RECTTERATE WORN-OVT FARMS
The United States forest service has
a plan for the utilization of the worn
out farms of the country scheme
to mnke them a paying proposition.
The Idea Is simply to plant trees. An
Ohio farmer suggested the scheme.
II owns a homestead where farming
has been a losing proposition. He has
therefore decided to plant the entire
tract with trees. Norway spruce has
been selected as the tree, and as soon
as they are lage enough they will be
old for Christina trees and, hy the
way, Christmas trees bring first-clans
prices.
One of the fundamental principles
of forest economics, say tho ejtpcrta,
is that anil which Is not good enough
to make the growing profitable, should
D devoted to the production of wood
crop Instead of cereal crops. This
doe not mean that trees grow better
on poor loll than on fertile soil. Rut,
in proportion to the money Invented,
better returns are secured from t,roes
planted on the 1 valuable land,
The Ohio farmer mentioned above
expects to plant chestnut In the blank
paces left after removal of the first
crop of Christmas frees. ' About the
time- when the last spruce la cut. It Is
predicted that the chestnut will be
ready for the ax. In addition, catal
pa, black, locust, elm,, btix-eldor nd
sycamore will hr planted. All of the
trees mentioned are excellent for the
purpose; growing well on lees fertile
land, and furnishing a comparatively
' quick return on tli money Invented.

WANTS TO "DIVVY" l'P.

The board of "regents of the slrue

WHEAT OPENS STRONG.
The wheat market tarta off much
better this season thau. It ,dld last.

with the advance In the price of grain
will go g long way In offsetting the
shortage In some fields. "Many fields
will be fully up to the average, while
some of the spring grain will fall
short, but thoe who generally keep
a close watch on the business end of
things are of the opinion that there
will be a much wheat money a usual,

SPECIMEN OF LAW EVASION.
The people of Union county have
willed that their county be dry. The
lliiuor element have willed otherwise.
In so far as they can prevent the will
of the people they will do so. There
I n way In which Jhe law can be
kept, but the spirit and the Intent of
It be broken at the same time and by
the same act. It is now unlawful .to
sell Intoxicating liquor, wlthln.the tor-'
rltory abovo mentioned. But, liquor!
can be bought on tbe outside and
shipped Into this dry region Just as It!
was bought and shipped Into Wallowa
county for the past two . years. To
that end the liquor element are busy
today. The undersigned (as well as
hundreds of others In Union county,
have doubtless by this time) has had
circular from a well known whisky
house In an adjoining county offer
ing to sell and to ship to his address
any quantity of any sort of drink ho
wishes. This la to be In plain, un
marked package so a no( to Indicate,
the content. " -'
. Here we. need- the LlttleflHd (or
other) bill, whose purpose was to pre
vent the shipping of wt good Into
dry territory. Ppenker Cannon pre
vented the bill to come to It passage,
alleging It to be unconstitutional.
For this resson we are now, as are
all other dry communities,' at the
mercy of the merciless. Thus Is seen
the unpatriotic character of the craft.
A patriot Is a man who loves his whole
country and respects the will of the
people !n on part of it as well as the
other. '
