MODEL FARM ABOUT READY.
ROsalla Experiment Station Is Near
inc Perfection.

The new experiment farm being in
stalled adjoining Rosalia by citizens
to be operated by Mr.. Seneca. late o
the experiment station of the Wash,
ington State college, under the direc.
tion of Professor Elliott head of the
department of agriculture in thai
school, is progressing nicely" says a
Rosalia correspondent of the Spokes.
man-Review.
The farm consists of 90 acres and
is less than a mile from Rosalia. A
modern barn is being built and other
improvements will be made, A por-
tion Of the farm will be planted to or
chard and small fruits. Alfalfa, clo-
Yer and other grasses will be grown,
Five Jersey cows have been purchas-
ed and a number of hogs and chick
ems will be placed on the farm.
The object of the farm is to show
what can be done on small farms in
this vicinity, Mr.. Seneca has under
taken to produce not less than $1,000
worth of products per year from the
20 acres This means $50 per acre,
and it is argued that il this can be
done annually the value of the land
will advance rapidly.
If this small farm is the success
that is expected, 1t Is likely the same
plan will be tried on larger tracts.
the talk now being to try a farm of
40 and another of 80 acres using
scientific methods and farming the
land intensely, raising crops every
year and never summer following.
The result of this experiment will
be watched with deep interest by a
great many people. 1t is along the
line suggested in one of out recent
editorials and is. we believe, as prac-
tical work as the state can enter in
TO, especially when these stations can
be made self-supporting, or very
nearly so.

TO EXTEND TO SNAKE RIVER.
Electric Line From Boise Will Tap
Rich District.

One of the most feasible PROPOSE
tions which has come up in the rail-
road discussion is the proposed road
OF the Boise & Interurban railroad.
This road is to continue on from
Caldwell to the Snake river, says a
Caldwell item. This is to intersect a
boat line which will ply on the river
from Huntington to Swan Falls. The
Interurban is also to run from Cald-
well to Payette, and on to Weiser.
This will make quick transportation
between all of these towns and be the
means OF making a thickly settled
country all the way up and down the
Boise and Payette valleys.
The proposed road from Caldwell
to Snake river will probably be COM
menced in the near future for II has
been definitely stated that the plans
and data have all been prepared and
that movements are on foot to fl
nance the proposition,

WALL FROM PRINEVILLE.
Pcssimlstlc View Of the Crook County
Situation.

The Prineville Review prints the
following pessimistic item on Prime
vile conditions as a result of prohi-
bition
The maddest man in town is Mayor
Wurzweiler. He has the city finan-
ces on his hands, and as it is heavily
in debt he naturally wants to clear
up some of the bills against it and
finish his term with his usual good
record for economy,
But it's all off now, unless an oc-
cupation tax be levied upon business
houses and professional men to meet
the deficit caused by closing up the
saloons. The mayor hasn't called a
meeting Of the council yet, and prob
ably will not until he thinks he has
the means of getting the problem
solved.
We do not deem an occupation tax
advisable, and the council will un-
doubtedly share this view. 1t is COM
posed entirely of business men who
would resent the imposition of a tax
on their businesses. And an attempt
to tax professional men would have
exactly the same effect as ordering
almost half of them to leave the city.
So 1t is presumed that the city af-
fairs will be allowed to drift as they
are for time or until the people
grow accustomed to the new order
of things and are willing to dig down
into their pockets for any money the
city may happen to need. Everything
will straighten out in time.

CONSERVING MOISTURE FOR INLAND
EMPIRE FARMS

For a compacting tool the Camp
bell subsurface packer type Of tool
will pack the bottom Of the furrOw
and leave the surface almost un-
touched. This tool consists of a Sc
ries of skeleton wheels with wedge
shaped rims about one inch wide and
five inches apart. A tool Of this type
should follow the plow pretty closely
and II the soil is getting dry or there
is considerable trash to plow under,
It should be gone over twice with the
packer The subsequent working of
the soil, whether in a cultivated crop
or a summer fallow should be suffi-
cient to keep clean of weeds and keep
a loose, dry and moderately fine
mulch on the surface.
Weeds sap the moisture from the
soil and use up available plant food.
Whenever rain beats down the mulch
the soil needs narrowing to renew the
mulch. To cut off the weeds and
loosen the soil, mulch as frequently
as Is usually necessary without filming
the surface too much. A knife type
of harrow or cultivator is the best
These are made in all sorts of forms
and for all sorts Of pieces, but the es-
sentlal thing is to include a knife or
a series of short knives or shears that
will cut under the surface, cutting
off all weeds and permitting the soil
to slide back over the shear and lie
very loose without being much pull
verized. A proper use of the Camp
bell subsurface packer type Of COM
pacting tool, and the knife type Of
harrow and cultiyator will do much
toward solving the moisture prob
lem, and will largely overcome the
objection so commonly urged against
thorough working Of soil to be seed
ed in wheat.

NORTHWESTERN COMING.
Idaho and Oregon Will BE Tapped
by New Line to the Coast.

Another report confirming the ru-
NOR that a proposed extension Of the
Northwestern railroad through south
ern Idaho and Boise on through
southern Oregon with a view to es-
tabllshlng a terminal at San Francis
co, has been brought to this city by
f. w. Hatch, Of Chicago, travelling
representative in the west of the
Wycroff Advertising agency Of Buff
falo, n. Y, who arrived here the lat
ter part Of last week from the Pa
cific coast country, says the Boise
Capital News.
It was learned from Mr. Hatch to-
day that there seems to be little ques-
tlon but that the proposed line into
southern Idaho is the ultimate pur-
pose of the extension Of the North
western, for which surveys have been
run into parts of this state and are
now being established towards Boise.
He states that the primary idea Of
the promoters is to extend the road
from Lander, Wyo., through southern
Idaho to Boise and either make this
city its terminal or extend the line
from here through eastern Oregon
striking a pass over to the Pacific
coast in the southern part of the last
named state, coming out Of the noun
tains near Medford, and then run
ming parallel with the Southern Pa
cific IN San Erancisco
At the present time Lander is the
terminal of the Northwestern and al
though that city has been dead, 50 20
speak, for a long time, it is now
booming owing to the increased traf-
fic 1t has obtained through the rail-
road and its future prospects Of being
one of the main cities on the western
While reports of proposed railroad |
extensions have been numerous in this |
city for some years past, Mr.. Hatch |
Is inclined to think that the North |
western people are aiming to connect
Boise with the east. This means in |
the end a through railroad for Boise.
