The Smyrna Fig In America I
In past issues we have discussed the
Smyrna fig In the southern end of
the seml . arid belt. It may be Interesting .
estlng to note the growth of the fig
growing Industry In the United States.
Until a few years ago nIl fine figs
used here were Imported from across
the water. The growing of the
C0111'
man fig of commerce , White Adriatic ,
began some time ago , but the Inability
of this fig to compete with the Smyr
na fig led to a Californian , George C.
Roedlng , who lives in the Joaquin
Valley , attempting to grow the Smyr .
na fig. But for him we might still be
without trees of this vm'Iety.
He began the enterprise In 1883.
Eight years before a California paper
had distributed cuttings of the Smyr
na fig tree to its readers and many
thrifty trees were the rosult. nut
when the trees came of bearing age ,
they persistently refused to produce
the fruit for which they had been
planted. The figs on these trees set
but never matured. They dropped
from the tree before getting half of
their growth. It was evident to any
investigating horticulturist that the
figs were not pollenlzed.
An Investigation of this Smyrna fig
showed that It was only the female
of the Capri fig and that pollen from
that fig must be Introduced Into the
flower of the Smnna fig to enable its
fruit to reach full development
and maturity. In the country where
these figs are produced there Is a
little wasp called the fig wasp that
does the work Qf Introducing the Capri .
pri pollen into the Smyrna 11g. This
Insect is dIgnified by the scientists by
the name of Dlastophaga grossorum.
It Is a small insect , in spite of Its big
name.
Mo.'I
This fig wasp is born in the Capri
fig , but leaves it while the fig is still
in blos om. It crawls out through
the blossom and covers Itself . with
pollen as it does so. It takes refuge
in the Smyrna fig blossom , crawling
down into It and leaving its pollen
for the use of that fig. This pollen
enables the , Smyrna fig to mature and
ripen.
Mr flooding trIed growIng both the
CaprI and the Smyrna fig trees , but
they did not help each other. He
trIed hand pollenizlng and succeeded
thereby in getting some fruit. Then
he tried importing the fig wasp , but
in all cases for several years the fig
wasp was dead on arriving in this
country. It tool eleven years to get
the wasp lntroduce'l alive and then success .
cess came. In 1899 the first fig wasps
began work In this country and quick.

Asia Minor and spent some months
in studyIng the practices of the fig.

For three years the industry has

Farmers' Review.
It Is not advIsable to keep the
ground bare of vegetable IDatter.
Cover It with stable manure or with
a cover crop that will die with the
coming of frost.
When grape vines are being set out
the holes should be dug deep enough
and large enough to permit of the
roots being placed and covered with
out bending.
When calves of different ages are
fed together they learn to eat grain
when from three to six weeks old.
In their best development they require -
quire all they will clean up twice a
day.
Sudden changes In the calf's rations -
tlons must be avoided , but changes
should be made graduallj'
