BEANS CONTINUED.

How many beans do you imagine
were imported to this market during
1898? No idea2 Well, we don't
know just exactly either, but we have
traced the matter out to at least one
hundred and twenty thousand pounds,
and more to hear from; 1000 bushels
at SO busheI~- Sc, 000-all gone out
for what we can produce in quantity
and quality equal to any country in
America. We get the beans, but
there's the freight paid, all dead loss.
Surely we don't know beans rs we
ought to- Considering that this is
only one of dozen articles, it is cas-
lily seen what II huge financial leech

our land. Now, the Hovas' policy is
an absolute guarantee against such
Innovations and AS colonizer is only
second to the Cleveland Hawaiian
program. A great point in its favor
is its simplicity; a. child can see its
efficiency and nearly every commu-

out to perfection. 1t is a sure thing
All that need be done is to oppose all
other movements, and the Hovas'
policy, naturally and without effort,
adopts itself.

A PAY ROLL.

Two thousand Independent miners,
working in the placers Of Washington
county at net gain of only two dol
lars per day, would give us a pay roll
and home market, and one not sub
ject to the caprice or necessities Of
bad managed bankrupt corporations.
Washington county has the ground
that will pay Off the roll every Satur-
day night and every man his own

no use talking, he was scared. He
came out OF there on all fours, look
ing as wild as buck. That is what
one Of the boys said, telling me about
it. He stayed with them several
days, and these are fair samples of
what he had to endure; but he took it
all i'll good part, and him and the
cowboys are good friends yet. But
it wasn't all fun in those days, when
binders and headers had not made
their appearance, and the same men
who rode so well at the round-ups
worked like turks in the harvest
field. | have seen them grading the
grain, and then reapers took the place
of the cradle and the men followed
after, binding. We used to have
better yield, and it goes without say
ing, a much better price, and right
here | would like to have little d.
gression. Don't you think we are
making a mistake in trying to raise
grain at the present prices, and to 90
on year after year putting the same
crops in the same fields and exhaust
ing one of the richest soils in the
world? Why do we not use a little
common sense and fertilizers? An
other thing, most of the farmers of
Washington county are land poor. A
little farm well titled is much better.

grain Of all kinds and made money at
it. I. G. Galloway, one of Wash
ington county's successful pioneers,
threshed the grain of the Weiser val
leys for years, and it kept him busy
for many weeks, going from daylight
until dark, for he was rustler and
kept things humming. Hogs were
another source of profit. The farm

drive by letting them run in the stub

strange how many of us cling to

course there were some who became
dissatisfied and sought new homes.
