THIRD and OAK STREETS
TALKS WITH FARMERS.
Results of Practical Experiments
On Clackamas County Soil by
Actual Farmers.
Farmers from the various precincts
generally agree that fall-sown wheat
gives promise of an excellent yield
that is, where it was sown on high
ground. Many of them say that cool,
rainy weather, with occasional days of
snnshine, not too hot, are peculiarly fa
vorable to a good yield of wheat. Oats,
planted under favorable conditions, also
give promise of a good yield. Indica
tions are that late sown grain will suffer'.
It is to be regretted that there will be a
a serious shortage in the fruit crop.
J. J. Gard, a well known Clarkes far
mer, believes in mixed products for the
Clackamas county farmer. He says we
cannot compete with the prairie-sections
in raising wheat, neither can hogs
be raised and fattened as cheaply as in
a corn-growing country. Hogs, how
ever, are a necessary adjunct to econ
omy in the matter of producing mixed
products on a farm. They can run on
pasture land, eat slops and milk and de
caying iruit that would otherwise
be
lost. Mr. Gard thinks that a cross hn
tween the Poland-China and the com
mon hog is the best for farm use. Thor
oughbreds are too delicate and cost too
much. He also considers a mixture
with the Chester-White with common
hogs very good for farm use. He con
siders that, dark-colored pigs are more
desirable, as white hogs catch vermin
more readily. Mr. Gard considers that
chickens are profitable to keep on the
farm as they pay a profit of 50 per cent
on the investment. He prefers Plym
outh Rocks for marketing purposes, but
believes that the white Leghorns are
the best for laying.
George H. Mooney. of Milwaukle.
on Monday brought in a bunch of the
common variety of rye raised on his
place on Kellogg creek, that measured
eight feet and 10 inches with well de
veloped heads, Mr. Mooney is engaged
in mixed (arming and fruit raisimr.
and lays that in his neighborhood ap
ples will be a fair crop, while Bartlett
pears and cherries will only be a half
crop. Prunes will be almost a failure.
George Schmidt, a Shuebel farmor,
writes to the Northwest Pacific Farmer
on hogs. He says that it does not pay to
winter hogs in the woods, but should be
pastured winter and summer on green
grass and ciover. He bilieves in hav
ing the litters in March or April so that
the pigs can run on pasture during the
summer.
County Commissioner R. Scott.
of
Milwaukio, has an excellent articlo
the last issue of the North Pacific Rural
Spirit on pure milk. He states that
Portland is a healthy city, and Deonle
could always get pure milk by paying
for it. In regard to excroinentious mat
ter, he says that if it is not kent out of
milk by cleaning the udder before milk
ing, there is no machine that will tuke
it out except a cream separator. In
fact, he makes the plea that Portland
does get free milk.
The Parkplace-Gladstone school closod
