YOU ARE WELCOME.

At this time Pendleton is a rem
devious for the high school people of
Eastern oregon. In response to an
invitation from this city an eastern
Oregon high school oratorical contest
will be held this evening and tomor-
row a field meet will be pulled off.
To those who are here for the COM
ing contests Pendleton extends most
cordial welcome. This city takes
pride in the. fact that it is an edu-
cational center and being such it al
ways appreciates the presence of stu
dents and others who are actively con-
nected with the school work of the
state.
Those now here for the scholastic
contests represent the principal high
schools of eastern Oregon and conse-
quently are good types of the vigor-
Gus young manhood Of this section of
the state. May they all enjoy their stay
ia the city and may the best men win
both upon the oratorical platform and
upon the athletic field.

FIGHTING THE FLY.

The housefly has long been regard
ed by thrifty housekeepers as pest.
But it remained for the modern med
ical men to indict the fly as being one
OF the greatest agencies for the
spreading of disease. The response
bility of the fly in the matter of
spreading certain kinds of disease is
now we'll known, but in spite of this
people are not as alert as they should
be in efforts to destroy the pest.
This Indifference to the dangers ar
ising from the prevalence of flies re-
Gently caused DR.. L. o. Howard, chief
of the chronological bureau of the
department of agriculture, to express
himself as follows:
Even If the typhoid or housefly
were a creature difficult to destroy,
the general failure on the part of the
communities to make any efforts
whatever to reduce its numbers could
probably be termed criminal neglect;
but since 1t is comparatively an easy
matter to do away with the plague OF
flies. the neglect becomes an evidence
oe ignorance or Of carelessness In re-
gard to disease-producing filth which,
to the informed mind, constitutes
serious blot on civilized methods Of
life"
That the fly may be practically
eliminated has been shown by the re-
suits obtained at military maneuver
camps during the past few years.
During the maneuvers at American
Lake last August about 5000 men
were encamped and the regulars re-
mained for month or longer. But
by the use Of crude petroleum in the
latrines and by the careful observ-
ance Of certain regulations in the
camp kitchens flies were practically
barred from the camp. Sickness was
almost unknown.
What can be accomplished at a
hastily prepared military camp is
certainly possible elsewhere. In per-
manent homes and communities It
should not be hard to eliminate
housefiies completely. II such could

ATHENA'S GOOD WORK.

Those who attended the farmers
picnic at Athena Saturday are loud
in praise of the enterprise shown by
the citizens of that little city. The
picnic was held in the newly acquir-
ed park, one of the finest little groves
in eastern Oregon. 1t was this grove,
more than anything else, that made
the picnic a pleasant one.
The requirement of the grove by
the town came about as a result of
the purchase of the Ogle tract ad-
joining Athena. This tract had lain
almost unused for years and in order
to convert it into small homes a group
of progressive business men formed a
company and bought the tract They
sold the grove to the city for park
purposes and will soon have many fam
lilies living upon the remainder of the
land.
The enterprise shown by the Athe-
ma people in this matter is certainly
commendable. Incidentally, the ex.
ample they have set might be fol.
lowed with profit by those living il
other towns within the county.

The story from Seattle regarding
the dispute between the Oregon COM
mission and the director of works
sounds like an account of an eastern
Oregon range war. 1t seems the hon
on the Oregon people by ordering a
peanut stand placed in front of the
building. Because he objected to
this move the superintendent of the
building is entitled to praise, though
it is too bad a show of force was

be done there would be far less ty-
phoid and kindred complaints.
WHAT 1T MEANS.

In all the discussion of the term
"dry farming" much misunderstand-
ing exists, says Chas. NJ. Harger in
the Review of Reviews. At the re-
cent congress there was an attempt
to change the organizations name to
arid Farming Congress-" In SIM
pie phrase it means a method of
farming that shall include deep plow-
ing and frequent pulverizing of the
top soil out of as well as during the
growing season. 1t is based on the
principle that the moisture falling in
rain or snow may sink into the earth
if the soil is loosened, Then that
there shall be kept above that moist
ened bed a close, fine blanket of dust
that shall prevent evaporation. If
the burrows be turned at right angles
to the prevailing winds of winter the
snow may be caught, and if the pull
verlzing harrow be sent over the field
after every rain, the seed is certain
to receive a maximum amount of sus-
tenance. If it does not get enough in
one season it may in two. and a crop
every alternate year, if a good one,
is ample return on cheap land. OF
course there must be good soil as a
basis-only irrigation can conquer
sand
To accomplish all this special ma
chinery has come into use. Horses
could not pull plows biting deep into
the tough, centuries-dried soil, so
powerful engines that roll majestical-
ly along with two dozen plows en-
train are in their places. Press drills
that plant the seed deep; pulverizing
harrows that break the surface into
powderlike fineness, and other ap-
pliances, are used. First get your
moisture, then raise crop on it," is
the formula adopted by one success
full farmer. He told how he had plow-
ed twelve inches deep, had narrowed
and cultivated-and then raised
thirty-five bushels of wheat, fifty
bushels of corn, and generous crops
of rough feed on each acre, finally
starting a profitable fruit orchard
all this on a rainfall of less than fif-
teen inches annually. Year after
year moisture-preservation has in
creased his supply and the soiI-bed
has constantly grown richer and deep

FRUIT GROWERS MEETING.


A meeting of the Fruit Growers
union has been called for Tuesday
evening. to be held in the council
rooms, and a full attendance is ex-
pected as several propositions of in
terest to the fruit growers of the pro-
ject will be up for discussion. Among
the most important matters TO be
given attention is the fall purchase of
trees, as the order should be placed
in due time to assure being well and
promptly filled.
This organization has been instru-
mental in promoting the interests or
the fruitgrower, although practically
in its infancy, and has plans for the
future, adequate to cope with the
fruit industry as it develops in this
section.

GOOD LAND.

Land in the Walla Walla and Mil
ton districts is selling for as hign
as five hundred dollars an acre, un-
improved. Around Echo it will reach
the same price in a few years. We
have as good climate, as abundant
water supply, as near market and
only lack the grown orchards to
prove to the settlers sight what can
be done

THE MODERN FARMER.

The difference between the farmer
of today and thirty years ago is the
difference between the old A drag
and the four horse harrow; between
the stable made of a few poles and a
straw pile and the red barn that takes
in all out doors; between a hazel
splitter and the four-square bulk of
a thoroughbred porker; between, Oh
that's difference enough, isn't it?
Perhaps we might add the difference
between a mortgage at 10 per cent
and a time deposit at per cent in
terest and that's only IA per cent of
the difference.
