Nov. 29. iSpecial.) A deal which means the subdivision of one of Unn County's largest ranches and the bringing of 260 people to this county next Spring was consummated here last evening when North Dakota people pur chased the old Fayne ranch of MOO acrea four miles southeast of Iehanon. Mm. H R Payne made the transfer, and the purchasers are Charles C. Mc.Mullen and H R. Montgomery, of Grand Forks. N. D.. and M. R. DeLong. who recently came to this city from Grand Forks.

Forty-six ten-acre tracts have been laid out, with roadways between every two tracts, thus giving each tract a street on one side. The remainder of the lfl0 acres is covered with timber and Is not vet subdivided. The land is on Ll?M.1':,:?Lth,Tropo,"!d' Aib"-Bro"- In view of the number of new residents It will bring to Linn County, this deal is one of the most important transfers com pleted here this year.

NOUTH YAKIMA, Wash., Nov. 29. (Special.) Forty Individual power plants are In operation for irrigation purposes on the Columbia River be tween Kennewkk and White Bluffs, an-ordinff to W. L. Stelnweg, of this rlty, president of the KIrst National Bank, who J'as Just returned from trip to the l"iper Columbia, made In rompany of Governor Mead. General Aehton. of Taroma. and Judge Burke 'nd Judge Hanford. of Seattle. Mr. titeiuweg was unable to ascertain the total of the acreage under cultlva lion through these Individual plants, but ays that everywhere along; the banks of the river may be seen baled hay awaiting shipment to market. At one plare In Franklin County, where J. V. Nagle Is irrigating SO acres by a plant put in slightly over a year ago, he found that Mr. Nagle had made a net profit of Hsoo from the melons, vege tables and such things grown on his arreage. In addition to the plants owned by individual horticulturists, there are two systems at White Bluffs supplying wa ter to thousands of acres each, and the TIanford system, which will irrigate 30.000 acres when developed. White Bluffs, which had no existence as a town midyear of 190". already h a nank. business houses, a newspaper and a thriving population, rapidly ap proarhlng- the l'00 mark. Mr. Stein weg predicts that the construction of railroad lines between Portland and Kennewli k and development of a sim ilar kind now In progress above Ken newh k will mean a wonderful growth to the river within the next few years. HUBBARD WILL ADVERTISE Old Valley Town Proposes to Make Resources Known to World. HL'BBARD. Or.. Nov. 29. (Special.) The business men of Hubbard are retting up a neat folder setting fortb the resources and business and agricul tural opportunities of Hubbard and vicinity. There is some talk of organ izing a push club to further the inter ests of the community. Nothing of this kind has ever been attempted in Hub bard before, and all the public knows of the many good things Hubbard has in store I what was learned by per sonal observation. In spite of thi la.-k of advertising, properly has been steadily advancing, and with a little effort, wonderful strides can be made in the growth and Uevelopment of the community. Hubbard is listed among the older towns of the Willamette Valley, and Nature haa lavished Us primitive wealth In great profusion. From this storehouse the aettlera have drawn as time and necessity demanded. I-ately. a new regime has been inaugurated, a more Intensive use of Nature's wealth Is demanded, and the wheels of prog ress will rotate more rapidly, and tha -fiances are that the whirr of their ro tating will be heard at a greater dls-lam-e. YAKIMA SETTLERS UNITE Propose to Market Fruit Hereafter on Co-oporaile Plan. NORTH YAKIMA. Wash., Nov. IP. i Special.) Dissatisfaction with prices pitd to ranchers by commission houses here handling- their fruit this season, has led to atepa for the formation of a po-operative fruitgrowers' association si-ni'ar to those now In existence at Hood River and Wenatrhee. t'r. Granville Lowther. owner of a Nob Hill ranch, la leading the move ment, t'nder the plan, it is proposed trtnt all grower ship their fruit through tha association, and that they take what prices oan be secured for their fruit when tt reaches the market A capable man will be hired to handle the fruit and attend to its shipment, and there will tie no endeavor to buy or sell any fruit excepting in the co operative way. Ranchers claim that this year they have not received as good prices for their fruit from the commission men as r.ae been paid In other fruitgrowing districts, while the Yakima article com mands on the market u good prices ae any otbsr cUsttuvt.

