Mr. Henney has been very thorough in the preparation of this station and has it in fine shape as far as is in his power. The moisture conditions are good, but the land is very sandy and will require some time and the addition of considerable quanti ties of humus to put it in ideal condition. However good results should come from some crops, es pecially alfalfa The land was measured off into plots and plans made for the plantings to be made this year. Answered many- letters of in quiry from people here and out side in regard to dry farming, crops adapted, etc., etc. Mailed out several more packages of seeds to Co-operators. A. W. Walters has been em ployed as permanent teamster at the Station. Lyle Dawson will be located at the Station this summer. The winter grains are growing slowly. The chance has not come for seeding the field peas. The land is too wet to work. Seed ing will probably be done about the 10 of April. Would prefer that it was done by the first of April. Visited the Valley View sub station under the care of Mr. Shaver. This station is in good condition as to moisture. Staked it out and made plans for plant ing this year. Visited the Harriman sub-station on the place of Mr. Laythe, now under the care of Mr. Curry. Staked the place out into plots and made plans for planting this year. This station is in good condition and should give fair results. The moisture conditions are good, but the soil is a bad one to bake and form slick spots. Visited the Waverly sub-station and made plans for planting this year. Tbe moisture conditions are only fair on this station. However, the land which is of the foothill type is good. Good results should be had with the best dry land crops. To give an idea of the kind of a test of varieties that will be made on the Experiment Station this year there will be between sixty and seventy different vari eties of field peas alone planted. Which ono ia the beat for Harney County? That's what we are planting them for. Baptiat Church.
