Oregon Agricultural Hxperts Discard
AcaUeiuic Talks and Tell Men of
the Soil How to Make Hogs
and Cows Pay Well.
CANBV. Or., Feb. 4. (Special.) If
tiothing else shall be accomplished by
the 12-day trip of the Southern Pacific.
Oregon -Agricultural College-Portland,
Eugene & Eastern demonstration train
through Western Oregon. It is assured
that tae area of corn growing acreages
of the future will be enlarged and the
Industry stimulated. The combination
ts bogs, cows, corn, clover or alfalfa
auad the use of silos.
Five hundred farmers of that region
re already growing corn under direc
tion of the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege and from seed furnished by that
Institution, and since the beginning
of the present demonstration train
itinerary, there has been a constant
nd Insistent demand for practical in
atructlon on the construction of silos.
At Newberg, Sherwood, Molalla and
Canby today 3500 people visited the
demonstration train and showed that
hogs and silos were right now the
fiopular things of Interest to the Wll
amette Valley farmer.
Professors E. L. Potter and W. A.
Barr have given It to them without
any frills attached.
Technical Term Abandoned,
Technical terms have been abandoned
and talks on hogology can be as plain
ly understood as a conversation be
tween men who farm from the top rail
of a worm fence. On the present trip
the Aggie professors talk of and ex
hibit animals which can be raised by
the ordinary farmer for sale on the
Average market. Instead of describing
the methods of breeding a prize winner
for a stock show. All the hogs ex
hibited were purchased at the Port
land Union Stockyards, and are types
which illustrate why different prices
are paid on the same day.
"The home-made silo is just as good
as any patent silo," said Professor Barr.
"You can put up a stave silo for J200
that will hold 100 tons of feed. A
practical cement silo will cost you $350
tf you make it yourself.
"Corn is king for ensilage. Clover,
alfalfa and vetch are good silage crops,
but should have oats or rye added for
their preservative assets. Hay that has
been weather spoiled or has stood until
it has become weedy, makes good
ailage."
700 Out at irnrberg.
' At Newberg where the first demon
stration was given this morning, 700
farmers, many of them accompanied by
their wives, were on hand at 8 o'clock.
Some of them had driven 9 to 12 miles
and had started at 4 o'clock In order
to be there on time.
At Sherwood where the second stop
nd demonstration was made, 600
farmers were waiting for the arrival of
the train. Five lectures were given at
one time in order to specialize informa.
tion wanted upon particular subjects.
The train arrived at Molalla at 3:16
this afternoon and the crowd which
greeted it was declared to be the
largest by several hundred that has
turned out anywhere between Corvallis
and Molalla. It is estimated that 1500
were at the depot. The Molalla brass
band furnished muslo.
Two hundred and fifty farmers were
out here at Canby at 5 o'clock this
afternoon to witness the hog and dairy
demonstration stunts. Tomorrow the
train works from here to Silverton and
plves a night demonstration at Salem.

With Centralia Over Reservoir. '
' OLTMPIA, Wash., Feb. 4. (Special.)
Affirming the Lewis County Superior
Court, the Supreme Court today decided
that the City of Chehalis was entitled
to a reservoir site on the north fork
of the Newaukum River, for which Cen
tralia and Chehalis, rival cities, have
been fighting in tlie courts.
Since the filing of the suit Centralia
has secured the rights of riparian own
ers, but the Supreme Court declined to
pass on this pha.se -of the case, deciding
that it would have to be settled sep
axately. CHKHAIilS. Wash.. Feb. 4. (Spe

lty water system pas begun on the
rigni-oi-way wnicn is Delng cleared on
the headwaters of the north fork of

SALEM, Or.. Feb. 4. (Special.) At
an enthusiastic meeting of the Willam
ette Valley Association here, it was the
unanimous opinion that the "Valley
should be well represented at the
Panama-Pacific Exposition. A commit
tee was appointed to confer with the
state exposition committee in regard to
obtaining space in the agricultura
building, the horticultural building and
the Oregon building.
It was decided the "Valley should have
a space of at least 20 by 100 feet in
the agricultural building.

