convention took place at the first
Interstate Agricultural and Industrial
Congress in st. Joseph, Mo-, when 1866

December 8, 10, II and 10, 1914, in the
Auditorium at st. Joseph.
This congress, according to the plans
which are beginning to take shape, will
be even better than the last, as it will
profit by the experience of the other,
and arrangements will be made for the
educational addresses to reach those
who are most directly interested in
them. Provisions will be made also for
the exhibiting of appliances in which
farmers and their families are interest

TAKING the view that it is easy to
dispose OF first class products but
that the profit of the fruit and
vegetable business depends very largely
upon a utilization of the second and
third class products, Professors G. J..
Lewis and W. S. Brown, of Oregon Agri-
cultural College, have issued new col
lege bulletin called "Fruit and Vege-
table By-Products," in which they ex-
plain the conditions and processes of
organizing and running by-products fac
tories.
The highly important questions of the
amount of money necessary, the quan-
tity of products raised within the pro-
posed by-produets territory, and what
kinds of plants to establish, are treated
intimately from the point of view of
the grower.
'The question of what kind of plant
should be put in eannery, vinegar works
evaporator or jelly factory-eannot be
answered off hand" says Professor
Lewis. "There is undoubtedly splen
dir field for all those manufacturing
plants. 1t would be unwisc, however, to
try working all our low grades into any
one of these forms. If we were to at
tempt to work all valuable produce into
vinegar we should easily over stock the
market We must remember that there
are only certain types of products that
are adapted to each of the special uses

Winter Flowing is
Now Favored
THERE is diversity of opinion as
i to the advisablity of plowing in


I to the advisability of plowing in
the winter time.
1t is generally conceded, however,
that sod lands should be plowed in the
winter season. The freezing md thaw-
ing of the soil puts it in much better
condition than it can be put by the
plow and harrow after the spring has
opened
Winter blowing also destroys many
insects that would damage crops if
they were allowed to live.
There will be much more moisture
laid up in the soil and saved for the
use of the growing crop the next year
if the blowing is done during the win
ter season than there would be if it
were left until spring.
The capillary connection with the
subsoil will have time to be renewed
If the plowing is done early.
This is an important item that is not
often considered.

years of getting as nearly all of my

Pine Manufacturers Show Gain.

According to figures submitted to the
quarterly meeting of the Western Pine
Manufacturers Association by Seere-

first three months of 1914 totaled 214,-
100000 feet, an increase of 16,000,o0O
feet over the same period last year.

BY c. 1. LEWIS.

THE opinion is quite prevalent tnat
I fruit trees will grow and flourish in
almost any kind of soil. This theory
however, appears to be wrong, for fruit
trees, to put forth their best efforts,
require soil of good quality, as much
so as do the smaller crops, such as
grains, corn, potatoes, etc. Where sneh
crops thrive, some fruits are found to
do equally WELL Good soils vary in
many particulars, but they should be
fertile; that is, contain the necessary
elements for plant growth. The soil
should be deep and mellow if best re-
suits are desired. Depth is indeed a very
important factor in successful fruit
growing, because the root systems of the
trees require plenty of room for good
development. Young trees will thrive
for time on shallow soils, but sooner
or later they will become Improbable,
as it is impossible for them to obtain
the maximum development in such soils.
The question is sometimes asked:
"What is meant by good soils" From
the chemical point of view, we would
make the following classification: Poor
soils contain about Is per cent of pot
ash, .O5 per cent pbosphoric acid, 2 per
cent lime, .O5 per cent nitrogen. Pro-
ductive soils: .25 per cent potash, i per
cent phosphorc acid, . per cent lime, i
per cent nitrogen. Excellent soils: .35
per cent potash, % per cent phosphoric
acid, 10 per cent lime, 2 per cent nj
trogen. N, a

Best Soil Discussed.

From the physical point of view, it is
harder to say what constitutes the best
soil, but there are certain properties
that we find desirable. First, it should
be deep, the deeper the better. It.should
contain enough sand and gravel to allow
one to till it easily. 1t should have good
drainage 1t should contain enough
clay to make, it good moisture and
plant food retainer, and should contain
at least . per cent humus. K
Nitrogen is an element which teaches
very easily from the soil, and this ex-
plains to large degree the small per
eentage found in some soils. Each grow
er must, to certain degree, study his
own soil from chemical standpoint by
experimenting on small scale with
commercial fertilizers, cover crops, etc.
