FUTURE OF THE COW.

The Chicago News has a fashion of
taking up the bugaboos raised by those
who are ever seeing approaching ruin
and ridiculing them out of court. Fol
lowing is its latest effort in this direc-
Iion;
1T appears from a thoughtful and
candid survey of the situation by the
butter men that the COW is going the
way of the horse to extinction It is
scarcely within the possibilities of nat
ural history that this noble animal can
long survive the Vaccinations of the
makers of eleomargarine. The butter
men deny with scorn that there is any
plan to form a creamery trust or that.
IN the nature of things. any such trust
should be formed They point out that
the creameries are too numerous to be
bought up and consolidated. Then they
show that the high price of creamery
butter is probably due to the oleomar-
sarine makers, who are buying up the
product and advancing prices in order
TO prejudice the mind OF the consumer
and to create the impression that
creamery butter is an article of luxury.
obtainable only by the rich. Thus 1t
appears that while the creameries are so
numerous that nobody could buy them
all it is quite feasible for somebody to
buy all the hutter The end is plain
The malevoIt-lt oleomargarine men will
so on buying butter and advancing the
price until the people cannot stand the
tax and in despair win resort to the
cheap substitute, bull butter But ev-
cry cloud has silver lining BY the
time this is accomplished all the cream

selling butter at exorbitant prices and

A Demand For Irrigation.

The exuberant growth of all
kinds OF crops this year in the Lew
istou valley is evidence of the
great fertility of our sandy loan
soil. 1t is a fact that mineral fer
tilizing properties inherent in this
soil are almost inexhaustible. The
application of artificial water is all
that is required to produce perpet-
ual crops in this valley. The
greatest local economical demand
at this time is an irrigation system
that will accommodate the plateau
between Lewiston and Waha, in
Guiding the Tammany wheat fields.
The Dowd farm illustrates both the
utility of this enterprise and the
feasibility. Private enterprise has
made this large tract of land YER
liable garden spot. The artesian
flow of water has been successfully
tapped in this section of Tam
many. This artesian belt is not
necessarily local to the Dowd
ranch.
A flow of water has been OBJ.
tanned on that farm in four differ.
ent quarters. The variety of crops
and the excessive yields assured
by this irrigation system has in.
creased the value of the land to
tenfold of the price of the adjoin.
ing land. 1t is Logical conclu.
sion that a large portion of the
district named could be provided
with sufficient water by the same
methods.
The watershed of Craig's mount
ain is available for this region. A
system of reservoirs would be 6
a practical method for public OF
private enterprise. The water. shet
is ample and the conditions favor
economical adoption. The time i.
not far distant when some far
seeing promoter will advance the
price of the lands lying under thi.
watershed sufficiently to make {
million out of smallinvestment il
an irrigation system.

The experiments made by the O.
r. & N. company with grasses for
the semi-arid regions of eastern
Oregon promise great good to the
agricultural interests OF the west.
The TurKestan alfalfa seems to
promise the most for the lands of
the Lewiston valley and the ad,
joining districts. The Turkestan
alfalfa has spreading root system
enabling the plant to gather moist.
ure from surface water. The
common alfalfa has a long tap
root which adapts the plant to a
suhteranean moisture supply. The
dry fields of the west all have
an underlying hard.pan which is
always dry and wanting in the
qualities that promote plant
growth. The root system of the
common alfalfai is perceptibIy wrong
for field culture. The diffusion
system of the Turkestan variety is
the ideal for our soils both on the
sandy fields and the higher moist
