MORNING ENTERPRISE, SATURDAY, APRIL 19 1913
FARMING ADVICE
FREE FOR ASK
- Along with his general publicity
work, by which the progress of Ore
gon City and vicinity is made known
to the rest of the world, O. E. Frey
tag, manager of the publicity bureau
of the Commercial club, is doing much
to assist agriculturists of the commun
ity by giving free advice upon the
scientific handling of crops and plant
diseases. Hardly a day passes but
that Mr. Freytag Is called upon by
some farmer ' to solve some knotty
problem of agriculture; and most of
those who avail themselves of the ad
vice willingly given, say that the
publicity manager knows his business.
Recently a number of farmers and
ranchers have called upon the local
man and asked his advice in regard
to a potato fungus that seemed to be
effecting some of the local tubers. To
all who have called Mr. Freytag has
given a formula for a wash that will
rib the tubers of this trouble, and
those who have followed his advice
are already reporting good results.
"I have managed a farm myself,"
said Mr. Freytag, in talking of this
branch of his work, "and so' I am
quite familiar with the problems that
confront many of the local agricultur
ists. I am glad to be of whatever as
sistance to them that I can, for I real
ize that while giving farm advice is
- not exactly publicity work, yet it is a
great help to the work this bureau is
trying to do. The more assistance I
. can give the farmers towards raising
better crops, the better will be the
county yield, and so the finer will be
the reports that we send out of our
progress here. Thus, it is that I am
always glad to do whatever lies in
my power for the assistance of those
who. ask for advice."
FISHERMEN WEEP; '
CREEKS ALL MUDDY
Local fishermen are really and truly
peeved t the weather. Rain is sup
posed to assist in making good fish
ing atleast it used to be said that
fish always bit better on a raiy day.
But there are exceptions to every rule,
and the present weather is one of the
exceptions. According to anglers who
are after trout and other things beside
the fish that swim in the Willamette,
the rain of Friday has put sport "on
the blink'' for a day or two.
"It is this way," said one of the
local enthusiasts, who delights to
tramp in the frigid water of the small
streams back in the hills. "The rain,
coming when the ground is all soften
ed up by the usual winter weather,
has carried a lot of surface mud and
silt into the streams, and the result
i9 that the water is so murky that
the fish can't see flies or bait. Maybe
they can smell it, but the fish I have
been after haven't got very good
smeller3, and I can't catch a thing. I
went out this morning and tried, but
I didn't have any luck. In fact when
I looked at the muddy water I knew
I wouldn't have any. luck, and my
hunch was right."
The weather forecaster doesn't
give the fishermen much hope, either.
He has studied the stars, consulted
his toads in the big glass bottle,
squinted at the barometer, and held
his finger, wet, up in foe wind, and
has come to the conclusion that there
is going to be some more rain. There
fore, fishing probably won't be parti
cularly good fishing until it quits
raining.
T
There wil be a rehearsal of the Mjn
strel show, which is to be given by
the members of the Commercial club,
Saturday evening in the Commercial
club parlors. There has been plenty
of good talent at the past rehearsals,
but there is still room for more.
M. D. Latourette said Friday that
every member of the club who had
any talent should turn out and help
make the event a success, as they are
all needed.
The proceeds from the first night
will be given to the publicity depart
ment of the club," to be used in adver
tising. The above is a .picture of Prof. F.
E. Billington, of Eugene, wh0 will be
one of the principle speakers at the
Oregon State Sunday School Conven
tion, which will be held in this city,
April 24, 25 and 26. This convention
will be attended by delegates from
practically every Sunday school In the
state and preparations are being made
to entertain 500. A host of first class
speakers have been engaged to deliver
the lectures during the session. Ev
ery person who is at all able, should
arrange to hear some of these lec
tures as they will be highly Instruc
tive. BRUSSELS The Belgian Chamber
of Deputies has adjourned to give Its
attentioon to the general strike, and
to try and find means of adverting
great hardship that is sure to follow.

its and since then It has caused much
trouble. One farmer's cattle came

the farmer $7.50 to get them out
Nearly all of the citizens of Sandy
thinK it is very wrong that such an
ordinance was ever passed as there
is nothing in the town that stock can
hurt as everybody has good fencing.
Many a farmer around Sandy makes
his living by stock raising, selling
cream, butter, etc., and as s0 much of
the county is wild and hardly any one
has pastures it seems very wrong that
the cattle cannot run out and get their
living, but they can't for fear they
wui be put m the pound in the city
of Sandy. It is a great hardship on
the farmers.-

of the two rooms and quantities of
plants were brought that day, enough

Fall sown grain along the way is
far advanced, and bids fair to make
a bumper crop, but a small amount of
spring grain has been sown, owing
to the continued rains. Hence, much
land will be summer fallowed that
otherwise would have been seeded had
the weather permitted.

MACKSBURG.
That incomparable majician, the
sunshine, following in the wake of the
heavy rains, has in the. past week,
wrought as great a miracle as ' ever
happened in ancient or modern times.
Fruit trees that a week ago were ap
parently in their Winter garb are now
laden with lovely blossoms. If no
blight from frost or other enemy at
tacks them, we may expect a fruit
harvest of unusual abundance. The
orchards have been thoroughly spray
ed and every precaution has been tak
en to prevent injury to the crop. The
grain tco, is growing perceptibly.
These wide stretches of bright em
erald seem to betoken the wealth of
nutrition and a comfort that lies hid
den within, and when one reflects that
many of these fields, smiling so bright
ly in the sunshine now, were a year
ago frowning wastes of jungle or of
blackened stumps, the rapidity with
which our state is developing, comes
forcibly into the mind.
Cheering reports concerning the
railroad are constantly reaching us,
telling that not alone in things agri

but that the tedious journey through

whose visit to our place has instead
of bringing gladness to us, taken a
bright young life from our midst.
Mfiss Mary Stier, whose illness was
mentioned in last week's issue of the
Enterprise, died last Tuesday morn
ing in the twentieth year of her age.
Miss Stier had, in her school days,
been a pupil In the Eby District and

teachers alike. Her early death has
cast a gloom over the entire neighbor
