Raising Dwarf Pears.

Mr.. Southwick has set out quite a
few Dwarf Pear trees and expects to
find them a very profitable feature,
basing his expectations on the expe-
rience of his grandfather in New York
state.
eff have succeeded in my under
takings," said Mr.. Southwick, not long
ago, cit is due to personal push and
industry. Knowledge of how and
when to act is as necessary for the
farmer as it is for the general of an
army or the captain of ship. There
is an old saying that eternal Vigi-
lance is the price of success, and it
applies even more to the practice OF
agriculture than to some other lines.
81 produce the goods, and / pro-
duce good gonuS, and, therefore, al
ways have a market for my produce.
There is a first-rate market FOR any
first-class produce, If one but knows
where to find 1T.
81 am working now for the fun OF
doing things, not because l actually
need to work, for I don't. But love
to work with the soil and to see grow
ing things and be with them"
Mr.. Southwick is doing on his ranch
what any man of equal brains and
energy can do on land of the same
character. He is one of many men
who are meeting with success in farm
ing in the Bitter Root. The man who
is not finding success in that line in
the valley should find out where he is
erring, for it is his fault and not the
fault OF the valley.

The Potato Crop.

Besides the crops mentioned above
are potatoes, which are staple crop,
to be grown year after year, every
year about the same area. Potatoes
are not to be grown for speculation,
but where raised every year they will
net a handsome profit on the aver
age.
Tomatoes are another source Of in
come at Mulberry Hill, beginning to
ripen about the middle of August and
finding ready sale. Mr.. Southwick
ripens them in cataframes, under
glass, in the fall, and the sales con-
tinue up into November.
The strawberries, in Mr.. Southwick's
opinion, is the king of fruits, so far as
net profit per acre is concerned. The
best-paying bush fruit is the red rasp-
berry, and currants are nearly equal
to Strawberries in profit, considering
the amount of labor expended on the
two crops.
