Agricultural Column
BY G NJ GUMBERT

Last week DR.. Frazer fulfilled an
old promise and took ME out to his
farm. When YOU have read this ar
ticle ! believe You will agree with
me that the doctor is also a farmer.
DR.. Frazer owns 270 acres of land
which he bought in seperate tracts
but has now converted into one farm.
He has enough bottom land for corn
and pastures his rolling land to great
advantage. DR.. Frazer was prob
ably the first farmer in the county
to use lime on his land. lie still
uses lime for the big clover crops
that he cuts are revelation. Some
of this land was badly run down but
after using lime to grow clover and
then feeding the clover and return
ing the manure he has doubled his
production. Doctor says that he has
lust begun and know that he has
made n good start. His stock includes
forty two head of cattle. splendid
registered Hereford bull, one register
ed Ranboulet ram. six ewes and six
leen registered big boned spotted Po-
land China hogs. Among this mum
Der is a registered boar, one year
old that is a splendid an individual
as | have ever seen and | have seen
some good ones! This boar if fat
would weigh six hundred pounds. He
has splendid back broad, long and
with not too much arch. He shows
plenty of scale and stands well up
of the ground on strong posterns.
Give Doctor a little more time and
he will build on this foundation. |

Alfalfa could be- made to grow
proftably on nearly every Critten-
den farm. do not believe every
farm should have large acreage but
| do believe most farms should have
from one to three acres. There is
nothing mysterious about the needs
# alfalfa but its requirements
should be known and met else fail
ure is sure to result.
What alfalfa wants: Seed free
weeds, well drained soil, sweet soil,
well prepared seed bed ground free
from weeds, incubation no pastur-
ing. Supply these needs and 1t Is
as sure as any crop. What alfalfa
does: Leads in yield per acre, leads
in feeding value, leads as a drought
.esister. leads as soil enricher,
leads as a ration balancer, furnishes
.heapest source Of protein, takes free
nitrogen from the air, reduces grain
bills. increases farm values, doubles
prohts. An acre of alfalfa will yield
three times as much hay as an acre
of red top and the hay will be again
as rich in protein. The protein and
mineral contents of alfalfa is very
important for glowing animals.

fore me with his gander and his calf

HOME SERVICE CAMPAIGN
OF SALVATION ARMY

The Salvation Army, which won
such warm place in our hearts by
its splendid war work, has launched
throughout Washington and Idaho
its 1920 Home Service Program
which includes the extension of its
service to every village and hamlet.
Having begun its work in the
slums of the large cities, the organi-
cation now plans to branch out and
extend its helping hand to the small
town and isolated community.
In doing so the Army hopes to
reach the source of many of the dis
quoting streams that flow continu-
ously towards the large cities. Thu.
by curbing the stream before it grows
into a torrent, the new program aims
at prevention rather than cure.
In every county in Washington and
Idaho advisory boards composed of
the most representative citizens IN
their respective communities are be-
ing organized to cooperate with the
Salvation Army in systematically re-
lieving distress and endeavoring by
study and application to reduce the
causes that are so productive of So
cial disorders in the cities.
In this work the Salvation Army
aims not to duplicate the activities Of
any other social or religious agency
Its purpose is the fullest utilization
OF the vast machinery FOR social

Among the departments and agen

young women's boarding homes

From Over the State

Harvest in in full swing through
out the Inland Empire. In Klickitat
county warehouses have been averag-
ing 1000 bushels daily since the last
week in July. Conditions are favor
able for harvesting and the labor sit

as yet. Commenting on the crop out
look, F. S. Roberts, manager North
ern Grain and Warehouse company
of Spokane, says: "There will be
more wheat in the four states Of
Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Mon
tana this year than there was last,
according to reports coming to us. In
the Palouse country the crop is pref
ty good. 1t is fine in the Walla Wal
la and Pendleton districts and some
of the yields around Washtucna are
reported as high as 40 bushels to the
acre. In the Moher and Davenport
sections it may go as strong as last
year. It will be of better grade this
year, too, than it was last year. 1t is
running So and 81 pounds to the
bushel. Spring wheat around Ritz
vile is running from 10 to 20 BUSH
els to the acre, which is good for that
district. Montana will have a great
crop. 1t is estimated at 10000, 900
bushels, compared with 100000
last year"

New York, Oct. 1S.--There were
seventy mine murders in New York city
during the first nine months of 1920
which stand on the police and district
attorneys records as unsolved. The
circumstances surrounding most Of them
are enveloped in mystery ,and the per-
petrators probably never will pay the
penalty for their crimes. The police
succeeded in ascertaining the identity Of
the murderers in few instances. but
the evidence obtained by the detectives
proved 80 filmy that the prisoners were
either turned out in the lower courts or
the grand jury before which It was
presented failed to find an indictment.
Philadelphia, like New York, is in the
grip of a crime wave. Between January
/ and the last day Of September there
we're eighty murders in the Pennsylvania
city, Eve Of which remain unsolved. st.
Louis, In the same period, had twenty
four murders. only six Of which remain
unsolved. There were twelve homicides
| in Cincinnati in the nine months, all
but two Of which have been cleared up
by the police.
