PHASES OF INDUSTRIAL GROWTH IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST
8EST DAIRY STATE
LARGE TRACT FOR
VIEWS OF COUNTBY WHERE BISHOP SCOTT ACADEMY IS TO BE RE-ESTABLISHED, AND SAMPLE OF PRODUCT OF LAND
EPISCOPAL SCHOOL
Wisconsin Authority Concedes
Honor to Oregon.
Old Bishop Scott Academy to
Be Re-established at
North YamhilL
MILD CLIMATE GREAT AID

SITE OF 100 ACRES BOUGHT
Portion of Oak Hill Stock Farm
Will Be Set to Walnuts and
Proceeds Vtd for Edu
cational Institution.
Wlhat o ran re culture !a to Florida and
Southern California, apples to various dis
trict of Oregon, onions to the Beaverton
district ven wheat to the great Inland
Empire. walnut growing in Yamhill
County would seem to be a comins; in
dustry, destined to take rank with all of
these In few years.
One of the latest enterprises is that of
the board of trustees of the Episcopal
diocese of Oregon, In the purchase of 100
acres of land three miles from North
Yamhill, on which the old Bishop Sco;t
Academy will be re-established.
The intention Is to cultivate the land,
which is rart of the Oak Hill Stock Farm,
formerly oc.ned by Charles E. Iadd, and
when Hie finances of the hoard permits,
the Boys' School will be located in Yam
hill County.
It is the intention of the board to enter
somewhat extensively into the cultivation
of walnuts on part of the tract, and
when the grove comes Into bearing the
revenue is to be devoted to the purposes
of Improving the school, erecting addi
tional buildings and extending the scope
of the academy.
Plans for New Project.
In announcing these Intentions, the Sep
tember Issue of Trinity Chimes says:
Tlie new walnut grove of the school board
will re planted In young trees. As com
pared with fruit, the cost fr cultivation,
leathering and marketing; 1 much less. Not
being a perishable cr-p such a cherries,
peaches, pea is and apples, there is no
anxiety about loss In shipment and mar
keting. Very raanv of our best boys' schools are
situated may from the cities. because It
Is generntlv conceded that boys ran be
much better cured for In a rural district :
where there in less to distract and tempt. ,
Furthermore, th school can be managed
much mom economically In the country.
With Its own watr and lighting; system, us
wn fruit and vegetable gardens. Its own
milk and butter supply, not to mention that
It may raise Its own meats, and with abun
dance of cheap fuel, nr and oak. at one
third of the cost in the city, it is easy to
sea how desirable the new arrangement is
from a financial point of view.
It Is well known that the walnut crop
la very profitable, so It la purposed to plant
bout M more acres In walnuts to pro
ilds an endowment fund. Fifty acres added
to the walnut grove now owned by the
School Hoard will give a large in coma In
a few years.
The ow ners of the Ladd fa-m (except
the 100 acres and other property In the
vicinity, have contracted to plant and care
for the School Hoard property for a period
of five years. They retain possession of It
during this period under terms of a lease.
.After that the church can take over the
property, from whch it will derive a hand
some Income. An 8-year-old walnut grove
of that variety of trees now grown very
successfully on this ground, if properly
Cfexed for. should produce a net profit of
about :j0 an acre. The trees are not
bothered by pests, and are hardy, living for
hundreds of years. For many years tne
crop "keeps Increasing. A single tree haa
been known to produce t0 worth of nuts
m a season.
What Colonel Dosch Says.
Colonel Henry E. Dosch. in referring
to the walnut industry of Oregon, said
In an article published tn the Pacific
Homestead that his earnest advice Is to
plant a few walnut trees if It is not de
sired to plant a grove. "Tour children's
children will bless you and thank you
for your thoughtfulness.' he says. "I
know of no better business proposition In
agricultural or horticultural pursuits, and
once established, a well care1-for grove
1s the best heritage a parent can leave
liis family, as the trees become more and
snore valuable and productive with age."
Walnuts have proved a reliable and re
munerative crop In this state, and in Cali-
'fornla the trees have been cultivated for
many years. English walnuts thrive in
Yamhill County, and that district of the
state has become known both at home
;snd In the East as one of the best pro
ducers In the country. Every year brings
the Industry into mora prominence and
statistics prove that the demand for nuts
cannot be supplied for years1 to come,
making a good market right at home for
ail the rtuis that can be grown In this
part of the country, even If the acreage
Increases at a much greater .extent than
stow promises.
For a school to enter Into the cultiva
tion of a product for the purpose of rev
enue is a new scheme but those well in
formed on the subject say the Bishop
Scott trustees have made no mistake In
this Instance, and that In a few years'
time the school will be on a foundation
insuring an endowment ample to meet
its requirement.
An authority says that walnut trees
begin to bear at from eight to twelve
years of age and from that time on In
crease production at a remarkable rate.
They live for upward of 200 years and, re
quire little attention after reacihing ma
turity. WIIJ, ORGAXIZE FAIR BOARD

