WHEN THE SPRING TIDE COMES.

The cruiser New York went into
the drydock at the Brooklyn navy
yard for repairs about two months
ago, and has not been able to get
out since. She went in on what
they sal! a "spring tide" and relied
on another spring tide to bring her
out, but it didn't come. Thecruis-
er New York is still in the drydock
waiting for the spring tide. This
is about a parallel for the present
condition Of the country. We are
in the drydock, waiting for a spring
tide to float us out. The country
went into the drydock for repairs
about two years ago, and since that
time there has been a great deal Of
Legislative tinkering and hammer
Iing,but still she won't float. The
bottom has been scraped 50 often
that wetsometimes wonder if the
bottom isn't in danger Of being
worn out, and still she won't float.
They said the spring tide Of prosp-
Gritty would come when the repeal
BILL was passed, but somehow the
moon didn't get into conjunction
with the fnanciers, end the thing
wouldn't work. Then they said a
new tariff would start the tide, and
again there was . fzzle. The old
ship Of state is still lying high and
dry IN the dock, but the spring
tide fingers. We are comfortable,

DIVERSIFIED FARMING.

In former issues we have given
our views in regard to diversified
farming in Oregon, and from con-
versation with a number offarmers
who have just harvested their crops
this year, we are more fully settled
in our opinion than ever. The days
when mamma fell from Heaven to
feed the hungry thousands have
long since passed by, and produc-
ing classes must face the problem:
what kinds Of crops will it pay us
to raise?
Years ago, when the inland en-
pire comprising Eastern Oregon
and Eastern Washington was sim
ply a cattle a cattle and sheep pas
ture, the raising of wheat and oats
in the Willamette valley was a
productive; for the supply was un-
equal to the demand--even in Ore.
gon--and the European market
held open its inducements to our
farmers by reason Of the paucity Of
the cereals from other countries.
Since that time Eastern Oregon
and Washington have turned their
stock ranches into immense grain
fields, and can more than supply
the home demand, producing on
land worth ten dollars per acre
more than twice the amount of
wheat raised in the valley on land
worth forty dollars per acre. Be-
sides this, the people residing in
the Argentine Republic and on the
vast plains Of India have turned
their attention to wheat raising,
and the advent Of railroads into
those extensive territories have
made access to market easy for
heir products.
The era Of high prices for wheat
mas gone by forever--as the supply |
ar exceeds the demand; and if our
'armers expect living prices for the
products of their farms they must
;urn their attention to raising such |
products as the country needs.
With wheat selling at 35 cents per
oushel, and other commodities in
proportion, our farmers cannot ex-
pect to be self-supporting, when
hey purchase from their brother
'armer in Iowa and Kansas,
through the commission merchant
N Portland, bacon at Is cent per
pound and eggs at 10 cents per
iozen. The money paid by the
people of Oregon for these products |
,oes to enrich the farmers in the |
,rans-Rocky states; while with |
better natural advantages, we could |
'aise these products more cheaply |
mere, and keep the money at home.
Let a few Of our farmers so diver
'ify their industries as to raise
,hese products at home, and our
word for it, they will find remun-
,rative sales. Polk County OBJ
