Boys worse.

elm the delinquent cases, as usual,
the boys outnumber the girls about six
to one, and the majority of cases arise
from those of the Hawaiian race. Of
the 3s1 delinquent cases, 257 were adj
mitted to probation provided for in the
act, of which number "a are now pend
ing under probation, 90 have been sur
rendered and committed to the indus
trial school, and 1877 have served their
terms of probation and been discharged.
The figure 20, therefore, would indicate
the number of failures of those adj
mitted TO probation and the figure 1877
the number of successes. We deem this
showing as most encouraging, and indi-
eating that, so far as Juveniles are con-
cerned, the system of probation is, in
the majority of cases, successful.

nected with this court, the court itself
has received from dependents on proba-

has been kept of the number Of homes

AS to the coming year this court
begs to urge two recommendations. "a
That an appropriation be made to en-
able the court to partially recompense
persons taking dependent cases into
their care and custody. The mainte-
nance of a juvenile in a public institution
costs the Territory, or city and county,

The departmental committee which
prepared the plans and regulations for
the new savings banks holds sessions
daily for the consideration of questions
arising during the experimental stage
of the system. The result of its DELHI.
erations are finally submitted to the
board of trustees, which is composed of
the general, the secretary
of the treasury and the attorney
general.
1T was explained at the department
yesterday that no information as to the
amount of the deposits in any of the
new banks would be made public for
obvious reasons.
Taking the reports as a whole, said
Theodore l.. Weed, chief clerk Of the
department and secretary of the board
of trustees, they are satisfactory and
show that thus far the new system is
moving smoothly.

AS announced in last weeks
issue, the Tigers went to Miles
City on Sunday evening to play
a series of three games with an
"all-star" team which the Eagles
of that city had got together for
the occasion from the pick of
several fast teams, including
Bismarck, Mandan, Dickinson
and others.
The first game of the series was
played on Monday, when the
Tigers carried off the bacon after
twelve innings Of fast playing,
winning by a score Of z to 4, of
which Tuesdays Miles City Daily
Star has the following account:
Wibaux and Miles City met in
a battle royal on the local base
ball field yesterday. 1t was a
great treat for the handful Of
fans that attended the game, and
for IL long innings the locals held
the all-salaried Wibaux team to a
tie of A to 4. The game was full
of sensational plays on both sides
that kept the fans in a state Of
continuous excitement.

into consideration this would not
cast any reflection upon the base

of either team.
The features of the game were
the pitching of Babcock for Miles
City and Cadreau for WibauX.
Bunker, Miles City third base

with an average of .75O. making
three hits out of four times at bat.

Montana Flax

Recent experiments in the
growing of flax by dry farming
in eastern Montana, though in
complete, have given promise of
most excellent results. From an
examination of the size and fibre
Of the growing plants, it is con-
fidently expected that Montana
flax will be the equal of any that
is grown in this country. The
prospects for a large yield per
acre are good, and if the expert
menters meet with no disappoint-
ment to their hopes, a new field
of endeavor will be opened in
Montana. Oregon is sending an
expert to Europe for the purpose
of making an exhaustive study Of
the flax industry, with special
reference to developing it in Ore
gon. He will spend several
months in Ireland, England, Bel
gium and Holland. Oregon flax
is noted for length, fineness,
strength, gloss and elasticity.
Farmers in the Willamette valley
are ready to contract for raising
any reasonable quantity, on be-
ing assured a market for the
moved or reaped fax on the field
at figures equal to those now paid
by the Minnesota mills for the
far poorer qualities raised there.
Several specimens of flax pro-
duced this year on a big farm
near Salem, had a length of for
ty-eight to fifty-two inches. The
seed was sown in April, and the
stalks pulled July 7th. By July
26th this crop will be ripe. For

The name Of the new town is

score -15 to O-will Indicate.
Cadreau was in the box for the
Tigers and pitched a splendid
game, allowing but four scatter
ed hits.
Owing to the fact that the
score book was left in Miles City
the Pioneer is unable to give the
box score of the last two games.
The third game was also a
walk-away for the Tigers, when
Brown stepped into the box for
the first time since on the team,
and done splendid work, allowing
but five hits. Brownlee twirIed
for Miles and worked nice for the
first couple of innings, but weak
ened in the fourth and was re-
lieved by Babcock, who got away
fairly well, considering the sup
port. The score was 10 toe
At all of the three games the
attendance was rotten, which
would indicate that Miles Cityites
are poor losers, or else it's a poor
baseball town.

