Editor The Ranch:
Replying to the inquiry made on
page q of The Ranch of March 1, | will
express my views as follows:
How many bushels of artichokes
can be raised to the acre?
From five to ten tons, according to
ground, moisture and cultivation.
Value for hog food, about same as po-
tatoes. They will keep hogs growing
and in good condition, but will not
make them fat enough for market. If
fed alone quality of the pork will be
poor and tough; fed with grain they
make good pork and save on the feed
bill Artichol1es spread the same as
potatoes, but it takes less pounds of
seed to the acre as they have more
eyes. Here in Central washington
they sometimes go to blossom, but |
think the season is too short to allow
them to go to seed. If corn is. fed
alone it will take about 1900 pounds
to make the pig dress 800 pounds. The
Berkshire could be brought to that
weight at about six or eight months
of age if fed variety of fOod-skim
milk. shorts, etc., and corn to the
finish.

MILLIONS N
FRUIT INDUSTRY
SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGEN
COMMENTS ON RECENT FRUIT
STORY PUBLISHED IN DAILY
WORLD /.

The Wenatchee World publishes an
interesting interview with one of the
prominent fruit-growers in that rich
irrigated section of Chelan county,
says the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
He estimates that the fruit crop for
the year 1908 will bring the orchard
lists about one million dollars. He
figures that there is only one acre
in bearing now where the county will
have ten in full fruit four years
hence At that rate the probable
income from fruits will be 100000
900 for the farmers and orchard
lists of Chelan county after the trees
have had four years growth. Under
such conditions it is asserted that
the city of Wenatchee should con-
tain approximately 10000 people
within five years.
There are wonderful possibilities
in fruit growing. 1t seems that the
work has hardly made beginning in
any district except possibly the val
leys of Yakima and Wenatchee.
Wherever irrigation can be carried on
during the dry summer months the
trees and fruits grow to perfection.
There are markets for all that comes
from the trees and vines every month
in the year. No shipping point lacks
in having orders, and no consuming
center complains of being oversup-
piled with the products of orchards
and vineyards. People want the
fruits, green, dried and canned. There
are demands for jams, jellies and
juices in all forms.
II the fruit industry in Chelan
county will be worth $1O,OOO,OOO in
four years from date, what can be
expected as the returns in fruits from
the entire state? 1t is easy to ire
dict that within few years, at least,
money to the producers than any
source of income in the state. That
is not surprising when it is known
that men harvest crops from yousg
orchards that bring $1,000 an acre.
II does not seem impossible, when
scores of men are getting better re-
turns from five-acre tracts planted
to fruits, and putting more money
in tf c banks every year than it is
pOSSsE16 10 get IrOW the ordinary
methods of farming a quarter Sec
ton of land.
Intensive agriculture has solved
the problem of how to makes money
on the farm. 1t has changed old
conditions in farming and introduced
a complete new era in soil cultiva-
ton. Men go upon the land for the
double purpose of building homes
and profits. on the investment. The
small farm offers inducements nor
possible on large tracts. 1t has it,
tie expense accounts for hired help
and improved machinery The
farmer does not have large amount
of capital tied up from year to year
in necessary machinery and stock
for operating a big farm. The ii-
versified products are marketable at
all times and may be converted into
cash when needed for any purpose.
Fruit trees grow while the planter
sleeps, and they produce profits in
proportion to care in pruning, spray
ing, picking and packing fruit There
