while In favored locations most ex-
cellent peaches may be raised: but
care must be taken by planting late
blooming, hardy varieties of all these
fruits, because OF late frosts.
The evidence Of what small fruits
will do Is found In the wealth OF wild
berries. All the berries may be
grown to great advantage as soon as
a market becomes available.
The richness of the soil and the
ease with which It is worked make
the klamath section a vast potential
garden. Hore, with irrigation, inten-
slye cultivation will be widely prac-
tlced. The careful cultivation that
makes land in sections Of Southern
California, the San Joaquin. Sacra-
mento, Santa Clara, Pajaro, Arroyo
Grande and other California valleys
worth hundreds OF dollars per acre
will produce the same result here.
The klamath Basin Is already a
great native pasture-land. and when
are added alfalfa, clover, etc, II vill
be an unexcelled dairy country. At
present cattle and sheep occupy the
fields. There are many Herefords
and some Shorthorns. Devons and
Galloways. But with the coming of
easy transportation will come the day

of these. the three largest cover two

Development has been retarded by
lack OF immigration and lack OF
transportation.
The annual precipitation Of sixteen

crops. The SIskiyou and Cascade
Mountains presented a strong barrier
to railroad builders. Therefore. with
a trunk limo Of railway hardly fifty
miles to the west. and the largest
body of fresh water available for ir-
rigntion west Of the Mississippi at It's
very door. this rich region has been
little more than Il pasture for cattle
and sheep. It's lnkcs and marshes
homes for untold numbcrs Of wild
fowl. and its forests and mountains
but the haunts OF wild animals.
All this is to be changed marve-
lously by two factors Government

may be grown to perfection. Two
(and In favored sections 'hree) crops
are cut each year. and after the last
harvest the vigorous growths permit
of pasturage for stock.
The klamath section will rival
eastern Washington and Oregon In
wheat production, both In quality and
quantity. Land well cultivated and
with plenty of water yields afty BUSH

farming secures from twelve to twen-
ty bushels. The average. under fav-

coin is for you, Clarence, because men

THE e pluribus unum.' which you
know Is translated One OF many,

would like to have this is the only

"The 13 stars, being an unlucky
number, indicate the hard luck many
of us have in our efforts to gather in
the quantity of these coins we really

around the rim tell you that by work

probably accumulate enough to see

In a recent sermon DR.. Charles II.

OF the present-day American life.
American hustle is putting its
blight upon everything that really de-

Gently been informed by one who has
had exceptional opportunity to &C
quaint himself with the facts that with
all the crowding and prodding that dis

there is less to show for 1t than Is
secured by the more steady and COM
posed discipline of German instruc-
ton.
"A German is never in a hurry, but
he does as much as an American, and
does 1t better and more thoroughly
and with less wrench to himself and to
other people. And when IT comes to
question of military genius and prepa-
