from frost. The only berry grown 10
the Clark Seeding, which is a remark
ably good shipping berry and because
OF this fact brings the highest prices
in the market. selling the past season
as high as s3.55 per crate. 1t Ia a
medium too small berry, but Of good
form and bright attractive color. 1t
is, however, light bearer, az l75
crates are considered a good crop.
Very intensive culture Is given by
the best growers Plants are set two
wsys. The more common way is to
place the plants about fifteen inches
apart In the row and the rows two
and one-h half feet apart. The latter
distance is better than three feet
where irrigation is Iesorted to. Other
growers plant in double rows, allow
ing 20 inches between the rows and 80
inches between the double rows. This
system takes fewer iIrigating bitches,
and gives three thousand more plants
to the acre, but many claim that the
plants do not do as we'll. In most
cas- 8 where nitrate of soda has been
suits we're obtained, while other grow
ers found that mixture of hen man
ure and wood ashes gave good returns.
Stable compost that contains straw is
undesirable because it interferes with
irrigating While in some cases the
beds are left In bearing from five to
seven yeaIs, this is generally because
the owners are not going to replant
and wish to get what they can from
the old bed. After the third year a
decline generally sets in. irrigation
depends upon soil and plants, the
ground being kept moist to give good
results, especially during the bearing
season. New plants are taken from
the strong one year old plants and
only one plant to runner Is allowed
by the more intensive growers. After
the bearing season is over the beds
new top being grown. Every precHu-
tion is taken to have the berries pick
ed, packed and shipped as carefully
as possible, great care being taken
not to allow them to become heated.
A number one berry is grown and it
ia handled in business-like and
scientific manner and they obtain H.
nancial results that are very satisfac-
tory. There is always good market
! for number one fruit handled as the
Hood River growers handle their
straw berries.
