CHERRY ACREAGE

The good returns from cherry
orchards this year has raised the
question in the minds of many peo-
pie as to the ACCESSIBILITY of planting
cherries. To advise on this situation,
from a personal standpoint, is apt
to be questionable, but we believe
that from the standpoint of recon-
mendations of growers, that this
question should be carefully consider
ed by new growers or growers in
tending to increase their acreage.
In the Tree Fruit conference, held
at Yakima this year, careful study
was made of the cherry acreage al
ready planted and bearing and the
new cherry acreages planted in the
last few years and not yet old enough
to bear. After careful study of this,
the growers presented recommends
tons strongly against any further
increase in sweet cherry acreages in
the Yakima valley. While it is true,
as business man stated recently,
that growers were apt to be pessi-
rlistic in regard to their own COM
modities. I think we do believe that
a very careful stucy of the actual
situation should be made before one
actually planted. There are enough
evidence throughout the Yakima val
ley of over planting, to bring to
the attention Of any one who wants
to consider the question as to the
disadvantage ct program ct this

of the CHEEKY call of the male, which
has enlivened those who have had
opportunity to listen to it.
AS Americans went west and got
beyond the regular range of the bob
white, there were efforts to transplant
it to the newer regions. The farmer
is good friend of the bobwtite, for
cultivated fields are more favorable
than virgin territory for the bird.
In recent pamphlet issued by the

culture the author says that in try

with difficulties. 1t seems to be rather
commonly supposed that there were
! no birds west of central Kansas be-
fore agriculture began. There is no
doubt that they increased rapidly il
numbers all over western Kansas,
as well as eastern and southeastern
Colorado, as soon as farming oper-
atoms commenced.
"In Kansas the most interesting
feature of the history of the bob.

increase in numbers after the eighties
west of the hundredth meridian. This
wonderful increase went hand in hand
with the increase in pinnated grouse

PLoW QUAcKGRAss IN July

Fighting quackgrass is about as
mean JOB as any that exists on
American farms. Experience has
proved that it almost impossible to
eradicate the grass completely, once
it gets start and extends it's root
stocks in the fields, and that ordinary
cultivation is just about as bad as
leaving the weed alone. About the
best thing to do therefore, when it in
tests farm, says the United States
Department of Agriculture is to learn
to live with it by checking it from
time to time so that the fields may
be cultivated.
The ideal weather for killing quack-
grass is hot days and cool nights,
with just enough moisture in the
soil to keep the grass growing. In
midsummer, say in July, when the
grass becomes sodbound and the
plants are in bloom, the roots ac-
cordingly are weak. This is the time
to pillow just deep enough to get to
the bottom Of the rootstocks. Turn
the furrow flat and cover the leaves
completely, and then let the field
alone for about ten days, or until
new shoots appear. When the new
growth is an inch high, give the
ground thorough crosswise harrow
ing, preferably with a spring-tooth
harrow, and bring to the surface as
many rootstocks as possible. Continue
this operation with each new growth
until frost.
The field should remain rough over
winter, so that the rootstocks will
be exposed to frost. In the spring,
loosen the rootstocks from the soil
and plant a cultivated crop, such as
corn or soybeans, that may easily
be cultivated in rows. Follow this
with a smother crop; that is, crop
that will produce a rank growth,
such as hemp, corn in thick rows,
buekwheat or some heavy 1eguzne.

NATURE RESTORES BALANCE

Nature, sooner or later, usually

their beauty or their song.
In some cases, he says, the res
ponse of the birds to the new environ
ment is little short of marvellous, as
where 1.-TWO or three pairs increase to
several hundred individuals in a
couple of nesting seasons and there
is an immediate impulse to gain terri
tory. This was plainly seen among
the English pheasants in Massachu-
sets in the middle nineties and the
same thing has been repeatedly re-
ported with the European partridge
in the Northwest. In such cases the
stock seems to be at first far more
prolific than it was in its original ha-
bitat; the number of eggs, and especi-
ally the size of the broods, is increased
and there seems to be a period of
immunity from natural enemies.
These conditions do not hold indefini-
tely, for there is gradual balance
of nature built up against the aggres-
sive newcomers either a barrier of
disease, an increase of enemies, a
gradual loss Of vitality in the stock,
or the development of some other
subtle factors of control. There are
cases in which an introduced species
completely disappears after passing
through period when it is classed
as pest. This happened with the
California quail and the pheasant OF
New Zealand. Already the operation
Of natures own control is seen among

Green peaches may be attacked by
the corn-ear worm if it has been feed
ing on vetch near by, and the vetch
is not turnedl under early enough.
The corn-ear worm occurs through
out the South and is primarily a
pest of corn, tomatoes, tobacco,
cotton, and legun1es. On vetch and
other legurnes i feeds in colonies,
and when these crops are not turned
under early enough, are left for
seed, or are cut late, the worms
assume the army-worm habit and
move in "arn,ies" to adjacent peach
orchards or fields of other crops.
Because of this habit corn-ear worm
are sometimes confused with army
worms.
The Bureau of Entomology of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture noted that in 1926 corn-ear
worms did considerable damage to
peaches and other crops in Georgia,
Alabama, and South Carolina. Con-
siderable vetch was grown in the
South that year, and peach orchards
adjoining fields in which vetch was
not turned under soon enough or
was allowed to go 20 SEED were
materially damaged by the worms
devouring the green peaches as they
marched across them. This occurred
from the middle Of May to the first
part of June. In one orchard in
southern Georgia the corn-ear worms
practically destroyed the crop OF
peaches on 1000 young trees. Vetch
had been planted between the trees
rows and the grower had failed to
turn it under at the right time. In
another case the worms attacked a
peach orchard from hay in near by
barn, where they Matched after the
hay was cut and stored.
Control measures consist in con-
structing a deep furrow around the
orchard or in the path of advance
of the worms when they are seen to
start as an army. This furrow can
be made with turn plow or ditch
ing machine. One side should be
steep, and postholes should be pro-
vided at intervals in the furrow to
entrap the worms After the worms
get into an orchard poisoned bran
bait or spraying or busting with lead
arsenate is recommended.

kind. The early potato situation is
very pertinent one at this particular
time.
If one has a location where he
would be reasonably guaranteed of
crop every year, knowing that there
are cherry Sections now plar.ted
where two crops out of three, or two
crops out Of four, is all that one can
reasonably dxpect, then it might
seem well for that acreage to be
planted, and the economic loss would
assure that man of an income when
the other men in less favorable areas
would not have fair income. While
it seems hard to consider that a
man with matured cherry orchard
may have to quit sometime in the
future, yet just natural conditions
will bring this about if the orchards
are not planted under as favorable
conditions as new orchards may be
planted under.
Returns have been large on some
OF their cherry orchards this year, but
the other side Of the question must
always be looked at and if one were
to study the cost items in the prod
uction of that large income bearing
