AUGUSTA, July 12.-There is less

The hop plant can be grown gen
orally throughout the United States,
but at present It's commercial produc-
ton is practically restricted to areas
situated in the states of Oregon. Cali
fornia, New York and Washington.
They are grown in more or less large
quantities in Wisconsin. Idaho, Mas
sachusetts, Pennsylvania, Michigan,
Vermont. Kentucky and Ohio. Long
and severe winters frequently kill out
many of the plants. and continued
damp or foggy weather Is Injurious.
In the Yakima valley. Washington,
where rainfall is not abundant, irTi-
garion is necessary. The hop plant
readily adapts itself to very different
conditions of rainfall, but when the
harvest months-August and Septem'
ber-- are accompanied by much rain
fall the crop frequently suffers heavy
damage from lice and mold.
The selection of the best soil on
which to grow the hop plant involves
the consideration Of several factors
depending on the peculiarities or the
plant itself and the physical conditions
of the region in which the land hes

FRESH SEED BEST
FOR ALL PURPOSES
Extra Time and Expense Spent
in Securing New Stock Will
Always Pay.

With the exception Of squashes,
melons and other cucurbits, the ordi-
nary field and garden seeds will not
terminate after they are two or three
years old. Most of them have the
highest terminating power the follow
ing season after being harvested.
Seeds saved over from year to year
are of very doubtful value. The vital
germs are subject to destruction
from dampness, fungi, insects, mice
and natural chemical decomposition.
II planted they are liable to give an
inferior stand Of plants, or no stand
at all. Seeds that will not sprout are
not worth planting
1t is best practice to secure new
and fresh seeds every year Then one
is tolerably sure what is planted will
terminate in natural time and produce
thrifty plants. Some old seeds may
have the power to terminate, yet
their vitality Is so low that the plants
which they produce are low In vigor
and inferior in growth results. The
infant period Of plant or other liv.
ing thing Is the critical period. II 1t
starts out in life with weakened vital
ity and poor nourishment its chances
for large and perfect maturity are
small. Once stunted, 1t is always
stunted, is the rule.
1t is often a temptation to plant
old and left over seeds rather than
take the trouble to order new ones.
But it is best to always throw the old
away and get fresh supply. The
extra time and expense in securing
new stock will be repaid at harvest.

tings from planting from the nearest
available supply without any consid-
Grafton of the productiveness and
other qualities Of the plants from
which the cuttings are taken. This
has resulted in many yards in The loss
Of certain distinct vacietai character
istics, and in almost every field mixed
varieties and light and heavy pro-
ducers occur unfortunately.
A careful study OF the productive
ness of an acre Of hops in California
has recently shown that the yield Of
individual hills varied from a few
ounces to IS pounds of green hops.
When the number of these low-yield-
ing hills Is large the total yield will
be corresp ondingly reduced. Such hills
should be removed and replaced by
roots from plants giving high yields.
The time at which planting is done
depends very largely on the local con-
dtions existing where the crop is
grown but in general the best results
are obtained by planting as soon as
the soil can be worked into a fine mel
low condition. IN California, planting
should be done in January or Febru-
airy, although in some seasons plant
ing as late as May | has yielded good
results. In Oregon and Washington
hops are planted in March or April,
and in New York successful paintings
have been made in April in favorable
seasons. Thorough cultivation Is i'm
portant and should begin early and
continue until the plants are well
armed out.

local conditions, the length OF the

this feature of the states activities
will be handled is to consist Of three

wooded sections many growers have
dispensed with them This Is not due
to the labor and expense of handling

the advantages of growing hops on

poles that it is only a question Of
time when poles will be almost en-
tirely abandoned. The hops are
healthier on strings, more successful.

cleaner, and are much more easily
torn down for picking. Also the hops
can be picked without cutting the
vine, a practice which Is harmful,
since it prevents the return of ma

food reserves to the stock, produces a
weakening effect on the succeeding
crop.

quently expressed by the more i'm
portant hop dealers that one OF the
principal points for raising the quality
of the American hop is clean picking.
Hops must be dried soon after their
removal from the vines, as otherwise
they undergo a process of oxidation

for hop raising. The soil with high
percentage OF sand is readily tillable,
while the cultivation of a stiff soil is
difficult and expensive. Owing to
variations in the rainfall, amount of
sunshine, and force of the prevailing
winds, land suitable for hop culture
in one region would be entirely I'M
suitable if located in another. Since
the roots of the hop plant penetrate
the earth for distance of many feet.
well-drained subsoil is essential.
Especial attention must be given to
the depth, fertility, drainage, and fine
ness of the soil. Heavy wet soils are
avoided and stiff clayey soils are il
general djsfavor.
Hop plants may be raised from the
seeds, but this method is seldom en-
ployed, since by using cuttings strong
plants are more easily and quickly
secured.
In some sections Of the Pacific coast
a crop may be obtained from cuttings
planted in the spring, but In general
full crop is not harvested until the
second year.
The best cuttings are those taken
from young plants. as they are more
resistant to disease and should be
more productive than those from old
plants. All cuttings should be care
fully inspected before planting and
the diseased or damaged ones rejected.
The opportunity for producing i'm
