The Harrinmn Hues arc equipping another farming demonstration train, which will bo started' out March 21 and travel for ten days through eastern Oregon. There will be seven exhibit ears, and a business far for the twelve agricultural college lecturers and the accompanying rail- road officials. The train is the most extensively equipped of any yet sent out. There is a car for live stock, one for farm ma chinery, one for poultry, one for horticultural, one for agronomy and one for dairy machines, care for fancy stock and poultry, besides those for equipment designed to make forming pay better. Later in the season the demonstration train will go over the Southern Pacific lines. These trams nave been beneficial to the farmer and fruit raiser, showing him how to make more money out of his industry. The central idea of the railroad is, of course, to increase the products of the farm, to induce scientific farming, to promote in tensified farming, to the end that the prosperity of the country will be increased, and with it the tratiic ot tne railroad. BOOST THE FRUIT EXCHANGE. The organization of the Rogue River Fruit and Produce association means more to the future of the valley than nv ftvftnt of the vear thus far. If given the proper sup port, it will solve effectually and effectively the problem of picking, packing ana marKeting iruit. The organization will be operated along lines which experience has demonstrated practical in California, and is designed to end tne wnoiesaie rouuurj- uj. iiuU,w j unscrupulous commission men. Its success means uiu t tablishing of uniformity of pack and standard of excel lPiif.fi that will be a fruarantee to the purchaser and a con etant advertisement of the Rogue River valley. It means . that the legitimate profits now paid to brokers will lie saved to the grower. It means a systematizing auu uuai ness organization of the fruit growing industry, and the handling of the orchard output on modern and up-to-date lines. What one grower is powerless to accomplish and what many growers competing against eacn omer can never accomplish, can now be brought about through the new association. The weakness of the a.01: cultural producers has always been the lack of unity and the absence of the community or. interests iuuu, wmiru the foundation of the modern industrial worm. Every fruit grower in the valley and every business man who can afford it, should assist the new central asso ciation by subscribing for its stock and marketing its products through it. It is essential lor tne ruture or. uuui city and country that tne association ue maue bucm. ' .- HARMONY NEEDED AT THE FALLS. ' r - "While the newspapers of Portland are containing full page advertisements of real estate boomers of Klamath Falls, in which the city is described as the Spokane of Oregon with a future equal to if not greater, than New York, the newspapers of JUamatn JJ'ans are imea wim -cartoons picturing the most prominent citizens and the men who have built the city as pigs. The news columns, which should be filled with articles descriptive of the coun try and its prospective future, such as will inspire confi dence in the minds of prospective investors and home seekers, are given overto a disgusting factional squabble. A city is judged by its residents, by its local newspa pers, and Klamath Falls is evidently a city divided against itself, and such a city cannot have much of a future. Dis cord and jangling will soon ruin any town, no matter what its natural advantages may be. The conditions existing at the Falls are unfortunate for that city and for central Oregon. United effort is needed to make Klamath Falls a city, and if this effort is not forth coming it will never be a city. There never was a time when there was greater necessity for harmony in Oregon cities than at present, with so many homeseekers headed this way. Cities are not made by nature, but by the enterprise of man, and selling town lots at fancy prices in distant towns will not create one. One good, live newspaper is worth as much to a growing community as a commercial club, and one good paper is all that a city tho size of Klam ath Falls can support; but such a paper cannot afford to abuse its leading citizens and preach tho gospel of discord. sary in order to provent widespread thho valley.