Expenses Incurred.
AIjBAXY. Or.. Of t. IS. (Special.) Frank
H. Porter, of Haisey. has returned from
a tour of th three largest fairs or tne
Pacific Northwest, with the remarkable
record of havlnp beaten all competitors
with his string of Red Polled cattle. He
took 1 cattle on the trip, but the number
did not live up to its accepted reputation,
for Mr. Porter won the bipgest money of
any exhibitor of this class of stock at
each of the three big fairs. He won $1025
In prize money, and. after deducting all
expenses of his trip, has a net protit of
almost J.00.

Seattle Fair in September, then at the
Oregon State Fair at Salem, and then at
the recent big livestock show tn Portland,
At Seattle his 13 cattle were tn competi
tion with 51 others of the same class: at
Salem there were 74 other entries of Red
Polled stock, and at Portland his little
string faced 68 competitors. At Portland
he had less than one-fifth of the cattle en

GROWS CLOVER FOR SEED
Yakima Valley Rancher See9 Profit
In Sew Industry.
NORTH TAKIMA. Wash.. Oct. 18. (Spe
cial.) A new industry for Yakima Valley
has been Introduced by M. Mason, a
rancher on the Indian reservation, who
has gone Into the raising of clover and
alfalfa seed as a business. He is now
harvesting clover seed from 40 acres ol
that crop, having for the purpose a clover
huller which he thinks Is the first ever
brought into the state. When the clover
Is finished, he expects to work upon an
alfalfa field of la acres, belonging to a
friend, which has formed excellent ap
pearing seed.
Since, from the red clover, which is his
crop, it is the second growth wnicty'ls
used for seed, and since the clover yields
about six bushels of seed to the acre and
sells for 14 cents a pound, there would
appear profit in the business, bearing in
mind that the first crop Is sold for hay.
The seed, shown to experts here, was
pronounced very good, a large proportion
black, the rest golden, with no foreign
seeds whatever.
MILK FACTORY FOR SCTO
Company Formed to Build and Op
erate Condensery.
SCIO. Or., Oct. IS. (Special.) Solo will
have a condensed milk factory. A com
pany which Is to be known as the Scio
Condensed Milk Company met at the City
Hall last night and effected an organiza
tion composed of 12 members, as follows:
A. EL Randall. A. G. Prill, O. B. Cyrus,
J. A. Bilyeu, EL C. Peery. A. T. Powell.
R. M. Cain. John Wesley. H. M. Myer.
Henry Miller. Charles Wesley aftM Lee
Bilyeu. The officers elected were: Presi
dent. B. C. Peery; secretary. A. G. Prill,
and treasurer. O. B. Cyrus. The capital
stock, which is fully paid, was placed at
15.XO. divided in shares of J1000 each.
The location of the plant is well adapt
ed to the purpose. The wa'er supply Is
excellent and the surrounding country is
admirably adapted to dairying and graz
-
ing purposes. Much enthusiasm prevails
among the ranchers and local dairymen
relative to the future outlook for this
section of the country. A move is al
ready started to better the breed of the
cows to be used to supply the new con
denser. The intention of the company Is
to begin with a small amount of milk and
Increase as rapidly as the market for the
goods will demand.
The contract for the machinery and the
Installation of the plant has been award
ed to C. E. Rogers, of Detroit. Mich., who
expects to have the material ready for
shipment in 60 days. It is hoped to have
the plant ready for receiving milk by
March 1, IMS.
LARGE CROPS FROM LANDS
FARMS XEAR MOXTESAXO ARE
. BRINGING HIGH PRICES.
Tract of 4 0 Acres Bought for $7 500
Year Ago Brings Offer of $ie,
S00, Which Is Refused.'
MOXTESAXO. Wash., Oct. IS. (Special.)
The price of farming lands in this vicin
ity is on the rise, an instance being
shown In the refusal of J. B. Haynes to
take J12.500 for a 40-acre farm which he
bought about a year ago for ST500. One
reason for this advance is said to be the
Intelligent forces that are being used to
make the land productive, and also that
the farming Is being done on a scientific
basis.
An instance is told of a man who had
livd on one place for 20 years and at the
end of that time had cleared but ten
acres. This place was recently sold and
the new owner declares that the land is
among the most productive in the county,
and that he will make a fortune from
the place in the next few years. Twenty
acres recently sold for $4500.
The land in this section Is especially
adapted to the production of potatoes.
J. B. Haynes exhibited 11 potatoes at the
Hoqulam fair this week which weighed 20
pounds. Henry Hllterbrand harvested 46
tons from six acres, while the Nouncier
brothers, who have a ranch near Sutsop,
harvested 400 sacks to the acre, the sacks
averaging 100 pounds each, and at the
present price of 1 cent a pound wuld
bring 1400 per acre.
The land of this section is not only
among the best for potatoes but is also
adapted to dairying and grain. The 40-acre
ranch of Mr. Haynes, mentioned above,
besides producing the large crop of pota
toes, has an Income of tlOO a month from
20 cows, pasture-fed; a large hay crop, a
considerable quantity of garden produce
and 350 bushels of No. 1 wheat. A rancher
having a small ranch near this city owns
one cow which Is 15-16ths Jersey, and
from this one cow. selling the milk to a
wholesale denier at 20 cents a gallon, sold
J40.25 worth of milk In three months, be
sides keeplng'enough for his own use for
both milk .and butter. The farmers all
find a ready market for all their milk at
the Montesano Creamery.
To Build Sample Good Road.
HOOD RIVER, Of'., Oct. 18. (Speeial.)
To build a sample section of good road
at Hood River, a subscription is being
taken and Is meeting with popular ap
proval. The road will be built from the
city out the west side of the valley fot
four miles, and it is expected to com
mence work on it shortly. The worst
piece of highway at Hood River has been
selected for the experiment, and its con
struction is expected to stimulate the
good roads movement here and serve as
a starter for other sections of the valley.

