PROFIT IN ALFALFA Experiment Shows Value Flant for H03 Feed. of BOON TO STOCKGROWERS Oregon Agricultural College Demon strates Success "With Which Hogs Can Be Raised on This Kind of Pasture. CORVALLIS, Or, July 7. (Special.) A profit of $27.51 an acre for pasturage on alfalfa for three months has been proved to be a possibility by an experiment on the college farm. There will remain yet during the season three or four months more of pasturage on the same Alfalfa field, and Dr. Withycombe, who Is direct ing the experiment. Is confident that more than t50 an acre will be realized from pasturage of the field during the Bummer. The showing is considered to be of great value in that it is believed an almost equally favorable demonstra tion can be made on clover, rape or vetch. The results are of striking value in illustrating the possibilities of Western Oregon in the field, as the profit to be gained by the plan is more tier acre than lands on which it can be done sometimes ell for. In the experiment hogs were used. Thirty-two of the animals were put on a two-acre field of alfalfa April 1. All but five of the pigs were picked up in the open market, 'and were of ordinary grade as to breeding. Up to July 1 they had made a net gain of 1630 pounds. Be sides alfalfa, they had consumed during the three months' period 11,850 pounds of skim milk, and 1420 pounds of chopped wheat. For the skim milk, which was produced on the college farm, 25 cents per 100 pounds was allowed, aggregating $29.62. For the chopped wheat, also grown on the farm, 1 cents per pound was allowed, aggregating $21.30, making the total crfst of food, aside from alfalfa pasturage. $50.92. At cents live weight, the present market price of hogs, the value of the increase in weight Is $106.95, leaving a net balance for th alfalfa pas turage of $55.03, or $27.51 per acre. Meantime the large profit obtained from the alfalfa pasturage, together with that, yet to be realized during the next four months in which the pigs will re main on the field, is not the only profit in the demonstration. In addition, the Bklm milk produced on the farm went at 25 cents per 100 pounds, and did not have to be hauled off the premises. The wheat the pigs consumed brought 90 cents a bushel, Instead of the 50 cents that has been the market price until re cently. Above and beyond all, however, is the process of restoration of the land to its originality by the growing of leguminous crops and the presence of livestock on the field with its fertilizing influence. The alfalfa field used has never had a pound of commercial fertilizer on" It, is ordinary wheat ground on the upland, and has been subjected to no treat ment that is not easily possible on any Western Oregon farm. WHEAT HARVESTING BEGUN Southern Washington Crops Will Be Large This Year. KIOXA, Wash.. July 7. (Special.) The harvest is almost ready to begin in this section of Benton County. In the Iowa ettlement on Rattlesnake Mountain, about nine miles from Kiona, the grain is ripe and harvesting will begin Monday. In fact C. H. Corbitt, who has about 400 acres In wheat, has his header already at work. On the south side of the mountain the grain Is not quite so far advanced, but work will begin probably within a week. The yield, it is estimated,- will run from 15 to 25 bushels to the acre. In Horse Heaven harvesting will com mence about the 20th of July. Prospects there are good. I C. Rolph, who has been a Horse Heaven wheat grower for many years, says that it is difficult to estimate the average yield per acre, as there is a larsre acreage of volunteer wheat which will not yield heavily. The growers are counting on about 16 bushels an acre, but some fields will yield nearly twice that amount.- It is now believed SWIFT PACKrNG COMPANY DREDGE that even if hot winds come the wheat is too far along to be injured. The wheat farmers in this locality have been hiring help for several weeks whenever it of fered itself, and most of them now have full crews engaged for the harvest. Wages are gpod, running from $2 to $4 per day. Klona celebrated July Fourth, being the only town within a large radius to observe the day with a public celebra tion. A good programme was carried out. Judge B. S. Groscup, of Tacoma, who has large property interests near Klona, was orator of the day. About 50 people came down from Prosser and a large number from other towns and the Horse Heaven and Rattlesnake country. ' The Seattle Grain Company will put in a warehouse here at once, with U. S. Dickey as manager. This will be the third grain-buying firm to be represented in Klona, TITXD rP TO LAST TEAR Grain Crops In Columbia County About Ready to Harvest. DAYTON, Wash., July 7. (Special.) The prospects for fine crops in Co lumbia County are now looking much better than was expected on account of cold weather, and the yield wlll be about the same as preceding years. Fall sown wheat will yield from 80 to 40 bushels to the acre and will be ready for harvesting by the last of July. Spring wheat is very late ana at present It is hard to predict any thing about the crop. Harvesting will commence about the usual time, July 20. The Spring grain, which is nearly all barley, varies greatly, and is short and thin, but with exceedingly well filled beads. The yield will be "between 30 and 40 bushels to the acre, and on Summer fallowed ground it will yield between 50 and 60 bushels to the acre. With the straw so short harvesting will be made much cheaper and the grain will be easier to handle. Owing to the scarcity of labor a large number of- farmers have, this year, purchesed combined harvesers, with which five men can do the work that would by the other method take a force of 20. More horses, however, will have to be used. Wages this year will be about the came as last, when a raise was made, $2.50 to $5.00 per day. LUMBER TRADE WILL PICK UP Manager of Aberdeen Mill Believes Situation Will Improve. ABERDEEN, Wash., July 7. Special.) W. B. Mack, manager of the big Slade Mills, is more optimistic than most of the mlllmen as to the future of the lumber market. Although the Slade Mill is run ning about half a crew and other mills likewise, he says that he does not ex pect a general shutdown, and that an improvement in conditions within the next. 60 days will be noted. As to foreign trade, Mr. Mack eays he does not think it amounts to more than 6 per cent of the entire output on Gray's Harbor, and that the mlllmen are not looking to It for any prospective relief. Gray's Harbor has been a pretty big seller for some time and a falling off was to be expected, especially as the many new mills have added largely to the output. BUY DEPOSIT OF LIMESTONE Syndicate Will Develop Valuable Southern Oregon Property, ROSEBURG, Or., July 7. (Special.) About 80 acres of land lying eight miles south of Roseburg, known to contain a valuable, deposit of lime stone, was today sold to a syndicate composed of Mr. Riedel, of Portland; Mr. Moore, of Ogden, and C W. Nibley, of the Oregon Short Line. It is the announced intention of the company to develop the property, and to this end hundreds of laborers will be em ployed. The plans as laid o'ut include build ing a spur from Green's Station, five miles south of Roseburg, to the prop erty, and to enter upon the burnllig of lime ana the making of cement. This property was developed some years ago sufficiently to test its merits and its opening up at this time means much to this Immediate section. Manager Leaves South Bend.' SOUTH BEND. Wash., July 7.

