fruit for planting in that part Of

for general planting. The letters

Washington fruit Industry

The state Commissioner of Horti-
culture, Mr.. F. A. Huntley, has re-
Gently issued his report to the gov
ernor. This is a surprise to people
who have not kept track Of the
wonderful advance of Washington
as a fruit growing state. The COM
missioner finds there are IA ,978 1872
fruit trees in the state by actual
count. The report shows that more
than 229.854 acres of land in this
state are devoted to fruit culture.
Small fruits cover $500 acres;
STRAWBERRIES 2.532. There are also
$500 acres devoted to the growing
Of grapes.
The apple orchards are remark
able inasmuch as a large per cent
of the trees are less than four wears
old. Spokane county leads in the
number Of trees having 1928, ,805.
Chelan and Yakima are close Sc
conds, the former having 1,243 900
and the latter 1,241. 100. Yakima
leads in the number Of pear trees

Fight Against the DandeIion

With the dandelion season close
at hand, the following from the
botanist of the State College and
experiment station is timely. A
very common method is to dig out
as much of the root as possible with
long, heavy knife or with a tool
called a spud, and then to put a
few drops of coal oil on the cut sur
face of the roots. In many cases
the coal oil kills that part of the
root which remains. 1t is. however
not perfectly successful. Some per-
sons have tried sulphuric acid on
the roots. This is a difficult thing
to handle for it is very injurious to
the hands and to the person. 1t US
ually kills the dandelion roots, but
in some cases they escape;
Recently a good many people
have tried spraying for dandelions.
and this is recommended by some.
The method used is to make solu-
tion Of iron sulphate, two pounds to
one gallon Of water. Apply this to
the lawn with spray pump so that
it will make fine mist. Some peo-
pie put half an ouace If sulphuric
acid in each gallon of the spray. In
any event, all that this spray can
do is to kill the tops. If, however,
one should begin in the spring and
kill the tops with the spray and
then repeat the process as often as
new ones appear. one ought in time
to get rid of the roots by starving
them out. This spray does little or
no damage to lawn grass or clos er.
1t sometimes blackens the edges of
the leaves little, but the damage
is never serious. From the stand
point of cheapness and ease of appli-
cation at least, this is probably the
best method to use in fighting the
dandelion.

About Apples

ed last year an output of 100, 900
cars at the maturity of the apple
orchards now planted in the Pacific
northwest. Planting statistics JUS

600 acres planted to apples in Wash
ington. Oregon and Idaho. Assum-
ing that one-half of this area will
never become productive. and this
is liberal allowance for disappoint-
ed hopes, we shall have approx
mately $4,000 acres. Upon the
moderate estimate of 400 boxes to
the acre, the output would be 54.-
