DOUBLE CHERRIES

The question of double cherries
was brought to our attention again
recently with the request that some
correspondence be started to see
whether some special work might
be done on this question. The mat
ter was taken UP with DR.. Over
holser at the college and this part
of the letter referred to Professor
O.. NJ. Morris, who has been doing
some observing and study along
this line. We just have a letter
from Professor Morris giving us
the following observation. These
are merely preliminary observa-
tions, however. We feel that CHEEKY
growers having trouble on this
score might well observe their
trees to see whether some one IF
these factors may have been his
contributing cause. Further work
will need to be done before def
mite information can be given.
Professor Morris says: 81 know
that they are most common on the
south and southwest sides Of the
trees; that they are common only
on trees that have suffered a wide
fluctuation in water supply the
previous season. Also that they are
found in considerable numbers on
branches that they have a relative
ly small cross section of branch or
twigs; that they are more common
on older trees and trees standing
in positions where they are ex-
posed to southwestern winds, or
very hot sun. That young trees
produce very few and that the old
er trees produce very few on
branches that are making as much
as 10 inches of terminal growth.
l have no suggestion as to any
direct method of control. suspect
that we will ultimately find that
careful irrigation and careful plan
ming of the pruning are very large
~ controlling factors of this
trouble"
We would be glad to have crit
icism or suggestions on any Of the
points which Professor Morris has
made.

IMPROBABLE HENS
LOWER NET INCOME
Culling 10 Percent of Average 1000
Hen Flock Would Cut Costs
% Cents Per Day

If 1000 Washington poultrymen
each having a average flock OF
1000 white Leghorn hens, were to
Gull out 100 Improbable birds or
10 percent of each flock, egg pro-
duction for he state would be
reached about carload day and
the net returns to the poultrymen
would be increased about $4,000 a
day, points out w. D. Buchanan,
extension poultryman, Washing
ton State college. The increased
income per bird would be respon-
sible for the increased net returns.
The average poultryman finds
that it costs him $3.75 day to
feed a flock of 1000 White Leg
horn hens. Other costs not includ-
ing labor, bring the total to SIS a
day. lie he maintains his produc-
tion at so cents, he will receive 600
eggs or so dozen day. When the
eggs are marketed at an average
price of II cents a dozen, he re-
ceives $3.50 a day or SO cents a
day above the cost of production.
This gives the poultryman an in
come of SIS month on which to
support his family.
The poultryman in this predica-
ment must necessarily increase
his volume of business or cut his
costs. A careful checkup of his
flock will show him that about 100
of his 1000 hens are laying only
about "a eggs a day or less than
25 percent. These "a eggs, at Il
cents a dozen, sell for % cents,
vet they cost him SO cents to pro-
duce. By culling out this 100 low
producers, the poultryman saves
% cents day and some labor. His
net income pumps to 78c a day,
even though he produces two doz-
en- less eggs per day. His produc-
ton costs have been cut to about
$4.5Oa day while he receives $5.2S
cents a day for the 48 dozen eggs,
leaving the margin of rs cents.
Effective culling of a poultry
flock is not difficult if the basic
principals are once mastered, says
Mr.. Buchanan. Poultrymen who
hesitate to Gull their flocks be-
pick the low producers, may secure
cause they are not sure they can
assistance froo of charge from
their county agent or by writing
to the Extension Service, Pullman,
for Extension Bulletin No. 149,
entitled "Culling For Egg Produc--
ton"

The school will begin promptly

Fowl pox has become increasing
ly prevalent in Washington n d
elsewhere during recent years. Re-
search work at the Western Wash
ington Experiment station and
elsewhere has resulted in develop
ment of an effective method OF
vacmination for the prevention of
this serious disease in poultry
flocks. Since this vaccine is cap
able of introducing disease on the
poultry farm, its use is recon-
mended only on farms where fowl
pox has already occurred.
The school will be confined
strictly to the discussion of fowl
pox and no general poultry prob
lens will be taken up. Only poul-
trymen who desire secure permits
for vaccination of their flock and
who wish to make serious study
of fowl box will find the schools
profitable.
Following the two-day fowl pox
vaccination school and a satisfac-
tory examination the vaccination
permits will be issued by DIR. Rob-
ert Prior, supervisor of dairy and
livestock, State Department of Ag-
riculture.
This school is being held for the
convenience of poultrymen who
wish to vaccinate their own flocks.
1t will not be possible for a poul-
tryman taking work at this school
to vaccinate his neighbors. Vac
cine will be sent only to those hav-
ing a permit granted at the school
and to licensed veterinarians. It
should be plain then that those
wishing to do their own vaccinat-
ing or have vaccinating done 9TH
er than by a hired licensed veter-
marian must attend this school.

