THE LESSONS OF THE YEAR.
It htrilccs us thnt n useful subject for
tho farmers of Oregon to discuss
through tho columns of this paper is
to consider tho looses of tho year, caus
ed by delay In harvesting tho crop,
and apeak plainly of the valuo of tho
different harvesting machines and
their approved uses among our farmers.
Many denounce the headers as cause
of all tho loss, becauso the timo lost
waiting for thoin could liavo saved tho
crop if other machinery had been at
hand. Jy this time experience should
have determined tho relative valuo of
various harvesters and shown tho good
or ill oll'ects of their uso. For Instance,
Jt is a vexed question to decide wheth
er tho header really causes tho ground
to become foul. Many say it does, and
others as stoutly ak-vtt that they use
tho header and preserve their ground
clean, or comparatively o. We aro
inclined to believe that waiting for
weather in which tho header could bo
used has caused loss that would have
been avoided if other machinery could
have beon used at the time when the
header was not available.
Wo confess to huvo entertained a
f.ar (hut Oregon farmers have gone
wild In tho purchase of agricultural
nmchlnory at times, but late experience
warrants tho conclusion thnt one fault
of tho Into harvest was tho need of
more machinery than the farmers had
at their command. No doubt tho next

Now, wo hereby ouaiiantek ourai?onts

Oliver has threatonod us ovor and ovor again

as yot ho has not carried out his threats, and
