More Dairy Cows Needed in Oregon.

Cream is being shipped into Port.
land from California, Utah and Idaho,
to be made into Hazelwood butter.
OF course, it il easy to understand
why the farmers ship cream from such
distances. The HaZelwoOd people
have built up great demand for Ha.
zlewood butter and they have to get
sufficient ere M to supply that de.
man1. They pay for cream on the
basis of the selling price of Hazelwood
butter, which sells at a figure consid.
elably above the price obtained fol
other brands of butter. lhey buy all
the cream they can get at this extra
price which gives the California,
Utah and Idaho dairymen an oppor-
tunity to dispose of their product on
market that makes their daiIies pro-
fltable.
Our farmers are overlooking a great
opportunity if they do not take ad-
vanage Of this situation. The demand
for cream is increasing all the time,
and Is steady every day in the year.
Every farmer should invest in good,
cream producing COWS, and build up
a herd that will be constant and
steady source of income. The price
paid for cream is bound to earn a big
profit for the dairyman as cream is
now boughtso the basis of the selling
price Of butter into which it is made.
With this butter bringingia price that
makes 1t profitable far dairymen to
ship cream one thousand miles, it GER
tainly assures Oregon and Washington
dairymen a much greater profit.

To Revive Old rrnit rrses.

A hoIticulturise claims that after
several years OF experimenting he has
discovered way to revive old fruit
trees and keep them in bearing condi.
tion long after their suppose stage OF
usefulness has passed. As the cause Of
decay in tres is its inability to car
ry the sap to all of Its branches, head
ing the tree lessons the area to be o.
moved varying-according to the far
mer's judg ,Ient. Bone dust and
pshes must then be administered as a
fertilizer, the one in the autumn and
the other in tho spring 1t Is neces-
sary to introduce the bone dust
through holes in the ground near the
roots of the tree, while the ashes may
be sprinkled over the top snrface OF
the earth. The ashes leach and will
not wash down. A question naturally
arises as to how far from the body uf
the tree the holes for the fertilizer
mnst run. The scientist says you
must tie cord about the body of the
tree SO loosely that it will turn freely,
leavin one free end. With his loose
end, describe circle six or eight feet
from the hole Of the tree. Lengthen
the line for each circle, continuing
until the last circle is sixteen or. eigh-
teen feet from the tree. Make holes
about four Inches deep and a foot
apart or each circle, and put..about a
gill of bone dust in each hole. The
remedy Is sure to revive old trees, in
creasing their bearing and lengthening
their lives for many years.

Lead in Quantity but not In Quality

The following figures show the apple
output of five of the leading apple
growing states. 1t is pretty safe to
say, that twenty years hence, other
states IN the west and Pacific north
west, will enter into the fruit es-
Inmates much more largely than they
do now, and ale likely to reverse pre-
sent conditions So far as quality,
appearance and general selling features
are concerned, eastern growers are
clearly outclassed.
The production by the states re-
ferred to is as follows:
Illinois, 5000, 900 bushels Of apples,
and l3, 1000, 600 trees Kansas, 5000, 600
bushels of apples and II, 900, 900 trees {;
Missouri, 100000 bushels of apples,
and 20,0O0,00 trees; Michigan 3, 3,0OO,-
600 bushels of apples and 10, 900, 600
trees; Arkansas, 1000, 900 bushels Of
apples and 1000, 600 trees.
Secretary George Foster, of the Hi
nois State horticultural Society, in
commenting on the situation in that
state, says:
despite the fact that Illinois leads
in the growth OF apples, it Is a rare
thing to see any effort toward replac-
ing the old orchards that die out or to
enlarge the acreage of apple trees.
Farmers seem to believe that their
primary object is the growing Of corn,
and the majority neglect the side is
sues. Few attempts to grow apples
for family use, while most farmers de-
clare that apples are not suited to the
black soil of this state and that the
growing is not profitable.
"The a pie growers who combine to
produce the 1900, 600 bushels that go
to the credit of Illinois each year are
prohting by the ignorance of agricui.
turists who hold fast to the view that
the state is not suited to apple grow
ing. The illinois Horticultural So
ciety has inaugurated campaign to
combat the false idea entertained by
so many farmers, and hopes to in.
crease the output of the fruit many
mi lion bushels in the next few years. "
So it seems that the Illinois society
is taking up the necessity Of produc-
ing better fruit there by adopting up
to date methods, and generally by
showing farmers that "apple growing
is a great and profitable business,
instead of side issue to corn raising
and the production of pork. While
this is correct, it will be necessary
doubtless to do whole lot Of demon
strating'' to convince many OF the
tanners of the fact. They will be
slow to catch on.-Gem State Rural.

