One of the

. 1 1 generation of young men
raised In the country, with farm life.
CXOUUS Of this f ! frnm h
farms to the cities and larger towns
Is very noticeable. There is no long
mnany con,entment. or at least very
uu lIIU ,mrl 0 lne young men
with country life. Mr. Demott falls
to see Just why this is, but recognizes
the fact.
Small farming In New Jersey is
still very profitable whnn m,,i.,M,i
as It should be, by those who under
stand It. Nevertheless, thero Is n
great deal of abandoned land, and
the tendency is more and more that
way. To be sure the lnmis
exhausted, but it is often and easily
demonstrated that a year or two of
faithful application of work and fer
tilizers restores its condition and
makes It profitable At tim oo,n
time there Is no lnmi n n V wh orn 1 n
New Jersey that is profitable unless
fertilizers are systematically ml
persistently used.
flrst-class markets is nnn fnntnr In
making Jersey farming profitable.
Mr. Demott is confident that most
of the young men who go to the cities
from the farms mako a grievous error
in so doing.

Money In Cheap Land.
Mr. Demott says that land from
which good money can be made by
those who understand small fn
and work hard and stick to it, can bo
bought for as low as nr. wr nrpp
but it has to bo "bnllt up" after pur-
uimsmg. unen tno big slump In land
values took place about 10 years ago,
the Jersey farms at once suffered
trom the deterioration ot neglect, and
they have been neglected ever since
from the conviction that they were
not worth reclaiming. Yet nothing
could be further trom the truth.
Mr. Demott met and visited with
friends who rent 100 acres of land
last year sold from It $7,700 worth or
products, largely chickens, ducks.
geese and eggs. They keep 15 good
cows, 20 hogs, 350 ducks, CO geese
and 700 hens. From the ducks they
sold 0,000 young ducks for tho city
markets, and from the hens K00 eggB
daily. The owner and the tenants
of the land divide equally tho ex
penses and profits.
Fruit In a Decline.
Mr. Demott remarked with great
regret the decline in fruit raising,
especially in peaches. The San Jose
scale has destioyed hundreds of
peach orchards and hundreds of
thousands of trees. As yet no ade
quate remedy I'ot the ccale hns been
tound.
Small Dealers Obliterated.
Mr Demutt noted with extreme re-
giet and curiosity that thero are no
longer any gnall wheelwrights, shoe
makers, .blacksmiths and other artl-
&uu. -doing business for themselves.
.and on a small scale. With the small
merchant, they have been obliterated
by absorption Into large concerns
the survival, perhaps not of the fit
test, but of the brawn and aggres
siveness of capita).
Southern Notes.
.Mr. Demott visited Washington, D.
C, ind parts of Virginia and North
Carolina en route home. Of course
he took in all the features of Inter
est at Washington, with wincn an
travelers and reading peopli- are la-
mlllar.
Being a Northerner, with a North
western transplanting, Mr. Demon
observed at once upon crossing the
Potomac, the sharpness with wincn
the color line is drawn beparate
railway compartments, and separate
wnlthiL' rooms In Uie depots, and
other evidences of radical social in
equality very emphatic to a compar
ntivo ktranwr in the South.
Throughout Virginia and North
Carolina tho average price per day
paid for colored labor Is 75 cents,
and the laborer "finds" himself.
Colored women do housework for $1
per week.
Tobacco, peanuts and sweet pota
toes are the staple crops of that re
gion while the dependence vof the
peop'le laborers, merchants, land
owners and everybody else for
ieady money Is on the tobacco crop.
As a traveling man put it, "There
iBn't a dollar in cash in tho country
except following the marketing of to
bacco." Cash grows scarcer and
scarcer In a steady ratio following
each tobacco crop, until the great
bulk or business is done on credit
for tho fow months preceding tho
harvest of the next crop of tobacco.
Southwest Notes,
In New Mexico and Arizona very
many of the best track hands tn tho
employ of tho railroads aro full-blood
Indians, They aro Infinitely more re
liable than tho Mexicans both for
industry and sobriety.
The prevailing livestock in tho
scmi-arld regions Is goats, sfieop and
uurrus.
The tulo lands of Central Califor
nia aro very Interesting. It is
oougnt in tho raw from tho govern
mem tne buyers lease tho land
to Chinese, giving them nil of the
first crop lalsed. one-half of the sec
ond crop and one-third of tho third
crop, in return the Chinamen dyko,
ditch and drain the land and cut
down and root out the tulles.
Fairly Prolific Family.
Mr. Demott incidentally mention
ed attending a family reunion ot tho
oescenuants or his great-grandfather.
His father's mother was a Smith and
was one of 17 children, nil of whom
grew to manhood and womanhood
married and all had children. Today
tho descendants of Mr. Domett's nn.
ternal grandmother and her brothers
and sisters number 0,000 people. Tho
annual reunion is held at Toapack

The people of Pendleton aro re
spcctfully asked to fully investigate
Trib. the world's greatest euro for tho
liquor and tobacco habits, and to any'
one In need of a cure wo say truth
fully, Trib Is an honest, posltlvo cure,
You do not uso Trib In your coffee;

these habits the samo as you would

J. W. Dauglierty writes on May 14,
1&03: To whom It may concern:
I wish to say I completed a euro with
Trib In February, and havo had no
desire to drink since It will also cure
the tobacco habit. I had a harder
time to learn to smoke after taking
Trib than when I first learned to
smoke. I am quite well known In
Baker City, I.a Qrando, Bumpier and
Pendleton and anyone wishing to stop
using either liquor or tobacco, I would
tecommend thein to take Trib,
