The Horticulturist says that there can
be no mistake, it is an established fact,
that dairying and fruit growing is to be
the only profitable agricultural industry
in the state. Well calculating farmers
are already beginning to see this and
are planting out fruit trees, and, where
it is needed, clearing and seeding pas
ture land as rapidly as possible, know
ing that even small fruit and dairy
farm here in Washington, will, in the
near future, be an independent fortune
to its pOssessor.
The farmers who deliver their milk
to factories or creameries have the sat
isfaction of knowing that they have a
steady income, however great or small.
Milk checks are cash on demand, and
when farmer knows that as the
months come and go, his monthly
checks will be forthcoming, he has
something on which he can count.

A building is made of redwood lumber,
dimensions about 3x10 feet and seven

wide by three feet long, 50 altogether.
A space of two or three feet is left at the
bottom, and an ordinary small box
stove with double line of small-siZed
pipes placed horizontally comprise the
heating apparatus. It requires twenty
four hours to dry it full of one set OF
trays. The heat is easily regulated by
damper in the stovepipe. There is q

Hog raising is receiving more atten-

to keep few hogs, and in this way
