CAULIFLOWER SEED A Woman on Puget Sound Island Grows a Huge Quantity of It Nine-tenths of the world’s supply of CaulifIOWer seed is grown by a wo- man on a Pudget Sound island. Start- Tiing as this statement may seem, the fact remains that it is not due altoâ€" gather to any supremacy of knowledge or skill that has enabled Mrs. Anne Archibault to achieve what thousands of first rank gardeners hopelessly abandoned. It is due to the peculiar climatic conditions of Whidby island. Outside of Holland no other section affords the climatic requisites for ma- turing the seed pods of cauliflower plants. It was an accident, this discovery of Mrs. Archibault, that has made it pos- sible for her to own 1,000 acres of fer- tile land and to enjoy a business of $100,000 annually. Cauliflower seed will not mature except under certain favorable conditions. One is damp~ ness, humidity, which gives the tiny seeds the Dlumpness so essential to development. Another is waterâ€"not irrigation, rain, nor the wet, boggy *nush of a marsh, but a. continuous laoist soil beneath which a hardpan subsoil acts as a floor to a reservoir. 'The land of Whidby Island is ideal for this culture. Cauliflower plants are transplanted .like cabbage in rows. The usual cul- '-ivation is continued until the seed 'pods form. Then even the wind should be kept from the fields, for even the flutter of a tiny bird over a -'cluster of the seed pods will mar the :berfect development of the seed. Har- 'Ves't consists in gathering the dry pods, “artificial drying in the sun, 9. clover- . \seed separator and a farming mill. Mrs. Archibault’s first crop amount- ed to a handful of seed. About this time she read in a bulletin issued by- ‘the department of agriculture that the supply of this seed was short and limited to a few hundred pounds. This 'was five years ago. Like a flash Mrs. Archibault saw her longed-for inde- pendence. She grew 400 pounds of seed in 1907. Communication with some well-known se‘edmen brought orders for her supply at $3 a pound. Every year since she has increased the yield of seed until the present world’s supply of 30,000 pounds is practically all grown by her. Farmers all over VVhidby island grow this seed and sell their product to Mrs. Archibault, who markets it ‘through her eastern sales agencies. The cauliflower fields are beautiful at flowering time, the immaculate snow-White blossoms being alive with white butterflies. The mistress does not interfere with these cabbage moths, believing they aid in scattering “the pollen from flower to flower.â€"-Gail ~11. Fickie. Punk From CHINA ‘Pacific Ports in United States are Re- ceiving- Frozen Porkers Pork from the Orient is now finding a place on Pacific coast markets in . America. The scarcity of the domestic supply and attendant high prices have orade possible such importation. Fro- Zen porkers from China are an inno- yation in American pork markets, but are said to possess profit possibilities for the importer under present c0ndi-‘ rions. One can easily understand how pork production in the Celestial em- pire can be condducted at a minimum of expense. Cheap production ac- gounts for the possible competition with the American producer. It is not likely, however, that this new source of pork supply will have any noticeable effect on’ domestic condi- licns, relative to either market supply or pricesâ€"The Farmers’ Review.
