Arid Land H-J rlcoltare The total hog prop for Oregon during lha present year Is estimated by experts it (60,000 porkers. It Is claimed by those Interested In the livestock Indus try that with proper packing bouse fa cilities and a local market that could stand the strain, the-number of hogs grown annually In Oregon could be in creased almost without effort to 1.000,- ' ' Experiments In dry-land alfalfa are being made by Johnston Brothers and C , Baich. In Wasco County; and If they are crowned with the success that is sold to now seem Indicated it is ex pected that hogs will in future be one of the main, products of that section of Oregon, fully 150,000 being raised. Other took will flourish similarly, although not In the same ratio. The O. K. & N. Company furnished the seed for these experiments which were urged upon the farmers by R. B. Miller, general freight agent for that railroad. To Seed Sand and. In Wasco County it is claimed there Is a vast amount of rolling sagebrush land which Is In such a position as to be permanently removed from the possi bility of artificial Irrigation. This land It Is proposed to turn Into alfalfa beds Where hogs can feed during t'.ie spring and summer. In its present state the land Is worthless, there not being suf ficient vegetation to sustain life in cayuse ponies. The tests are being made on the highest possible ground and un der the most unfavorable conditions in order to fully test the matter. Much of the Wasco County land . is very fertile and rich In wheat produc tion, but a portion of nearly every farm extends into the arid and sandy hills. After pasturing hogs on the hill land alfalfa, until wheat harvest Is over, it is proposed .to turn them upon the stub ble In order" that they may harden their flesh and "top off," as the pork raiser calls. It, on the wheat which the passing header has failed to pick up. Crop Outlook Exoellent. Parties who have recently been through the Wasco district claim that winter wheat has assumed a splendid stand and crop indications are excellent. Only a few fields show bald spots and stock of all kinds Is reported as being In fine condition, having wintered well despite the unusual length of time snow lay Upon the ranges. Johnston Brothers and Raich ' are ex perimenting alth range cattle, using registered Hereford bulls at the head of their herds and have estimated that calves are showing 60 per cent better this season than ever before. Manager Hualer of the White Eagle Flour Mills, at Dufur, is feeding 246 head of hogs for W. B. Curts of The Dalles, bran and shorts being used and a certain sum per pound being paid the miller for weight gained. These hogs are bringing 7 cents per pound In the open market and enabling the feeder to realise, he claims, at least '$20 per ton for bran and shorts fed. Tew Bomeaeekara in Wasoo. Portland railroad officials say there are few homeseekers going Into Wasco County because of all available land ber lug already owned,, having been taken up years ago. Those, who have farms there. It is said, .are not seeking sales, and as a result the settler movement into that district has. been less than to any other part of the state. A great deal of intercut is being taken in Wasco County ana other Interior dis tricts in the avowed Intention of the Swift Packing Company to locate a plain In the Pacific Northwest, and railroad companies and business men of Port land are receiving many requests to do all in their power to bring thut plant to this city. ;MjkADb: IS LOOKING AT ' l..j)jiiljmu,'ili.iiillj),'!i 1 1,1 (:. r- CVv - " Vf v : I 1 ' ' of Rissl; TOK1CL' May l.the recent aggressive attitude of Rpssla toward Man churia, In violation of her previously declared intentions, raised a storm of indignation in Japan.
