" As the staeon advances the out look for the coming apple crop in the Doited States becomes poorer. K big crop Was not to be expected, following last year's large crop, and in addition the spring has been un favorable. The present indications are that there will be a Rood de mand at profitable prioes for all shipping apples grown in the North west and it is probable that it will pay this year to' evaporate apples which are not good enough to be shipped. Every boy should paste this in his hat. Two business men were conversing on a street corner the other day when a lad about fifteen "passed by and one of them re marked: "That's a bright boy; I am watching him. If he gets . through another year without con tracting any bad habits so prevalent among sixteen year oia ooys in town, I know where he will get the offer of a good position." The boya should remember that they are watched by business men. The . boy who is Btudious, prompt, ener - gelio and reliable is preparing the way for a good position from Eome body. There are not enough such young men to meet the constant demand. ' . In the death of Dr. J. V. Watts, of Lafayette, who died at hia home Saturday, at the ripe age of 69 years, there is removed a man, who " not only was prominent in the -pol itical affairs of Oregon for a number of years, but at one time also a con- spicuous figure in the affairs of the nation. "Dr. Watts stood between Samuel J. Tilden and the presi dency in 1878; in other words it was his vote that elected Ruther ford B. Hayes.; The squabble over the electoral vote of Oregon, the ef forts to disqualify Watts and the '. final determination of the matter by ' the electoral commission, which . decided in favor of Watts, is bis-- tory yet fresh in the minds of the public. The vote of Watts settled -the Tilden-Hayee content and gave the country a Republican preeident instead of a Democratic president. Entering a New Era. The Portland Oregonian, in a recent :v Issue, under the caption of "Portland's "'Opportunity," scores a number of points . -which are particularly applicable to c Medford at this time. ' - Like Portland, wo are just now enter ing a new era, and the fact must be -clear that the new epoch cannot be limited to any former scale of opera tions. We must discard the petty jealousies of village life, the knockinsrs and the pulling hack, and push forward id a solid line like an army advancing to an attack. .Nature bas decreed tbat '.Medford is to be -the leading city of Southern Oregon, the richest and mo-t .productive section of the state, and it falls to the duly of our people to grasp -the situation with a firm band and Im prove it. There can be no turning back, no milk-and-water support of beneficial policies unless the purpose is to injure tne uuy. There is now under wav of construe tlon one of the most extensive Irrigating ditches in the state. The completion - of tbiB great enterprise means a great . ueai lor tno ungue river valley, and . incidentally to Aledford, for whatever is beneficial to tbe valley generally Is either directly or indirectly beneficial to Med ford. The construction of the 1 ditch will make possible the cultiva tion of thousands of acres of unproduc- - tive and idle land; it will make more productive the thousands of acres of land which' is ' now under cultivation and It will render possible (he accom- ..plishment of many other things wbicb could not otherwise be dono.- A company has been organized in the city whose purpose it is to thoroughly : teat toe-land In tbe vicinity of Medford to ascertain whether or not oil .-exists here.. The success of this-enterprise, like all others of public Import, depends entirety upon toe support ana eneour agement given it by the citizens who ? will be either directly ,or Indirectly benefited by its success. A thorough examination of the surface of the land which the company controls gives every ' indication of oil, and the company has an abiding faitb in the success of their undertaking. But aa before stated its .. success depends wholly upon looal sup port, and the support, if given at all. should be tendered without grudging and without doubt of its xnco'-fB. A feeling of enthusiasm should per vade the community for every prigoet out forward for the nubile irood Th order of march has been given, and let us not turn back. - INSTRUCTIVE TALK Mr Smith Discusses Di versified Farming as Compared With Single Crop flet hods Advo cates Establishment of Creameries. 7 Last Monday a'ternoon the initial step was taken In what is hoped will result in the adoption by the farmers of Jaokson County, of the diversified plan of farming which has been crowned with such Haltering suuoesa wherever it bas been tried, aud which is Uuln, generally adoptud all over Oregon and our sister -late, wasninginn. At the request of C. H. Markham, ncttnir for the Southern PnoiHo Rail road Company, 0. L. Smith, a practical aud experienced dairyman aud farmer from Minnesota, gave a most Interest ing ami instructive talk at the opora house ou tno subject otaiversiited mrm ing ana dairying. Mr. Smith is one of a small coterie Minnesota farmers, who, twenty years ago awoke to a realization of the mot tbat tbe svstera of one crop farm In was bound to ultimately result In fall ure, and who, with about a dozen other raeu ol similar minds undertook to terest the armors of the stale in the dairying industry. How well they sue ceeded Is shown by the fact that Minne sotn bas In operation today 780 cream' erles which make annually 85,000,000 pounds ol butter wblob they sell at an nvorago market price of 20i centa per nound. In 1858 tbe slate had. not creamery within its borders, buldurin that year three were established. They were so successful that the lollowtng year the number was ' increased thirty, and the next year to one nun dred. The inorease in the number of creameries brought an increase In tb income of the farmers so far In excess of what the most sanguine expected that they Increased rapidly each euu ceeding jear until the final great sultabove mentioned has been attained and during tbe thirteen years in which creameries have been In operation land in tbat state bas more tban quadrupled in value. What has been accomplished In Min oesota has been accomplished wherever tbe matter has been tried, the result: being in oroportion to the efforts pu lortb. During the psst three years M Smith has been laboring in eastern Washington in tbe interest of diversi fied farming, and during the earlv part ol bis work met with tbe same dlscou agements, the same disbelief among the farmers ot tbat state tbat be con fronted in bla own state ta tbe begin ning. Washington has always been regarded as a purelv grain state and that no product other than wheatcould be raised with profit. Yet today there are several largo oo-ODoratlve cream cries In operation in Washington, one of which is paying large dividends ' am tbe farmers who are interested are cn joying a greater remuneration for tbel labors than they secured for a number ol years previous. it nas ouen out recently that tbe Campaign of EJr.cation"- was com menced in tbe Willamette valley. our own state, and tbe results aie ' al readv becoming apparent. 'Farmers are taking an interest in stockraislng, dairying and kindred matters. There are a number of creameries in opera lion at different points in the valley, which are meeting with the same mens ure 'of- success attained elsewhere Farmers are discarding tbeir poor Block and replacing them with higher grades tney are seeding their farms to grassen lor pasturage and are preparing to em bars: more extensively in Uio system o diversified farming next !r. . Tbe results which have been attainei elsewhere Mr. Smith argues, and with sound logic, can b had in the Roizi e river valley. I bis Is Mr. Smith's firs visit to thin section of the state and his surprise at finding a valiev sn admira lily adapted to the sy.-ti'm of farming of wnleh he 19 the champion, was evi denced by the glowing and enthusiastic trihuto which be naid it. ThesuiD and snhstance of Mr. Smith's remarks was to the effect if farmers are to succeed In business they must be business-like: that they should kno what every cow returns him; what every bushel of wheat costs to raise it: tbe cot of production of evervthinir raised on the farm. When he talks on farming be doe not Hav to quote the experience or someone cue no nas lol lowed and studied the business all his life. He bas had seventeen vears of farmers' institute worn in Minnesota: ha beard the experience of hundreds of other farmers, and "osseeses a wonder iui store or anowieoge on all line? per taining to his work. His talk was so plain acd his arguments ro logical that it could not fail to carry cmvic.ion Uf els hearers. That his advice could be adopted with profit by our farmers I proven by what trie been accomplished eisewnere. Text Books Selected.