Valuation Close
to Ten Million
Assessed Valuation of
Dawson Makes An
other Big Advance

With an increase of more than
25 percent in it's assessed valua-
ton independent of any possible
advance in railroad valuation to
be determined later = Dawson
county this year scars almost to
the ten million mark, and goes
into the ranks Of counties Of the
fifth class.
Last years total assessed valu-
alton Of all kinds of property was
81, 1862, 214, while Assessor Fred
Bean has just compiled this years
total at $9,877,646.
The state Board Of Equalization
usually raises the railroad valua-
ton about 10 percent, although
the valuation per mile is now
close to $40, 900, and it may not
be materially increased this year.
Last year it stood at 81, 3O3, IT'S.
An increase Of 10 percent on that
amount would easily carry the
total valuation past the ten-mil~
lion mark.
The change in the classification
of the county will eventually
raise the salaries Of all the county
officers, but not during the in
cumbency of the present office
holders. It must be done by or
der of the Board Of County Com
missioners at their September
meeting just prior to the next
election.
The detailed figures of the as
sessment present some interest
ing facts. In spite of the rapid
farming development, which
shows up in the increase Of land
values principally, there are more
sheep in the county than last
year. However, they show a less
valuation, due to the fact that
State Assessors Association,
which fixes a uniform rate for
the entire state, cut the valuation
Of sheep this year fifty cents per
head.
A local woolgroWer remarked
yesterday that, If Schedule K
is tampered with, there will be
another big drop in sheep valua-
tions next year.
Another interesting fact is that
rar &c horses increased in number
by about 1000, while stock cattle
have only fallen off about 500.
City property valuations show an
increase Of about $500, 900.
Thoroughbred horses have in
creased in number from IL to
122, range horses from IL, ,679 to
IA, 434, work horses from 1880
to 1898, beef cattle decreased
from $50 to 648, 2-year-old cattle
increased from 2,0O1 to 2,074,
yearlings from 1856 to 2,f94,
stock cattle decreased from IT,
GAO to 1906, cows increased
from 1,745 to 2,l21, sheep in
creased from 337, 849 to 341, 513,
and hogs from 861 to l,614.

Dry Farm Talk.

Will these hills and plains OF Morrow
county produce good potatoes, cabbage
corn, melons, cucnmbers, tomatoes,
squashes and pumpkins? l think so il
we know how. There are two ways OF
raising potatoes, viz: plant as you plow,
OF plow and then plant. If the ground
has been we'll and deeply plowed in
previous years. you can raise immense
crops bv plowing them in.
For fourteen inch plow, plant every
third turrow, pillow shallow, plant one
piece of potato with one or two eyes,
three feet and half apart in furrow, be-
ing careful to place next to the side OF
the fHrrow, so the rows will be straight
Harrow down in good shape Immediate
ly. Harrow once or twice a week un-
til potatoes are from three to five inch
es high. Then take one section of
harrow. shorten teeth on each side SO
as not to spoil the young and tender
vines. Hitch on one horse and 90 thro'
between rows often, Gu iivating lighter
and lighter to the end Il the season,
barely brushing the su face at the last.
Keep the ground perfectly leve., and
don't allow the weeds to grow.
For late potatoes. don't plant too
early. Try planting from the last of
April to the last of May. Plant the best
of the best varieties. The Worlds
Fair" and "Carmon No. 81 are among
the best.
If you pillow before planning, pillow deep |
aud early. Harrow the ground once a
week at least til planting time. This
method will bear later planting.
Furrow out rows deeply with shovel
plow, instead OF turning plow. Then
drop potatoes three and ope-balt feet
apart, stepping on each piece go as to
press II down. Cover by narrowing
serOss the rows aud then proceed as
.beEe.
Heppner gazette. [volume] (Heppner, Morrow County, Or.) 1892-1912, 1911-03-02

For cabbage, tomatoes, corn, or any
kind OF vines, plow the ground early
and deep. Keep the ground we'll and
often cultivated, with an ordinary or
spring tooth harrow. Sow cabbage
seeds in b Dis not too thick about the
tenth OF May. Keep them well watered
or sprinkled SO as to have them ready
to transplant about the 10th or 18th OF
June. Furrow out rows deep, three and
one.half feet apart. Transplant in deep
burrows three and one-haf feet apart,
by placing roots down in moist dirt, and
packing soidly around.
| When set, commence to cultivate
around plant with rake filling dirt IN
furrow bv degrees. Cultivate between
rows with light cultivator or small har-
row very frequently. When through
cutivating the ground will be level, and
the roots will be deep in the ground.
This process keeps them green and fresh
through the hot summer months. For
late cabbage, plant only the Danish
badhead."
Ground should not be planted to
cabbage too often as it is hard on land.
For corn, tomatoes, or any kind OF
vines, prepare the ground the same as
for cabbage.
Don't furrow rows so deep for corn
but give good distance For vines, fur
row same as for cabbage.
Plant cucumbers, tomatoes, and mel
ons six feet spart each way. Squashss
and pumpkins. eight feet. Cultivate
the same as cabbage. In the late fall,
just before the hard freeze, take forked
stick and turn cabbage upside down. |
Then place them in rows across field,
two double, heads down. Plow two |
rounds with turning plow, throwing dirt
toward the cabbage. Then take shovel
and cover up heads two or three inches
deep. They will keep in this condition
til late in the spring, and can always be
taken out as you wish through the win
ter.
Farmers should raiae all their own
vegetables, and enough to supply the
home market, instead of having the
grocer ship in and sell to them AL
crops grown by this high state of culti-
vation process are the best on earth.
Try it and see.
