is especially SO when it comes to
val ieties. [ often tell people who
come to me for information about
what to plant IN some locality with
which | am not familiar, to go to the
people who nave lived there longest
and ask them what apples do best.
Very naturally the fogs here referred
to would Ietard the work of the cod
ing moth and also would be detriment-
al to high cOloring of the red apples.
The National Apple Show held in
Spokane the past November has by
it's awards demonstrated one thing
and that is that no one locality can
carry off all the honors or even the
highest hOnors every year. Last year
Wenatchee in Washington carried all
the highest honors, this year Oregon
and Eagle Point won the highest
prize. When we read over the list of
prizes we see that they were equally

The local boastIng sometimes INDUCED

is always an indication of small

bear testimony that It's horticultural

w. V. Gaftey Lakeview, Wat
sonville, California, under date of
Dec. oath. 1909, writes the following
very interesting letter: 81 am a sub
scriber of your paper and seeking
information relative to the planting
of a certain apple, the Delicious. | am
planting about ten acres of apples
this year and therefore seek your
the soil is black loan for a depth of
four to six feet. Below this the
formation is shale and sometimes
sandstone. The land was formerly
covered with large llveoaks and i'm
mense growth of ferns. 1t has grown
for the past several years, crops of
potatoes, corn and horse beans. The
elevation is about 600 feet and there
is no frost. Among many varieties of
apples we plant here are red pear
main, Missouri pippin and Langford.
Spitzenburg will not get led here. We
have no irrigation and are situated
eight miles from the ocean. In the
summer we have very heavy fogs
which help the growth of the apples
and retard the work of the codling
moth to a certain extent. In reading
your valuable paper [ often notice
information in regard to the best
cover crops. The best crops that 1
have found are horse beans, California
mustard and wild turnips. Horse
beans sell at $500 per hundred
pounds. When cracked the horse beans
make good horse feed. Chickens and
pigs also thrive on it. 1t is the basis
of manufactured coffee now on sale. "
I wrote Mr.. Gaffey relative to the
planting of the Delicious as doubtless
he would want to know soon what
he was going to do, so he could Sc
cure his trees. In the last issue of The
Ranch | expressed myself pretty
fully on tie value of this apple. l
met man the other day who is plan
ming to plant some 1900 to 1000 trees
on his land in Okanogan County and
he said that a fter investigation, dur
ing which he consulted me, he had
inst put in his order for 500 Winesaps,
500 Delicious and 500 SpitZenburgs.
| said to him, "You have done we'll.
The conditions prevailing where Mr..
Gaffey is are SO different from what |
am accustomed to that | would not be
able to express an opinion on some of
the points he raises. Any ground that
will grow Indian corn will grow apple
trees. The cover crops that he grows
we could not use in Washington. The
best thing anyone can do when about
to engage in the fruit growing in any
locality is to consult with those who

said to him try it and you will see
your mistake. Any experienced
fruit grower knows to certainty
that it a sprout grows from Ben
Davis stock below the junction of
the Spltzenburg top, it will bear the
old fashioned Ben Davis and nothing
else. We have many illustrations of
this on our fruit ranch and could
prove conclusively that the theory of
transforming either top or stock is
absolutely false. Every thing in
horticulture goes to prove that the

Thorough Culture.

A good way of maintaining soil fer
tility is by cutting up all refuse, such
as oats stubble, corstalks and weeds,
just before blowing in the spring, then
working down into the ground with
the disk. This not only increases the
plant food in the soil, but loosens up
the top layer and acts as mulch, pre-
venting evaporation. The disk goes
down much deeper than the harrow,
and consequently is advantageous
When the plow turns the ground over
this fortified upper surface is placed
several inches down SO that there is
no loss. of humus by wind or by the
action of the sun, says writer in
Farm Journal.
find in my own experience that it
is not advisable to pillow year after
year with the same kind of an i'm
plement and to the same depth. If a
sulky plow is used the soil in the fur
row is apt to be compacted more or
less and the same is true, to certain
extent, with the walking pillow. The
share acts as wedge, turning over the
upper layer, and necessarily presses
against the bottom of the furrow.
Now if the depth of blowing can be
varied somewhat the packing will not

COTTON COMPRESS is NOVEL
Device Invented by Houston Man on
Entirely Different Plan from
That of Others.

