Early Potatoes for 1892

A QUESTIONABLE has been mail
ed to the list of potato growers
secured from the office Of the Hor-
ticultural Inspector, Prosser. In
formation is being asked for as
to acreage in early potatoe sea-
son of 1881 and intention to plant
for season of 1882.
Upon receipt of replys to these
missionaries they will be for
warded to Fl. E. Drobish, secre-
tary for the Northwest Potato
committee, who will analyze the
figures and then at two meetings
held in the county, one at Kenne-
wick and one at Prosser, the pres
entation of results of this analy-
sis as well as discussion and mar
kets will be one of the main items
coming up for discussion by Mr..
Drobish. This will be followed by
discussion of orderly marketing of
the early crop next year so that
growers may secure as much as
possible from the crop to be grown.
These meetings will be. held in
Kennewick the afternoon of Nov
ember 2 and in Prosser the fore
noon of November 8. More definite
notice will be given little lat
err.

Raw Rock Phosphate

Reports have come to us that
purchasers of raw rock phosphate
in the upper valley last year were
very well satisfied with the use
of this material. particularly on
apples and corn. These reports had
come through those interested in
the sale Of this product in the
county. Since that time we have
checked with others who have OBJ
served orchards particularly where
the PHOSPHATE was used and they
report that they have been able to
see very little, if any, results from
the use of raw rock phosphate
from the orchards. The orchards
which are showing good results
where the phosphate has been APP
piled are orchards which were
largely in good condition anyway,
having been fortified over a period
of years. -,
Since writing the article la s. t
week we have checked with addi-
tional growers here and find so
far, no one feels that they have
gotten worthwhile results from it.
In year such as this when

er difficult to get it would seem

Washington FARMERS get bene-
fits under the Agricultural market
ing act. d. C. hand set head --------
Farmers of the State of Wash
ington have had substantial benz
eft the past two years from the
Agricultural Marketing Act. As a
result of this legislation, the serv-
ices of national cooperative sales
agencies for grain, livestock, wool,
and fruits and vegetables are now
available to them thru cooperative
associations. Assistance has been
given in the development of re-
gional cooperative marketing pro-
grams for dairy products, turkeys
and fruits and vegetables.
One of the main detectives of
the Agricultural Marketing Act is
the development by farmers of
their own marketing system which
will return to them fair share
of tie dollar paid by the consumer
for their products. The Farm
Boards major efforts have been
centered on giving such aid as the
Act provides in bringing this
about. State Colleges and extern
sion forces and vocational agri-
culture teachers of Washington are
cooperating intellectually in get
ting the program before the far
mers.
In addition to financial assist
ance Washington cooperatives
have had through the various ma
tional cooperative sales agencies,
the Board had made loans amount
ing to 1891, 286.92 to cooperatives
of that state up to September 9.

production than the animal which
freshens in an unthrifty state.
Raising the dairy calf from the
age of six months until maturity
requires more care and attention
than is given by the average dairy
man. Although the first six
months the calf usually gets its
full ration of milk or skimmilk,
the young heifer is too often turn
ed out to rustic for itself at the
end of that period and does not
make it's normal growth. If the
heifer is to make good cow, she
must be kept healthy and thrifty
for the first freshening.
Fall dropped heifer calves,
which are usually the most profit
able because they must be carried
only one winter after weaving,
are turned on the pasture in the
spring and make a good growth
the first summer. Spring dropped
calves should be put on pasture at
about three months of age and
should receive some grain up to
six months. Properly wintering of
heifers over six months old in
wolves the feeding of a good le-
gume hay and a grain ration of
about two pounds of oats or 9th
er grain a day. Good silage, as
much as the heifer can eat, may
substitute for the grain.
Two of three months before
freshening. the heifer should be
run with the cows and given two
to three pounds of grain day I'M
less she becomes too fat. Heifers
in good flesh when they freshen,
milk better and make use of their
ration when put on full feed.
Too early breeding of heifers
should be avoided because it has a
tendency to retard their develop
ment and make them mature lat
er. Holstein heifers should be bred
to freshen at about 80 m n t h S,
Guernseys at Is to 81 months and
Jerseys at about "a months.

