To put low priced basket on tho
price the wages must be cut lower
than the normal standard in America.
For this reason the trade is almost
entirely In the hands Of immigrant
basket makers, who know no other
trade and who are seldom or never
reinforced by native workmen.
The remedy lies In a reduction In
the cost of the raw material. Tho
cheaper the willow (when good in
quality the better the wages which
can be paid to produce low priced
basket, and low priced basket OF
good quality will find an almost IN
limited market. On this point the en-
tire trade agrees.
Great care should be taken In tho
selection OF the willow bed. Rich.
permanently moist sandy loan gives
best returns, though ordinary moist.
sandy land often yields profitable
crops OF willow.
Poor soils produce paying crops
where there Is market for short rods
AhOlu tdHu On WHICH water Is StdSnanS
during the summer If by drainage
the water level on land can be
lowered at least six feet below the
surface. the situation may be consid-
cred appropriate.
Do not plant willows In localities
where early frosts occur The tender
shoots are easily injured by the
cold.
Plow 10 or IL inches deep In the
fall. prior 10 planting the following
spring. This turns the top layer OF
the soil so deep that weed seeds can
not spring up.
Returns depend very largely upon
the method of culture, but more upon
the variety OF willow planted. because
the shoots of even the best varieties
and In the most suitable soil grow
brittle after the stools become old.
