Horticulture

and sometimes more if the worms are
allowed to go on without other methods
of destruction. We intend to go over
our orchards this coming winter and
kill every worm we can find.
Then we intend to band our trees
and after the middle of June, or the
first of July go over these bands once
in two weeks. In this way we can kill
a great many worms. One thing that
discourages the killing of worms in
the winter time and those found
under bands in the early summer, is
the small number Of worms killed
when compared with the number of
worms that appear before the season
is over. But it must be remembered
that when we kill worms in the winter
or early spring we prevent the multi
plication of the numbers in the latter
part of the season. One worm that
winters over may by this multiplied
tion become the progenitor of one
hundred or more worms before the
season is over. The worms we kill
in the winter have been Matched out
the previous autumn; those killed in
the fore part of the summer, up to
the middle of July, have been hatch
ed from the first brood. Any one
who has much experience in apple
growing knows that very little damage
is done by worms till after the middle
of July. [ have made careful study
of the appearance Of worms in my
orchards and have never yet seen one
per cent of wormy apples till after
the middle of July. ALI worms found
in apples up to that date belong to
the first brood, while those found
after that date mostly belong to the
second brood. 1t is the wonderful
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1911-11-15

multiplication in the second brood
that causes their destructiveness in
the autumn. Killing one parent in
the winter is equal to killing a
hundred in the late summer; killing
on parent in June or early July is
equal to killing % in the autumn.
From this array of known facts we
can see the great advantage in winter
killing and early summer killing.
killing off parents, kills off progeny.
Now let this killing off of parents
in the winter and early summer be
followed by thorough spraying i'm
mediately following the dropping of
the petals while the calix cups are
still open and then follow up with
one or more later spraylngs and the
best results obtainable to human
effort is within our reach. DO no
less spraying but supplement this
with the killing of parent worms as
here outlined, is my advice to those
who are inquiring about this matter.
Great care must be used in select
ing our spray materials. The de-
structive element in our spray
materials in fighting the codling moth
is some form of arsenic. After trying
several arsenical preparations, we
prefer the arsenate of lead. This
may be adulterated or so imperfectly
prepared that its efficiency is greatly
impaired. Ny sons are strongly of
the opinion that the arsenate Of lead
which we have been using for several
years was lacking in strength the past
summer. We shall send sample to
our state chemist at Pullman and have
it analysed before using it again.
The law is very rigid about selling
adulterated spray materials and
rightly so. If any manufacturers are
imposing on the growers, let them be
punished to the limit of the law.

PROFITABLE FRUITS TO GROW.
Under date of October 9Th, James
r. Jensen, of Snohomish county,
WASH, writes:
"Please inform me through The
Ranch what you think of the pos
sibilities of producing, on a COM
merclal scale, such fruits as Bartlett
pears, Gravenstein, Northern Spy and
Grimes Golden apples on good up
land, about $50 feet above sea level,
in Snohomish county? The land is
slightly rolling, and higher than the
surrounding country. Kindly inform
me also as to the best variety of
apples suited to this locality to plant
with the Gravenstein in order to Sc
cure cross pollination. I understand
that this is necessary with the Craven
stein. My reason for asking for in
formation concerning the Northern
Spy and Grimes Golden is that I have
repeatedly been informed that these
two varieties are the very best for
this locality, but the specimens l saw
at the Fair at Snohomish, September
18th, while very nice specimens, were
quite green. I wondered il they will
ripen here before or after being pick
ed, or if they remain green like some
other varieties have in this locality"

THE ROME BEAUTY.

Recently I have received several
letters making inquiry about the
hardness of the Rome Beauty apple
trees. This is surprise to me. I
think know the Rome Beauty about
as we'll as any apple that grows. 1t
is an apple growing in favor with the
trade. A dozen years ago this apple
sold about on par with the Ben
Davis but that is very materially
changed now. 1t is essentially fall
and early winter apple. During
November and December it fills
place better than any apple we grow.
1t is an enormous bearer. l have
nothing on my fruit ranch that excels
this apple in productiveness. One
man in writing me personal letter
says that last spring he set out 1875
Rome Beauty trees as we'll as other
trees. All the other trees did we'll,
but 80 per cent of the Rome Beauties
died. He wants to know whether
this variety is hardy. 1t most certain
ly is. His trees must have in some
way been damaged before they were
set in the orchard. l have repeatedly
said, and here repeat the saying, that
ii could set but three varieties of
the apple. they would be the Winesap,
Jonathan and Rome Beauty. Some
one may want to say that some apples
sell higher than either of these varie-
ties. That is notably true of the
Spitzenburg, but with me it does not
pay like the three named above. 1t
is not the apple that sells the highest
that pays best. One year with another
the three varieties named pay me 50. 90
where the Spitzenburg pays me 81. 90.
In some localities the Spitzenburg
pays better than in the Yakima valley.
When 1 recommend the Winesap,
Jonathan and Rome Beauty as the
best paying apples, it must not be
