Stantteld, Or., Oct. 11 A day or two
ago, accompanied by James Kyle,
mayor of Stanfleld. J rode over the Stan-
fleld project. Wo drov out rt past
a. L. -Kurd's "Good jmcv peaen ana
appl orchard. Vrom tnr wo drov to
Mii.a r mnnr'i tract. Sir. Barager
famini jhnnt inn acre. Ha hu 40
t acrM In orchard and, runa dairy. B
cam In tbo spring of 10 and la one
of tls first settlor on tbo project
. Wa next drove, to the farm of Thora
aa Richards. Mr. : Riohards la building
up a splendid Holateln herd. Recently
he went aaat and purchased several
carloads of Holstelns for himself and
soma of hla neighbor. There have been
nine carload . of Holsteln , cattle
': brought Into Stanfleld In the past two
year, ' 1 . ' ' ',., ,
From !Ji"r, Richard's place wo drov
to the farm of Mr. Wallace who has
lnterplantod hla fruit treea with water
melons and other crops. Mr. Wallace la
doing1 something1 that would aoive tn
( question of keeping the boy on the farm
if mora universally adopted.? Bo i ba
bought a lo acre tract for hi 17 year
old bar. He and hi son farm it to
gether. A.U money mad xrom goes
toward tho payment of th place. With
in a. few yean it will ba paid for and
tho boy will hay a valuable property
just at the urn n want . to sao
Ush a home for himself. :
From Wallace's wo drove abora the
ditch and looked over tho Paradise pro
JecL "There la ao reason," said MR
Kyle, "why the government should not
take up this Paradise project The 47.
000 acres In this project will make
homes for hundreds of settlers and the
water used on this project will drain
through Stage . Gulch and Despaln's
Gulch Into tho Cold springs reservoir,
thus furnishing plenty of water at all
times for th Umatilla project. Much of
the land on tho Padarlso project la now
In rye or In summer fallow. It can be
; hnnirht. fnr tiS an acre or lass.'
We next dror to the Fred Pat
ranch. This ranch, In which I have an
interest" said Mr. Kyle, "1 largely
owned by Fred Page of Page it Bon, at
Portland. . Z was the first manager of
tho ranch. It consists of 160 acres, 77
acres being In pears, peaches and apple.
- The pears are four years old and the
apples are two years old. We put In
Wlnesaps, Jonathans and Arkansas
Blacks, and tho rest of the place In
. alfalfa. We get froth seven to sight
' tuns of alfalfa to the acre each season
cutting It three or four times a, year.
it takes about tare acre zee, ox water
" to the acre to Irrigate It",
From tho Pag orchard we want to
. tho Sunrise farm owned by th Has el
Investment company, Dr. O. EL Watts
of Portland being the principal owner.
The farm consists of 100 acres, 1(0 of
which are in alfalfa, Twenty acres are
planted to Wlnesap and Jonathan aD
pies which are three and a half years
Una. The manager took u all over th
place. W went first to th chicken
' yard where ther ax over 1000 White
' Leghorns. " 'v '
Chickens XalseA With auooess,
"W sent for 1200 young chickens
paying 13 WJ cents apiece for them,"
, said the manager. "We recently shipped
10 docen young cockerels to Pendleton
where we got f 4 a dosen for them. W
will raise our own chickens next year
: as we have two Incubators of 400 egg
capacity. We also raise our own ducks."
From th poultry . house w went to
th ' swine- yard -where ther ar '110
Duroo hogs. "This is on of the m6st
prof itable . parts of our ranoh." said
th manager. "The hog and alfalfa na
turally go together and both fit In like
a hand in one's glove with the dairy
business. W have 61 Holstelns. We sep-
MftlV VHI -JbI4t UJ), iuvw l
to - Kermiston. W feed ' th skimmed
mine to th pigs and tb ealves. Our
Holsteln heifers oame from Illinois and
cost us about $7S eaeh, laid down."
, W went next to O. Ik Dun-ting's
frm. una, at tha haat inmnlM ff what
lrt addition to his other crops, has a
number of stands of beea "My bees

Dunning. "In an alfalfa or clovercoun
; try bees do wonderfully well as there
1 so much material from Which to
max honey. T. J. Bartnger has 150
stands of bees and last year be made,
between 1800 and 1900 from tarns." ..
At Fred- Heath's plac. w found a
79 acre farm, a considerable part of It
set ' to alfalfa,, with , some acreage In
strawberries and asparagus, . both of
which com on th market vary early
la .this district.
From Mr. Beath's plac w went to
Peach Bill farm, owned by Mr. R,, M.
Tnttl of Portland. Sidney Archer,, the
resident manager, took us over the
place, Th owner of Peach Hill farm
believe in diversified farming and on
- tho -100 acre which h owns be has
. a hard of Holstelns, soma Duroo Jersey
red hogs, an orchard, and ha also
..raise considerable corn and alfalfa.
' Th ditch is two miles long and drains
land which had previously been over-
i tlnwrmA anil ah wfifM, at 3aYA jmw. . a
cat-toll wag la evidence. The district
was bonded for t34,O0O and a ditch
two miles long was put in. On this
overflowed land they ar raisins; - th
finest kind of crops, particularly corn,
From Peach Hill farm w went to
George C Coe's ranch. Mr. Coe 1 a aon
f Dr. H. W. Coe, on of th originators
of th Btanfleld project W went over
, his ranch very thoroughly. Mr. Co Is
a college man. Ha got on thing at col
lego hot In th curriculum; which has
been one or th chief factors In his
success and that Is, a capable wlf who
is helping him make hi farm . a suc
cess. We stopped in a splendid field of
corn and broke off ears of corn from
it to it jncnoa ions wmon nan . rrom
JO to 12 rows of corn to th ear, tb
. coo oeing very, smaiL , ,
" At Tho Coe ataaoh,
