termine the seriousness of these
weakness, For this rason it is
hazardous to plant new varieties
before they have been tested. We
have an illustration of how costly
it is to experiment with new var
ieties in the Fredonia grape. The
weaknesses in this variety are
serious enough to threaten the
oontinuation of established plant
mgs.
Concord is by far the most
popular variety in the state. It
dates back to 1843 when Ephraim
W. Bull, Concord, Massachusetts,
planted the seed of a wild grape.
It is phenominal that it gained
in popularity from the time of
its introduction in 1854 and that
today it is still the most popular
variety in its class.
You need only to understand a
few of its characteristics to see
why it has built such a reputa
tion for itself. First of all, it is
extremely hardy, withstanding
climatic conditions in most of the
temperate zones of the United
States. It is not only hardy but
it is also productive. 01 even
more importance is its ability to
thrive and produce good crops
under soil and climatic condi
tions too exacting for competitive
varieties. It is in no way a fin
icky variety. These characteris
tics, along with its good average
quality. its good size, and general
resistance to cracking and shell
ing, mean an unusual combina
tion indeed.
Conch-d is the predominating
variety in central Wasihngton.

HI BASKETBALL
The Kennewick Lions Basket
ball tasted defeat for the first time
at the March of Dimes game play
ed with Pasco February 1 on the
local court. However this was not
a conference game.
The first conference game lost
was to Pasco in the Kennewick.
Gym, February 5. The Bulldogs
really took sweet revenge on the
Lions. Our boys shot and shot, but
the ball just rolled gracefully off
the hoop. Even the gift shots seem
ed to resent going through the
cords. When the game ended the
score was 29-42, in Pasco’s favor.
Kannawick. Feb. 8 - "
The Grizzleys were defeated for
the second time by one point more
than when the teams met January
25. The boys shot and if the ball
bounced off the backboard they
retrieved it and shot again. The
Lions now have won 7 out of 8
games after beating Sunnyside 36-
Walla Walla. Feb. 9
This was a game that didn’t ef
fect our standing, but one in which
the glorious Lions were defeated.
Harold Perkins was high scorer
who set up the score as he fed the
ball in but Walla Walla always
seemed to keep ahead. The final
score was 30-42.
Monday afternoon, Miss Flor

Seneca is probably the most
important of the new varieties
that show promise in the state
at the present time. Being a
white grape, it is not a commer
cial proposition but more for the
home vineyard. It is almost a
pure vinitera with a tender, edi
ble skin and an attractive aroma.
Its chief mreit is‘ in its ripening
season, which is three to four
weeks ahead of Concord.
Portland and Ontario are two
other new white varieties but
they are inferior to Smeca in
quality as grown here.
Sheridan is a new blue variety
(ripeningaweekorsolaterthan
Concord. Its quality and produc
tivity seem to be satisfactory but
just how it will fit into our vari
ety picture remains to be seen.
BUY EARLY
Washington farmers and ranch
ers who need grass and legume
seed will be short this spring,
says Everett J. Kreizinger, exten
sion agronomist at the State Col
lege of Washington.
Farmers buying their seed now
have a much better chance of se
curing high quality seed of the
varieties adapted to their respec
tive areas, Kreizinger believes.
The seed shortage is due to an
unusually small harvest of seeds
last year, when farmers preferred
to harvest their grasses for hay
or, in many cases, plowed up the
gass land and planted it with
other crops which yielded greater
returns.
. “Be sure you get certified seed,
if possible, and the kind that is
adapted to your area,” Kreizing
er says. “Alfalfa or red _clover
seed produced in the southern
United States or in western Wash
ington is not adapted for use in
eastern and central Washington,
but only for use on the west side
of the mountains. Also, seed of
smooth bromegrass and slender
wheatgrass from Canada, which
is being offered for sale in Wash
ington in rather large quanti
ties at the present time is low
yielding and heads so early in
the season that very little pas
ture will be available for live
stock.”
Kreizinger also warns against
the use of Fairway Crested
Wheatgrass which “is not palat
able to livestock. Farmers buy
ing crested wheatgrass should
insist on the standard strain.”
