them to potatoes. At least in GER
tain sections of this county it would
seem that the use of to 6 dollars
worth of superphosphate per acre
of alfalfa might be a better risk
than would be the purchase of po-
tato seed and its planting. (b) The
planting of only fields that are apt
to give high yields. (c) The allow
ing Of land to lie fallow rather
than planting to potatoes. In this
way fertility may actually increase
or one might even grow low pric-
ed crops on it. (d) The planting Of
alternate crops which might be
contracted Corn might be an
other good crop to grow for grain
purposes. (e) Where potatoes are
to be grown provisions might well
be made to take care of the low
grade stock through feeding to
livestock. The Branch Irrigation
Station at Prosser reports very
fine results from feeding of pota-
toes to both sheep and cattle.

ONION OUTLOOK


The March report on intentions
for onions acreage is that there is
to be an increase of IL percent. One
should keep in mind that there was
a reduction of Is percent in acre
age last year and 20 percent re-
duction in average yield per acre
due to weather conditions, which
resulted in net reduction in yield
of SO percent. This of course,
brought high prices during the past
season. These figures are we'll
worth keeping in mind when con-
sidering acreage to be planted to
onions this year.
The outlook information as put
out by Mr.. Drobish is being re-
ceived very favorably. While it is
not possible to point out just what
might be grown to assure the
grower good returns, the general
picture is undoubtedly of a great
deal of help to many growers.

grows. The four most famous are
Xanthi, Cavalla, Smyrna, and Sam
SCUM. To purchase and handle the
Turkish leaf, it employs 26 native
buyers, and during the re-handling
season, over 5000 native women.
As managers and supervisors, it
has 16 Americans, for all of its
tobacco remains in the original
sections where it is purchased for
one year or more for curing, be-
fore it is shipped to the United
States.
Tobacco, today, is the most
valuable export of Turkey and
Greece. About 80 million pounds a
year are produced in Turkey, while
Greece yields approximately 100
million. This tobacco is classified
into five different qualities and the
three best qualities from the most
famous districts-Xanthi, Caralla,
Smyrna and Samsoun- are used
in the manufacturer of Chester
field cigarettes.
There is an import duty of 35c
a pound on Turkish tobacco, which
makes it expensive; but cost does
not count when it comes to making
Chesterfield, the best cigarette
that money and science can pro-
duce.-ADV.

STRAWBERRY ROOT wEEvIL

The strawberry root weevil is be-
ginning to make its appearance in
strawberry fields in the lower val
ley. Spots in the field at this time
show lack of vigor when examin-
ed and have shown quite an infes-
tation of the larva and the conse-
quent distribution of many of the
feeder roots. Strawberry growers
of the county should be on the look
out for danger points and take the
proper steps at the proper time to
control spread of the insect to 9TH
+er fields or other parts of the same
field.
The adult of the strawberry root
weevil is black beetle incapable
of flight and hence must get from
place to place either by walking
or being carried there on utensils
II crates that may have been in the
area affected. The adult beetle
energies in this area from the lat
ter part of May to probably well
along in June. After emerging
they migrate to new areas for a
few days period and then begin
gig laying. Each female lays about
fifty eggs. These hatch and de-
velop into very small worms which
winter over and then, because Of
their rapid growth into habit OF
feeding upon roots, destroying a
large part of the root system OF
areas where they are at all plenti-
full. It is this rapidly growing larvs
stage that can be found in tn {
fields at this time and which will
change to the beetle in May and
June to spread over the patch.
A few years ago q poison bait

carries rather high percentage of
able of grain feeding. Here where
we have plenty of water for the
pasture crop and where we can get
such excellent growth of sweet clo-
yer or the mixed grass and clover
pastures, it does seem as tho they
should be given careful considera-
ton by those maintaining dairy
herds. eLonard Hegnauer, Exten-
sion Agronomist from the Wash
ington State College, in company
with the county agent, visited sew
eral farmers of the county recent
ly in establishing some pasture
demonstrations to show what could
be accomplished thru pasturage.
Mr.. Hegnauer particularly empha-
sized the need of rotation grazing,
that is, the division of the pasture
nto three areas and pasturing each
area only to the point that it would
have good recovery power. Pas
lures grazed close come back very
slowly and the maximum yields are
not secured.
Immediately after turning the
herd out of the one lot the pasture
should be narrowed to stir up the
surface soil and scatter the drop
pings left over the pasture and in
this way assist materially in the
aeration and fertilization of the
soil. If the soil is rather run down
the use of nitrogen at the rate of
200 to 800 pounds of ammonium
sulphate per acre will probably
give returns. If clovers do not
seem to establish themselves well
then the additional application of
500 pounds of superphosphate
might also be worth while.
There is no question but what
land in good pasture viii return at
least some form of net return and
why not consider the pasture rath-
er than some of the cash crops
where there might be a great pos
sibility Of loss.

method of control was developed.
This bait is effective only when
used against the adults and should
be distributed at the time that The
beetles begin emerging. This bait
killing the adults, then prevents
egg laying and the consequent con-
troll of the infestation at least TAX
en- to the point where economical
control has been secured. Good bait
will usually get from 95 to 80 per-
cent control. Nothing can be done
that is economical to rid the patch
of the larva at the present time.
Careful check therefore should be
made on the fields to determine
whether weap plants here and
there may be affected by the Vice.
vii and if so steps taken to prevent
their spread when the proper time
arrives.
A commercial bait has been pre-
pared known as the Go-West. The
Washington station and the Irri-
CATION stations have both expert
mented with homemade bait and
there is some evidence that new
ly prepared bait seems to be a lit
tie more effective. Steps are be-
ing taken to get information on
-
availability of basis of these bats.
Further information will be given
later.

