Receipts for the last week at
the Portland Stock Yards have
been, Cattle 1904; Calves 1873;
Hogs 1856; Sheep 6372;
Cattle market last week steady
to strong. Improved beef out
let had bullish effect on prices.
Prime steer top $500 to 1926
with bulk Of steer sales at 7.75
and $40. Eastern Oregon steers
at $50 and cows 7.75 featured.
There has been a keen demand
for choice butcher cattle especial
ly cows and heifers. Sales were
made in small quantities as the
supply was comparatively short.
Best cows 7.75 to 8.25, heifers
7.25 to 7.50. choice bulls $50 TO
600 and choice light calves at
900,
The hog market was steady to
higher. One load Of extra fine
hogs sold at 8. 40 Friday morning,
bulk Of light swine sales 9.15 to
$50. Sound packers have been
liberal buyers on the market and
the light run was quickly absorb
ed. Swine prices are apparently
on a heavy basis at least for the
present.
Sheep house business has been
slow all week. Demand for both
mutton and lambs has been light
and the trade has shown no sigh
of improvement whatever over
previous weeks market. A
liberal top is &c as some very
good stock sold at that price.
Prime killing ewes at 400, weth-
ers at 4.25 and yearlings at 4.50
are extreme quotations in the
mutton division.

is not much to he thinned, the
hoe is good. Where the patch is
large, the drag harrow can be
used or later, the disc harrow.
1t would be well for those trying
out this crop to vary the thick

themselves the proper thickness
The field peas seem especially
promising as quick and sure
crop. From the way pods are
forming on all samples noticed,
it seems certain that greater
yields can be expected from this
crop on most of the dry lands
than of any other annual. Esti-
mated yields run from fifteen to
thirty bushels Of the ripened peas
per acre. Hogged off. this
should mean about one dollar per
bushel where the hogs are pro-
perly handled. More crops of
peas can be grown than is DOS
sible to grow grain. The value
per acre per crop is as high and
the peas are soil builders. No
man farming the dry lands can
afford not to get a start of this
crop and learn the methods of
it and disposing of it at
the greatest profit.
That flax for seed production
can be grown successfully is just
about proven by the success that
las been had on every hand.

How to Make a
Camp Fireicss Cooker

What camper has not wished
upon leaving camp for the day
with the meat. beans, and othei
slow-cooking camp foods just
coming to a boil, that he might
return and find them done, and
tender and hot, exactly right to
be served? That very thing may
be provided for by following this
simple direction taken from
Camp Cookery" just off the
press of the Extension division
of the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege: Use a box similar to one
holding two five-gallon cans of
oil, made stout with extra nails
and as nearly air tight as pos
sible with strips, and nail a strip
! inch thick and 3 inches wide
around the inside even with the
top. Line the bottom and sides
with paste board, such as from a
cracker box, and pack the bottom
tight with excelsior. Place the
vessel to be used in the center of
the box and pack the excelsior as
tight as possible around 1t, re-
move the vessel and line the OPEN
ing with paste board, cutting q
hole in the top strip to fit the
vessel. Take strong board for
the lid and line it with packed
excelsior covered with cloth. Or
a pillow or cushion may be used
under the lid. which is made as
nearly air tight as possible. The
top padding should be thick
enought to make it difficult to
close the lid. which is held down
oy hasp and hinges, or leather
hinges with a boulder on top to
weight it down." This little

Evolution of Advertising

Business methods are con-
tinually changing. Within the
memory of many of the active
business men of today a real
eyolution has taken place: A
few years ago there was ;
ready market for manufacture
led products. This was because
our population was not so large
Hand the demand easily exhaust.
lied the supply. But increasing
factories, and greater compe-
tition have changed the situa-
ton. Today the manufacturer
is endeavoring through adver-
tising to create q demand for
his goods. as he finds local
dealers are anxious to carry in
stock goods of recognized quail
I|ity, for which there is a de-
mand.
II Although the manufacturer
has been creating a demand
for his product through a big
advertising campaign it is up
to the local merchant to carry
on the advertising campaign
in his community, and not only
handle goods of quality but to
be strong in telling of its
merits.
While business has been de-
veloping, advertising, as a part
of business, has undergone
great changes. About fifty
years ago it was considered |
contrary to business ethics to |
solicit away from a competitor. |
From then to now is only |
short span of years, and yet
today about 81. 900, 600, 900 is
spent annually in advertising, /
Competition has become very /
sharp in the advertising field Il
and to be a successful adver-
tiser requires skill. The spas
modic, wasteful advertising of
yesterday is giving way to the
persistent and systematic ad-
of today.
The time is fast approaching
when the persistent and sys-
tematic advertiser is going to
get the business. 1t may not
come today or tomorrow but it |
8 justas certain to come as
leath itself. Every merchant
who desires to keep abreast of

