Brumwell, of this county, at the farmers' institute, at Iuv hier' March 14 and published in the Observer of the 24lb., where in he points out the possibility of the removal of the beet sugur factory from Gande Ron de val ley unless more beets are grown in the valley. . ' Tne senond is tne omoiHl re port of the Am riemi consul, H. B. Miller, at Nicuchwang, Man churia,' China, under1' date of Nov. 12, 1903, on "Wheat grow ing and milling in Manchuria," published in Monthly Consular Reports of Mrrch, 1904 and re. ceived by the Observer yester day, the 24th. inst. Mr. Miller it an Oregon man, . represented bis oounty, Josephine, severii times in the Oregon legislature, an active and successful manu fttctuier, farmer and Oichardist, was one time president of the State , Agricultural College at Corvallis, and now U. S. Con sul at the important Port of Niuohweng, - in Manchuria, China His official reports are coQaeeded to be among the ablest that re received by the State Department at Washing ton' i In his report be gives many facie and figuros tending to show that Russia', : our most formidable "competitor in the sale of wheat tu Europe, U mak ing; gigautin strides towards heading us off iu the flour and wheat trade with the Orient. He opens his report with - the statement that "The Chinese Eastern Railway, the southeast ern erminus ot the Siberian Railway, in its course through Manchuria to its end at Port Arthur, passes through 1,000 miles of as continuously rich agricultural country as cau be found any where in the world." The Liao valley he describes as containing 62,500 square' miles, a land where crop. failures and famine are almost unknown; growers will where wheat in a small way has Beiioubly. been grown for i centuries, end the entire valley is an excellent wheat producing country, Tot re' are other large and productive valleys in Manchuria, the whole of which covers 360,000 square miles, the much greater part of which is productive, with a pop ulation of about 3,000,000, le.-s than ten to the square mile, a sparce population for the Orien', being about twice aa thickly settled as Oregon, with neatly four times the area of Oregon. At tht time Mr. Miller wro'e, last November, Russian immi grants were rushing into- that region. In the new city of Harbin, but four y( are old, there were 60,000 Russians and 40,000 immigrants from China. 'In 1900 there was not a single flour mill there; uow there are eight running with a daily capacity in the aggregate of 3,800 bar rels of flour, and two in con struction that will soon be fin ished and increase the daily output to 4,600 barrels of flour Mr. Miller says:. "In Manchur ia, by the early part of 1904, ana within three years from the bnildiug of the first mill by the Russians, they will have mills with a daily capacity of 5,000 barrels of flour, and he adds. "In my opinion this is only the beginning." This will give the mills of Manchuria a yearly out put of a million and a half bar rels of flour. In addition to the flour made in Manchuria by Ru sian mills, which are first class and modern in all their, appointments, the Souih Ussuri district of Siberia near the Pacific coast, has 12 steam flouring mills and a num ber of others operated by water. The production of the 12 steam mills is 433,334 barrels oi flour a year. The Russian govern ment and bunks are encourag ing by -every means - iu theii power, which is immense, the construction of flour" mills' in Manchuria aud South Ussuri, (he undisguised purpose being not only to supply the Oriental market with flour, but to ship a large quautity to Europe, all of which Mr. Miller thinks they will be able to do within four years. If Russia captures the Oriental flour tiade our wheal feel the effect at ii a a o a.
