A movement that may well be
followed with profit in this state has
just been started in the tier of coun-
ties south of the Columbia River
where wheat growing has been fol
lowed to the exclusion of other crops.
The railroads, business interests of
Portland and the Oregon Agricul-
tural College have united to diversi-
fly farm production and guard
against improverishment Of the soil
through continued wheat cropping.
A dem onstration train will be oper-
ated through Morrow. Sherman and
Gillian Counties next fall and field
peas, alfalfa and corn will be dis
tributed to farmers for seed.
Prizes will be offered for the best
crops grown under dry farming
conditions and for pea-fattened hogs.
Directions for growing these crops
will be given by agricultural college
experts and the competition will be
carried on under their direction
By the introduction of these crops
it is believed the fertility of the soil
will be restored, moisture conserved
and at least two crops in three years
as under the present summer fallow-
ing system. 1t is not expected to
supersede wheat as the chief crop
but to supplement it'with other pro-
ducts and stimulate livestock pro-
duction, bringing greater profits to
the farmer.

You can't hold back the develop
ment of the state of Washington.
Experts who are looking through
the west with the idea of striking
ideal dairy spots are of the opinion
that Washington cannot be excelled
any place in the world. The result
will be that within the next few
years hundreds of thousands of
dollars will be spent in further de-
veloping the dairy interests of the
Northwest. Eastern, as we'll as
Western Washington, is in it's in
fancy so far as this great industry
is concerned and that fact will be
realized when the expert dairymen
OF the world come to understand
the wonderful possibilities of the
Northwest, from the standpoint of
this one industry.

The editor of the Trade Register
thinks the average tax payer of
the state does not grasp the meaning
OF the good roads fight in this state.
All he knows is that an immense
amount of taxes are being paid from
which he can see but little benefit,
Tax payers realize. however, that
vast sums of money have been paid
into this fund for roads, good and
bad. mostly bad. Figures recently
compl ed by the state show that
from 1907 to 1910 the several coun.
ties OF the state paid in to the state
treasurer, the immense sum of ST.
7,O19 for state roads and state
aid roads only. The average citizen
wonders in amazement as he looks
at the average road where this vas,
sum OF money has gone'.

The reciprocity situation in the
Senate, exclaimed President Taft
at recent dinner in New York. lis
one that can be described as calling
for the bill, the whole bill and
nothing but the bill" For this rea-
son the gentlemen present, who be-
longed to the Cotton Seed Crushers'
Association, were asked to urge the
Southern Senators to consider the
Farmers Free List upon its own
wholly apart from the merits
of Canadian reciprocity, and not to
burden the agreement with an ir-
relevant tariff measure which would
probably insure its defeat. If the
bill passes the Senate, declared the
President few days before at
Chicago. it will be due to the force
of public sentiment. And if any
thing could rouse public sentiment
to the point where the Senate would
not dare to disregard it, it would
be these two speeches of the Presi-
dents. The press, indeed, are for
the most part heartily in favor Of
the agreement, a fact made more
evident by the Chicago Iribune's
poll of editors in % Western States
finding them nearly 8 to / for
reciprocity. President Taft is con-
graduated upon the statesmanlike
quality of his lucid exposition of
the advantages to be derived from
freer trade with our Northern
neighbor.

is the most inviting, if not the only

COLONEL tom At issue
ON Big CROP PROMISE
No Bumper Crop This Summer
He Declares

Col. Tom Hudson, farmer to the
manor born, as we'll as state COM
missioner of agriculture and prospec-
tive governor, sees no visions of a
monster cotton crop this season, just
because of the fact that conditions
are favorable now and the crop grow
ing off nicely.
Col Hudson is not pessimist, but
he plays the soft pedal wehn it comes
TO booming a crop four months before
maturity.
Concerning recent crop publications,
Col, Hudson says:
Il believe those reports are incor-
rect. l have travelled around over
the state rather extensively, and have
noticed nothing which would seem 70
indicate bumper crop. There is very
little increased acreage, and the land
under cultivation shows about the
same as in any average year"
Col. Hudson will be in Americas to-
day and will take a look at conditions
on his pretty farms here.
