HIGHPRAISE FOR YAKIMA
One Of the Eastern Editors Writes Of
ibis Fertile Valley.
WONDERFUL POWERS OF PRODUCTION.
The Hon. John n. Conner ts Cap
tsrea By the sWnnyside District.
He makes Very Favorable Cem-
Parissus.

Indiana Farmer: In my last letter I
spoke of the character OF this valley, its
soil formation and quality, / may re-
peat further in regard to the soil what an
old southern Californian said to me here.
He had been growing the citrus fruits,
grapes, etc., in southern California many
years before moving here and has bee n
here few years only, and coming from
an irrigated country was qualified to
draw conclusions and make comparisons.
He says the soil OF this valley exceeds in
fertility any he has ever seen and was
perfectly adapted to irrigation because it
neither packs nor bakes under hot suns,
but that the soil in California did both
more or less, whereas here 1t was as
"loose as an ash heap" after the water
and sun both did their perfect work. He
sold his southern California holdings at
also per acre with orchards and i'm
provements, and in now nearly four years
has since purchased, planted and brought
his land into fruitful and profitable bear
ing at . cost OF less than $3.50 yer acre
including trees, stock, labor and interest
on investment.
This valley has been spoken OF as
new country, and it is. But it is due to
explain how the great bearing orchards,
fields Of hops, potatoes and vegetables
and the alfalfa fields are to be seen here,
so fruitful and so prolific as to justify all
and more than has been said OF the soil
and its wonderful powers Of production
under irrigation. All this is due TO an
oldirrigation ditch which, for eight years
or more, supplied few farms with water,
upon which this wonderful productive
ness and fertility is manifest. This set
tied the question for the whole valley
and as stated in my last letter. capital
invested to irrigate the whole 70, 900 acres
Of land, every foot OF it alike in quality
Of soil. The new company bought the
water rights of old irrigation bitches and
turned the water into the new ones,
greatly extended, and with water enough
secured forever under the irrigation laws
to abundantly water five times the
amount OF land under the bitches and in
this Sunnyside valley. 1t may be said
that it was well that the pioneer did his
work effectually. Somebody had to have
bit of knowledge and an abundance OF
faith in this vocanic ash, basaltic valley
land. A few fruit farmers did have both,
made the old ditch, planted farms and
orchards, and as a result of their work
this valley is soon to become the most
fruitful In the world, as | believe from
what see.
The reader may ask will this wonder
tul fertility last? In my last letter said
the soil was forty to sixty feet in depth,
every inch OF it alike. But there is an
other factor in the lasting qualities OF the
soil, VIZ: Every rivulet and stream that
a L.. L..

and mineral fertility. and diverted
through the great ditch and latterals,
are annually pouring their wealth into
the surface soils Of this valley. II this
soil was but foot in depth this condi-
tion would make il productive forever.
Indiana, Ohio and Illinois farmers know
the value Of an occasional overflow OF the
bottom lands. The waters, ladened with
fertility by irrigation, is an overflow OF
several times year, depositipg this
wealth in the surface soil and leaving
it there, not washing it off into streams
to be lost forever, a. forty-two inches Of

trail states in large degree, especially
where thorough tile drainage does not
screen and deposit it on the surface.
have referred with this particularly
to the soil and its lasting fertility because
farmers in the central states OF abundant
rainfall, and farming without irrigation.
do not quickly comprehend the condi-
tons here OF only few inches OF rain
fall per year, and yet farming with water

quired. II one sets the 10th OF April, or
the LIST OF May, or any other date to
plant or SOW. be can keep his engagement
absolutely, for he is sure to have perfect
weather and no foods to stop him. Then
he can turn on the water the hour his
land needs il. And so in this valley a
man has but TO determine what he wants
to do and when, and he can count on re-
suits.
Get out in this letter TO tell the reader
about production, the kinds OF crops, va
riety, quality, yield and profitableness of
farming here. But have been so much
interested in the subject OF the soil and
its fertility that have heightened this to
the allotted space for such letter, and
must defer the other matters 10 next

The town OF Prosser. Wn., is located on
the Yakima river, forty miles west Of the
Columbia river, on the Northern Pacific
railway, and at the falls of the Yakima.
A wonderful water power is obtained
here and utilized with turbin water
wheels. A company organized with Dr.
Van Marter at its head, and Mr.. Fred r.

great enterprise in improving the natural
power at this point. They have put in

For protecting fruit trees from rabbits
probably the easiest and certainly very
effective method Is to rub axle grease on
the trunk. Or in the early part of the
season kill rabbit, cut Il open and
rub the raw flesh on the bark. II the
winter is very severe this will not save
the trees. Binding the trunk with straw,
laths or screen wire is effective. Be very
careful what you apply to the bark Of
fruit trees.

How many boys and girls on the farm
have had an old apr,n tied around their
waists and been told to churn until the
butter will hold up the dssher? Such
instructions are fatal to good butter, says
the Iowa Homestead. In the first place,
the dash churn is ten years behind the
times and ought to be thrown out OF
every farm, even II no more butter is
made than 10 supply the family table.
The box or barrel churn 10 cheap and IL
is SO much more convenient and 30 much
better butter can be made with Il that
there should be no hesitation in discard
ing the old dash churn In its favor. But
no matter what kind OF q churn Is used,
never churn until the butter is gathered in
chunks large enough to hold up the
dasher. There are several reasons why
this should not be done. One Of them is
that the grain is destroyed. Good butter
has a fine distinct grain aud when broken
shows a distinct fracture like cast iron.
II this grain is destroyed by over-churn-
ing or over working the butter becomes .
greasy mixture like lard. and has sgreasy
taste. Again it is necessary that the
buttermilk be we'll washed ont or the but
ter will become strong and rancid 10
short time. This cannot be done when
the butter is churned into Jumps. so in
the latter case the grain, flavor and keep
ing quality are oil injured. The churn
should always be stopped when the but
ter is in the form Of small granules, rang
ing in size from red clover seed to q
grain OF wheat; then the buttermilk can
well be washed out and the grain will be
uniniured II the work is properly done.
There is no reason why the farmer should
not make just as fine butter as any one,
providing he will take the trouble to do 1t
right.
