Exports Increase In
Farm Implements
Exports of agricultural implements"
and tractors for the first month of
1922 show an increase of $314,208 over
the month of December, 1921, says a
special report by the Agricultural Im
plement Division of the Department of
Commerce. Compared with January,
1921, however, there is a very decided
drop from $7,320,277 in that month
to $1,011,435 in January of this year.
There is reason for encouragement in
the fact that the statistics for Janu
ary indicate an upward trend of. ex
ports. The exports for January, 1921,
were not equaled during any other
month of that year and steadily de
clined in succeeding months, reach
ing their lowest mark in the last
month of the year, when the exports
of implements were valued at $697,227.
The chief decrease in January, 1922
as compared with January, 1921 was
in plows and cultivators, and mowers
and reapers.

John S. Osborne, of Estacada is
credited with attracting considerable
attention in his district with a new
mehod of raining loganberries. This
innovatior is known as the Osborne
system, deriving its name' from the
originator.
The advantages claimed are- ease
of training up and pruning out old
canes, saving in wire and shading of'
berries so that there is little loss from
heat or drying up. About the same
Uranus sunaue is ciaiinea ior tills
practice due to the growtn of side la
terals. Another industry at Estacada in
which Mr. Osborne is interested is a
colony devoted to the raising of gin
seng. Acocrding to Webster, this
mystical Chinese product is an arom
atic root chiefly valued for its medi
cinal properties and almost the total
crop raised in the United States is ex
ported to China. Roots are grown
under the shade of a lath house and
are said to sell for from $5 to $9 a
pound.
Associated with Osborne in the gin
seng venture are Henry Trapp, W. R.
Woodworth, T. J. Reygon. Five years
i are reported as the normal period
elapsing before the crop is ready for
harvest and rumor has it that the
ginseng growers will soon rank
among the wealthiest of our citizens.