CRANBERRIES IN MARION
Farmers About Lake LaBish Grow
Them Successfully.
GERVAIS. Or.. Oct. IS. (Special.) It is
not generally known that cranbarries are
grown and ripened to the greatest per
fection on the borders of Lake LaBish,
near this place. Vor a number of years
Gervais merchants have depended upon
home-grown cranberries. Mr. Mcllwaiu
has successfully grown these luscious
berries for years. The berries are large
and . highly colored and rich in all that
makes cranberries valuable. Their cul
ture- is attended by no great amount of
work on the part of the grower and the
vines thrive easily and bear prollfically
each year and seemingly Improve with
each succeeding season.
Along Lake IaBlsh is a large acreage
of land suitable for the culture of crar
berries and there is abundant water for
flooding, which is one of the principal
features of cranberry growing.
VANCOUVER TO REACH OUT
Expansion Movement Set on Foot at
Meeting of Citizens.
VANCOUVER, Wash.. Oct. 18. (Spe
cial.) At a special meetlngr of the bus!
ness men of Vancouver at the Columbia
Club rooma recently, a movement was
inaugurated that has for Its purpose the
enlarging of the limits of the City of Van
couver. A committee on city extension
was appointed, con is ting- of Floyd Swan,
W. B. Du Bole, L. J. Breslln, E. E.
Beard and Pearl Elwell.
The suburbs to be made a part of the
city Include Fruit Valley as far north
as tfhe Rice road, Vancouver Heights
and that territory east of the Garrison
known as Irvlngton. This would double
the area of the city and increase the city's
population by 3500, giving Vancouver a
population of 10,000. A special election
will be held to give the citizens an op
portunity to vote upon the proposition.
KALAMA GETS NEW MILL

Work has been started for the erec
tion of a new shingle mill on the Schau
ble water-front south of town. The pro
moter is C. L. England, of Castle Rock,
who has successfully operated a shingle
mill there for the past few years.
The new mill will have a capacity of
175.000 shingles a day and will employ
from 25 to 30 men. The location of the
mill Is one to be desired, being on both
the Columbia River and Northern Pa
cific Railroad, thus affording an op
portunity for both water and rail trans
portation. The mill will be put in op
eration as soon as possible.

