July, 1921 



June 1. Mr. Woodruff was connected with the 

 old W'enatchee Valley Fruit Growers' Associa- 

 tion 13 years ago, and went from there to Salem, 

 where he was at the head of a fruit growers' asso- 

 ciation. He then took his position with the Hood 

 River association, and has been in New York five 

 years. Announcement is made by the association 

 that a loan of $1,000,000 has been made through 

 Spokane and New York banking interests, to be 

 used by members of the association in growing 

 and harvesting their crops. Contracts for 3.000,- 

 000 apple boxes have virtually been closed, mostly 

 with local mills. The entire crop of association 

 members, estimated at 4.in0 cirs. will be marketed

T^HE United States Department of Agriculture Is 

 forever on guard to protect our agricultural 

 and horticultural interests. One of the latest pro- 

 tective measures it has instituted is Quarantine No. 

 37, relative to the importation of nursery stock, 

 which reads: "Where any packing material is 

 needed for the safety of nursery stock * * * such 

 materials as sphagnum, cocoanut fibre, straw, chaff, 

 excelsior, shavings, saw-dust, charcoal and ground 

 peat may be used. Such packing material must not 

 h.ive been previously used as packing or otherwise

in connection with living plants and must be free 

 from sand, soil or earth, and must be so certified 

 by the duly authorized inspector of the country of 

 origin." 



AAA 



T^HE United States Department of Agriculture 

 reports a big increase in the number of stands 

 of bees in many eastern states. Why are not our 

 Northwestern states on the list? Here where fruit 

 growing occupies such a prominent place, and 

 where we claim to be leaders in the adoption of 

 modern methods, surely every orchard should have 

 at least one st.ind to assure pollenlzatlon.
