MUST GO BELOW HARDPAN. )rcnards ie Early if They Have to Depend, on Surface. ' Jfcfld Gppr member of the Oreeon board 3f acrlcuiture ave q cove Ledger the jG-OTing concerning his lnvestigaUons of rj"at! conditions in the valleys of the Snake pvcr and .ts tributaries: "Agreeable with numerous requests to sit the Eastern Oregon fruit section, we lado ihe journey and extended our Inves tigations into the Snake river region, both Oregon and Idaho sides. The primary reason for going as far as the Boise val ley was to look into the economic aspect pi horticulture under entirely different 311 and climatic conditions from those revailing in the Willamette valley. 'The Snake river region, extending from tunt-ngton to Mountain Home, a distance Wt some 150 miles, belongs to the arid region, with a light soil, and heretofore pas corsldered worthless, but under irri gation it has blossomed out most wonder fully. Some 17,000 acres hav been planted in fruit of various kinds, and up to now he trees have made good growth and pro duced good crops. We have found that in this entire re- jlon the top soil is underlaid with a strata l hardpan, Impervious to water or roots. Phis top soil varies from six Inches to Ightfeet in depth, and the thi kncss of ih a ttrata or hardpan is from three to fifteen iches. Underneath this hardpan is a ravelly loam, rich in plant food, but lot available at present on account of hardpan. Had the orchardists of reg'on examined into the soil condi- ians and adopted the advice given by this joard for years past, by dynamiting the soil, thus shattering the hardpan and al lowing roots and water to go down, they rouid not be confronted with the problem ley .rc The trees planted on this llcht. hallow top soil have about used up all ie avauame plant food, and in conse- luenee stopped growing, and soon will se to bear fruit, the roots have snread sut on the surface, and are therefore liable injury from freezing, and the trees lecome loose and easily thrown over by lie strong winds. The only remedv now a to bore a hole into the hardpan, be tween the rows of trees, and dynamite jjit, which will mater ally assist the feed ing roots to go down, and prolong the ue or tnese trees. However, all this ioald have been done prior to plantinir. "We are also of the opinion that If the u is properly dynamited irrigation will more perfect, as the water will so lown easier and in consequence will re julre less Irrigation and more culUva- ion, and moisture will be brought ud Jrom below by capillary attraction. That lis theory is correct Is evidenced by ie fact that wherever it has been tried It has proven successful. J. S. D. Mann- Ille. of Boise, dynamited his soil with Sood effect. David Dunbar, near Tale, leur county, planted an orchard, that d not do well: the trees crew slowiv md were continually blown over. After live years experimenting, his hired man. pio naa reaa our reports, suggested dy namiting, -which they did, and nlanted an urchard alongside the old ones; It Is rong and healthy, and bears abundant ops of fruit. In view of such conclusive aject Jefsons. It seems to us that Intel ligent, progressive horticulturists would t be sow in adopting the method sug gested. 'One of the most remarkable observa- pitens is that the trees In the Grand Ronde, Powder river, Burnt river, Malheur river. BiS'eiser, Payette, Boise and Snake river valleys go into bearing at such an early age and attain such large size.

"WASTS DTSAlfH HUSBAND'S ESTATE. Claim Piled by Mrs. Trembatb. in Oresron City Probate Court. OREGON CITY, Dec 3L The Tvifo of John Trembath, Jr., of Portland, has filed a claim in the probate court to recover $800 in cash and an allowance of ?50 per month from her husband's estate. Trem bath was sent to the state Insane asylum a few weeks ago, and his brother, H. "W. Trembath, was appointed guardian of the estate. The assets of the estate consist principally of $1500 in cash, and Mrs. Trembath claims $800 of this amount as her individual property.

The list includes only the buildings in the construction of which the public streets were used for building purposes. Where the streets were not used, no permit was necessary, and there is no record of these improvements in the office of the city engineer. An ordinance was recently passed by the com mon council making it obligatory to take out building per mits in every instance, which will, in the future, make the rec ord much more complete. A great many dwellings, especially in the suburban portion of the city, were erected during the year for which no permits were taken out 9e90009eO9e99 99O9099990996 that the woman's claim will be strongly contested when the matter shall come up for a hearing.

The disease presents Itself ih various types, and usually develops Into an aggravated, distressing condition, characterized by more or less of the following symptoms: Heavy feeling about the stomach attended with pain, uneasiness and swelling at times; there Is belching of wind, the food ferments, sours, remains on the stomach and passes off in a partially -digested state. The bowels are costive or there may be diarrhoea; the liver is generally torpid; there Is great nervousness, palpitation of the heart, headache, dry or wrinkled skin, debility, lassitude and want of energy, var iable appetite, tongue coated, disagreeable taste in the mouth, especially in the morning: fretfulness, lowness of spirits. Imaginary fears, physical and mental suffering. The Dr. Sanden Electric Belt Acts speedily and effectually in these cases, and it may be amply -verified by the, experiences of the afflicted themselves, that no other treatment has a like effect.

There is so much of it in the pasture along the creeks that it is practically Impossible to exterminate it owing to the great expense required. Washington Notes.
