Fruit set in melon breeding: Hand pollination found to be less effective than pollination by honeybees in experiments at Davis
by Louis K. Mann
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
That field-grown Powdery Mildew Resistant Cantaloupe No. 45 drops fewer pollinated flowers when insect-pollinated than when hand-pollinated was confirmed in a recent comparative study of fruit set on thinned vines.

Walnut aphid investigations: Tests in northern California during the 1953 season stressed need for thorough treatment for control
by A. E. Michelbacher, Clarence Davis
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
Systemic insecticides have been extensively investigated for control of the walnut aphid at Linden for the past two years and in the Walnut Creek, Yuba City, and San Jose areas during 1953.

Artichoke plume moth damage: Large part of 1953–54 losses believed to be result of inadequate sanitation and cultural practices
by W. Harry Lange, R. H. Sciaroni, A. S. Greathead
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
Successful control of the artichoke plume moth in the Half Moon Bay area during experiments in 1949 and 1950 was reported in Californla Agriculture for September, 1951.

Drought survival of ponderosa: Pine seedlings treated with simulated dew survive by month nontreated controls in greenhouse tests
by E. C. Stone, H. A. Fowells
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
The ability of ponderosa pine seedlings to survive in dry soil–so dry that associated grasses and herbaceous vegetation die–may be due to an ability to absorb moisture through its leaves.

Alkali soil reclamation tests: Experiments in Tulelake Basin show encouraging improvements in soil after treatment with gypsum
by K. G. Baghott, Warren Schoonover, James Quick
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
Results in the reclamation of alkali soils in the Tulelake Basin have demonstrated that bad alkali soils can be reclaimed–or improved–by the use of soil correctives, irrigation, and proper drainage.

Sulfur in fertilizer programs: Long-term studies of influence of sulfur on navel orange production indicate no improvement in yield
by Winston W. Jones, Clarence B. Cree

Most of the Washington navel orange production in California is on neutral to slightly alkaline soils.
