of milking cows.

A good feature of this country is
that work is usually plentiful
thoughout this section, and the new
beginner on ranch who wants out
side work while improving his place,
can usually get it. Another Is that
there is still plenty of unimproved
land capable of being irrigated for
sale at very reasonable prices-$25
to $50 an acre. In other irrigated
sections without such good markets,
or as bright prospects, similar land
is held at double that price.
Vast stretches of upland and side
hills convenient to this city are suit
able for raising wheat and barley.
1t is government land, and will in
time be taken up and farmed profit
ably During the last few years set
tiers on this land are becoming quite
numerous.
The fact that this is a wonderful
fruit country appeals to many from
those states where little is raised
but apples and cherries. Here we
produce in addition peaches, pears,
prunes, plums, etc, of the largest
size and best quality. Berries of
all kinds are prolific In yield.
Few sections of the United States
for the farmer as this. and while the
mining, live stock and other great
interests of Washington county are
developing so rapidly, we may ex-
pect equal development along the
line of agriculture.

Good Yield of Wheat and Barley With
out Irrigation.
GOVERNMENT LAND GALORE
Thousands of Acres Open to Homestead Entry
Now.

Within a distance of three to ten
miles of Welser there are thousands
of acres of the finest wheat land
still owned by the government, all
of which can be taken up by those
looking for homes.
This land is high and rolling and
cannot be irrigated, but experiments
made during this season demonstrate
the adaptability to small grain pro-
ductlon. The soil is as fertile as
that in the famous Palouse country,
and the rain fall is quite as abun-
dant.
Wheat grown on this land this
year Yields 20 to 25 bushel TO the
acre, and as good crop can be de-
pended upon each year.
AS is usually the case in new

country, the novice or new conner is
the man who demonstrates to the old
timer what can be done SO it is in
this and a sample OF the grain grown
opens the eyes of our people to the
great resources that lie at our door
and have been overlooked so long
Gram grown on land that does not
require irrigation is better in quality,
weighs heavier and will make better
-four than that which has been irri
gated, and though the yield may not
be quite so large, the price is better,
and the cost to the farmer is less to
produce it. Wheat, barley, rye and
flax will do equally well, and when
this laud is settled and each quarter
section producing 20 to 25 bushel of
wheat or other grain, it means big
business for Weiser. Let every
man who wants home and ranch
for the taking, come to Weiser and
we will take great pleasure IN putting
him in the way of getting it.
Land will be land in this section
ere many years, and the prediction
is that every foot of high rolling
hills that can be cultivated will be
taken up and seeded to small grain.
Dead Ok Flat, Moores Hollow
and the rolling prairie for miles be-
yond are yours for the taking, and
each acre of the land will produce as
much grain, and in point of value
is equal with that of the John Day
country the Palouse or Big Bend
country Of eastern Washington.

Some Prices that Prove Ranches to Be
Profitable Here.
ATTRACTIVE TO EOMESEEKERS
Some Facts and Figures that are Influencing
Them Fayorably.

Ranching in an irrigated country
is always profitable, because crop
is certain if properly cultivated. The
danger from drouth, hot winds or
excessive rainfall is absent When
to these favorable conditions is added
the assurance of good prices, the
prospect is alluring, and is acting as
a strong magnet to draw immigration
to the fat land Of Welser. The big
crop of this valley is alfalfa hay, and
it holds first place in the ranchers
estimation because of the certainty |
of large yield and ready market.
Five tons to the acre and five dollars |
per ton in the stack is always figured
on, aud the product is as staple as
sugar One great advantage is that
with proper care alfalfa land gets
better with age. The owners of the
older fields are beginning the practice
of giving them thorough disciug in
the spring with the result of thor
oughly rejuvenating them. The
freezing out in winter and drying
out in summer so common IN mead
ows of the east, is unknown here, and
the psssessor of field of alfalfa is
as sure of an income as anything can
be on this mundane spere.
New potatoes are now selling at
four cents a pound, and the crop
will be good price this fall-Dot
likely less than two cents pound
This valley is admirably adapted for
this crop, and the price always fine
75c to So, 90 per hundred. Oppor-
tunities to ship are firstAclass, but
the home market has seldom been
fully supplied in past years
Cantaloupe, cabbage, beans, peas
and other small stuff yield immense
crops, and bring good prices both at
home and when shipped Ranchers
are going more largely than ever in
to these crops, as the returns from
an acre is much greater than from
general crops of hay and grain.
Those who have planted beets for the
LaGrande sugar factory are confident
of good returns, and no doubt a
larger acreage will be planted next
season.
Corn does exceedingly well here
when irrigated, yielding with fail
care from forty to one hundred
bushels an acre 1t brings about "a
cents bushel more than in Ne
braska and Kansas Comparatively
little is raised here, most of it being
shipped here from those states at 6
cost of fifty cents per hundred pouno
for freight.
A considerable quantity of whea
and barley is raised on land tina
cannot be irrigated 1t yields well
and is of good quality. The crol
will be light this season. Ordinarlll,
they sell at from SOC to 81 90 pc
hundred, but now the former de
mands 81 10 and the latter 81. 80
as it must be shipped in.
Poultry keeping pays we'll. Th
price of eggs seldom goes below 15
per dozen. The average price is 20
and at times here as elsewhere fame
prices are realized. At presen
Young chickens are worth SO 90 pc
dozen and lens 81 90 and $3.50.
Butter making is also profitable
A fair grade of country butter bring
zoe pound at present, and a gill
edged article can be sold 10 privat
parties for 25c. This price prevail
through most of the year. A goo
creamery plant is idle here, waitin
