Poultry and Small Fruits.

The writer has been much interest
ed in a fruit and poultry farm which
he has visited yearly sor the last five
years, and the results obtained on this
farm have been such that they are
worth attention here. The owner was
over sixty years old when he took up
this work. He had been a farmer all
his life and had raised both fruit and
poultry to a limited extent AS he
grew older the SONS left the farm and
il became too much of a burden He
sold it and bought ten acres ON the
outskirts, of a city of $4,000 people
Al the end OF the first year from
chicks raised and fowls bought he
had ninety-four laying Aens. One acre
Of strawberries was also in good con-
dition for first crop the following
summer.
At the. end of five years he has near
IL three hundred fowls and pullets for
egg production, markets many broilers.
roasters and fowls and has three acres
in strawberries. With the help of one
man all the work is done and our
friend Is making more actual money
beyond the cost of his living than he
had ever made on the farm OF seventy
acres and with Il much smaller invest
ment There are possibilities this
combination in many sections the
country, and they are well worth look
ing into. Plenty Of hard work in it,
of course. and many disappointments.

TITLE TO LAND FOR ROAD Az.

Order Received by the County Officials
This Morning Through Regular
:. Military tchannels.x



Walla Walla county now has an alb
salute right of-way for the county
road ION, the north side ,of the Fort
waAa walla military reservation.
The road along theSmilitary reserva-
ton was laid out and established many
years ago, but it was not until a few
months ago that the discovery was
made that the county of Walla Walla
had never been given a right of-way
from the government.
An application was made. through
the proper military channels. to the
secretary of war for the right. This
morning County Auditor Honeycutt
received. through the colonel at Fort
Walla Walla. the following order
issued from the Office of the secre-
tary of war:
Whereas, by section 6 of an act of
congress. approved July 5. 1884, (23
Stat. L. 1899, it was provided, inter
ALA, that the secretary of war shall
have authority, in his discretion, to
permit the extension of state, county
and territorial roads across military
reservations, whenever in his judg-
ment the same can be done without in
jury to the reservation or inconven-
fence to the military forces stationed
thereon;
And whereas, the board of county
commissioners of the county of Walla
Walla state of Washington, has ap-
piled to the secretary of war for per-
mission to maintain a county road
across the northern part of the mill
tary reservation of Fort Walla Walla
Washington. south of the right of-way
of the Walla Walla and Columbia
River railway; and it appears that
said county road, as now constructed
is public necessity and that it's
maintenance will not result in any
injury to the said reservation or in
convenience to the military forces sta
Toned thereon;
Now. therefore, this is to certify that