An electrically driven cotton COM
press, operated on an entirely differ
ent principle from that on which the
ordinary compress in use works, has
been invented by Houston man,
Lemuel Tanner
The compress consists of movable
platform, which works up and down
on four spiral rods, the motors for
driving the compress being on the
platform itself.
The screws, which work up and
down on the spiral rods, work hori-
zontally In the platform, the joint be-
ing arranged with ball bearings This
screw extends two or three feet above
the level of the platform, where it is
broadened, horizontally. and becomes
a bevel gear. This gear is driven by
a complementary bevel gear, which
is in turn driven by an endless chain
or belt connected to the main shaft,
the main shaft running between the
two motors located on the platform.
Beneath the platform there is an
Offset, the base of which is the size
of bale. The base of this Offset is
the part which comes in contact with
the bale. The Offset enables an op-
orator to stand beneath the platform
and work there. The four upright
spiral rods are bedded in concrete at
the bottom and secured above by
heavy beams.
The cost of the whole affair is much
less than that of the style of COM
press now used, and the inventor main
tains that it will entirely change the
present system when completed. Pat
ents on the machine are pending.
This is one of several patents per-
fected by Mr.. Tanner, who has recent
ly secured patent on a track-raising
machine and ship-leakage alarm.

General Farm Notes.

Have plenty of pure air in the dairy
barn.
The brood SOW needs exercise all
the time.
A clean-minded man always pro-
duces clean milk.
Bees are good for clover and clio
yer is good for bees.
Lack of ventilation is the cause Of
dampness in many hives.
If you are burning coal the hogs
will help take care of the ashes.
The quiet, easily handled SOW is
preferable, other things being equal.
If you use cream separator sepa
rate the milk Immediately after milk
ing.
See that the colts hoofs are prop.
erly trimmed. A poor foot means a
poor horse.
Stick to the kinds proven best for
your locality if you wish your apple
orchard to return profits.
This is good month in which to
prune grapes. Don't wait till too late,
or the vines will be injured.
Don't be alarmed if the sitting hen
is off the nest longer than you think
necessary. She knows that the eggs
will cool as we'll as you. That's why
she left it.

RAILING SUGAR CANE
This Is Quite Profitable for the
Syrup Yield.
In Addition 1t Has High Value as
Food for Live Stock-Cuitivation
Is Much Like That Given to
Common indian Corn.

Sorghum is divided into two general
classes. In the first is included all of
the varieties which contain enough
sugar that it will pay to cultivate for
the sugar. This is the saccharine
class.
In the second class Is included the
varieties that are cultivated for the
seed, stalks, etc, used for feed for
farm animals. This class is called the
non-saccharine class. 1t contains
some sugar, but it is low in sugar
content. while the saccharine class
may contain as much as 20 per cent.
OF sugar in it's Juice.
The saccharine or sweet varieties
are cultivated primarily for the sugar.
but the seed and blades both make
good feed for animals The seed make
good feed for almost any farm ami
mails and for poultry.
Sorghum is cultivated very much
like corn. 1t is planted in rows 31k to
four feet apart and the hills are about
two feet apart in the row, with four
to five stalks to the hill.
The first cultivation is very tedious,
as the plants start off slowly, but
after the plants get up a little the
cultivation is not more difficult than
corn. An acre of good sorghum will
yield from 100 to 200 gallons of syrup.
The planting should be done lit
tie later than early corn, as the sor-
ghum will not do much growing until
the soil gets warm. When the seed
gets ripe the stalks are bladed and
the blades cured and tied into bundles.
The cane is cut and tops cut of.
The tops or seed heads should be al
lowed to dry out before storing away,
else they will mold
The stalks are crushed in a cane
mill and the juice strained and boiled
either in an evaporation or large
pan. Before the juice reaches the
boiling point all of the green skun
must be skinned Off
Another way to dispose of the green
skum is to put the juice in long,
deep box, with small holes in one end,
corked with wooden plugs, for draw
ing off the skum without agitating the
juice in the box. .

Fighting Disease in Greece.

Consul General George Horton has
made report from Athens on the
conspicuous work of Greek physicians
in combating the country's chief
scourges-malarial fever and tubercu-
losis. An annual average of 1000
persons die each year from the for
mer, while in epidemic years, due to
excessive rains, the number exceeds
5000, which was the case in 1905. The
population of Greece is 2,433,SO6 The
people have been interested through
lectures, pamphlets, etc., to fight the
Misunderstanding mosquito by draining
stagnant ponds and throwing petro-
leum on them. A tuberculosis con-
gress will be held in Athens next
year, to which will be invited not
only physicians, but all the mayors
and other prominent people of Greece.
