Wanted-A Farmers Boy

do you know where l can get
steady young man, raised on a farm,
to fill a job in the seed department
of this firm?" This question was put
to the editor of The Ranch the other
day by Mr.. Frank Leckenby, of the
G. H. Lilly Co.
Surely" was the answer; "you
should have no difficulty in getting
some one here in Seattle. There are
hundreds of young men in this city
seeking employment"
Yes, they come in here in f1ocks,"
said he, "but the average city-raised
boy isn't worth shucks. They are
all looking for soft snaps They
want to wear tailor-made clothes and
sit around and hand out advice to
the boss on how to run the business.
They get chill if you ask them to
carry bundle down the streets, be-
cause Mrs. j. G. Haines, the society
leader, might see them, and thereby
queer their chances of getting their
names into the Blue Book. What we
want in this place are young men who
are willing to do real work, and to do
that work to the very best OF their
ability. Send me wide-awake farm
er's boy of from Is to Fl years OF
age. who is the possessor Of a good
constitution and blessed with the rare
quality of common sense, and we will
give him a good permanent job, and
will pay him whatever he is worth.

The young man who will buy a
farm in the Willamette Valley now
and manage it intelligently will be a
prince in a few years, according to
the opinion expressed by Director
Withycombe, of the Oregon Agricul-
tural Experiment Station at Corval
lis And DR.. Withycombe knows what
ne is talking about. The remark need
not have been limited to the William
cite Valley, however, for it applies
just as well to the coast country and
TO parts of Eastern Oregon. The
willamette Valley is perhaps the
pleasantest part of Oregon in which
TO make home, and because of it's
superb water powers and its variety
OF resources it has the promise of
most rapid development. But in the
coast country there are no fruit pests
ana pastures are green all summer
IN Eastern Oregon the soil and eli
mate are particularly adapted to irri-
satlon, which makes the science of
agriculture almost as certain as
mathematics. Because it is not
reached by railroads the coast coun-
Try is behind the rest of the state

portation facilities to give it such an
Impetus as will surpass the expecta-
IONS of the most sanguine. Much
me same condition prevails in the in
'eflor of Eastern Oregon, where the

For Inspector of Diaries

e. A. Mcdonald, State Food In
spector of Washington, announces
that the present legislature will be
asked to create the office of inspector
of diaries. In recent interview Mr..
Mcdonald said:
eve expect to have an inspector OF
diaries provided for by the next legis-
lature. Under the present system OF
individual separators the butter pro-
duced by the creameries OF the state
is not up to what it was under the
old system. When the farmers took
their milk to a creamery and had it
skinned the butter produced was SUI
perior to that produced now. 1t is no
purpose of the state in any way to
prevent or discourage the use OF sepa-
rators. The plan is to educate the
farmers to the great necessity OF SAM
tation. BY the introduction Of the
separator the farmer became less
careful about his premises where milk
was kept. The milk is not cooled as
the science of the business requires.
and the consequence is that a poor
grade of butter is produced all over
the state. We want to have inspect
ors to visit every dairy farm in the
state once a month and see that the
premises are maintained in a sani-
tary condition. Before a permit will
be issued to sell the cream 80 points
must be made by each applicant. Ii
is necessary that the state take this
matter in hand"

The largest consignment of bene-
fetal parasites ever imported into the
United States to kill off pests has
been received by the California Hor-
ticultural Commissioner. There were
more than 1900 of the parasites in all.
They are all to be used for the propa
cation of the millions of lice that are
expected to exterminate the Goblin
moth in California, and thereby to add
millions of dollars to the annual value
of the apple crop of that state. They
were received from George Compere
who secured them in travels in South
ern Europe. 1t is believed that they
are the proper insects to do the most
good. The first of the Goblin moth
destroyers will hatch out in the Ferry
building, and the first distributions
will be made among the horticultur
lists of the state during the coming
year.

The Dairy Commissioner of Oregon
favors raising the standard of butter
fat in milk from 8 to 31a per cent.
He will urge that the dairy law be
so changed at the next session of the
legislature. 1t is understood that
Washington's Dairy Commissioner is
also DESTROYS of seeing the standard
raised from to 81 per cent.