NEEDS MANY SPUDS cfiehalis County Cannot Grow Enough for Cities. rich in productive soil All farm Products Thrive and Ixged-Off Lands Have Ready Sale for Agricultural Purposes. Vegetables Grow Large. MONTESANO, Wash. Nov. 29. (Spe cial.) In view of the fact that the timber supply is fast disappearing, and w-lth it the lumber business, the great est present industry of Chehalls Cpun ty. the people are more and more turn ing their attention to the soil and its kindred industries. Chehalis is one of the richest coun ties In the State of Washington in the diversity of its agricultural resources, extending from the open prairies in the eastern end to the slopes of the Pacific at the west, and from the foot hills of the Olympic Mountains on the north to fertile valleys of the rivers In the southern portion. It is in this wide diversity of agricultural resources that this county has so marked an advan tage over other sections of the state, where only a limited number of staple crops can be cultivated with any cer tainty. Within the boundaries of this county there exisis almost every vari ety of sou, the most perfect climatic conditions, the certainty of sufficient natural moisture and all the other fac tors necessary to the proper growth and maturity of staple farm products. the activity in this direction is no ticeable in the fact that more logged- off lands are being sold than ever be fore by the real estate men of this sec tion; farms and small garden ' tracts also bringing fancy prices. Ten acres recently sold for $4000. Many of the ranches and small tracts of this county nave come into the possession of men who believe In scientific farming. The soil of this locality seems pe culiarly adapted to the growth of pota toes. By a little extra care and atten tion, the yield may be made unusuallv large and the profit greater than from any other vegetable-or grain. An ordi nary crop is atout 400 bushels, al though the ranch of Mouncelr Bros., at Patsop, produced this year 400 sacks per acre, according to a reliable source. The famers of this section are blessed with a ready market right at their door. The cities of Aberdeen and Ho qulam take everything that can be raised, and then have to ship in from outside points a large part of their sup plies. At least two-thirds of the pota toes used are shipped In from Yakima. It has been claimed by competent au thorities that if all the available land were put into potaotes It would not supply the demand of the cities. With the extending of the electric line of the Grays Harbor Flectric Com pany to the eastern part of the county, which is said upon good authority will be soon as the survey is made, this market will be much easier of access.

