MOST FRUIT ON
OLDER GROVES
Ev H. E. Wahlberge Farm Advisor
Some very interesting and startling facts relative to citrus production are revealed in the recent survey by the Citrus Experiment Station, co-operating with the Agricultural Extension Service and Farm Bureau of So. Calif.
Among the factors involved in citrus production, as covered by the report are soils, fertilizers irrigation practice and climate. Soils of Orange-co and their effects on production is discussed at some length in Bulletin 374, just off the press and available at the Farm Advisors office, Hall of Records, Santa Ana.
It says that "The physical make-up of the soils is of some importance in its effect on citrus yields. The groves planted on medium-textured soil (fine sandy loam) gave the highest average yield. About 5 percent of the groves are planted on very light soil (sand) and these groves produced 20 per cent less than those on medium-textured soil. From 5 percent to 10 percent of the groves were planted on very heavy soil (clay loam) and those produced 10-percent less than those on medium-textured soil. The following table gives the actual average yields for the several types.
Average yields of oranges on different soil types in pounds per acre.
Yield in pounds per acre by climatic zone:
Type Coastal Sand—very light ... 14,100 Gravelly sandy loam and sandy loam—light ... 20,700 Fine sandy loam—medium 21,200 Loam—heavy ... 19,600 Clay loam—very heavy ... 19,000
The differences in yields between the middle ranges of soils (light, medium and heavy) are so slight that they may be almost disregarded. Compartively few groves have been planted on the extreme soil types where a real reduction of yields is experienced.
The following study of effect of richard practices on yields, the ZR-3, WORLD'S GREATEST AIR LINER WILL FLY TO U. S. HOME IN AUGUST
A view of the ZR-3 in its hangar at Friedrichshafen, Germany.
The world's finest and most efficient airship, the ZR-3, master creation of the Zeppelin works, will set sail from Friedrichshafen, Germany in August, on a 4,500 mile air voyage to Lakehurst, N. J., where it will be turned over to the United States government in accordance with the Versailles peace treaty.
Gravelly sandy loam and sandy loam—light ... 20,100
Fine sandy loam—medium 21,200
Loam—heavy ... 19,600
Clay loam—very heavy ... 19,000
The differences in yields between the middle ranges of soils (light, medium and heavy) are so slight that they may be almost disregarded. Comparatively few groves have been planted on the extreme soil types where a real reduction of yields is experienced. For the following study of effect of Richard practices on yields, the groves planted on sand and those planted on clay loam have been excluded.
Age of trees and yields:
There appears to be a definite relationship between the age of orange trees and their production. A regular and persistent increase in average production occurs until the groves are at least 35 years old. The small number of groves listed that are 40 years old indicate a still further increase, but the number of examples is too small to warrant safe conclusions. Possibly this apparently regular increase is due to the method of grove selection; certain itis that many groves have been abandoned in the past as unprofitable before reaching the age of 25 years. However, the data indicate that well located groves may be expected to continue to yield satisfactorily at least to 35 or 40 years of age if given reasonable care. The actual yields for the different age groups are given in the following table.
Age of trees and production of oranges:
Yield in pounds per acre:
Age Coastal
10 13,100
15 18,700
20 19,300
25 20,100
30 20,500
35 20,900
If the 35 year old group is considered as being in full bearing, the younger groves may be represented by percentages of a full yield as given in the following table:
Relative yields of orchards by ages when the 35 year old groves are considered full bearing:
Age Relative Yield
35 100
30 97
25 94
20 92
15 90
10 86
ANAHEIM CREAMERY MAKES ICE CREAM
Entering the ice cream field, the Anaheim Creamery Co., which has brought its milk, cream, etc., to the quality forefront among dairy products marketed here, has originated Velvet ice cream and expects to make a strong bid for local trade.
This cream, made from the real stuff in the factory on Chartrest, contains no substitutes and is a delicious confection. Ice cream is a delicious food, particularly well fitted for children in warm weather, the company points out. Anaheimers are asked to give this ice cream a fair tryout and compare it with others.
He has the edge
Who slings a sledge,
And eats what'er he pleases;
Who eats and slings
The ink, or sings,
Is courting dire diseases.
