THE CANE FRUITS.

There are probably no types of fruit
causing as many inquiries, at the
present time, in Western Washington,
as the cane fruits. Under this head
we may class the blackberry, rasp-
berry and loganberry.
We have two kinds Of blackberries
in general cultivation in this locality
the upright and the trailer black
berry. Raspberries are also of two
kinds, the blackcap and the red rasp-
berry. The purple berry Is grown
but not to any commercial extent.
Loganberries on account of their
habit of growth are in class by
themselves.
Site-It is not always possible to
select an ideal site for the berry field,

down until the soil PARTICLES are very
fine, even in the bottom of the furrow.
This is an important point to keep in
mind when planting. The rows can
either be marked off with a one horse
pillow or line can be used. Using a
line marked at intervals of thirty,
thirty six, or forty inches whatever
distance is desired between plants) is
very easy way of marking. The
plants can be set by using a spade or
large dibble.
Ii set firmly with the crown couple
of inches below the surface of the soil,
the roots will usually form at about
the proper depth. This will depend
somewhat upon the character of the
soil and its tendency to wash. On a
slope in light soil the setting would
need to be little deeper as the wash
ing of the soil would soon expose the
roots of shallow set plants.

Some successful growers train the
bearing canes on the lower SCI Of
wires and the young canes on the
wires above, while others prefer to
train the bearing canes on the upper
wires.
The wires are supported by cross
pieces Of two-b four which are nail
ed to posts The posts should be
eight feet in length, set two feet in
the ground and thirty or thirty-fve
feet apart. A number twelve berry

There are several methods of train
ing the red raspberry. Some growers
use only two wires stretched about

but whenever it is possible, the field
should have good natural drainage.
The best results can never be obtained
from a field that has little or no
drainage.
Soil-The soils may vary from quite
sandy loan to clay, but rich
garden loan is the ideal soil for most
cane fruits. The evergreen black
berry will live and bear fair crops in
quite cool and poorly drained soil,

Zig. ~
S Trailer blackberries are usually set
from sixteen to twenty feet apart in
the row, by the most successful grow
ers, and the rows about the same dis
lance apart as for the high-bush or
upright growers. Trailers require
four wires instead of two as do the
upright types. The wires are strung
in pairs, two at height of three and
one-half or four feet from the ground

is sometimes planted in hills six feet
apart each way, but more often the
plants are set in rows seven or eight
feet apart and about three feet be-
tween Individual plants. A wire is
strung along each side of the row, at

each wire of pair and at intervals
of about two feet These strips sup

while it is almost impossible to grow
the raspberry and loganberry in soils
of this kind. In general, the better
the physical condition of the soil the
better are the results obtained from
the berry field.
Barnyard manure is the best ma
terial that can be applied to a soil,
either to add fertility before planting,
or to retain it after crops have been
borne.

should be plowed deep and worked

''THIS IS A
REAL NURSERY"

A year or so since we quoted the
above remark make by practical
Orchardist and horticulturist, who
dropped in to see our plant after he
had visited most of the nurseries in
Washington.
What this gentleman saw on that
particular day was what goes on
here at shipping time for about four
weeks in the fall and six weeks in
the spring, besides which he, of
course, saw the fields of full-grown
stock ready for digging while the
spring visitor would see the plant
ing being done.
In other words, he saw a big
packing house, well systematized,
everything in it's place and fine,
clean, well-rooted stock being pack
ed out in good order for customers
in every section of the Northwest,
He saw about 40 varieties of ap-
Piles, about 40 pear, so peach, 20
apricot, IS plum. 80 prune. 40 cher
ry, ETC., right down through all the
staple fruits, shade and ornamental
stock, totalling 1920 varieties, each
in it's own place.
And that's why this is real nur-
sery. We grow full assortment of
all the best that belongs in a COM
plete plant. It's delivered to our
customers in good order, and it's
backed up by a dependable con-
Germ, whose highest desire is to sell
good trees to critical public.
That concern is us.

Little Rock, Jan. 23.-The Osborne bill, providing for a commission form of government in cities with a popu- lation between 18,000 and 10000 was called up in the house Wednesday, on third reading, and passed by vote of ayes 70, noes 13.

 Those who voted against the bill are Cravens, Doyle, Hudson of Ma rion, Hudson of Pope, Ludwig, Reid, rSain, Shouse, Stafford, Stevens, Thrasher, Wallace and Gibson.
 MT.

Another resolu- ton adopted was to permit any citi- zen of the state to file petition in juvenile court which would take chil- dren from improper surroundings, or place incorrigibles in places of deten- tlon. The law at present forces a resident of the county to file the peti- tion, and as much trouble has been created in neighborhoods where this is done, the change will permit a hu- mane officer living out of the county to prevent embarrassment to neigh bors by filing the petition.

 FARMS FOR R. R.

 system, under the direction of it's az ricultural department, is establishing the most extensive system of demon stration farms to cooperate with the farmers along it's lines yet undertak- en by an American railroad. The company has already established five large demonstration farms and ex- poets to soon have a sixth in opera ton. One of these farms is located two miles south of Conway, known as the Turner farm. These farms range in size from 25 to 40 acres which makes the undertaking the most pre- tentious yet inaugurated. Work will be conducted along the same lines as the government demonstration farm work, but will be on a much larger scale which will make it relatively more valuable.
 At present the farms will be confn- ed to the tracks of the Iron Mountain railroad three being in Arkansas and two in Louisiana. The sixth is to be somewhere on the company's tracks lin southern Missouri, the exact loca- ton not having been decided.
 All the farms will be under the general supervision of L. A. Mark ham, commissioner of agriculture of the Missouri Pacific-Iron Mountain, with headquarters at Little Rock MT. Markham was formerly in the service of the U. $. agricultural department The U. S. department of agriculture will cooperate directly in conducting these farms and have field agents representing them, and the state az ricultural colleges of Arkansas and Louisiana, c. w. Watson and Mason Snowden, state agents for Arkansas and Louisiana, respectively, are giv- ing the experiments.
 Each farm is to have resident , manager and each is to be located along the tracks of the company s lines in close proximity to a town . The managers and towns near which the farms so established are located are as follows: c. M Monroe, Glen more, La; Tom Andrews, Mer Rouge La.; J. J. Lowe, Dermott, Ark; J. w. Turner, Conway, Ark, and w. P O'Neal, Hope, Ark.
 The railroad will continue to expe- riment for at least three years, re- ! gardless of results, and if at the ex- piration of that time the work has . proved as successful as anticipated it will be continued indefinitely and both the size and the number of the dem- onstration farms will be increased Eventually it is contemplated to eX- tend the work into Missouri Pacific territory so as to cover the entire Missouri Pacific-Iron Mountain tracks with chain of farms conducted on modern scientific methods.
 The experimental farms will be strictly modern in all respects, be supplied with modern implements, be we'll stocked and literally furnished with the best seed procurable. All staple crops, together with forage grasses and, where practicable, fruits and vegetables will be grown. Accu- rate crop records and statistics will be kept showing the cost to produce a bushel of corn or oats, or a pound of cotton, hay or other products.
 Seed will be sold at reasonable prices to farmers in the surrounding country, and lessons in actual field selection of seed will be given on the ground by expert agriculturists.
