Five Springs.
The regular meeting of the Five
Springs Community Council was held
Tuesday night, July 19. with a fine at
tendance. The ladies’ club met in the
afternoon and they remained for the
night meeting and served a sumptuous
picnic supper just at twilight, which
was enjoyed by everyone.
The main subject for discussion was
better schools for the community and
a better community in which to live.
County Agent Chas. O. Smith was
the first speaker on the program. He
presented the matter in such a' force
ful way that the whole audience sanc
tioned what he said by a rising vote.
He showed how a community could
build a high school and maintain it
cheaper than they could send their
children off. He showed also how one
dozen children would get a high school
education where now one was being
sent off to boarding school, and how
much better it would be for the boys
and girls, the future hope of the coun
try, to be able to complete a high school
education and stay around father’s
hearthstone.
Mrs. Moore sanctioned what had
been said and gave some concrete illus
trations of how communities had been
built up by better schools and co
operation in every good work.
Mr. Buell Stark made a very earnest
plea for better schools.
County Agent Chas. O. Smith made
a short talk about the fight on the boll
weevil.
The audience resolved itself into a
committee as a whole to thoroughly ad
vertise the next meeting, which will be
August 16.
The school question will again be
taken up and a good program arrang
ed. Everybody is invited to attend and
take partin the discussion; also there
will be another picnic, supper.

BUILDING PRODUCTION, PROFIT
AND PROSPERITY INTO
AN ORCHARD.
There are two general classes of
eekers for advice, the one who pos
sess orchards which they se'ek to
develop to the highest point, and
those who contemplate planting an
orchard.
The latter class will find that a
little time and money invested in
considering locations will be well
spent. The primary requisites for
successful orcharding are soil, cli
mate, labor, markets, and facilities
for reaching them.
As to climate, perhaps the most
that we can do is to select one as
free as possible from extremes of
heat and cold, or from sudden
changes, and with neither an excess
of moisture, nor a deficiency. Prox
imity to large bodies of water will
assist in this matter. We have a
little more choice in the matter of
soils, but there are so many dif
ferent soils upon which various
kinds of fruits succeed that I be
lieve there are more fruit soils than
ruit men. A soil which is well f
plied with fertility, in well balanced
proportions and with plenty of hu
mus and moisture, and at the same
time free from surplus moisture is
preferable.
Many or all of these needs can be
supplied later if lacking but it is
desirable to secure soil with as
many of them already in it, as pos
sible, as I believe it is cheaper to
buy fertility by the acre than by the
sack or ton.
Nearness to markets or shipping
points is another important point,
which will forever impress itself
upon the orchardist as he markets
his crops from year to year.
In the management of the orchard
and especially in harvesting the
crop, considerable extra help will
be required, and this should be con
sidered in choosing a location.
Many, however, like myself have
gradually developed into orchard-
ists on the spot of our birth and
have thought best to make the best
of conditions already existing there.
After the location has been selected
the ground should be put in condi
tion for the orchard.
This means that if it is tillable
land, it should be fitted as for a pre
mium crop of grain or vegetables.
I am aware that many fine and prof
itable orchards are grown on land
which is so untillable that it can
not be well fitted, but this means
extra labor and expense which may
in the end, sometimes more than
offset the extra cost of higher priced
land. We have in the past heard
more or less about pedigree trees,
and while their advocates have not,
proved their superiority very con
clusively, still it is perhaps wise
for the orchardist to avail’himself of
any possible benefits which may
arise from propagating from trees of
known excellence where possible.
Records of bearing orchards for a
series of years show quite a vari
ation in yield of the different trees.
The trees should be well grown
and vigorous, but not grown so
rapidly as to be soft and sappy.
They should be so handled between
nursery and orchard as to preserve
all of the moisture and vitality in
root and top and not allow any
check in growth. Whether to use
the filler system in planting will de
pend upon circumstances. If the
ground is to be devoted mainly to
the orchard, and I believe it should
be, then I believe in using fillers,
but would plant apple trees as fill
ers in an apple orchard. If the va
rieties being planted are of a mod
erate h^bit of growth and bear at
an early age, I would use the same
kind for fillers as for permanent
trees,’ but if the permanent trees,
grow large before bearing much,
then I would use for fillers some va
riety which grow more slowly and
began bearing younger.
