PICNIC AT ARCADIA.
Oregon lrrfgationisfs Enjoy a Day
Near Ontario.

Ontario, Or, Sept. 22.-The dele
gates to the state irrigation convention
we're the guests of citizens of Ontario
and Malheur county yesterday At a
picaic and banquet at Arcadia, a model
fruit farm owned by the Kiesel, Shill-
ing & Danilson company. Arcadia is
on the o. 8. L. railway, seven miles
east of Ontario. Eight years ago it was
barren waste of sagebrurh land; to-
day it is one of tho most fruitful Sec
tions OF land in the state, embracing
several hundred acres of alfalfa hay,
acres upon acres of bearing fruit trees
and dense grove of locust an ! maple
trees-an ideal place for a picnic.
The delegates and their wives were
taken in carriages supplied by the >citi
Gems Of Ontario and ranchers residing
in the vicinity for a drive among the
farms, covering an area of several
miles, finally ending up at Arcadia,
where the women having charge of the
banquet had prepared feast which
Congressman Williamson said eclipsed
any banquet he had ever attended, not
excepting those of Washington, and ex-
President Devers declared that it wa.
far superior to the famous banquet
given to the delegates of the national
irrigation congress at Ogden last year,
which is known to have cost over 81.
500.
After inspecting the fruit orchards
of Arcadia, where hundreds of tong OF
ripe and growing fruit are to be found
on the t,ees. the guests were taken
back to Ontario, where they all depart
ed on the afternoon trains for home.
The judges awarded the 800 loving
cup, offered for the county making the
best fruit exhibit, to Malheur county.
Baker county was the only other com.
petitor for this cup.
The experts employed by Commis-
sioner Young to pack the fruit exhibit
for shipment to St. Louis began work
yesterday afternoon and expect to for.
ward it today. A fresh lot of fruit
will be sent, as there is plenty as good
and better growing on the trees in the
vicinity of Ontario than that placed
on exhibition for the convention.

emigrants, clamoring for a last chance
to get to America for $40, the reports

took over 1000 $40 emigrants and
many were left behind for lack of ac-
commodation. The American line

Farm Notes.


Farming is poor business when the
farming is poor.
The richest part of any manure is
that which water will wash out.
Brood sows should have attention
before farrowing as well as after.
Care and fertilizers make the farm;
care and feed make the stock.
Any animal when fed heavily should
have a change of food, especially
sheep.
l., using the drill for sowing the
depth of covering is uniform and there
is no loss of seed.
Never let the farm work or stock
stand still or retrograde, but keep both
progressing steadily.
The richness Of the food given stock
manure made from them.
The productiveness or unproductive-
ness of a farm depends chiefly on the
farmer and his methods.
The value of wood ashes In the Or
chard and of coal ashes on heavy wet

is ready for sale at any time, so that

age may be taken of it
One advantage with the public
dairy will be found in the increased
richness of the farm, caused by the
extra quality and quantity Of the
manure made on account of keeping
more cows and giving them better
feed.
Variety in feeding belongs to profit

or other animals, but in connection
with variety there must be Judgment
used in changing and in the combina-
tions. Too marked change can only
be followed with disastrous results. .

MILKING by Electricity.

A report comes from Germany that
they are milking cows there by cleo
tricity. Rubber hoods attached to the
udder of the cow are connected with
the milk receptacle by a rubber tube
from which the air is exhausted by an
electric pump. It is claimed that the
suction thus secured resembles very
closely the sucking Of a calf, and that
for this reason the cow "lets down"
her milk more freely thai when hand
MIXED. Absolute cleanliness for the
milk is also claimed for the method.

Profit In the Dairy.

