WHAT IT IS AND
HOW IT HELPS.
The Finest Piece or Winter Wheat In
the County This Year Was Plant
ed After That Most Excellent Plan
Much Used In Kansas.
The 10 acres ot winter wheat a mile
and a hajf from town, planted and
treated by the. "Campbell 8ystera."'.ls
said to be the finest piece of wheat
In Umatilla county.
It ts on the land ot William
O Brlen, who planted It and Is de
termined to Klve the system n thor
ough trial. 3ro is Inclined to think
that the trial part of It Is over, and
that what remains Is to watch the
development of the crop and reap' a
tremendous yield. At the present
time the wheat, which is Red Chaff,
stands frpm 10 inches to a foot high,
is a deep green and absolutely thrifty
and TTealthy.
His preparation of the ground was
by the following method:
Immediately after harvest last year
he plowed the ground thoroughly and
immediately thereafter went over the
ground with a float or clod smaBher
of the usual pattern", after thoroughly
levellns the ground. Utter, as soon
as the -weeds -were up ho cut them
with a steel-bar weed cutter beneath
the surface and followed that by Im
mediately pulverlrlng with a slab
float which made dust of every clod
and also pressed down the earth. The
wheat was then drilled in eight-Inch
rows, the rows being perfectly
straight.
In the spring, when the wheat was
two Inches high, it was rolled to
mash down all clods and Inequalities
and also to press down the dirt. With
those crops which can be cultivated
later the pressing Is not done at alt,
and In any event is postponed until
cultivation ceases.
This Is the first experiment with
the "Campbell system" In this part
of the country. There arc larcc dis
tricts In Western Missouri, Kansas
and the Dakotas where it has been
used for a number of years, and
where the area in crop by this meth
od Is constantly increasing. The se
cret of the whole thing Is no secret
at all, but the recognition of the fact
that the most effectual mulching
ground can have for the retention of

Tens ot thousands of farmers in;
the regions mentioned aboTft haTe In'
the past 5vcn years demonstrated
this. Tho ground Is not fertilised by
this process, but on the other hand
Insects and mice arc not harbored,
and the system Is known to be a great
discourager of moles and gophers. It
Is much more effectually applied In
the corn fields and vineyards and
orchards, and In fact In the cultiva
tion of any kind of crop where the
rows of plants, trees or vines aro
farther apart, permitting tho working
of, the ground later In the season.
The bare fact that the ground Is
free from weeds Is no reason why
such frequent working of the ground
should not be dono that will keep the
surface a bed of dust, Tho necessity
of ceasing all cultivation when a cer
tain stage In the development of any
and all crops Is of course known to
every farmer.
JOHN GRIFFITH IN "MACQETH."
Large Audience Greets the Production
of the Favorite Old Traoedy.
Krazer's opera house was filled to
overflowing last night, with an ap
preciative audience, which was at
tracted by tho Irresistible charm of
ot the Shakespearean tragedy In splto
of the presence of Ellen M. Stone In
the city.
Whatever of lecal coloring lias
been thrown Into later plays, tho fact
remains that England's old master
yet holds the reins over tho hearts
of the world.
The rendition of "Macbeth" has
been going on nightly In some cor
ner of tho world, for three centuries,
yet It Is ever new. Jolm Griffith play
ed the leading role last night with
superb art. His support was also
strong, In every detail. As "Macbeth"
Griffith was especially strong. He Is
an actor of Intense powers. He Im
bued the spirit of his character and
was living in tho environment that
made "Macbeth" what ho was.
In the splendid climaxes of the
tragedy ho did not once relax his
power nor intensity. In tho banquet
scene In tho fourth act, where "Mac
beth" Is driven mad by the vision of
Banquo's ghost seated with tho com
pany, Griffith was superb. This Is the
most trying point In tho rendition of
"Macbeth," a point on which Edwin
Tlooth himself ,oftcn stumbled, and al
ways dreaded to pass. Griffith was
equal to the passage and was round
'y Applauded.
The company supporting Mr, Grif
fith was strong nnd able throughout.
The play was witnessed by an audi
ence of Shakespearean students in a
large degree, nnd "tho expression
from every one Is highly complimentary.
