No Closed Season for Trout
There is no longer a closed sea
son for trout fishing in the state of
Oregon except in the Unipqua
river and its tributaries, and ang
lers may fish for trout at any time
of the year in any river or creek in
the state except in the Unipqua
river and its tributaries, says the
Portland Journal.
This condition of affairs was
brought about by the last legis
lature by an act which amended
the old law. Its effect was not dis
covered until Robert Shaw, Judge
Webster's private tecretary, dis
covered the effect of the amend
ment while noting in the judge's
code the changes in the laws made
by the legislature.
.The closed season for trout was
formerly November, December,
January, February and March.and
was prescribed in section 2034 of
the code. By an act of the last
legislature this section was amend
ed, so that now the only statute
providing a closed season for trout
reads as follows:
It shall be unlawful for any
person to take, catch, kill or have
in his possession any trout, except
aalmon trout, during the months
of December, January and Feb
ruary of any year taken from the
waters of the Umpqua river or its
tributaries, or at any time to take,
catch, kill, or have in bis posses
sion any trout, char or salmon less
than five inches in length, or to
take, catch, or kill the same by
any means whatever except with
hook and line, commonly called
angling."
. It is held that the closed season
provision of this amendment of
the old law applies only to the
Umpqua river and its tributaries,
leaving no law whatever providing
a closed season for trout fishing in
any other stream in the state. The
bill was introduced by Represent
ative Jackson of Roseburg, and
was passed without change. The
amendment is found on page 54 of
the 1907 session laws.
Section 'A4 it shall be un
lawful for any person to take, catch
kill, or have in pospession any
trout, during the months of Novem
ber, December, January, February
and March of anv vear. and it
shall be unlawful for any person
to take, catch, kill, or have in pos
' session at any time any trout
char or salmon less than . five in
cnee in length, and it shall be un
lawful for any person to take,
catch or kill at any time in the
waters of this state any trout by
any means whatever except with
hook and line, and any person fish
ing with hook and line, who, upon
lifting the same, shall find ai:y
trout, char or salmon, less than
rive inches in length caught or en
tangled thereon shall immediately,
with care and the least possible
injury to the fish, disentangle and
and let loose the siflne, and trans
mit the fish to the water without
violence."
It is generally believed that it
was the intention merely to shor
ten the closed season on the
qua from five months to
months, and leave all the
streams in the state with
Ump
three
other
a five
months closed season, but the ef
fect was to give the Umpqua a
three months closed season, and
other streams no closed season at
all.
' The law can not be remedied
until the next legislature convenes
in 1909, and many believe that by
the time an amendment could he
made effective trout in Oregon
streams would be nearly all fished
out.
Alfalfa Without Irrigation.
Alfalfa is now generally recogniz
ed as the most satisfactory hay and
pasture plant that has been grown
on dry land which has previously
been in cultivation. On such land
it does not reach its highest devel
opment until about the third year
since it requires 6ome time for the
root syst?m to develop sufficiently
- lnvarlably In Advrc
W Month -
Single Copit -

to take up the required moisture
for the riant. Therefore, little
must be exited of it the first
year.
When properly sown and cared
for a fair crop of hay can be ex
pected the second year. Since al
falfa does not cive its larcest re
turns for two or three years it
should be sown with the expecta
tion of allowing it to occupy the
grounds for a number of years.
The success ot alfalfa depends
largely upon the preparation of
the soil, the method of seeding and
the care of the stand. I have
spent considerable time studying
the met h this of the farmers most
successful in growing alfalfa with
out irrigation and have learned a
few things that may be of value.
The cround selected for alfalfa
should be as free as possible from
weeds and in perfect tilth. In all
localities where the rainfall is not
sufficient to grow wheat without
summer fallowing every other year
the land should be plowed deep n
the fall, winter or early spring. It
should be thoroughly cultivated
during the spring ai.d summer to
kill the weeds, retain moisture and
put the soil in good tilth. In such
localities the subsoil of new land is
comparatively dry when compared
with that of the same kind of
land which has been farmed for a
number of years.
Alfalfa is a deep feeder and re
quirea pleuty ot moisture tor its
best development. It is quite es
sential therefore.that land be selec
ted that has produced a number ot
crops to be sure of plenty of mois
ture in the subsoil to carry the
young plants through the first dry
summer. Near the mountains
where the rainfall is sufficient, the
growing of a thoroughly cultivated
crop of corn, potatoes or sugar
beets will put the land in good con
dition for alfalfa. Land that has
produced a crop of wheat, oats or
barley may be plowed in the fall,
cultivated thoroughly in the spring
and the seed sown with the land in
fairly good condition.
Alfalfa does not require much
care the first season, more than to
mow the weeds a few times during
the summer to prevent them from
seeding and to keep them from
smothering the young alfalfa plants
it is wen to mow the held two or
three times during the season, but
the growth of weeds and alfalfa
should not be cut too close to the
cround. It seems to lie true that
when alfalfa becomes well estab
lished, frequent close cutting seems
to benefit the plants and cause
them to grow more vigorously but
this is not true of the young,tender
ones. It is true of alfalfa as with
any other young plant, that it
must form a top growth before or
at the same time that it is produc
ing roots. The leaves are the
stomach and lungs and before the
roots can develop, the leaves must
manufacture the products which
are built into cells and tissue that
constitute the root.- If this top
growth of leaves is kept cut off be
fore sufficient root growth has been
established to easily restore the
top growth, the effect is to stop
the growth ot the plant. Byron
Hunter in Field and Farm.
Will Soon Begin to Build.
Charles Graves, of Odell, says
the Klamath Falls Daily Herald, is
authority for the following state
ments, receiving his information
direct from Engineer Journy, of
the 8. P. Co.'s . engineering force:
Mr. Graves stated that work on
the survey of the Oregon Eastern
between the Klamath Falls-Nat: on
line and the Oregon Short Line
was practically completed, with
the exception that the new survey
had not been approved. The work
now being done is on the third sur
vey, the first two having proved
unsatisfactory. The second sur
vey shortened the distance some
three miles over the first, while
the third shows a .gain . of about
3000 feet over the second, and in
these strenuous days of railroading
every inch count?. Hetwwn Odell
and Natron the surveyors sre find
ing an easy grade over the divide.
although it is necessary to make
some wide curves and maintain
the grade required. The canyons
and ridges make the engineering
problem quite serious when it is
necessary to build a road not only
of an easy grade but also at the
same time avoid all sharp curves.
While Mr. Graves hat no infornm-
tfon concerning the time when
actual construction work would be
commenced, yet he believes that it
will not be long before the crews
are put to work.

Never Stop Advertising.
e wonder it our home mer
chants ever stop to think why the
big mail order houses are so sue
cessful. Their success lies in their
continual advei Using of their goods
says the Hunkville (Mo.) Herald.
They never stop advertising lie-
cause of change of season or for
any other reason. The county
newspapers have been fighting
these mail order houses hard for
years for the benefit of the home
merchant, and some of the mer
chants appreciate this and some of
them do not. If the mail order
houses would practice advertising
by "spurts" in certain seasons of
the year, like some country mer
chants, they would soon go out of
business. While the local or home
merchant keeps his business
"under a bushel," so to speak, or
out of their local paper on account
of hot, dry or wet weather, or had
roads, they are giving the mail
order houses the advantage of
mem neiore me fopie, ior most!
houses never stop advertising for
any kind of weather or for Jul!
