CROPS LOOKING FINE
Oats Being Cut Wheat Abon, D., Cotton and Corn Promis.
 Good Yield

If any one had a douht the crop outlook in Polk coua,s a trip iato the country would co, vince such, that he was iu error
 A representative of The s,. drove out into Ouchita towushia. Tuesday to near Quito. .r', Y and found the farmers, of wbon' nearly 100 were seen, to be ;a very happy frame of mind 20 ~ prospects. Many are cu,,;. oats, and both this crop ,rd wheat, which is about readv s the blade, are said to be nrr.., iu quality and yield. More vhs.. by the way, was planted in ,h;s county the past fail than in mus a's years, if not more than s",y before. There is a strong de,as imitation among the farmers stop sending away good morsv for flour and wheat products
 The most disturbing condi,;on seems to be the lack of mill f,cJ ities in Polk county. Some are talking ot taking their wheat ,o, Waldron to have it ground.
 While the late freeze cany.d n ost of the corn to be repIan,eS 1t has done we'll and certsiplv promises a good crop now. Nocotton was caug Int by the fros, in Polk county, and the prospects are excellent, though warner weather is needed to Increase ,ba growth, But tbis IS probably at haud.
 One of the most encourapinv things found. so far ss the future. prosperity of Polk county is con. cernea, is the great interest be. ing cvinced in the raising of stock and the the accompanying saving and use of barnyard fertil ger.
 While much commercial serti- lizer is being used, almost every farmer considers it in the gh, of temporary expedient. de- pending upon the barnyald prod. uct and upon cowpeas and clover to build up the soil. The value of rye, wheat, etc for wiuIer cover crops to prevent the land washing and as winter pasture, is also being realized. Generally speaKing, the peach and apple crop was failure in this vicinity thIs year, the late freeze being at least largely re- ponsible. In some favored local- ities, however, there are heavy yields Of peaches, apples and plumes, and the owners of lhcse farms, recognizing that they are especially fortunate in this, ate. talking of putting out more fruit trees. There are many such spots tn Folk county-spots where the air, drainage and altitude are such that peaches are almost, if not quite immune from danger of lac , frosts.
 As they become k.own they will be selected by fruit growers of good common sense and will , be developed into profitable orch. ards, while other localities will be given over to less sensl i've crops.

The NeighbOrhOOd Trust.

Having been invited by member
of the Neighborhood Trust, to attend
their farewell dinner which was held
at the home of T. J. Cunning on the
Heights, | went the hill up at about
z. If had been a stranger in the city
| would have wondered where sc
many people were going, some by auto,
wagon and afoot. Some had trays OF
strawberries, others with baskets
filled with good things. | learned
later on that that was just fore
runner of the numerous good things
going to the trust. Sometime later
had the pleasure of assisting in getting
away with few of the delectables.
After dinner there were songs, reel
itations and impromptu speeches by
the members all of which were greatly
enjoyed.
Judging from the interest taken by
everyone in the event, and the cordla
good will shown by those present, a
continuation of these trust butsini
meetings next winter will prove al
interesting feature of the social lif'
in Hood River.
