' aMaBaaw . ;. . ' x ; ( f -f ' oaaaaaaaawa. ' os V-rf-W". k. t.- - i:GIs Bowers .t ' The Statesman a few days ago mentioned the fact that George Vick, newly chosen as director of the department of asriciilture of the Salem Chamber of Commerce, was making a study of. the walnut and filbert industries', with the idea of inducing the carrying on of a slogan campaign for walnuts and filberts, or walnuts or filberts, oaTevery farm; or every farm with suitable land - ; , , ; - . . - ! With the.idea of doing something cbnstruciive for the good of both the cities and towns and .of, the rufal sections of the Salem district . - ' 1 '' And doing the' thing that wpuld be the' best thing to do in thai regard'""' ' - t Picking out the very best bet. .. ; ;! ;n that the bestbet? r ' Consider the tonnage TfronTa few acres of walnut trees, or of filbert trees, in full bearing, and then spread that to all the farms of this section, and consider what an immense sum of money, they would bring each year new money, from long distances i 'And growing in volume year after year, for many gener ations for. thousands of years, for walnut and filbert trees never grow old, given good attention. But they grow big and constantly more fruitful. ; 'The idea of a slogan fof walnuts and filberts on all farms having suitable land for them is entrancing. It is a big idea. - But there are others. What does the reader say is our best :bet?,-:-- - --r ' " - i - For developing, rapidly our, dairying and live stock in dustries, nothing would do as much as the making of beet sugar, and this would mean the. conserving of the fertility of our lands, and the building up of their fertility. There could scarcely be any thing more desirable , . . i , And the inepme per acre would be great. It is possible to get 6000 to 10,000 pounds of sugar an acre a year ; more than from an acre of sugar cane.; Constant experiments and .im proved practices are-bringing up sugar beet tonnages and sucrose (sugar) content to the ton of beets. 'Also better prac tices are beingfound, for the feeding of beet tops and beet "pulp and molasses to live stock. ' Why. may we not have both campaigns at once the one for a beet sugar factory and the one for. walnuts and filberts! on every, farm with suitable soil? ''. . ; The following, from Facts About Sugar, the leading mag adne' of the'iridustry published in New York, gives some ideas of the present big yields of sugar beets:' f. SALT LAKE CITT, UUh, Dec 5. The sugar beet harvest is over in the Intcrmoontain country, and- some ot the factories are ah-eady 'closing downwhUe most of the others will have completed . their slicing campaigns by the end of the year. The Ogden plant of the Amalgamated Sugar company has already closed after a run in Mhtch.th dally slicing average was 1,400 tons, with a high record of L 1,5 2 5 tons. ' - . . . ' Some interesting reports of beet yields have been received. Presi dent TW7 P. Ellison ot the Paris and Weber Counties Canal company . said this week that the records of his company show an average of 14 tons Of beets' per acre for the entire acreage contracted.;? f ' ' At' IcCammon, in sou thern' Idaho,' Thortas Peterson : obtained 2$ 'tons of beets to 4he acre front a nine-acre field. Anothef grower lit' the same district cot an ajrexage. of 17.5 tons per acre-ttoni a . tract bri'ssps i-1 AUVJ t . r v The farmers "are now .nsy 'hauling beet pulp and molasses . for their sheep, and . catjtle the crop this year have had an "encouraging effect on the acreage outlook for 1926. in"; spite 6t the 'lowgrieea IntftXtTizw the feeling "among the farmers' U il-eported to be better, than i'twas a year ago. The matter of the contract was discussed at a meeting of the Mtab Farm Bnreati committee on .November 29, an'dtba opinion was pressed; iinformally. that - the contract would carry terms similar Wthi year's." Members of the committee said that the growers were well satisfied, on the whole, with the 1925- contract which parries a guaranteed minimum price of-96 a, ion, with additional iayments - depending ' on;the sugaricontent. of the' beets'and the. price obtained -jot the-sugar, ' aj?v : v;: I B1U Xor Breakf ait I r . ., - ' - New jYoar Statesman Friday : v .

This, is. tbepcar paradise, and we must let that fact be! known around, the world. t :i it wiU be several days .befprej.a thorough test is completed at the Miles mill of the fiber artificially ' dried at the state flax' plant. II the test results as expected.' it will v mean avlot-to-the slate flax plant, and the fiax industry of Oregon asVwholc' v Uu Thertf Is every appearance that the. artificially, dried flax Is as -strong as if it ha dbeen .drcld in the! bub, and the experts believe that, is thQ .requisite for twine and jliiread.'Even .though Us weave " ability, may. not be' as perfect as . evki 'dried fiber, great advance -w have been made if it is found i. entirely suitable for .thread and tino. " Tbe . winter retting and artificial drying of flax tor those - -? u:s3 would leate a scutcblai plant of smaller size and cost -as effi cient 'as one with more tanks and storage space an"d: machinery for there is always a dry season in this district, as well as a wet 83& son, and flax for the waiving of Cine linens can still be dried ,ln the sun, andrtirled for; other uses in the artificial dryers. . This would mean, too.- eruployoient in threshing, retting and scutching plants' the whole year through. It will bonecessary :tojhave number of such, plants, at Various points In thf valley, to keep the second linen mill supplied with raw materials. The state flax planet will not bo able to sHppIy much 'more than7 the Miles mill though'Its efficiency and the size of Its output win. be materially in creased if tbe experiments In win ter retting and artificial' drying ins prore successful. They will be carried on constantly. The penitentiary can carry on such ex periments at a very , muCti lower cost than such work could be done on the outside. - , This Js 'a very distinct advantage of n&tUg state flax plant, not much thytught of In the beginning there of this Industry, 1 t - 1 ,4 v I . it j .
