It was not as well attended as it should have been. There are several water supplies and routes under consid eration and in a short time we hope water will be piped all along the Heights. It will en hance the value of property and hasten development. In the next fifteen years, when Port land has a million inhabitants, all the heights along this part of the Columbia will be occupied by the villas of merchant princes and millionaires, provided we continue to grow such citizens, No more beautiful and inspiring scenery is to be found in the world than that viewed from Underwood Heights. Out in front of us stretches Hood River, the peaceful valley whose .name has gone arornd the world; to the right and the left is the mighty gorge of the Columbia, grander than the Hudson, as the Hudson is grander than the Rhine; and the vast snow fields of Adams and Hood Hung into the upper air by the hand of the Omnipitent -an extravaganza of scenery, fit frame work for the population soon to fill these slopes and valleys. We are making history here evety day, as back in Boston they try to write it. The Northwestern Electric Power Company has had a crew of surveyors at work passing over the Heights locating poles and buying right-of-way for their big wires sxn to carry power from the White Salmon to Portland and way points. It is also in the Iproject to supply the Heights with electric lights. which will be an addition to our numerous assets. Besides fruit, there will be a larger crop of potatoes with us than last year, but we need or ganization and better methods of marketing the crop if we are to get real values. When it costs as much to market a product as the producer receives, something is wrong, radically wrong. In scientific methods of marketing. as well as general farm practice, we are fifty years behind Eu rope, an ill Mr. Grubb. the potato expert of Colorado, says our gov ernment agricultural experiment stations are beginning their work of "discovery" where farmers of Europe left off fifty years ago. 11.

I'.'df SHOULD GIVE IT A TRIAL. lu view of the quite general failure ot clover In many of the northern states during the past two years, and this the result of the unusually dry summers that have prevailed, there would '.eein to be good grounds this year for giving alfalfa test The rea son for doing this does not need to be explained to those who have tried the legume. For the benefit of those who have not and need some further argu ment we give the brief facts In connec tion with small patch wltn which the writer is acquainted which was start ed three years ago by north Iowa farmer who lives in a section where It has seemed to be accepted that alfalfa will not flourish. Last season. In spite of an exceptionally dry summer, this patch yielded at the rate of four tons per acre when nearby clover meadows were not producing half a ton. The first cutting this season was made some ten days ago, and the measured yield was three and two-thirds tons per acre of the Quest and most nutritious hay that can be grown. If conditions for the remainder of the season are at all fa vorable there should be two more tut tings that will average a ton and a half each. This Is a modest estimate, and there will likely be more than this But on this estimate it makes an acre yield for the year of alx and two thirds tons, worth, at $12 per ton, (80 Some will say, "This sounds good, but how can a fellow get started V Get ting a start In alfalfa is not a difficult undertaking if conditions are right, but it is well to start with a small patch, aay five acres. First the piece of land selected should be well drained, have a porous rather than an impervious sub soil and be sweet rather than sour that Is, in need of lime. For the latitude of the northern states a piece from which early oats or rye has just been taken will do well This should be plowed to a good depth as soon as possible, top dressed with eight or nine tons of barnyard manure If fine; otherwise it should be spread before the plowing is done. The field thus prepared should be disked thoroughly, and at Intervals of about ten days it should be disked lightly until the first or second week in August This will put the soil in fine tilth and kill no end of weeds, which are one of the chief obstacles to growing alfalfa in humid sections. If It can be bad. soil from an alfalfa field or a smll quantity of manure from stock that has been fed alfalfa should be applied before the last disk lug for the purpose of inoculating the soil. In case neither of these sources of nitrogen fixing bacteria is availa ble soli from the roadside where sweet clover is growing will answer the pur pose. About Aug. 15 the tract should be seeded. If the weather Is very dry It Is best to use a disk drill, sowing the seed to the depth of about two Inches. If the soil contains abundant moisture the seed may be broadcasted In either case it Is well to go over the field both ways to Insure an even stand. From eighteen to twenty pounds should be used per acre. If conditions are at all favornhle the legume will make a nice growth by late fall, and this should tap allowed to remain on the ground to serve as a catch for the snow WEEDS AND CULTIVATION The stirring of the soil for the pur prise of conserving moisture ratbet tlun the killing of weeds should te the primary object In cultivation. For this reason the soil In which crops are growing should be stirred frequently, whether there are any weeds lu sight or not. This point Is nicely brought out in a cross fence colloquy between two corn belt farmers during the dry spell last August. The one who had given his ground none too thorough prepara tlon in the spring and who somehow bud the idea that the sole purpose ot cultivation was killing weeds was sort o' codding bis neighbor for cultivating his corn so much when there were no weeds In sight, bis contention being that the more the soil was stirred the more the moisture would escape. His neighbor, at the moment turning the row with bis riding corn plow, tried to explain to him the real reason for cul tivating. but it made no impression At busking time the one who kept up the cultivation of his field got forty-five bushels per acre, while the fellow who tilled to kill weeds got only twenty five bushels. Aud the only difference be tween the two fields was the separat lng barbed wire feuce DOPE FOR GRASSHOPPERS. While fall plowing of the grouud Is one of the best methods for keeping grasshoppers In check. In that it buries a greut muny of their egg pod. or breaks them open and thus exposes them to the moisture and attacks of birds and mice, very effective work can be done by means of poison. While poisoned bran Is used. It should not be used in places to which poultry or stock have access or where quail or other wild fowl range. A safer poison Is the cblddle mixture, which Is made of fresh horse dropplugs. salt and parts green. Five pallfuls of the droppings will make approximately 100 pounds, and to this should be added a pai'.ful of water, in which two pounds of salt and a pound of purls green have been added, and the whole mas stirred thoroughly. This dope should te scat tered about the field In small portions, the amount used depending upon the number of hoppers. It hns been found that a small pile of the bait will draw the hopicrs a distance of forty feet, the salt In the mixture being that which attracts them YOU CAN SAVE MONEY By Buying Your Groceries from HUGGINS 15 lbs. best Fruit Suprar for $1.00 2 cans Jersey Queen Milk for l.rc 8 cans Carnation and Libby Milk for 25c Diamon, Crown and High Flight Flour, sack ..$1.45 Per Barrel $5.00 Lowest Prices Superior Quality-Prices cn Fruit Jars Are: Mason Pts. 55c, Qts.

For nny readers who may not be a ware of the fact It "111 not be out of place to state that in most instances these birds are to be protected for a period of years and that It is a violation of law to shoot them at any time during the year.
