricots, nectarines, plums
including prunes and cherries. Some
kinds of stone fruits kill more easily
in the bud than others. Peaches will
kill to some extent at ten degrees be-
low zero, and at 20 below very few,
if any, will survive. Apples will not
kill in the bud by-freezing unless it
is cold enough to kill the limbs also.
When we have an unusually warm
spell of weather in the winter and the
buds swell considerably and then
cold spell follows, buds and limbs will
kill at much higher temperature than
those mentioned above. Owing to this
fact an idea prevails more or less,
that a mild winter is apt to result in
damage to fruit buds and especially
to the stone fruits This all depends
on how warm it has been when the
cold snap comes on in the spring Mild
weather does not make fruit buds ten
der unless growth is started. Some
persons have recently been quoted in
the papers as saying that cold weather
is necessary in order to insure a fruit
crop. Except as above stated there
is no truth in such statements. Cold
does not in any way help fruit buds and
they are no harder because they have
passed through freezing weather. We
may fully expect peach buds to be un-
injured if the thermometer does not
go below zero, unless they are greatly
swollen.
There is another idea prevalent that
has but little support, and that is that
if peaches and other fruits bloom
early they are more likely to be killed
by late frosts than when they bloom
late What makes early blooming
makes the whole season earlier. My
observation has been that we lose our
peach crop about as often when the
spring is late as when it is early. If
the spring is late the snow remains
low down on the foot hills and as a
consequence the nights are cool and
frosts prevail. If the nights are cloudy
frosts will not occur. Why? Because
the earth absorbs the heat during the
udy anu GIVES IL Oil NY IduldIlOl uuI-
ing the night. Anything that will
check this radiation tends to keep the
earth warm. Clouds do this and the
earth does not give up it's absorbed
heat as rapidly on cloudy nights as on
clear ones. 1t may have been noticed
that sun strokes and prostrations from
heat are much more frequent when the.
weather is what is called "muggy"
than when it is clear. The reason is
that the moisture in the air checks
the radiation from the perspiration on
the human body and thus the heat is
retained. The same principle obtains
when the nights are cloudy and the
air lin the orchard is kept warmer.
Here is where the benefit from smudg-