It was decided to make the exhibit
from the Valley as representative of
the resources as possible, and the only
fesr seemed to be that the space
awarded would not be sufficient. Among
the members of the association present
were: C. H. Stewart, president; E. C.

Soon after the death of the woman,
who had no relatives, as far as was
known by her few Portland friends.

days, that any heir the woman may
have had might have opportunity to
present his or her claim.

BT .ADDISON BENNETT.
HAINES. Or.. Feb. 2. (Special.)
"Whenever I hear the word 'hay." I
think about Haines'; whenever I hear
the word 'Haines,' I think about 'hay.' "
This was a remark I overheard a trav
eling man make here. I suppose he had
been here sometime when there wore
great mountains of hay piled in and
around the town. Jt is said that on dif
ferent occasions as much as 11,000 or
12,000 tons of hay, in bales, has been
piled here near the O.-W. R. & N. depot
for sale and shipment. As a rule these
piles are about 50 feet across, from 100
to 300 feet in length and 15 to 20 feet
high then roofed over.
But such great amounts piled here
does not augur well for the growers;
such a state of affairs means that the
price is low and the owners do not care
to ship. Just now there is but one
great mound, here. This belongs to J.
P. O'Bryant.
The price of hay f. o. b. Haines is
now around 512.50 a ton. That is for
hay in bales, as that is the only way
it can be shipped profitably. Hay at
that price must pay the growers a
good profit. But the wise farmers
hereabouts, and there is a greater
percentage of up-to-date, wide-awake,
progressive land owners and land till
ers in this part of the Powder River
Valley than in almost any other por
tion of Oregon these farmers feed as
much of their hay as they can find
stock for. And those that raise grain,
as most of them do, see that the straw
is gone over by livestock and .then
scattered over the ground and plowed
in. They really sell from their places
the surplus, that which they cannot
feed or have fed.
Haines is one of the best specimens
of a purely agricultural town there is
in Oregon. I almost feel like leaving
the "one" out and saying it is "the"
best specimen of all. This is a place
farmers practically own and run the
town. And do it well. The bank, the
principal mercantile houses, the big
hotel just north of the town, and prac
tically evervthinsr else. lnclnHino- innrtc
and lots, are owned in whole or ini
part by the wealthy farmers and stock
men in this portion of the valley.
Yeara See Growth.
Haines is an old and yet a new town.
Davis Wilcox started a store here a
good many years ago. and for years
was practically alone as a business
man. But duringr the last three or four
years there has been a splendid growth,
and now there are several very large
stocks of goods carried by the various
stores. The Haines Commercial Com
pany and the Farmers' Mercantile Com
pany carry large general stocks. Both
of these stores are practically owned
by the farmers. G. Womack has a fine
dry, goods and notion store which he
runs on a strictly cash basis, and is
doing a fine trade. There -are several
grocery and drug stores and such small
business places blacksmith shops, pool
halls, barber shops, cigar stores, res
taurants as you will usually find in a
place of this size, say COO people.
Then Mr. O'Bryant has a warehouse
and is a large grain and hay buyer.
He also sells coal and other fuel. He
i3 the real live wire hereabouts, a
hustler from the word go. He is a
plunger and yet conservative. That
is, he is one of the sort who is not
likely to get into deeper water than he
can stand up in and keep his head
above the surface. He is a good citi
zen for Haines, a town which he has
seen grow from one little store in
which he was the sole clerk to a town
in -vtfhich ho fully believes and for
which he see3 a bright future. Baker
County has but few more valuable citi
zens than J. F. O'Bryant.
Bank Capital 927,000.
The banking business of the town is
conducted by the Bank of Haines.
Davis Wilcox is the president, B. E.
Harder cashier. It has a capital of
$27,000,and deposits of $126,500. A div
idend of 12 per cent on last year's
business has just been declared. This
bank is controlled by the farmers, Mr.
Harder .excepted. Davis AVilcox is a
farmer only in the sense that he is a
large landowner, being really a capital
ist. He has been the great factor in
bringing Haines up to its present proud
position.
The newspaper of the town, the
Haines Record, is owned and conducted
by Willard D. Nelson, who. established
it 10 years ago. The Record is a good
little paper, gives all of the local news
