SEATTLB knights Templar have
~ had joyful, but arduous, task
OF three years preparing for the 36th
triennial conclave now in session
here.
When, at New Orleans In 1922,
Seattle was chosen as the city to
entertain the grand encampment of
knights Tcmplar of tho United
States at the 1925 meeting, the
knights Templar OF the city, of the
state of Washington and of the
Northwest returned home fired with
enthusiasm over the high honor and
determined TO do their utmost to win
success as hosts.
They Immediately set TO work on
plans for the great gathering, There
were all the mountainous details Of
tho vast program ahead of them.
Some s250,O00 was established as a
fund to finance all the varied phases
of the vast undertaking. The work
continued steadily turnout the three
years and in the last few months

effort to have "the house In order

USING FILTERS IN
ORCHARD PLANTING

It makes little difference whether
peaches or early bearing varieties Of
apples are used for filters. The inn
portant thing, however, Is the plant
ing distance and the arrangement Of
the filters. An ideal method, making
use of filters, may be described as fol-
lows: Planting the permanent trees
at distance Of 40 feet, filters may be
put in at 20 feet apart, actually MAX
ing total Of four times the number Of
trees. However, instead Of calling all
of these trees filters, one-third Of them
Chose located in the center of each
40-foot square formed by the perma-
nent trees) should be considered aa
semi-permanents. Thus the orchard
will consist Of Is per cent permanent
apple trees, 25 Der cent semi-perma-
nent apple trees and 80 per cent filler
apple trees, or peach trees.
OF course, the filler and semi-per-
manent trees are only temporary, but
actually they may remain in the Or
chard long enough to bear good many
profitable crops. Usually the filters
need not be cut out until the end OF II
or Is years. This Is accomplished by
the elimination Of every other diagonal
row all the way through the orchard.
The trees at this stage are % feet
apart, and there Is plenty Of room for
the remaining trees until they reach
the approximate age Of twenty-five or
thirty years. This will change the d.
r. rtion of the rows temporarily, but
there is plenty Of room for spraying
and the other orchard operations and
the direction makes little difference
during this period.
After 20 or 80 years, when the per-
manent apple trees have reached a
large size and quantity production OF
fruit, the semi-permanents should be
cut out, leaving the permanents 40 feet
apart each way.
The advantages of the foregoing
method are very easily seen. In the
first place we have about 10S trees on
al. acre during the early pr0duction
period of the orchard. This means
quantity production as soon as the
trees reach bearing age. The filters
will produce large number Of crops
before they have to be cut out, and
will during this time more than pay
the original and operating costs OF the
orchard. During this expensive period
when the orchard proper is coming
into bearing, the filters of peach or
early-bearing apple trees are paying
the bills. 1t is sound economic
proposition and good orcharding.

Horticultural Hints

X X X x X X x x x X X x
Place your order for fruit trees.
Put spray machines in order to save
time next spring.
Begin planning for treating seed po-
tatoes before planting.
Fruit production is the one thing an
orchard is for, and fruit production de-
ponds directly on the condition OF the
tree and the amount of bearing wood
it carries.
A type of interference which should
be cut out is the weaker of two closely
paralleling branches. One strong
branch in location is better than two
weaker competitive ones.
The first thing on the orchard pro-
gram for the new year. aside from or
dering spray materials, is pruning. As
this work is taken up it Is well for all
Of us to brush up bit on what we are
after in our orchards.
When orchards are set. if the trees
are cut back properly and small
amount of pruning done yearly. little
annual pruning will be necessary.
Fruits and vegetables in storage
should be looked over occasionally and
the delaying ones thrown out. Keep
root GRIPS cool and squash dry and
warm.
In THE orchard. fall blowing and
cover chops are valuable insurance
against Insects injuring the fruit next
year.

Leaf-Spot Infection Is
Fatal to Cherry Trees

Did your cherry trees lose their
leaves early last summer? And per-
haps the summer before? Let this sort
of thing keep up, year after year, FOR
a few seasons and you will have no
cherry trees to worry about. Lear
spot infection of cherry trees Will Kill
the trees in time by starving them out.
The first step in bringing cherry leaf
spot under control is blowing under
the fallen leaves in the fall. Then
make your plans to follow up this nrst
step by spraying next year. Apply a
lime-sulphur spray just as the petals
fall In the spring, and once more ABOUT
two weeks later. 1t sometimes pays
to spray still again after the fruit Is
harvested.
These control measures apply 10
both sweet and sour varieties. but the
sweet cherries are more susceptible to
injury by lime-sulphur, and the soiu-
ton should therefore be slightly
weaker when they are sprayed. Use
for the sour. cherries five quarts OF
lime-sulphur in fifty gallons OF water
and for the sweet cherries four quarts
Of lime-sulphur to fifty gallons OF wa
ter.

This cargo con- sists of herring barrels and salt for the many salteries to the westward. The Redondo is bringing large pack of fish which will be transferred to the Yukon for shipment to Seattle. The remainder of the cargo is for Seward and interior points, large portion for down river points on the Tanana and Yukon rivers. With the arrival of the steamer Northwestern in port next week, will mark the last shipment to Alaska this year for down river ports as interior navigation will close shortly after.
 Due to the large amount of cargo being brought in on the flagship of the steamship company it is believed the
