It is published by the author

Paul, Minnesota.
Prof. Shaw's book represents
50 years of agricultural work,
and experiance in the Northwest.
It is one of the most valuable
books ever published and every
farmer and business man should
have a copy. Commercial clubs
should interest the leading farm
ers of their community in this
book.
"Dryland" is defined as any j
section where the rainfall is less
than 25 inches per annnm.
Prof Shaw's book will be read
with more interest than the most
thrilling of the "six best seller"
by tne farmers in the "dry land"
areas and by thousands of East
erners wbo are planning to come
to the Northwest. It is the op
inion of Prof. Shaw and other
'agricultural experts thot a modi
fied sort of '"dry farming" will
eveutnally be used on all lands
not artificially watered or irrigat
ed where the rainfall is less than
30 inches per annum. Even
where there is a heavy rainfall
there occur.dry periods in the late
summer: when if the soil mois
ture was conserved the failure
of crops would be almost un
known. In tne Northwest the
"dry land" area extends from .a
point west of the Missouri River
to the Cascade Mountains, wbicb

i The "dry land" area extends
from the heart to Canada south
; to the interior of Mexico and from
the Cascade and Sierra Nevada
! Mountains east almost to the
! Mississippi River.
Prof. Shaw' book is the first
comprehensive books ever writ
ten on "dry larmmg. and is
written in a plain and simple
manner, readily understood by
any one. The Publication of this
; work will be of special interest
to farmers along the line of the
j Great Northern Railway who for
years have read Prof. Show's
'articles on "dry farming," which
have been published in the local
newsprpers. This work, carried
on by the Great Northern Rail
way with the co operotion of
nwespapers, has resulted in mil
lions of dollars of agricultural
wealth being added to the Great,
Northwest.
The Journal Contest
There has been a slight shifting
of positions in the contest this

Mrs. Cyrus has closed the gap be
tween herself and the leaders so
that all are now on the home-
stretch without much advantage
over the other. Three weeks will
decide tbe race.
The votes are as follows:

Terrebonne's First
Cattle Shipment
Although the stockyards art
not completed. Ten ebonne made
her first shipment of otock Mon
day.
Messrs, Slayton. Howard, Har
ris, and Montgomery, who have
been holding off shipment until
the stockyards here were in shape
to handle the business, started
their cattle from their various
ranches Sunday, reaching here
that night and, as there was no
feed yards, they found places
with the farmers near the town
to hold their cattle over night
and feed, and bright and early
Monday morning started them in
for the loading pens. From tbe
time of loading of the first car
until all were loaded the entire
time consumed was only fifty
minutes.
The stockmen were highly
pleased with the expeditious
manner of disposing of the load
ing and as a natural result, tbe
citizens of Terrebonne are elated.
A special train was provided
to take the cattle to Portlond. get
ting out of the Terrebonne yards
at 8:45 a. m. and arriving at Port
land at 2:00 a. id.., Tuesday,
which is pretty good record in
tbe matter of stock shipment,
and we understand the best ever
made out of Central Oregon.