I have even used double fillers
with good results, using four times
as many trees as should remain per
manently. In this case, even more
than in single fillers, it is absolutely
necessary to feed the soil well and
remove the surplus trees as soon as
they begin to crowd the permanent
ones. Pruning, I have always called
a necessary evil. Necessary, be
cause, I never could secure just the
kind of a tree that I desired,-with
out any pruning; evil, because every
branch which is removed from the
trees removes just as much of the
tree’s labors and defers growth and
fruitition just as much. In the case
of the young tree I think “guiding”
and “directing” would describe the
operation about as well as pruning.
Pruning, spraying and fertilization,'
might well be called .the Trinity of
the fruit growers theology.
The highest measure of success
cannot bp obtained unless all three
of them are given careful attention.
We must create in partnership with
nature, a strong, healthy,, well pro
portioned tree, well supplied with
healthy foliage and vigorous fruit
buds, and so shaped as to admit the
greatest amount of sunshine to foli
age and fruit. To secure this growth
and the proper development of prof
itable crops of fruit, year after year,
we must feed the tree well just as
we must feed the work horse liberal
ly if we expect continued labor, or
the dairy cow, if we expect great
records of milk and cream. ^This can
be done equally well by the use of
commercial fertilizers, by stable ma
nure, or cover crops, or better yet,
by a wise combination of all of them.
The absolute necessity of spray
ing is now so well recognized that
I will only urge more thoroughness
and more careful study of require
ments and methods. We use high
pressure guns, plenty of equipment
and spray the trees from both sides
with the wind when it blows from
that side. Most large orchards have
too few spraying outfits. Dusting
will probably prove a valuable aux
iliary to spraying in some instances.
Another operation which is not gen
erally practiced, that of thinning, I
consider very profitable.
We feel that the time required to
thin the fruit is saved in picking
and grading, besides the thinned
trees produce fruit of better size
and quality and the trees are not in
jured so much as when overloaded.
This brings us to the problem of
marketing, which is one of the most
important and possibly the most im
portant part of orcharding.
After we have spent years of prep
aration, toil, expense and waiting,
we have a right to expect profitable
returns, and as a rule we are not dis
appointed. Growing a variety of
fruits ripening in succession will
not only distribute the risk and la
bor over a longer period, and en
able the employment of a moderate
number of trained helpers for the
whole season, rather than a large
number of “pickups” fpr a short
time, but will allow the orchardist
to secure and hold a better market
than if he is only on the market for
a short time.
The rules for successful market
ing, may be expressed in a very few
rules.
1st. Grow something which the
public wants.
2nd./ Handle it so as to preserve
all of its attractiveness and flavor
at the lowest possible expense.
3rd. Give every one a square
deal. In other words, unless a
transaction proves satisfactory to
both parties, it will not tend to
build up a lasting business.
Unless the orchardist is located
near to a home market so he can
sell directly to consumer, or nearly
so, he will need to either grow in
large quantities or cooperate with
other growers, so that the combined
output' will be large enough to be
landled economically.
The wonderfully efficient work
done by the Western Fruit growers
through their organizations is an ex
ample of what may be accomplished.
There is one requisite for success
ful orcharding which I have not
mentioned but which adds much to
the pleasure and profit of the work.
.1 do not believe it is possible to
attain the highest measure of suc
cess without a love and enthusiasm
for our profession, and certainly no
one ever chose a profession, of
which we had greater reason to be
proud.. We are co-partners with Na
ture and Nature’s God in the pro
duction of the greatest “luxurious
necessity” known to mankind.
There is nothing equal to an abun
dant supply of fresh wholesome
fruit to produce sound healthy
bodies and clear active brains, for
the nation, and he who does this and
realizes that he is also affording his
family the ideal environment for
an all round development of mind
and body, can well feel proud of
his symmetrical avocation.
