A.C Is Making Survey Of Orchards. Cherry pollination has held the attention of fruit growers, and nursery men for the past few weeks. Professor Coe, of the horticultural department of the! Utah Agricultural College In cooperation with commercial nursery men has been making a survey of cherry orchards in regards to tree experl-mentor- s, pollination. Since growers have become very interested in the cherry industry because of the splendid opportunities offered here, Professor Coe has been flooded with inquiries regarding the suitable varieties for planting and effective pollinizers. It has become recognized that Bing, Lambert, and Napoleon, the three most profitable commercial varieties of sweet cherries grown here are self sterile, and even inter-sterilThis means that the tree is unable to fertilize itself, and neither of the three will fertilize each other, as these varieties are the firm shipping varieties. It is essential that their productive qualities be kept up. The problem resolves itself into one of finding a suitable pollenizer to give high yields. Bing and Lambert are large black, firm cherries, and the Napoleons are the white canning variety. While older orchards had no trouble with pollenation because of the larger number of varieties planted, new plantings have been restricted to these three varieties, which are not productive unless are provided. The Black Tartarian and Black Republican are two varieties which have proven good as pollenlzers. The former, however, Is a soft cherry, and unfit for packing, the latter has the handicap of being small. To cap that situation, those two varieties have many strains, some of which are poor pollenlzers for our big commercial e. PROVO, July 19.

Professor Coe is experimenting to find some new variety to use as a pollenizer for the Bing, Lambert, and Napoleon, and to find the strain of Black Tartarian, or Blael Republican that is best as a pollenizer, appropriate it, and distribute it to growers for us. An experimental cherry variety orchard containing many sorts not grown here has been planted this spring at the horticultural farm in Davis county. Twenty-tw- o different strains and varieties have been used experimentally, and some should prove useful for permanent pollenation. If this knowledge can be secured, it will be a big step in cherry production, as this factor is one of the big handicaps at the present time. The experimental work is being done around Centerville and North Ogden. Incidentally, Professor Coe points out that some damage has been done to the apricot crop in Davis county, and that the cherries in the southern part of the country have been damaged to some extent Aside from that' the fruit outlook In Utah is normal. , 1 Street Meetings Begin On Saturday Evening A company of eight missionaries arrived in Brigham City Monday, July 16th, and are camped on the grounds opposite to the stake tabernacle.
