Oregon's Products
Wonderful Showing
Portland Or., Aug. 27. (Special).
In 1911 the wool crop of Oregon
weiRhed 16,000,000 pounds, was
shorn from 2.000.000 shwp and was
sold for about 13,000,000.
During the same period the state
produced 600,000 pounds of mo
hair, worth $240,000. Goats have
been found nearly as valuable for
clearing brush land as for producing
mohair.
In 1911 Oregon produced 72,000
bales of hops, worth $4,000,000.
The production was only half that
of a few years ago, but prices have
been extremely good.
In 1911 Oregon produced poultry
to the extent of 9.000,000 birds,
having a value of f7.0iX1.000.
During the same year the state
produced 32,000,000 dozen eggs.
valued at f 9,600.000. The poultry
business is still an infant industry.
In 1911 the Oregon potato crop
was the greatest ever known, very
nearly approaching the 6,000,000
bushel mark, with a value to the
growers of over f 4,000,000.
In the same year onions to the
amount of about 175,000 bushels
were grown, worth f 212,000. The
bulk of this crop is produced with
in a small area, being grown almost
exclusively on what is known as
"beaver dam" land.
In 1911 Oregon produced f 3,400,"
000 worth of butter, but in order
to supply the demand, at least three
times this amount was shipped into
state from other sections.
In 1911 Oregon produced 17,000,
000 gallons of milk and cream,
valued at t4,000,000. The product
is said to be the cleanest and - most
wholesome of that of any state.
In 19U Oregon produced 5,000,
000 pounds of cheese, valued at
$758,000. The quality is of the
very best. Los Angeles uses more
Oregon cheese in feeding its tour
ists than of all other kinds combined.
The standing timber of Oregon
is estimated at 454,000,000,000 feet,
worth on the stump f 680,000,000,
and when manufactured into lum
ber it will be worth t6,500,000,000.
The timber covers approximately
25,000,000 acres. About one-half
is in national forests and the bal
ance under private ownership.
In 1911 4,123,000 head of live
stock was raised in Oregon, valued
at f87,854,000. Among meat ani
mals the production of hogs has in"
creased faster than cattle or sheep,
due for the most part to the ex
tremely high prices that have pre
vailed for the past two years in the
Coast markets.
The fruit crop in Oregon in 1911
..was worth over $4,000,000 in cash.
The greater part of this sum was
received for apples, this staple com
manding the highest prices both at
home and abroad. Next to apples
peaches are the most important
fruit in the state, last year's crop
selling at $523,000. Pears were sold
to the value of $300,000, being an
average of nearly $1.50 a box.
Cherries, prunes, grapes, strawber
ries, loganberries, etc., helped to
swell the sum paid to farmers and
orchardists during the year. About
300,000 pounds of English walnuts !
were produced, valued at t45,000.
Hints for Farmers
Continued from first page.
enstien. Other hardy varieties are
Wealthy, Mcintosh Red and possibly
Rome Beauty. This gives a succes
sion of fruit trees from the earliest
till winter. The crabs do well, also.
The Bartlett and Flemish Beauty
have proven desirable varieties of
pears. Of the peaches the early va
rieties, as Crawford and Triumph,
have given best results. The sour
pie cherry is hardy and well adapt
ed to our conditions. The early
Richmond' and large Montgomery
are desirable varieties.
Of the bush fruits Turner and
Red Antwerp are two good varieties
of red raspberry. Cumberland is a
blackberry that will be found suit
able to grow. Of the , currants
both red and white do well. Red
Cherry and Red Dutch and White
Grape and White Dutch are all do-
ing splendidly in the county. Of
the gooseberries two varieties known
to do well here are Downing and
Oregon Champion.

"Not Guilty."
"Not guilty" was the verdict
of the jury in the case of the State
vs. Jack Brogan and Ed McFad-
den, tried in justice court bere
Monday on charge of trespass pre
ferred by Patric Reilly. It appear
ed during the course of the trial
that Reilly' had fenced up the
county road and that the defend
ants bad thereupon cut the fence
and drove through the premises
claimed by Reilly. All the part
ies o( the suit live near Ash wood,
where the alleged offense was
committed. The case was con
ducted by Deputy District At
torney Wirtz and T. E. J. Duffy
and defended by M. E. Brink.
Powell Butte Wins
From Dry Creek
In one of the most interesting
ball games of the season the Powell-
Butte boys won last Sunday from Dry
Creek 10 to 5. Sammy Johnson, the
Butte pitcher, was given good sup
port, which with his speedy shoots
and splendid control kept hits scat
tered. Only in the third inning did
the visitors bunch bingles, which
together with errors by most every
one, gave the Creekers their only
tallies. The line-up was as follows :

75c for Wheat.
Seventy-five cents a bushel for an
entire crop which will amount to
possibly 5000 bushels of Turkey Red
wheat is the essence of the contract
signed last week by Chas. T. McCall
and A. H. Parkey of Madras and
the W. A. Gorbdon Co. of Portland.
As far as investigation is disclosed
this is the highest price paid for
wheat this season. The wheat cov
ered by the contract was raised" on
the McCall homestead on the Agency
Plains four miles north of Madras,
and is being threshed at present by
Parkey Bros., with their new com
bine harvester. Local handlers of
the grain say that this wheat is the
bej t that has been shown in Madras
this year. With ideal weather the
threshing crews over the northern
Crook county are busy this week,
ana no report has been received at
this office in any contradicting
prophesies of the largest yields ever
recorded in this section. Pioneer.
