New Year season.
The members present talked over
the interests in general as they af-
fected the state society, and discuss
ed matters that would nave a bearing
on the future work of the society
concerning the efforts to secure
higher profits on their grain. In con-
versation with Secretary Lowthian,
he said hat the society has been
very successful as a whole in main
tanning a much better profit on wheat
since it's members have stood 80
we'll together. The minimum price
for wheat to be sold at the terminal
markets is $500 per bushel and
whenever the price goes below that
figure every member of the society
all over the country will not dispose
of a bushel of wheat until the price
goes back to the dollar mark, and
the secretary says that they have
been largely instrumental in keeping
the price up there. and only on one
or two occasions has 1t gone below
that point. He stated that notwith-
standing the money panic of a year
g the price of wheat was kept up
to the minimum price demanded by
the society nearly every day.
Mr.. Lowthian stated that there
are about 5000 members belonging
to the society in South Dakota, and
that they act practically as a unit
in following the instructions of head
quarters committee of Chicago in
%dispostng of their grain.
The following officers were elect
ed for the ensuing wear:

as In the early part Of the spring no
water is necessary, but In May or
June fill the hole half full OF water,
and when 1t has soaked into the
ground, set your roses and press the
moist earth firmly around the roots.
Spread the roots SO as to give them
as much chance as possible to get
large amount OF moisture from the
earth. Plant the roses little deep
er than the marks shcwn on the
bush, as the soil will usually settle
little. Fill the hole level with the
top OF the ground and press firmly
around the stalk. II there Is any
dead wood be sure to cut 1t off, and
1t will do no harm, II the bush is
large, to cut back a few inches OF
the live wood, SO as to make 1t cas-
Ter for the rose to start its growth
In the new location. II your plant
I ing is done In February or March
no watering is necessary, but If the
ground Is dry it must be kept moist
by watering each day In the even
ing. The small rose bushes, one
year old cuttings, which are sold 10
or 20 for a dollar, do not require as
large hole for planting, but other
wise they require the same care.
Those who desire to grow roses from
cuttings can do so by obtaining
the cuttings now, and setting them
out In cool, shady place until they
are well rooted A great many
varieties are easily grown from cut
tings. Most of the twO-year-old
roses are budded on wild stock.
When your roses begin to grow
watch for any wild shoots, and as
soon as you are sure as t. their ma
ture, nip them off close to the parent
stalk. II allowed to grow they will
act as suckers and retard the growth
Of the true rose. One-year-old plants
should not be allowed to bloom the
first year, and two-year-old bushes
should only blossom sparingly. A
little sacrifice the first year will be
more than repaid by finer roses and
better development Of the plants
themselves In the second year. Some
roses will stand more sun than 9TH
ers, and you must therefore watch
your bushes and II your first loca-
tion Is not right, change to the one
which seems better suited. All roses
need sunshine and do not like to be
crowded Cut out all puny or sickly
wood at any time OF the year, and
when you are doing your spring
pruning. leave only the stocky and
vigorous branches, and prune for an
open bush. Use common sense and
keep your eyes open, and your ex-
perlence will soon teach you the rest.

sulphur compound, as the rains nave
disinfected and cleaned his orchard
for him.
There could not be a greater error
made by the fruit grower than 10
rely on this fiction.
All live scale that may have Deeh
on the trees at the beginning OF
winter are alive now, and will be In
evidence next fall when the grower
who may have the scale in MS
orchard has no necessity to spray
for the same with the lime and
and other diseases from them"
This item implies that the grower
been of great service to the fruit
trees as it helped to clean the scale
The drenching rains have also
comes to gather his crop, If he neg
lected to spray with the lime and
sulphur spray.
All the rains have done towards
cleaning the trees is to wash off
dead scale shells that the scale have
abandoned. In no case have the
live scale been injured by the heavy
rains, or our unusual temperature
of the winter.
Of other diseases" aside from
insect pests, all diseases of fruit
trees are fungus in origin, and our
unusual wet winter has been very
favorable for their development.
Unless the fruit grower should
spray his apples and pears with
bordeaux just as the buds begin to
swell, l predict that there will
be an unusual loss from scabby
apples and pears. The same remedy
should be used on the peach to pre-
vent peach leaf curl.
Present indication points to a
large crop of fruit for next falls
harvest. Fruit trees have gone
through the winter in good condi-
tlon. 1t is up to the growers to be
ready when the weather becomes
favorable to spray for the scale,
and these fungus diseases that wi!
surely lessen his profits If he neg
lects to. A. H. CARSON,
Commissioner Third District.
Our careful commissioner lnfers
more than the language tf the
Courier article in question con-
veyed. We might have added, 1t is
true, that spraying must under no
circumstances be omitted, but we did
not suppose that anyone could think
otherwise. The Courier has always
been an advocate Of spraying early
and often.
Thanks, Mr.. Carson, for calling
attention to the matter. We still
believe, however, that the heavy
rains have helped to clean the trees
for they show 1t in trunk and limb.
1t Is With pleasure we note that Com
missioner Carson agrees with us in
predicting a large fruit yield this
fall and that fruit trees have gone
through the winter in good condition
J and 1t is quite certain that we vii.
have, as the Courier claimed, a
bumper crop II the orchards are
properly cared for.
II you are fond OF giving advice,

A FEW TIMELY HINTS
ON ROSE PLANTINS

To grow roses successfully In Ore
gon, one need not be an expert gar
dener, but some conditions OF soil.
planting and care must be observed.
Oregon has an ideal rose climate,
and many beautiful varieties can be
grown, which will not stand the Sc
we're climatic conditions Of the east
ern and central portions Of our coun-
try. Roses do not necessarily need
rich soil Heavy or clay soils
are not as well adapted to roses as
loan or sandy soils, but even In the
latter the matter OF good drainage
must not be neglected. AS a rule
the soil In and about Grants Pass is
adapted to rose culture, but the
granite soil needs enriching and
plenty OF cultivation, and the heav-
Ter black soil needs mulching with
coarse stable manure.
II the efforts Of the Ladies' Aux
Hilary in inaugurating Rose Plant
ing Day are to Prove successful, we
must use our judgment and common
sense at the outset, and see that the
bushes we buy have a fair start. II
you have a loose loamy soil, well
are good, but II not, then spade and
fork in well good quantity OF
stable manure, and II possible add a
load or two OF river sand. See that
It drains well after a rain. A soggy
soil Is not good for roses. CONNER
clal fertilizers are an excellent help
to poor soils, and are always the
best to use, as they have no seeds in
them which will later produce an
abundance OF weeds.
Having bought your roses, prefer.
ably two-year-old plants, mark out
your ground so as to give the roses
plenty OF room, three or four feet
apart each way, four is the better
distance, as you do not want to move
your bushes when they are six or
seven years old. II possible learn
o'hIng Of the habits OF growth
OF your bushes, and put the climbers
where they can be trained up, and
the more rapid growers OF the bush