PTOHt In the Oa1Tys
1t has been truthfully claimed that
the dairy business removes less fertil-
ity from the soil than any other. Pro-
fessor Curtiss, of Iowa, made state
ment recently that in selling a thou
sand dollars worth of wheat one re-
moved $3.50 worth of fertility from the
soil; of corn, $3.50 worth; but $1,000
worth of corn can be converted into
beef. pork or mutton for market and
not remove more than $25 worth of
fertility with it. By converting $1,000
worth Of feed into butter, not a sin
gle dollars worth Of fertility will bs
removed. Butter is almost wholly
pure fat and the elements of which
add nothing to the produo -veness Of
the soil

the tree is absolutely hardy, being
classed among the iron-clad varieties.
It makes a strong. vigorous growth
and, as yet, has not been seriously
troubled with disease or insect enc
mics. 1t is quite regular in bearing,
comes early into fruit and is quite pro-
ductive. The fruit is medium to
large in size, and most attractive in
appearance, being smooth skinned and
most brilliantly colored. 1t is juicy.
rich in favor and free from fiber. In
season it belongs to the winter class.
Hog Raising on the Farm.
In choosing brood sows for the pro
duction Of pork, 1t is a very important
matter to select from prolific and
strong legs and good feet. The indi-
viduals selected should be rather
rangy, with a straight back, a broad
and deep body. It is not a bad plan
| to notice whether she has twelve de-
yeloped teats. Do not bred them be-
fore they are eight months old, but
feed them we'll before and after breed
ing, so that they may become vigor-
Gus and well developed.
The boar, as is usually said, Is half
of the herd, therefore, great care must
be exercised In his selection. In the

Sowing Glover with Wheat.
Farmers who appreciate the value
Of clover In farming operations are
quite willing to go to some trouble
to obtain a stand. Oftentime failure
is due to some fault in the plan of
sowing the seed. Try the following
plan: The wheat field is thoroughly
prepared and gone over with a spring
tooth harrow before sowing the wheat.
Level the soil with q harrow and then
apply fertilizers at the rate Of 300
pounds an acre, making up ton OF
it in the following proportions, 1000
pounds of acid phosphate, 800 pounds
of kainit and 200 pounds Of muriate
of potash. The fertilizer is broadcast
ed on the soil and then about eight
loads of fine manure put on; then the
whole field is narrowed two or three
times and 1t is ready for the wheat
seed and clover. The plan as outlin-
ed involves considerable labor and
expense, but it is likely to bring desir-
ed results.

first place, he should be full blood
sire Of whatever breed he is chosen,
SO that he may correct any faults that
may obtain in the sows. Like the
sows, he should come Of q prolific and
vigorous family, but should be moro
correctly built than the sows. It II
well to have the boar about the same
age Of the sows.
Weaninx Pigs.
We have never been able to under
stand the great haste to wean pigs
that 10 SO often shown. If the SOW
had to work like the mare there might
be some reason for early weaning, or
If her milk could be utilized like the
cows, but neither inducement is pres
ent in the case of the SOW, unless she
Is bred very soon after farrowinR,
which is not good practice, as a rule.
Eearly weaving Of pigs often produces
there is no occasion for, and often
does great harm. We like to have pigs
suckle the dam about as long as she
has milk for them. In the meantime
they have learned to eat what the
mother does and when deprived
of their natural food from natures
founts they do not miss 1t and lose not
a pounds weight. The dam, too, is
then in a condition to be dried off
without pain or danger of milk fever
or any other ailment that too early
weaving may produce. And finally, at
no time in it's life does the pig make
as rapid gain at as little cost as dur
ing the nursing period; then why not
make that period long rather than a
short one?-Farm. Stock and Home.

AS a Proposition This was a Wonder.

If the La Marlew cigar did not sell
faster than any new ten cent cigar
had sold in their store in the past ten
years, and was not the best seller in
their store at the end of two weeks,
they could be returned to Noyes Bros.
t& Cutler. The La NARROW had never
been heard of before, never been ad-
vertised excepting in the way it Is
packed, which delivers the cigar Just
as it left the cigar makers table.
This is the best advertisement any CT
gar ever had, aside from the quality
in a cigar itself because the patent
holder is in the interest Of quality and
the cigar Is perfectly round as when
made.
