J. Davis as Burleigh Moyor, | " PROF. LAKE There was an interesting meeting of the Horticultural society held in the : Buckingham Memorial on Thursday cvening., The meeting was called to order by the president, S. A. Gilbert, jand the secretary’s report given by Frank H. Allen. Mr. Gilbert then in- troduced Prof. Edward R. Lake of the State Agricultural college at Corvallls, Ore., but at present assoclated with the department of agriculture at Washing- ton, D. C., who spoke upon different phases of horticulture in Oregon. The desirable part of Oregon is the valleys along the western coast and he de- scribéd especially the Willamette and ¢ | the Hood River valleys. This region is typical of the northwest and Professor Lake himself, after twenty years spent | in this region, is a good representative {of it. The floral industry here is only ten years old, so Professor Lake con- fined himself to the subject of fruits, in which he is especiaily interested. Growing fruits for money is the chief industry in these valleys. He spoke of the climate as being similar to that of New England. It rains from November to April. but never a heavy downpour, Just now Oregon is raising apples for the country. New England could raise as good ones—but never will. The ap- ple” problems there are what to do with second class fruit which cannot be shipped cast; Can it be sent to the oriental countries? Another problem s the packing. standard measure and grade is necessary—but the bill T. | now before congress is inadequate to | the needs of Oregon. | Old-Time Varieties Unsatisfactory. The varieties grown have had to be perimented with. Many old-time va- rieties were tried at first and found | unsatisfactory. New ones like the Yel- low Newton, Spitzenberg and Jonathan { have been found better suited. They have learned, too, to grow apples in the basement iustead of the attic. The expense is so much less in this way, as the constant song among the apple growers “Let us spray.’ They are {also easier to pick. The women help pick and pack them. They require not too much water and a deep soil. The trees are planted fort- feet apart and made to branch near the ground. The shoots are continually cut back to ac- . The apples are thinned ecar until they do not touch, thus making no off years and insuring better color and quality of fruit. It is more expensive to raise a large crop of apple seeds than a smaller one of tissue. ? Addressed Horticultural Society and Can be Made at that Eusiness in the East Il'nnjn:t Cregon Cl-ingllore Money o+ g ' Professor Lake preached apple grow=- ing in British Columhbia five years ago. Now_they have 1,200 acres in the fruit and/last year took first prize in Lon— don in competition with Oregon. = But their country is not level, their or- chards must be planted in stories at more expense than on the level acres of Oregon, so that she docs not fear them as a dangerous rival. College Graduates Are Raisers. Forty acres makes a very good or- chard.” The largest one has 8§40 acres. The Hood River valley produces espe- clally fine fruit, and 127 of the fruit growers here are college —graduates. They have brought eastern ideas with them—among them that of civic im- provement. They wanted nice homes, lawns and landscape gardening, clean towns, sidewalks—in short, a model town. With western energy they gave prizes for the best results in each quarter of the town, raised money by fajrs and bazaars ‘or through sub- scription, enlisted the co-operation of the Southern Pacific railroad, held fruit and flower festivals and tried in vari- ous ways to encourage immigration. It is needed there, where one can ride a broncho for three.days without meet- ing a single person. Use the Abandoned Farms. But Professor Lake thinks it is needed in the east as well. Immigra- tion out of the towns and into the vast stretches of country from New Eng- land to Virginla, where there are so many abandoned farms. The land is idle—not worn-out. It could raise ap- ples of color, size and flavor equal to any in Oregon. We must soon come back to the soil. The west is no place for a timid man. He would better stay in the east and do his apple raising. Forty acres planted in trees nets $500 a year in Oregon and would net $1,000 in” New England. In - the questions asked at the close the answers gave eight years as tbe time required to get an orchard into good shape. He also emphasized the importance of growing but one crop at @ time. The orchards are cultivated every ten days to keep the grass from growing. When the soil gets heavy a cover crop is sown in September and turned in in the spring. Five thousand acres of new orchards are being planted a week every year. The spraying is the most work in apple raising. W'his Oregon country is one of the best for sweet cherriés and peaches and walnuts are grown as well as pears ang other fruits. SOCIAL EVENING AT THE HAILE CLUB.

AND MRS. GREEN. Given by Entre Nous and Bridge Whist Clubs — Gifts Presented Them and Their Daughter. A reception and banquet were given in honor of Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Green and their daughter, Miss Katherine Green, at the rooms of the Haile club on Thursday evening by the Entre Nous club “nd the Bridge Whist club of which they have been members. There were twenty-flve members pres- ent besides the guests. ‘The banquet was served at daintily decorated tables in the men’s restau- rant, the green of St. Patrick’s day prevailing in the color scheme. After the banquet, seven tables of whist were played in the reading room, where among the decorations were little pots of genuine Irish shamrock from seed that had been planted by Mrs: Wiliam C. Lanman. e place cards also were in green and the room presented a most attractive appearance. The high regard felt for Mr. Green and his family was shown in gifts which were presented during the even- ing. The Bridge Whist club presented to Mr. and Mrs. Green a beautiful sil- ver loving cup, and to Miss Green a water color fruit picture by a Norwich artist. The Entre Nous club presented an elegant clock to Mr. and Mrs. Green. ‘With the gifts went the best wishes of all for the Green family, who are soon to remove from Norwich after a residence of five years.
