ing of the Royal Neighbors Wednes-

there was an exceptionally large at
tendance present and splendid time
enjoyed. The Burlington lodge has
placed an order for 5000 worth of suits
and regalia and are planning an active
campaign for new members this year.
At the meeting Tuesday evening there
were seven applications for member
ship, an indication that the members
are taking an active interest in build
ing up the local camp. It is the pur-
pose of the members to hold meetings
regularly each Tuesday evening until
the degree team becomes perfect in
the work. A special effort will be made
to promote sociability and frequent
banquets will be given with this end
in view. Burlington has already be-
come famous as having the largest
number of Elks in proportion to the
population of the town of any city in
the United States and we trust that
they will be able to achieve the same
honor in respect to membership in the
M. w. A. also.

DRY HARD LAND MAY
Be PLOMED BY DISK

Hard, dry stubble land may be sue
cessfully plowed by means of disk
plow before the fall rains set in, and
made to grow crops as large and prof
fitable as those grown from lands
plowed by mold board plows after the
rain.
This is the conclusion reached by
Professor H. d. Scudder, agronomist
at 0. A. c.. after extended investi-
cations carried over period of eight
years. without possibility of ques-
tion," says Professor Scudder, "by
using the proper kind of a disk plow
and using that disk plow properly,
fall plowing may be begun much
earlier in the season. We have PROV
ed this not only on our own farms in
different parts of the state, but have
had others farmers try it out on an
extensive scale with excellent re-
suits"
Attention is called to the fact that
this possible use of the disk plow is
contrary to the views held by most
Willamette Valley farmers; that is,
that the use of the disk plow on hard
dry ground is a good proposition 1t
is said to be not only good propo-
sition but one of the most important
propositions any farmer of Western
Oregon can consider and put into
practical operation with profitable re-
suits.
