GRANGE BILLS PRO-

Editor Hood River Glacier-In the
Oregon Daily Journal of the goth inst
they print an interview with Senate,
Nd. A. Miller, of Linn county, whereby
ne says: Il ain particularly opposed
TO the Orange county bonding act. II
provides that general road meeting
shall flx upon the roads to be improved

Improvement will begin and end.

would ever agree on such subjects. but

county, people would say, there is a

lar roads to be built according to the
requirement of the road meeting and
that in my mind would make the
grange measure entirely imperative. !"

just thlnk seriously of what he said.
You Will never get people to vote
road bonds so long as those bonds
specify particular roads to be built.
etc. " ''
Let me quote from private letter
received from Judge Colvige, of Med
ford, Ore, few months ago. Here
is what he said. 1--WE have been through
road campaigns in this county, where
the people discussed the matter of the
BOND issue for many long weeks and
we found that no bond issue will ever
carry in any county in this state unless
the order of the county court calling
the election states where the roads are
to be built. You could not bond Jack
son county for 500, 600 nor any other
amount unless the order calling the
election located the roads to be con-
structed. do not think any people
Will ever vote bond iss withou

being assured of the location OF the
roads before they vote the money!"
Now, Mr.. reader and voter, | have
quoted from two different people Of
different ideas. Barring who express
ed either opinion, which sounds more
reasonable and appears more favorable
to you? The Grange roads bills, No.
ga and 326. make it compulsory upon
the county courts to name in their call
Tor an election, the beginning and end
ing OF each road to be improved and
the people, through their regularly
elected delegates to the county road
meetings, select tine roads which the
county courts describe in their call for
an election.
Mr.. Voter, if there ever was prin-
ciple honorable. just and worthy of
your support it is the one objected to
by Mr.. Miller. He claims to be a be-
never IN placing all legislation as near
the people as possible and here he is
opposing a measure that is purely
peoples rule. If, as he says, the
county road meeting in Linn county
would vote to build road from Albany
to Lebanon the rest of the county
would say, "A niger in the wood
pile. Do syou think such would or
could be done, unless a majority of the
people through their elected delegates
deslred.it. While do not believe that
Linn county citizens would do such
thlng without including many other
roads throughout the county, yet | can
easily understand how their county
court might do such thing and the
people might holler, "Nigger in the
wood pile" Mr.. Voter, this whole
night is open. The princiI lie is, "Shall
the people of the road politicians select
the roads to be improved" Read the
grange road bills No. 324 and No. 1926
and see how we select the roads and
protect the expenditure Of the peoples
money. Yours sincerely,
A. |. Mason.

RARE VIEW FROM
FIR TOPS SUMMIT

Not many people have ever climbed
to the summit Of Fir Top mountain,
which is the most prominent Of the
points in the range forming the east
ern rim of Hood River valley, says az
Oregonian correspondent. From the
East Side road Fir Top presents the
outlines of a perfect pyramid, but as
one rides,through the pass leading c
The Dalles, at its northern base, II Is
found to be the western point OF q
range that has its beginning IN the
Hills Of Mosier.
Recently a party of people who bad
many times passed its frowning lace
on the Hood River side made the climb
and came back enthusiastic about the
trip. This party climbed the range at
a point two miles 10 the south OF the
beak, and walked north along a path
that has the appearance Of being well
travelled, but it.is fOur-footed travellers
that have made it and not the feet oi
humans. The ridge along this range
of hills is a level plateau extending
eastward from three-quarters to mile
and half wide before It drops into
MOsler valley.
Like many other mountains, the point
that seems to be the top from the sur
rounding country, is not the highest by
any means. The real tip of Fir Top IS
half a mile from the group Of frs that
grace the point seen from the ranches
below, and instead of'being wooded, as
one might expect, it is rock and Gov
cred with small brush. On the sum
nit someone the early part Of this
year erected cache Of stone, placed a
pole in the.center. and inside a cigar
box. In the cigar box was found a
register-containing.a about % names, to
which the party added their own. Evil

spellbinder and gave vent to no high
flown oratory. However, he did make
plain statement of facts in an interest
ing way and presented the Wilson side
of the argument of the present day po-
litical campaign convincingly. The
audience evinced its interest more than
once by rounds of applause.
In beginning his speech Mr.. Miller
stated that he had made a visit to the
valley many years ago, when resident
of The Dalles. The community at that
time, he said, was absolutely undevel-
oped. "You people here are to be con-
graduated, . he said, 'for the won
derful progress you have made"

AGRICULTURAL
IMPLEM ENTS IN
SOUTH AMERICA,

American manufacturers will well
come the request from a South Ameri-
can republic for lists and prices Of ag-
ricultural machinery. Argentina is
one of the greatest present and pros
pective agricultural domains of the
world, extending across more than
1000 miles of latitude and being near
ly one-third as big as the continental
United States.
The department of agriculture in
Washington has received information
Of the establishment Of a division call
ed the laboratory of agricultural
mechanics and graphic works in con-
nection with the department of agri-
culture Of Argentina, to study the
mechanics of utensils, motors, imple-
ments, and installations relating to
to prepare graphic representations
for the Information of farmers. The
director of the division has asked that
the manufacturers Of the United States
be informed Of the new Office and asks
that they send to him detailed cata-
logues with prices of agricultural ma
chinery, motors, pumps. turbines, etc,
and, if possible, report to him all data
referring to new constructions and in
ventions. In exchange, the director
viii gladly give all the information
possible regarding agricultural imple-
ments in use in Argentina
Correspondence should be addressed

America.
When the vast areas sure to be oc-
cupied during the century are consid-
cred, the American manufacturer will
not doubt the desirability at this time
of securing entrance or enlargement
for the product of American ideas.
It is of interest in this connection
as showing the enterprise of our South
American neighbors, to note that the
city Of Buenos Aires is digging a
thirty-foot channel to its docks in the
effort to compete with Montevideo

Prof. H. L. Bolley. Some of the results
which we have obtained in our studies
are very interesting II ] believe when
fully understood will have a marke

FARMERS and experimenters have al
ways understood that wet, soft grain
is not as desirable for e for sowing
purposes as similar grain which has
been harvested dry and hard. 1t Is a
known fact that grain which Is allow

time never does yield as well as hard
grain even though the first sprouting or
termination of the softened grain does
not seem to be materially affected.
"Our seed and laboratory studies nave
given some new light on the suoJect.
These are some of h facts:
Il. IF a field of wheat OF the same
quality is harvested in different ways
so that one portion Is com

grain is found to be moro or less
bleached or blistered, musty or mouldy
