the case of peaches, 1t is sometimes
advisable to wait a little longer. 1t
is not advisable to permit two ap-
pies to touch one another when first
class apples are desired. Ordinarily
a young orchard does not need coyer
crops as badly as an old or bearing
orchard.
A much mooted question now is
whether or not there is any danger
of over-production of first-class apples
in the West during the next twenty
five years. So many apples are be-
ing planted which are not adapted to
the section and soil, or the orchards
are in the hands of inexperienced
growers, or other conditions are un-
favorable, all of which are reasons
for believing that there will not be
over-production. Less than one-third
of the trees planted each year in
Washington, or the entire Pacific
Northwest, will ever get into full
bearing. Furthermore, the increasing
population and the opening up of
new markets will have an influence.
A first-class apple orchard on good
land will be good thing always here
in the West.
The plan of going into pedigreed
nursery work is an excellent one.
There is a splendid opportunity for
selecting and securing such wide
variations in this country, and we
know of nothing that offers the op-
hot
toned does.
The percentage of CRAFTS that will
grow will vary from 10 per cent to
Is per cent to 95 per cent to 100 per
cent, depending entirely upon the
scions and roots. Good, plump scions
with strong buds usually mean good
results.
The Stamen Winesap, Delicious,
and King David apples are splendid
pollenizers for one another. They
are all good bearers and make good
commercial apples, but are not very
well known in the commercial trade
The Delicious is rapidly becoming
popular among those who know it. 1t
is a good bearer, and ships well. The
King David promises very we'll, but
has the bad habit of water-coring
seriously in sections where there is a
tendency to over-ripen. The Spitzen-
berg, Winesap (common) and Yellow
Newtown are all very high class
apples at the present time.
The "green web" or fruit worm"
of the coast districts can be COM
batted very effectively by spraying
with arsenate of lead in the spring
soon after blooming time. Use arse
nate of lead, or Paris green for cur
rant worms. That is much more ef
fective than hellebore.
To combat red spiders, use "black
leaf" which is strong preparation of
tobacco. This will kill the insects.
If this is not satisfactory, try kero-
sene emulsion. The tobacco spray
is made by using one pound of to-
bacco leaves to four gallons of water
and simmering this for an hour, then
straining. Two pounds of tobacco
dust or ground tobacco may be sub
stituted for the leaves. Black leaf
extract may be used, one part to IS
of water. A little lysol added to to-
bacco sprays greatly increases their
value, and permits further dilution.

summer pruning, especially on apples
and pears, may commence at once;
that is, after the first of August. In
