kennebeC Journal Ads
Give Practical Helps

S advertising took on this char
~ acter, andwas more and more
aimed to interest and inform,
it gained readers. House wives
learned that through reading the
advertisements of the stores they
could really learn things about COM
modities and their prices, without
spending needless hours of "shop-
ping" Thus the circle of people in
t1uenced by advertisements expand
ed with consistent and solid results.
All life and living tends more and
more to organization, to system, to
efficiency of method. Buying for the
home, almost the last of the great
businesses of the world to come un-
der the sway Of business methods"
at last felt the impulse toward eff
cheney. The housewife learned that
she, too, was Gin business" and that
she owed it to herself and to those for
whom she acted as buyer to see to it
that her task was performed with eff
ficiency and economy and wise judg-
ment. Thus the circle of people in
fiuenced by advertising widened and
expended in greater degree.
And the expansion of the circle
goes on. If merchant holds the at
tention and interest of the people in
this city who read and are Influenced
in their buying by the ADVERTISE
ments he need not worry about other
people or 9th er problems.

From the address of President Wilson
to Congress. April 2, 1917:
I'VE should keep constantly in mind
the wisdom of interfering as little as
possible. in our own preparation and in
the equipment of our own military
forces, with the duty-for it will be
very practical duty-of supplying the
nations already at war with Germany
with the materials which they can OBJ
tain only from us or by our assistance
They are in the field and we should
help them in every way to be effective
there"

ted states and oregon cooperative
food preparedness campaign. When
the emergency call came the nucleus
of effective organization already ex-
listed In the county agricultural agent
policy and the club work of the boys
and girls as conducted by the Exten-
sion Service of the Agricultural Col
iege. Fifteen counties were main
tanning county agents, and the coun-
ty-agent plan has been extended as
districts until almost the entire State
is Included. This county is men,
ber of the Hood River, Sherman, Nor
row and Gillian group, with head
quarters at The Dalles.
The leader of this group is J. W.
Brewer, secretary of The Dalles
chamber of commerce, former secre-
tary of the Oregon development
League, and at one time a farmer of
Umatilla county. He is in close
touch with agricultural and market
conditions in the district and knows
the production capacity of the farms
within its boundaries. 1t is expected
that this territory will produce big
share of the two great staples OF
wheat and wool, as well as various
other products.
All of these counties, together with
| the other district and county-agent
counties, are now integral parts oi
the statewide, nation wide organiza
| ton to increase the food supply re-
| quisite to successful campaign by
the navy and army. Food, and still
| more food, is the plea of President
| Wilson, transmitted to the people o1
Oregon through Secretary Houston
President Kerr and Director Hetzel
This mighty mobilization for supreme
effort is the answer that Oregon
makes, with its magnificent resour
ces and intrepid spirit.

ly by the Government, the State Col

CORN AND BEANS
FOR SUMMERFALLOW

o. C., Corvallis, Ore, May o.
3There, are from 200 to 800 thousand
acres of summer fallow in Eastern
Oregon which should produce some
kind of cultivated crops this year and
since it is too late to plant field peas,
the most suitable crops left are beans,
corn and the small grains in the cul-
uvated rows. Corn is particularly
recommended inasmuch as it will
save the feeding of grain to livestock.
Prof. Hyslop, Farm Crops author
ity at o. A.C., asserts that at an alti-
tude of $500 feet, and where there is
reasonably good rainfall, beans may
be successfully produced on summer
fallow that has been plowed early.
Beans may be seeded with a grain
drill in rows to feet apart, and
from to 6 or inches apart in the
rows. Early maturing bush varieties
are desirable. Lady Washingtons,
Mexican Tree beans. and Red Mexi-
cans are all very successful. 10 to is
pounds Of seed per acre is suficient
| and a yield Of not less than 400 to
800 pounds per acre may be expected.
and indications are that prices for
beans will be good next fall. This
small amount. II given good cultiva-
ton, will leave the summer fallow in
practically as good condition for the
succeeding wheat crop as If it had
been cultivated clean all summer, and
J most Of the work will be done before
the harvest season.
Bean handling and harvesting
equipment is not expensive. The
summer fallow lands of Oregon
should raise a million bushels of
beans this year and we will need all
of them this fall. Plant as soon as
possible after danger of frost is over.
Early corn planted in wide rows
Is a good crop for hog, cattle, horse
or sheep feed. Eastern Oregon can
put enough dry shelled corn on the
market to ship in carload lots. Wheat
or barley may be planted in rows 4 to
is feet apart on summer follow and,
with slight cultivation to keep the
weeds down, will produce good crops.
Row crops should be planted so the
rows run across the direction of the
prevailing winds. Utilize all the
summer fallow in beans, corn, root
crops or the small grains in rows.
