raising cattle, hogs and grain, he will
be more likely to make Oregon his

It Is then very Important for the

which exists hre. the most extensive,
namely, the diversified farming. For
this is th?1deal pot for the middle
west farmer ,who 1 expects to farm
tnuch the same way as he farmed in
the section.' The dlffsrence Is that he
vill produce more and make more
money for the amount of labor ex
pended in this Grande Ronde valley
than he will in most places.

nt1i- la In th matter of lnterseC-'
tions. The entire city should pay for
these Intersections. It la hut right
and fair. The entire community uses
the highways and the least that could
be done would have been to let the
entire city pay for the Intersections
which really belong to no particular
piece of real estate but are owned in
fact by the city as a whole. Ir is not
too late yet for this equitable mea
sure to be adopted by the city council
and -we understand there is quite a
feeling among the different members
for it.
The pnople bearing the paving ex
pense would appreciate it very much
if they were relieved from individual
ly paying for tbe Intersections and the
city In paying for them would tos only
doine what is absolutely right and
