SHORTEST GROWING YEAR ON RECORD
Naughty Eight a Freak Year T. H. Lafollett
Gives Some of His Experience in
Farming in Crook County.
Frost of intensity sufficient to
kill vegetables and freeze alfalfa
manifested itself in central Oregon
this year as late as June and as
early as September, thus surpass
ing for shortness of the summer
season any previous year in the
annals of Crook county. West ef
the Deschutes river there was frost
every month during the past sum
mer, even in July and August,
though the killing frosts were con
fined to May and June and Sep
tember and October. In contrast
with this deficiency was the last
weekin July, when -the fJ. S.
official thermometer in Prineville
registered, according to the records
kept by C. I. Winnek, 104 de
grees, the highest on record. Thus
in two extremes did the year 1908
break all known meteorological
records for interior Oregon.
Farmers all agree that not only
was this year exceptional in the
matter of frost and high tempera
tures, with consequent shortness of
growing season and torrid dryness
in mid-summer, but that never
before has the weather been so in
imical to agricultural interests as
in 1908. In speaking along these
lines this week, T. H. Lafollette of
this city, who settled in Crook
county in 1871, said:
"Not in my experience in Crook
county have I noted such a short
season or one with so much frost
as this year. - People are prone to
eay these things, but I know
whereof I speak when I say there
was later frost in the spring and
earlier frost in the fall this year
than ever before.
"In 1879 I homesteaded a place
at Powell Buttes (fourteen miles
southeast of Prineville) and at
once started in truck farming. For
years, until 1S96 when I sold the
place, I raised successfully cucum
bers, squashes, watermelon?, to
matoes, onions, radishes, potatoes,
etc. In only one year of the 17
did I have any serious trouble,
when a killing frost descended one
night in June and ruined my to
matoes, squashes and melons. In
all other years I got full crops
without difficulty and twice a week
marketed them in Prineville. At
my present place up the Ochoco I
do not raise these things, confining
myself to hay, principally alfalfa,
but vegetables can be raised almost
anywhere in the county.
"The day after my crops were
knocked out that June I felt de
spondent, but quickly got busy and
replanted them, late as it was.
Had it been this year none of them
would have matured, with frost in
September, but that year the frost
came late in October and I raised
as good a crop as during any other
year.
"I have successfully raised al
most everything which can be
raised on my Powell Buttes place,
and the same can be done by any
one anywhere in interior Oregon.
Corn will grow if sown in April; so
will tomatoes and small fruits.
Potatoes and all root crops should
be set out in April, but tomatoes
and more tender things ought to
be planted late in May, in some

The above interview with Mr.
Lafollett is interesting at this stage
in the development of what is prac
tically a new country, as showing
its agricultural possibilities, im
munity from damaging frost 16
years out of 17, and what was ac
complished as early as the year
1879.