natures very quickly, 1t being
possible to plant later than any
OF the grains and yet harvest
before the grain. Twelve varie-
ties Of this crop are now on trial
at the Experiment Station and
are pronounced by all familiar
with fax as a crop as a decided
success in every way, particul-
arily as to the yield that is
promised. Flax seed, at present
prices and railroad transporta-
ton, will net the grower here
about $1.08 per bushel. An
average yeild is from 10 to 20
bushels per acre.
SOME QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Do you recommend planting
land that is cleared and plowed
this fall to crop next spring?
Ans. ltdepends upon the land.
The most important thing for you
to determine in answering this
question for yourself is-how
deep down is the soil moist. 1t
does not matter how much rain
you have so much as how deep it
wet the soil. If you have sub
irrigated land you will find that
the land is wet all the way down
and you can safely plant. But,
il you are on the dry lands. you
will find that the soil is wet only
to depth Of from one to two
feet as u rule on land handled as
you propose. This is not enough
moisture to insure q crop. In
fact it would be a coincidence
were a crop to develop under
those conditions. 1t would be
better to maintain a summer fal-
low mulch on this land and not
plant until the following year.
BY this time you will have stored
up two years moisture and the
soil will be wet down about three
feet. This will give you a fair
yeild providing you use good
methods other wise. For those
who must plant on one years
moisture. it is much better to
plant a crop that can be cult
waited such as field peas, potatoes
etc. Even to plant grain in
double rows and cultivate it
would be far better than to throw
away seed and crop by planting
Il in the ordinary way.
What do you think about plant
ing winter wheat in the spring?
Ans. Winter wheat planted
very early. February or March,
will usually do well. II should
never be planted as late as the |
spring wheats. When planted
ate it will not make u crop but
out in the summer stooling out.
Do you recommend packing
he soil with a Campbell sub
urface packer?
Ans. Not on fall plowed land.
Where spring plowing is done
he packer is often Of advantage
n closing up the spaces between
he furrow slices thus putting
he soil in better condition for
he crops. Fall plowed land be-
ONES naturally packed during
he winter thus making il necess-
ry to use any artificial methods
T bringing about this condition. !

Condor. The original plan had
been to spend about three days
in this Valley but in some way
this was changed and the stay
very short. No doubt on his
next visit Mr., Farrell will see
more of this immediate section
and meet a greater number OF
people. At least he should do so
for the benefit of all interested.

Mr., 0'Farrell. the newspaper
writer of New York, was here
for the purpose of securing data
for descriptive articles Of the
country. Mr.. 0'Farrell is q very
observant man and his articles
will be of vast benefit to this sec
ton in the way of exploiting its
resources and possibilities. The
gentleman said most emphatically
that this portion Of the north
west had not received its just
dues in respect to advertising.
In fact the entire west was not

tematic method of placing it be-

an advanced figure, making an
enormous profit, is not securing
the right material with which to

instances he is selling to another
speculator who is going to add
more to the price of the land.
While no definite statement of
the extension of the line west
from Vale was made by the rail-
road men while here. nor any
asked. it is generally
believed the work will progress
with reasonable rapidity and the
road pushed into the Valley with
the least possible delay. The

My Kingdom for an Auto

No visitor tn the shows of this year
can help being impressed by a humble
of facts. The business of making tn.
automobile noiselcss. vibrationless anI
odorless has proceeded so far that i,
would seem Unnecessary TO go further
i'm these directions. The starting de-
vices have been perfected. by pressing
a button electricity 'cranks up" the
machine. The first cars had to be-
pushed up hill; man literally put his
shoulder To the wheel. Now the en-
glnes are powerful enough to carry al
most any vehicle with almost any bur
den over the steepest grades. The Wis
itor to the Grand Central palace last
week was reminded by the scene paint
ing upon the. walls of what the auto
mobile can do i'm fording streams, cross
ing morass and plain. and ascending
into" the high places of the Rocky
mountains.
The cars of today have been given
an attractive appearance. An inspec>
tion of them when they are brought to,
gether reveals many pleasing forms.
AT first the automobile was a carriage
without horses; now it has its own
architect. Certain manufacturers, il
is said. mode their cars by sculptors
IN clay before building them. The
I'm the exhibitions win amaxe the casual
~beholdcr. The graceful lines. the
bright paint. the fine upholstery and
appointments which liken them to
modern Pullman cars on our railroads
appeal to the eye and stir the imagina-
ton. I'm some there are flower vases of
cut glass. gold plated clocks, toilet
sets. spaces for bottles and glasses and
for magazines. and tables which may
be swung into place for the serving OF
refreshments or for reading.
The sales price, too, is being mate
RALLY educed. While high prices arc
set upon the show cars there are auto
mobiles for $1,000 which have the APP
pearance of those costing perhaps 34,-
600 and $4,000 each. h weightiest
problem concerns the tire of rubber
iilled with air. II protects the car and
the passenger perfectly. but it's liability
to destruction and it's expensive char
acteI' argue against it's continued use.
The search for a satisfactory substi-
tute goes OH like the old search for f.
Dorado. The new tire when 1t is
found should prove as golden for its
discoverer as we rave pictured the
mythical rich land.
