There are many objections to the

s 10 many serious objections to the
present condition of territorialhood.
that considering the situation from
as many points as possible II seems
to The Record that while single state

There will be many things done
during the first few years of state

SAILORS
The Reason They Are BaGEy and
Wide From the Knees Down.

A sailors rousers~often give rise to
a great deal of ridicule by reason of
their bagginess and Wilderness from the
knees down. no one troubles to think
that they may have been made i'll hat
way for some special purpose or other.
Jack tars naturally have so much to do
with water that it is almost to be won
dered that for working purposes they
are not supplied with knee breecEeS. in
which they would be able to paddle
bout without danger of damaging the
leg portion of their neither garments.
AS this innovation has not taken place.
the trousers are made very baggy so
that they can be easily turned up well
out of the water when work in the wa
ter has to re done. Were they provid-
ed with trousers of the same width all
the way down the leg they would find
it difficult to turn them up far enough
without at the same time impeding
their actions owing to the compression
that would be caused.-London Stand

The Dairying Industry.
Dairying in Clatsop county is in its
infancy, and very few dairymen realize
the natural advantages of this coun.
TRY. The climate. coupled with the pro-
Effectiveness of the oil, makes it an ideal
district for production Of butter and
cheese; dairymen are taking more in
Iterest in the breed and care Of stock.
! With the genuine butter COW, such
as few here have as yet, much better
results may be obtained, though even
now the luxurient pasturage enables
the cows to furnish an abundance Of
rich milk. with more than an average
of butter fat. A modern equipped
creamery is in operation in Astoria,
furnishing the farmers a ready sale
for their cream, at an average price for
the year of 22ls cents per pound for
butter fat; and the cows yield. under
good care. about 225 pounds of butter
fat per year. There is general inter.
est in increasing the dairy business;
many of the dairymen are preparing TO
enlarge their herds. and new daries are
being started. Ever growing grass
and the best market in the world MAXI
this an inviting field for those who
understand the care Of cows.
All the Oregon coast country. espe-
cially that near the mouth of the Co.
lumbia river, is very similar to the
great dairying sections of Europe, such
as Denmark, Holland and the Channel
islands. The winters. however, are
milder and the summers dryer.
The lands best adapted to grass.
growing are the tidelands, which are
river bottoms adjoining the Colum,
bia or its branches, and overfiowed by
the highest tides. These lands may be
reclaimed by diking, at an expense Of
about $40 per acre. BY diking large
tracts by machinery-w,th steam
dredges-the expense may be reduced,
and more substantial dlkes erected. one
acre of tideland has been shown TO be
ample for keeping one COW the entire
year, There are still in Clatsop county
about 10000 acres OF tldeland to be
diked. much Of it being easily cleared
after the diking is done. This is no
experiment. as many OF the best dairy
farms have been made on dlked tide
land.
