That Union county is admirably
adapted to profitable dairying as well
as one of the leading alfalfa produc
ers, potato culture, beet growing, the
fruit industry and. a large and varied
line of other Industries, Is reflected in
a year'.y account kept by Willard
Couch of Ladd Canyon, who devotes
some of his time to dairying. This
incident is only one of a dozen, and
some of them would perhaps show a
greater percentage of profit than this
one.
A Good Report.
Mr. Couch reports that from 20
cows he realized (1236 for butter fat
in II months, exclusive of cheese
made from the milk.'' To produce the
feed and fodder for these SO cows, it
required but four months of hay feed
ing; the other eight months' feed
was obtained on the pasture. No
grain or bran feed was used at all
during tlioe it months.
. Profitable Chicken Raising.'
Not only content with dairying
along scientific ways, Mr. Couch' de
votes considerable profitable time to
Just past the farmer realized 1188.20
from eggs, and (71 from the sale of
chickens to the meat markets. Twelve
months ago Mr. Couch had 75 chick
ens and he still has that number. The
cost of feeding the chickens Is a trif
ling figure. ' The hens rustled their
feed from the haystacks.
Through these two sources of . rev
enue the former has entered on the
desirable side of the ledger an Item
reading 11495.20, while the ranch has
been bringing In the UBual revenues
obtained from the ordinary Grande

IX COVER VALUABLE BOX.
Pendletonlan Finds Long LMt Tin Boa
in City LUuiu. .
Nearly SO years ago a tin box con
taining $1120 In gold coin was burled
by J. B. Jacobs in the yard of his
home near the Catholic thurch in this
city, says the Pendleton Tribune.
Twenty-six years ago the greatest
flood ever seen by white men in the
Umatilla river, swept down the valley
and inundated the then small town of
Pendleton. When the waters receded
Jacobs, who now lives on Tutullla
creek, was unable to find his cache of
gold.
Wednesday of this week and while
working for Jim Hastings, the house-
mover, and employed in removing the
old house from its location. Tom
Johnson,' a young laborer, found the
box with the money In it'
At least it Is the firm belief of the
officers, Mr. Jacobs and others, that
he found the box and the money, el
though he now denies It.
That night he proceeded to do the
town as it had never been done be'
fore, buying SO glasses of champagne
at one time for his friends tax the ten
derloln district Altogether he blew In
1250 that night say the police, who
have been looking the matter up.
While under the influence of liquor
he boasted he had found a box con
taining IlltO In gold.
' The fact that the amount burled by
Jacous uunea wua uie eiuouui i
claimed to have found under the
house and also that since that time
he has been possessed of an unusual
amount of money for one tn his cir
cumstances, leads to the general be
lief that he really found the wealth. .
Johnson was placed under arrest by
Marshal Qurdane Friday evening, and
was released again. Yesterday Mr
Jacobs, through his attorney, J. Roy
Raley, !riit to vn.vo Johnson Indict'
ed, but Acting District Attorney Pe
terson refused to issue an indictment
on the evidence furnished.
If it- can be proven that Johnson
found the money and converted it to
his own use he will be guilty of lar
ceny. Had Clone CaU.
Bert Bohn, a fireman In tha employ
of the O. R. & N. here, met with an
accident Sunday night whereby he
may lose his eyesight. Mr. Bohn was
getting ready to go on his run when
:ie attempted to light the acetylene
neadllght of his engine In the yards,
at the shops, last night about 11
o'clock, when he struck a match and
opened the crystal to the headlight,
and the accumulation of gas there ex
ploded, burning Mr. Bonn's face, eye
lashes and eyebrows. A physician was
called who dressed the wounds and
the man was taken to Portland this
morning. It was not known whether
the man's eyesight will be permanent