The new railway station of the Spokane, Portland & Seattle Railway, is expected to be ready for occupancy in about SO days. The dimensions are 30x115 feet, and it is two stories high. The upper part is of stucco work, and the lower part of brick. The center of the build ing will tie occupied by the ticket and express offices, the waiting-rooms are on tha south side facing the railroad bridge over the Columbia, the baggage-room is at the north end. Cement walks surround the station on all sides, and above these walks are wide porch roofs. The station Is located in a "Y," in a block bounded by Tenth. Kleventh. Lincoln and Moore streets. The Northern Pacific trains from the Sound will come in on the west side, and the North Bank Road trains will come In on the east side. The coat of the station will be $13,000. 1 .' i building of its cannery at Montesan'o has been an important factor in th development of the farming Industry. Already many acres have been planted to small fruits and berries, the cannery taking all such crops and paying the market price for them. It Is stated by the officials of the association that many inquiries are coming to them re gardlng the best kind of fruits or ber ries to cultivate, and nurserymen report a brisk demand for such trees and shrubs. The Evergreen blackberry is the best producer, and will grow with small care or attention. Strawberries are also an almost sure crop, and grow in abundance and to enormous sizes. The following are some figures on the average yield per acre of the various crops raised here: Hay 4 tons, wheat 40 bushels, oats TO bushels, barley 60 bushels, peas 50 bushels, rye 40 , bush els, potatoes 400 to S00 bushels, car rots 760 bushels, parsnips 550 bushels, beets 1000 bushels, rutabagas 1150 bushels, turnips 1000 bushels. mere nave been numerous Instances of extra large specimens of various vegetables, turnips and beets weighing as high as 20 and 22 pounds, cabbages 40 to 50 pounds, and potatoes as high as 34 pounds. As a dairy country this county is the equal of any. Pasture Is good milk producing for nine months of the year. r rom a few scrub cattle that produced barely enough to supply home needs, there has grown up an Industry that Is one or the leaning ones of the county. vi me rancnes now nave run blood and best graded cattle, while the farmers are taking care of their stock in a scientific manner. One of these recently refused 11000 for five cows. Another rancher cleared $76 year per head. CELERY IS HEAVY CR.0P North Yakima Gardener Makes $1500 lo $2000 Off One Acre NORTH YAKIMA. Wash.. Nov. 28. (Spe cial.) John Sandmeyer. a marketgardener here, will make from $1500 to J2OU0 off an acre of celery this year. It had been gen erally conceded, that the moist bottom land of the Sound presented the best field for profitable celery culture until this year, when Mr. Sandmeyer got the crop by taking over some land leased to two Japs. With an acre producing 800 dozen head, selling at 30 cents a dozen at the lowest. Mr. Sandmeyer thinks he will plant the field to this crop another sea son. The celery Is excellent in size and quality and finds a ready market, dis placing the Seattle and Tacoma article in the local groceries. RUN MILL NIGHT AND DAY C. A.

According to law, these companies cannot aicn ud their entire tracts, the unit under the Government irrigation system being 160 acres, and the companies either nave to stay out of the project or else sell their land. The uovernment win noi supyiy water to the land monopolists In order to increase the vane of their holdings prior to sale. This difficulty, however, is not likciy to prove fatal to the project, and' it is reported on reliable authority mat tne land companies are arranging to put their property on the market. Engineer Newell declares that the pro ject is one of the best, from an engineer ine standDOint. in the Northwest. "It is a splendid project," said Mr. New ell, "and it presents no difficult engineer ing. The Government will start construc tion work just as soon as the ranchers and other landowners sign up. 1 believe that there is a great change in public sentiment now and that the great major ity of the people want the Government system Installed.

WALNUT Wllilj GET TREES STARTED, THEX CLEAR LA.ND. Goats to Do Large Part of Clearing and Trees Will Later Bo Grafted and Improved. ALBANY, Or., Nov. 29. (Special.) The largest and most unique walnut orchard in the State of Oregon is be ing planted in Lincoln County by C. M. Giddings, of Albany. Giddlngs has acquired large tracts of land in the Cpast Range from the owners of the old Corvallis and Yaquina Bay Wagon Road grant, and is planning the utiliza tion of 320 acres in walnut culture. Giddings is not preparing the whole tract for his orchard, for this would require an enormous expense. The land is yet covered with fern and stumps and in many places underbrush and, while regarded as the equal of any land in the state for fruit and nut culture, it is yet virgin soil and has never been improved. At intervals of 60 feet throughout the. whole tract of 320 acres Giddings is clearing and preparing a space of ground four feet square. In this space he plants a tree and then surrounds the space with a solid fence. When the trees are all planted and the fences around them are all erected he will turn goats Into the tract to clear the land. When the trees become large enough they will be grafted to produce tho finest kinds of walnuts, and when the land is cleared his trees will be of good Mze and he can remove the fences which protected them from the goats. Instead of waiting until his tract is all cleared before planting the trees and then using: the land exclusively for thet purpose, he will raise goats, which is a profitable venture, and at the same time will have his trees rapid ly maturing -while the land Is being cleared. This plan is, of course, in the nature of an experiment, but Giddings has carefully considered the matter and be lieves he has evolved a fine scheme. Giddings is a careful Investor who has MAN HASNEWPLAN WATER DRINKERS SELDOM HAVE RHEUMATISM Also Tells of Splendid Prescription for Oregonian Readers to Make Up.
