Pendleton, April 4. That wheatrals-
ers of Umatilla county can raise sugar
beets upon their land Instead of wast
ing a season by summer fallowing is
declared by Sibbolov, superintendent of
the sugar factory at La Grande.
If the Ideas of Mr. Sibbolov are cor
rect farmers are meeting with a loss
tnat is wiiony unnecessary. He says
that sucar beets mav be raised durinar
the summer and the crop harvested and
tne land gotten Into shaco for wheat
raising in tne ran. .by sucn a course
the land may be worked every year,
and he says the soil will , be enriched
ratner tnan depleted by the extra crop,
for the reason that tha beets take dif
ferent substances from - the soil than
a oh s a wneat crop.
xne land lying near the root hills in
this county Is especially adanted to
sugar beet raising, according to the La
u ramie man, ana it is expected mat
tha farmers will soon be able to make
good money from wheat land that is al
lowed to lie idle eviry other season.

MANNING OPINION
CALLED BAD LAW
Attorney-General Crawford and Dla
trlct Attorney Manning are not la ao
cord on the question as to. whether local
option can be voted on In precinct 10, -comprising
the southern half of Monta
vllla. Before the new division of pre- .
clncts was made this territory was) a
portion of Precinct 74. and No. 74 went
dry at the last election. District Attor
ney Manning held, in response to re
quest for an opinion by County Clerk'
Fields, that the question would nave to
be submitted to tha whola tarrltorv
formerly comprised in 74.
The attorney-general points to another
provision of tha local option law, whlon.
forbids the submission of the thirst
question to any portion of a preclnot
without submitting It to the entire pre--.
clncL Old precinct 74 tnoludee a por
tion of new precinct IS, outside of the -'
city, and for thla reason the attorney,
general concludes that a vote Is forbid
den In the old territory of 74. For, if .
this were done, a portion of IS might
be voted wet and a portion of It dry.
which the law expressly aays cannot be
done.
County Clerk Fields la In doubt what
he should do. Apparently It Is a case of
confliot In the law that was not fore- .
seen by the makers of the local option
