second spraying should be given two weeks after the first, 

 in a fine mist, with as much pressure behind the pump as 

 possible; subsequent sprayings should be applied at intervals 

 of from three to four weeks during the season. 



Peach Worm. — This insect seems to have invaded Oregon 

 orchards to some extent, and according to Bulletin No. 144, by 

 Prof. Warren T. Clarke, of the California Experiment Sta- 

 tion, can best be kept in check by spraying with sulphur, lime 

 and salt, applied early in the spring, as indicated by extensive 

 experiments conducted on a large scale in a number of Cali- 

 fornia orchards, and is recommended to Oregon growers. 



That the fruit industry is in a healthy and growing condi- 

 tion will be seen by the increased quantity of fruit produced 

 in the fourth district. 



All varieties show a decided increase over the previous year, 

 with the exception of cherries and strawberries; these were 

 materially injured during the March freeze up. Tables at- 

 tached will show product of the different fruit sections in the 

 district.
