Soil Moisture Control Will Be Discussed
An erroneous press report came out during the week of the citrus growers' extension school, recently held at Fullerton, concerning the recommendations of the Agricultural Extension Service of the University of California on the matter of soil moisture control in citrus groves. The report would indicate that the trees should come to a wilt between irrigations before applying water. This is misleading and, if followed consistently, would result in lower vitality and production of the trees. Our discussion did emphasize the value of using as little water as was actually needed by the trees and that the moisture content of the soil should be allowed to fluctuate between irrigations; that is, from a wet condition following irrigation to a reasonably dry condition before making another application. The frequency of application would depend upon the activity of root absorption, which again is dependent on the amount of foliage the tree has, temperature and humidity of the atmosphere and the extent of the root system in the soil.
We do not believe that trees should be allowed to come to a wilt except in case of trees that have been weakened from over-irrigation. There are numerous orchards in Orange county which have demonstrated the recuperation of sick trees from a more conservative and intelligent use of water. And in some of these cases the trees have been allowed to come to a brief wilt once or twice during the spring. During the spring months a tree may come to a wilt without doing noticeable harm if water is applied immediately, but wilting should not be made a regular practice in any case. Normal trees will not be allowed to wilt.
In reply to questions asked about the wilting point as determined by the laboratories, it was stated the laboratory wilting point, being slightly higher than the actual or true wilting point of the citrus tree, the former (laboratory) determination was a safe guide to go by if the samples are representative of
Grove Growers Get Half Million Dollars
Citrus growers of Garden Grove district are today receiving returns from the largest citrus crop to be shipped by the Garden Grove Citrus Association, according to reports from E.M. Dozier, manager. Garden Grove growers will receive approximately $600,000 for the 1926 crop, according to Dozier.
Shipments of oranges from this district for the past season broke records. There were 415 carloads of fruit shipped from the Garden Grove citrus house during the past few months. The cars averaged 400 boxes to the cars, making a total of 176,000 boxes of first class fruit shipped from the district.
According to Dozier, the largest previous shipment by the orange house was about 370 carloads.
Fruit shipped from the local packing plant this year was of exceedingly high quality, according to Dozier.
Recent surveys of the Garden Grove orchards indicate that the 1927 crop will show an increase of at least 10 per cent over the present season. According to Dozier, a heavy crop is set on the trees at the present time. The crop, though heavy, is well distributed and the fruit should reach a maximum size.
MARKET FOR CITRUS
This year has marked the largest citrus export business in the history of California, according to figures just furnished by the California Fruit Growers' Exchange. The last European shipment of oranges numbered 30,000 boxes, making a total for exchange orange shipments for the season of 140,253 boxes. The exchange also has sent forward 32,699 boxes of grapefruit to British and continental ports. In carload quantities this is equivalent to 350 cars of oranges and 81 cars of grapefruit.
The trans-Pacific lemon export business, though small, is constantly growing particularly to Japanese markets. Quantities of oranges were exported to such ports as Yokohama, Kobe, Shanghai, Hongkong, Manila and Singapore.
Shipments for European countries are made direct to the London agent of the exchange, who in turn redistributes all over the British Isles, Belgium, Holland, Germany and other countries. Al though some direct shipments are made to Japanese markets, the bulk of the business is handled through San Francisco exporters who took 125,000 boxes of oranges and lemons, or 300 cars, for that purpose during the season just closing.
Who remembers the good old days when every up-to-date home contained a cook book?
