The l.civy frost and freeze of
Sunday night caught the mrst of
the corn, grown for ensilage,
and it will mean considerable
damage. Authorities, however,
say that it will not particularly
injure tho feed qualities, al
though it minimizes it to some
extent, This will mean a little
better price for hay. Very few
silos havo been filled with corn.l
and there has been a larger
acreage than usuaULbla yeu.-.
There Is to be an important
meeting held at Corvallm, Ore
gon, on Saturday. Oct. 7. at 10
o'clock in which every farmer in
tho Willamette Valley is vitally
interested. It is the Lime Con
vention, called by State Grange
Master Spence and representa
tives of the Grange, Farmers'
Union, Kquity Societies and tax
payers, for the purpose of organ
izing the farmers of the Willam
ette Valley looking toward the
best means of procedure to pro
cure lime at a price within the
reach of farmers. That there is
a great need for lime on most
soils in the Willamette Valley is
beyond dispute. The only diffi
culty has been the price asked
by dealers, There is an abund
ance of limo tributary to the val
ley that can be obtained if legis
lative action is taken, This
meeting promises to he one of
the most important held for
many years in the valley. Al!
farmers should consider them,

Almost every man who has
clover has kept his second crop

tion. Even Judge Bagley har
vested nearly a half ton. Seed
this year, well cleaned, has been
going at around IS cents, and
there is good monev in it. There
appears to be an unlimited de