and seems to be flourishing. The pro
prietor is a splendid citizen and I am
indebted to him for many courtesies.
If the reader thinks Haines is not
doing business Just look over the fol
lowing figures, showing the full car
loads shipped from there last year:
Hay. 800; grain, 250; lumber. 60; gran
ite, 15; concentrates, 60, and livestock,
160. If I can figure correctly, that
makes 1343 carloads. The money value
It is a difficult proposition to get at.
Thb hay was worth perhaps $1,200,000;
the grain, $100,000, and the livestock
from $00,000 to $250,000. But those fig
ures are, aside from the hay and grain
values, mere guesses. Add to these the
concentrates, perhaps $50,000, the gran
ite and the' lumber and then divide it
up among the population and it will
be found that the Haines section of
the Powder River Valley has a very
high income per capita.
The amount of the shipments in less
than car lots is a very difficult prob
lem. It is sure that Haines is making
as great strides forward as a dairy
section as any place in the state. I
counted nearly 300 emty cream cans
on the depot platform. These had been
returned from the creameries at Baker,
La Grande, Portland and other places.
And five years ago. four years ago.
there was scarcely a gallon of cream
shipped. ' '
One 'merchant told me that even now
he can see that the dairy cow has
revolutionized the business of Haines.
Formerly there was an Incoming
stream of money only in the Fall and
Winter; now the cream money is com
ing in every day and is kept in cir
culation. He, pointed to the Womack
cash store as an illustration two or
three years ago such a store in Haines
would have died a-bornin'. And re
member the cows are coming in now
faster than ever before. Rvery condi
tion is Ideal around Haines for the
cow and the hog and it is bound to be
a big and prosperous town.
The erantte rniarrv lust In th ao-a
of town is an asset sufficient to found
pi A
a city upon. Indeed it is enough to
found a state upon, as Vermont and
New Hampshire practically were.
There Is no finer granite in the known
world than the Haines granite. It took
the first prize over all competitors at
the Chicago World's Fair it takes the
blue ribbon wherever shown. And
there is a mountain of it here. In
Baker the Citizens' National Bank has
the entrance of their new building
built of polished Haines granite and
there is no finer doorway in the coun
try. It takes a more beautiful finish
than the finest Scotch granite.
This quarry is only a few hundred
yards from the line of the O.W. R. &
N., and when once the fame of this
stone spreads abroad, as it Is sure to
very soon, the railway company will
get a tremendous tonnage from here
and Haines will have a big payroll.
Will R. King must know all about this
quarry. He is close to the presidential
ear; why does he not in conjunction
with his other duties, see that the new
Portland postoffice is built of this ma
terial? Surely no finer stone can be
found, and no doubt a freight rate
could be secured that would not make
It prohibitive. Xick Slnnott might take
a cue from this letter and see that a
rider is put on the bill to that effect.
The quarry Is owned and operated by
the Northwestern Granite Company, of
Baker.
Springs Are of Value.
Haines has another asset of Immense
value the Radium Hot Springs, which
are located just north of town. There
Is a fine hotel at the springs, owned by
Ed W. Coles, one of the wealthy and
enterprising farmers and stockmen of
the valley. The water of these springs
is about like other medicinal springs of
the West, and is yery hot about 156
degrees. There is an abundance of it.
The hotel building is finely equipped
for a pleasure resort and sanatorium.
It has not been a big paying invest
ment thus far, because it is a little too
far from town. Haines now needs bet
ter hotel accommodations, and if Coles
could be induced to move the building
Into town and run it as a Summer and
Winter resort not as a hospital he
could do a big business. The house Is
admirably fitted for balls and banquets,
and the people from Baker alone would
keep it running pretty well up to ca
pacity. Charles Purdin is the manager
and he is a jovial and efficient man for
the place.
I might go on and tell about the ad
mirable water system of Haines, the
fine schools, neat and tasty residences,
the wide streets, line shade trees, splen
did depot building, the five immense
grain warehouses and above all the
splendid environs. But I have, I think,
said enough to show that Haines is a
"coming" city. If it is not, then there
Is nothing in resources and nothing in
a pushing citizeship, both of whlrfh
Haines is rich in.