FACTS ABOUT TURKISH
TOBACCO

The tobacco plant originated in
America. Hundreds of years ago,
it was not known just when OF
how, tobacco seed was transplant
ed to Turkey in Asia Minor and
Greece. The rainfall there is about
60 percent of the average rainfall
in the tobacco-producing sections
of the United States, and this, plus
soil and other differences, made
the tobacco plant lose its Ameri-
can characteristics and gradually
take on new qualities. The result
was that the tobacco grown in
these countries became a distinct
type, known as Turkish tobacco.
Turkish leaf is far smaller than
American. The average size is
about 8 by 4 inches, while many of
the leaves are only / inch in width
and length. Also, they are very
thin-a thousand or more leaves to
the pound. The most marked diff
ference, however, is in the taste
the pungent, spicy aroma distinct
ly different from Domestic.
Cigarette makers owe a lot to
Turkish tobacco, for it was cigar
cites made out of Turkish leaf
that first became the vogue in this
country. At first, cigarettes were
made entirely of Turkish, just as
at one time, many popular brands
were mode Of straight Virginia.
Years ago the Liggett & Meyer
Tobacco company, manufacturers
of Chesterfield Cigarettes, discov-
cred that a cigarette made of a
blend of Turkish and Domestic to-
baccos was better than either of
the tobaccos straight. 1t takes just
the right amount of the right kinds
of Turkish tobacco to give a Gig
arctic better taste. For Turkish
tobacco is to cigarettes what sea.
soning is to food-the spice, the
sauce. You want enough in a blend
but not too much. There's JUS
enough Turkish in Chesterfields tt
give them a better taste-a more
pleasing aroma-to make then
taste better.
There are several kinds of Turk
ish tobacco, and each type gets it:

WHY NOT A PASTURE?

Agriculture is In q very Compel
tive position and probably will re-
main so for at least two or three
years. The tendency will be for
the dairyman to drop out who is
following dairying under hand
leap of poor cows or poor set up
as far as land and crops are con-
cerned. Pastures are one Of the
most important crops for the dairy
farmer. At times such sthis when
there is a question as to what crop
can be raised on which some re-
turns can be secured it would seem
that it would be well for every
dairy farmer to give consideration
to the question of pastures.
One should consider the pasture
from the standpoint of a crop
which needs to be seeded and ir-
rigated only. Possibly some ferti-
lizer will be needed if the ground
has been badly run down. The cows
do the harvesting. The crop is one
which is a natural feed for the
herd and from which they return
good dividends in extra butterfa,
production, or in more economical
production. When one observe.
many herds in the county now poor
in flesh and rough in coat, one car
not help but know that a good pas
ture crop would do more than any,
thing else to put these cows bacl
into good condition. Because Of tn.

DROBISH MAILS POTATO
OUTLOOK FOR SEASON

Z & { 3 & )
The potato outlook information
prepared under the direction of Il.
E.. Drobish of the U.S.D.A. and
the North West potato committee
has just been received. Undoubted-
ly many farmers of the county
have received a copy of this out
look because of their cooperation
in supplying information on inten-
lions to plant. There may be 9TH
ers however, who may not have
received this outlook and we shall
attempt to give brief resume OF
the situation as pointed out by Mr..
Drobish. In the first place Mr..
Drobish points out that the out
look is again unfavorable for good
market conditions for this years
crop. His reasons for this are
that there is an increase of 2 IL
percent in the intention to plant;
that there should be an increased
acreage yield this year because OF
better moisture conditions; that
demand conditions are continuing
weak; that prospects is for low
prices.
On the production standpoint
study of the general situation
shows that agriculture is still de-
cidedly out of line with other bus
mess and as long as this contin-
ues the margin of profit for the
grower must continue small, at
least whenever there is any over
production. Under these conditions
only the grower having an espec-
tally good crop will be able to pro-
duce at figure that he may ex-
pect profit. This production will
come only on better lands and from
good stock well planted and well
cared for In other words if a
grower knows that he is in a mar
ginal area it would heem that the
wise thing to do might be just
what many manufacturers have
done, curtail production by allow
ing land to lie fallow rather than
lose additional money by trying 30
make more under these trying con-
ditions.
The actual acreage planted as
checked against the intended acre
age as reported of March 1 for the
last eight years has been 1913 per-
cent. This would Indicate that the
figures on intention to plant should
be given careful attention.
Mr.. Drobish points out that if
the acreage for 1882 were to be
harvested equal to that of 1881
that with an average yield as taken
over a period Of years the increas-
ed production of potatoes this
year would be between 25 and 80
million bushels.
No man needs to be reminded
that the domestic demands for
farm products has fallen to unus-
ually low level. This is largely due
to further declines in business
activities during 1881. There does
not seem to be much in the future
to indicate any Improvement in
consumer demand as there is still
a tendency to reduce wage rates,
which of course would have a
tendency to further cut consump-
tion.
The following suggestions are
made with the idea Of assisting the
farmer in ideas as to what to grow
for the coming year, or how to take
care Of land that otherwise might
have been put into potatoes. (a)
