ROSE FARM OF TWELVE ACRES.

One of the most interesting
sights in the Pomona valley is the
development work now being
done by the California Rose cofl1-
pany on its rose farm at the foot
of White avenue. Here may be
seen literally acres of roses, the
slips being planted a few weeks
ago, covering the entire twelve
acre tract, in rows about three
feet apart.
The plants are about six inches
in height, and here and there
over the tract many of them are
in bloom. It will be a beautiful
sight when the rose bushes are
grown to two or three feet in
height, all in bloom.
The work of irrigating and
tending the plants at this time of
year REQUIRES about twenty-five
men. From December until
April, during the shipping sea-
son, probably fifty to seventyfive
people will be kept busy. At
this season the young plants are
being pushed as rapidly as tender
care, good soil, the available
amount of sunshine and constant
irrigating will accomplish it,

As / passed through your town
on my way to visit q brother and
some nephews l have in North
Dakota, / subscribed for your pa

and put up at Grand View
Hotel until my brother came af-
ter me next day and then we had
to drive IS miles to a little post
office called Loweton, just across
the line into Canada, where my
brother had homesteaded after
renting his farm in Dakota.
Ihave found this country in the
Northwest far ahead of my ex-
pectations. It seems to be
a great country for small
grain, such as wheat, oats, flax,
etc. It was quite a show to me
to see the farmers running their
gang plows with eight horses
abreast breaking the raw prairie
sod.
l can look out and see green
fields of wheat running for miles
and miles just as green as can
be and the soil seems to be just
as rich and fertile as our best
river bottoms in Russell county.
l was told by some farmers in
this section they make 30 BUSH
els of wheat and from so to Is
bushels oats per acre. I am sat-
isfed they certainly raise good
feed of some kind for / never
in all my life saw as many big
fine work teams as have since
coming to this part of the world
and by the way everything seems
to be in a rush and emigrants
are coming in this neighborhood
from all parts of the compass
and they all seem to be good
healthy men and women and in
truth good neighbors all whom
I have talked with appear to be
in a fine humor and very lively.
They have a little town here
just four years old, Estevan is
it's name and almost as large as
Columbia now with 48 new build
ings now going up, with two
banks and one news paper.

FROM CAlLAO MISSOURI.

Editor, News
Having read an account of the
meeting Of the Home Corners at
Columbia l wish to say it brought
fresh recollections of days gone
by.
Some twenty-five years ago
when l left the farm on Russell
creek near Columbia, I came to
north Missouri, after coming to
Missouri l settled in Bevier, a
mining town of 4 or 5 thousand
inhabitants, after living there
for ten years l purchased and
moved to a farm northwest of
Callao, Macon comfy, near the
Charlton river. A portion of my
farm is on the Charlton bottom.
Generally north Missouri is a
stock county, most all kinds Of
stock being raised extensively
including horses, mules, cattle,
sheep and hogs. Land sells at
from $25 to $50 per acre owing
to = location and improvements.
It will produce from one to two
tons of timothy, clover and hay
per acre. The yield of corn is
from so to 60 bushels per acre.
Wheat and oats are also profta-
bly, grown.
On account of the continued
dry weather in the early Sum-
mer, the hay crop will be short.
Oats will be light this season.
Wheat crop is good, also fine
prospect for corn. We have a
heavy crop of peaches, and the
apple crop is above the average.
In conclusion will say to my
friends in Old Adair County, I
would like the best kind to have
met with you. but l hope to live
so that some day when l am done
with the battles of life, will be
able to meet you in a reunion
where there will be no parting.
Your friend,
A. WATSON.

The Kentucky Railroad Com
mission last week, after several
months of investigation, rendered
a decision materially reducing
freight rates in the State. The
L. & N. road has the greatest
mileage in the State and is prob
ably affected more seriously than
any other road operating in the
State. In substance the decision
directs that rates on the l.. & N.
for hauls of ten miles or less be
reduced 20 per cent; for hauls
longer than ten miles Is per cent.
Other roads are required to regu-
late their scale of rates to CORE
spont with those of the L. & N.

Peach and Pear Trees are In Bloom
In Pensacola.
pensacola Journal.)

Peach and pear trees in a number
of places adjacent to Pensacola are
in full bloom, and although winter
is approaching the orchards resemble
the spring of the year. This peculiar
condition of affairs has been noticed
for several days past in various sec
lions, but how far from Pensacola
has not been aseertained-
Some attribute the blooming of the
trees to the hurricane, but how the
wind blowing at one hundred miles
an hour could cause this freak of ma
ture has not yet been determined.
But it is nevertheless a fact that
the fruit bearing trees are in full
bloom in many places in the city
and also in many sections adjacent
thereto, and the trees have taken on
life the same as though spring was
just approaching.

Work ON Cotton Warehouse to Com
mence at Once.

The Suwannee County Cotton
Growers Association met at the
courthouse Saturday, October %.
President Umstead called the meet
ing to order.
Minutes of last meeting read and
approved with one exception, asking
for more time by Finance Committee.
]. N. Meeks, member of the finance
committee, reported that he had ex-
amined the treasurer's books and
found them correct. He had not as
yet examined the secretary's books.

anime them.

O'Clock. Called to order by Presi-
dent Umstead, who, in a few words,
introduced the able State Secretary
F. G. Schell, who had been invited to
address the Association. Secretary
6chell made a very instructive talk,
advising the Farmers Unions and
Cotton Growers Association to get
together and hold their cotton for
better prices; cautioned them to be
careful and not throw all their cot
ton on the market at one time as it
would certainly cause the price to de-
cline.
C. H. Brown, Chairman of the
Building Committee. reported that
contractor would commence work at
once upon the cotton warehouse
building.
There being no further business,
Association adjourned until the regu-
lar meeting in November.