ARE LAND PRICES
HERE TOO HIGH

Charleston, Wash, May %. TO the
Editor of the Spokesman. Review An
eastern critic-a warm friend and ar
dent worker for the Inland Empire
says that prices for farming and fruit
lands, particularly irrigated lands, In
this section are 80 high that they have
tendency to trighten would be set.
tiers. He cites particularly some ir-
rigated tracts near prosperous towns
that have sold as high as $1,000 to $500
per acre; also boG esteatled lands not
yet irrigated, but lying under the
lines Of proposed government irIiga-
tion canals. In one case homestead
er in the sagebrush calmly named to
him price of 500 per acre for land
without sign of an irrigation canal
except on the engineers maps.
Near to North Yakima, Wenatchee,
Charleston, Walla Walla and other pros
porous towns improved irrigated
tracts frequently change hands at
from $500 to Sl5O0 per acre without
buildings. The ca, elul observer may
note for himself around any of these
towns that miles measures prices as
we'll as distances. Within 25 miles Of
Charleston or Yakima good irrigated
lands may be bought at $50 up to $500
per acre, depending wholly upon de-
tails of improvement, distances, local
ity, transportation, etc. IL man
wants the convenience of sidewalks,
electric lights, pressure water service,
proximity to schools and churches,
he is usually willing to pay for them.
If he pays at all, the price of these
concomitants of civilization are in
clnded in the price of the land.
In nearly l3 years. experience in the
irrigated arid valleys of this coast, the
number of improved irrigated tracts
within my observation which have not
constantly increased in value are a
wholly negligible quantity in the con-
sideration of our land values. And
why notY At the lowest end of the
scale we have alfalfa lands yielding,
with good cultivation, four to six tons
per acre, worth in the stack from s.
to So per ton net. At the other end
of the scale Of our valley lands pro-
duce choice fruits yielding all the way
from $3.50 to $4,000 per acre.
Our wheat lands also, lying 1000
miles distant from Chicago, the great
central grain market of the world,
seem high in price at $40 to $50 per
acre to the immigrsnt from Illinois
and Iowa. Bnt when it is known that
the wheat lands of the Columbia river
basin are unquestionably the richest
in the world that the cultivated lands
of Washington last year produced an
ozouooo % nnn,I1 GOO VaH oouo oOaiua az
about Sll per acre for the farms of
Iowa, Sl4 for those of California and
less than $40 for those of Ksnsas-then
we may realize that even our agricul-
tural prairie lands may still be bought
at reasonable prices. The fact is that,
depending upon location and trans
portation, some of our finest nonirri-
gable uplands, as to productiveness,
may yet be bought at all the way from
$40 to $50 per acre.

Nursery Neede ed In Mexico.

The United States consul, V. L..
Duhaime, OF Saltillo, reports that
there is not fruit-tree nursery in all
Mexico, and suggests to American
nurserymen of push and energy that
they could succeed in that republic.
The consul says that fruit of the high
est grade can be raised, all attitudes
being available from the sea level to
5337 feet. Apples and pears thrive in
the elevated regions, while there are
excellent opportunities for raising
peaches, grapes and plums. The con-
sumption of fruit in the Mexican
cities is large, much of it coming from
the United States. .-r.
