CAMASPRAIRIE OFFERS
STOCK OPPORTUNITIES

The fact that there is q good nroat
to be made in stock raising and dairy
ing Is being more clearly demonstrated
each year. The man who has a good
GARY herd or who has a productive
area OF hay land stocked with-young
beef cattle is in a fair way TO make
money even during slow times. The
Camas Prairie section offers both op-
portunities; the completion of the
drainage system at an approximate
cost Of 100000 has made available
several thousand acres Of very produe-
tive open bottom land. This land has
been ready for the plow since last fall,
IN fact quite large area has already
been turned over by gang plows and
cropping has already started. This
country Is new in development and
there has been no initiation of values.
There is good opportunity this spring
to secure some exceptionally good
farms at attractive prices. Many of
the old timers have waited for years
for the drainage to be put into effect
and an advance of a few dollars per
acre looks very attractive to them.
There are others who have gone into
the section with the expectation of
quick returns, that is in the past three
or four years, and as the work of
drainage took longer than was antici-
pated they have realized no returns
and as result are behind on purchase
price mortgages and interest, so that
the man who is keen for investment or
who wants to go into the dairy or
stock business can find in this section
many opportunities for money making
that will interest him.
In addition to opening up the bottom
lands by drainage, about 10000 acres
of up land will soon be put under irri-
cation at an estimated cost to the
farmer of about Sc to 81 per acre; this
seems very cheap but the fact that
there is practically no rock work and
no fiuming would account for that low
figure. The country is gently sloping
with no gullies or canyons to cross
with the laterals and during the
greater part of the distance the main
canal will be carried in old creek beds.
The maintenance charge will be prac-
tically nothing, as the contour of the
COuukIy ls suCH tudl WdleT VIII lUllUW
plow furrow for miles through most
of the district.
The Camas valley has hardly been
heard of and that is largely the reason
why it offers more for the money you
would put into it than would most sec
tions in either Oregon or Washington.
Portland or Vancouver creameries pay
within one and one-half cent per pound
of city prices for your cream, and they
take il from your gate and return your
empty cans. There is an extensive out
range for stock and any cattle buyer
will tell you that no better beef is put
on the market than that which comes
off this range.
We are interested in this section and
have land for sale there, but there are
good opportunities for investment
which man can find for himself and it
will be our purpose to give all the gen.
eral as we'll as detailed information to
any one who desires to investigate. no
matter from whom they may secure
their land. B. E. Duncan 4 Co.

WEBER GRADER AP-
PEALS TO GROWERS

A large number of prominent valley
orchardists were present last Friday
afternoon at the apple house on the
Dethman ranch on the East Side, where
the improved grader and cleaner of the
Oregon Fruit Cleaner & Grader Co.was
exhibited. Representatives were pres
ent for the demonstration from all the
larger shipping concerns of the valley.
The grader will be in operation all of
this week at the ranch of r. H. Weber,
who is president of the company. 1t is
the invention of o. K. Porter, Of The
Dalles. Max Vogt, cashier of the First
National Bank and treasurer of the
manufacturing company, as here Fri
day to witness the demonstration. Mr..
Vogt is brother of Joe G. Vogt of
this city. The machine greatly reduces
the cost of apple sorting by hand.
The machine works to perfection.
Unlike other graders on the market,
this one has a cleaning machine as
we'll. The fruit passes along a carrier
belt, and is thoroughly cleaned by
three brushes, made of hog bristles.
The hog bristles are used in preference
to any other, to overcome the accumu-
lation of dirt on the end of each bristle
which is inevitable when any other
brist'e is used. This bristle seems to
hold its natural soil, and makes it i'm
possible tor the dirt to stick to it.
From the cleaner. the fruit is drop
ped, by an ingenious device, one apple
at time, into a cup. we'll padded with
felt to avoid bruising. In fact, there
is no possible chance for the fruit to
be injured. This cup travels in circle
and as the spring at the bottom en-
larges, the apple is dropped into the
proper bin, and rolls right to the pack
er's hand. There is room around the
packing table for ten packers to work
conveniently.