BATS FOR THE STRAW
BERRY ROOT WEEVIL

For several years the CONNER
cial "Go-West" bait has been the
bait more commonly used for the
strawberry root weevil. This bait
is made up of apple chop with
some arsenic poison, the weevil be-
ing attracted to the bait apparent
~ because of the sugar content of
of the dried apple chop, altho there
may also be come other material
here used to attract. Those having
weevils this year may make use of
this bait.
The Oregon Experiment station
found that a bran bait was also
elleir:ive in the control of the Vice.
vii. The following formula was the
one tried and slightly better re.
suits were obtained from the use
of this bait than from anything
else used. a..v Il
Bran 5 pounds. -r--...l If
Molasses 2 pints or sugar
pounds. "
Calcium arsenate ounces. a5
Water quarts.
The dry ingredients should be
mixed together thoroughly first
and then the molasses thinned with
the water and the whole mixture
mixed up. Calcium arsenate can
be secured at the Vibber- Clifford
Drug company at Kennewick. Cal
cium arsenate has been proven to
be quite a little more effective
than lead arsenate.
A close check should be made
upon the strawberry field from
now on and when about three
fourths of the weevil have chang
ed to adult or when the weevil are
first beginning to make their ap-
pearance above the ground then
the bats should be distributed
right in the row among the crowns
of the strawberry plants. 1t is
highly important that the batting
be done at the right time so that
the adult weevils will be poisoned
before egg laying takes place
which is usually few days after
they begin to move about over the
surface ground. 1t would seem wise
for all of those having any dam
age showing as results of weevil
to thoroughly poison the area af-
fected and being particularly care
full that an area a rod or two wide
outside of the affected area be
treated so as to prevent spread of
the weevil. 1t would seem well that
every grower of strawberries treat
the field with a light treatment of
the poison bait as an insurance
against any gain or Roadway by
the weevil. Fields showing quite
little damage this year were ap-
parently free last year, although
we know now that there must
have been some infestation there
during the last summer. The crop
will be certainly shortened as the
result of the infestation this
year. The bran bait at least should
be rather Inexpensive and we be-
lieve it sould be used as a method
of insurance against infestation by
the weevil.

Views on Senator
Nye's Bill Heard

Washington, March 15.-(P)-Di-
verse views over whether the govern
ment should retain mineral rights in
transferring public lands to the states
were voiced Tuesday before the SEN
ate public lands committee.
Opening hearings on the Nye bill
for transfer Of the land, several Of
the committee members indicated
they believed the states should receive
mineral rights.
This was brought out during ques-
tioning of James r. Garfield, of
Cleveland, chairman of President
Hoover's public lands committee
which recommended the transfer with
government reservation of mineral
rights.
The bill sponsored by Nye (R., N.
d., chairman of the committee, car
ries out the Hoover committees rec
concentrations.
Senator Walsh 3D., Mont) asserted
1t had been equally the policy of the
government, not to give non-mineral
lands to the states. Now that the
policy was changing, he said, he felt
the states had learned to safeguard
mineral rights.
The committee received from Secre-
tary Wilbur letter expressing full
approval of the measure.

st. Patrick, patron saint Of the
Irish, no longer is regarded as an in
dividual but as symbol Of the Irish
throughout the civilized world, John
F. Sullivan, Mandan attorney, told
members Of the Kiwanis club Tuesday
noon.
st. Patrick's tenacity of purpose is
reflected In the Irish, the speaker
said, in pointing to the achievements
Of the race. Prosecuted by the Eng
lish during the invasion Of Cromwell
until five-sixths Of the nation was
destroyed, the Irish have survived to
leave lasting imprint on every ma
ton OF Europe and the Americas.
American history is rich In the pa
triotism Of the Irish, Sullivan pointed
out. Many Of them fought in the
revolutionary war and several were
signers of the declaration Of indie
pendence. During the Civil war,
Irishmen made up the Bloody 69th,"
one Of the most gallant troops Of men
in the war.
With genius for thought, the Irish
have contributed widely to education
and political PHILOSOPHERS, Sullivan
said.
