This section of the county tia devoted principally to fruit raising, ana it waa an inspiration to the sneakers to see the trees laden with email fruits, while boxes of ripe strawberries' were- aaowa-i tnem. rruii was discussed in all lta phases. From here the, train- went to Weston, where It stopped for an hour, and later to the towns of Athena. . and Adams, where the finest wheat fields- in the , world are found. . Wheat Misers turned out to give tbrea cheera and they were Indeed proud to show the thousands of . acres or una growing- grain, vv The Way to Stop WW':1 . Umatilla county has - a soil and rainfall that Justifies a , family upon every 160 acres of tha land bow used only for wheat. It la declared. Annual cropa may be raised with ease If - the right methods are but used and the present system of summer fallowing Is a monstrous economic waste. - In tha course of time the 'Supply of nitrogen In the soil will become depleted If wheat raising . is adhered to, and the : farmers of the county will be forced 10 take tip diversified farming aa they did in western Oregon. , .. This Is the substance of the things that were told the people of this city and the surrounding country by Dr. James Withycombe and his associates from tha Oregon Agricultural college faculty. - similar thlnga ara being told the farmers of 'eastern Oregon at all the points where the O. R. A N demon- . stration train -baa. been stopping. - H Tha, Outlook for Umatilla. - Talking -upon the subject ofv wheat raising, .. Withycomb held that with - every succeeding wheat crop the supply of - nitrogen in Umatilla, county's soli : was being made less, and that In time )t cannot but become exhausted. When . that time comes, as It did soma years ago in tha Willamette vs,uey, the farm- era of this section Wfll have to turn their attention to'dry farming methods, and when they do they will make more money than they do now and the lands will greatly increase In value. . . Dr. Withycombe paid ft. high tribute ; to tha prosperity of Umatilla county and ef Pendleton, and praised the peo , pie for the progress they have made. ' But continuing be declared that for : , tue most part they were In almost utter ignorance of the true possibilities of v this section snd declared that If the rounty was settled with the population bat -It can sustain Pendleton would . grow to a city of 50,00 people. With its vast fields of grain In dif ferent directions and ita thousands of acres of irrigated land, Umatilla county , Is but In Its Infancy, and In the next few years wonderful strides will be, . made in the way of improvement in all lines.
