For the next two weeks the pres
ence of the moon in the sky during
the morning hours will interfere de-
cidedly with observations of the COM
cts tail with the naked eye, but will
not entirely prevent it's being seen
with an opera glass. Fortunately,
the comet, during this period, will be
in a region of the heavens where
there are no bright stars which might
be mistaken for II. Indeed, to an eye
of average acuteness, the comets head
does not look exactly like a fixed star
II looks little larger (not brighter) A.,
ana gives the impression of being a
little bunch of light, rather than a
sharp point like a star.
The planet Venus is by far the
brightest object in tine eastern sky
after $3.50 am, being low down, a
little south of the east point of the
horizon. The comet on April 81 was
from Is to 90 degrees to the left of
Venus, at nearly the same height
above the horizon. On April 2S the
comet will be between 10 and 15 de-
grees to the left of Venus, and lit
/ tie higher up in the sky. On May S
the comet viii be only 10 degrees
from Venus, and about 8 degrees up.
On April 81 the comet rose at $3.50
am, and the best time to see it will
probably be from 3:45 to O'Clock.
On April 2S it rises at o'clock. and
the best time for looking at it will be
$3.50. On May it rises before 2:45,
and the most favorable time for view
ing it will probably be between 3:15
and $3.50. The most advantageous
time to observe the comet on a given
morning depends so much on the
amount of haze in the eastern sky
low down, that it is impossible to
foretell 1t accurately.
The Great Square of Pegasus af-
fords an easy way Of finding Halley's
comet, If one gets his eye on the star
Gamma Pegasi, which is in the lowest
corner of the square. Throughout
the period from April 21 to May tho
comet will be near point which is
one-third of the way from Gamma
Pegasi over to Venus. The longes
side of the Square is II degrees in
length, and the shortest ends 13 de-
grees. The three upper stars are oi
the second magnitude, but Gamma /.

which will not permit of large
amount of stock being wlntered on
the range. All stock so wintered
does well.
An abundance OF green pasture, the
excellent forage. the mild winters, the
number OF farms where blooded stock
Is raised, from which the stoclxman
can draw to improve the quality of his
herd or flock; all these contribute to
make stock raising an unqualified sue
cess in the fertile valley of which On

Dalrying.
To fully realize what the COW will
accomplish for the Ontario dairyman
II Is first necessary to understand what
can be done for the COW. The COW is
very sensitive to conditions, and In
and about Ontario everything is exact
ly to her liking. As a consequence,
she shows her great appreciation by
giving an excellent flow OF milk, rich
In butter fat. Mild winters, abundance
OF green feed, freedom from insect
pests and numerous other important
factors so to make for the success of
the fortunate dairyman in and about
Ontario.
In the vicinity of Ontario is the very
best dairy country in the Pacific
Northwest. Hay can be grown cheap.
and it is so productive that it makes
dairying very profitable. Ontario ship

Hot Springs.
Hot springs are abundant In nearly
every part of Malheur County, and 1t
Las long since been proven that the
medicinal properties of the waters are
the equal OF any OF the world-famous
hot springs which have been SO widely
advertised in various parts of the Uni
ted States and Europe. The great
feature OF the Malheur County hot
springs Is that the cost to the patient
who wishes to take advantage OF the
numerous fountains of nature Is not
prohibitive. Likewise, the cure for all
ailments is right at home. 30 to speak.
Every important hot spring in Nal

from Ontario, and this makes 1t very

Apicuiture.
Alfalfa honey Is a prize taker the
world over. Therefore. Ontario and the
fertile valley of which 1t is the center
make a natural home for the honey
bee. One of the secrets of the great
honey production is that a large acre
age of alfalfa is allcyed to go to seed.
Millions Of the little purple blooms OF
the lucerne clover into which the bees
can work even easier than into the
white clover, are here. This affords
product from bees that Is pure and
absolutely white. Honey Is destined
to become one of the largest articles
of export from Ontario because alfalfa

dustry.
Here are some honey producing
statements worth mentioning for this
section:
W. II. Pennington. living nine miles
from Ontario, handles 300 to 500 stand
of bees, producing annually about 400
pounds extracted honey, selling for
$3.50 per 100 pounds.
w. II. McKibben leased five acres
and put on $50 stands of bees. Last
fall he sold $4,000 pounds Of extracted
honey. receiving $4,000.
Grazing.
To those who come from the Middle
West and extreme East, upon reaching
Ontario and vicinity the impression is
at once conveyed that Ontario is
splendid grazing country. It is that in

Soils.
The soils 10 and about Ontario are
Of virgin character, for the most part
being composed OF disintegrated rock
and volcanic ash and other elements
at first hand of Nature, never having
been exhausted by the manifold pro
cesses OF vegetable life. The soils are
of a rich, sandy loan nature, and
much better and far more enduring
in all the varied elements required for
perfect crops than the soils of any
of the Middle Western or Eastern
States.
The soils are unfailing in productiv-
ity and such things as crop failures are
unknown quantities in and about On
tario. The broad bottoms are per-
good markets close at her doors. Ad-
jacent mining camps consume much,
but by far the greatest advantage en-

every sense of the word. Cattle, sheep,
swine and horses are all raised and
fed and sold at handsome profit to
producers.
Ontario has about it the best free
range in the world. Thousands of
horses and cattle remain on the range
the year round, while the higher
grades are brought to the valleys for
winter feeding.
Annual shipments OF wool are from
100000 to 100000 pounds; cattle,
$4,000 head; horses $4,000 head; stock
and mutton sheep. $4,000 head.
These figures speak volumes for the
stock raising industry and testify to
the splendid grazing quality of the
land that ships from Ontario. Plenty

If 20 per cent of the voters as

Gil must then either pass 1t or
call a special election, unless a
general election is within so days,
at which the people will vote on
the proposition.
If the people wanted municipal
ownership of street railways, fo-
instance, 20 per cent OF the voters
could force an election to let the
people say so. If they wanted 10

tablish a municipal wood yard TO

matter what they want they can
have chance at 1t now. But ,ne

If only five per cent of the vot-