' : 't.'::'W::': IX OPERATION ON SITE FOR GR EAT MAKE MERRY MUSIC MILLS OF LINN COUNTY TURN OUT MUCH LUMBER. All Sem Prosperous and Number of Plants Is Constantly on the Increase. " ALBANY, Or.. July 7. (Special.) There are now 31 sawmills in Linn County. One-third of them were established in the past year and at least one-half were placed in operation in the past two years. All are reported to be successful industries. Most of these plants are small and are operated principally tor local demand for lumber. But a great many of them, even those not located in towns, now manufacture for export, having in creased the size of the plants since their establishment. Practically all of the mills are located right in the timber, with plenty of ma terial available. This makes it neces sary to haul the finished product some distance to railroads. The newer plants are being located in the towns of the county, where transportation facilities are better and where arrangements can be made for floating In logs. Thirteen of the Linn County mills are along the South Santiam River and its tributaries, nine being In the country tributary to Lebanon, ne at Sweet Home, one at Foster, one at Cascadia and one between Foster and Cascadia. There are nine mil!" In the "forks of the Santlam," not including some of those which are more directly tributary to the South Santiam. These are tributary to Scio. Crabtree, Lacorab and Shelburn. Seven mills are in the country centering at Brownsville, three of them being near Crawfordsville and two near Holley. There Is one mill at Peoria. Though all of the mills of the county have their outlet through Albany, this city has no sawmill in operation. Work on Wie big Wheeler mill is progressing rapidly, how ever, and the plant will begin work next Fall. After being closed three weeks on ac count of lack of cars,- the Scroggins saw mill, at Lebanon, will resume operation Monday. A big float of logs, brought down the South Santiam to Cheadle Falls and thence to Lebanon by the Leb anon Canal, has been received at the Scroggins mill. CLUB FORMED AT LITTLE FALLS Business Men of Washington Town Work for Development. LITTLE FALLS, Wash., July 7. Spe cial.) To assist in the development of the resources of the city and community the Little Falls Commercial Club has been organised with the following officers: President, Mayor W. R. Dilley; vice pres ident. J. M. T. Williams; secretary-treasurer," C. H. Byerly. The club begins its existence under auspicious circumstances, with a large and enthusiastic! member ship, which assures substantial assistance in the upbuilding of this city. A special feature of the organization of the Commercial Club 'at a recent mass meeting was the presentation, by the Mayor, of a beautiful silver medal to D. P. Smith, a citizen of Little Falls. This medal, with certificate of award from the United States Volunteer Life Saving Corps of New York, was presented to Mr. Smith for the timely rescue from drowning of O. T. Cook, who was accidentally swept by high " water over a dam in Olequa creek, December 6, 1906, and badly in jured. Mr. Smith, at the risk of his own life, rescued Cook from drowning and the case came to the notice of the United States Volunteer Life Saving Corps, which recognized Mr. Smith's bravery. The medal is suitably engraved, and is highly appreciated by the recipient. Better Streets for South Bend. SOUTH BEND, Wash., July 7.

Five tons of Royal Ann cherries were grown this season on a two-acre orchard owned by Cyrus H. Walker, near this city. Walker has contracted to sell the entire crop at 5 cents per pound, realizing an income of $500 on the two acres. This is but one Instance of the remarkably large cherry yield in this vicinity and ' the exportation of cherries now In progress from Albany will mean quite an item financially for this city. In past years, the two acres of Royal Ann trees in the Walker orohard have yielded about two tons annually. This has made the trees very profitable, but a yield of five tons, with the present price, makes cherrygrowing a most no ticeable profit-yielding industry. A great many cherries are being shipped from Albany now. The Royal Ann variety are being sent to the can neries at Salem and Puyallup, Wash., while Royal Ann, Kentish and lng cherries are being sent direct to the Portland, Seattle and Astoria markets. A good many cherries are being shipped from this city to the various points along the Corvallls ' & Eastern Railroad. Black Republican cherries are Just now beginning to get ripe, and will soon be marketed with the other varieties. Royal Ann cherries are bringing 5 cents per pound everywhere, and the other varie ties 4 cents. All cherries yielded bountifully this year in this part of the state.. There are only five or six commercial cherry orchards In thlB vicinity, but every farm house has its orchard and almost every yard in Albany its Kentish or v Black Republican tree. The demand for cher ries has also been stronger this year than ever before and all cherries fit for marketing will be sold. The yield and demand this season have demonstrated the feasibility of the commercial grow ing of cherries in this vicinity and this year's experience will probably lead to greater things here in this Industry.
