The people at Independence and Monmouth have lieeii iwtlent, very patient, and waited for the completion and tlie u the operation of the motor line eoiilldetit that the vftxatlon delay would dually cease and we could all get on the "keers" and take ride. Dodgers about th streets ou Monday announced that ft tmlu would leave the deit at i u'uhK'k for Moiiimmlh, At the appointed hour the coach -and flat car were tui oMwded with young ud old the num berlug by actual 1 W, and during the day 640 roii were carried over the road. Amid loud huxxa the train pullisl uit for Monmouth at an entirely too slow rate to suit the Impalleut ua engi'r. The engineer wa careful and the engine new and full of oil o that when the grade was reached the tralu oanie to a tml tlll All liauit.got lown and puheU the ear over the hill sud the arrival wa safely made In Monmouth, A brief stay wa made ftud the train returned. The ladle wcupled the coach and the gentlemen the flat car. Along the side of the flat cat wa a large cloth sign reading "Indcpciidcnce- Monuioutb" and between the name s pair of hamtochuipettoMtgnlfy that the two town are now united lu closer union. It was very generally remarked that he mad was very meolh Indeed and in passing over It scarcely any rocking Is unttced. The finish of the engine ind coach wa favorably eoumieulvd UMn. - The proposed rate of flveceirt fare striken everyone a remarkably low. fo ride two and a half mile for the sunt of Ave cent nermi so ridiculously heap, that we know of a great many who will travel over the road on the leant pretext Just to patretilre It. When e come to cuudder the matter from a lUslnesa tandpolnt the director are se to charge only five cents. (Irant hat one hundret pa over the road at en cent It only take s many more il half the price to ainoui t to the same iiiii, and low fares wilt build up ?r- uaneut busine, and when the mudsiif winter come no one will even (iltch op their own horse to aave leu cent for a rouud trip. A ftve-ce ul fare will idvance the sale of town lot all along the motor line, and the future pr- 11 of the tisid are largely dcMndcut upon the settlement of the laud lying between the two town. TUB RW'KtTluM. In the evening the people of Mon mouth with 'heir accustomed oiien learteduew piefmred an etogaut repast which the officers of the railway louipauy and member of city council Independence were luvllvd. Hon. X, L. Itutler delivered one of hi jueiit addrtsMa In which he stinted out the future of Polk county in glowing color. He spoke In prlm of theenterprlslugmeu who bad risked so much and who have luauguratud an enterprise whose far-reaching iiiflueui'e we cannot at present estimate with any accuracy. Mr. F. A. Patterson, ptcsldcul of the motor railway eompauy, re(oni!cd In fitting maimer thanking the people of MoumiHitli fir the iordlal and hearty welcome. About thirty Iheu sat down to well tilled tables. After the repast all boarded the motor train and returned to thl city. Taking It all iu all, the opening of the motot Hue I under the must favorable auspices and we congratulate the mover lu this enterprise upon It luocvssful com pletion. SUPPORT THE HOME PAPER. Why? Uecause, If for no better rea son, the home new pasr support you, You wake up om in a while per haps, and forsaking private busluew;, iu which for year you have lsn Im mersed, you turn tint and snd a day or an hour for the public gsl -at the polls fighting UKulnst the re-election of a toxsller, at a public meeting talking for waterworks or ome new enterprise, and then you return to your pursuit, leaving the ncwpacr to clinch the victory or protect tlie retreat, a the raise nmy be.

Ilul that, you may ay, I a sentimental reason, and do It to, partly. No self rcsicctlng men would urge It alone. The strict business reason for support ing the homo paper 1 that It pays directly a well a indirectly. Let two men try to oppose policies.

The Willamette valley to Indeed the ganleii sit f Oregon. It to a most ts'iiutlful and productive country with Isdiuy climate, lying ladween the nvist and Cascade range of mouulalu At till st-asou of the year II present s ttiosl charming snd busy pect, a vieweil from one uf II IiIkIi eminences A ron standing ou one of thone high jsiltit caii bsik from range to range Kcrtns the valley, and up and dowu ll from twenty-five to It fly mile. Ou a cler day object may be scpii at a great dUtance. Uefore you lie thou nds, yea, several hundred thousand acre of grain, of all shades from that of deep green to gold color. Wheat I the prtuc!)il production or this country, oats ranking next Ihith are raised ou a largu scale, snd both winter and summer wheat and eat do well The smallest farmer ha fifty to MMnty-tlve acroa, snd from that up to hundreds of acre. The amount of wheat raised to a farmer I from five hundred bushels to t vetity thousand bushel. About one-half that amount of oat 1 raised. Wheat doe not rlen l once a in Ohio. It to uot crowded hy the season. It seldom If ever see rain after beading out, and conse quently to never aifccled with rust. The cisd night, morning and even ing cause It to mature gradually. It lakes ataiill four week from the time It begin to take It gulden color until It mature ufllctently fur the reier. And what a beautiful bright yellow color It has. It never get dead ripe In s few day, and w hen hilly fit for the rviier It may stand from five to teu day and uot shell out. Just unw, and for the last two week, farmer are cutting winter wheat and oata, and It may require probably the mot of August to bur vest the spring cwsi. The lime of maturing both whiter ami spring wheat I somewhat aftcclcd hy (hue of sowing. In cutting grul ii four horses are usually hitched to self-binder or to a header, There Is-lng Utile or no dew, and the sun not very hot, the farmei Is rimMcd to be nt It early and lute, and cau work steadily, cutting from fifteen to twenty acre per day, No notice Is taken to put up au exact number of sheave to the shock, The shock generally are long and two sheaves thick, and are never cnpMd with a break sheaf, since It Is not misled on account of rain. Just as soon a wheat Is In shock threshing bcglns-haviug already la-gun. Threshing I quite a novelty here The machine used usually have a capacity of ubout thirty-live hundred bushel Hir day. The thresher does nil the work, and boards the hands, the farmer only furnishing wood mid horse feed. He provide himself wit h eight to ten team, pitcher ami loader; has hi kitchen or boarding tent on wheels, something like a large photograph gallery on wheel, with several oooks, where the oouklng uiul boarding of hand I doue, When he get ready he drive Into the farmer1 ll,oli nnd threshes hi grain, whether the farmer to present ur nut, The wheat I put up in sack of t wo bushels each, nud stacked up lu the Held, where It remains for several week, when It I hauled to the shipping warehouse, tlranarlc are a rare tiling here, and farmers never store grain. They prefer to haul at once to the shipping warehouse and pay tho storage. The straw 1 hauled out with an apparatus for that purpose nnd burned. Sometime It I bated for feed. Tlie average oost i about seventy-live dollar to run a thresher per day, and the average eiirulngs about one hundred and twenty-five dollar per day. Wheat growlug tu this country to very profitable. It I never a fahu'e. bot tom farm yield from HO to 4f and 60, bushels ifi the acre, and hill farm from lfi to 2fl and 80,' Out yield In the mime, proportion, and are harvested the iinp tiu'ena. wheat, ltcv.i N.
