UNDERWOODHEIGHTS
The Underwood Heights Water
Company held a meeting Satur
day, August 17th. 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.

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
