Nampa, Dec. 21.--The production of

end continued by the Il. l.. Stephens
Orchard company of this city on an
increased scale. Some so acres OF
the company's orchard was injured by
seepage before the government drain
age and it has found it necessary to
pull up the trees of this area and
through advertising that it would give
these trees free to people who would
take them up for fuel purposes, the
impression was created that the com
pany proposed retiring from the fruit
industry. However, e. f. stephens
stated today in discussing the report
IN GOOD CONDITION.
our advertisement that we had ap-
pie trees to give away, "a thousand or
more, brings the natural inquiry, are
we discouraged with orcha riding and
giving 1t up? Five years ago before
drainage was established some of our
valley lands suffered from seepage,
that is the lands became too wet. These
trees were injured by water and al
kali, this impaired the root system of
the trees. A first class apple tree ls
a profitable investment, crippled trees
should be culled out. We are turning
perhaps so acres of these lands that
were once too wet into grain and al
falfa, leaving about $40 acres in or

in a space of 2 miles on Orchard
avenue. 5 deep drains dug by the rec

This district is now completely
drained and in excellent condition for
either farming or orcharding. on the
higher lands in year old orchard,
oar foreman reports 117S boxes grown
on SO Rome Beauty trees. The trees
are planted 90 per acre. We will in a
few days know the cost of growing
this crop of apples and will be able
to report the same to the public. On
apple trees in Z year form, % boxes
from the most productive single trees;
trees in five year form about five
boxes. Our experience this season in
dicates that if apples can he sold on
the tree at % cents per bushel there
is large profits for the orchardist. The

rieties in yield per acre, the Delicious
sold at the highest price per box,