Sheepgrowers Pasturing on National
Forests Affected by Xew Ruling
of Forester Plnchot.
ORHGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
lngton, Oct. 18. Following a statement
made a year ago at the meeting of the
National Growers' Association In Salt
Lake, Gilford Plnchot, forester, and A.
F. Potter, In charge of grazing in Na
tional Forests have announced a reduc
tion of 10 to 15 per cent In rates for
sheep grazing on the National Forests to
take effect for the coming season.
Changes in market conditions which
have made the sheep business less
profitable this past year, especially the
greatly reduced prices offered for wool,
and the depreciation In value of mutton
are partly responsible for this reduction.
In 1907, when promises for a reduced
schedule were made, it was with the un
derstanding between stockmen and the
Forest Service that grazing rates would
not be changed for minor fluctuations
in the market which would naturally
occur from year to year, but would ap
ply only in the ase of radical or un
usual changes.
The new schedule does not affect the
cases where a minimum charge of 5
cents a head has already been allowed,
or an especially low rate has been fixed
on account of some local conditions. In
most cases the revised fee will mean a
reduction of about 1 cent a head. In
fixing rates for grazing different kinds
of stock, local conditions, the effect of
grazing by different kinds of stock on
forest growth, the demand for the use
of the range by the owners of stock, the
needs of the homesteader, and the profits
of business have all been taken Into con
sideration. SPREADING ROAD DOCTRINE
Judge Scott Talks for Good High
ways in Sherman County.
GRASS VALLEY. Or., Oct. 18. (Special.)
J. H. Scott, of Salem, president of the
Oregon Good Roads Association, delivered
addresses before a large and appreciative
audience at Wasco and Grass Valley, dur
ing the past week. Judge Scott spoke at
Wasco on Thursday night, October 15, on
the plans of the association for the bet
terment of the public highways, and
aroused considerable interest in the en
terprise among the residents of that place.
As a result of the meeting, a good roads
league was formed, with the following of
ficers: President. Eugene Calvin; vice
president, J. P. Jebs; secretary. Dr. W.
N. Morse; treasurer. A. C. Atwood.
At the meeting held here on Friday last
an association similar to that formed at
Wasco was organized and the following
officers elected: President, C. A. Buck
ley; secretary, Roy J. Baker; treasurer,
J. B. Boonhill. A feature of the meeting
was the address of Judge Scott, outlining
the plans of the Good Roads Association
and In which he also advocated the en
actment of laws for a state appropriation
for roads and for a State or County High
way Commission. He also expressed him
self in favor of the employment of con
vict labor in the construction of roads.
Judge Scott will address a meeting at
Condon tomorrow.
Plan Alfalfa Meal Plant.
NORTH YAKIMA. Wash., Oct. 18.
(Special.) William Dougherty and C. M.
Murphy, of Portland, are planning the
establishment of an alfalfa meal plant at
Wapato with a capacity of 50 tons every

greater than they can supply with the
present capacity
Industry Can Be Prosecuted More
Cheaply Here Than Elsewhere,
So T. H. Schrlbner Tells
Albany Clubmen.
ALBANY, Or., Oct. 18. (Special.)
"Oregon is the best dairy country in
the world." was the statement of T.
H. Schrlbner, president of the State
Dairymen's Association of Wisconsin,
speaking before the Albany Commercial
Club. Schribner is owner and breeder of
the cow which won first prize at the St.
Louis Exposition, and is an author
ity of National reputation on dairying
topics. J. W. Bailey, Oregon State
Dairy and Food Commissioner, accom
panied Schribner, and also spoke be
fore the club.
"Dairying can be carried on here
In the Willamette Valley more cheaply
than anywhere else In the country,"
said Mr. Schribner. "The mild cli
mate here provides green feed almosc
all the year, and this is responsible
for the small expenditure required in
dairying.. Because of the favorable cli
matic conditions, farmers here are not
required to house their stock so many
months as In some states. Dairying
can be conducted bo cheaply and prof
itably in Oregon that Instead of $17,
000,000, as at present, there should be
$70,000,000 Invested in that Industry in
this state."
A great feature of dairying In this
state should be the production of high
grade stock, Mr. Schrlbner said. There
is a big demand now from the Orient
for high-grade stock, and this Is an
Important item to the Pacific Coast
dairyman. The Japanese are keenly
alive to the merits of good American
stock, he stated, and every year Orl
encal companies export a large number
of first-class stock to use for breeding
on their stock farms. Their buyers
come to this country and are forced
to go to Michigan, Wisconsin or even
to New York, to get the class of stock
they desire. They pay freight on the-n
across the continent, and, the speaker
said this field offered big possibilities
for the production of fine stock on this
Coast, where they can be raised more
cheaply and can be secured more ad
vantageously by the buyers of the
Orient.
So great are the dairying possibili
ties of the Willamette Valley, Mr.
Schrlbner said, that hundreds of East
ern people will come here In the next
few years to engage expressly in that
industry.
APPLES FOR GREAT FAIR
Lane County to Make (Exhibit at
Seattle.
EUGENE, Or., Oct. 18. (Special.) Lane
County will make a special exhibit of Its
applea at the Alaska-Yukon Fair. County
Fruit Inspector J. Beebe reports good suc
cess In the undertaking.
Fruitgrowers who have given special at
tention to apple-raising in this section of
the Valley have secured fine results, and
Lane County hopes to make a showing
that will encourage fruitraisers to make
the apple industry a more Important one
here than it has been in the past. There
have not, up to this point, been enough
growers In any locality to make a repu
tation for Lane County apples. Splendid
apple land can be purchased at from $25
to 9100 an acre, depending upon the lo
cation. Even cheaper lands can be secured at
a distance of 6 to 20 miles from Eugene.

ers will be present. Another Important
feature of the meeting will be the con
sideration of the educational Interests of
the farmers.
Exhibits and lectures will be given by
prominent speakers, which will . Include
everything from elementary agriculture to
the consideration of fine arts.