The Turkey Outlook

"Indications are for a 1912
crop of turkeys amounting to ap-
prcximately 5 percent less than
last year in the territory includ-
ing Nevada, Oregon, Washing
ton, Montana, Idaho, Wyoming,
Colorado, California. A few of
these states report an increase.
The turkeys of this district are
from two to four weeks later than
usual. The crop decrease is large
ly due to a shortage Of incubator
poults. Producers of this district
depend on the hatcheries for their
poult supply, but were slow in
placing orders. Further trouble
and loss was caused by poor hatch
ability.
Storage stocks are less than for
years amounting to 2,774,0
pounds for August /, 1881 as COM
pared with 5,7O1, 1000 pounds for a
five year average.
The turkey price outlook for
1892 as compared with other
agricultural products is consider
ed favorable"
Our attention has been called to
the fact that some of the buyers
Of turkeys have been trying to
give the impression that there is
a big surplus of turkeys this year.
The above outlook report, copied
directly from the fall 1881 Agri-
cultural Outlook, just recently pub
lished in bulletin form, should
give growers and dealers direct
picture of the situation.
The depression was already on
when last years turkey crop had
to be marketed and yet it wa s
marketed to at least fair advan-
tages. With the big shortage stock
sof August 1, 1881, it looks as
though the turkey crop for tn e
present season should be marketed
at fair prices. One of course is
not able to tell just what may
happen but it would look as tho
the future points to at least a
fair market for the turkey crop.

HEIFER CALF LEADS
TO FUTURE PROFITS
Careful Rearing of Heifer Calves
Important Factor in Dairy
mans Success

Careful rearing of promising
heifer calves is one of the import
ant factors in successful dairying,
according to Eben L. Conner, ex-
tension dairy agent, Washington
State college. The heifer that is
well fed during its growing period
will come into maturity and maxi
mum production earlier in life and
produce much more milk and but
terfat than the calf whost birth
right is ignored through careless
ness or neglect. A properly ma
tured heifer has much better
chance to realize on it's inherited

OCTOBER is TIME
FOR BULB CULTURE
Planting Time for Crocus, Narcis-
sus and Tulip-Digging Time
for Gladiolus and Dahlia

October is bulb time during
which the crocus, daffodil, narcis-
sus and tulip bulbs are planted in
deep loan soil to start a root sys-
tenn which will force them up ear
ly in the spring, and gladiolus and
dahlia are dug up and store d
away to keep them from being
Frozen" says j. T. Bregger, ex-
tension horticulturist, Washington
State college.
seNeary everyone is familiar
with the planting of farm bulbs,
but there are several points which
should be emphasized. Bulbs of a
uniform size should be planted at
a uniform depth in laying our bor-
ders or designs. This insures, as
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1931-10-22

far as possible, the uniform growth
and blooming of the bulbs. The
bulbs should be planted at a
depth of three to six inches de-
pending on the size of the bulbs,
the larger ones being planted
deeper than the smaller ones.
"Although a few of the early
Towering varieties of gladiolus
are dug in September, most of
them are dug in October or at
least two months after blooming.
The gladiolus bulb, or corn as it
is correctly called, is best dug on
a clear windy day so that it may
be dried out as quickly as pos
sible. Immediately after digging
the leaf stalks should be cut down
to the neck of the bulb. The bulb
should be placed roots down in
pans or boxes and placed in the
sun to dry, or inside if it is rain
ing. In order to avoid future mix
ing, it is best to label the differ
ent varieties. They should be stor-
ed in a warm place until January
1, and then kept in a cold place
at about 40 degrees until planting
time in the spring.
3sDahlia tubers should not be dug
until the tops of the plant have
been killed by frosts. The roots
should be allowed to dry out day
before being put in storage. The
dahlia tubers require a cool damp
storage place all winter. This is
best provided by packing the roots
in barrels with moist saWdust or
sand, and keeping them in the cell
lar. If the humidity Of the cellar
is high enough, the roots may be
placed in boxes or bins without a
special packing.
stBoth gladiolus and dahlia sue
cumb If the temperature drops be-
low freezing. Although such bulbs
would not be killed during mild
winter, it does not pay to risk leav-
ing them out"

that farmers should study the fer
filters problem very carefully and
check just as closely as possible to
secure local information. One
should be able to maintain crop
production without loss in quality
at very considerable saving in
such years as this, particularly
if he has been fertiliing crops
well. Your county agent will be
glad to council with you on ferti-
lizer matters. You should also be
able to get assistance from your
local fertilizer dealers.

DEMONSTRATION MEETINGS

A series Of three or four demon
stration meetings on turkey kill
ing and dressing will be held in
the county in the near future.
These are being held in response
to demands from turkey growers
who have had quite little diff
Guilty in the past in dressing out
birds so as to get them to grade
out the u. S. No. rs. Some #
these growers tell as Of consider
able losses sustained last year be-
cause of poor understanding Of
the essentials for killing and
dressing. 1t is hoped that thru
these series of meetings that
growers will be able to secure a
better price for birds this fall.
Definite places and dates Of
holding these meetings will be
announced little later, probably
thru letters to turkey growers.
