WHAT WILLIAMS THINKS
OF CENTRAL OREGON
The growing of field and garden
seeds for market is becoming one of
the most important industries in Cen
tral Oregon, says W. W. Williams, of
Oregon City, who is at the New
Richmond hotel. The rainless grow
ing, ripening and harvesting seasons
make bright, perfectly formed seed,
and permit harvesting and curing
without bleaching or other damage
from the elements, he says. Cold
nights and the northern latitude con
tribute to the strong vitality and
high percentage . of germination,
which with other favorable climatic
conditions prevent weevil and blight.
"Dealers recognize the high qual
ity of Oregon seed and pay high
prices for it," he said recently. The
quantity produced often, and in old
er varieties invariably is, much
greater than in older ' and eastern
sections, where the seeds have been
grown heretofore. "Oregon has sold
more than $1,000,000 worth of clovor
seed in one season. Seeds for alfalfa,
clover, vetch and peas, both field and
garden, ' beans, onions and squash
are among those which afford us the
greatest profit."
The demand for alfalfa seed is
constantly growing on account of its
extensive and increasing use as a
cover crop" and field rejuvenator
throughout the eastern and central
states, was his statement. These
seeds will yield prpfits varying from
$50 to $100 or more an acre, in ad
dition to the crop of hay, in the case
of . forage crops, and the benefit to
land on which they are grown, in
most cases increases Its power of
production from 25 per cent to 50 per
cent.
"The irrigated sections of Oregon
are particularly adapted for all these
seeds. As much as fifty to sixty
bushels of peas are' grown for one
boshel planted. Portions of the Wil
lamette and other western Oregon
valleys, where there is the least sum
mer and fall rain, are also well
adapted fonsome of these seeds. A
Chicago firm purchased over 100
cars of clover seed one year recently
at McMinnville." Post Intelligencer,
Seattle.

DEFEAT OF GERMANS IS
CERTAIN, SAYS GRIFFIN
- m
Corporal C. J.' Grfliln, who has a
sister, Miss Maude Griffin, living at
Oregon City, is in France with the
90th Aero Squadron. Parts of a let
ter which he recently wrote home
are given here:
"Time is not such an important
factor now. . France is not by any
means in the same position as when
the United States cast her fortune
in' favor of the allies. .
"Ambition is being restored in the
hearts of the peasantry. They till
the soil with a -vigor from daylight
until dark and, journeying home
ward to their little village, greet you
with a smile of open-heartedness,
giving expression to their admiration
and hearty thankfulness of the Amer
ican people, with a quaint nod and
pleasant 'bon soir.'
"Wheat is the one grain grown in
this section of. France, and from a
high point in. an airplane the fields
below have the appearance of a large
patch quilt. Some of the grain is
ready for harvest, while much more
is ripening under sun and rain, great
ly needed, and France will gather it
in as never in the last four years.
"Men who have not seen home for
over a year will be sent to reap,
stack and stow the grain, even on
their.old field and in their own barns.
To 'these meh the work at home will
be a glorious vacation, visiting with
their families, loved ones, and all. '
"As I said before, time is not so
important now. Germany is held,
her leaders are beaten, and France is
saved. The French people realize
the victory, and who can say but
what their hearts are turning to
vengeance for satisfaction ? These
soldiers of the U-,- S. A. will gather
on the frontiers with equipment and
modern machinery until their num
bers are augmented by the displaced
French soldiers, and when th"e mo
ment arrives this army of new meth
8ds and new people will strike and
fight as few armies before it.
"There will not be the petty squab
ble over a little patch of territory
here and another there it ' will be
one mighty struggle along the whole
line, men fighting for liberty and
democracy, perhaps as the ' French
fought at Verdun, but with .more
faith as to the outcome." Morning
Oregonian.
Coughed So He Couldn't Sleep
Bronchial coughs, tickling in throat
and asthmatic spasms break one's
rest and weaken one so that the sys
tem is run down and serious sickness
may result. Enos . Halbert, .Paoli,
Ind., writes: "I had a severe cold this
fall and coughed continually at night;
could hardly sleep.-. The first bottle
of Foley's Honey and Tar relieved
me, entirely curing my cough." It
covers irritated membranes with a
healing and soothing coating, loosens
phlegm, and clears air passages.
Jones, Drug Co. '
ARE AIDING STOCKMEN
IN DROUGHT DISTRICTS
To assist cattle raisers in the
southwest, where drought has caus
ed a great scarcity of feed, from
suffering financial loss and to pre
vent hundreds of thousands of beef
breeding cattle from being slaughter
ed and removed from the country's
sources of meat, field agents of the
United States department of agricul
ture in co-operation with local and
state authorities, especially the Tex
as cattle-raisers' associations, are
transferring cattle to the' southeast
and corn belt states,, where feed is
plentiful. Up to the middle of Sep
tember 79 carloads .of cattle had been
shipped to the southeast. Arrange
ments have been made so that cat
tle may be shipped from the drought
stricken area at a reduction of 25
per cent from the regular freight
rate. For the information and con
venience of those wishing to buy
cattle the department representa
tives are issuing a weekly market
report showing the receipts, age,
weight, condition, and price,1 also
